Wang Zheng breathed evenly. There was still snow floating in the air. At this moment, the route was already deep into the snowy plains. They could no longer spot the Ice Spear City from their surroundings. Rather, they were surrounded by whiteness. Everyone wore protective eye gear. Even so, the whiteness reflected by the snow still caused dizziness.
The world, icy cold, so quiet that only breathing sounds, footsteps and the soft landing of snow could be heard.
He could feel the same active vitality that he felt on Titatitan Star. But the feeling was quite the opposite. Tita Star was filled with life energy and friendliness. It nourished every life. But here, loneliness filled the surroundings and there was no end to the icy cold.
And within the icy coldness was the same type of power.
Unknowingly, Wang Zheng had quickened his pace. Breathing in the aura of ice and snow, slowly, his aura assimilated into that of ice and snow.
Snow Li and Ai Xiaolu who was following behind Wang Zheng exchanged a look. When they first entered the snowy plains, Wang Zheng stood out from his surroundings. One look and he was like a black dot that appeared abruptly on a piece of white cloth.
But the feeling they had now was that black dot had become a drawing. Wang Zheng’s existence was like a piece of drawing and he blended well into the surroundings.
“This feels a bit weird.” This type of was state was not something everyone in the Hail Cloud Alliance could reach. Only people who had lived in such an environment for more than 10 or 20 years could assimilate into the ice and snow like that. To draw a picture, ice and snow would no longer be an enemy to survival but become a part of survival. However, only Hail Cloud citizens could do that and Wang Zheng seemed to have achieved that.
Snow Li’s eyes were filled with a strange excitement. She did not reply to Ai Xiaolu’s comment. In her eyes, there was only Wang Zheng, that lone man who was walking in the icy ocean of snowy plains. He was obviously only advancing but Snow Li could feel more or less the stage that Wang Zheng was at. After all she was an existence that was born in the year of the Dancing Ice Dragon. This type of feeling was very mystical. Others would not understand.
In Wang Zheng’s senses, the vitality of the sky and the earth were revealing themselves to him. The intrinsic quality of ice was hidden within that and waiting for him to discover.
30 kilometres on other stars could be seen as just an appetizer but in the Hail Cloud Alliance, in Aisbotan Star, that was the real test.
Half the distance had already been covered. Most people were gradually starting to have a hard time. It was mainly because of the continuous activation of ability X for a long period of time and they have started to tire. Even ice ability users could not ignore the limits of the human body.
This training was definitely accomplishable but it was not as easy as imagined.
At this moment, the troop that originally ran together had some changes. The ones with stronger abilities were maintaining their speed and had formed the first team. There were not many, only 6 of them.
Snow Li, Ai Xiaolu, Redington, Shien Cronode, Cai Yingmeng and Wang Zheng.
It was only at the Hail Cloud Alliance that Snow Li’s body type could really show off. Where others felt icy cold, to her was entirely a type of warmth. This type of environment was nothing to her. This was the blessing of coldness. So, not to mention 30 kilometres, it was no problem for her even if the distance was further.
While Ai Xiaolu did not have Snow Li’s talent, she was after all from the Hail Cloud Alliance. She did not have many problems too. Except that it was less relaxed and easy for her. Redington’s strength was there. This level of intensity was nothing to him. Cronode was no doubt a powerful person. His strength was unknown and while he had not participated in this type of training before, but there was not much meaning to it which was why he didn’t do so. This Cai Yingmeng on the other hand was trying very hard. After all, he had been here many times and it could be seen that he was trying his best to catch up to the first team.
Shien Cronode was constantly paying attention to Snow Li. He could feel the attraction emitting from Snow Li. In this icy and snowy environment, the girl in front of his eyes was as attractive as a snow fairy. This type of body type, this type of ability was something he never had. Except, this girl was staring infatuatedly at another person.
Wang Zheng, a famous person in the Academy. In addition, Redington had added quite some details. He had quite a good understanding of this person. As for what senior or things like that, he was not interested at all. It was either win and be a king or die a loser – it was simple and clear logic. However, based on the data, Cronode knew that Wang Zheng was not a simple person. Besides, he had no need to make the move personally. He knew what Redington was thinking. This guy lost to Wang Zheng and wanted to find him for support. This was a good thing but he was not one to be used by others.
Wang Zheng must be dealt with. Snow Li would be his. At the same time he had to think of an idea to finish off Ai Xiaolu. This was also the mission his family had given to him. If not, why would he come to such an ungodly place to suffer.
All these had to be done quietly. There was enough time. Cronode was not anxious. He would not make any move. If he did, that move would be crucial.
Snow Li’s seductive silhouette was already imprinted in his heart. In the past he had only heard of her but now that he had seen her, what he heard was true.
However, all ability users did not judge a person based on his appearance. While looks and body were importantly, the innate attractiveness emitted from this girl was more important.
Everyone followed the route and advanced. But the distance was already getting further and further. Cai Yingmeng could no longer catch up, even though he had already expended his best efforts. Strength was the true reason. It could not be forced.
Wang Zheng was not as complicated as the others. He assimilated into this world of ice and snow. The surrounding people and things were no longer important. This was different from Tita Star. Coming here, seeing the never ending icy ocean of snowy plains, Wang Zheng’s mind kept stretching and becoming wider.
What were the externals and internals of the icy cold and lonely ice plains? What was the original source of ice?
The coldness gradually disappeared and Wang Zheng was assimilated within. The Primordial Regression Technique continuously worked, blending him into the heavens and earth as one. Wang Zheng did not notice that he was walking faster and faster and had already left the others way behind him.
The instructors who were monitoring them were also shocked. What the f**k was this hellish speed?
Wang Zheng advanced with big steps. His speed was shocking. Did the ice ocean of snowy plains have no effect on him?
Redington snorted coldly. Wang Zheng, as expected liked to be the centre of attention. But what was the use of completing the mission so well here. At most, his results would be better. If he accidentally died, that would be interesting. Redington maintained his speed and followed beside Cronode. He could see that while Cronode had no reaction on the surface but there was unhappiness simmering in his eyes. This type of people was used to looking down on people. While he had toned down upon arrival at the Elite Academy, he did not change at all. And Wang Zheng who did not take him seriously would definitely irritate Cronode. Once irritated, he would push this irritation further.
Redington knew that it was not that easy to incite Cronode. Ai Xiaolu was not one to be bullied and Wang Zheng was not easier to deal with as well. However, once there was a chance, Cronode would definitely have the courage to do it.
Snow Li and Ai Xiaolu were also speechless. What was Wang Zheng doing?
Obviously there was no need to run like this. It was very dangerous to run around blindly in the icy plains and there was no need to try so hard. Wang Zheng’s silhouette had already disappeared into the snow.
The instructors were all stunned. They have seen prideful students, students who did not listen to instructions but they had never seen this type of… madness.
Wang Zheng had already left the intended route and broken the tracing bracelet. It was definitely a death wish to enter into the deep icy ocean of snowy plains alone.
