Chapter 242: Chapter 100: Yan Sansan’s Shock
“I-I must be seeing things!”
It took a while for Yan Sansan to co back to his senses, finally exhaling a long breath.
“Of course you didn’t see wrong, little yellow chick uncle, it just caught a golden opportunity…” Kong Shiyao nodded in confirmation.
“You’re calling a chicken ‘uncle’?” Yan Sansan was utterly confused.
“Of course!”
Kong Shiyao nodded.
Although the other party currently looked like a “Kun,” she still knew its real identity.
The indestructible Deathless Monarch of the Empyrean, the teacher’s beast pet, deserving of respect.
“It’s so lucky, to catch a golden opportunity without being backlashed by the Heavenly Mandate Vitality… The fragnts of the heavens it can comprehend in the future will surely be mighty strong!”
With a sigh of emotion, just as Yan Sansan thought about trying his luck, he saw the little yellow chick chew a couple of tis, seemingly finding the golden koi not to his taste.
“Ptooey!”
It spat it out on the spot.
“???”
Yan Sansan’s vision darkened: “That’s a golden opportunity, people are lucky to get a chance like that once in their lifeti, and after finally catching it, it spits it out, how can it be so foolish…”
The more he thought about it, the angrier he beca, almost exploding on the spot.
Being young and hotheaded, he couldn’t stand such wastefulness.
Whoosh!
Before he could finish speaking, the little yellow chick dipped its head into the water again and grabbed another golden koi in its beak.
“…”
Yan Sansan now had even more question marks above his head.
Just spat out one and caught another? Since when are golden opportunities so easy to catch?
“Could it be easier than in Zouyi City?”
After his shock, a thought erged. Eyeing a golden koi, Yan Sansan abruptly grabbed at it.
Slap slap slap slap!
The golden koi leaped up, slapping him brutally seven or eight tis across the face with its tail before diving back into the River of Destiny.
“???”
With a red and swollen face, Yan Sansan felt a bit dizzy.
Seems just as difficult, no? Did I not grab it properly? Is this koi stronger?
They were both major opportunities, but even among them, there were different levels of difficulty. Earning a billion and earning a hundred billion, the latter opportunity was obviously much greater.
At a loss, he then saw the little yellow chick, deeming it unpalatable again, spitting it out before dipping its head into the water once more, biting the very koi that had slapped him a mont ago.
“…”
Yan Sansan’s cheeks were completely flushed.
At that mont, he finally realized it wasn’t that the fish were easy to catch; it was just that the other party was too strong!
He had been looking down on it all this ti… Turned out, he wasn’t even as good as a chicken!
“At least there’s still the horse to fall back on…”
He breathed a sigh of relief in his mind.
Not as good as a chicken, but with the horse to lean on, it wasn’t too bad. With this thought, he couldn’t help but look towards the direction of the great horse, only to be stunned once again.
Just like the chicken he had been looking down upon, the thousand-li horse he disparaged was also swimming through the River of Destiny. It reached into the water with its hooves, seizing a thick golden koi that couldn’t break free despite its struggle.
“…”
Yan Sansan rubbed his eyes hard, making sure he wasn’t seeing things wrong, his mouth twitching, feeling a bit like crying.
What the heck is going on?
Lesser than a chicken was one thing, but to be outdone by a horse…
“Them, them… what the heck is going on?” Unable to hold back any longer, he turned to look at Kong Shiyao.
“I don’t know either, maybe they’re just luckier!”
Kong Shiyao shook her head. “Alright, since there’s a ti limit, I won’t delay any longer. You be busy…”
After saying that, Kong Shiyao dived toward the side, and soon after, she reached out with her right hand, another golden koi appearing in her palm.
“I…”
His eyelids quivered, watching the girl who had already swum far away, Yan Sansan fell into self-doubt.
Turns out, he was the joke all along…
The ones he looked down upon, thinking they lacked strength, each turned out to be several tis stronger than himself.
That really hurts!
This line of thought didn’t last long, however, as he quickly ca to his senses.
Among the ten who had entered at the sa ti, there were three students of Zhang Xuan: Kong Shiyao, Dan Xiaotian, and Bai Ruanqing.
These three, plus a chicken and a horse, could all easily catch golden koi. He turned his head to look at the remaining four people.
Glug glug glug glug~~
Glug glug glug glug~
They seed thirsty, incessantly bubbling where they were, gulping big mouthfuls of water. Forget catching koi, it was still questionable whether they could even float.
“Could it be… that Zhang Xuan has sothing special? Otherwise, why would people, and even animals, related to him be so formidable?”
An idea erged.
“Doesn’t matter now, I must hurry and catch one…”
Knowing the Life Master assessnt had a ti limit and that if he hesitated any longer, the River of Destiny’s currents would grow increasingly turbulent until he could no longer withstand them.
Desperately flapping, Yan Sansan lunged for a silver koi.
Slippery!
The koi also leaped up, smacking him a few tis across the face.
“Cough cough cough!”
With a blushing face, he retreated and sought another, reaching towards a grey koi.
After struggling for a few monts, he managed to grasp the grey koi, just feeling relieved when its thick tail twisted again, delivering yet another slap…
Yan Sansan felt so wronged he wanted to cry.
