BXBX NOVEL Chapter 6: Obtaining The Spirit Wine
Chapter 6: Obtaining The Spirit Wine
Just by inhaling the wine vapor, Chu Feng felt the Qi in his body surging, as if there were signs of further improvement.
And the blood energy in his body also showed signs of increasing again.
Without hesitation, Chu Feng grabbed the jar and drank a large mouthful.
As soon as the purple nectar entered his throat, a fiery sensation, like molten lava, erupted, as if it wanted to burn everything.
The Qi in Chu Feng\'s body instantly circulated, showing signs of advancing again. His slow blood energy also began to grow rapidly.
Just by drinking a mouthful, if it weren\'t for his powerful spiritual force, he would have collapsed on the ground.
"Indeed, it\'s a spiritual object of heaven and earth. With these two jars of wine, my blood energy will definitely increase significantly."
Chu Feng\'s heart was excited. Previously, digesting the heart blood of five demonic beasts had only increased his blood energy by 3 points, barely reaching 17 points.
Now, just drinking a mouthful of wine, before even finishing the digestion, it had already increased by 0.2 points.
This Ape King had probably accumulated many years of spiritual objects for brewing.
The lifespan of demonic beasts was much longer than that of humans, approximately ten times longer at the same level.
A human Master had a lifespan of 150 years, while this Ape King had a lifespan of at least a thousand years.
Now, it was benefiting him.
After consuming these two jars of Purple Origin Spirit Wine, reaching the realm of a Grandmaster or even a Warlord was possible.
By then, who in the entire Qingzhou City could oppose him?
And he was just a seventeen-year-old student.
This Ape King was truly unlucky. If it had consumed these two jars of wine, it might have broken through to the Master realm.
After drinking two more mouthfuls, Chu Feng took out two intact wolf pelts, wrapped the two jars of wine, and reluctantly squeezed them into his enormous bag.
After searching around and finding nothing else valuable, Chu Feng left the Ape King\'s lair.
"Thud, thud."
A series of heavy footsteps echoed. As soon as Chu Feng left the demonic ape\'s lair, he looked up and saw the gigantic Ape King returning, colliding head-on with him.
However, at this moment, the Ape King was extremely weak. The vague golden patterns on its head were dimmer, and its body was covered in bloodstains.
Clearly, the aftermath of sacrificing its bloodline had taken its toll. Coupled with the recurring injuries, its aura had dropped to the level of a second-stage intermediate demonic beast, and it was still decreasing.
"Oh, the big guy, Lin Zhennan and the others, are actually following behind!" Chu Feng\'s formidable spiritual power swept over, discovering that a few hundred meters behind the Ape King, three people were trailing. There were even others in the distance.
"Want to pick up the pieces? Or should I do it myself?" A smirk appeared on Chu Feng\'s lips.
Lin Zhennan and the others obviously intended to wait for the Ape King\'s aura to continue dropping before killing it with the least cost possible, seizing the spirit wine.
However, they didn\'t expect a sudden appearance of an unexpected guest like Chu Feng.
The voices of Lin Zhennan and the others, filled with shock and anger, reached Chu Feng.
The Ape King, which had unleashed super-limit power, had chased and killed one of their team members shortly before. Afterward, when the Ape King entered a weakened state, they followed it, planning to wait for its strength to decline further and then kill it, seizing the spirit wine.
But unexpectedly, halfway through, a sudden intrusion occurred, and Chu Feng, like a thorn, wanted to pick their peaches.
Lin Zhennan was furious to the extreme. The Ape King hated it even more, being tormented so miserably by these human ants! What was even more despicable was that this kid now stole its home.
Mutant demonic beasts possessed incredible intelligence, especially their keen sense of smell. The faint scent of wine had already been caught by the Ape King.
Roaring, regardless of its injuries, the Ape King charged toward Chu Feng, aiming to tear this little bug into pieces.
Chu Feng, having reached the Grandmaster realm, executed the perfected Golden Peng Pierces the Void. His figure traced a mysterious arc in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the Ape King\'s fierce but resentful strike, instantly arriving at the beast\'s neck.
Yes, he aimed for the throat again!
The knife flashed, and a rain of blood scattered.
There was no suspense. The peak-level Ape King was no match for Chu Feng\'s Grandmaster-level strength.
It was just that Chu Feng hadn\'t unleashed his full power.
At this moment, Lin Zhennan, who was running frantically, had already discovered who the spoiler was. Enraged, he shook violently, his face turning pale.
His roar resounded, "Chu Feng, if you dare to kill the Ape King, I\'ll..."
Before Lin Zhennan could finish his sentence, the Ape King was already dead. It could only be said that Chu Feng\'s speed was too fast, far exceeding the speed of sound.
"Dead so soon..."
"This can\'t be possible!"
"This demonic ape\'s strength, even if it fell, was at least a second-stage intermediate demonic beast. I was waiting for it to fall to the initial stage before taking action..."
The few people looked at each other in shock. Chu Feng\'s strength clearly exceeded their expectations, leaving them dumbfounded on the spot.
"What do you want from me?" Chu Feng appeared silently in front of the three, his gaze cold and filled with a bloodthirsty chill.
Extending his arm like an eagle grabbing a chick, Chu Feng grabbed Lin Zhennan\'s neck, lifting him into the air.
Lin Zhennan had no resistance at all. He didn\'t even have a chance to react. He found that his elemental force had stopped circulating.
Instantly, terror appeared in his eyes. However, as the pride of a master family, he maintained a degree of toughness, hiding a trace of resentment and killing intent in his gaze.
However, I am not here to make a wedding dress for others!
Not even a glimpse of the legendary Purple Origin Spirit Wine.
Now, even a fool could guess that the spiritual wine was likely in Chu Feng\'s huge bundle.
The intelligent fox\'s eyes flickered, and he persisted, "Chu Feng, there might be Purple Origin Spirit Wine in the Ape King\'s cave. Did you take it? If not, let\'s explore it together. You just need to share a little with us."
He even forced a flattering smile.
But this seemingly friendly inquiry was, in fact, an attempt to confirm whether Chu Feng got the wine or not.
The other two also stared at Chu Feng intently, observing his every move.
Chu Feng frowned. He hated sly people the most, especially those trying to deceive him.
"What wine? I\'m not interested. Hurry up and get lost!" Chu Feng\'s face turned cold, and he said impatiently.
The intelligent fox knew that he couldn\'t get the truth now. After going out, Chu Feng would definitely not admit it. The wine was undoubtedly out of their reach.
He reluctantly continued, "If Brother Chu got the wine, we are willing to buy it at a high price. The price will definitely satisfy you."
Purple Origin Spirit Wine was a valuable spiritual item, even for Masters. Anyone would be a fool to sell it openly.
Chu Feng got angry instantly, "Damn, you won\'t leave, huh? I have just the right amount of points, everyone hand over your point cards. I\'m robbing your points now!"
Robbery!
Open and shameless robbery!
The three instantly turned pale. Not obtaining the wine was a small matter, but not getting a ranking in the trial meant their position in the family was at stake.
After all, the Lin family had been a large family for two hundred years, with numerous descendants and fierce competition. Family members fighting each other, brothers plotting against brothers, such things happened frequently.
The intelligent fox\'s family, although not as influential as the Lin family, was also a small Master-level family with intense competition.
