Chapter 2835 Guess?

chapter 2835 guess?

long chen went to the end of the valley. at this moment, the dispirited disciples were hanging their heads there. hence, he shook his head inside. they really were a pile of useless trash.

they had only come to the academy to pass the time, so the majority of their time was spent playing around. they skipped class so often to the point that the thirty-six people of the elite group rarely even met each other.

originally, the elite group had forty-three people. however, some had left midway, saying that the academy was too hard.

the remaining disciples didn’t know about those people leaving, so long chen had borrowed three people from mu qingyun to dress up as them, and they were completely unaware.

these people had never even set foot on the battlefield, so deceiving them couldn’t be easier. the thirty-six of them had not noticed a single clue.

as soon as long chen arrived, those disciples stood at attention. they were all filled with terror toward long chen, afraid that a single wrong action would cause him to kill them.

long chen’s gaze swept through them. after that, his gaze eventually fell on a slightly chubby man amongst them.

“step forward.”

that chubby man cautiously stepped up. the fat on his face jiggled, but no one laughed at him. they all knew none of them would be any better than this if they were the one facing long chen.

“what’s your name?” asked long chen.

“guess!” exclaimed the fatty.

a sword came out of its sheath. long chen pointed it at his head, frowning. “not bad, you have guts. but i don’t like guessing.”

“instructor long chen, you misunderstand. he’s just stuttering. his name is li cai[1],” said a disciple cautiously. this disciple was close to the fatty, so he spoke up for him.

the fatty was crying out of terror. hence, he was filled with gratitude toward this brother of his who spoke up for him. he had never been so moved in this lifetime.

long chen was surprised. he then pulled back his sword and shook his head. “you can’t even say your own name without a lisp. if you didn’t have a powerful background, just reporting your name might have ended up with you dying.”

“yes, yes, i’ll change the way i report my name in the future!” shouted the fatty, nodding like a chicken bobbing for grain. as a result, the fat on his face shook like waves on the sea. however, no one dared to laugh, afraid that they might draw a calamity onto themselves.

“stop flailing, or i’ll kill you,” ordered long chen.

“i can’t! i’m going to die! i feel like i can’t breathe!” cried out li cai.

“that’s just the lure of your laziness. with your talent, this bit of weight is nothing. what you need to do is force out your talent. if you can’t, then you’ll be destroyed by your lazy side.” long chen snorted and tossed a third rock onto him.

he then added a fourth and fifth. the other disciples were dumbfounded. those stones were so heavy that they couldn’t hold up a single one. but even now, li cai was still standing. he was holding seven pieces.

after that, the moment long chen mercilessly added the eighth piece, li cai’s legs suddenly quivered. they suddenly grew, tearing open his pants.

boom!

li cai howled, and all eight pieces were blown into the sky. the ground beneath his feet was blasted away by astral winds.

“what?”

li cai’s legs were a whole level thicker than before. through his torn pants, it was possible to see some lines that had appeared on his skin.

li cai himself was stunned. he stared at his own legs, dumbfounded by the power that he sensed coursing through them.

“i suppose that counts as an initial awakening. your bloodline has been revived. why don’t you try jumping?” said long chen calmly. it was as if he had long since known this result.

li cai jumped as hard as he could, and he flew over thirty meters into the air, causing the other disciples to jump in shock.

“ah!”

however, his power wasn’t evenly distributed during his jump, causing him to begin flipping in the air. in the end, he fell face-first into the ground, leaving only his legs wriggling in the air. that was a both startling and funny sight.

“i... i’m this amazing?!” li cai crawled out of the dirt and stared at his legs in delight. he felt like he had been reborn.

“it’s not you, it’s your parents that were amazing. they passed this asset to you, and you sat on it for so many years. you should have been able to awaken it as a teen, but you waited until now. now, you can still look so ecstatic over something like that?” long chen shook his head disdainfully.

suddenly, li cai knelt on the ground, exclaiming, “instructor long chen, i beg you, teach me how to cultivate! i want to get stronger and get revenge!”

[1] his name is li cai, but when he says his name, he says ni cai, meaning ‘you guess’.
