Zhou Leng stood at the entrance, repeatedly observing the changes inside, recalling the experiences of the previous four people.
The students were extremely nervous, but a few instructors had strange smiles on their faces.
No one saw when the examiner seemingly inadvertently touched a button.
Elder Song smiled helplessly suddenly, shook his head, and said softly.
"You Demon City Army, you’re really too... strict."
The two Innate Masters chuckled along.
When designing the Nine Bends Flowing Water, there was a hidden trick.
Anyone who attempts the Nine Bends Flowing Water for the first time, the examiner must trigger the mechanism to at least activate one guaranteed failure strike.
The students were completely unaware, and even most instructors did not know.
Zhou Leng stood before the ninth bend.
He simulated all possible scenarios in his mind and only took a step forward after repeatedly confirming.
Upon entering the ninth bend, his foot stepped onto a rapidly rolling cylinder.
He did not rush forward but first slowly sensed the multiple impacts of the high-speed roller and other tests.
Then, he slowly moved forward.
Due to the strong light, Zhou Leng occasionally blinked quickly, seizing the opportunity to avoid the glare.
At the same time, he memorized all the details of the present moment.
If blinded by the strong light, he could dodge and move according to the memorized details.
Zhou Leng suddenly realized that the blinding light only made his eyes dazzle momentarily, far from true blindness.
"No wonder I could see clearly at night recently; it turns out my eyes are also enhanced..."
With this thought flashing in his mind, Zhou Leng continued to stride forward steadily.
As he walked, both hands kept circulating True Qi to rotate a water sphere, counteracting the strong wind.
After a few steps, a horizontal cylinder rolled from afar, traversing the passage.
With no gap below, Zhou Leng jumped, leaping over the cylinder more than a meter high, and continued forward. Official source ıs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
After a few steps, the cylinder rolled back from behind.
He jumped again, avoiding the cylinder.
At the instant of landing, the right wall suddenly opened, and a giant fist over a meter high suddenly smashed over.
Zhou Leng accelerated abruptly, the red giant fist brushed past his back, and then retracted.
Flashes, rubble, gale, roller, cylinder, giant fist...
All sorts of obstacles attacked in succession.
Zhou Leng moved forward steadily, carefully controlling the quick rotation of two water spheres.
The exit was getting closer.
Only a dozen meters away from the exit, the horizontal cylinder rolled over, faster this time.
Having dodged it multiple times and gained experience, Zhou Leng lightly jumped as usual.
At the instant of jumping, the left wall abruptly opened, and a red giant fist over a meter high slammed out fiercely.
Not to mention that he couldn’t use Lightweight Skill at that moment, even if he could, due to being caught off guard and the giant fist being too large, he couldn’t avoid it.
The giant fist hit Zhou Leng solidly.
Zhou Leng’s body slanted and fell.
A few instructors’ smiles grew broader, while others sighed or were gleeful upon seeing this scene.
The students from West Sea Martial Arts Academy nearly shouted out "good!"
They saw Zhou Leng completely lose balance, throwing two rapidly rotating water spheres upward with both hands, falling onto the rolling cylinder on the ground.
However, the two Innate Masters and Song Juesi’s eyes flashed like lightning, staring straight at that spot.
Zhou Leng indeed fell, but after falling and throwing out the water spheres, he slapped the cylinder with both hands, tapping it with both feet.
His body straightened like a carp flips, standing upright again.
In mid-air, countless pieces of rubble flew towards the descending water spheres.
Zhou Leng’s hands scattered like a myriad of palm shadows, striking away all the stones flying toward the water spheres.
Then, he grabbed the two rapidly-spinning water spheres back into his hands.
The water spheres seemed to have eyes.
Not only did they dodge the flying stones at the beginning, counteract the chaotic winds, but they also landed steadily in front of Zhou Leng.
The whole process was like a miracle.
Zhou Leng proceeded step by step.
Finally, he walked out of the Nine Bends Flowing Water.