"We\'ll leave immediately!" The three didn\'t dare to have any illusions. They each used their body techniques, moving as fast as the wind, and turned to escape.
"Want to leave? It\'s too late... As I said, hand over your points." Chu Feng appeared in front of the three in an instant, looking at them coldly.
Without further ado, he seized the intelligent fox, then with a touch, effortlessly swiped away half of the points.
"Only 300 points, you\'re really a pauper." Chu Feng sneered, dealing a ruthless blow.
Then, following the same procedure, he took the points from Lin Zhenan and Lin Haoran.
Lin Zhenan had 442 points, Lin Haoran had 340 points, making a total of 1082 points taken away by Chu Feng.
Adding the 200 points obtained from the Ape King earlier, Chu Feng now had a total of 4614 points.
The three wore expressions of utter despair, their faces turning gray, and their eyes dim.
They clenched their fists tightly. Their hatred for Chu Feng had reached its limit, but they didn\'t dare to show any of it.
"Get lost! If I see you again, you\'ll be in big trouble." Chu Feng\'s scolding words disappeared instantly in their ears, as if a pardon, and they quickly vanished into the vast forest.
Facing such a ruthless person like Chu Feng, they were genuinely afraid.
"Start rolling! If I see you again, you\'ll be in big trouble."
Chu Feng felt a bit emotional. This person is really despicable!
If you don\'t hit him, he thinks you\'re easy to talk to and bully. When you show thunderous means, he behaves like a well-behaved dog.
Chu Feng now had over 4,000 points, and his bag was already full. Killing more beasts was impossible.
He directly found a secluded place and began to enter into cultivation once again.
Inside the Five Elements Mountains, on a tranquil rock, Chu Feng "gulped" down two large mouthfuls of wine and immersed himself in deep cultivation.
The silent base camp, due to the recent robbery, once again thrust Chu Feng into the spotlight.
The situation on the points leaderboard was initially clear. Chu Feng was dominating with an exaggerated score, securely holding the first position. Lin Zhenan and Li Chenyi were competing, with Lin Zhenan having a bit more time in the second position.
However, just now, the situation suddenly reversed.
A teacher from Qingzhou No.1 High School, responsible for monitoring the points leaderboard, suddenly noticed that Lin Zhenan\'s points had disappeared from the top ten.
In shock, she finally found Lin Zhenan\'s name in the eighteenth place.
"Oh my God! How did Lin Zhenan\'s points decrease by half? It dropped from 884 points to 442 points?" The teacher covered her lips in disbelief.
Her words instantly attracted the attention of almost everyone present.
Those remaining in the base camp were either staff or teachers from various schools, or even some well-connected parents. They were all formidable individuals, keeping an eye on everything.
"Wow! It\'s true. But not only Lin Zhenan\'s points decreased, Lin Haoran and Qiu Lifeng\'s points also dropped by half." Many people noticed the unusual change in the points leaderboard and started discussing it fervently.
Qiu Lifeng was the real name of the intelligent fox.
"Are there others?"
"It seems not, and the points all decreased by half... It\'s obviously a point robbery!"
"How is that possible? Who would dare to rob Lin Zhenan\'s points? And who would dare to do that?"
"Wow! Someone dared to rob Lin Zhenan\'s points? I really want to know who this bold and interesting guy is!"
"No need to guess. Number 1398, Chu Feng, directly increased by 1082 points, exactly the points Lin Zhenan and the others lost."
There were some formidable "detectives" on the scene who immediately solved the case.
"Brazen! Actually daring to directly confront the Lin family. I knew..."
Someone who originally had some grudges against the Lin family and was about to boast about Chu Feng instantly felt like their throat was being choked. Fear flashed in their eyes, and they obediently closed their mouths, not daring to make a sound.
Because a middle-aged man in grey clothes with a gloomy face had silently appeared in front of the screen at the center of the square.
He emitted a powerful aura, and it was clear he was a high-ranking figure who had long held a high position.
Yes, he was Lin Yujian, the current head of the Lin family.
Although he only had the strength of a Great Martial Master, even a Master wouldn\'t dare to underestimate him because the Lin family was the leading family among the three Great Martial Master families. The Lin family had three formidable figures at the Master level.
So, he stood quietly there. Although he was casual with his words, he had a smile that didn\'t reach his eyes. He exuded an invisible pressure, and the noisy square instantly fell silent. No one dared to discuss Lin Zhenan and Chu Feng\'s matters anymore.
It showed the deep influence of the Lin family!
"Brother Lin, who is this Chu Feng? Is he provoking our two families?" A towering figure, as massive as a black tower, appeared next to Lin Yujian, his voice as loud as a bell.
Lin Yujian remained calm, wearing a superficial smile as he said, "It\'s just children playing house. Brother Qiu, there\'s no need to worry."
He spoke casually, but deep down, he harbored deep dissatisfaction and resentment towards Chu Feng. Although robbing points was allowed by the rules, in his view, Lin Zhenan was his son. Moreover, he was certain that there must be significant conflicts between Chu Feng and his son; otherwise, Chu Feng wouldn\'t have robbed Lin Zhenan\'s points so openly, unless Chu Feng was an idiot.
What was more important was that, in front of everyone, he had slapped the face of the Lin family. In his opinion, that was a significant event, a colossal event.
Originally, he felt somewhat embarrassed and didn\'t want to appear in the center of the points square. However, he was afraid of public discussions affecting the reputation of the Lin family further, so he reluctantly decided to make an appearance.
The saying goes, "Words can be more piercing than gold, and accumulated harm can destroy bones."
Therefore, Lin Yujian stepped forward, using clever rhetoric to defuse tensions with the Qiu family while reassuring the crowd, showcasing the integrity of the Lin family.
Truly worthy of being the spokesperson for the Lin family.
However, deep down, he had already decided to retaliate against Chu Feng. Whether it would escalate to the point of a deadly confrontation depended on the specifics of the situation.
The massive man from the Qiu family, like a black tower, looked at Lin Yujian with some surprise, his expression full of confusion. However, he wisely closed his mouth, somewhat wary as he glanced at the powerful Master-level figures on the high platform.
Just as the situation on the square became somewhat delicate, the most luxurious elemental-powered car sped into the base camp.
A middle-aged man with a figure as straight as a spear, exuding a dense murderous aura, alighted from the car and headed straight for the high platform.
As he moved, it seemed as though he walked on clouds, and his remarkable body technique left everyone astonished.
The Master-level figures on the high platform stood up upon seeing him, their expressions solemn. Song Haishan, the vice president of the Martial Association, greeted with a smile, "The Lord of the Asura Hall graces us with his presence, making our Five Elements Trial even more splendid. It adds a lot of color!"
"That\'s right. What wind blew the Hall Lord here?" Jiang Tian, the principal of Experiments High School, who had encountered the Lord of the Asura Martial Hall before, joked.
The other Masters also warmly greeted him.
The Lord of the Asura Martial Hall laughed heartily and said, "Speaking of which, my visit today is indeed related to Experiments High School! The elite student Chu Feng has a connection with the Asura Martial Hall. I\'ve come to invite him to join the martial hall, and I\'ll trouble Principal Jiang for the introduction later."
The Lord of the Asura Martial Hall got straight to the point, explaining his purpose.
