Ti flew by, and in the blink of an eye it was already the day of the Pill Tower's Five Great Clans' assessnt.
The location for this assessnt was set within the inner region of Holy Pill City, inside a grand hall that had been built specifically for this purpose.
Of course, this kind of assessnt was not held in secrecy, but rather in a semi-public manner. So forces with a certain level of qualification would all rush over when the assessnt began to watch.
After all, the positions of the Five Great Clans were constantly coveted by countless people. Because everyone knew, this was one of the best shortcuts to enter the upper echelon of the Pill Tower.
And once soone managed to cling onto the giant tree that was the Pill Tower, the reputation of their force would undoubtedly skyrocket overnight.
Therefore, many forces who dread of slipping into the upper levels of the Pill Tower paid extrely close attention to this so-called Five Great Clans' assessnt.
However, this ti, those forces that had been eyeing the positions of the Five Great Clans with greedy ambition were much less enthusiastic.
Because it was said that the Ye Clan, which had originally been about to be kicked out of the Five Great Clans, had found themselves a son-in-law who was a peak seventh grade alchemist.
Among the other four families participating in the assessnt this ti, there were probably very few who could contend with such a figure. And as long as the Ye Clan was not kicked out of the Five Great Clans, then they would have no chance at all to rise to that position.
When Lin Feng, along with the two girls, followed Ye Zhong to the enormous assessnt hall that occupied an extrely vast area and looked incredibly grand, they discovered that the place was already packed full with a dense sea of people.
Moreover, from ti to ti, waves of people who clearly seed to have powerful backgrounds would pass through the tightly-guarded entrance of the grand hall, successfully entering within.
"Let's go."
Looking at that massive assessnt hall, Ye Zhong's fist inside his sleeve trembled slightly, as he exhaled a deep breath and spoke.
This place, it was etched in his mory!
Every single assessnt before this had left him with deep humiliation. As his words fell, Ye Zhong was the first to stride toward the hall's entrance. Seeing this, Lin Feng and the two girls imdiately followed close behind.
Ye Zhong's group suddenly stepping out from the crowd naturally drew attention from those around them very quickly.
"Look, it's the Ye Clan."
"I wonder if it's true that their Ye Clan really found themselves an outrageously talented son-in-law."
"Yeah, but honestly I hope that's false. If the Ye Clan fails this ti, our clan might just be able to replace them as one of the Five Great Clans of the Pill Tower."
When they saw the clan emblem on Ye Zhong and the others' chests, whispers instantly broke out outside the hall.
After all, there had been far too many rumors these past few days about the fiancé of the Ye Clan's direct-line daughter.
First he had scared off Cao Dan of the Cao Clan, then he had intimidated Bai Ying and his group from the Bai Clan.
At the sa ti, as all these rumors continued to spread throughout the Pill Region. Later, people even dug up that this fiancé of the Ye Clan's direct-line daughter…had once fought against the Two-Star Dou Zun Grand Elder of the Burning Fla Valley in a battle, and had even managed to defeat him.
As these events continued to fernt, Lin Feng's fa in the Pill Region only grew larger and larger. By now, it could be said that within Holy Pill City, as long as one wasn't in secluded cultivation, almost everyone had more or less heard his na.
"The Ye Clan has arrived!"
The mont the guards saw Lin Feng and Ye Zhong's group, a loud and booming voice resounded through the hall.
Amidst the guards' loud cries, Lin Feng's group entered the hall. As soft light poured down from above, shining on their bodies, Lin Feng also imdiately sensed it.
From within the hall, countless gazes filled with various anings all shot toward them. Raising his eyes slightly, Lin Feng's gaze swept swiftly across the grand hall.
At this mont, on the seats surrounding the hall, there were quite a few figures seated. The auras of these people, so of them even included Dou Zun experts, clearly ca from so rather powerful forces or families.
As for all these gazes coming from every direction, Ye Zhong did not really bother with them either. He knew well that most of these people were hoping for the Ye Clan to fail in the assessnt. That way, it would vacate an excellent position for them.
"Up at the very front, those are the Dan, Bai, and Qiu Clans among the Five Great Clans, you should have seen so of them already."
Ye Zhong led Lin Feng and the two girls toward the Ye Clan's seats while explaining in a low voice.
Hearing this, Lin Feng followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw four sections of seating at the very front of the grand hall. However, at the mont, only three of those seats were occupied.
Among these three families, Lin Feng spotted Bai Ying of the Bai Clan, whom he had t before. Next to the Bai Clan's spot were so people wearing clan emblems Lin Feng did not recognize.
It must be the Qiu Clan.
As for the group seated closer to the center, Lin Feng recognized the emblem they wore — the Dan Clan's emblem. But what truly caught Lin Feng's eye was a petite young girl among the Dan Clan mbers.
The girl did not seem very old, probably around the sa age as Ye Xin Lan. Her delicate figure was graceful, and her beautiful face looked particularly pale, carrying a faintly sickly appearance.
However, what attracted Lin Feng was not the girl's slender body, nor the fact that at such a young age, she already possessed Dou Huang strength.
It was that within his half-step Spirit Realm soul perception, he could vaguely sense…a strange suction, constantly flowing out from within the girl's body. This suction did not absorb Dou Qi, but specifically drew in souls!
If soone with weaker strength or insufficient soul power were to recklessly approach that girl…their soul would probably be ripped out of their body in an instant, and then completely devoured by her.
"What a bizarre constitution. The reason I can devour souls is because of the Fallen Heart Fla. But she can directly consu others' souls to strengthen her own… could she be Dan Chen?"
Lin Feng's eyes burned as he stared at the girl, secretly speculating in his heart.
After all, in his mory, only Dan Chen possessed such a heaven-defying constitution. The girl's soul power was also far from weak. Very quickly, she sensed Lin Feng's curious gaze.
Her delicate face flushed slightly red, then suddenly as if rembering sothing…she quickly hid behind a man at her side, not daring to et Lin Feng's eyes.
Seeing Lin Feng staring fixedly in the direction of the Dan Clan, Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan both followed his gaze.
"Hmph!"
Noticing that Lin Feng was looking at the Dan Clan's young girl, a soft snort escaped their delicate noses.
Imdiately after, the two girls, as if in tacit agreent, extended one jade-like hand each and pinched hard at Lin Feng's waist.
"Hiss~"
Caught off guard by the sudden attack on his waist, Lin Feng instantly sucked in a cold breath of pain. Although Ye Xin Lan, with her Dou Wang strength, could not really harm him now…Xiao Yixian, a Dou Zun powerhouse, was another story entirely. That really hurt!
