147 Chapter 147
Then, with a fluctuation of Chu Feng's thoughts, the golden light of the investiture of the gods list descended once more.
"Why does it look so excited?"
Seeing the constantly shaking investiture of the gods list, Chu Feng momentarily suspected if it also lusted after beauty.
Speaking of which, cultivators should stay away from women, but Chu Feng seemed to be quite poor in this regard.
Therefore, he always felt that while he practiced Daoist methods, he would never join a pure Daoist sect.
While he was lost in thought, Xiao Wu directly splashed water from the Immortal Pool on him to bring him back to his senses.
Then Chu Feng pretended to be serious, blowing out a breath of Primordial Violet Qi. After circling the investiture of the gods list a few times, it rapidly expanded to cover the entire Ziyao Palace.
In an instant, the investiture of the gods list sprinkled golden starlight, which quickly created small ripples upon landing on everyone's smooth skin.
Subsequently, a massive airwave surged through the entire Ziyao Palace, splashing out half of the water from the Immortal Pool.
The quality of the six women's clothes and pants seemed poor; they were blown into various pieces, and some people lost their footing and fell directly into the water.
This wasn't all, as the surrounding temperature began to gradually rise.
A high temperature of forty-five degrees Celsius instantly melted into the air, making it extremely sultry.
"It's so hot!"
Xiao Wu jumped in anxiety, but as soon as she let go to head for the shore, her spring-like radiance was exposed. Fortunately, Zhu Zhuqing looked out for her and specifically brought her something to wear, though it was still the kind of transparent and flimsy clothing.
But she had no choice but to wear it; otherwise, she wouldn't survive such high temperatures, especially since they didn't have divine force yet.
Chu Feng then said, "Alright, your abilities have been temporarily taken away by the investiture of the gods list. Next, you'll have to show your own skills. Remember, no going into the water."
The investiture of the gods list seemed to understand worldly ways as well. First, it floated out a warning message saying no going into the water, and then it flipped itself over as a gesture of politeness.
Bibi Dong was a bit indignant, pouting as she complained, "You didn't give us any preparation. We're just starting like this? That's too sloppy."
Chu Feng smiled. "Well then, everyone do the horse stance. Good luck to you all."
"You, are you intentionally making things difficult for us?"
Xiao Wu was also displeased. As she spoke, she nearly sprained her ankle; it seemed she was very unaccustomed to being without divine force.
Qian Renxue gathered and tied up her beautiful hair to allow for more flexible movement. Then, she found a relatively open spot and squatted down.
"I'm going to prove to you all who has the strongest endurance."
Her directness and compliance made the other women grit their teeth, giving them no chance to argue with Chu Feng.
So Ah Yin followed suit. She was right next to Qian Renxue, and with a determined look in her eyes, she squatted down.
Bibi Dong was a bit angry—angry at Chu Feng and even angrier at Qian Renxue. How could her own daughter be so submissive to the man she liked?
Then she squatted down. Something like the horse stance was as easy as turning a hand for her, the Supreme Pontiff.
She could only accept reality; otherwise, wouldn't her status in Chu Feng's heart drop?
When The two Zhu sisters saw this scene, they looked at each other. As former rivals and enemies, they both showed the same expression of embarrassment.
However, it was impossible for them to completely dislike Chu Feng. After all, Chu Feng had indeed looked after them along the way.
It was just that the thought of having their attack speed ruthlessly increased if they failed the horse stance was a hurdle they couldn't get over in their hearts.
Then they obediently squatted down anyway; even if it wasn't for the prize, they had to do it for their pride.
Xiao Wu naturally had nothing to say and thought it was better to just squat. She believed she definitely wouldn't be the last one.
Next, the six of them were all concentrated on their horse stance, trying to mobilize any super energy they might still have to support themselves.
But after a few minutes, they realized this was pure torture. The high temperature caused a large amount of sweat to evaporate from their bodies, flowing down their smooth skin like springs. A layer of water could even be seen slowly rising on the grass.
This wasn't an exaggeration, because the six of them were not ordinary people. Furthermore, after their investiture, their physical fitness and mental state had undergone permanent leaps. Thus, their lower limit of endurance was several times higher than that of ordinary people, and the conditions they manifested were also completely different.
"So tired~"
As a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, Ah Yin was very used to enduring things. But without the effect of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, she discovered she was exceptionally fragile.
Bibi Dong felt the same way. She was once the Supreme Pontiff above ten thousand people, yet now she actually found such a small matter difficult.
But more than the physical and mental discomfort, what was even more upsetting was seeing Chu Feng lounging comfortably in a deck chair, having somehow produced a cold drink from somewhere.
Just watching Chu Feng's Adam's apple bob up and down as the drink passed through, Xiao Wu's drool flowed down the corner of her mouth.
But none of them spoke, because it would waste strength. It was best for them to maintain their current posture without moving an inch.
At this time, Chu Feng stood up again and set up a tent, even intentionally showing off the high-quality soft cushions he had prepared.
They naturally knew what this meant. Chu Feng's intention was clearly that he was waiting for the first person to fail, and failure would result in a good 'reward' from him.
Moreover, Chu Feng's confident expression was truly infuriating. He seemingly already felt that someone was about to fail.
Immediately after, Chu Feng began to spray himself with some perfume that had a refreshing effect. He also finished the remaining four Great Tonic Pills in his hand. He was completely prepared with full battle intent, not caring at all if his blood energy would soar to the limit.
But even if it soared to the limit, couldn't it be consumed by increasing the attack speed output?
Then, thud~
Bibi Dong fell to the side; she became the first person to be out.
As expected, the years of hard work in Spirit Hall had a significant impact on her. Furthermore, she often had a temper; being able to hold on was actually already a good thing.
But she was unwilling. She knew clearly that she hadn't been able to summon even a sliver of the explosive power she might still possess. She also knew she had been careless because Qian Renxue's persistence had caused her thoughts to wander.
However, the fact was settled. Bibi Dong had no choice but to push herself up and walk toward the tent.
She seemed to have gained a bit of insight. Since she couldn't achieve success, then the moment of failure would be her time to perform.
As long as she was composed and joyful, it would show that she was also a winner on another level of the special training—the winner in obeying the training punishment.
So Bibi Dong quickened her pace, even being overly proactive. To her, it seemed not like a punishment, but a reward.
"Come on, let me see how high your combat power can be after this period of time."
Bibi Dong was also swaggering, acting very casual and proactive in front of the tent, completely revealing her spring-like radiance.
Chu Feng pinched his forehead. This was a bit different from what he had imagined.
But well, sometimes you have to fight against the odds; fighting against the odds is truly wild.
