Chapter 52: Li Hexuan's Arena

"Leave?!" Ling Yong sneered, "No one who insults me has ever been born in this small town. You're the servant who bullied my sister, right?"

"What? Are you going to seek justice for your sister?" Xu Feng narrowed his eyes at Ling Yong, suddenly curious, "Right! Are you sure you're your father's child? You don't look like your sister at all!"

Xiao Yilin, seeing that Xu Feng was still interested in such gossip, couldn't help but laugh in frustration. How could he be so idle?

"You're asking for death!" Ling Yong channeled his strength into his arm, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he stared at Xu Feng.

Seeing Ling Yong's reaction, Xiao Yilin suddenly darted in front of Xu Feng, spreading her arms to shield him: "You're not allowed to hurt him."

Seeing Xiao Yilin use her body to protect him from Ling Yong, Xu Feng felt a deep touch in his heart. When had someone ever protected him from danger like this?

"Miss! Let me handle it!" Xu Feng smiled at Xiao Yilin, grabbed her hand, and pulled her behind him, "He can't hurt me."

"But he's an Eighth Rank expert, on par with Xiao Lin. You're no match for him. Humph, I'll get my Uncle to deal with him." Xiao Yilin said indignantly.

"Try it and see," Xu Feng smiled at Xiao Yilin, then turned to Ling Yong, "If you really have the skills, go challenge Xiao Lin. Bullying a little girl is nothing to be proud of."

"Xiao Lin?! Just a defeated underling!" Ling Yong said disdainfully, "Besides, I don't need your advice. Today, I'll settle this for my sister, so she doesn't have to look at you."

"Not necessarily!" Xu Feng smiled at Ling Yong, "I recently obtained a technique by chance. I haven't tried it yet. If you're willing, I can let you try it."

Ling Yong, hearing Xu Feng's words, was taken aback and then burst into laughter: "A technique?! Are you out of your mind? You, a Mystic, using a technique?"

Xu Feng smiled at Ling Yong without a word, but his hands were slowly forming seals.

"Xu Feng! What technique do you know? Don't be overconfident! Xiao Lin is nearby, he'll be here soon. Let's escape first." Xiao Yilin said, looking at Xu Feng.

Xu Feng didn't answer Xiao Yilin. The Cold Sealing Technique he had obtained had never been used. Now, he would use Ling Yong to practice, to see if this small town's top young expert could withstand a Ground Rank technique.

"I want to see what tricks you, a mere servant, have up your sleeve." Ling Yong sneered, channeling his full strength into his arm, and swung a punch at Xu Feng.

"Today! I'll show you that even a mere servant has a temper!"

Xu Feng smiled, his hand seals forming rapidly, creating patterns in the air. The temperature around Xu Feng suddenly dropped, and a crystalline ice arrow materialized in front of him.

Seeing the ice arrow, Xu Feng used his palm to push it, and it shot towards Ling Yong with a whistling sound.

Ling Yong, seeing the ice arrow hurtling towards him, his face changed. He didn't expect this servant to actually be able to use a technique. What did this mean? It meant that this servant was both a Mystic and a Sorcerer. Such an existence was already extremely threatening.

"I have to take care of this kid!" Although Ling Yong was surprised by Xu Feng's technique, he didn't take it seriously. After all, with his Eighth Rank strength, could a Sorcerer really change anything?

But just as Ling Yong's fist was about to shatter the ice arrow, his face changed drastically, and he shouted in terror, "Impossible!"

The ice arrow struck his fist, releasing a terrifying cold that surged towards Ling Yong. His hand was instantly frozen and swollen. More importantly, the cold shockwave hit his arm, forcing him back and making him spit out a mouthful of blood. He staggered and fell to one knee, a thin layer of frost covering his body.

Seeing Ling Yong spit out another mouthful of blood, the crowd was in an uproar. They rubbed their eyes and stared at Xu Feng in shock.

"How is this possible? He actually made Ling Yong spit blood with one move. Ling Yong is the top young expert in this small town!"

The crowd was shocked, and an unbelievable thought emerged: Could this mere servant become the top young expert in the small town?

This thought had just emerged when they shook their heads vigorously, dismissing it.

"Ground Rank technique?" Ling Yong's eyes widened, supporting himself with his hand, looking at Xu Feng in disbelief. How could a person who hasn't reached the Spirit Realm use a Ground Rank technique?

Reaching the Ground Rank was already a different level of existence. Those who could use such techniques and techniques were definitely Spirit Realm Mystics and Sorcerers. Because driving a Ground Rank technique required Spirit Qi.

