Chapter 73

"Seek Battle?" Huang Shang smiled confidently. "You seem quite popular."

"Of course, much more popular than you." Lin Feng smiled calmly, his eyes suddenly sharp as the energy of heaven and earth surged: "Limitless Qi Sea, First Level."

A surging wave, three meters high, instantly put Lin Feng in a combat state.

"Cadmium Net." Huang Shang did not take it lightly.

Crystal light reappeared in his hands, and with a deep shout, electric snakes danced wildly, instantly forming a cadmium net that was airtight.

Apart from Xia Ling's astonishing special ability, 'Niobium Power,' no student at the Battle Academy had been able to break through this cadmium net until now. Huang Shang was confident in his signature move. With a fierce shout, the cadmium net expanded again, like a stretched piece of cloth.

Lin Feng's figure arrived in an instant.

"Let's end this." A sneer appeared at the corner of Huang Shang's mouth. The control of cadmium power was on par with Yue Meng. The cadmium net instantly surrounded Lin Feng, an impeccable move that elicited a chorus of gasps from the audience, all of whom were worried for Lin Feng.

"Seven Spiral Slash, First Move: Evil Dragon Entanglement!" Lin Feng drew his blade.

With a clean and agile movement, accompanied by the shadow-like battle knife, the surging waves seemed to embody the indomitable figure of a lone sail, swinging out the most powerful strike. The blade's intent was fierce and unyielding, the spiritual energy penetrating through, and from the start, Lin Feng gave it his all.

His opponent was Huang Shang, who almost won the Sunset City 18 and Under New Star Competition last year.

Though arrogant, he had real talent.

...

"Oh?" Lei Gang and Teng Lan's pupils dilated instantly.

One move was enough to gauge one's strength.

"Impossible!" Huang Shang's face turned pale as he felt the terrifying power within the cadmium net, like a surging tide rushing towards him. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Second Level, Double Layer Cadmium Net, 20,000 Volts!" The current surged, and the cadmium power emerged astonishingly. Huang Shang was decisive, his eyes sharp as he drew his soft sword, aiming directly at Lin Feng.

He felt the danger!

But...

"Break it!" The waves behind Lin Feng rose from three meters to five meters.

Before breaking through the初级古武将 (初级古武将 should be translated as "初级古武者" which means "初级 Ancient Martial Artist"), Lin Feng had already purchased and successfully cultivated the second level of the Limitless Qi Sea.

Compared to the Nine Dragon True Scripture, the comprehension of the Limitless Qi Sea... was too simple.

"Boom!" Lin Feng's attack was more than terrifying; his abnormal physical strength, even with the second level of the Limitless Qi Sea, could reach the attack strength of a high-level Ancient Martial Warrior. And if he used spiritual energy to burst out...

It could rival a初级 Ancient Martial Venerable!

If Huang Shang could cultivate to the third level of the cadmium net, he might be able to block it, but the second level... was far from enough.

"Bang!" Breaking through the double-layer cadmium net, the remaining force made Huang Shang's tiger mouth tingle, and the soft sword's electric light dissipated. Human energy was limited, and Huang Shang's main strength was used to control the cadmium net, making his attack naturally weaker. And in close combat, it was not his forte.

Lin Feng was not unscathed either.

The terrifying current exceeded ten thousand volts. If not for the spiritual energy protecting his body, he would have been paralyzed.

Such an opponent must be defeated quickly.

"Seven Spiral Slash, Second Move: Flying Fish Spin." With the burst of spiritual energy, Lin Feng shouted. The gray wolf battle knife emitted a resonant sound, and the indomitable blade intent swung out a powerful strike, like a flying fish breaking through the waves in the sea. If Evil Dragon Entanglement was an attack on the 'surface,' then Flying Fish Spin was an attack on the 'point.'

The power was extremely strong!

"No!" Huang Shang's face was filled with horror. The cadmium power burst to its limit, and the current in his soft sword formed a ball, attempting to block Lin Feng's strike. But the gray wolf battle knife cut through with a shocking cold light, instantly bursting with boundless combat power, even tearing through the gene battle armor.

"Boom!"

...

Instantly, the audience erupted in thunderous cheers and shouts.

In the battle arena, Huang Shang lay on his back, his eyes filled with disbelief. His gene battle armor was shattered, especially his left shoulder, which had a bloody wound. If Lin Feng had not held back, he would have lost at least an arm.

Despite this, he was severely injured.

Huang Shang lost.

Compared to the battle a year ago, he lost even more miserably.

"Seek Battle!" "Seek Battle!" "Seek Battle!"... The audience chanted in unison, each Battle Academy student's face beaming with satisfaction. In their hearts, Seek Battle was a god, an unbeatable legend.

