Chapter 121: Supplementary Weapon in War

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

How fast was the speed of light? In an instant, the entire arena, and even the entire pocket dimension, was shrouded in white light.

The examinees and examiners were instantly taken aback.

A moment ago, they were all doing the same time, which was staring intently at Fang Zhengzhi. However, in a blink of an eye, they could only see one colour in the eyes. That was very, an extremely pure white…

Just like milk.

However, this milk white wasn’t comfortable, just like daggers that stabbed through the skin of their eyes, drilling deep into their eyes.

An intense pain overwhelmed them.

”Ah!”

”Ah… ah ah…”

”My eyes!”

Next, the entire pocket dimension descended into chaos.

Because, nobody could see a thing, and nobody knew what was happening. Their vision had already been completed filled with white, or another way of putting it was, they had been temporarily blinded.

”Ah, I can’t see anymore, am I blind? Why can’t I see a thing!”

”What is this all about?!”

What is man’s greatest fear?

That was definitely the danger of the unknown. Hence, after being unable to see, everybody began to shout and scream continuously. The entire situation descended into chaos, and some examinees even instinctively stood up from their chairs and prepared to run.

However, they were quickly tripped by their friends beside them.

”Ah, who stepped on my face!”

”Pain!”

Excruciating cries combined with the round of falling down and faces hitting the ground echoed about, playing out a magnificent symphony of an imminent end of the world.

However, no matter what they did, they were still unable to see.

They could only wait for their vision to gradually recover.

After nobody knew how long, the whiteness in the crowd’s visions began to disperse, replaced by spots of green. As the green slowly began to spread, the surrounding scenery also gradually turned from a blurry mess into something clear...

Next, the entire world returned back into their eyes.

However…

After everybody’s visions had recovered.

The scene on the arena caused them to instantly widen their eyes again, each of them filled with an expression of disbelief. Because, other than Fang Zhengzhi, there was nobody else on the arena.

”Where is Yan Xiu?! Where did Yan Xiu go to?”

Fang Zhengzhi stood very patiently on the arena. After hearing their words, he pointed with his right hand towards Yan Xiu, who was sitting on the ground with a flustered expression. His left hand quickly kept a ink-coloured object back into his pocket.

”Yan Xiu fell off the stage?!”

”What was that all about, why was there such a blinding light?”

”What a powerful light, it is even more powerful than the sun!”

After the crowd discovered that Yan Xiu had landed below the arena, they became even more shocked. Nobody bothered to find out who had stepped on whose face, because, they were more concerned about what had just happened.

Han Changfeng’s vision had also returned at this moment. As the chief imperial messenger from the Imperial Academy, his cultivation naturally cannot be compared to the average examinee.

For example, even though he clearly couldn’t see a thing just now, he didn’t move at all.

What joke was this…

Even if he wasn’t able to see, he would still be able to hear clearly with his ears. If there really was danger around him, with his perceptive capabilities, he would definitely be able to realise it. Moreover, this was also the pocket dimension!

But, when he saw clearly the scene in front of him, he couldn’t quite contain the shock in his eyes.

”Actually, I’ve one technique that I have yet to use?”

Han Changfeng suddenly recalled the words Fang Zhengzhi spoke to Yan Xiu on the arena.

One technique?

Was this the technique that Fang Zhengzhi all along didn’t use?

Mysterious. His heart was now somewhat in confused. If that ray of light was really caused by Fang Zhengzhi, then, how did he achieve it?

Ability...

That’s impossible! Not mentioning that Fang Zhengzhi was only at Star Conglomerate, even one in the Heavenly Reflection State wouldn’t be able to achieve that! Then, there was only one possibility. It was treasure, Fang Zhengzhi hid a fearsome treasure on his body!

What was that?

”I told you all to look carefully, yet you all really looked carefully… flash grenade, I believe none of you had ever seen this before?” Fang Zhengzhi met the shocked gazes that shot towards him, and sighed in his heart. He twitched his mouth with a face filled with innocence.

This was the real advanced technology, the product of chemistry.

Of course, a long time ago, Sun Tzu had already mentioned in his chapter, Attack by Stratagem, that a flash grenade used powerful light to hinder the opponent’s vision, and was a supplementary weapon in war.

However…

The light from the flash grenade at that time was indeed nothing too special. However, the one Fang Zhengzhi used now, even though it was nothing compared to the modern military ones, but the powerful light could still blind people for at least two minutes.

Two minutes? In this world, that was enough to achieve anything.

When Yan Xiu looked at Fang Zhengzhi again, his expression seemed somewhat complicated...

In his memories, the only person who could create such powerful and blinding light so quickly seemed to only be his grandfather.

Fang Zhengzhi?
