Does seal script possess great power? My poetry is invincible!

Chapter 7: The Gathering Grounds Begin to Get to Work

Wang Yan heard it clearly, but still calmly dodged it one by one.

The power of the seal character "速" (speed) is as if he has a fast-forward spring installed in him, not only in terms of punching speed and running speed, but also in terms of brain and physical reaction speed!

Zhu Siniu's powerful punches, though strong enough to pulverize stones, could not be taken head-on.

However, it's too slow!

It's like watching a slow-motion video.

Before Zhu Siniu's punch even arrived, Wang Yan easily dodged it without any effort.

The word "flowing light" makes him seem like a flowing ray of light, bright and moving forward in a straight line.

The word "in an instant" can be completed in the blink of an eye.

The character "巧" (qiǎo) released a light and smooth special energy, making Wang Yan feel that when he raised his elbow or leaped, all the joints in his body were as smooth as if they had been lubricated, without any resistance.

At this moment, if Wang Yan wanted to do a somersault, he could do it beautifully and easily with the help of Wei Li. He could do a split if he wanted to, or do a 180-degree side somersault without any difficulty and without any sense of imbalance.

"This person has excellent flexibility and balance!"

Every now and then, one could hear Level 2 Spirit Sprouts exclaiming in worship.

"Wang Yan's movement is so strange, it's like a straight line, and he's so fast!"

"Not only is he fast, he's also incredibly agile! Zhu Siniu is like a clumsy bear!!"

They could hear two Level 2 Spirit Sprouts whispering about several dozen steps away: "Ah, Wang Yan's movement technique is so fast! Even faster than Zhao Mingtong!"

"He's faster than Zhao Mingtong. I wonder where Wang Yan learned that skill from."

A moment later, seeing Zhao Mingtong frowning and looking displeased while still dodging in the crowd, Wang Yan suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Zhao Mingtong was so unwilling for him to surpass him... perhaps this was also an opportunity to help him expand his sea of ​​knowledge.

After several dozen more moves, Zhu Si Niu, a tall and strong man, threw heavy punches frequently, the veins on his fists turning red and the air exploding repeatedly, but he didn't even touch a single hair on Wang Yan's head.

Zhu Siniu himself, on the contrary, began to pant and sweat because he had used up too much energy.

Zhu Siniu angrily withdrew his hand, his pointed face flushed red. He stopped and cursed angrily, "Wang Yan, if you have any guts, fight me head-on! What kind of hero are you, always dodging?"

Wang Yan stopped several dozen steps away from Zhu Siniu before retorting dismissively, "You're wrong! If I encountered a powerful beast in the wild, knowing I couldn't win, I would definitely drag my companions with me and run away!"

The other level-two spirit sprouts immediately chimed in, "That's right! Our cultivation levels are too low right now. If we go out with our senior brothers and encounter danger, we'll definitely hide first!"

"If you can't win, of course you should run! It's stupid to knowingly fight head-on when you know you're going to lose!"

Seeing that Zhu Siniu was speechless and his flushed face quickly turned purple with embarrassment and anger, Wang Yan smiled contemptuously.

From his compound eyes, Zhao Mingtong was also looking at him from the crowd not far away, his gaze filled with solemnity and hesitation.

"This kid seems interested in fighting me, but he's afraid people will laugh at him for using a 'tug-of-war' strategy. Hey, sorry, I'm backing down!!"

Wang Yan quickly grabbed the grinning Huo Erdan and turned to leave: "Erdan, let's go!"

Unbeknownst to him, in some secluded corner, a slender, masked woman stared blankly in the direction he had left, her eyes, hidden beneath the mask, filled with worry, surprise, and hesitation.

After leaving the brightly lit martial arts hall and confirming that Zhao Mingtong and Zhu Siniu had not followed, Wang Yan dispersed the divine text "See in all directions, hear in all directions" from his mind.

Under the deep darkness of night, the road ahead was slightly dark, and the shouts behind me were farther away and no longer so noisy.

Wang Yan's heart quickly calmed down from the joy and pride of his victory, and he called out to Huo Erdan, who was still gloating: "Erdan, we need to let Di Nan know about Zhu Siniu's matter."

He told the puzzled Huo Erdan about being followed by Zhu Siniu at noon.

When Huo Erdan's expression changed in surprise, Wang Yan added solemnly, "If Zhu Siniu really wanted to replace me, he could have come to me privately to discuss it, or ambushed me and seriously injured me. There's no need for him to do this in front of so many people and ruin his own reputation."

Huo Erdan suddenly realized, "No wonder he's usually so cunning; he shouldn't be this stupid... Come on, let's go to the second venue to find Di Nan. He's probably there at this time!"

……

Fifteen minutes later, in a secluded spot in the second arena of the martial arts hall, Di Nan, who was covered in sweat from the battle, listened to Wang Yan and Huo Erdan's account, and a hint of annoyance appeared on his usually resolute face.

"Thank you for coming to tell me. There is indeed someone competing with me, and Zhu Siniu is his tenant farmer, so it's possible that I'm acting on his orders. I'll handle this, you all get some rest."

Talking to smart people is so easy!

Wang Yan was satisfied and prepared to leave with Huo Erdan when his identity badge on his waist suddenly lit up with a yellow light.

At the same time, in another corner of the second arena of the martial arts hall, Zhu Siniu timidly faced a long-faced boy dressed in brand-new clothes but with an unhappy expression.

"Second Young Master, this really isn't my fault. I truly didn't expect Wang Yan to be so fast; I couldn't hit him at all! ...How about I ambush him alone tomorrow?"

The long-faced boy stared at Zhu Siniu with eyes as cold and sinister as a venomous snake for a few breaths, without saying a word.

Zhu Siniu immediately lowered his eyes in fear, shrank his neck, and clasped his hands nervously to his chest, not daring to utter a sound.

At this point, the long-faced boy asked, displeased, "Did Zhao Ming notify you when you were fighting?"

"I know!" Zhu Siniu immediately perked up, quickly looked up, and said with certainty, "He's watching!"

The long-faced youth narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold glint flashing within them. After a few breaths, he waved his hand dismissively, "Alright, leave this for now. I'll handle it. You go back first!"

"Yes!" Zhu Siniu was immediately relieved, and hurriedly left with a fawning smile and bowing.

……

On Di Nan's side, Wang Yan and Huo Erdan simultaneously activated their identity badges, which glowed yellow. They then saw a message from Xiong Li, the manager of the first team at the gathering site, who was only at the Xuanpo Realm.

"Wang Yan, if you and Huo Erdan are free, hurry up and join a team. There's work tonight, three qian of silver per hour!"

Once he confirmed that Huo Erdan was willing to go with him, Wang Yan immediately perked up and replied that he would come right away. He then bid farewell to the gentle Di Nan and, under the cover of darkness, arrived at the entrance of Team One, which was only responsible for collecting first-tier materials, over a thousand meters away.

The bright lights, as bright as day, and the number of servants, which was several times greater than the previous night, made Wang Yan's heart tighten.

The tall Xiong Li was standing several dozen paces away, anxiously looking towards the gate. Upon seeing the two of them, he immediately perked up, waving and shouting from afar.

"You two are here! Quickly, the 64 first-tier gray-haired long-eared black rabbits that were just delivered need to be skinned and their fur harvested. The skinning and fur must be at least 85% intact, and the fur must be of superior quality or above. Elder Yang San's disciple from Fire Refining Peak will need them in one hour."

"So soon?" Huo Erdan exclaimed in surprise, quickening his pace. "We just sent one batch away last night."
