Chapter 39: The Second Trial Task

  In front of Xing Peng, three young martial artists, who had reached the early stages of the Earth Level, were brutally killing Xing Jianfeng and others. At this moment, Xing Jianfeng and his companions were in grave danger, their bodies covered with wounds, with copious amounts of blood gushing out.

  "Roar!" A golden dragon fiercely leapt out from Xing Peng's hands, issuing a earth-shattering roar, with a force that seemed to move mountains and seas, like an atomic bomb, fiercely exploding on the battlefield. It sent the three Earth Level martial artists, who were surrounding the Xing family's disciples, flying. Each of the Earth Level martial artists attacked by the golden dragon bled from their seven orifices in an instant.

  After blasting those martial artists away with The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, Xing Peng flashed to the side of Xing Jianfeng and others, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on here!"

  Xing Jianfeng, pale-faced, gave Xing Peng a bitter smile, his eyes revealing excitement and fortune: "We also don't know what's going on. Just after landing on the sea surface from the spaceship, we were surrounded and attacked by these people!"

  Hearing this, Xing Peng frowned, then his gaze fell on the several martial artists who had been blown away. With a slight thought, he used the ancient martial art 'Dragon Capturing Hand' from his previous life, suddenly drawing one of the martial artists in blue clothing from afar into his hand.

  Seeing this, Xing Jianfeng and the others showed surprise in their eyes. Such a technique was unprecedented to them; being able to draw someone into one's hand from several meters away.

  "Tell me who you are! Why didn't I see you on the spaceship? And why are you attacking Xing Jianfeng and the others!" After capturing the martial artist in his hand, Xing Peng asked sternly. These three Earth Level martial artists were unfamiliar to Xing Peng. He admitted that although he hadn't paid much attention to memorizing the faces of the martial artists who jumped down from the spaceship to participate in the second trial, he still recognized the faces of those on the spaceship.

  Upon hearing Xing Peng's question, the martial artist in blue clothing did not immediately answer. Instead, enduring the pain in his body and with shock, he said, "What kind of technique is this! Why is my entire body's Profound Qi imprisoned after you caught me? Could you be a Heaven Level martial artist?"

  "Snap!" Xing Peng slapped the martial artist's head with a casual hand: "Stop changing the subject, tell me what's going on immediately! If the answer doesn't satisfy me, I'll kill you right away!" With these words, Xing Peng's body exuded a surging killing intent, causing the martial artist in blue clothing to change his expression unnaturally. Without any hesitation, he quickly disclosed his identity to Xing Peng, "We are the outer disciples recruited by the White Tiger Academy last session. The reason we attacked them is that this is the assassination mission given to us by the White Tiger Academy. We are specifically responsible for assassinating you trial participants."

  "Outer disciples? Assassinate us!" Xing Peng looked at the martial artist in blue clothing in astonishment, then said sternly, "How many of you came this time? What exactly is this second trial task? Why did I encounter an illusion here just now?"

  "What! You encountered an illusion!! No wonder you suddenly appeared next to us, this is too incredible!" exclaimed the martial artist in blue clothing in disbelief.

  "Why are you so surprised? Is there something special about this illusion?" Xing Peng asked curiously, intrigued.

  "Of course, it's different! Although the illusion is also part of the second trial, it is rare for anyone to trigger it. According to the elders, anyone who triggers the illusion and officially passes the trial can receive a thousand contribution points." The martial artist in blue clothing looked at Xing Peng with some envy. That's a thousand contribution points, enough for him to exchange for several good martial arts manuals at the White Tiger Academy.

  "Oh? A thousand contribution points can be obtained! There really is such a thing! Alright, let's not talk about this, tell me what this trial task is all about!" said Xing Peng.

  The martial artist in blue clothing sighed bitterly, "Actually, you don't need to ask us about this trial task. The trial task envoy has already told you. Didn't you receive a White Tiger jade token when you participated in the trial? If you input your Profound Qi into the White Tiger jade token, you can check this trial task."

  "Damn, this jade token can actually check the trial task! That means, we were deceived by that red-haired envoy!" Xing Peng grimaced weirdly, hurriedly took out the jade token from his bosom, and input his Profound Qi into the 'White Tiger jade token.' Immediately, a message flowed into Xing Peng's mind.

  "Activate the second trial task. Task one, evade the assassination by the White Tiger Academy's outer disciples and snatch the White Tiger jade tokens from the assassins or other trial participants. The more jade tokens obtained, the higher the contribution points earned. Note, if a trial participant loses their jade token and cannot snatch it back from others within five days — elimination!"

  "Task two, gather ten jade tokens and then head to the Blackwater Plains. Survive on the Blackwater Plains for fifteen days! Those who leave the Blackwater Plains before fifteen days are up — elimination!"

  After these messages entered Xing Peng's mind, his expression turned very strange. The current situation was damn near like playing an online game, even the trial tasks had come out. This jade token and the task management in those games were not much different.

  While Xing Peng was checking the information of the jade token, Xing Jianfeng and the others, having heard the conversation between Xing Peng and the man in blue, also input their Profound Qi into their White Tiger jade tokens to check the tasks. When they understood what the tasks were, their expressions unnaturally changed.

  Losing the jade token would result in elimination. And they also needed to snatch others' jade tokens, clearly intending for the trial participants to kill each other.

  "Since the task is such, then your jade token, I will gladly accept!" After receiving the information, Xing Peng felt a slight emotion, then wickedly smiled at the man in blue, and started searching the man's body.

  "Wait! Wait a minute!" The man in blue's expression drastically changed, calling out anxiously.

  "Oh! Do you have anything else to say?" Xing Peng stopped his hand, smiling amiably.

  "I can tell you the strength of all the people who came to assassinate you this time, please don't snatch our jade tokens. If my jade token is snatched by you, I will also be eliminated!" said the man in blue.

  "The one who robs others will always be robbed! You're still trying to negotiate terms with me at this point, even if you don't say it, someone will tell me soon." Xing Peng coldly pursed his lips, then continued searching, completely ignoring the man in blue's cries. After finding the jade token on the other party, he flung it away.

  As Xing Peng flung the man in blue away, two other martial artists who had been injured by Xing Peng earlier had somewhat recovered from their injuries. When they saw what Xing Peng was doing, they exchanged glances and then fled in two different directions using their movement techniques.

  "Do you think you can run away?" Xing Peng coldly huffed and once again executed the 'Dragon Capturing Hand', pulling both men into his grasp in an instant. Since breaking through to the Heaven Level in the illusion, Xing Peng's strength had greatly surpassed what it was before the trial began. Executing the ancient martial arts from his previous life came as naturally as breathing to him.
