Chapter 120 - Human Nature

Chu Feng was not kidding.
He would probably be able to keep this record until he died.
Not to mention anything else,
with his current record of the first three levels, even Ying from his previous life would have nothing to do.
Too many coincidences had resulted in this scene.
Chu Feng looked at the points jumping in his personal information column.
The feeling was indescribable.
Although it was not much, he was still happy!
This would be his bottom salary from now on.
This round of potential assessment ended just like that.
Plus the reward distribution, it had only been ten minutes.
Acircle of light appeared before Chu Feng.
He took a step forward.
He was sent out.
At that moment, for the people outside, it had only been a short while.
Some people did not even have time to change their sitting posture.
Chu Feng had already come out.
The moment they saw Chu Feng, everyone fell silent.
Everyone was shocked and cried out.
“Eh? Look, isn’t that Chu Feng? Didn’t he just enter? Why is he out so soon?”
“Oh my god, it’s really him! What’s going on?”
“Hiss… Could it be that he has already been eliminated?”
“Eliminated? No way! He’s a C-rank expert after all. His potential shouldn’t be so low, right?! He didn’t even pass the first level?”
Someone expressed his doubts.
The reason for that was because Chu Feng’s performance earlier had been rather dazzling.
The team he led also had more than 50 C-rank warriors!
Those people had not come out yet!
As their captain, he couldn’t be so useless!
However, a warrior who had just been kicked out by the Spirit Pagoda could not help but remark, “You guys weren’t there, so you don’t know that this assessment is simply impossible to pass! So what if you’re at the peak of the C-rank? You’re still kicked out instantly even if your potential is lacking!”
“Yeah, I can also prove that I feel that even a peak C-rank warrior would be killed in an instant in the assessment scene I have encountered!”
“The way I see it, this Chu Feng’s potential isn’t good! Perhaps he got lucky and increased his rank.”
‘As some eliminated martial artists revealed their ‘personal experiences’, slowly, a considerable number of people present agreed with this statement.
Someone could not help but gloat.
“Hehe… This is going to be fun. The second-ranked genius in the first round failed to even pass the first level…”
“Hmm… Don’t tell me that the guy who was so arrogant just now has the same potential as me, haha!”
“Damn, it’s about the same speed as when I was kicked out. Doesn’t this mean that I can also be called a super genius? Haha, no way!”
Even the old woman from the Penglai Immortal Realm and the old Daoist priest from the Sacred Land of Mount Longhu couldn’t help but glance at each other.
They were confused.
They both felt that from Chu Feng’s performance earlier, he should have been able to pass the first level.
However, there was really no way to explain the fact that Chu Feng had been kicked out in merely ten minutes.
Due to their status, the old woman and Chu Feng did not say anything.
However, the bald Elder Mo had no such qualms.
He had been scolded by Chu Feng earlier.
He was filled with anger.
He thought that with Ye Qingtian around, he wouldn’t be able to take revenge.
Unexpectedly, that trash Chu Feng’s potential was actually extremely poor!
‘Wasn’t he throwing his face at him for him to step on?
This made Old Mo extremely happy.
He pointed at Chu Feng’s nose fearlessly and mocked him.
“Haha, little brat, to think that you would have such a day! Aren’t you very arrogant? Continue to be arrogant! Continue to be smug! You actually have the face to stand here? If I were you, I would have killed myself by now.”
Beside him, Ye Qingtian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said in a deep voice, “Old Baldy, cut it out. Why are you bickering with a junior?”
“Haha, Ye Qingtian, it’s not against the law for me to say a few words, right? He’s already a piece of trash, yet I can’t say anything? Haha, how satisfying!”
Old Mo ignored him. He had only said a few words and had not broken the law!
No matter how domineering Ye Qingtian was, he had to abide by the rules!
With a cold expression, Ye Qingtian waved at Chu Feng and called him to his side.
He moved slightly and he blocked Chu Feng behind him.
It could be considered a form of protection.
He thought very highly of Chu Feng.
He seemed to be able to see his younger self in Chu Feng.
However, what had happened completely exceeded his expectations.
He frowned and sighed.
“Don’t take it to heart and don’t be discouraged. I once read in an ancient book that the potential of humans can be changed…”
Before Ye Qingtian could finish consoling him, Chu Feng suddenly smiled.
He murmured, “Old Ye, how do you know that my potential isn’t good? Sometimes, seeing isn’t necessarily believing…”
Ye Qingtian looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Chu Feng grinned again.
“Just keep watching. The more brilliant his smile is now and the more he jumps around, the more miserably he’ll cry. If you don’t believe me, let’s make a bet?”
Ye Qingtian looked at Chu Feng who was still chatting and laughing with him. He couldn’t help but widen his eyes and muttered, “I really admire you now. Putting everything else aside, you’re really good at dealing with setbacks!”
“Damn, you still don’t trust me. Forget it…”
Chu Feng shook his head and was disinclined to say anything else.
Just wait.
‘After each assessment, the Spirit Pagoda would yield a list.
At that time, Chu Feng would look forward to seeing what those clowns jumping around would look like.
Why didn’t he clarify?
Why should he?
Wouldn’t it be fun to watch these monkeys scratching their ears and cheeks in embarrassment later?
Sometimes, he needed fun in his simple life.
‘As time passed, people were constantly being kicked out of the Spirit Pagoda.
‘The moment they saw Chu Feng, they were all shocked.
During this period of time, there were people pointing at Chu Feng’s back.
They laughed and whispered to their companions.
“Look, it’s him. He was so arrogant just now. I didn’t expect his potential to be so poor. Look at him now.”
“Haha, he deserves it. Arrogance always leads to disasters. This is called deserved punishment!”
Listening to the noisy discussions around him, Chu Feng did not say a word.
This was human nature. He knew it all too well.
People were always like this.
When one was at the peak, one would attract countless bootlickers who fawned on them.
But if one fell from the clouds, when the signs were not obvious, they would still lick them and not dare to show anything.
But once they were sure that there was no turning back, these people would be the ones who looked down on you the most!
‘They would hit the person when he was down like ferocious dogs.
‘The person didn’t do anything wrong.
But if he was weak, he would be guilty.
Perhaps doing this would greatly satisfy them with their inferiority complex.
Chu Feng had always ignored such people.
He could let them lick, scold, and laugh as they pleased. At the end of the day, he would look at them again.
Two and a half hours later, when Lin Yi walked out of the Spirit Pagoda in high spirits, this meant that everyone had completed their respective assessments.
It was time for this farce to end..
