Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1317: Gathering (2)

Beside Su Yu, Bai Feng was stunned as well. He stared at Su Yu speechlessly. After a long while, he asked, "Liu Hong, what is this? Are you really Liu Hong?"

He was feeling greatly doubtful. Could this be Su Yu? But...would Su Yu be shameless enough to praise himself like that? Someone so shameless couldn't exist, right? Bai Feng was not alone in thinking like this. Nobody was sure if this was Su Yu.

Even Wu Lan and Wu Jia were looking at them curiously. What was happening? The beasts looked even more confused.

Su Yu grinned and asked, "What's wrong? From the first time I met Su Yu, I could already see that he was a giant among men. In fact, he is even better than a mere giant. He is so great creation itself pales before him."

"..."

After staring at Su Yu doubtfully for a while, Hong Tan threw a sudden palm attack at him.

Su Yu merely stood there with a smile. When the palm struck, Su Yu was blasted into pieces. Hong Tan was stunned.

Beside him, Liu Wenyan reached out to the flesh and blood that were instantly reforming into a man. The reformed man grinned, "That was cold."

Liu Wenyan continued reaching out to the newly reformed man. A seal was placed around the newly reformed man.

But the vibrate character was able to easily shatter the seal.

Liu Wenyan's eyes flickered as he switched to a different technique, freezing the man over.

Not far away, Chen Yong laughed with amusement as he flicked his finger and wrapped numerous chains around Su Yu. Seeing what was happening, Hong Tan snorted.

Was the kid trying to compete against them in characters? Yes, the kid was strong. But in terms of character alone, they were far better than the kid.

"Lock!"

With that shout, even the air itself was locked.

As a response, Su Yu ignited his entire body to burn Liu Wenyan's ice before breaking Chen Yong's chains with his break and saber characters. Finally, he used the five elemental characters to imprison the lock character.

One character ability after another was demonstrated.

Nearby, Bai Feng was just about to join in when he was completely pressed down on the ground by a casual activation of Su Yu's suppress character. His face turned red, not from exertion, but from anger.

Holy shit!

He demanded angrily, "Let me go!"

Su Yu looked at Bai Feng before withdrawing his character awkwardly. Was his teacher a sore loser? If he wanted to play, he must be capable of taking a loss. Otherwise, he might as well not play. It would be very annoying to play with someone like that.

With great difficulty, Bai Feng stood back up. When he noted that Hong Tan and the others were looking at him with smiling faces, he complained furiously, "You crossed of line! How could you disrespect your teacher like that?"

Hong Tan laughed and said, "You are still lacking. How did you get yourself suppressed so easily by a mere fourth-tier character? What are you supposed to do when you encounter a Mountainsea enemy in the future?"

"I'm still a first-stage Cloudbreach!"

Bai Feng protested. Why should he be fighting Mountainseas at his level?

Hong Tan said with a regretful tone, "Those on the Heaven Index can fight early Mountainseas as early Cloudbreaches."

Screw that!

Bai Feng rolled his eyes. He wasn't even on the Heaven Index. Why should he be judged by that standard?

At this point, everyone was already aware that this was Su Yu. Wu Jia, who had realized the same, exclaimed in surprise, "Junior Brother!"

However, Wu Lan was still focused on the soil. She was completely ignoring Su Yu.

With a smile, Su Yu asked, "Wu Lan, do you still not know my identity?"

Wu Lan looked up from her soil and asked in astonishment, "I knew it was you the moment I heard you praising yourself. Why do you ask?"

Why did she not react, then? Su Yu was left speechless.

Wu Lan couldn't be bothered to waste her time with Su Yu. She continued playing with the soil on the ground. After a moment, she frowned, "How odd. Allheaven Battlefield has only been active for a few hundred years, right? But why am I smelling the stench of blood from so many people in this soil? This doesn't look like an accumulation of only a few hundred years..."

"..."

Everyone looked at her in surprise. How did she reach that conclusion from the soil?

When Wu Lan stood up again, she noticed that everyone was looking at her. Thus, she asked curiously, "Why is everyone looking at me? Did I get some soil on my face?"

She wiped her face doubtfully. But when she saw that everyone was still looking at her, she started cursing inwardly. Were these people sick in the head? Why were they still looking at her?

Su Yu laughed in amusement while Hong Tan and Liu Wenyan shook their heads after looking at each other.

This lass was...hopeless.

So be it.

After exchanging greetings with his senior sister, Su Yu reached out at the suanni. The suanni wanted to flee, but he failed.

After easily catching the suanni, Su Yu said, "Wow, this guy has grown plump. I guess this is our dinner tonight?"

"No, Lord. Spare me!"

The suanni wailed fearfully, "I'm sorry! I won't do this anymore! I won't steal food anymore! I won't sneak into your room and sleep on your bed anymore! I'm sorry! Please forgive me! That bull did the same thing! He has grown plump as well! Lord..."

First, Su Yu blanked out. Then, he tossed the suanni at the mountaindrill bull, who had buried his entire body except his head into the ground before snorting. The suanni crashed into the bull's head, but the bull didn't dare to make any sound despite the pain he was feeling from the crash.