The Masters were secretly surprised that Chu Feng had attracted the attention of the Asura Martial Hall. They were well aware that the Asura Martial Hall was not a local force in Qingzhou but a vast organization deeply rooted in the Dragon Country, with branches throughout Dragon Country\'s base cities.
The rumored head of the Asura Martial Hall was an important figure in the Dragon Country King\'s Alliance. The King\'s Alliance was, in fact, the ruler of the Dragon Country.
The Asura Qingzhou Martial Hall was just a third-level branch, and even the city lord\'s mansion had to show respect to it.
In Qingzhou, forces like the Asura Martial Hall, Nine Ding Commercial City, Blood Slaughter Association, and Sky Wolf Gang were powers that even the three major Master families had to be cautious in dealing with.
The selection standards of the Asura Martial Hall were strict, and they rarely invited people in Qingzhou, sometimes not for several years.
Principal Jiang, with a stroke of his long beard, a face full of spring breeze, said, "Certainly, certainly! It\'s an honor for Chu Feng to be appreciated by the Hall Lord."
He felt secretly proud and, at the same time, subtly warned Lin Yujian. The warning was evident.
Lin Yujian frowned, feeling extremely annoyed internally.
Chu Feng had actually attracted the attention of the Asura Martial Hall. This matter was troublesome. It seemed that revenge had to be carefully considered.
...
In the trial base camp, Chu Feng, who had caused various disturbances, was unaware of the commotion. Immersed in his cultivation, he was suddenly awakened by the beeping sound of the points bracelet.
It turned out that it was already three o\'clock in the afternoon, and the trial would end at five o\'clock. The points bracelet was warning everyone to hurry back to the base camp.
After half a day of cultivation, Chu Feng had refined ten more second-order monster heart bloods, and he had also consumed a considerable amount of Purple Yuan Spirit Wine.
At this point, his blood energy value had reached a staggering 25 points, corresponding to a basic combat power of 25,000. His current limit combat power had reached an astonishing 750,000.
This was an absolutely terrifying force, even surpassing the old Master-level figures like Jiang Tian and Song Haishan.
It\'s important to note that Chu Feng was only seventeen years old!
After receiving the warning from the points bracelet, Chu Feng did not immediately return to the base camp.
With his proficiency in the Golden Peng Breaking Void Body Technique and the enhancement of Master-level Qi, he could reach the base camp in less than half an hour.
After taking two large sips of wine, Chu Feng continued to immerse himself in cultivation.
As time passed, Chu Feng felt his blood energy soaring once again. When it reached 27 points, he finally got up to return to the base camp.
...
When Chu Feng walked out of the entrance of the Five Elements Mountain Valley, the trial base camp was already bustling.
The majority of the trial participants had returned. Some were proud and talkative, sharing their gains and thrilling experiences. Others were despondent, mourning for friends who had died.
Chu Feng was about to look for the Experiments High School team when a sharp voice called out.
"Dad, he is Chu Feng! He\'s the one who provoked our Lin family, looted my points!" The voice was filled with intense hatred and resentment.
Chu Feng didn\'t need to look to know that it was Lin Zhenan.
Although Lin Zhenan\'s handsome face had been swollen after being beaten by Chu Feng, he had received treatment and could speak normally now, albeit with a somewhat awkward pronunciation.
His words immediately drew the attention of everyone present. After all, Chu Feng was currently the center of attention, being the top scorer in the trial, and he had also violated the rules of the Qingzhou trial.
About his every move, it would cause a huge sensation.
"This Senior Chu Feng is really amazing, daring to plunder Lin Zhenan\'s points!"
"Of course, Senior Chu Feng is Qingzhou\'s number one talent, and Lin Zhenan is just from a powerful family. In front of Senior Chu Feng, he\'s nothing!"
"Well done! Excellent! Lin Zhenan even looted my points. Who should I talk to for justice? Serves him right!" Someone applauded.
After being robbed of points, Lin Zhenan, in anger and frustration, immediately began to plunder points from others, trying to make up for the deficit.
...
The private discussions of the crowd made Lin Yujian\'s old face turn red, and he glared fiercely at Lin Zhenan. "Shut up! The Five Elements Trial has no rules against looting points. If you were robbed, it\'s because you were not as skilled."
Lin Zhenan was dumbfounded at the words. He had originally hoped that his father would avenge him, preferably by killing Chu Feng on the spot.
Unexpectedly, his father would say such bizarre words, which were inconsistent with his usual image!
Biting his lip, Lin Zhenan said unwillingly, "Dad, this Chu Feng guy robbed my chance. The Purple Yuan Spirit Wine, I originally intended to present it to you."
"What? Purple Yuan Spirit Wine! That\'s a spiritual item that\'s highly beneficial even to Masters, and it has almost no side effects." Everyone\'s attention was immediately drawn to Chu Feng.
Lin Yujian\'s expression also changed. Internally, he cursed Lin Zhenan as an idiot. Why didn\'t he mention this important piece of information sooner?
He tried to control his expression, but his inner thoughts were clear—he was cursing Lin Zhenan for revealing such crucial information in such a chaotic manner.
Chu Feng, without any change in expression, calmly said, "What \'spirit wine\'? I\'ve explained inside several times; I haven\'t seen it! But this young master, Lin, insisted on using force and voluntarily offered his points after his defeat."
"I clarify, I didn\'t intentionally loot Senior Lin\'s points. At the same time, I solemnly declare that I have no knowledge of any \'spirit wine.\' If someone falsely accuses me again, that person will face my ruthless retaliation."
Chu Feng inwardly sneered. With his current 800,000 combat power, he dared to covet the spirit wine; it depended on whether the person had enough strength.
Inside the tent, Chu Feng and Wu Yuanlang, the Lord of the Shura Martial Hall, began their conversation. The atmosphere was filled with an indescribable tension as both individuals were trying to gauge each other.
Wu Yuanlang, dressed in a black robe, sat calmly, and his deep gaze seemed to penetrate the soul. Chu Feng, on the other hand, remained composed, meeting the gaze of the powerful figure in front of him.
"Chu Feng, I\'ve heard a lot about you. The commotion you caused during the trial has reached even the ears of the Shura Martial Hall," Wu Yuanlang spoke slowly, his voice carrying a unique charm.
Chu Feng nodded respectfully. "It\'s an honor to meet the Lord of the Shura Martial Hall. I didn\'t expect my actions to attract such attention."
Wu Yuanlang\'s eyes narrowed slightly as he continued to scrutinize Chu Feng. "You have extraordinary strength and courage, and your performance has stirred up quite a sensation. However, I sense that there is more to you than meets the eye. What is it that you seek, Chu Feng?"
Chu Feng maintained his calm demeanor. "I seek strength and the path of martial arts. My journey has just begun, and I am open to learning from those who are more experienced."
Wu Yuanlang chuckled, his deep voice resonating in the tent. "Ambitious, yet humble. I appreciate that. However, in the world of martial arts, strength alone is not enough. It requires wisdom, strategy, and the ability to navigate the complex relationships between different factions."
Chu Feng listened attentively, understanding the underlying message. The world beyond the trial was intricate, with power struggles, alliances, and hidden agendas.
