Chapter 92: Chapter 92: The Contest of Spiritual Power
Qin Feifei clenched her fists tightly, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.
The words of the crowd echoed incessantly by her ears.
As a Low-level Earth Rank Alchemy Master, she didn’t even make it into the top three, yet the champion was merely a Mid-level Human-class. How could she bear this? How could she endure?
Calming the turmoil in her chest, Qin Feifei’s gaze towards Mu Ruyue inadvertently grew colder.
Elder Qin noticed Qin Feifei’s mood, his white eyebrows slightly furrowed before he sighed. This girl still lacked training, a single failure was enough to destabilize her temperament.
Continuing this way would be detrimental to her future. The best plan now was to first let her defeat Mu Ruyue. After all, the elimination round tested only knowledge, but what truly mattered was the upcoming competition…
“Alright, the first contest has already determined a winner. The next contest will test your spiritual power,” Elder He smiled as he stood up, waved his hand, and immediately someone brought over a massive stone.
This giant stone, requiring dozens of people to carry, was less a stone and more a mountain of rock, seemingly indestructible.
Everyone was clueless about what Elder He intended, merely staring at him in bewilderment.
“Do you see this stone? It is a solid piece of steel stone. Even if our Chairman were to strike, it might not break. Later, you will attack this stone with your spiritual power. Whoever causes the most damage will be the champion of this competition.”
Elder He smiled faintly, knowing this task was a bit much for these youngsters. However, for an Alchemy Master, spiritual power was the most crucial aspect.
“What if someone shatters it all at once?”
At once, someone raised a question from below.
Elder He chuckled and said, “Let me be clear with you, that is absolutely impossible. Even the most talented individuals on the continent could not use their spiritual power to shatter a complete piece of steel stone, so you can be completely at ease. This is my guarantee to you.”
Hearing Elder He’s words, the crowd finally relaxed.
“Mu Ruyue,” Elder He’s eyes turned to Mu Ruyue, smiling as he said, “As you were the champion just now, you will attack the steel stone first. Remember, you can only use your spiritual power; using Elemental Power would be against the rules.”
He was curious. Beyond an Alchemy Master’s knowledge, what was her spiritual strength like?
Last, not quite reassured, he added a comment, “Use all your spiritual power against the steel stone, leave no effort hidden.”
Mu Ruyue pursed her lips, noncommittal.
But was the steel stone really that invincible?
Qin Feifei scoffed coldly, her face wearing a mocking smile, watching how Mu Ruyue, with her mere Mid-level Human-class strength, possibly couldn’t even damage a single corner.
She was the first to perform, and she could only become a joke.
Mu Ruyue approached the steel stone, took a deep breath, and then released her spiritual power. A formidable spiritual power spread out, instantly causing leaves to flutter down and sand to fill the air.
With a loud boom, the formidable spiritual power, under the astonished gazes of the audience, slammed into the steel stone and then, a jaw-dropping scene occurred.
Under that spiritual power, a complete mountain of steel stone directly shattered, collapsing downwards…