Why do the koi he catches all want to beat him up, while those caught by Kong Shiyao, Dan Xiaotian, and the others are extrely docile?
It’s not fair!
“Here…”
Brooding, a faint voice sounded. Turning his head, he saw Kong Shiyao handing over a golden koi.
“For ?” Yan Sansan was filled with disbelief.
“Yeah, you couldn’t catch any, right? This one is for you…” Kong Shiyao smiled.
She had reminded him several tis with good intentions, so naturally, Kong Shiyao reciprocated.
“If you give it to , what will you do?” Yan Sansan knew the significance of such an opportunity and couldn’t help but look over.
“? I’ll just catch another one!” Kong Shiyao dived into the water, and in a mont, she erged with an even bigger golden koi cradled in her arms.
Yan Sansan: “…”
Alright then!
No more talking, the more I say, the more embarrassed I feel…
…
Inside the room, everyone was desperately trying to catch koi, while the spectators outside were equally anxious, chattering away.
“Do you think anyone can pass this ti?”
“Of course, there’s Yan Sansan, who is the top contender on the Star River Potential List. It goes without saying, he’s sure to be the first to pass.”
“Yeah, with his talent, he can not only succeed but even make the tombstone bloom with bright red color.”
“I think so too. As for the others, it’s hard to say, especially that chicken and that horse, they must be here for laughs…”
The mocking voices grew louder, and everyone looked at Zhang Daoli as if they were seeing a sucker.
Even Elder Zhu Xun couldn’t help but sigh: “Being assessed together with Yan Sansan, these people indeed have bad luck!”
“What do you an by that, Elder Zhu?”
A young man who recognized the elder couldn’t help but ask.
Elder Zhu Xun explained, “There are opportunities within the Heavenly Mandate Force Tide, and by seizing them, one has the chance to find their own destiny and beco a Fate Master… this is sothing everyone knows. But what you don’t know is… the higher the talent, the stronger the attraction! In other words, the sa opportunity is more inclined to gravitate towards those with higher talent. With Yan Sansan having such imnse talent, it’s harder for the others to seize an opportunity…”
If this assessnt is likened to fishing, the higher the talent, the more enticing the bait… all the fish naturally swim towards such people, leaving fewer for the others.
Opportunities that others might have gotten under normal circumstances might end in nothing this ti.
Isn’t that just bad luck?
“So that’s it…” Zhang Xuan realized.
It seems like later, when I’m with my many disciples, I need to be more careful; otherwise, if they can’t grasp their opportunity, how can they beco Fate Masters?
While pondering, the crowd started to buzz again, signaling that the ti for entering the stone chamber was enough, and the results should be out soon.
Hum!
Accompanied by the sound, the tombstone suddenly emitted a dazzling red light, and a na appeared.
“Yan Sansan, it really is him…”
A na appeared on the tombstone, no other than Yan Sansan, who had just subdued two powerhouses all by himself.
Emitting red light clearly indicated he had obtained a significant opportunity and had found the destiny that suited him.
As expected of a genius, he truly caused a sensation!
“Not bad, not bad, this lad has an unlimited future…” Elder Zhu Xun also nodded in satisfaction.
“Lad, what about the horse you sent over? And that chicken?”
After expressing his sentint, soone shouted out.
“Why ask about that? They were never expected to succeed; not having their nas is the most normal outco. Alright, Elder Zhu, it’s ti to open the gate; even if the others wait longer, they won’t get the opportunity…”
Another person spoke out.
“Hmm!”
Elder Zhu Xun nodded his head.
Opportunities are easy to obtain if they are ant for you, but even if you wait forever for those that aren’t, it’s futile.
He stretched out his palm, about to push the stone gate, when the tombstone flashed again and a series of nas appeared.
Kong Shiyao, Dan Xiaotian, Bai Ruanqing!
“This…”
Elder Zhu Xun stood there, stunned.
Wasn’t it supposed to be difficult for others to succeed with a super genius present? How co not only soone completed it but three popped up at once?
Not just him, everyone else was stunned as well.
“It seems… these three are all disciples of that Zhang Xuan!”
“It looks like it!”
“Three disciples, all becoming Fate Masters? That luck is too good!”
“Lucky bastards, but those two animals probably have no hope left…”
Hum!
Before the words ended, the tombstone emitted red light again and two more nas appeared.
Huang Sisi!
Zhang Daoli!
“This…”
“Huang Sisi seems to be that chick…”
“Zhang Daoli is that horse, they actually both passed? And both with red light? What’s going on?”
Everyone went completely mad.
Those who had been mocking Zhang Xuan a mont ago simultaneously felt a burning pain on their faces, as if they had been harshly slapped.
The chicken and horse they looked down on had actually found their own fragnts of the heavens and beca Life Masters…
And they could only spout petty words!
“What’s going on here?”
Elder Zhu, trembling, looked towards the young man nearby. He expected him to be extrely excited, but instead saw him frowning tightly, clearly displeased.
“They’ve taken this long to find their destiny, what are these guys playing at?”
“…” Elder Zhu stood frozen.