"As the Lord of the Shura Martial Hall, I have a proposition for you, Chu Feng. Join our martial hall, and I will personally guide you on the path of martial arts. You will have access to resources, knowledge, and opportunities that few can dream of," Wu Yuanlang proposed, his gaze unwavering.
Chu Feng\'s eyes flickered with contemplation. Joining the Shura Martial Hall could undoubtedly provide him with immense benefits, but at the same time, it would also mean getting involved in the intricate web of martial factions.
"I appreciate the offer, Lord Wu, and I am honored. However, I believe in forging my own path. I will respectfully decline your invitation," Chu Feng responded firmly.
Wu Yuanlang\'s eyes showed a hint of surprise, but then he smiled approvingly. "Independence and self-reliance are virtues. I respect your decision, Chu Feng. If you ever change your mind, the doors of the Shura Martial Hall will be open to you."
With that, the conversation between Chu Feng and the Lord of the Shura Martial Hall continued, delving into martial insights, philosophy, and the complexities of the martial world. Outside the tent, the onlookers wondered about the discussions taking place within, sensing the significance of this encounter between a rising talent and a mysterious martial hall lord.
The two entered the tent, and Wu Yuanlang went straight to the point, saying, "I\'ll be frank. Young friend, your talent is extraordinary, even among innate warriors; you\'re a top talent. The Martial Asura Hall is ready to absorb you and have you join us."
Wu Yuanlang found that he couldn\'t see through Chu Feng\'s strength, which shocked him. This indicates that Chu Feng has comprehended the "Subtlety" realm, able to control his power well. This suggests that Chu Feng has advanced to the Martial Master realm, probably not weaker than others in the Martial Master realm.
Martial Master!
Even in the second-level base city of Jiangning, he could be considered a genius, and this might not be Chu Feng\'s limit. After all, Chu Feng awakened his talent only a month ago.
If Chu Feng can be recruited into the Martial Asura Hall, it would be a great achievement, and he might even be promoted to a larger base again.
Small base cities lack spiritual energy and resources, naturally incomparable to large base cities.
Seeing Chu Feng expressionless with no response, Wu Yuanlang felt more appreciation in his heart. So young, yet so calm and steady, truly rare.
"Our Martial Asura Hall\'s Chief, Ren Hongchuan, has formidable strength; hard to fathom, but at least a dominant figure at the King\'s Realm, and the most important figure in the Dragon Nation\'s King\'s Alliance..."
Wu Yuanlang talked eloquently, starting to narrate the glorious history and powerful strength of the Martial Asura Hall.
Chu Feng also learned from his narration that above the Martial Master realm is the Town Lord realm, guarding a region, a pillar of humanity. Above the Town Lord is the Extreme Wilderness realm, with the strength to push across the Eight Wildernesses and the Four Poles, a rare expert among humans.
Above the Extreme Wilderness is the War God realm, dominating the world, known as a martial deity.
After the War God realm is the King\'s Realm, called the king by humans, the guardian of the tribe.
The martial path is indeed glorious; Chu Feng listened with excitement, imagining the strength of War Gods and Kings, perhaps making nuclear weapons mere toys before them.
The Chief of the Martial Asura Hall, Ren Hongchuan, is actually a dominant figure at the King\'s Realm.
"Whoa! The Martial Asura Hall is indeed formidable!"
Members recruited by the Martial Asura Hall are at least innate warriors. Those below innate warriors have no significance to the Martial Asura Hall.
The standards are high, astonishing.
However, Wu Yuanlang said that Qingzhou is only a third-level base city, with only six million people, and the spiritual energy is scarce, resources are lacking, and innate warriors are naturally rare.
Jiangning, as a second-level base city, has a population of over a hundred million, with an exquisite spiritual vein inside, rich in spiritual energy, far beyond Qingzhou.
Every year, there are two to three hundred innate warriors. In first-level base cities like Zhonghai and Yanjing, with countless resources and numerous second and third-level base cities under their jurisdiction, there are even more innate warriors.
After narrating the glorious history of the Martial Asura Hall, Wu Yuanlang began to dangle a carrot: "The treatment we offer at the Martial Asura Hall is among the best in the entire Dragon Nation. As long as you join us, we will provide you with an initial capital of fifty million, free access to two Earth-ranked martial arts or one Heaven-ranked martial art. As for the remaining martial arts, resources, etc., you can offset them with contributions to the hall or buy them with cash, and of course, the purchase price is 20% off the market price."
"What?" Chu Feng was shocked.
Although he had expected that the Martial Asura Hall\'s treatment would be excellent, he didn\'t expect it to be so extravagant.
My goodness!
An initial capital of fifty million, free access to a Heaven-ranked martial art... this simply blinded his titanium alloy eyes.
He originally thought he had some family background, but unexpectedly, it turned out that the initial capital provided by the Martial Asura Hall was even more than what he had.
Chu Feng suddenly remembered a joke from his past life, about a person who worked hard all his life, earned a few million, and those earnings were just a small amount for a wealthy family\'s watch.
How similar!
However, what this reflected was the enormous financial and material resources of the Martial Asura Hall, undoubtedly a first-class force in the empire.
Chu Feng also had some thoughts; after all, it\'s good to enjoy the shade of a big tree, and the Martial Asura Hall was indeed a good choice.
Wu Yuanlang, such a character, immediately sensed that Chu Feng was tempted.
Seizing the opportunity, he said, "Joining the Martial Asura Hall also comes with a benefit: you can reside in the Martial Asura Hall\'s luxury residential area. The security there is tight, but the crucial point is that any attack on the residential area will be considered a declaration of war against the Martial Asura Hall, and any provoking force will be wiped out."
Wu Yuanlang paused after saying this, then spoke mysteriously, "I see you seem to have some unpleasantness with the Lin family. With your strength, they might find it challenging to kill you. However, the Lin family acts darkly and ruthlessly; they might capture your sister to force you to submit."
"But as long as you join the Martial Asura Hall, your sister will live in the Martial Asura Hall\'s luxury residential area, and you will have no worries."
Chu Feng\'s face turned iron-blue instantly, and he felt angry inside. The Martial Asura Hall actually investigated him secretly and knew so much about him.
He suppressed the anger and said, "You at the Martial Asura Hall are also conducting such covert investigations; isn\'t this inconsistent with your principles?"
The Martial Asura Hall\'s master remained calm, without any fluctuation in his expression, and said in a low voice, "It\'s been several days since you last visited our hall. If we can\'t even find out such trivial things, we might as well disband!"
"And after we found out, we didn\'t disturb you and your family for these few days. This is our reputation! A sword can kill or save, and a sword is just a weapon; the key is who wields it."
Chu Feng calmed down now, realizing that super forces like the Martial Asura Hall inevitably conduct thorough investigations when recruiting talents. There\'s no way to avoid it.
A sword can kill or save! The key is the wielder\'s attitude toward it.
Chu Feng naturally understood that there was nothing wrong with these words. The key point was that his sister, Chu Ruolan, was his only relative.
So, for a moment, his emotions surged, and his reaction was too intense.
Now that Chu Feng had calmed down, after thinking for a while, he was about to ask a few questions of concern.
Suddenly, Jiang Tian\'s voice came, "Chu Feng, have you finished talking with the hall master? The award ceremony is about to take place!"
