1103: Chapter 1103: Ge Feng’s Concerns 1103: Chapter 1103: Ge Feng’s Concerns “The disciples from Bitao Martial Academy are friends of our Xuannv Sect,” she declared, her voice filled with resolve.
“If anyone dares to harm them, they will be making an enemy of the Xuannv Sect!”
Seeing that hundreds, maybe thousands, of Purple Fla Sect disciples around her were showing signs of malice and seed ready to attack Ge Feng and his companions, Han Xingyu stood up abruptly and shouted, her own Martial Artist Aura spreading, imposing a pressure that enveloped all directions.
At this mont, with the high-ranking mbers of the Purple Fla Sect heavily injured, Fang Bai and both He Yushu and He Linfeng having left one after the other, Han Xingyu had beco the strongest person present.
Moreover, with her status as an Elder of the Xuannv Sect, she imdiately deterred those disciples of the Purple Fla Sect.
“Elder Ge, please co over here!”
Seeing that her words had the desired effect, Han Xingyu gestured to Ge Feng and his group.
After Fang Bai had left, Ge Feng and the others imdiately sensed hostile intent from hundreds of Purple Fla Sect disciples around them.
They were ready to fight to the death but had not expected Han Xingyu to extend a helping hand.
After brief hesitation, they swiftly made their way to her side, led by Ge Feng.
The words Fang Bai had left with Han Xingyu before departing were conveyed through the Thread Condensation Sound Transmission Technique; no one but Han Xingyu could hear them.
Therefore, her protection of the Bitao Martial Academy disciples ca as a surprise to many at the scene.
Although there were many disciples of the Purple Fla Sect gathered, they were leaderless and intimidated by Han Xingyu, and could only watch helplessly as Ge Feng and the other Bitao Martial Academy disciples flew into the midst of the Xuannv Sect disciples.
Standing beside Han Xingyu, Ge Feng knew under the reputation of the Xuannv Sect that the Purple Fla Sect disciples would not dare to act rashly.
They were montarily safe, and he let out a sigh of relief.
Then, folding his arms in a respectful bow, he gratefully said, “Senior Han, thank you!”
“There’s no need to be so formal, Elder Ge!” Han Xingyu replied, quickly returning the gesture with a wry smile.
“Let’s address each other as equals.
I really can’t bear the title of ‘senior’!”
Though Han Xingyu was an Elder of a Third-Rank Sect and in both status and power far exceeded Ge Feng, an Elder of a Fourth-Rank Sect, Fang Bai had, on this day, single-handedly inflicted heavy damage on fourteen high-level mbers of the Purple Fla Sect, becoming famous in one fell swoop and known throughout the world.
Following this, the rank of Bitao Martial Academy would surely rise significantly, surpassing the Xuannv Sect and possibly even most of the existing Third-Rank Sects of the True Martial Realm, approaching the level of Second-Rank Sects.
By then, as an Elder of Bitao Martial Academy, Ge Feng’s status would naturally soar, and with the help of Fang Bai, a mid-rank Pill Master, Ge Feng’s power was sure to improve rapidly.
It was possible that in the not too distant future, he might catch up to Han Xingyu.
Therefore, Han Xingyu did not dare to assu an air of superiority in front of Ge Feng.
Ge Feng, being a clever man, understood why Han Xingyu did not dare to act superior in his presence, and so he nodded and did not continue the formalities.
So of the Purple Fla Sect disciples realized that the situation was beyond salvage.
Fearing Fang Bai’s potential return and further bloodshed, they didn’t want to stay and wait for death.
Quietly, they slipped away, and within a blink of an eye, a great number had left, leaving only a few loyal to the Purple Fla Sect still standing in the Practice Battle Arena, ready to share the fate of Zu Tiangang and the other high-ranking mbers.
As for the disciples from the various Sects attending the grand assembly, not a single one had left.
They were all waiting for Fang Bai’s return to witness the monuntal change that had not been seen in Thousand Lakes Country for thousands of years.
Fang Bai, unstoppable and overwhelmingly victorious over the elite of the Purple Fla Sect, had toppled the Sect from its dominant position of thousands of years.
