Chapter 288: It’s Easy to Go Up the Mountain, but Difficult to Go Down (1)

Chen Qiyue could clearly see that the surfaces of the big rocks and small rocks were very smooth. They must be the same as the surfaces of the bamboos.
Chen Qiyue stood at the back and was not the first to step forward.
Someone in the top few finally couldn’t hold it in anymore and jumped up at the big rock.
There was a faint Fantastic Beast energy under that person’s feet. Clearly, he had trained it himself after observing Yuwen Bo.
When Chen Qiyue realized this, he was slightly shocked, but he also became alert.
Although the Fantastic Beast energy was not as thick as Chen Qiyue’s, it meant that Chen Qiyue was not the only one with strong mental strength and sharp observation.
Chen Qiyue knew that his physical strength was not as good as theirs, but he was still a little conceited in terms of knowledge and mental strength.
After all, he had the mental strength of a Monarch Level expert. Those people could not compare to him.
However, his mental strength exceeded them by so much, and the result displayed was only a little more of the Fantastic Beast energy under his feet.
This discovery made Chen Qiyue realize that although he had Monarch Level mental strength, it was because he had gone through the Sleep of the Full Moon. Not to mention mastering it, he might not even know the basics.
Therefore, when Teacher and the others were talking, they only said that he had the potential of the Monarch Level.
With such mental strength, he might not be able to become a Beast Tamer of this level.
Since that was the case, how could he underestimate others?
Those people were also in the same batch as him, and they were all candidates for the selection.
Even if their mental strength could not compare to his, if it was purely for the selection, he might not even be comparable to them.
After thinking about this, Chen Qiyue’s state of mind seemed to have reached a new level.
The stars in his brain began to light up slightly. The planets began to spin faster, and the star domain expanded again.
Chen Qiyue carefully looked at the person who jumped onto the big rock. It was 70 to 80% similar to Yuwen Bo’s movement technique.
The reason why this person dared to be the first to go forward was naturally because he thought that he was sufficiently prepared.
Seeing that someone was standing steadily beside him, Yuwen Bo revealed a smile.
He glanced at the remaining people on the ground and continued, “This path is like this. You need to exercise. After this path, you will reach the foot of the mountain.”
As he spoke, Yuwen Bo leaped and landed on the other side of the huge rock.
It had to be known that there were cliffs on both sides of the road. With such a huge rock blocking the middle, there was no other way except to pass over it.
The rest of the people, including Chen Qiyue, also jumped onto the big rock like the previous person.
However, no matter how careful they were, many people slipped. They either fell back or slid forward.
There were very few people who could really stand firm on the big rock.
The moment he stepped on the huge rock, Chen Qiyue finally understood why such a situation still happened even though everyone was so careful. There was naturally only one reason. The slipperiness of this stone far exceeded the surface of the bamboo.
It was as if something had been smeared on the stone. When one stepped on it, it was simply like stepping on ice. It was very slippery.
Chen Qiyue subconsciously made the Fantastic Beast energy in his feet change the form before he could stand firm.
It turned out that only when he could change the form of the Fantastic Beast energy could he stand firmly on this stone.
Chen Qiyue stood on the big rock and looked down. He saw many people following behind Yuwen Bo, standing up and falling down.
Yuwen Bo walked very slowly. He watched silently as those people fell.
Chen Qiyue was silent for a moment before jumping down. However, he stood firmly on the ground that was filled with small rocks.
Now, there were two situations on the ground. One was like Chen Qiyue, standing steadily on the ground.
The other was to get up and fall again. They looked like a beginner skater and were especially laughable.
Under Chen Qiyues feet, the Fantastic Beast energy had already changed its form. There were several barbs and suction cups around his feet that could help Chen Qiyue stand firmly on the rock.
Although the stone was slippery, the barbs could pierce the surface of the stone and stabilize his body.
However, the candidates were indeed worthy of being candidates. At the beginning, they might not have found the trick, but they slowly got better.
Seeing that everyone could stand firmly on this rockfall path and walk, Yuwen
Bo sped up slightly.
This path was really leading to the foot of the mountain.
When everyone walked out of the Rockfall Path and stepped on the ground, many people instantly heaved a sigh of relief. They sat at the side and panted.
The Fantastic Beast energy had to be maintained under their feet and change its shape. Not only did it consume physical strength, but it also consumed mental strength.
Although they had only walked the two sections halfway up the mountain to the foot of the mountain, they were already exhausted.
“Fortunately, there aren’t many big rocks on this road. If there are many, I’ll suffer from going up and down.”
Gu Qiaoqiao panted heavily. She kept fanning herself with a fan in her hand and took a sip of water from time to time.
Wen Xiangqin took a sip of water and wiped his sweat. He smiled and said, “Yes, on the Rockfall Path behind. Fortunately, there’s only a small section of cliffs on both sides.”
“Otherwise, it will take a lot of stamina and mental strength to cross those big rocks up and down..”
