"You have to admit, this Lin Feng is definitely a talent. He’s playing that series of tricks pretty skillfully."
All sorts of disdainful and mocking gazes were directed at Lin Feng, with so discussions and sarcastic remarks being made without any reservation, as if they were intentionally said for Lin Feng to hear.
Hearing these discussions, besides Lin Feng, the expressions of Gao Hai and others were very unpleasant.
Just yesterday, Lin Feng was a nationally admired genius, a future prodigy, envied and worshipped by many, but in just one night, he seed to have fallen into the dust, becoming a laughing stock for everyone.
Lin Feng’s martial talent was truly extraordinary, cultivating at a speed even surpassing those called prodigies.
When no one else had even started cultivating martial skills, he could already effortlessly execute two powerful Third Grade martial skills.
Among the freshn at Work University, reaching Second Grade Realm was exclusive to Lin Feng.
Even if he couldn’t refine a First Grade Demon Spirit, with his demon-like martial talent alone, Lin Feng’s future achievents would far surpass most of his peers.
In the future, becoming a Martial King is not beyond reach.
But at this mont, it seed everyone had forgotten Lin Feng’s martial talent, or rather, deliberately ignored it.
Perhaps Lin Feng’s brilliance was too intense before, making it unable to be directly faced. Now, even if there was still a glow, in the eyes of the crowd, it seed dim and dull.
Of course, besides ridicule, so were also very impressed with Lin Feng’s maneuvers.
Such a daring move, who wouldn’t envy it!
A single lie could bring in 7.2 billion; they would want that too!
Demon Spirit Masters have high expenses because nurturing demon spirits requires lots of demon spirits and Soul Nourishing Pills, and so demon spirits with rare soul skills start at a price of over a billion New Coins.
The stronger the Demon Spirit Masters, the poorer they might be.
But for Martial Artists, 7.2 billion, even spending daily on pills and demon beast flesh and blood, they couldn’t finish it.
In other words, with just a lie, Lin Feng had earned his lifeti’s worth of cultivation resources.
To scam that many big companies and conglorates, even scamming the Juxing Club, only Lin Feng could do it.
This is also why many people admire Lin Feng.
Facing the discussions, Lin Feng wasn’t bothered, showing no change in expression.
As the group moved towards their destination, Lin Feng’s steps paused slightly. Ahead, three figures were approaching slowly. At the front, a young man dressed in a blue Martial Artist’s Uniform locked his gaze on Lin Feng, eyes sharp like a knife, filled with aggression, evidently not coming with good intentions.
This young man was quite famous; seeing him, many students started discussing, clearly recognizing him.
"My na is Zhang Xingyu, a sophomore, Peak of Second Grade, ranked 63 on the Wind and Cloud Chart, refined a Ninth Grade Demon Spirit, and absorbed two soul skills."
The young man ca up to Lin Feng, with no pleasantries, no small talk, directly introducing his strength before changing his tone:
"I’m nurtured by the Yunjin Company. Return the money and publicly apologize to Yunjin, and I won’t trouble you."
Yunjin Conglorate was one of the companies looking for him as a spokesperson; Lin Feng rembered.
"He arrived so quickly!"
Looking at the three imposing figures before them, Gao Hai and the others could only smile bitterly. Everything was just as Yang Fan predicted, only faster than expected.
"I’m handling matters according to the contract. Why should I return the money?"
Faced with the threat, Lin Feng calmly said, "Since there’s a gamble, there’s naturally a risk. If I truly refine an Earth Chart Demon Spirit, the price wouldn’t be the sa, and since it’s only just started, how do you know you bet on the wrong horse?"
"I must say, you truly surprise people."
Zhang Xingyu didn’t expect Lin Feng, having refined rely a First Grade Demon Spirit, to still have the audacity to speak like this, and laughed: "Your plan is quite good, I must admire it. 7.2 billion, I’m afraid I’ll never have that much money in my entire life. But I don’t care about that, return the money, apologize, or else you’ll regret it."
Lin Feng looked at Zhang Xingyu and asked, "I’m rather curious, how will you make regret it?"
Zhang Xingyu was slightly taken aback; he didn’t expect Lin Feng to be so bold in front of him.