Chu Feng showed a apologetic expression, "Hall Master, I\'m almost captivated by the generous conditions of the Martial Asura Hall, but time is tight, and I indeed need some time to think. After I sort out my thoughts, I will contact the hall master as soon as possible. What do you think?"
After all, joining a super force is a big deal.
With the extraordinary system on his body, entering the Martial Asura Hall might be a blessing or a curse. Chu Feng felt that he should think about it more.
Wu Yuanlang, the hall master, didn\'t mind at all. He smiled and said, "Of course, take your time to think. When you\'ve made up your mind, come to the Martial Asura Hall to find me. After a simple test, you can join our big family."
Having experienced countless storms, Wu Yuanlang was confident that the Martial Asura Hall was Chu Feng\'s only choice.
Chu Feng clasped his hands and walked out of the tent.
Vice President Song Haishan of the Martial Association stood on the award podium, his voice resonating like a bell, instantly echoing in the ears of the crowd, enhanced by pure elemental energy.
"This Five Elements Trial has come to a perfect conclusion! The students who participated in the trial, it\'s your outstanding performances that made this trial brilliant, like a vivid and colorful painting, permanently engraved in the history of the Qingzhou Five Elements Trial."
"Among you, many geniuses have emerged, especially student Chu Feng, number 1398, with a remarkable and miraculous achievement, creating a historic record of 4614 points. The value of this score goes without saying—it\'s unprecedented and difficult to surpass! Also, many other participants like Li Chenyi achieved excellent results. Congratulations!" Song Haishan stroked his beard, smiling, addressing the densely packed crowd below.
Thunderous applause erupted from below, the sound waves so powerful that they dispersed the clouds.
Chu Feng instantly became the focal point of everyone\'s attention on the stage, receiving countless gazes filled with envy, longing, and jealousy.
Only the father and son of the Lin family had gloomy expressions, especially Lin Zhennan, whose eyes stared at Chu Feng like venomous snakes.
His inner hatred reached its peak: "What kind of miracle? He just snatched my points; the first place should have been mine."
After having his points looted, Lin Zhennan, although they also looted some points later, only managed to secure the thirteenth place. The second place went to the old rival, Li Chenyi.
In this trial, not only were his points plundered, but he was also turned into a pig\'s head. His ranking plummeted to beyond the top ten, losing all face.
"Alright! No more words. Let\'s proceed with the award ceremony! First, let me invite our trial champion, student Chu Feng, to come on stage and receive the award!" Song Haishan\'s resounding voice echoed once again.
Facing the admiring gazes, a bright smile appeared on Chu Feng\'s face. Under the setting sun, he emitted a dazzling starlight, so glaringly bright.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, Chu Feng was the most dazzling star in this land.
As Chu Feng ascended the platform, his heroic face triggered countless screams.
"Chu Feng! You\'re so handsome!"
"Boss Chu, in the future, you must take care of me. I want to follow you!"
"Chu Feng, I want to have your babies!" Some infatuated individuals even emitted sharp screams.
...
With a warm expression, Song Haishan handed the golden medal to Chu Feng. "Chu Feng, your talent is extraordinary. I hope you will continue to make greater contributions to the human race in the future!"
"I will definitely work hard!" Chu Feng humbly received the medal.
"This is a little reward from the Martial Association: fifty thousand yuan in cash, plus a Nine-Turn Blood Condensation Pill and two Second-Rank demonic beast heartblood. I hope they will assist in your cultivation!" Vice President Song handed Chu Feng a golden anonymous card and three vials.
The prizes that had excited Chu Feng a few days ago now failed to evoke the slightest emotional fluctuation.
Separation for three days, and things already look different!
Chu Feng sighed inwardly.
"By the way, remember to participate in the assessment at the Martial Association as soon as possible! A talent like you surprisingly has no records at the Martial Association; this won\'t do!" Vice President Song reminded him again.
"I will definitely go for the assessment as soon as possible!" Chu Feng felt somewhat helpless, hurriedly promising.
As Chu Feng descended from the award platform, a low voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Pay attention to the Lin family!"
Chu Feng instantly knew that this was Vice President Song Haishan using a sound transmission to remind him.
His expression changed, and he lost interest in the subsequent awards, starting to contemplate how to proceed.
"Do I need to immediately join the Martial Asura Hall?"
...
"Let\'s go! What are you thinking, young man? You\'re lost in thought!" Principal Jiang Tian lightly patted his shoulder, smiling and reminding.
Only then did Chu Feng realize that the award ceremony had already ended, and people were starting to disperse, leaving in elemental energy vehicles.
He awkwardly rubbed his nose, looked around, saw no one, and then whispered, "Principal, do you think the Martial Asura Hall is reliable?"
Principal Jiang Tian pondered for a moment, surprised, and said, "The Martial Asura Hall is one of the top forces in the Dragon Nation, and it has always had a good reputation. Why do you think it\'s unreliable? But that\'s for you to judge."
How could they know about Chu Feng, who had a system that defied the heavens? Chu Feng\'s internal conflict was here.
"Never mind. If the Martial Asura Hall doesn\'t have too many restrictions, why not join? After all, there\'s no completely safe place, and if the restrictions are too great, I\'ll consider it." Chu Feng secretly decided in his heart.He nodded at Principal Jiang Tian, lifted the huge backpack into the trunk of the elemental energy vehicle, and began the journey back.
At the same time, he called his sister, Chu Ruolan, not only to report his safety but also to remind her to be careful.
After the elemental energy bus returned to the city, it happened to pass by the entrance of the Nine Cauldrons Mall, and Chu Feng got off directly.
He planned to sell all the materials he had gained this time and, in passing, buy foundation-building spirit medicines for his sister.
As Chu Feng entered the bustling Nine Cauldrons Mall, carrying the enormous bundle, he immediately attracted numerous strange looks, as if the large package had startled everyone.
A well-dressed beauty in professional attire approached him, saying, "Sir, may I help you with something?"
"I need to sell a large quantity of materials from Second-Rank demonic beasts. Please bring the manager and appraiser responsible for material acquisition." Chu Feng calmly stated.
Soon, a beautiful woman in red knee-high boots, with fair legs and a graceful figure, walked over.
The boots made crisp and pleasant sounds on the clean floor as she approached.
"Hello handsome, I\'m the manager here, Ye Xuan. Please follow me!" The woman, Ye Xuan, with her bird-like voice, said with a charming smile.
Her appearance immediately caused a commotion, attracting numerous heated gazes. Some even showed signs of being infatuated, their faces turning red as they swallowed uncontrollably.
Chu Feng inwardly praised, "What a beauty."
However, having seen many beautiful celebrities in his previous life, he entered with an appreciation for beautiful things, calmly walking into a VIP trading room.
Inside, a middle-aged man wearing glasses, already waiting, was likely an appraiser.
Except for the Purple Yuan Spirit Wine and the processed flesh of the Silver Moon Wolf King, Chu Feng dumped everything else onto the worktable.
"These are the fangs of the mutated Silver Moon Wolf King... and the fur of the mutated Rampaging Ape..." The appraiser\'s eyes immediately lit up, excitedly commenting.
Even Ye Xuan, using her jade-like hand to cover her red lips, asked with an expression full of amazement, "May I ask if you\'re Chu Feng, the champion of the Five Elements Trial?"
