Chapter 587 Tied for first place
After a brief confrontation, Lu'er's soul power immediately gained the absolute upper hand.
If someone is very close at this moment, you can see that there is an obvious look of fear in the water monster's eyes, just like a mouse seeing a cat.
Obviously, Lu'er's soul power suppression just now put great pressure on the water monster.
Whoosh!
The next moment, the water monster's tentacles loosened.
Su Chen's body was immediately liberated and fell back into the water lightly.
This scene immediately shocked the surrounding contestants who were not yet familiar with the situation.
If the water monster took the initiative to let go of Lin Jingtian, it would be reasonable, because Lin Jingtian understood the language of the water monster.
However, this water monster actually took the initiative to let go of Su Chen, which was a bit surprising, because Su Chen didn't do anything at all.
In everyone's eyes, Su Chen was just like them, tied up by the tentacles of the water monster. Why did the water monster suddenly let Su Chen go?
"so close."
Su Chen fell back into the water and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu'er was strong enough. Otherwise, even if he used the Eight Desolations Demon-Breaking Sword Formation, he might not be 100% sure that he could suppress this water monster.
"It's a blessing in disguise..."
Su Chen smiled slightly. If Lin Jingtian hadn't been so mean to him, maybe he wouldn't have been able to break away from the water monster's tentacles so quickly.
At that moment, Su Chen jumped onto the lotus leaf that belonged to him, activated his true energy, and pushed the lotus leaf forward in the water, towards the destination.
"This guy is actually the first person to break free from the shackles of the water monster?"
Everyone present was in disbelief.
After working on it for so long, in the end, the first person to pass the third level turned out to be a warrior at the eighth level of the realm of transformation!
This result really surprised everyone and broke everyone's understanding.
> "Could it be that the first place in today's lotus pond training will be an eighth level person in the material transformation realm?"
Such an incredible idea popped into everyone's mind.
When Guan Fan on the shore saw this scene, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Guan Fan didn't know what happened specifically, he was certain that Su Chen had saved the day.
But at this moment, Lin Jingtian had a gloomy expression and looked extremely unhappy.
He wanted to spite someone, but ended up helping him in turn. This feeling undoubtedly made Lin Jingtian very unhappy.
Fortunately, everyone else present was kept in the dark and didn't know the whole story, otherwise they would probably laugh at him secretly.
Whoosh!
Lin Jingtian jumped down from the water monster's tentacles with a sullen face and landed on his own lotus leaf.
He had already communicated with the water monster just now, so the water monster would naturally take the initiative to let him go.
Later, Lin Jingtian also activated his true energy to push his lotus leaf forward with all his strength and speed toward the finish line.
Since Lin Jingtian's landing point is relatively forward, his position at this moment is closer to the finish line than Su Chen.
At this moment, the two launched the final sprint for the finish line.
The speed is not even slow.
Logically speaking, Lin Jingtian's cultivation level is much higher than that of Su Chen, and he should be able to crush Su Chen in terms of speed.
But the fact is that Lin Jingtian was not faster than Su Chen, and even in this short sprint, he was still slightly overwhelmed by Su Chen.
The reason is naturally attributed to the third level of "The Six Transformations of Wolf Shadow" by Su Chen.
The two of them arrived at a high cliff almost at the same time
forward.
The lotus pond ends abruptly when it reaches the high cliff. Obviously, this high cliff is the other side of the thousand-hectare lotus pond, and it is also the end point of this lotus pond trial.
The two arrived here, and at the same time, Prince Rui also brought several strong men from the shore to check the results of the competition.
As a result, they saw the two of them arriving here at the same time, and they were all in a daze for a while.
"No way, they both arrived at the same time?"
"Who is first and who is last?"
Seeing the two people arriving almost at the same time, these powerful men were a little dumbfounded.
What happened just now was sudden, and they didn't see clearly who arrived first. They could only say that even if the two arrived first, the difference would be minimal.
This time, it put them in a bit of trouble.
The two arrived at the finish line almost at the same time, who should be ranked first?
"I didn't expect that Cheng Yaojin would show up halfway..."
Prince Rui looked gloomy. He originally thought that Lin Jingtian would win the first place today, but he didn't expect that something unexpected happened.
Prince Rui naturally remembered that he had met and interacted with this young man who arrived at the finish line side by side with Lin Jingtian in the mine not long ago.
But at this moment, Prince Rui couldn't care less about the mine. He was more concerned about who would be ranked first.
This Lotus Pond trial has been planned by Prince Rui and the Lin family for a long time, and its purpose is to allow Lin Jingtian to obtain the Lotus Pond inheritance that was originally only available to the royal family's children.
However, Prince Rui never expected that there would be another person running alongside Lin Jingtian.
If possible, Prince Rui would also like to default on the debt, but he knows very well that at this moment, the Queen Mother's birthday, tens of thousands of people are present
, it is really not suitable for defaulting on debts.
"Brother Lin, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Prince Rui whispered to the head of the Lin family on the side.
The head of the Lin family is a middle-aged scholar with a mustache. He seems to have a temperament that does not change even if the mountain collapses. He is somewhat similar to Lin Jingtian.
At this moment, facing Prince Rui's question, the head of the Lin family seemed very calm and did not lose his composure. He just said: "Since this is already the case, let them understand the inheritance of stone carvings together."
Feel together?
Prince Rui was stunned, yes, why didn't he think of it?
Chen Shu is just a young man at the eighth level of the Transformation Realm. Even if he is given the opportunity to comprehend the stone carvings, what else can he comprehend?
There are thresholds for this inheritance of stone carvings, and not just cats and dogs can understand it.
But Lin Jingtian is different. He is a real top talent, and he has a high chance of being passed down from the stone carvings.
In this way, it doesn't seem to be a big deal for Chen Shu to understand the inheritance of stone carvings together.
Anyway, he won't get anything, but he can still block Yuyou's mouth, so that everyone will not make irresponsible remarks, and they will also praise him as Prince Rui for being fair.
Prince Rui is extremely concerned about his reputation outside the country, because he knows that if he wants to get involved in the throne, reputation is a very important prerequisite.
"Guan Guogong, what do you think? How about letting the two of them understand the inheritance of stone carvings together?" Prince Rui asked Guan Fan for his opinion symbolically.
He believed that Guan Fan had no reason to refuse.
"I have no objection." Guan Fan nodded and said.
Chapter completed!
