"All you sons of the Demon Race, step onto the platform above you!" Mo Bing, the Demon King, floated high in the sky, his face expressionless as he spoke in a flat voice. Everyone taking part in the selection leapt up onto the massive platform where the Heavenly Demon Force Field had been activated. Over ten thousand people lined up at the starting point, yet there was not the slightest sign of crowding. From this alone, one could see how unbelievably vast that floating platform really was. Mo Bing gave a faint nod. "Let it begin." The moment his words fell, everyone summoned every ounce of strength and charged forward in a frenzy. Of course, a few old hands who had gone through this Heavenly Demon Force Field test several times already had learned their lesson. Unlike the fresh faces, they did not sprint at full speed right away. After all, enduring gravity a hundred times stronger than normal was no joke. If they pushed too hard at the start, they would collapse halfway through and would not even have the strength to stand, let alone win. Sure enough, after about a hundred meters, a large number of impulsive demon youths were pinned to the ground by that crushing gravity, unable to move an inch. Once they fell, getting back up became almost impossible. In an instant, out of the ten thousand participants, more than three thousand collapsed at the starting line. Some even coughed up blood in panic, tried to channel their demonic essence, and were immediately ejected from the Heavenly Demon Force Field. Ling Feng walked at an unhurried pace near the back of the pack. The hundred-times gravity had no effect on him at all. He strolled across the force field as if he were taking a casual walk, leaving the nearby contestants dumbfounded. As for Mu Qianxue, though she looked delicate, no one expected that after merging with Ye Yi, her physical strength had become astonishing. She kept pace with Ling Feng without the slightest sign of strain. The two of them followed the main group. About half an hour later, the leading demon geniuses reached the four-thousand-zhang mark. Here, the gravity doubled again to two hundred times. When they stepped into this zone, the sudden increase in pressure made even the strongest demons stagger, almost falling face first to the ground. After the first group passed through, Ling Feng and Mu Qianxue arrived at the boundary. Mu Qianxue lifted her foot and stepped lightly across the line. A wave of crushing pressure swept over her, forcing her slender waist to bend. After a moment, she adjusted her balance and managed to steady herself. Ling Feng, however, felt nothing at all. This was a man who had survived being struck by lightning, after all. He truly was extraordinary! Ling Feng looked around. Only about three thousand remained in the four-thousand-zhang zone. These were the real demon geniuses with true foundations. They still managed to stand and push forward. Yet few could move as easily as Ling Feng. Most seemed to carry an ancient mountain on their backs, struggling with every step. Meanwhile, Canglong Sanctum staff stepped onto the platform to remove those who had collapsed. High above, Mo Bing Demon King soared back and forth, his eyes sweeping the crowd. He kept watch to prevent anyone from breaking the rules or cheating. At the same time, he looked for any promising talents he could secure early for his Black Dragon Hall. The Canglong Sanctum was divided into eight halls: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Purple, and Black. Among them, Black Dragon Hall stood at the top. Otherwise, the position of chief examiner for this entry selection would never have fallen into Mo Bing's hands so easily. "Mhmm. Not bad. Plenty of good seedlings this time." A faint smile tugged at Mo Bing's lips. "There are eighteen peak demon lords. A pity that Yin Xue is already chosen as a direct disciple of the Red Dragon Hall. That boy has reached peak demon lord at such a young age. Given time, he will surely become a demon emperor. Perhaps even one of the Canglong Envoys, those half-step demon rulers, is not beyond his reach." His eyes flicked over to Mu Qianxue. "Hmm? A Cat Demon?" Mo Bing's gaze lingered on her. The Cat Demon bloodline was not considered noble, yet Mu Qianxue moved so effortlessly under two hundred times gravity that she surpassed many demons with higher bloodlines. He rubbed the stubble on his chin and murmured, "Could it be a mutated cat demon bloodline? Now that is interesting!" Ling Feng moved past the five-thousand-zhang mark, then the six-thousand-zhang mark. By now, the Heavenly Demon Force Field pressed down with close to four hundred times normal gravity. Even Ling Feng began to feel the weight in his steps. More and more contestants dropped around him. In the six-thousand-zhang zone, fewer than a thousand stubbornly pushed on. The thousand available slots had already been decided, but the top ten from this first round would receive extra rewards, so no one was willing to give up yet. From six thousand to seven thousand zhang, the gravity climbed to a staggering four hundred times. The surroundings grew empty. Only a scattered few remained in sight. Some had trained their bodies to be monstrously strong. Others possessed cultivation at the high-tier demon lord level. At four hundred times gravity, Ling Feng finally felt some resistance, but he was far from being crushed like the others. "It's time to pick up the pace." A faint smile appeared on Ling Feng's lips. Winning three consecutive rounds would earn him three hundred thousand high-grade Blood Crystals. No one turned their back on Blood Crystals. Besides, if he wanted to reach the upper echelons of the Canglong Sanctum quickly, he needed to cause a stir. With that thought, Ling Feng suddenly sped up. One by one, he left the other contestants behind. His sudden burst shocked the ones struggling nearby. This was the four-hundred-times gravity zone. To accelerate here seemed beyond belief! "That kid still has the strength to go faster?" Some Canglong Sanctum disciples cleaning the force field noticed him at once. After all, no one could accelerate so easily here without drawing attention. "Damn it, did he use his demonic essence?" Another disciple swallowed nervously and forced out the question. "Idiot. The Heavenly Demon Force Field automatically detects demonic essence. If he used even a shred, the force field would have ejected him already. Try using your brain for once." "Monsters show up every year, but this one is in a league of his own. He's only at early-tier demon lord strength, yet he moves more easily than peak demon lords. He's defying the heavens!" "When I first joined the Canglong Sanctum entry test, I collapsed the moment I reached the six-thousand-zhang zone. This kid's physical strength is on another level." Ling Feng accelerated sharply, overtaking one contestant after another. In no time, he drew near the leading group. In the distance, he could already see the figure of the Silver Wolf Young Lord, Yin Xue. High above, Mo Bing Demon King spotted the blue figure streaking ahead like a whirlwind. Even he had to admit that when he was young, he had never been so terrifying. "He's clearly only an early-tier demon lord, yet his physical strength rivals some demon kings. That is shocking!" Mo Bing Demon King took out a roster and flipped through the numbers. He muttered to himself, "Long Fei, from the Northern Demon Domain? That is quite a rare one indeed!"
