"Haha! Yan Lun, this time, the Ancient Yan Clan has lost face! Haha, Lin Feng really humiliated the Ancient Yan Clan!"
Somewhere in a palace, five men were seated on a throne. Their robes were all of different colors. The one on the side was laughing and making fun of what had happened in the Ancient Yan Clan.
The leader of the Ancient Yan Clan, Yan Lun, pulled a long face and sighed helplessly. Yan Cang Tian had already left for the Ancient Human Clan. If he had been in the Ancient Yan Clan, he wouldn't have tolerated such behavior. Lin Feng couldn't have acted so arrogantly.
"Hmph! Cang Tian wasn't there; let that little boy act arrogantly for a few more days, Cang Tian won't let him off. He destroyed the re-education camp, which is a humiliation to Cang Tian," said Yan Lun dismissively. He wasn't angry, because it was mainly younger people's problems. They were already old, and they didn't interfere in young people's issues.
That was why Lin Feng had been able to leave after causing trouble in the Ancient Yan Clan. If the Supreme Elders or Yan Lun had gotten involved, Lin Feng would already be dead!
"Haha! In any case, the Ancient Yan Clan has lost face," the other old man laughed. Yan Lun was starting to get angry, but at the same time, he decided they'd have to teach Lin Feng a good lesson.
The old man laughed and looked at the man in the central throne: Fu Hao, the leader of the Ancient Human Clan.
"Fu Hao, Lin Feng represents the Ancient Human Clan this time. He has won five times, so he already passed the exam and he can go to the World of Battles, aren't you satisfied?" the old man wanted to know.
All the other men looked at Fu Hao curiously. Fu Hao looked quite serious. He didn't look happy at all, and nobody understood why.
"Why would I be happy? Lin Feng, Chu Chun Qiu, and the Ancient Demon King did well, yes, but they're young geniuses from the Ancient Human Clan itself. What about the real young geniuses of the Ancient Human Clan? I'm not even sure one of them will manage to be qualified. Why would I be happy?" Fu Hao told the four others.
When they heard him, the leader of the Ancient Yan Clan and the Zhao Hall remained silent, including the patriarch of the Tian Ji Sect. Nobody knew what they were thinking.
"Hehe, Fu Hao, the reason why you recruited external geniuses is because you knew the young geniuses of the Ancient Human Clan were progressing too slowly, right? So you should be happy," said Yan Lun. He sounded jealous and envious because the Ancient Yan Clan hadn't managed to recruit young geniuses from outside.
This time, Lin Feng and Chu Chun Qiu had crushed a young genius from the Ancient Yan Clan, so apart from Yan Cang Tian, no other young genius from the Ancient Yan Clan would succeed. It was very dissatisfying, but they couldn't get involved.
"Qing Ling Chao, your disciple Qing Feng Yang has stopped meditating in seclusion, why isn't he participating?" asked Fu Hao. Qing Ling Chao was the one who had made fun of Yan Lun. It was his real body, not a clone. He had come back from the World of Battles.
Qing Ling Chao looked at Fu Hao and smiled regretfully. "He's naughty and unruly. He didn't want to participate. He's not very motivated. He just wants to manage the Tai Qing Sect as he wishes."
However, the others understood different things. Fu Hao said, "You're afraid Qing Feng Yang would fail and you didn't want to lose face, right? If he doesn't participate, you can always go back to the World of Battles and bring him there, right?"
Fu Hao didn't give Qing Ling Chao any face. Qing Ling Chao's expression face stiffened. Indeed, that was his goal. He felt a little bit ashamed.
There were so many powerful young geniuses in this Competition: Yan Cang Tian, Gong Nü, Tian Cang, Tian Chen, Zhao Yun Xiao… Qing Feng Yang couldn't defeat them. Lin Feng, Chu Chun Qiu and the Ancient Demon King were also participating. The Zhao Hall had also recruited external disciples, but they hadn't shown up yet.
