Chapter 280: Doubt and Challenge
Originally, when they saw Feng Mingxi directly find Chu Nan, most of the other examinees beside him had the mentality of watching a show. They thought that Feng Mingxi felt unhappy that Chu Nan, who was not strong enough, could be ranked one place higher than him and deliberately came to find trouble with him.
However, when they heard Feng Mingxi’s question, everyone was stunned.
Storm Killer King? If they did not remember wrongly, that was a C-rank beast, right?
Why did Feng Mingxi ask if Chu Nan had killed it?
Did Chu Nan have the ability?
Chu Nan was also stunned. He looked at Feng Mingxi and frowned as he asked, “How do you know?”
The surroundings were immediately in an uproar.
Did Chu Nan mean that he had admitted it? Could it be that he had really killed the Storm Killer King?
How was this possible?! That was a C-rank beast! He was only a mere initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, so how could he kill a C-rank beast?!
“I’ve checked. There are only three C-rank ferocious beasts on Continent 3. Now, there’s only one Romon Water Snake left. Among the remaining two, I killed the Clear Mist Roc, so you must have killed the Storm Killer King,” Feng Mingxi replied.
…
Exclamations sounded again.
It turned out that Feng Mingxi had also killed a C-rank beast!
A C-rank beast was a powerful beast that could contend with a Void Break Martial Artist. How could these two guys kill it just like that?
Moreover, with Feng Mingxi’s powerful strength, it was one thing for him to kill a C-rank beast, but how did Chu Nan kill it?
Chu Nan was a little puzzled, “It’s not strange for you to know that the Storm Killer King is dead, but how can you be sure that I killed it?”
“Because I just happened to see your points increase by 100,” Feng Mingxi replied coldly, “Apart from killing a C-rank beast, there’s no other possibility.”
“I see.”
This time, not only did Chu Nan understand, but the other examinees also understood.
Indeed, other than killing a C-rank beast, it was impossible for his points to increase by 100 immediately.
However, what puzzled everyone was why Feng Mingxi paid attention to the change in Chu Nan’s points.
It was said to have been discovered by accident… Wasn’t this too coincidental?
However, Feng Mingxi did not continue to explain. He looked at Chu Nan from head to toe with a trace of doubt and coldness.
“I’m very curious. How can you be unharmed after killing the Storm Killer King and continue to participate in the test at such a fast speed?”
Hearing this question, the surrounding examinees could not help but look at Feng Mingxi and Chu Nan carefully.
Although Feng Mingxi did not look much different now, if one looked carefully, they would discover that his face was slightly pale and his footsteps were clearly a little weak. Clearly, he had not recovered from his serious injuries.
On the other hand, Chu Nan looked calm and composed. He did not look injured.
This answered a question that had always troubled many people.
Why did Feng Mingxi suddenly stop increasing his points on the last day of the test? It turned out that he had run to kill the Clear Mist Roc and was heavily injured, causing him to be unable to continue hunting other ferocious beasts to increase his points.
However, this made everyone feel the same doubts as Feng Mingxi.
Why was Chu Nan not injured?
Although according to the evaluation in the “Milky Way Ferocious Beast Encyclopedia”, the Clear Mist Roc was slightly stronger than the Storm Killer King, it was impossible for Feng Mingxi to kill the Clear Mist Roc and be heavily injured while Chu Nan did not even suffer any injuries?
Chu Nan shrugged, “I don’t have to tell you this, right?”
“Is that so?” Feng Mingxi sneered. He suddenly turned around and his gaze landed on Angie Prairie who was squeezing through the crowd and looking over with interest. “Angie Prairie, tell me the truth. Have you been helping this kid?”
Everyone’s gazes landed on Angie Prairie. They were only stunned for a moment, and immediately, many people revealed enlightened expressions.
That’s right, it was not strange if Angie Prairie happened to treat Chu Nan’s injuries.
Angie Prairie did not expect Feng Mingxi to suddenly target her. She was stunned for a moment before shaking her head, “No, I’ve never encountered Chu Nan in the test. How can I help him?”
“You’re lying!” Feng Mingxi said sternly, “If you hadn’t been helping him, how could an initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist like him increase his points so quickly and even be ranked eighth in the end? Moreover, he actually killed a Storm Killer King! Tell me, did you help him kill beasts and give him the points?”
Hearing Feng Mingxi’s question, the other examinees were a little stunned. They thought for a moment and felt that it made sense.
That’s right, although Chu Nan’s strength clearly surpassed ordinary initial-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists, it was impossible for him to be compared to a super genius like Feng Mingxi.
With his strength, he might be able to enter the top 300 and successfully pass the test, but it was really unbelievable that he was ranked eighth.
As for killing the Storm Killer King? What a joke!
However, if they connected Chu Nan to Angie Prairie, all these problems would be explained.
If Angie Prairie had been helping Chu Nan, it would naturally make sense for his points to increase quickly.
With the help of Angie Prairie, killing a Storm Killer King was naturally not a problem.
Coupled with the special cultivation method that Angie Prairie had inherited from Saint Hand Heaven’s Heart, Supremacy Oville, it was natural for her to treat Chu Nan’s injuries.
Moreover, this also explained why Angie Prairie’s points had never been high and she was only ranked 23rd in the end.
With her strength, this was abnormal.
However, after explaining these questions, another question arose in everyone’s hearts.
Why would Angie Prairie rather not even be in the top ten than help Chu Nan?
When they recalled how many people saw Angie Prairie and Chu Nan talking intimately on the way here, many people immediately looked at them ambiguously.
“So what if I am?” Angie Prairie raised her eyebrows before laughing, “I really want to say this, but Chu Nan will definitely scold me. The reason why he can finally rank eighth is because he’s strong enough and it has nothing to do with me. If you push all the credit to me, it’s too unfair to Chu Nan. Don’t you think so, Chu Nan?”
In the end, she turned to Chu Nan.
Chu Nan smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I’d rather you admit it directly. This can save me a lot of trouble.”
After saying that, he looked at Feng Mingxi and said seriously, “You’ve wronged Angie Prairie. In the entire seven days of the test, I haven’t even seen her once.”
“I don’t believe it.” Feng Mingxi shook his head.
Chu Nan shrugged, “It’s up to you to believe it or not. It’s none of my business.”
Feng Mingxi stared at Chu Nan and suddenly pointed at him.
“Since you say that you killed the Storm Killer King yourself, fine. Chu Nan, there will be an internal test after school starts. I’ll name you as my opponent now. Do you dare to accept it?”
Chu Nan raised his hand and pushed away Feng Mingxi’s fingers that were almost on his face. He frowned and said, “I say, I’m only one rank higher than you. If you’re unhappy with the ninth place, why don’t you challenge those guys who are higher? Or why don’t you just challenge the first place, Rudy Karl?”
“A guy who can’t even kill a C-rank beast is not qualified for me to challenge!” Feng Mingxi raised his head and said proudly.
Chu Nan’s gaze passed Feng Mingxi and looked at Rudy Karl who was also squeezed in the crowd. He discovered that his face was pale and could not help but laugh in his mind.
Rudy Karl was already being questioned because of the accident that happened to Feng Mingxi on the last day. Now, Feng Mingxi actually looked down on him in front of so many people. That was simply a public slap in the face. How could he endure it?
As expected, the expression on Rudy Karl’s face changed for a moment before he walked out of the crowd and said to Feng Mingxi in a low voice, “Feng Mingxi, since you say that I’m not qualified to be challenged by you, then fine. I’ll challenge you now. Do you dare to accept?”
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the spaceship became tense.