Bitao Martial Academy was set to take its place as the new overlord, and when that happened, all the Fourth-Rank Sects would have to respect and follow Bitao Martial Academy.
So of the more astute high-ranking mbers from the Sects approached Ge Feng to converse, all addressing him as “Elder Ge,” their deanor and tone filled with flattery and sycophancy.
Ge Feng had lived for decades, yet he had never enjoyed such honor and prestige before.
He knew that all these changes were because of Fang Bai, and his heart couldn’t help but fill with emotions and reflections.
Ge Feng was not carried away by excitent.
Instead, he felt worried about the powerful strength Fang Bai had revealed.
Ge Feng knew that Fang Bai, possessing Cosmic Level realm strength, had an identity far from simple.
What purpose drove him to join Bitao Martial Academy as a Cosmic Level Expert?
“Perhaps he’s a favored son of a first-class powerful sect, or maybe a gifted Individual Cultivation Martial Artist who suppressed his realm to join Bitao Martial Academy for the sake of tempering his spirit.”
That was the only conclusion Ge Feng could co to.
Having spent a significant amount of ti with Fang Bai, Ge Feng felt that he had co to understand him fairly well.
In Ge Feng’s view, no matter what identity Fang Bai held, he at least bore no ill will towards the Bitao Martial Academy.
Ge Feng’s concern was whether, by no longer suppressing his power and fully revealing his strength, Fang Bai was signaling his departure from Bitao Martial Academy.
One could imagine that once Fang Bai left Bitao Martial Academy to gain experience elsewhere, the power dynamics of Thousand Lakes Country would likely remain the sa, without significant change.
Although the upper echelon of Purple Fla Sect had been severely damaged by Fang Bai and could possibly be entirely wiped out by him, there were still many Desolate Level Experts, such as Direct Disciples and Core Disciples, thus the sect’s overall strength would still be enough to overpower a fourth-class Sect like Bitao Martial Academy.
That is to say, even if Purple Fla Sect’s future overall strength took a hit, they would still be the top power of Thousand Lakes Country and continue to occupy the dominant position.
The only change would be that without Vast Level Experts, Purple Fla Sect would lose its absolute advantage, and thus the other dozens of sects in Thousand Lakes Country might be able to band together to contest Purple Fla Sect, no longer having to suffer bullying and oppression as they did before.
What worried Ge Feng most was that once Fang Bai left Bitao Martial Academy, without his presence to deter them, Purple Fla Sect might likely seek revenge.
Unless, before leaving, Fang Bai could help Bitao Martial Academy cultivate a group of Desolate Level Experts, thereby possessing the strength to stand against Purple Fla Sect.
As a Cosmic Level Expert and a mid-tier Alchemist and Artifact Refiner, if Fang Bai was willing to stay at Bitao Martial Academy a bit longer and provide guidance to the talented geniuses within, then refine so mid-tier Elixirs and Spiritual Artifacts for Bitao Martial Academy, he would undoubtedly enable the disciples’ strength to rise rapidly.
Regarding the materials for Alchemy and Artifact Refining, Purple Fla Sect surely had plenty stocked up, and Ge Feng believed Fang Bai would not miss the opportunity to claim them for himself.
Ge Feng had decided that once this matter was settled, even if he had to kneel and kowtow, he would request Fang Bai to chart a clear path for the future of Bitao Martial Academy, not to simply wash his hands of them and leave.
Half a two-hour period later, a long whistle approached from afar, and then Fang Bai’s figure appeared in the sky above the Practice Battle Arena like a Divine Dragon, before slowly descending.
“Brother Fang!”
Liu Qingqing had been worried about Fang Bai all this ti, and on seeing his return, she cheered and hurried to greet him.
After scrutinizing him and finding no injuries on his body, she felt reassured and asked, “What about those two guys?
Brother Fang, did you catch up with them?”
When Zhuge Lian saw Fang Bai, she subconsciously wanted to greet him as well but was one step behind Liu Qingqing.
She then thought that her relationship with Fang Bai was not yet close enough to do so, and thus she stood still in her original spot without moving.
