Chapter 507: Chapter 30: Windfall
The assessment time was approaching, and many people were walking out from the depths of the mountains, more than a hundred thousand in number. There were only about a thousand assessment tokens available, with many hidden in the dens of fierce beasts or in other concealed places that had not been found. It was estimated that only about seven to eight hundred tokens had been discovered.
One could imagine how many people had failed to obtain a token.
Many people walked out with their heads hanging low, only hoping that next year they might pass the assessment and deciding to let it go for this year.
âLook, isnât that Sikong Mo?â.
Many people muttered, pointing at Sikong Mo.
âPfft, no way? Is that really Sikong Mo?â.
Someone laughed out loud.
Sikong Mo had a big bump on his forehead and a footprint on his face, obviously having been beaten up brutally, looking utterly wretched.
Sikong Moâs expression was extremely gloomy. Now, it was difficult for him to steal other peopleâs assessment tokens, as those who had obtained them had probably already left early.
Thinking of how his ninety-seven tokens had been stolen, Sikong Mo felt a murderous impulse surge within him. Who was the despicable bastard who had ambushed him?
âBrother Sikong, your faceâ.
A cultivator reminded Sikong Mo.
Sikong Mo quickly took out a bronze mirror to look at himself.
âAhâŠâ. Following that, Sikong Moâs angry roar resounded, âBoy, I will find you, and when I do, Iâll crush you like a filthy insectâ.
Sikong Mo had never been so furious and frustrated. He had been ambushed, and he didnât even know by whom. If it were a face-to-face confrontation, Sikong Mo feared no one.
âŠ
At that moment, a loud voice came from upfront.
âEveryone, someone is selling assessment tokens over here, hurry and check it outâ.
âWhat? Selling assessment tokens? No way, does someone not want to become a disciple of Azure Cloud Sect?â.
Many people looked incredibly astonished.
However, soon after, dense crowds of cultivators ran towards the place where the tokens were being sold.
When they arrived there, they discovered that the area had already been swarmed by a sea of people.
âEveryone, what weâre selling is quality, assurance, and affordability. Big sale of assessment tokens, two thousand high-grade spiritual stones each, come buy them, come buy them, first come first served, no stock once sold outâ.
A cultivator dressed in black robes and wearing a mask was loudly vending, holding more than a dozen assessment tokens in both hands.
This fully armed individual concealing his true identity was naturally Lin Feng.
Selling assessment tokens in such a âshockingâ manner naturally required discretion; if the Azure Cloud Sect found out, they wouldnât just reclaim all the sold spiritual stones, they might also expel him from the sect.
âI want, I wantâ.
âŠ
Many people squeezed forward. Lin Feng originally wanted to price them at one thousand high-grade spiritual stones, but contemplating the large crowd from great forces, he raised the price to two thousand high-grade spiritual stones, which was exorbitant. Some might grit their teeth and stomp their feet, perhaps even deciding to buy despite not having enough stones and needing to borrow from others.
Lin Feng had underestimated the cultivatorsâ enthusiasm.
âEveryone move asideâ. A cold voice came as a burly young man pushed through the crowd towards Lin Feng.
âItâs Zhang Baoâ.
Many people exclaimed, hastily stepping back. The newcomer was formidable, being a strong presence in the Seventh Level of Martial King Realm.
âBoy, give me oneâ. Zhang Bao stared coldly at Lin Feng.
âSure, two thousand high-grade spiritual stones, fair and squareâ! Lin Feng said.
âAre you blind? How dare you ask your grandpa Zhang Bao for spiritual stones?â Zhang Bao said with a cold laugh.
Many people were puzzled, thinking that the boy selling assessment tokens was about to face a severe loss, considering Zhang Baoâs top-tier strength among the assessors.
The guy selling assessment tokens somehow got so many tokens, but his cultivation didnât seem to be that great, huh?
âThreatening me?â.
At that moment, Lin Feng made his move.
WhooshâŠ
He moved as fast as lightning and instantly appeared in front of Zhang Bao; the crowd didnât even see when Lin Feng had struck. He fiercely threw a punch at Zhang Bao, who couldnât react in time.
Bang.
Lin Fengâs punch had viciously landed on Zhang Baoâs chest.
âAh.â Zhang Bao spat out a mouthful of blood, was thrown more than ten meters away, and fell to the ground violently twitching.
âCanât be, right? Zhang Bao of the Seventh Level of Martial King Realm couldnât even take one strike?â
âSo brutal.â
Many people shouted out in shock.
Lin Feng put on an innocent expression and said, âHurry up and buy; two thousand high-grade spiritual stones each; limited quantity, and itâs over once sold out.â
âI want it, I want it, I want it.â
Many people hurriedly gathered their spiritual stones, afraid they might miss out on acquiring the entry token; several even started fighting over them.
Lin Feng happily sold the entry tokens.
There were two hundred and thirty-two entry tokens in total; he only needed to keep one for himself.
âDonât worry; thereâs more.â
After the first batch of a dozen entry tokens sold out, Lin Feng then took out another dozen entry tokens.
Many people wore shocked expressions, inwardly wondering just how many entry tokens this guy had?
More and more people gathered around, the entry tokens in Lin Fengâs hands gradually decreased while his collection of high-grade spiritual stones increased.
This made Lin Fengâs smile blossom like a flower.
âKid, where did you get these entry tokens from?â
Sikong Mo pushed through the crowd, glaring fiercely at Lin Feng. He felt his own entry tokens had been stolen by this mysterious guy, but Sikong Mo had no proof.
Lin Feng spoke indifferently, âWhatâs it to you? Are you buying or not? If so, hurry up and bring the spiritual stones.â
âDamn, you guys at the front, hurry up; if youâre not buying, I still want to buy.â
Many people behind moaned and cursed.
Sikong Mo was extremely frustrated; he originally seized a large number of entry tokens intending to sell them, but now he couldnât produce two thousand spiritual stones to purchase one.
âBrother Sikong, use these spiritual stones to buy an entry token first, and weâll talk about passing the Azure Cloud Sectâs examination later.â
A friend of Sikong Moâs handed over two thousand spiritual stones to him.
âThanks.â Sikong Mo expressed his gratitude, used two thousand high-grade spiritual stones to buy an entry token from Lin Feng.
Soon, two hundred and thirty-one entry tokens were completely sold by Lin Feng.
But just then, furious roars erupted from a distance.
âWho is disrupting our Azure Cloud Sectâs examination?â
Several exceptionally strong Azure Cloud Sect stewards roared furiously.
âItâs this guy.â
Many people pointed at Lin Feng, who was selling the entry tokens.
âIngrates, would you be able to join the Azure Cloud Sect without me?â Lin Feng rolled his eyes.
âTwo thousand high-grade spiritual stones, you black-hearted fiend,â many people cursed.
âScrew your sister.â
Lin Feng muttered under his breath, soared into the sky, and flew toward the distance, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
