Following Zi Yan's words,'I admit defeat,' the entire arena descended into a deathly silence. The questions that had been coming for a long time sounded again.
"Why did senior sister Zi Yan admit defeat? Could it be that he has taken a fancy to Qin Feng?" A wretched male student said ambiguously. What made people even more speechless was that there were actually people who agreed with this statement.
"I think that senior sister Zi Yan's Dou Qi has been exhausted. After all, Dou Qi transforming into wings requires quite a large amount of Dou Qi.”
"That's right. As long as senior sister Zi Yan has sufficient Dou Qi, Qin Feng would have long lost.”
“……”
The Elders were also discussing why Zi Yan wanted to admit defeat.
"What happened? Why would Zi Yan admit defeat? Her battle energy had not been exhausted, so why should she admit defeat?”
"Could it be that Zi Yan intentionally allowed Qin Feng to advance?”
"I think that should be the case. After all, Zi Yan has a good relationship with this Qin Feng.”
" I don't think this explanation..."
In the end, it was Elder Su who said something to stop the elders from arguing."Stop arguing. I think the reason lies in Qin Feng's black saber. After all, every time it changed its shape, it had an incredible power. This time, it must be the ability of this large sword.”
"I told you. Zi Yan, it is good that you admit defeat. You're in this state now." Qin Feng withdrew the spiritual pressure that was poured into the Nightmare Saber. Immediately, the black saber turned into a purple nightmare.
Zi Yan softly snorted. She clenched her small fist tightly and said to Qin Feng,"I lost this time. Next time, I must defeat you, especially your annoying face. I really want to smash it.”
Qin Feng could only laugh dryly at this. He said in his heart,"Did my face provoke you? Why do you hate me so much?”
"With Qin Feng's victory in this match, Qin Feng directly advanced to the top 13.”Su Qian on the viewing gallery announced to all the students.
This time around, the students present were only discussing in low voices. After all, from their point of view, Zi Yan had only admitted defeat because her Dou Qi had been exhausted. Qin Feng did not wish to explain. He instantly appeared on the viewing gallery and leaned against the wall.
"Qin Feng, congratulations on advancing to the top 13.”Xiao Yan and the others by the side spoke to Qin Feng.
"I was merely lucky. If it was not for Zi Yan showing mercy, I would have lost long ago.”Qin Feng scratched the back of his head and said humbly. However, Xiao Yan's group directly filtered out the last sentence. As long as they had seen the battle with Cartes during the 'Fire Energy Hunting Competition', it was likely that no one would doubt Qin Feng's strength.
"The rest of the people who have advanced to the next round, come up to the stage and draw lots.”Su Qian's voice once again reverberated in the sky above the competition ground.
A few rays of light of different colors instantly appeared on the balcony. They were the twenty-four students who had advanced. Among them, Lin Xiuya's method of entering the arena was to step on the air, causing all the students to be shocked.
However, as long as one's strength was high, it was not difficult to see that Lin Xiuya had merely gathered the wind attribute under his feet. This was something that Qin Feng could do as well. It was just that Qin Feng was directly standing on the heaven and earth elements, as if he was walking on the ground. In comparison, Lin Xiuya was a few levels lower.
"Xun Er, why do you keep looking at me?”Qin Feng glanced at Xun Er from the corner of his eyes. Ever since Qin Feng returned to the viewing platform, Xun Er had been looking at him with a strange look in her eyes.
Previously, Qin Feng thought that Xun Er had fallen in love with someone else. However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible. Putting aside the feelings Xun Er had for Xiao Yan in the original novel, Qin Feng himself did not dare to say that Xun Er had fallen in love with him in such a short period of time. Since it was neither of the two, then why?
Xun Er did not say anything. After indifferently glancing at Qin Feng, she turned her head to look at the competition arena. Her expression did not change at all, as though nothing had happened.
Seeing that Aroma did not want to say anything, Qin Feng did not ask for a snub and slowly walked out of the arena. In any case, Qin Feng had also advanced to the top 13. It was not a big problem whether he watched the competition or not.
Because of the competition, the originally lively path in the entire Inner Academy has become abnormally deserted. Qin Feng does not have any goal in his heart, he only strolls aimlessly in the huge Inner Academy.
Unknowingly, Qin Feng had arrived at the core of the Inner Academy, the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. Because of the competition, the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower was closed and all students were not allowed to enter. Qin Feng sat on the branch of a large tree, leaning against the thick trunk. He looked at the slightly distorted space in front of him, his eyes filled with confusion.
"Qin Feng."
A deep voice suddenly rang out in Qin Feng's mind. This voice seemed to come from the nine heavens, able to make everyone forget their worries. At this moment, the confusion in Qin Feng's eyes disappeared and was replaced by excitement.
