Chapter 2164: Did He Successfully Decipher It? (2)

But when they looked down, they couldn’t help but frown.
“Why hasn’t Wang Teng come up yet?”
Several people were somewhat puzzled. Originally, Wang Teng was ahead of them, but later, he remained motionless in one place, and they caught up to him. They thought that even if there was a reason for Wang Teng to fall behind for a while, he would quickly catch up.
However, after so long, Wang Teng was still below, and they couldn’t even see his shadow.
This couldn’t help but make them worry.
Yue Qiqiao, Wade, and the others wondered if something had happened to Wang Teng.
Shen Yanfeng, Shi Tianyun, and the others secretly sneered. Wang Teng couldn’t even catch up to them. It seemed that his talent wasn’t that great.
He was able to defeat them because of his clone skill. That fellow must be extremely lucky to get some powerful scriptures. His talent might not be stronger than theirs.
Thinking of this, they felt a glimmer of hope reignite in their hearts.
What matters most for a martial warrior is talent.
Since the Spiritual Hollow Mountain was able to test the talent of martial warriors, it must be authentic.
Now that Wang Teng was behind them, it indicated that his talent might not be as good as theirs.
The two of them suffered a huge blow and they finally had a chance to turn the table around. Their hearts were filled with hope.
They weren’t naive. They just wanted a bit of hope.
Even Wen Ningfu, Gadon, and Qi Lianfeng suspected that Wang Teng’s talent wasn’t very good. If not, he wouldn’t be so far behind.
Fortunately, Wang Teng only did such an unconventional act once and then began to climb steadily.
His spiritual power continued to tease the ancient runes within the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, causing them to drop attribute bubbles for him to pick up.
The overall range of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain was quite large. Therefore, if Wang Teng wanted to pick up every rune at each height, it naturally took a considerable amount of time. As a result, his speed was a bit slow, and he could only gradually catch up with the other warriors above.
However, he was not in a hurry, climbing slowly and steadily, picking up attribute bubbles.
His proficiency in ancient runes was also improving.
Wang Teng could feel that his mastery of ancient runes was rapidly increasing.
Occasionally, there would be bubbles containing spirit attributes, replenishing Wang Teng’s spiritual consumption and allowing him to endure for a longer time.
A man must have a good stamina!
Ancient Runes*8o
Ancient Fire Runes* 105
Cosmos Realm Spirit*25O
Ancient Runes*110
Ancient Runes*70
Ancient Water Runes*i50
“Huh?” Wang Teng suddenly exclaimed, his eyes bursting with brilliance. “I’ve actually obtained Ancient Fire Runes and Ancient Water Runes!”
This was the first time he had acquired these two special ancient runes. Previously, he had only mastered Ancient Lightning Runes, Ancient Ice Runes, and Ancient Poison Runes. Now, he had added two more to his collection.
Wang Teng became even more excited, climbing while picking up attribute bubbles.
For others, this might be a laborious task, but for Wang Teng, it was a great opportunity.
He hadn’t even reached the peak yet, and he had already gained such tremendous benefits. Did others have the same?
No, they didn’t!
These were advantages unique to Wang Teng.
As time passed, the stars outside had rotated three times, but the Spiritual Hollow Mountain remained shrouded in a vast white sky.
Three days quietly went by.
One climber after another, but no one reached the summit.
Instead, some had reached their limits and dropped out one after another.
Of course, their performance was observed by the external powerhouses, and there might be someone willing to take them as disciples.
If not, these students could only fend for themselves, diligently completing tasks within the Stellar Academies to earn points for their cultivation needs in the future.
Yuan Mu, Zhulong Shan, and the others were still climbing. Their expressions changed.
The process of climbing was undoubtedly extremely tedious, and the Force within their bodies was rapidly depleting. Unable to replenish it, they could only rely on their physical strength and willpower to climb.
For martial warriors accustomed to using force, being suddenly unable to utilize it was torture.
