509: Chapter 509 A Series of Challenges: Is Bai Chenfeng Waiting for Li Fan?

In the blink of an eye,

two days passed.

During these two days, the public's focus was, unsurprisingly, almost entirely on Li Fan.

There was no helping it.

For a super genius holding two Sacred Mountain records, such respect was only fitting.

However, after two days of observation,

Li Fan seemed to have reverted to his previous slacking-off state.

This naturally caused the public's gaze to shift away from Li Fan, turning their attention back to the other top prodigies.

Such as Bai Chenfeng, Di Yunfu, and the others.

...

The third day arrived.

On this day, Di Yunfu finally reached five hundred thousand Points.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately initiated the Sacred Mountain Challenge, becoming the fourth challenger after Li Fan, Bai Chenfeng, and Qi Daotian.

His challenge process was also highly anticipated.

The discipline he chose was the Limit Realm of Fire.

The process was, one could say, extremely visually impactful, thrilling the vast audience.

But, very unfortunately, Di Yunfu did not break any records; he merely left his name on the Sacred Mountain, ranking fourth.

As for this result,

judging by Di Yunfu's expression, he was clearly completely dissatisfied.

But with the difficulty being what it was, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only sigh in resignation.

And when he looked at Li Fan's name inscribed on both the Extreme Realm of Strength and the Extreme Realm of Thought,

his confusion about Li Fan grew even stronger.

Was Li Fan's talent really that formidable?!

Although he was beginning to believe it somewhat, without having seen Li Fan in person, he still harbored immense doubt.

...

In the blink of an eye,

another three days passed.

During these days,

Yan Xiao and Liu Hongyan also initiated their Sacred Mountain Challenges.

Like Di Yunfu, both only left their names on the Sacred Mountain without breaking any records.

Regarding such results,

not only were the two of them dissatisfied,

the general public outside was also somewhat displeased.

Because now, all those with the potential to break records had already taken their challenges.

Yet, Li Fan remained the only one who had actually broken a record.

Didn't that make this grand event seem like a one-man stage for Li Fan?

This undoubtedly diminished the competitive flavor of the event.

However, they couldn't really say much about it,

as the difficulty of the Sacred Mountain Challenge was undeniable; not everyone could be Li Fan.

Did Di Yunfu, Yan Xiao, and the others not *want* to break records?

Clearly, they simply lacked the capability.

...

Another three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days,

more than twenty prodigies had accumulated five hundred thousand Points and initiated the Sacred Mountain Challenge.

Among them were Han Luo, Yun Yang, and Sang Yuening.

And as for these twenty-plus prodigies,

it must be said, their talent and strength were actually quite commendable.

But they were facing the most elite group of prodigies the universe had ever seen.

Among these twenty-plus challengers, only one managed to leave a name, and even that was just barely at the tenth position.

The rest couldn't even manage to leave their names.

This situation once again highlighted the difficulty of the Sacred Mountain assessment.

Witnessing such a scene,

the general public outside had already begun to miss Li Fan.

But unfortunately,

after these nine days,

Li Fan had been slacking off the entire time, showing no signs of preparing for another challenge.

Actually, the public could understand.

Li Fan had already broken two Sacred Mountain records.

Could they really expect him to break a third?

Throughout history, while those who held two Sacred Mountain records were extremely rare, they weren't unheard of.

But there had never been a single person who held three Sacred Mountain records!

Asking Li Fan to break a third record was simply asking too much of him.

...

Time came to the tenth day.

On this day, several more prodigies met the five hundred thousand Points requirement and began their Sacred Mountain Challenges.

However, they didn't attract much attention.

Because the public could almost guess their outcome would likely be the same as the twenty-plus from the previous day—unable to even leave a name.

Now,

if one hoped to see another person break a record,

that hope could only rest on those like Bai Chenfeng, Qi Daotian, and Di Yunfu, who had comprehended Six Strands of Law Power.

Even though they had all attempted and failed to break records,

they had only failed in one specific discipline; perhaps they could succeed in another.

Among them, Bai Chenfeng held the most promise.

Bai Chenfeng's last challenge was the Extreme Realm of Thought, where he failed to make the ranking, which was quite puzzling.

But if Bai Chenfeng chose to challenge the Extreme Realm of Wind,

he would most likely have a very high chance of success!

And Bai Chenfeng had actually reached five hundred thousand Points several days ago.

Yet, he had delayed initiating the challenge.

This puzzled everyone greatly.

Some speculated his confidence had taken a hit, making him hesitant to try again so soon.

Others guessed he might be saving up to one million Points to attempt two consecutive challenges.

In short, theories abounded.

As for the real reason,

only Bai Chenfeng himself truly knew.

...

"Li Fan, aren't you going to initiate it yet?"

On a certain star,

Bai Chenfeng was currently annihilating ferocious beasts with his Mental Energy while occasionally checking the points ranking board for updates on Li Fan.

That's right.

The main reason he had delayed his second Sacred Mountain Challenge was precisely that he was waiting for Li Fan!

There was no helping it.

He was far too curious about Li Fan.

He wanted to know just how strong Li Fan, the person who had broken two Sacred Mountain records, really was?!

The star domain was vast; the probability of encountering Li Fan within it was far too small.

So the best way to meet him was at the Sacred Mountain!

But unfortunately,

he had already waited for Li Fan for many days.

Li Fan still showed no signs of movement.

"Has he really given up? Or has the time limit not expired yet?"

"Forget it, I won't wait any longer."

After a moment of silent contemplation, Bai Chenfeng shook his head and sighed.

Having initiated a Sacred Mountain Challenge before, he naturally knew about the cooldown period.

But how many days remained on Li Fan's cooldown?

Or had Li Fan's cooldown already ended, and he simply didn't want to go again?

It was hard to say which possibility was true.

However, regardless of which it was,

he no longer wished to continue waiting like this.

If Li Fan had already decided not to challenge again, or if Li Fan's time limit hadn't expired and there was still a long wait ahead,

then continuing to wait foolishly would be a pure waste of time.

He didn't dare to gamble.

Immediately after,

he directly initiated his second Sacred Mountain Challenge.

And as Bai Chenfeng initiated his Sacred Mountain Challenge,

almost everyone outside now turned their full attention to Bai Chenfeng!
