Competing to Outdo Each Other
"Brother, stop looking. Feng Qingluan isn't someone anyone can just covet. Even if you had her, you couldn't handle her. She belongs to Ye Hua."
Beside Lin Zhen, a martial artist with Fire Qilin noticed Lin Zhen staring in Feng Qingluan's direction and spoke up to remind him.
This martial artist is named Zhang Ze. He is quite old, almost a hundred years old, making him the oldest in this Concentration Camp. He has decent aptitude, although he is not the most outstanding, but he has now reached the fourth row of the Boundary Tablet.
"Is she related to Ye Hua?" Lin Zhen asked.
"There's some connection. She was with Ye Hua when she was injured. The two of them encountered several Insect Race commanders. Ye Hua was also injured that time, but her injuries were more severe. I heard that Ye Hua once said that he had two pursuits in his life: one was the Martial Dao Peak, and the other was Feng Qingluan. Most people don't know this, but we do."
Lin Zhen looked at Ye Hua and then at Feng Qingluan: "They're quite a good match."
"But Ye Hua has a long way to go. Feng Qingluan is just a friend to him. If even someone like Ye Hua can't win her over, who can possibly handle this woman?"
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang, I won't pursue such unrealistic dreams."
Lin Zhen didn't mean anything by it, but he felt that Feng Qingluan seemed somewhat familiar to him, and that cinnabar mole seemed to be something he had seen somewhere before.
"You must have seen it wrong."
After calming himself down, Lin Zhen quickly turned his attention back to the Heaven Stele.
Not long after they began to comprehend the Mental Power Heaven Tablet, a commotion broke out among the people there. It turned out that Feng Qingluan had actually climbed to the second row!
"So fast, even faster than when Lin Zhen was comprehending the Boundary Tablet."
"It only took half an hour in total, much faster than Landis's Lanka. Although Lanka is now in the fifth row, Feng Qingluan may overtake him."
"The two peerless beauties of the Fire Qilin Empire, Ye Hua and Feng Qingluan, I feel like these two are a perfect match!"
Lin Zhen was not distracted by other circumstances and focused on her own affairs.
The crowd entered a state of contemplation, and the fierce competition began again.
Time flies.
In the third month, Lin Zhen broke through the fourth row and moved up to the fifth row, catching up with Ye Hua's back again.
In the fourth month, Ye Hua broke through from the sixth row to the seventh row, still two body lengths ahead of Lin Zhen, but Lin Zhen gained some time, which was actually about one and a half body lengths ahead.
At the end of the fourth month, Lin Zhen made another breakthrough and entered the sixth row. At this time, there were only two martial artists in the same row as him. Together with Ye Hua in front, the four of them could be considered the first group.
At the beginning of the sixth month, Ye Hua made a breakthrough and entered the eighth row, while Lin Zhen then entered the seventh row. The two improved almost at the same time.
We were two positions behind back then, but now we've finally closed the gap to one position.
Although people thought that Ye Hua should be able to win the first place in the Boundary Character Heaven Tablet with his lead in one position, there is no doubt that Lin Zhen's strong performance put too much pressure on Ye Hua.
Ye Hua, who has always been number one, Ye Hua, who is exceptionally talented, Ye Hua, who is National Idol, actually showed signs of panic under Lin Zhen's rapid pursuit!
Ye Hua used up the Cold Stone one by one, occasionally raising his hand to wipe his forehead.
Looking at the enormous Boundary Character Heaven Tablet not far away, he secretly encouraged himself. "Come on! No one can defeat you. You've come this far. Comprehending this Heaven Stele won't be difficult for you."
Eight months later, Lin Zhen moved to the eighth row, standing shoulder to shoulder with Ye Hua!
There were only three seats in the eighth row, and there was no one else around them at this point. If it were not unexpected, if anyone could reach the top of the Heaven Stele Enlightenment this time, it would definitely be one of the two of them.
Ye Hua had at least maintained some psychological advantage before, but when Lin Zhen was on par with him, his psychological advantage disappeared!
Lin Zhen arrived later, more than a month late, yet he was still able to catch up and get here. This speaks volumes, indicating that Lin Zhen's aptitude and understanding of Space Law surpass those of Ye Hua.
When someone who has been number one for a long time is surpassed, their mentality is prone to change. Lin Zhen saw Ye Hua glance at him without saying a word, but his eyes were no longer gentle; instead, they were filled with murderous intent!
In early September, Ye Hua took the lead and moved up to the ninth row. In mid-September, Lin Zhen followed suit and occupied two seats in the ninth row.
Besides the two of them, no one else was able to get into the ninth row.
Only on the Mental Power Heaven Tablet side, Lanka of the Landis Empire and Feng Qingluan of the Fire Qilin also simultaneously ascended to the ninth row.
Feng Qingluan's performance was even more assertive. She arrived later than Lin Zhen, but her momentum was stronger. When she got to the ninth row, she was actually a minute faster than Lanka.
If there is to be a winner in the final battle of the Mental Power Heaven Tablet, Feng Qingluan clearly has a better chance.
As for the Time Heaven Tablet, Jinnaluo of the Rakshasa Empire is still struggling in the eighth row and has not been able to get to the ninth row. It seems that it is unlikely that he will be able to reach the tenth row. After all, the Time Heaven Tablet is the most difficult and the fewest people can pass through it.