"Big Brother Nightmare, is that you?" Qin Feng said happily in his heart. Ever since the Nightmare King forcefully expelled Qin Feng from his inner world, no matter how he called out to him, the Nightmare King did not respond. Now that the Nightmare King took the initiative to speak to him, one could imagine how excited Qin Feng was.
"Qin Feng, what are you confused about?”Nightmare did not reply to Qin Feng. Instead, he asked a few questions,"Are you thinking about why this black tower made your heart feel so strongly? Or are you confused about your meaning in this world? Or did he want to return to his original world one day?”
"Big brother Nightmare, I…"
"Qin Feng, everyone who descends into this world has their own path. Xiao Yan's path was to rescue his father. Xiao Xun 'er's path was to silently support the person she liked until that day came. Qin Feng, where does your path lead to?”
"My path? Where does my path lead to?" Qin Feng's body trembled when he heard Nightmare's words. He muttered to himself as the barrier in his heart seemed to be shattering…
……
Ancient race. Among the eight ancient clans of the Central Plains, the strongest clan was the Xiao Clan! After the decline, the Ancient race became the strongest race among the ancient races. Apart from the abnormally mysterious Soul Race.
In the Ancient Realm, in the main hall of the Ancient clan, many elderly figures were present. The atmosphere was extremely heavy and solemn.
Seated in the main seat of the hall was a man who was around forty years old. He appeared to be an ordinary middle-aged man. He was dressed in simple linen clothes and had a smile on his face, causing one to feel a little at ease.
This person was the group leader of the Gu clan, Xun Er's father, Gu Yuan whose cultivation had reached the peak of the nine star Dou Sheng class! At this moment, Gu Yuan was listening to Ling Ying's report.
"Patriarch, this is what the young miss asked me to give to the patriarch.”Ling Ying held a palm-sized jade pendant with both hands and raised it above his head as he spoke in a serious tone.
Seeing this jade pendant, everyone present, including Gu Yuan, had a trace of change in expression. This was because they knew that this jade pendant was a communication device made by the leader of the Gu clan 10,000 years ago, Gu Tian. It could store information inside. Because it was difficult to make, it was not allowed to be used unless the information was important.
Gu Yuan beckoned with his hand, and the jade pendant that was originally lying quietly in Ling Ying's hand actually floated up and slowly flew into Gu Yuan's hand.
When Gu Yuan held the jade pendant in his hand, the jade pendant emitted a purple light, and Gu Yuan closed his eyes. Apart from Ling Ying, the people present were all the top forces of the Gu family. Naturally, they knew that Gu Yuan was reading the information in the jade pendant.
Around three minutes later, Gu Yuan opened his eyes and said to Ling Ying,"Ling Ying, tell me everything you know about that youth Qin Feng.”
"Yes." After Ling Ying replied, he told Gu Yuan everything he knew about Qin Feng.
After Ling Ying finished speaking, the hall fell into a deathly silence. The atmosphere once again became heavy and solemn.
"Ling Ying, you may leave. Don't go to Miss 'side anymore. I will bring her back." Gu Yuan spoke in a faint voice.
"Yes." Ling Ying bowed and said. He was just about to leave when he heard Gu Yuan say,"Call Gu Zhen of the Black Submerged Army over."
"Yes." Ling Ying bowed and retreated.
"Patriarch, what secrets are there in the jade pendant?”After Ling Ying left, an old man asked Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan did not answer and only passed the jade pendants down one by one. However, after looking at them, his face would have a trace of seriousness.
"Patriarch, is this true?" The old man who finished reading the message finally spoke out the name in his heart.
"As long as we invite that Qin Feng over, we'll know if it's true or not.”Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"Gu Zhen of the Black Submerged Army has come to pay an audience at the orders of the clan leader.”Just as Gu Yuan was conversing with the elders, Gu Zhen's voice came from the door.
The door of the hall slowly opened, and a figure appeared at the door.
"Greetings, Patriarch and Elders." This Gu Zhen was dressed in a tight suit and emitted a convincing aura as he asked.
"Gu Zhen, I have a task for you.”
"Patriarch, please instruct me."
"The outside world is currently filled with danger. Who knows when it might descend into chaos. Go and fetch Xun Er back.”
"Yes." Gu Zhen said respectfully.
"There's more." Gu Yuan paused for a moment. After which, he waved his hand and a golden flowing light flew towards Gu Zhen. After arriving in front of Gu Zhen, his true appearance was revealed. It was a gilded jade invitation.
"Other than the first time, pay more attention to the young man called Qin Feng beside Xun Er. Pass this jade invitation to him and invite him to our Gu clan as a guest.”
Gu Zhen's heart palpitated. He was clearly shocked by Qin Feng's identity. He actually made the Clan Leader personally invite him. Although he was surprised, he replied calmly,""Yes." Then, he bowed and left.
"Sigh, after waiting for thousands of years, the prophecy has finally come.”Gu Yuan suddenly sighed. His tone contained a trace of relief. The other elders were also deep in thought.
