The bow and arrow in his hand were very large and powerful. Any ordinary person here would find it difficult to dodge this shot.
"Since you said that everyone who stays must die, why should I give up this spot to you!"
Lu Yang looked at the man in front of him and asked coldly.
"Because you have no choice. You either give up your spot, or I shoot you dead right now. You choose!"
The man looked at Lu Yang, his eyes full of mockery.
"Oh? Really? Then try it. Can you kill me with your childish tricks?"
Hearing this, Lu Yang was instantly amused. He looked at the man and asked coldly.
"Since you are seeking death, I shall fulfill your wish!"
The man's eyes were full of coldness. He let out a roar, and the arrow shot out like a bullet towards Lu Yang, instantly aiming to pierce his forehead.
However, just as the arrow was about to enter Lu Yang's forehead, it was caught by Lu Yang's outstretched hand. No matter how powerful it was, it couldn't move forward even half a step.
"Hmm? You're actually this strong, to be able to block my arrow?"
Seeing how powerful Lu Yang was, the man's expression instantly changed. He immediately said coldly.
"But I have more than just this one arrow. I have three more, and let's see if you know whether you can stop them!"
The man sneered and drew his bow again, this time shooting two arrows at Lu Yang simultaneously.
With two arrows fired at once, even if Lu Yang blocked one, Wang Bodang was certain he wouldn't be able to block both.
The man had already sentenced Lu Yang to death in his heart.
The others, seeing the man make his move, immediately began to sneer.
"I didn't expect this old man to be Shen Jian Wang Bodang. How many innocent souls have fallen under his arrows? This kid's luck is truly terrible. He was so close to reaching the destination, and he ran into Shen Jian Wang Bodang. He's dead for sure!"
"Yeah, if these two had given up their spots, they might have been able to save their lives by calling in favors. But now, it seems they're asking for death!"
"The last two spots are the most tempting for anyone. They would rather die than give them up, so let's see who is more skilled!"
"..."
Those who had reached the mountaintop watched the scene unfold, each of them sneering.
But to everyone's disappointment, Lu Yang extended both hands and caught the two arrows shot by the man at a very strange angle.
"You... how can you be so powerful?"
Wang Bodang looked at Lu Yang in disbelief. He had already found it incredibly unbelievable that Lu Yang had caught his previous arrow. But now, this young man had caught two of his arrows fired simultaneously. What kind of monstrous being was this?
"I told you, in front of me, you are nothing but an ant. Since you want to kill me, I will absolutely not let you go. Your arrows should be returned to you!"
After speaking, Lu Yang threw the two arrows back. His strength was much greater than the bow Wang Bodang was holding. Even though Wang Bodang wanted to dodge, he couldn't escape and was pierced through the chest by one of the arrows, dying on the spot.
Seeing Wang Bodang killed, the other person was so scared that he instantly turned and ran down the mountain.
"Lu Yang, thank you. You saved my life again!"
Huang Zhihua looked at Lu Yang gratefully. If Lu Yang hadn't blocked Wang Bodang's two arrows just now, and he had been shot to death by Wang Bodang's arrows, he would have naturally died at Wang Bodang's hands.
"You're welcome!"
Lu Yang smiled slightly and entered the mountaintop with Wang Bodang. At this point, the assessment of fifty people was all completed. Only ten people entered the mountaintop. The remaining people were either injured or had died in the Death Mountain.
Soon, a military aircraft arrived and took away all ten who had completed the mission. As for the others, no one cared about them.
Only then did Lu Yang understand that what Wang Bodang had said was true. Unless the remaining people had very powerful backgrounds and could ask for help from behind the scenes to be rescued, in this place, death was truly the only outcome. Because in the darkness, there were all sorts of ferocious beasts, and their cultivation had all been suppressed. The hope of surviving here safely was extremely slim.
The moment Lu Yang boarded the military aircraft, he turned to look at the dark, vast mountain and sighed. He knew that someone up there wanted his people to survive, and everyone else to be killed. And he was likely the one they most wanted to eliminate.
Lu Yang, who had been absent-minded, suddenly felt that this time was not as simple as he had imagined. Perhaps this opportunity was very good, but it was fraught with danger. If he wasn't careful, he wouldn't just lose the chance to become a Major General, but he might lose his own life.
Soon, they were all brought back to the previous training ground. General Ma, the steward Ma Xiangqian, walked out again. He looked at Lu Yang among everyone, and his eyes instantly turned cold.
"Don't think you can be arrogant just because you succeeded in the first trial. The subsequent challenges will be even more dangerous and difficult for you. You must show greater courage and perseverance to overcome them!"
"Everyone around you will now become your enemy. Do you understand?"
Ma Xiangqian roared sternly at everyone.
"Understood!"
Everyone immediately replied. Only Lu Yang stood there, saying nothing.
"Why aren't you speaking? As a Major General, have you forgotten your most basic duty?"
Ma Xiangqian immediately walked up to Lu Yang and roared at him coldly.
"My life is decided by me, not by you. So don't try to show off in front of me!"
Lu Yang, abandoning his usual carefree demeanor, suddenly became extremely cold. This chilling aura caused Ma Xiangqian to retreat a few steps.
"You... who are you to dare disobey the rules here? If that's the case, I will remove your name right now and ensure you have no chance to participate in the subsequent competition!"
Ma Xiangqian looked at Lu Yang and threatened coldly.
"Whatever you wish. If you can do it, then do it!"
After speaking, Lu Yang walked alone towards the nearby dormitory. The remaining ten people had dormitory rooms arranged for them here, one for each person, separated from each other.
Lu Yang quickly found the dormitory with his name on it, then lay down on the bed, recalling everything that had happened that day.
An hour later, Spirit Sparrow King walked in.
"I heard you talked back to Ma Xiangqian today?"
Spirit Sparrow King looked at Lu Yang and asked.
"Shouldn't you explain to me clearly that here, if you can't survive, you will die?"
Lu Yang looked coldly at Spirit Sparrow King and asked.
"This..."
"Actually, King Feihu told me not to tell you. He thinks that if you can't handle even this minor setback with your abilities, you won't be able to shoulder great responsibility in the future!"
"But don't worry, if you encounter any danger, I will rescue you immediately. After all, my grandmother said that no matter what, she must ensure your life is saved. Even if you can't become King Heilong in the future, you will live a peaceful life. This is also the promise of our Cheng family to you!"
Spirit Sparrow King looked at Lu Yang and explained.
