Resignation to fate!
Manipulated at will!
So, doesn’t this make the ’mind reading technique’ useless?
"Ah!"
Ding Xiang only felt a darkness before her eyes, nearly fainting again.
Got it!
Three years wasted in vain!
...
"Junior Sister Ding."
Situ Fei held Ding Xiang and swept to a protruding rock, standing there barely with both feet side by side and her back against the cliff, unable to sustain for long. Seeing Ding Xiang still baffled, she gently called out.
"Ah!"
Ding Xiang finally snapped out of it: "Sister Bodhisattva!"
She quickly got off Situ Fei, face full of apology: "Nearly dragged you down, Sister."
With her calling ’sister’ like this, it was hard for anyone to be upset.
Situ Fei, on the contrary, showed concern, saying: "Climbing the mountain is dangerous, Junior Sister Ding, if you’re not feeling well, it’s best to descend and rest, your health is more important."
"Okay!"
"I’m fine!"
"Thank you for your concern, Sister!"
Ding Xiang nodded in agreent. She intended to chat a bit more with Situ Fei, but her ears were filled with Yan Chuan’s unending voice, unavoidable, forcefully pouring into her ears, it was literally maddening.
However, as she listened, as she absorbed, Ding Xiang suddenly found that Yan Chuan’s explanations were pearls of wisdom, falling into her ears were actually easier to understand than her previous years of ’mind reading’ and ’eavesdropping’.
They fell into her ears, echoed in her mind, grasped and digested in a flash.
"Sky Flying Shadow!"
"Shadowy Charm!"
"Cloud Rubbing Thirty-Six Strokes!"
Each word, each sentence, was like being spoon-fed, any comprehension of the lightweight body technique taught by Yan Chuan, she mastered imdiately, instantly grasping the essence.
Satisfying!
Just go with the flow!
Yan Chuan in motion!
Aside from losing control, this experience even surpassed when she could actively use ’mind reading’.
"Wow!"
"Was this not a loss?"
...
[Your ’Shadowy Charm’ has been upgraded, Fourth Realm Slightly Accomplished → Fifth Realm of Mastery.]
...
"Marvelous!"
Yan Chuan was equally delighted.
At this mont, the feedback he gained from "Mutual Teaching and Learning" beca more real and fierce, especially related to "Shadowy Charm", one wave after another, with no end in sight.
In this state, the progress of [Task Five: Ladder Cloud Jump] was also skyrocketing.
By the ti he finished explaining ’Sky Flying Shadow’ to Situ Fei—
[Task Five: Inspiration 3]
...
[Task Five]
[Project Na: Ladder Cloud Jump (Difficulty: Geng★)]
[Inspiration: 100]
[Completing the task will grant ’Experience 50,000’, ’Spiritual 50,000’.]
...
Ladder Cloud Jump!
Personally attempting Wave Riding Micro Steps, lectures delivered front and back.
Not even two hours in total, effortlessly completed the research and developnt.
...
At this mont.
The top experts climbing the mountain had already ascended over two hundred ters, their journey nearly a third done. As the distance extended, it was getting more challenging to clearly see each individual’s precise movents and details from below.
Unable to see clearly!
It makes it hard to explain!
"Need to catch up, get closer, only then can I continue lecturing."
Just as "Ladder Cloud Jump" was completed in research, without hesitation, Yan Chuan swung his arms and swept towards the cliff.
Yan Chuan of Jian Province!
Started climbing the cliff!
...
"Finally moved!"
"Why did he move?"
"Why else? Probably because he can’t see clearly!"
Heavenly Masters looked down, seeing Yan Chuan finally taking action, each one of them laughed. Yan Chuan, at the bottom of the cliff, explained the lightweight body techniques of Shi Mingzhu, Ding Xiang, Situ Fei, and others non-stop and incisively. Even these masters benefited more or less, Yan Chuan’s Qinggong proficiency was perfectly displayed in these four sessions, truly astonishing.
This ti as Yan Chuan finally started climbing, everyone shared a knowing smile.
Tian Jing comnding without avoiding favoritism: "Yan Chuan created the ’Wave Riding Micro Steps’, intricate and profound, astonishingly impressive. Furthermore, he explained the exquisite lightweight body techniques in an easy-to-understand and logical manner. Considering his background, this performance can be described as outstanding. In my opinion, he deserves a ’Performance Award’."
Tian Jing nominated Yan Chuan.
Whether it’s a lot or a little, it’s still a benefit.
Though the ’Performance Award’ is not as prestigious as the ’Twelve Strong’, ’Arena Master Award’, ’Consecutive Wins Award’, or ’Victory Award’, it still offers considerable resources, it’s worth contesting for and obtaining, nobody would mind having it.