Wang Teng was still trailing behind, but he gradually caught up.
On the fourth day, Wang Teng saw Wen Ningfu, and she noticed him too. Her expression immediately changed.
Damn, this guy was still around!
“Hey, isn’t this that someone?” Wang Teng greeted, unable to recall her name, so he said, “The one who lost to Yue Qiqiao, right?”
Wen Ningfu almost vomited blood.
To hell with losing to Yue Qiqiao.
1 have a name!
“Why are you so far behind?” Wen Ningfu took a deep breath, asking the question that lingered in her mind.
“I let you guys go first, so at least you can be happy for a while. If I started in the first place, the pressure on you would be too much.” Wang Teng said with a look of concern, “1 worry about your feelings.”
Wen Ningfu: ???
“I’ll go first, bye!” Wang Teng ignored her and surpassed her.
Wen Ningfu watched Wang Teng pass by with his indifferent face, suddenly stunned. She felt inexplicably foolish.
Why did she doubt this guy’s talent?
Heh, those people ahead would probably feel the same way as she does now!
Wen Ningfu suddenly felt a bit gleeful.
Half a day later, Wang Teng caught up with Qi Lianfeng and slowly climbed past him amid his bewildered gaze.
After another half a day, Wang Teng saw Shi Tianyun and Shen Yanfeng. He was surprised that they were here. It looked like their talent was not bad.
“Good to see you!”
Wang Teng greeted them.
Shi Tianyun and Shen Yanfeng almost slipped and fell from the mountain when they saw that familiar face.
After climbing for so long, their physical strength was already close to the limit.
Wang Teng’s sudden appearance was like encountering a hideous female ghost while going to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
“There’s no need to be so excited when meeting an old friend, right?” Wang Teng asked with a strange expression.
The two of them were going crazy. Who’s your old friend?
Why had this guy caught up? Wasn’t he already far behind?
What about the supposedly lackluster talent?
Looking at Wang Teng’s appearance, it seemed like he hadn’t consumed any energy, just like when they first entered the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.
For a moment, both of them were dumbfounded.
The plot wasn’t supposed to develop like this!
There seemed to be an unbridgeable gap between them and Wang Teng, and this gap was gradually widening.
They completely gave up, lost any desire for comparison, and with their spirit deflated, they couldn’t continue.
Outside, quite a few eternal-stage powerhouses shook their heads. Some eternal-stage figures had been optimistic about these two, but now it seemed that the temperament of these two disciples needed further examination.
Wang Teng glanced at them, shook his head, and continued climbing towards the mountain top.
Two hours later, he saw Yue Qiqiao and others.
“You finally made it.” Yue Qiqiao breathed a sigh of relief.
“Were you worried I couldn’t make it up?” Wang Teng couldn’t help but laugh.
Now, he realized why Wen Ningfu, Shi Tianyun, and others had such expressions when they saw him.
It turned out they all thought he couldn’t make it!
Wang Teng couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless. What were these people thinking? Even if his talent was a bit lower, it couldn’t be worse than theirs, right?
“Who knows if something happened to you?” Yue Qiqiao said with a bit of annoyance.
“What could happen to me? I’m fine. I’ll be going ahead.” Wang Teng passed Yue Qiqiao and Wade and quickly disappeared from their sight.
Yue Qiqiao was astounded. Why did this fellow seem so relaxed after so many days?
“I overthought it!” She sighed and continued climbing. Now she could barely hold on. She relied entirely on a bit of willpower, hoping not to fall too far behind.
In the outside world, many eternal-stage powerhouses saw this scene and their eyes lit up.
“He caught up!”
“I knew this guy wasn’t that simple. He seems quite relaxed.”
“But why does he keep walking for a while, then stopping for a while?”
The president and the other two true god-level martial warriors were in deep thought. Suddenly, their hearts trembled.. Could this guy have succeeded in deciphering the situation?