The suanni was terrified. When did Su Yu become so strong?

How terrifying!

At this point, all of them were already aware that this was Su Yu.

Soon, Su Yu smiled again as he faced the others and said, "Everyone, I'm back."

Liu Wenyan smiled and asked, "Are you addicted to disguising yourself as others?"

Su Yu said, "What can I do? I have many enemies. I believe even Invincibles will try to assassinate me if they know that I'm out of my city."

Bai Feng rolled his eyes and said, "If you dare disrespect your teacher like this again, I will kick you out of the multiple character faction!"

It was too embarrassing. The kid had been able to fool him each time the kid returned with a different identity. More importantly, he had no way of seeing through the kid's disguise. For some reason, he was the first person the kid would fool each time the kid returned. The more he thought about this, the more furious he became.

Thus, he ran over and gave Su Yu a kick to vent his anger. Alas, he ended up hurting his own toes from the kick.

Su Yu said nothing. He merely laughed.

Then, he looked at Wu Lan again and asked curiously, "Earlier, you talked about beating me to death. What was that about? I don't remember doing anything recently."

Wu Lan said, "It was nothing. I mentioned that you lured a lot of character techniques for me. Then, Elder Hong said that he wanted to smash your shameless face apart."

Hong Tan was left speechless. Those were not his words at all. Why did the lass alter what he said?

Su Yu laughed in amusement. But when he looked at the others again, he suddenly felt melancholy. He said, "I guess this is...a full gathering."

He looked at Chen Yong and sighed, "Sorry, Martial Uncle. I failed to take revenge for you. Zhu Tianfang killed them all before I could do anything. But I did kill Goldwing for you."

Chen Yong nodded, "It's fine. Since I'm not strong enough to kill them myself, it's fine to have others do it. Fiery Sea, Goldwing, and Silverwing are all dead. I can finally put this grudge behind me."

Su Yu merely smiled. He did not mention the symbol of the mysterious Invincible he saw. It was pointless. There was no need to worry them for something they could do nothing about.

Hong Tan said, "That's a good thing. Come on, take a seat. Kid, you're like a mysterious shadow. Your whereabouts are harder to grasp than ours. Those characters of yours are quite strong. I can see that most of them are already at the fourth tier. Is your willpower at the ninth-stage Cloudbreach Realm?"

"Yeah."

Liu Wenyan frowned, "Why did they feel overly strong? Did you consume some sunmoon profound yellow liquid before to strengthen your apertures?"

"Yeah."

"That's too rash!" Liu Wenyan shook his head, "Aperture fusion will be extremely hard for you. You should stop underestimating your character cultivation since cultural researchers can't enter the Invincible Realm. If you only have a strong body and a weak willpower, your weakness will be too obvious. Things are fine now, but when you become an Invincible, even entering the River of Time will be extremely challenging with only the willpower of a Cloudbreach. Your enemies will be able to easily exploit this flaw of yours."

Su Yu nodded.

Suddenly, Chen Yong laughed and asked, "Back when you first formed your character technique, Bai Feng and I asked about the character count. You told us two nines. Do you remember that?"

"Yeah." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Chen Yong asked again, "So what did you mean exactly by that? If even a twenty-character technique is merely an average technique for you, what exactly did you mean by two nines?"

Recalling the same matter, Bai Feng started scolding again, "How could you lie to your teacher? Have you ever not lie before?"

Su Yu had an innocent expression as he argued, "I didn't lie about that. Who lied? I said two nines. Ninety-nine. How was that a lie?"

"..."

Silence descended.

Su Yu continued, "I never lied. I merely noticed how excited you were when you mentioned the twenty-two characters of the fifth principal, the eighteen characters of Teacher Liu, the fourteen characters of grandteacher, and your pitiful twelve characters. I couldn't bring myself to say ninety-nine. I was trying to protect you from a heart attack."

"..."

Bai Feng had an unsightly expression. He had naturally formed a higher number of characters, but there was no doubt that his character technique was one with only twelve characters. The rest of them wouldn't fit in perfectly with his character technique.

Reminded of their past conversations, Bai Feng couldn't help but curse inwardly. True. Even if Su Yu were to tell him the truth back then, he wouldn't believe it. So that was what the kid meant by two nines?

Hong Tan frowned and said, "Ninety-nine...let's not talk about the origin of such a character technique for now. Something feels wrong about your character technique."

Liu Wenyan nodded in agreement, "Yes. It doesn't feel right. Generally, every character technique requires an even number of characters. It is extremely rare for the number of characters to be odd. These character techniques exist, but most of the time, the odd number is an indicator that there is a certain flaw in the character technique. However, your character technique is too powerful to be flawed."

Bai Feng disagreed, "That's not a big deal. Ultimately, all the characters will be fused into one. Even or odd, it won't matter in the end. However, it is indeed abnormal for a ninety-nine-character technique to exist."

He gave it some thought and said, "There are two possibilities. Either the character technique is actually a manifestation of his racial ability, or there is already an existing character in his head, occupying the final spot in his character technique. The kid has merely been oblivious about that."

"..."