He was invincible.

The Emperor? The super genius of the Crown Elite Academy?

So what!

...

"Brother Lin is so amazing!" Tao Jing looked at Lin Feng with adoring eyes, though she still didn't know why Lin Feng had become an ancient martial artist.

"Lin Feng, isn't he in a different class from us?" The students of the 102nd batch, the Gene Warrior Division, all had a question in their minds. How did a gene warrior suddenly become an ancient martial artist? Xue Jin swallowed hard, looking at Lin Feng with fear and hatred.

Guo Li, standing in the audience, was completely stunned.

And he was not the only one.

Everyone was shocked by Lin Feng's super strength, including the vice president of the Crown Elite Academy—

Wu Sheng.

"Lin Feng? His name is Lin Feng?" Hearing the voices around him, Wu Sheng looked at the figure in the battle arena with shock, suddenly remembering the young man he had expelled a year and a half ago. The two faces overlapped in an instant, the only difference being that the youth had matured, but otherwise, there was no change.

"Impossible." Wu Sheng muttered, sitting back in his VIP chair in shock.

Teng Lan squinted his eyes, staring intently at Lin Feng, his gaze extremely complex. He never thought that someone in the Battle Academy could defeat Huang Shang, and...

He was so young!

Lei Gang rarely smiled, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Lin Feng, both surprised and satisfied.

...

He won.

Lin Feng's gaze turned to Yue Meng, who was smiling at him, her charming smile and thumbs up. Xia Ling, standing beside her, covered her mouth in disbelief, her face turning red when she met his gaze and quickly turning away.

The cheers of "Seek Battle" were exciting and exhilarating, and Lin Feng couldn't help but smile.

The Battle Academy had shaken off its lethargy!

There was nothing that had to be done or not done.

Since his identity as an ancient martial artist could no longer be kept secret, there was no point in hiding his strength. It would only make his enemies more cautious. Moreover, as a member of the Battle Academy, he could not stand idly by while the academy was trampled.

People always have feelings.

"But..."

"It seems everyone only recognizes Seek Battle."

Lin Feng smiled.

***

"Counselor wants to see me?" Lin Feng was slightly surprised.

"Congratulations, Lin Feng." Yue Meng smiled with a deep meaning.

Congratulations?

Lin Feng was slightly taken aback but didn't think much of it, assuming Yue Meng was congratulating him on defeating Huang Shang.

"I'll go over there first, Mentor Yue." Lin Feng nodded.

"Go ahead." Yue Meng smiled, leaning close to Lin Feng, her breath like orchids, "Remember, you owe me an explanation."

"I'll come to you."

With that, Yue Meng smiled and left with Xia Ling.

Lin Feng smiled slightly and then headed towards the counselor's office.

...

"Sir." Lin Feng bowed respectfully.

The red-haired man before him was a counselor with a higher status than the Battle Academy's president, and his strength was unfathomable.

Being near him was like being near a blood-soaked blade.

The blade's intent was exceptionally shocking.

"No need to be so formal, just call me Brother Lei from now on." Lei Gang was in a good mood, patting Lin Feng's shoulder and said cheerfully, "Come, let me introduce you. This is Counselor Teng Lan, nicknamed Blue Wolf, very famous, but... he has a small heart." As he spoke, Lei Gang gave a cold sneer.

Lin Feng bowed slightly, his gaze falling on Teng Lan, who was wearing blue gene battle armor. "Greetings, Senior."

"Nice one, kid." Teng Lan smiled, his eyebrows raising, "I wonder... are you interested in joining our Dragon Slayer Island?"

"Blue Wolf!" Lei Gang's eyes turned cold.

Teng Lan laughed heartily, "Just a joke, Brother Lei, don't take it seriously. But... if you're unhappy in the Element Merchant Alliance, you're always welcome to join our Dragon Slayer Island."

Lin Feng smiled, his gaze flicking to Vice President Wu Sheng behind Teng Lan, then back to Teng Lan, "Senior, you flatter me. I don't want to be expelled again."

Again?

Expelled?

Lei Gang and Teng Lan were both taken aback.

In an instant, Wu Sheng's old face turned pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

"What do you mean, little brother?" Teng Lan's smile faded, his voice filled with doubt.

"Nothing." Lin Feng smiled slightly, looking at Wu Sheng, who was drenched in cold sweat, "Vice President Wu, thank you for the expulsion a year and a half ago. It helped me find my true self. Thanks to the Battle Academy for taking me in, I am grateful, and this is truly where I belong."

Teng Lan's eyes widened, his facial muscles twitching.

Turning to look at Wu Sheng, his expression was like a vicious wolf. If looks could kill, Wu Sheng...

Would have died a thousand times over.