"You might not know, the school rules may not allow the strong to bully the weak, but if we’re both in the Second Grade Realm, even if I’m at the peak, and you’ve just entered Second Grade, I can still challenge you. As long as it doesn’t lead to death, even if you end up bedridden for months, the school won’t intervene."
Zhang Xingyu thought Lin Feng was unaware of the rules, and once he explained, Lin Feng would beco frightened and back down. But unexpectedly, Lin Feng remained calm, saying, "So?"
Zhang Xingyu frowned slightly, his voice growing cold: "So, I will challenge you, make you lie in bed for a year or two."
"If you dare challenge him, in the future, I’ll challenge you." Yun Kai suddenly spoke up.
Seeing Yun Kai, standing behind Lin Feng like a lion, Zhang Xingyu’s gaze shifted slightly.
As a genius with Ancestral Demonization talent, even if he’s just Ninth Rank Body Cultivator, the threat from Yun Kai is sothing no one would dare ignore.
During the Throne Challenge, personally witnessing the power of ’Golden Transformation’ and ’Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root’ talent skills, even though there’s a significant difference in strength now, geniuses like Yun Kai grow quickly. Hence, Zhang Xingyu was sowhat wary of Yun Kai’s threat.
"Return the money; escaping is useless. No matter how gifted Yun Kai is, he can’t be your shield now." Zhang Xingyu said.
No matter how much potential Yun Kai had, no matter how much Zhang Xingyu feared his threat, a single sentence couldn’t scare him off.
If he backed down, his path to becoming a powerful figure would be interrupted, and the Yunjin Conglorate would stop nurturing him.
"Alright, Kai."
Lin Feng patted Yun Kai’s shoulder and asked Zhang Xingyu, "Do I have to accept a challenge? What if a hundred or so people line up, one after another in turn, how could I handle it? Where would I find the ti for cultivation? Wouldn’t the school manage this?"
If Lin Feng backed down, that would be best, and he wouldn’t offend Yun Kai. So seeing Lin Feng showing a hint of hesitation, Zhang Xingyu patiently explained:
"You certainly don’t have to accept the challenge, but then you won’t be able to move an inch at Red Cloud University. Whatever you do, soone will obstruct you unless you drop out or hide in the dormitory like a coward."
"Oh, now I understand."
Lin Feng nodded, indicating his understanding: "I can accept a challenge, but I hate trouble, and my ti is very precious, so there’s a prerequisite for challenging ."
"What prerequisite?" Zhang Xingyu asked.
"I only accept duels with bets, starting at one billion New Coins. More is fine too. If you don’t have the money, then it’s a life-and-death duel!"
Life-and-death duel!
When Lin Feng uttered those three words, everyone was startled.
Even Zhang Xingyu wasn’t an exception.
Dong Yunan trembled slightly, his face turning slightly pale.
At Red Cloud University, unless there’s an irreconcilable deep hatred, students usually don’t engage in life-and-death duels.
However, like challenges, life-and-death duels are indeed permitted. In the Martial Artist’s world, life and death are quite normal, and if both parties consent, the school won’t intervene.
Even an ordinary challenge could accidentally cripple or kill soone, though it would result in severe punishnt, and generally, people wouldn’t dare to act too ruthlessly.
"Haha, you truly are worthy of being the rookie king, so arrogant!"
Zhang Xingyu laughed, not being intimidated.
In his view, Lin Feng was clearly bluffing.
Not only was Zhang Xingyu at the peak of Second Grade, but he had refined a Ninth Grade Demon Spirit and absorbed two soul skills. Even if Lin Feng had broken through to Second Grade and mastered two Third Grade martial skills, he couldn’t be Zhang Xingyu’s opponent.
"I don’t want your life, just return the money and apologize."
"I don’t want your life either, but I dislike trouble, unless the trouble benefits ." Lin Feng said with a smile.
Seeing that Lin Feng was unmoved, Zhang Xingyu nodded, "Alright then, I will have a life-and-death duel with you, na the ti!"
"3 PM this afternoon, at the Martial Arts Arena." Lin Feng replied.
"Alright."
Zhang Xingyu nodded and left with his two companions. anwhile, the news about the life-and-death duel between Lin Feng and Zhang Xingyu spread at Red Cloud University, causing an uproar.
When one wave is not yet settled, another rises. The drama amongst onlookers is growing ever more exciting this year.....