Chu Feng nodded, "These are my gains from the trial. Please estimate their value. If it\'s acceptable, I\'ll sell them to your mall."
Ye Xuan, who recognized him right away, made Chu Feng understand that she was not an ordinary person; she was likely a high-ranking member of the Nine Cauldrons Mall, with reliable sources of information that couldn\'t be concealed.
Considering Chu Feng\'s significant gains from this trial, he had already decided to explore the Five Elements Mountain periodically in the future. There were many big deals to be made with the Nine Cauldrons Mall.
Candidness leads to mutual trust!
"Hehe, rest assured, Mr. Chu. Our mall\'s price will definitely satisfy you."
As it turned out, the appraiser quickly estimated a figure, "A total value of 34.6 million yuan."
Chu Feng, who had some understanding of the pricing system for demonic beast materials before coming here, knew that demonic beast cores and demonic beast hearts were the most valuable, especially demonic beast cores, whose value was extremely high but only existed in Third-Rank demonic beasts and above.
For lower-tier demonic beasts, the value of demonic beast hearts largely determined their overall worth.
The offered price was fair.
Ye Xuan immediately confirmed, "Even if it\'s 35 million, it\'s fine. Also, in the future, Brother Chu, please remember Nine Cauldrons Mall if you have good materials!"
Chu Feng nodded in satisfaction. Inwardly, he was quite excited. Unexpectedly, he made so much money from a single trial.
If he also sold the demonic beast hearts, especially the two mutated demonic beast hearts, their value would be extremely high. The profit might double.
This didn\'t even consider the non-sellable Purple Yuan Spirit Wine.
Profits! Exploring the wilderness was definitely profitable.
However, Chu Feng completely underestimated the danger of the trial. Several students had died in the Five Elements Mountain this time.
Also, this was due to his abnormal strength. Lin Zhennan, for example, consumed eight Divine Aura Arrows and a Beast Sealing Talisman and still couldn\'t defeat the mutated Ape King.
In fact, the value of a single Beast Sealing Talisman already exceeded the overall value of the mutated Ape King.
Thirty-five million, finally, he wasn\'t a pauper anymore. Now, he could buy the best foundation-building spirit medicines for his sister.
Chu Feng\'s eyes sparkled, making a decision instantly.
Ye Xuan, seeing that Chu Feng had no objections, gracefully handed him a golden card and whispered, "This is our Nine Cauldrons Mall\'s password-free VIP card. The 35 million is already inside. Would you like to verify it?"
Chu Feng casually took it, saying, "No need. I still trust the reputation of your mall."
The Nine Cauldrons Mall was a commercial giant in the Dragon Country, backed by formidable forces. They wouldn\'t scheme for such a small amount of money.
Ye Xuan nodded with a smile and whispered, "With this card, you can directly access the VIP trading room on the first floor in the future. Also, you\'ll enjoy a 5% discount on anything you buy!"
A 5% discount might seem small, but for many high-value treasures, it was a significant amount of money.
Chu Feng\'s face showed a hint of joy as he straightforwardly said, "Excellent. I\'m looking to buy the best foundation-building spirit medicine, the Jade Dew Jadeite Pill. Does your esteemed mall have it in stock?"
Upon receiving 35 million, Chu Feng had already decided to buy the best foundation-building spirit medicine for Chu Ruolan.
Ye Xuan\'s expression changed slightly, "The Jade Dew Jadeite Pill is indeed out of stock in the mall at the moment. However, I do have one with me. I can sell it to you... but the Nine Curves Profound Spirit Liquid, priced at one million, is also quite effective. Are you sure you want to spend 30 million on the Jade Dew Jadeite Pill?"
Ye Xuan kindly reminded him of the cost-effective alternative.
Chu Feng laughed heartily, "No need. My sister needs it, so we\'ll go with the Jade Dew Jadeite Pill. Miss Ye, please proceed with the transaction!"
Ye Xuan\'s face showed approval, "Your younger sister is very fortunate to have such a brother."
Saying this, she magically produced a jade-green bottle from thin air. Inside was the Jade Dew Jadeite Pill.
Chu Feng opened the bottle, and immediately, a refreshing medicinal fragrance wafted through the air, soothing the entire body. The medicine had a gentle and long-lasting effect, making it an excellent elixir for cultivating the martial path.
He quickly sealed the bottle and transferred 28.5 million to Ye Xuan.
After completing the transaction, Chu Feng didn\'t leave immediately.
He rhythmically tapped the table and occasionally glanced at the silver ring on Ye Xuan\'s hand. "Miss Ye, just now, when you took out the Jade Dew Jadeite Pill out of thin air, did you use spatial storage equipment?"
If it weren\'t for Chu Feng\'s extremely strong spiritual power, he wouldn\'t have been able to sense that Ye Xuan had taken the pill from the ring.
Chu Feng was shocked, realizing that spatial storage rings were indeed real. This was amazing!
With a spatial storage ring, he wouldn\'t have to carry this huge and strange bundle. In the future, when venturing into the mountains, it would not only be convenient but also more concealed. Others wouldn\'t be able to tell the size of his harvest or whether he had any treasures. If he acquired a thousand-year ginseng or a millennium Zhu Guo and put them in the ring, their aroma wouldn\'t give them away.
Ye Xuan, hearing Chu Feng\'s question, looked a bit flustered, instinctively shrinking her arm. Then she pursed her lips, pretending to be calm, "Chu Feng, you are indeed well-informed! You even know about spatial storage rings."
Chu Feng\'s heart was secretly excited. So spatial storage rings were real! This was truly miraculous!
Rubbing his hands, he asked with some excitement, "May I ask, Miss Ye, how much is the spatial storage ring worth?"
Ye Xuan showed a hint of playful smile on her face and whispered, "If you want to buy this young lady\'s spatial storage ring, I advise you to save your effort! It\'s not for sale. It\'s a non-negotiable item."
Not for sale! A look of disappointment appeared on Chu Feng\'s face.
Chu Feng unwillingly asked, "Not for sale at any price?"
"Humph! Spatial storage rings cannot be crafted with current human technology. Those that appear are usually discovered in ancient ruins, and their quantity is extremely rare! To put it simply, even if it were for sale, it would be worth at least tens of billions. Moreover, these items are usually traded with star crystals," Ye Xuan explained with a raised eyebrow, somewhat speechless.
Star crystals, Chu Feng had some understanding of them. They were precious cultivation resources, and he hadn\'t even seen them yet.
This spatial storage ring was undoubtedly extremely precious. Although Ye Xuan had one, she considered it a treasure and wouldn\'t sell it to him.
Chu Feng awkwardly touched his nose, chuckled, and shook his head, waving goodbye to Ye Xuan.
He hailed a cab directly, ready to go home and celebrate with his sister.
---
In the eastern part of Qingzhou City, within a vast and luxurious villa area.
In the central grand hall, a sturdy old man with a cold expression sat in the main seat, exuding a powerful aura.
Next to him sat a sinister-looking man, Lin Yu Jian. Standing beside them was a young man with a swollen face, Lin Zhen Nan, carefully trying to please them.
The burly old man furrowed his brows, displeased, "Three of our Lin family\'s masters, the patriarch is currently in closed-door cultivation, and the second uncle is leading a team to vigorously develop the commercial routes with Yangzhou. Only I, an early-stage master, am sitting in the Lin family. If I fail to capture Chu Feng and let him escape, it will be a great disaster for the Lin family."