"Deserves it!"
"This youngster is impressive."
"I agree."
Among the Grandmasters, more than half quickly expressed agreent, finally determining it as seventh-tier ninth-class, rewarding 100 catties of Essence Stone and 1 bottle of ’High Grade Qi-Blood Pill’.
"Wave Riding Micro Steps" though wonderful, did not create as much shock as Wang Zhengyi’s peerless performance.
Moreover, since the ’Cang Mountain Sword Discussion’ had just begun, there should be so leeway, it would be inappropriate to grant the top seventh-tier first-class rewards right away.
"Situ Fei is kind-hearted and protective of her peers, deserves comndation!"
"The Third Prince has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, rescuing the Fifth Princess in peril, deserves comndation!"
"The Fifth Princess is quick-witted, thinking of leveraging Wang Zhengyi’s montum to catch up at the first mont, deserves comndation!"
...
After Yan Chuan, other masters successively nominated various Heavenly Prides.
The ’Race to Ascension’ had already entered the fourth stage, where the top Heavenly Prides one after another were climbing the thousand feet cliff. In the previous three stages, the masters observed each participant’s performance, understanding the pros and cons.
At this ti, nominations and evaluations were made.
Many ’Performance Awards’ were quickly given out.
Including the Emperor Yan, these Innate Grandmasters knew very well that there were only twelve seats for the ’Twelve Strong’, the ’Arena Master Award’, ’Consecutive Wins Award’, and ’Victory Award’ were beyond reach, and for many contestants, even the top Heavenly Prides, the most hopeful award to receive was still the ’Performance Award’.
Winning an award is an encouragent.
The threshold for this award is extrely low, even if not ranking high on the "Human List", even if lacking in strength, as long as there is so aspect that makes the Grandmasters take notice, as long as there is so noteworthy point, the award might be granted.
For example, Wang Zhengyi’s ’bravery’.
For example, Yan Chuan’s ’movent technique’.
Or for example, Situ Fei’s ’good heart’.
From martial arts to personal qualities, as long as there is a shining point, as long as it can catch the Grandmasters’ eyes, there is potential to earn an award.
Grandmasters continuously evaluated, and in the blink of an eye, over twenty individuals were chosen, each with sothing notable.
While they were deliberating, the ’Race to Ascension’ entered its fourth stage of ’Pan Jue cliff’, reaching a boiling point, with hundreds of Heavenly Prides climbing on the middle section of the thousand feet cliff.
The winds were harsh.
Extrely dangerous.
Looking from the side of the cliff, at the top, middle, and bottom, it’s clear, with hundreds of Heavenly Prides spread out. Among the top, are Tan Dou, Ban Xianfu, Lu Yuru, Ying He, Ying Jifeng, Luo Qi, Feng Nandi, etc., all in the first echelon, while Ding Xiang and Situ Fei, who were previously in the first echelon, have fallen to the second echelon, currently striving to catch up.
Based on the Heavenly Prides ranked on the "Hidden Dragon" and "Chufeng" two lists, and by their positions on the thousand feet cliff, a rough classification into ranks can be made.
Among them.
The top twenty on the two lists are distinctly in the first tier, forty male and female virtually all at the forefront. Additionally, there are over ten not in the top twenty or even on the "Hidden Dragon" and "Chufeng" lists, unfamiliar faces also in the first tier.
Evidently, these dozen or so either excel in Qinggong and climbing or the Human List ranking and the Traveler Departnt’s mastery have omissions, or they significantly improved during the more than a month from the comparison of various provinces to this day.
Regardless of their martial arts, simply in terms of cultivation, they are either at Postnatal Peak, Limit-breaking Peak, or even multiple peaks are present in so numbers.
Overall, they can be classified as the first tier.
Counting this way, the first tier contains nearly sixty people, most of them are currently over four hundred ters above ground, with more than half the journey completed.
Then onwards, each hundred ters at three hundred, two hundred, and one hundred ters mark thresholds, dividing the remaining two to three hundred Heavenly Prides into three ranks—
Those in the three hundred ters range form a rank roughly from rank twenty to fifty on the "Hidden Dragon" or "Chufeng" lists. These are mostly also at Postnatal Peak or Limit-breaking Peak, yet maybe more specialized, like focusing on Inner Strength, or single aspect peak in ’Sinew, Bone, Skin, and mbrane’, showing so gap compared to the first echelon, but not by much.
This group, listed and unlisted, totals eighty to ninety individuals, surpassing the two Traveler Departnt lists by about thirty fresh faces, all newly erged during the province comparisons.
This is the second tier, the second echelon.
