Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Not only Lu Xuan, but other contestants also observed carefully, pondering their next moves before entering the water.
Nalan Yu was the first to enter.
The Fire Phoenix cried out loudly, then plunged into the obstacle.
As the no-fly array activated, the Fire Phoenix descended into the water.
During this process, Nalan Yu’s chariot transford into nurous tiny particles, reshaping itself.
A large red koi erged, swimming in the water. The koi, enveloped in magical light, resisted the external pulling force.
The second to act were Ao Sheng and his sister. The Ice Dragon chariot didn’t transform but drove straight into the water.
As it touched the water surface, the Ice Dragon breathed out, freezing the water ahead, aiming to create an ice bridge to smoothly cross the lake. “Turning water into ice, building a bridge across the lake… The two royals trom the Eastern Sea Dragon Clan are indeed extraordinary,”
The male host comnted with a smile:
“The crystals obtained in the last obstacle have given the duo the boldness to attempt this, but this challenge isn’t that easy to overco.”
As he finished speaking, the newly extended ice bridge, barely ten ters long, was pulled apart by an unknown force and shattered.
“The force of the array in the Endless Waters affects not just the contestants’ chariots,” the female comntator explained, “In the Endless Waters, everything is subject to the array’s force, even the ice floating on the water surface.’
Despite the failure to build an ice bridge, Ao Sheng’s side was undeterred.
The Ice Dragon chariot was covered in a layer of ice crystals, enclosing the chariot, which then sank and rapidly dived in the water.
Being a chariot of the Dragon Clan, the Ice Dragon chariot was designed with a diving function from the beginning.
More precisely, this chariot was modified from a submarine blueprint, with added capabilities for flight and land travel.
On the Buddhist-Daoist team’s side, the masters chanted a Buddhist mantra and drove their wooden fish into the water.
A wooden fish is still a fish, and as a fish, it can swim.
The three Daoists, unwilling to be outdone, followed closely behind in their stone ox-drawn cart, jumping into the water.
Unlike the floating wooden fish, the stone ox was “walking” on the water.
The cart glowed with magical light, and the stone ox seed to co alive, running forward.
Clouds encircled the hooves of the stone ox, pulling the cart and treading over the waves.
The remaining contestants each employed their thods.
The Jade Bone Sect’s bone sphere transford into a white bone warship, forging ahead through the waves.
The Immortal Farr Sect’s black pot chariot extended two large iron oars on each side, paddling at a rapid pace.
“Our team thirteen has also started moving, ” the female host noticed the activity on the field. “Team thirteen… have they turned their flying boat upside down?!”
The bronze coffin entered the water first, with the nine dragon corpses pointing backwards, as the entire chariot entered the water in reverse.
A clicking sound resonated as the chains wrapped around the dragon corpses twisted together.
The next mont, the chains started to rotate!
The nine dragon corpses straightened, collectively forming a propeller. The propeller spun rapidly, pushing the bronze coffin forward.
“This, this…”
The male comntator was montarily lost for words, then said, “…It seems that team thirteen’s nine dragons attached to their flying boat are indeed not just for show.”
Lu Xuan thought, of course, they weren’t just for show. These nine dragons could be used as the blades of a propeller.
The propeller made by the nine dragons created a significant commotion, splashing water everywhere.
On the surface of the Endless Waters, a white trail was left behind by Lu Xuan’s chariot.
Having secured demon crystal supplies in the previous obstacle, Cheng
Lingzhu maximized the speed without worrying about energy consumption.
Even though they were the last to enter the water, the propeller quickly made them the first to leave the water surface.
Following the Endless Waters was the fifth obstacle.
“On the shores of the Endless Waters lies a thousand-foot-high cliff, on which grows a plant called the ‘Five Elents Vine,”‘ the male comntator introduced, “Every ten years, the Five Elents Vine bears fruit. This obstacle is special; picking the fruit grants extra points!”
“However, I must remind the contestants that the Five Elents fruit is unique and cannot be picked with tools or magic. It must be plucked by hand.”
“…When leaving your chariots to pick the fruit, rember to take your wooden swords.”
The implication was clear.
The contestants could now start beating up their opponents.
“There’s another point,” the female comntator added, “Though there’s no no-fly restriction in this obstacle, a magnetic field array is set up.
Moving in this obstacle will an enduring ten tis the force of the earth’s magnetism, so contestants should be mindful of their energy consumption.”
It was worth noting that fog started to appear above ten ters from the ground on the cliff.
The closer to the top of the cliff, the denser the fog becos.
This was a design by the competition committee to increase the difficulty.
“Hum—I’
The first to launch their chariot were Ao Sheng and Ao Yuan.
The Ice Dragon chariot soared into the sky, plunging into the white mist.
Having supplies, they could afford to be bold. At least in this obstacle, they didn’t need to worry about energy.
The Buddhist and Daoist teams also flew up, though not as quickly as Ao Sheng and Ao Yuan.
Nalan Yu chose to climb rather than fly.
The chanical koi transford into a red centipede, climbing up the cliff.
“The thousand-foot height is a bit challenging, but there’s no need to fly so mgn,
A Valley People tribe contestant in the corn chariot eyed the cliff’s end.
Covered by thick fog, it obscured everything.
The corn chariot raised its body, adjusting its angle.
Energy accumulated at the rear of the chariot.
Inside, three Valley People tribe contestants looked serious.
“Three, two, one…”
“Launch!”
The contestant with golden wheat spikes pushed the lever. With a “boom,” the corn chariot shot out like a cannon.
It flew three hundred feet.
“The Valley People tribe’s performance is astounding. Previously lagging behind, they have now reached the forefront of all contestants!”
“However, they chose not to fly over the obstacle but stopped… Are they preparing to pick the Five Elents fruit?”
“If so, the other contestants need to step up their ga. The Valley People tribe has taken a leading position, ideally placed to harvest the most points.”
Below the cliff, “We can do the sa,” a Vegetable People tribe contestant smiled, as their radish chariot also raised, adjusting its angle.
With a “boom,” the bright red radish soared like a rocket, shooting up to four hundred feet above the ground, even further than the Valley People tribe.
“Reaching this obstacle, the contestants are no longer holding back, bringing out their ace techniques,”
The male comntator smiled, “Let’s see what team thirteen is doing… Are they climbing?”
The director switched the cara, and the audience saw nine dragon corpses clinging to the cliff, like chanical arms firmly attached to the rock.
The entire Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin resembled an octopus.
The comntator felt sothing was off but then thought that maybe this was exactly how the Nine Dragons Coffin should be used.
“Climbing? Not too difficult.”
A Jade Bone Sect monk spoke, transforming the bone sphere back into a white bone giant.
The white bone giant grabbed a protrusion on the cliff and began to climb vigorously.
“We needn’t hold back either.”
The Tree People tribe contestant spoke, and their wooden cubic chariot emitted a green glow.
Rooted in the cube, nurous branches and roots grew, intertwining into a hundred-foot-tall tree person.
The audience gasped in amazent, witnessing everything through the spirit energy screen.
This was a profound application of the Wood Elent Array. The Tree People tribe contestants sat in the cockpit while the hundred-foot-tall tree person extended its hand, its root-made fingers reaching out and entwining in the cliff’s protrusions and crevices..