"After all, from the information, that Chu Feng definitely has the strength of a Grandmaster. If he comprehended the Micro Realm, after obtaining the Purple Element Spirit Wine, he probably has already advanced to the Master Realm. Although I\'ve been in the Master Realm for several years, I still haven\'t reached the mid-stage. It\'s easy to defeat him, but killing or capturing Chu Feng will be difficult! Your suggestion, Zhen Nan, is not feasible."
Lin Zhen Nan looked embarrassed, lowering his head obediently, not daring to speak again. His previous suggestion of having the eldest uncle take action directly to kill Chu Feng to vent his grievances was directly vetoed by the eldest uncle.
Lin Yu Jian forced a laugh, opening his mouth to echo, "Big brother is right! Now, when the patriarch is crucially in seclusion, and the second uncle is absent, it\'s not suitable for a strong kill. It\'s better to lure Chu Feng to our home, then intoxicate him with the \'Immortal Drunk,\' turning him into a human puppet without him knowing. That would be the best plan."
He spoke in a low voice, with a sinister expression, as if he were a demon from hell.
Hearing Lin Yu Jian\'s words, Lin Zhen Nan trembled all over, shivering with fear. The hair on his body stood on end.
"If Chu Feng doesn\'t fall for it, then we can use the second plan—luring him into a trap and having the Tianlang Gang, this troublemaker, deal with him. Since the Tianlang Gang is powerful and mysterious, we can make use of them. Finally, if that fails too, we\'ll resort to the third plan—inviting the Blood Kill Society to take action. It\'s said that this force is spread throughout the Blue Sea Star, and as long as you pay enough money, they can kill not only Chu Feng but even Masters and possibly a General if the price is right."
The burly old man contemplated for a moment, nodding, "Third brother\'s suggestion is feasible. Zhen Nan, you go and show some sincerity, inviting Chu Feng to visit the Lin family. If he refuses, then use the Tianlang Gang as a tool, leveraging the identity of the Tianlang Gang\'s Wolf Master to deal with Chu Feng. If even that fails, we\'ll have to resort to the third plan or wait for the patriarch to come out of seclusion."
Lin Yu Jian added, "Directly inviting the Wolf Master might not work unless the patriarch intervenes. But we can use the second-in-command, \'Red Fox,\' to help."
Night fell, and Chu Feng finally returned to his home in the Nan Cheng Hua Yuan residential area.
"Brother, you\'re back!" Chu Ruolan greeted him with joy.
Chu Feng affectionately patted his sister\'s head, feeling the warmth of the moment.
After a while, Chu Feng took out a jade pendant, saying with a gentle smile, "Look, what did big brother buy for you?"
"What? Blood Qi Dispersing Powder?" Chu Ruolan\'s beautiful eyes lit up with excitement.
"Hehe, it\'s better than Blood Qi Dispersing Powder; it\'s a precious Foundation Establishment Spirit Pill!" Chu Feng chuckled, not revealing the name or the price of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Chu Ruolan\'s eyes teared up instantly, and she said with emotion, "Brother, you\'re the best!"
Chu Feng pinched his sister\'s chubby cheek, "Don\'t cry; our good days are coming. There are instructions on the bottle; go and take a look. Let\'s start the Foundation Establishment in the next few days!"
Taking the crisp jade pendant from Chu Feng, Chu Ruolan agreed with a nod and happily skipped back to her room.
After putting the wolf king meat into the refrigerator, Chu Feng went to his own room.
Although he didn\'t know what the Lin family\'s next move would be, he had already sensed a hint of danger.
In cultivation, one should be prepared for all possibilities!
That was Chu Feng\'s strategy.
He took out the Nine Revolutions Blood Coagulation Pill, swallowed five portions of second-tier demonic beast heartblood, and then drank a few sips of Purple Element Spirit Wine. He once again immersed himself in cultivation.
After a long time, a subtle change finally appeared on Chu Feng\'s calm face.
The blood in his body was undergoing an astonishing transformation.
The blood flowed like a torrent, and the blood essence was thick like pulp, causing ripples like waves in a river. It emitted infinite whirlpools, continuously absorbing the surrounding energy.
The Nine Revolutions Blood Coagulation Pill unexpectedly triggered another advancement in his blood.
The five portions of demonic beast heartblood and Purple Element Spirit Wine were quickly consumed.
But the blood qi surged like a tide, more turbulent and surging, even emitting a rumbling sound.
"Not enough. I need more energy."
Chu Feng once again swallowed five portions of demonic beast heartblood and directly consumed all the opened Purple Element Spirit Wine.
"Boom!"
Blood and qi instantly boiled, like a long drought meeting a gentle rain, roaring crazily and undergoing transformation. It produced a thunderous muffled sound, exuding an aura that could suppress everything.
Insufficient, I need more energy.
Chu Feng again swallowed five portions of demonic beast heartblood and poured down all the opened Purple Element Spirit Wine.
"Boom!"
The blood and qi boiled again, like a surging tide, even louder and more violent, producing a rumbling sound.
Insufficient, I need more energy.
Chu Feng once again swallowed five portions of demonic beast heartblood and drank the remaining Purple Element Spirit Wine.
"Boom!"
The blood and qi were like a raging sea, and this time, it seemed to have reached its peak. It emitted a thunderous sound, and the oppressive aura became even stronger.
Unfortunately, I still haven\'t reached the level of the Blood and Qi Condensing Bead!
Chu Feng sighed. The Blood and Qi Condensing Bead represented the completion of blood cultivation and a direct promotion to a General.
However, the blood qi surging like a tide, turbulent and surging, emitting a thunderous sound, seemed capable of suppressing any opponent instantly.
After observing his internal state, Chu Feng found that his blood cells had completely differentiated from other cells. They were like full-blooded blood beads, filled with an immortal spark power.
"Unfortunately, it still hasn\'t reached the level of the Blood and Qi Condensing Bead!" Chu Feng sighed.
The Blood and Qi Condensing Bead represented the completion of blood cultivation, a direct path to becoming a General. However, with the blood qi surging and boiling like a tide, it seemed capable of suppressing any opponent instantly.
After a thorough inspection, Chu Feng found that his blood qi value had just exceeded 30 points.
Reaching the state of blood and qi being like mercury was simply unimaginable. This was a shocking achievement, requiring extraordinary talent.
The astonishing changes in his blood had even affected the "Micro Realm."
Chu Feng estimated that soon he would reach the second level of the Micro Realm. Although his combat power wouldn\'t change, the finesse of using qi would be even more detailed and exquisite, reaching the peak and producing even stronger power.
"Combat power reaches 900,000, the breakthrough to the second level of the Micro Realm is imminent. This time, the cultivation effect is good!" Chu Feng contemplated inwardly.
"Ring, ring, ring!" Suddenly, a phone call interrupted Chu Feng\'s cultivation and contemplation.
Chu Feng answered the call, "Hello! Am I speaking to Big Brother Chu Feng? I\'m Luo Hua. You won the championship today; come out and celebrate with us! We\'re in the Dynasty Grand Hotel, room number T. Big Brother, come over quickly!"
