Wu Tian smiled and said, "Is that so? Then I shall have a good look at just how capable you are."
"I only sincerely hope you don't disappoint me."
Such words, upon reaching Zhang Yi's ears, were nothing short of mockery.
Zhang Yi, as the chief disciple, was naturally a proud individual. Wu Tian's words almost made him explode with anger.
He turned to Hu Gaoshan and said, "Sect Master, please state the trial quickly."
"I can't stand him anymore. I must make him shut up!"
Hu Gaoshan nodded and said, "Don't get so agitated. I can tell he's saying this deliberately, his aim is to attack your mind. You mustn't fall for his trick!"
Hearing this, Wu Tian couldn't help but chuckle.
This Hu Gaoshan was truly imaginative, to come up with such a theory. He was clearly suffering from paranoid delusions.
Next, he heard Hu Gaoshan say, "This trial is not complicated, nor is it simple."
"As you know, our Feitian Sect specializes in lightness skills, and lightness skills represent jumping ability. Therefore, in the end, we will compete on who can jump higher."
"I will bind a jumping height detection instrument to your feet. You just need to jump."
After speaking, Hu Gaoshan waved his hand, and someone immediately came forward, holding two instruments.
Wu Tian took the instrument and tied it to his feet.
The instrument had virtually no weight, so it had no impact on his jump.
After tying it on, Wu Tian looked at Zhang Yi and smiled, "Since I am the guest, I shall let you jump first."
"It's a good opportunity for me to witness the demeanor of your Feitian Sect's chief disciple."
Zhang Yi snorted and said, "What are you pretending for? I think you're just too nervous, so you don't dare to jump first?"
"I've seen through people like you long ago. You're just someone who only knows how to put on a show."
"For someone like you to want to compete with me is beneath me!"
"Let me tell you, after you see my results, you will only fear me more. Perhaps you won't even be able to stand by then!"
Wu Tian shrugged and said, "Yes, yes, whatever you say is right."
"In that case, please begin your performance!"
"I also want to see what kind of skill it is that will make me unable to stand!"
In Zhang Yi's view, Wu Tian's demeanor was merely feigned nonchalance.
He refused to believe that after practicing lightness skills for over twenty years, he couldn't compare to Wu Tian.
Therefore, he said, "You arrogant and ignorant fellow, open your dog eyes and see what true lightness skill is!"
With that, he closed his eyes and held his breath, clearly mobilizing his internal energy.
After a moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and leaped towards the sky!
Admittedly, his lightness skill was indeed extraordinary.
With just that single push-off, his entire body instantly vanished, soaring into the clouds like an arrow aimed at the heavens.
"Hmm," Wu Tian said, looking at the sky with admiration, "Impressive!"
Hu Gaoshan thought Wu Tian was intimidated.
He immediately smiled and said, "What's wrong? Are you scared now? I told you, you should have been scared long ago."
"Our Feitian Sect's 'Feitian Divine Skill' has been improved over generations. It is the highest-level lightness skill in the martial world."
"Even the Green Winged Bat King Wei Yixiao lost to our founding master back then."
"For you to want to compete with us in lightness skills is like a moth flying into a flame!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "No, I was just sighing a little. Why are you boasting? Isn't that a bit much?"
Wu Tian's teasing tone immediately displeased Hu Gaoshan.
His expression darkened again, and he snorted, "Keep being stubborn. There will be a time when you'll have to back down!"
Soon, with a sound of breaking air, the clouds parted again, and a figure landed straight on the ground.
That person was, of course, Zhang Yi.
He appeared very composed, and someone immediately removed the height detection instrument from his feet.
"How was the height?" Hu Gaoshan asked impatiently.
The person looked at the instrument and then said with a look of shock, "Reporting to the Sect Master, Senior Brother Zhang's result is... one hundred and eighty meters!"
"What?!" Hearing this answer, Hu Gaoshan and Hu Kai were both greatly shocked.
Hu Kai stared at Zhang Yi with wide eyes and said, "Zhang Yi, what's going on? Why can you suddenly jump so high?"
"Wasn't your previous record one hundred and fifty meters?"
Zhang Yi said calmly, "I've trained a bit more in private, so my skill has increased."
"Is that so," Hu Kai exclaimed, "You truly live up to being our chief disciple. Your skill is indeed impressive!"
"If you train for a few more years, won't you surpass my father?"
Hu Gaoshan also laughed heartily, "Haha, Zhang Yi, you truly make me proud. With a disciple like you, why should our Feitian Sect worry about its development!"
Zhang Yi said, "This is what I should do as a disciple of the Feitian Sect."
"If I can't even do this, how can I repay the Feitian Sect for its cultivation and nurturing?"
Hu Gaoshan nodded repeatedly, "Well said. My appreciation for you seems to deepen further."
Watching Zhang Yi's demeanor, Wu Tian couldn't help but inwardly complain.
Zhang Yi actually accused him of putting on a show. Come on, who was really putting on a show here?
In front of Zhang Yi, he had to admit defeat!
As he was thinking this, Zhang Yi turned his head to look at him.
Zhang Yi said coldly, "Now that you've witnessed my strength, do you have anything else to say?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Amazing, amazing. You're not even human anymore, you're practically a helicopter!"
Zhang Yi only wanted to see Wu Tian's shocked expression, not his teasing.
So he said grimly, "You still dare to speak to me in such a tone? Have you no shame?"
Wu Tian looked at him like he was an idiot and said, "No, what does that have to do with shame? I don't seem to understand what you're saying!"
Zhang Yi said angrily, "You clearly know you're no match for me, so why are you acting so relaxed?"
"If you're scared, just say it. Stop pretending. This shouldn't be your expression at all!"
Wu Tian laughed even harder and said, "Why are you so anxious? Do I have to listen to you about what expression I should have? Aren't you being a bit too overbearing?"
