Live Strong in the Wilderness
Chapter 457: One Against Ten
"Xu Yi, I’ve leveled up, I’m now a level 4 mage." Lu Ke jumped up excitedly and said.
Xu Yi smiled and replied, "I felt it. I didn’t expect the slurry boiled from this Illusionary Flower Beast to be so potent, it actually directly leveled you up."
Lu Ke nodded vigorously and said happily, "Yeah, it’s really surprising, and it tastes so good."
Saying that, Lu Ke picked up the bottle, which still had about 10 milliliters left, reserved for Bai Yu. She hadn’t expected to feel a breakthrough right after drinking it, and hurriedly sat down to enter a Spiritual Meditation state before she had a chance to feed Bai Yu.
"Come, Bai Yu, let sister feed you some Spiritual Liquid." Lu Ke jumped off the bed and beckoned to Bai Yu, who was playing with Lightning in the corner.
Upon hearing Lu Ke’s call, Bai Yu immediately dashed to Lu Ke’s feet.
Then, Lu Ke fed the remaining slurry to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu seemed to want more, but unfortunately, there was only a little left, and no more could be given.
Bai Yu cuddled with Lu Ke for a while, then obediently returned to Lightning’s side.
"Xu Yi, can we still find Illusionary Flower Beasts?" After calming her excitement, Lu Ke sat on the bed, swinging her little legs, and glanced at Xu Yi.
Xu Yi opened his eyes and said, "Probably difficult, these Illusionary Flower Beasts should be quite rare."
Lu Ke sighed and said, "That’s true, otherwise we could level up quickly and go to the area where the level 4 Fierce Beasts are active."
The probability of encountering such a good fortune is quite low.
Lu Ke took out her spear, controlling it to fly back and forth inside the tent.
She discovered that upon reaching level 4, she could control the spear like the Red Lotus Flying Arrow.
However, she still couldn’t make herself fly.
After trying, she found she could only float about half a meter, but couldn’t move.
At this extent, Xu Yi could do it just after leveling to a level 3 Divine Master.
Clearly, the gap between mage and Divine Master is still quite substantial.
"Xu Yi, do you think Ivica and the others have leveled up to a level 3 mage?" Lu Ke asked curiously.
After all, everyone in her team had reached level 3, and she was lucky to reach level 4, so Lu Ke was curious if anyone in Ivica’s team had broken through to level 3 mage.
"Hard to say, probably yes, since it’s been some time since the last major elimination, and I haven’t heard from them." Xu Yi answered, then closed his eyes.
Seeing Xu Yi close his eyes, Lu Ke tactfully closed her mouth and went to bed to continue her Spiritual Meditation Method.
Lu Ke’s leveling up made Xu Yi eager for a breakthrough as well. Because he had consumed a lot of slurry boiled from the Illusionary Flower Beast too, and he felt himself on the brink of a breakthrough.
Unfortunately, when dawn came the next day, Xu Yi hadn’t reached the level 4 Divine Master.
"System, sign in."
After checking in for the 157th day, Xu Yi got up to train the Body Refining Technique.
Lu Ke, having completed the Body Refining Technique training, took Bai Yu and Lightning outside the tent to begin training in the Qin Family Spear Technique.
Everyone could sense Lu Ke had leveled up, after all, her aura was powerful.
"Come on, you ten together, try attacking me." After finishing her training, Lu Ke beckoned to everyone. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
She wanted to know just how strong she’d become after leveling up.
Qin Fan looked at Lu Ke and said, "Let’s go to the lakeside, it’s too cramped here."
So, everyone went together to the lakeside.
Wang Jin hesitantly tightened her grip on the spear, "Keke, are you sure? There are ten of us."
Lu Ke assuredly said, "Come on, how would we know unless we try? There’s a big difference between level 4 and level 3. I can’t quite say where the difference lies, but you all seem very weak."
Indeed, very weak.
Lu Ke felt she could easily defeat Qin Fan and the others.
So, she dismantled her spear, leaving only the lower half of the shaft.
"... Is Loli Ke too arrogant, saying Old Fan and the others are weak?"
"Arrogant? My Loli Ke is an honest person, if she says it, it’s likely a genuine feeling."
"Just one level apart, can there be such a big difference?"
"What did Loli do last night to suddenly become a level 4 mage, does anyone know the details?"
"Maybe... perhaps... probably... never mind, I don’t know either."
Upon hearing Lu Ke’s words, everyone was briefly stunned, then exchanged glances.
"Reverse the tip, attack together." Qin Fan said, adjusting the spear tip first. Doing so would prevent injuring Lu Ke.
Then, they charged forward.
Lu Ke didn’t move, letting them attack.
Because she could completely use Telekinesis to block the attacks, forming a telekinetic shield around her body.
It was at this moment that Qin Fan and the others realized Lu Ke wasn’t bluffing; she had indeed grown very strong, strong enough that even together they couldn’t cope.
Then, Lu Ke raised a hand.
Cheng Jie flew out, landing straight into the lake.
Then, as Lu Ke spun once, everyone else flew out as well.
The live stream exploded instantly.
Because Lu Ke displayed overwhelming strength, knocking all ten people away at once.
Without using any weapons, Lu Ke directly defeated Qin Fan and the others.
She felt that if she employed the Red Lotus Flying Arrow, she could easily pierce through their heads, ending their lives.
The gap between level 4 and level 3 is immense.
"Level 4 is too strong, our attacks for five minutes couldn’t break your defense, and we were knocked away." Wang Jin, returning from the lake to the shore, wasn’t wet from the lake water.
"This is the gap, the difference between level 4 and level 3. So, level 4 Fierce Beasts will be tough to deal with. Maybe I can’t even handle one." Lu Ke said with a little concern.
Everyone else said nothing, silently returning to the camp.
Effort, training, breakthrough.
Losing so quickly left them with a fire in their hearts, spurring them to catch up.
Not long after Qin Fan and the others went back, Xu Yi arrived at the lakeside.
Lu Ke was running on the lake, much like how it’s portrayed in martial arts films.
Sensing Xu Yi’s presence, Lu Ke immediately headed to the shore, happily asking, "Xu Yi, did you level up?"
Xu Yi shook his head, helplessly saying, "No, feels like I’m missing a spark."
With that, Xu Yi stepped into the lake.
He hadn’t tried walking on the water’s surface before, seeing Lu Ke do it, he wanted to attempt it.
Lu Ke followed beside Xu Yi, smilingly asking, "How is it? Isn’t it like the Qinggong in martial arts movies, gliding across the water?"
Just then, a figure sprang out from the water, flying into the sky.
