Chapter 1016 - Rean's Plan

Rean's words made everyone cry. Fast? Praise? Was he making fun of everyone? If they were fast, then how come Rean was there already? First of all...they had a bigger concern in their minds.

'Why the hell does he have a table and a chair in his spatial ring?! He even brought a teapot! He's making fun of us, right? RIGHT?!!! Fuck him!' Or so everyone thought...but they didn't have the courage to say out loud.

To understand how Rean did that without anyone noticing, we need to go back to the start of the speed test. Rean did say he would go all out in this competition, but he never said 'when!'

Rean had a very slow start, staying together with Trinio and Kalau. It could also be said as his way of protecting those two for the first part of the competition while things became chaotic. No one wanted to get close to him.N♡vεlB¡n: Transforming Moments into Memories.

Soon, he lagged behind while the top contenders disappeared in the distance. In this test, everything was valid as long as one was the fastest. That meant the elder didn't need to pay attention to the cultivators who fell behind. If they wanted to kill each other, then so be it.

As for Divine Sense, a single realm difference wasn't enough to pierce through Rean's Divine Sense bending. Of course, unless Rean got very close to the owner of that Divine Sense. One must remember that Divine Sense was stronger the closer one got to the source, making it harder to bend.

Fabio and the elder responsible for the competition wouldn't be there accompanying the leaders either. There were no rules to be imposed, after all. The watching formation was more than enough to see what was happening, so they just watched it through the same formation as everyone else. Because of that, their Divine Senses obviously weren't present to watch the competitors. Only Divine Senses as strong as theirs could have pierced Rean's Divine Sense bending from further away.

Well, even if they were there, Rean wasn't breaking any rule. Neither the elder nor Fabio would reveal Rean's presence if they found him with their Divine Senses. After all, everything was valid in this test, including hiding. Telling others that Rean was just there with them would be seen as the same as giving an advantage to the others. They must be impartial as the name of the Royal Family couldn't be sullied. Then again, they also didn't know anything.

In the end, everything played according to what Rean had planned. The Saint Realm cultivators would hold each other back. Rean's speed was definitely faster than theirs in that situation when he used his Enhancement skill. Obviously, Rean avoided getting near those guys while keeping his Light and Divine Sense bending skill active.

The result was as they saw. Rean got to the finish line... where there was no one present. He was quite tired of moving at his top speed nonstop, so he took a table and a chair from the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm to sit. Others would simply think he got it out of his Spatial Ring. Last but not least, he prepared some tea to wait for the others to arrive. But of course, the part about the tea was just Rean making fun of these guys who disturbed each other while he leisurely passed by.

"Ahem...are you guys going to stay put like that? Although the Divine Vein is my Lukimira Sect's, you can still get the Divine Stones for second and third place." This test did indeed have Divine Stones for the second and third place. But unlike the Soul Power test, it did not extend to the top ten.

"Ah!" The Saint Realm cultivators quickly came back to their senses and rushed forward. By now, trying to attack each other would be useless due to how close to the finishing line they were. They went all out on speed alone, trying to at least get the Divine Stone prize. After all, Divine Stones were very rare, even for them.

And just like that, Rean won the speed test.