Wangchao Hotel, that\'s the most luxurious hotel in Qingzhou. The presidential suite is the most expensive room.
Chu Feng frowned slightly, excusing himself, "What time is it? I might not go."
In a worried tone, Luo Hua on the phone urged, "Boss, you must come! Yanran is also here, you have to come and support me. I\'ve boasted quite a bit..."
In the end, Luo Hua\'s words were filled with pleading.
Helpless, Chu Feng chuckled, "Alright! Stop pretending to be pitiful. I\'ll be there in a while."
Having won the championship, it seemed reasonable to celebrate.
Chu Feng informed his sister of his departure, then took a taxi to Wangchao Hotel.
At the entrance of Wangchao Hotel, luxury cars lined up, and numerous beautiful women and prominent figures came in and out, creating a scene of prosperity.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?" a handsome waiter asked, looking at Chu Feng\'s ordinary attire with a smile that lacked sincerity.
Chu Feng snorted and said, "I didn\'t make a reservation. My friend booked the presidential suite, and I\'m here to join the meal."
The waiter, embarrassed, forced a smile, suddenly realizing, "You\'re Mr. Chu Feng, right? I\'m sorry, really sorry! Please come in quickly!"
The instructions for the presidential suite had been given earlier, so when Chu Feng arrived, he was immediately ushered upstairs. He almost caused a mistake himself.
Ignoring the waiter, Chu Feng walked straight in.
When he pushed open the door to the presidential suite, he was momentarily stunned.
Unexpectedly, the people inside were beyond his expectations.
Luo Hua, Wang Yanran, and surprisingly, Lin Zhennan were there, along with Shi Tao and several students from Class Five, including Qin Xingyu.
Chu Feng\'s brow immediately furrowed. What kind of play were Lin Zhennan and Shi Tao performing?
Although he intended to leave, Luo Hua had already run over.
"Boss, come in quickly, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Why are these two here? What\'s the meaning?" Chu Feng asked with a dark expression.
"Ah! Boss, Master Lin has already explained to me and Yanran. The incident during the trial was a complete misunderstanding. Moreover, he had some unnecessary conflicts with you during the trial. He specifically invited you to come, and today is meant to apologize to you. Shi Tao also felt that he was too arrogant before and voluntarily asked for an apology." Luo Hua quickly explained.
"Apology?" A cold smile appeared on Chu Feng\'s lips.
Probably, the weasel giving New Year\'s greetings to the rooster isn\'t sincere!
Shi Tao even ran over, trying to please, "Boss Chu, before, I was shortsighted and made you angry. I\'m just a small character, just treat me as nothing!"
"This is... too fawning..." Such words from a towering man gave Chu Feng a chill, and he almost dropped his chicken skin bumps all over the floor.
Chu Feng directly bypassed him and sat down, saying lightly, "We have no grudges. It was just a competition. It\'s just that you\'re holding a grudge!"
If it weren\'t for Shi Tao being too arrogant and then finding Lin Zhennan afterwards, there wouldn\'t have been so much trouble later.
Only after receiving a pardon, Shi Tao returned to his seat in a sneaky manner.
Lin Zhennan showed sincerity on his face, speaking respectfully, "Well said! I agree with Senior Chu Feng\'s words. As the saying goes, it\'s better to resolve disputes than to create enmities. After returning home, my father gave me a good lesson, instructing me to invite Senior Chu Feng to our house as a guest and express our sincerity in person. Please, Senior, honor us with your presence!"
Sure enough, the fox\'s tail was revealed.
Chu Feng sneered inwardly.
Although unsure of the purpose behind the invitation from the Lin family, it was definitely not for reconciliation.
It could be a trap, an attempt to strike when cornered, with Lin\'s master directly dealing with him, or perhaps something as despicable as poisoning during the banquet.
Chu Feng sneered and said indifferently, "Tomorrow, I have an appointment with Master Wu from the Shura Martial Hall. I\'m afraid I won\'t have time for your gathering."
"What about the day after tomorrow?"
"The day after tomorrow is not possible, nor is the day after the day after tomorrow... I don\'t have time for the Lin family\'s banquet in my entire life!" Chu Feng bluntly stated.
Kindness to enemies is cruelty to oneself.
If Lin Zhennan and the Lin family stopped targeting him, sparing them wouldn\'t be impossible.
However, Chu Feng instinctively felt that this guy had not given up his evil intentions, as if a conspiracy was unfolding around him. It was illogical for a normal person to fawn over their opponent, inviting them to their home.
Completely illogical!
Lin Zhennan instantly turned red, alternating between pale and flushed. The anger in his chest was already burning.
As he did so, a barely noticeable trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, indicating that the optimal plan was probably impossible to achieve.
"Good! Young Master Chu is indeed the number one talent in Qingzhou. It seems that my Lin family is too unworthy. I\'ll go to the bathroom!" Lin Zhennan\'s expression changed rapidly, finding an excuse and walked out.
But the fierce color that flashed in his eyes was not hidden from Chu Feng\'s powerful mental strength.
Chu Feng remained calm, greeting his classmates and spreading his powerful mental strength along with Lin Zhennan.
"This is my grudge with Lin Zhennan, unrelated to everyone else! Come on, everyone, let\'s continue!" Chu Feng smiled as if nothing had happened.
...
After leaving the presidential suite, Lin Zhennan\'s face instantly became ferocious as he quickly walked towards a luxurious golden room.
"Hey, isn\'t this Young Master Lin? Why are you not accompanying your talented classmates and came to my place?" The man, Liu Huaqiang, greeted with a sinister scar on his face, known as "Red Tiger," the second in command of the Heavenly Wolf Gang, a ruthless and brutal character, a trusted henchman of the Wolf Master.
Lin Zhennan\'s face showed a hint of anger, "Damn it, this Chu Feng thinks he\'s an unparalleled genius and doesn\'t put me in his eyes. With the clue I provided, he obtained the Purple Yuan Spirit Wine in the Five Elements Mountain. I wanted to buy some at a high price, but this guy refused? Simply too arrogant."
Liu Huaqiang\'s eyes immediately lit up at the mention of the Purple Yuan Spirit Wine. It was a spiritual substance with good effects on martial artists advancing to the Master level.
Seeing Liu Huaqiang\'s greedy gaze, Lin Zhennan secretly rejoiced, knowing that the fish was about to bite the hook. But he remained calm, pretending to have a worried expression, "Brother Qiang, don\'t think about it! This guy looks down on everyone and won\'t spare anyone. Don\'t get yourself in trouble."
Even such a clumsy provocative method was used by Lin Zhennan. However, he had already checked the information and knew that this guy was accustomed to being arrogant; the provocative method might be the most effective.
"Oh, so you mean this Chu Feng has a deep and powerful background?" Liu Huaqiang\'s gaze turned fierce, revealing a cruel expression.
"It\'s not that. In Qingzhou, there are only a few major forces. I haven\'t heard of any astonishing background for Chu Feng. It\'s just that this person awakened his talent, with extraordinary aptitude, hailed as the number one talent in Qingzhou. He\'s proud and overbearing, looking down on everyone, and his strength is amazing. At a young age, he\'s already an intermediate martial artist, even an advanced martial artist." Lin Zhennan concealed Chu Feng\'s true cultivation level, exaggerating a bit.
