Son-in-law's Counterattack

On the lonely mountaintop, the corpse under the tree looked extremely horrifying under the gentle breeze.    

I walked out of the corner and slowly walked to where I was standing. I quickly got rid of the words on the ground and looked at Faang Yi's corpse.    

Faang Yi thought she could trap me to death, but in the end her life was cut off by Ye Jing. She felt that it was a bit of good fortune for someone else.    

"..."    

Ten minutes later, we arrived at the place where the watch was placed. I put the watch back on my left wrist and looked at the map on it. I found Ye Jing had returned to the canyon and was working with a group of people.    

Clearly, this Ye Jing didn't want to help. He was waiting for the end of the exam and those tokens in the canyon must have also been taken by him.    

Opening the rankings, he found that it was indeed so. Ye Jing originally had over thirty tokens. Adding Faang Yi and the ones in the canyon, there were a total of 72 tokens.    

In this exam, there were only 186 people, but Ye Jing received a total of 72 tokens, which put a huge distance between him and others. The number one spot was almost unshakable.    

"No, I only have two tokens right now, it's too little." I shook my head and silently cursed Ye Jing's craftiness. Given the current situation, the only way is to compete with the other trial-takers for the token.    

Thus, I left this small area and started a large-scale search in the entire primeval forest.    

On the first day, he robbed a dozen people like a bandit.    

On the second day, I robbed another eight or nine. When I revealed a bit of my strength, these guys were scared shitless.    

Gradually, time passed faster and faster.    

Along with the decrease in the number of people and the rise in my ranking, the act of seizing the token has met with a bottleneck.    

These days, everyone can guess that Hua Tian's watch has been stolen by me. Anyone who sees the mark a few kilometers away would start running away as if they saw a ghost, leaving me completely unable to move.    

However, due to my continuous use of the six steps of Death, forcing myself to surpass my peak state, I became more and more proficient in this technique.    

After another two and a half months, the deadline for the exam was about to arrive. There were only two days left.    

I opened my eyes from the pitch-black cave and let out a breath of murky air. "It seems that true practice can also increase one's strength."    

Looking at the rankings, he already had more than 40 tokens and was ranked second below Ye Jing.    

"I'm still far from first place. It seems like I'm not destined for first place." I sighed, thinking about how Faang Yi had been killed. I kept feeling uneasy.    

Taking a deep breath and sensing my strength, I could faintly feel that my breakthrough was coming. In my senses, it was no longer the same wall as before, but instead two different sides!    

I have a premonition that it is very easy to overthrow these two walls. However, the result will only increase my strength by a sliver. It is basically useless. After all, my true strength has long surpassed the level of my original realm.    

Based on my current cultivation level, even though I'm at the late stage of Earth attribute, when combined with my physique and the six stages of Death, I can reach Ye Jing's level in a short period of time, but it won't be sustainable.    

Breaking through so easily would probably be a fierce battle against Ye Jing!    

"It seems like I can only suppress it. The more I suppress it, the purer it becomes. I feel like there's a limit to the cultivation level of an Earth attribute cultivator."    

"My cultivation realm is at the late stage of Earth attribute, and the true strength that I can display is at the peak of Earth attribute." My cultivation realm is at the late stage of Earth attribute, and the true strength that I can display is at the peak of Earth attribute.    

"I have to at least steadily increase my strength to that of a half-step Xiantian. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate to break through so easily. Moreover, there is almost no chance for me to make a comeback." I sat down cross-legged and started to suppress the power of the breakthrough.    

Just like this, the final two days quietly passed by while I suppressed my strength.    

"..."    

Finally, the trial had ended.    

As the watch vibrated, a sound woke me from my sleep.    

"The trial is over. All trial-takers that survived are invited to follow the directions given by the watch and go …" Gathering Ancient Chinese School! "    

"Ancient Chinese School!" I quickly got up and found that there was a direction indicator on the map, pointing to the east.    

At this moment, the people on the map were also moving. It seemed like they were all on the same route. Ye Jing's mark also started to move.    

I paused, not wanting to meet up with Ye Jing in case of any accidents. I simply wandered around the forest for a few hours, waiting for everyone to walk in front before I slowly followed.    

After three full days of travel, they reached a mountain range that looked like a crouching dragon. There were many ancient buildings, with temples and altars, all of which were enormous.    

"So this primeval forest is the periphery of the Ancient Chinese School!" I raised my head in realization and looked at the only mountain climbing path. It was formed by a series of stairs and there was a gigantic mountain gate at the top. There were four big words carved on it. It seemed to be incomparably majestic and domineering.    

Ancient Chinese School!    

As he walked up the stairs, the scenery around him was extremely shocking. It was as if he was in an era that was several hundred years old, filled with a sense of history.    

At this moment, I am the last person. The map shows that all the other trial-takers have entered.    

With every step he took, the feeling of life and death in danger became even more distinct. Because, within the Ancient Chinese School, a conspiracy was brewing that would be detrimental to me.    

However, he had no choice but to muster up his courage and arrive at the mountain gate. He cupped his hands towards the two defenders and said, "I am Jia Zhengjing. Please let me pass."    

A middle-aged guard nodded, "Follow me."    

After saying that, the middle-aged guard entered the mountain gate and led me forward.    

When we were almost to an open space, a few hundred meters away, I followed the middle-aged guard and found that there were a lot of people in the field.    

There were influential elders from aristocratic families, illustrious Noble Heir, Young Lord, and even the eliminated.    

Those who passed the trial lined up neatly in the middle of the empty space.    

The middle-aged guard walked me out of the arena, let me in, and then turned around and walked away.    

I gritted my teeth and walked into the arena with great difficulty. In an instant, I was noticed by many of the seated nobles.    

"Who is this person?" Why are you so late? "    

"This is simply a waste of time. He spent several hours waiting for this person."    

"However, I've heard that the rank of this person is not low. That's why we have to wait for him."    

"Bullshit, I think he's guilty. He knows very well what he's done."    

"..."    

Very quickly, Ye Jing also threw me his gaze, and instantly revealed a mocking sneer, "You think you can compete with me for first place? "This is simply wishful thinking."    

The moment his words left his mouth, many people around him echoed his words.    

"Young Master Ye Jing has the true strongest land capital. He is not someone that you, Jia Zhengjing, can compare to."    

"Jia Zhengjing, the Fang family already knows about how you killed Faang Yi. Before you arrived, young master Ye Jing specifically came out to testify that you are dead."    

"Why are you walking so slowly? Afraid of death? "