The Mantis Commander is also in the eighth row, progressing at about the same pace as Jinnaluo.
Because it was the ninth row, from Lin Zhen's side looking towards the other Heaven Stele, she could clearly see the people opposite, and even hear them talking clearly.
At the Mental Power Heaven Tablet, Feng Qingluan and Lanka were meditating in their respective positions. Occasionally, when they looked up, they could see Lin Zhen and Ye Hua.
When Ye Hua saw Feng Qingluan looking over, he immediately put on a forced smile, "Qingluan, don't worry about me. You know I've always been number one since I was a child. I always strive to do my best in everything I do. I've never lost. I treat all these difficulties as tests for me. They motivate me to move forward. So don't worry, I will definitely meet you again in the tenth row."
Feng Qingluan's expression was cold. "You don't need to push yourself too hard, just do your best."
"Of course I won't force myself. How could I possibly force myself to compete with someone like that? Right, young man?"
Ye Hua looked at Lin Zhen again, only to find that Lin Zhen completely ignored him and kept glancing at Feng Qingluan.
In Ye Hua's opinion, anyone who dares to stare directly at Feng Qingluan like that will never have a good ending. Even he himself wouldn't dare, so Lin Zhen is definitely going to be in trouble in the future.
Ye Hua thought Feng Qingluan would have a fit, but unexpectedly she slowly closed her eyes, looking as if she was contemplating something. However, Ye Hua could sense that Feng Qingluan's emotions were not very stable.
Suspicion immediately arose within him. He looked back and forth between the two people. Ye Hua's face was as dark as the night. He forced himself to close his eyes, knowing that everything could only be resolved after he finished his comprehension.
Lin Zhen turned his gaze away from Feng Qingluan, seemingly lost in thought. After taking a deep breath, he began his final contemplation.
By this point, Lin Zhen had learned that the Boundary Character Heaven Tablet, when fully comprehended, actually only had two moves: one was Space Severance used in combat, and the other was Planet Teleportation!
Space Severance is a powerful combat skill composed of endless Space Severance. When countless Space Crack roar in, no one can withstand them head-on.
Planet Teleportation, on the other hand, is a long-distance Teleport technique that allows one to Teleportation to another planet within their field of vision, making it ideal for escaping and saving one's life.
He knew this situation, Ye Hua also knew that once you reached the ninth row, if you couldn't climb to the tenth row, you wouldn't be able to learn these two moves. Only by taking another step forward could you learn the final combat technique.
Therefore, the difference between the tenth row and the ninth row is like heaven and earth.
Lin Zhen entered the Simulation Field within the Dimensional Arena and, using his privileges as a three-star supreme client of the Fire Kirin Empire, activated the strongest Simulation Field.
Ten opponents were set up, each of whom was Star System Stage expert who was proficient in the Space Law.
An opponent stood far away, relentlessly attacking Lin Zhen with Space Severance attacks.
Lin Zhen's goal was to quickly approach these ten Star System Stage experts and kill them!
The frontal assault, with its constant Space Severance, somewhat mimicked the appearance of a Space Severance.
The first time Lin Zhen had only moved forward less than ten meters, the surrounding Space Severance was swept by a whistling slash, and he was cut into pieces before he could even dodge!
"That's the feeling! That's the feeling! Although the power of this Space Severance is still clearly insufficient, it already has the prototype of Space Severance."
"Ye Hua is definitely trying his best to break through as well. There's only one spot in the tenth row. Whoever masters these two moves first will win the final victory. This time, I'm going to give it my all!"
Lin Zhen poured huge sums of money into it. The Simulation Field cost tens of millions to simulate a master of the Star System Stage. He even simulated dozens or hundreds of them at a time!
A single expenditure of tens of billions of dollars can only last for a few seconds!
However, struggling to survive in such Space Crack and dying time and time again, Lin Zhen gradually gained a deeper understanding of Space Severance!
One hundred thousand simulations!
In just one month, Lin Zhen's card, which had 30 billion Cosmic Crystal, was reduced to 20 billion!
After the 100,000th Star System Stage had issued Space Severance, Lin Zhen suddenly twisted a few times in the air!
With a flick of the wrist! Two Space Severance counterattacks!
A normal Space Severance can only produce one Space Crack, but Lin Zhen is now unleashing two at once, which is the most basic form of the Space Severance!
A burst of light emanated from his body, and Lin Zhen completed the first part of his comprehension in the ninth row!
Once he gains a better understanding of Planet Teleportation, he will be able to climb to the tenth row!
Three minutes after Lin Zhen finished, Ye Hua also finished half of his work, almost keeping pace with Lin Zhen!
Previously, Ye Hua was half a month ahead of Lin Zhen, but now he has no advantage at all, and the two are almost on the same starting line.
However, it cannot be said that Lin Zhen is guaranteed to win. At this point, it is not only a test of talent, but also of luck!
It was so hot last night that I opened the window to let in some fresh air, which gave me a cold and fever. I've been feeling groggy all day and didn't get up until almost 8 pm. Speaking of which, even though it's so hot, I can't feel a bit of heat lying in bed with the windows closed. I'll try to get up and write this chapter first. I don't know if I'll be able to write a second chapter because I feel really dizzy right now.
