Whoosh —
All the candidates flew into the portal.
Only then did someone cry out in surprise. “Wait, which terrain are we entering?!”
Feng Wu was the only one with the answer.
Proud Snowfield.
The portal worked like a catapult.
Whoosh —
All the candidates were thrown out, and they scattered around Proud Snowfield.
1000 candidates might sound a lot, but Proud Snowfield was an immense place. Once they arrived, the candidates were lost in the snow-covered land and no one knew where the others were.
Luckily, they were all sent to the southeast corner of Proud Snowfield instead of all over the entire area. Otherwise, it would take them more than a month just to walk out.
And the physical tryout was going to last seven days.
Feng Wu had no idea how the others arrived. She only knew that she was falling from high up in the sky.
Thump!
She crash landed.
Fortunately, Feng Wu had practice — she had jumped from that giant eagle once. At the critical moment, Feng Wu spun around and landed on her back. She then pulled a sled out of her ring!
Yes, Feng Wu had brought a sled with her because she knew she was going to Proud Snowfield.
Sitting on the sled, Feng Wu slid down the slope.
She felt as swift as a swallow.
Snow was kicked up into the air on both sides.
As Feng Wu slid down, she gained speed.
What she failed to anticipate was that as the sled moved forward, snowflakes kept flying into her eyes.
In the end, she tumbled into a snow pit with a thud.
Pffft —
Feng Wu fell face down, and it seemed to take her forever to get out.
She thought she was going to suffocate.
After getting out of the pit, Feng Wu shook off the loose snow, then checked her surroundings.
Everywhere she turned, she saw stretch upon stretch of white.
The plateau was covered in snow. A short distance away stood a giant pine tree with rime-encrusted branches. The little icicles glittered in the sunlight.
The wind was chilly, and Feng Wu shuddered.
Without thinking, she sat down cross-legged and activated her spiritual essence.
She hadn’t gotten her spiritual essence back for long and she was quite capable already. It was just that she had kept it from the others.
Feng Wu was circulating fire spiritual energy throughout her body when —
She sensed something dangerous in the snow pit she fell into earlier.
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched!
It felt so powerful!
She turned around to see a frost magical beast!
It looked like a cheetah, but with thicker fur which stuck out stiffly like icicles, resembling the spines of a hedgehog!
The fur shone brilliantly under the sun!
The name Spiny Frost Beast came to Feng Wu’s mind right away!
And it was a beast at the Spiritual Grandmaster stage!
Feng Wu’s heart sank. This had to be her unlucky day. She just happened to fall into the nest of a Spiny Frost Beast?
One Spiny Frost Beast… two Spiny Frost Beast… three…
Seeing the beasts crawl out of the pit and glare at her, Feng Wu despaired a little.
She had smashed into the nest of some hibernating Spiny Frost Beasts. Seriously?
She could try to fight her way out if there was only one of them, but now —
There were three!
Without hesitation, Feng Wu turned around and bolted!
Rumble —
As soon as Feng Wu moved, the three Spiny Frost Beasts, who were moving slowly, took action as well.
