Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1269: Stirring Up Shock

Li Feng stood at the entrance of Dragon Gate Town, while the recorded disciples participating in the assessment eagerly rushed towards the town.

Among the crowd watching the rushing recorded disciples, some of the outer sect disciples chatted with a smile.

"Hehe, the newcomers are quite fierce this year."

"Indeed, although there were newcomers in the past years too, the number was not large. This year, it matches those of previous years. It seems those who suffered losses have kept quiet, not letting the newcomers know the terror of the first test."

"Learning from mistakes, if they don't experience setbacks, they might become complacent."

The outer sect disciples watched the recorded disciples rush forward. Those who had participated in the outer sect assessment were clearly more cunning, shouting slogans loudly, but moving noticeably slower.

Having experienced this outer sect assessment, they were well aware of the terror of the first test; the townspeople of Dragon Gate Town were not ordinary.

This place is just beneath the Divine Sword Manor, and most of the townspeople are those who were eliminated from the torrent of selection.

Here, they may seem ordinary, but in the secular world, any random person might be a Kung Fu expert.

In the Ancient Martial World, martial culture thrived.

The entire Dragon Gate Town has thousands of people. Of course, not everyone participates; excluding the elderly, the young, and those unwilling to join, at least one or two thousand people would still partake.

Although Dragon Gate Town is not small, the whole town is built along the riverside, featuring a narrow east-west and long north-south layout. To pass through the town, one must at least go through a series of challenges.

Being able to get through the town's thousands of pursuers and obstacles requires both strength and luck.

In almost every annual assessment, over eighty or ninety percent of participants fail at this stage, making the remaining academic and martial assessments just a formality.

After all, passing through the grid of tenfold the townsfolk is already proof of excellence.

As hundreds of recorded disciples rushed into the town entrance, the crowd began to split into several groups, some climbing over walls into alleys, while others joined in teams.

In an instant, only half of the recorded disciples remained on Dragon Gate Street. The outer sect disciples standing at the town entrance also began to disperse.

By the rules, outer sect and inner sect disciples can observe but not interfere.

Similarly, Dragon Gate Town maintained order and was not a chaotic melee, with townspeople just rushing up aimlessly upon seeing people.

Years of norms established several rules. For example, some townspeople stayed at their courtyards, and if attempting to wall-hop through, one must evade the courtyard traps or defeat the owner.

Of course, some may let you pass without any altercation with a mere gesture.

As for Dragon Gate Street, it is divided by sections of shops on both sides. Once you pass the shop fronts, the employees and shopkeepers will no longer block you.

In essence, Dragon Gate Town is like a web, requiring not only strength but also some luck to pass through, and certainly some strategy is indispensable.

This kind of assessment is undoubtedly unfriendly to first-time recorded disciples, who are clueless about the situation.

However, those outer sect disciples who participated once or several times already devised strategies and routes, such as where to face weaker resistance and whether to team up, and so on.

While everyone focused on the inner town, Li Feng quietly slipped into the mountains beside the town.

Though Dragon Gate Town is flanked by mountains, daily life requires firewood, and the mountains also hold herbs and game, so trips into the mountains are common, with some artificially made mountain paths near the town entrance.

The first assessment lasts for an hour; Li Feng must leave the vicinity of the Divine Sword Manor in this time to contact the Dragon Guards.

Li Feng entered the forest, ensured no one followed him, then quickly vanished into the mountain path.

After traversing a considerable distance through the forest, reaching another mountain peak, he left the foggy area of the Divine Sword Manor, checked his watch, and the built-in wireless signal had changed.

His watch has a built-in satellite antenna that can connect to satellite signals, not limited by signal towers, after which he used Morse code to send a message.

After completing the transmission, Li Feng hid the watch in a tree, erased nearby traces and marks, and turned back to Dragon Gate Town.

However, just as he was about to enter the town, several people rushed out from both sides to block him.

Li Feng frowned, scanning the lackeys, several of whom looked familiar, followers of that Lin Ao.

Li Feng sneered, "What, you still want to gang up on me?"

"Have you forgotten your status?"

"Are you trying to defy hierarchy?"

These outer sect disciples hesitated upon Li Feng's scold, realizing Bai Yutang in front of them was no longer the one they used to know, and had become the closed-door disciple of the Seventh Elder, a position two ranks higher than theirs.

If they truly attacked him, the consequences would be something they couldn't handle.

"Move aside."

Seeing their indecision, Li Feng snorted, kicked one aside, intending to leave, but at that moment, Lin Ao appeared.

"Brother Bai, no need to rush off."

Lin Ao came out of a shop; the assessment's final phase brought calm back to the town entrance, with excitement having shifted to the town's other end.

"Lin Ao."

Li Feng's gaze shifted to Lin Ao.

"I wondered who it was that doesn't learn from past thrashings. A few days not hitting you, and your skin itches?"

Lin Ao's face darkened upon Li Feng's words.

He stared intently at him, "Bai Yutang, I'm here just to ask you one thing."

"Oh, just because you ask, I should answer?"

Li Feng paid no heed to Lin Ao, barging past him, almost making Lin Ao stumble. Lin Ao's face turned pale.

He was more convinced that Bai Yutang harbored secrets.

"Bai Yutang, where is Lu Ziyue?"

Hearing Lin Ao's words, Li Feng took a deep breath, but did not stop, nor did he respond.

Lin Ao watched Li Feng walk away, shouting again.

"Bai Yutang, Lu Ziyue has been missing for days, you know something, don't you? You might not admit it to me, but someone will come to see you."

Lin Ao watched Li Feng disappear, his lackey approached, "Boss, haven't we just alerted the snake too early?"

Lin Ao snorted coldly.

"I do intend to alert it. The message you sent out should have reached that person's ears by now."

"Besides, where Bai Yutang just went, disappearing for half an hour, this guy definitely harbors unknown secrets."