Therefore, this Competition was extremely difficult. Qing Feng Yang had no hope. It was better to have a mysterious reputation, and then he could always go to the World of Battles with Qing Ling Chao anyway.
Qing Ling Chao cared about his best disciple, he didn't care about rules and conventions!
Fu Hao didn't say much more. He didn't want to offend Qing Ling Chao and the Tai Qing Sect. Besides, Qing Ling Chao now had the strength of the top of the eighth Great Supreme God layer, and would soon break through to the Godly Ancestor layer.
There was no half-layer between the Great Supreme God layer and the Godly Ancestor layer. When a cultivator had the strength of the top of the eighth Great Supreme God layer, one more layer and they broke through to the Godly Ancestor layer. The problem was that most cultivators of the top of the eighth Great Supreme God layer were stuck.
Not just anyone could break through to the Godly Ancestor layer. Fu Hao had managed to do it by accident.
There were many cultivators of the seventh and eighth Great Supreme God layers in the World of Battles but only three percent were Godly Ancestors. Out of a hundred cultivators, there were ninety-seven Great Supreme Gods and three Godly Ancestors.
But the World of Battles was much, much more powerful than the Country of Eternity. The strongest cultivators of all times were there, after all, and young geniuses kept going there.
The World of Battles wasn't a new world, it was an ancient one. It wasn't a real world, as it was connected to the Country of Eternity. If the Country of Eternity disappeared, the World of Battles would disappear too. That was why the World of Battles protected the Country of Eternity.
That was why extremely talented geniuses were sent there!
"Zhao Zu, if I remember well, Lin Feng killed Zhao Xiao, right?"
When Zhao Zu, the leader of the Zhao Hall, heard that, he was angered. He didn't want to talk about that, but now Tian Feng Zi had mentioned it.
Zhao Zu glanced at Tian Feng Zi. Why had Tian Feng Zi mentioned that? Especially at that moment? Who was to blame, on top of that? Zhao Xiao's education hadn't been good enough? He had gone to the Ancient Human Clan to provoke Zi Jing Xiao, and in the end Lin Feng had killed him in one punch…
Tian Feng Zi looked as if he hadn't said anything important, but everybody knew that there were deep connections between the Tian Ji Sect and Tian Dao Yuan in history. Lin Feng was now the leader of Tian Dao Yuan, so naturally Tian Feng Zi considered Lin Feng an enemy.
"Actually, in terms of position, Lin Feng is like us, but because of his age and background, he's of the younger generation. As a young man, he killed Zhao Xiao, so he didn't violate the rules of the Competition. If something like that happens again in the future, the Zhao Hall will treat him as an elder like us. He was lucky this time," said Zhao Zu. Even though he really wanted to kill Lin Feng, he controlled himself because Tian Feng Zi just hoped Zhao Zu would go crazy and kill Lin Feng on the spot.
When Tian Feng Zi heard that, he just smiled but didn't say much. He wouldn't give up. Lin Feng was Lin Qiong Sheng's father. Lin Qiong Sheng was his disciple. Lin Qiong Sheng was extremely talented. As long as Lin Feng was alived, Lin Qiong Sheng would obey his father and submit to him.
Therefore, Tian Feng Zi had an idea: get rid of Lin Feng. Then Lin Qiong Sheng would submit to him forever, and would consider him his new father!
Tian Feng Zi was plotting. Yan Lun was plotting. Nobody knew what Fu Hao was thinking. Zhao Zu was also plotting!
The few old men remained silent, but at that moment, someone new appeared in the mirror of the room.
That person looked young and handsome. His long hair was fluttering in the wind. He was wearing a black robe with a blue belt, and he was in Zhao Hall.
The man stopped in the sky and then glanced around. He flew towards the buildings of the Zhao Hall.
"Zhao Yun Xiao, will you fight against me?"
He called his opponent by his name and challenged him! Many people were astonished, especially Zhao Zu, who looked quite grim.
"Hmph! Lin Feng, you're going too far!"