It was precisely because of this that even a Tenth Rank Mystic could only use Mystic-level techniques. But the servant in front of him had completely changed his perception, using a Ground Rank technique with a strength that hadn't reached the Spirit Realm.

Xiao Yilin was also stunned, seeing the frost on Ling Yong's forehead. Her mouth was wide open, as if it could fit an egg: Xu Feng actually used a technique to severely injure Ling Yong?!

"Xu Feng! You did it!" Xiao Yilin tightly hugged Xu Feng's arm, excitedly shaking and shouting.

Xu Feng, shaken by Xiao Yilin, felt like he was about to fall over. He hadn't expected that using this Ground Rank technique would be so draining. His head felt like it was being hammered, and the pain was unbearable, clearly due to the mental strain.

Otherwise, because he was still wary of Ling Yong, Xu Feng would have fallen over.

"Damn! This Cold Sealing Technique is a lose-lose proposition."

Xu Feng, cursing, didn't realize that it was because his strength was too low. With his current strength, using this technique was only possible with the help of the Dao Mystic Canon. The Dao Mystic Canon, from the beginning of cultivation, absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, allowing him to use it by chance.

"Young top expert! Not so impressive, huh!" Xu Feng steadied himself, sneering at Ling Yong.

This sentence made Ling Yong's face turn red, his eyes full of ferocity. Looking at Xu Feng with hatred, he, who had experienced that technique, didn't dare to provoke Xu Feng easily. He was already quite injured.

"Xu Feng! Use your technique again! Take him down!" Xiao Yilin, looking at Ling Yong, shouted excitedly. For Xiao Yilin, she wanted to take revenge on this bastard. How dare he have designs on her? Didn't he know her servant was awesome?!

Xu Feng, hearing Xiao Yilin's words, almost fell over. This woman really thought he was a god. If he could use the technique, he would have done it already. But his head was like a needle, and he was about to faint. How could he use the technique?

Of course, Ling Yong didn't know this. With his blood boiling, he heard Xiao Yilin's words and his eyes narrowed, looking at Xu Feng with fear.

"Xu Feng! Hurry!" Xiao Yilin, looking at Xu Feng, was excited and jumping.

Just as Xu Feng was feeling a terrible headache, a voice rang in his ear, and this voice made Xu Feng completely relax.

"Ling Yong! Try touching Yilin again!" The angry shout proved that Xiao Lin had arrived.

And as Xu Feng relaxed, he finally couldn't hold on and fell over. Xiao Yilin, seeing Xu Feng suddenly fall, her face changed, and she quickly reached out to catch him.

Before fainting, Xu Feng's last thought was: Xiao Yilin's embrace is so soft and fragrant!

Xiao Lin, seeing Xu Feng fall, thought Ling Yong had done something, and shouted at Ling Yong, "Ling Yong, it looks like you really want to start a war with the entire Xiao family. Even bullying Yilin?"

"Damn!" Ling Yong was almost furious, thinking about who was bullying whom. Xiao Yilin was fine, but he was seriously injured.

Xiao Yilin also felt that Xiao Lin's words were too bullying. She tightly held Xu Feng to keep him from falling to the ground and pulled Xiao Lin, saying, "He was severely injured by Xu Feng!"

"What? Severely injured by Xu Feng?" Xiao Lin shouted in shock, looking at Ling Yong, and indeed saw that Ling Yong's face was pale, with blood trickling from his mouth, clearly a serious injury.

This situation made Xiao Lin pause, looking at the youth Xiao Yilin was holding with disbelief. A wave of shock surged in his heart: How is this possible? Ling Yong, that bastard, is still a bit stronger than me!

Xiao Lin shook his head vigorously, dispelling the shock, and his eyes on Xu Feng changed.

However, when he saw Ling Yong, Xiao Lin laughed, "Ling Yong! Aren't you the top young expert in the small town? Today, I'll see where your strength lies!"

Saying this, Xiao Lin, regardless of Ling Yong's serious injuries, punched towards him.

Ling Yong, seeing Xiao Lin take advantage of the situation, his face changed, and he shouted, "Xiao Lin! If you have the skills, let's settle this another day."

Xiao Lin laughed, "I'm in a good mood today, so I want to have a good fight with you! If you kneel and kowtow to me, I'll let you go."

The onlookers, hearing Xiao Lin's words, turned their heads, feeling their faces heat up. This Xiao family's young master was shamelessly righteous!

When Xu Feng woke up, it was already the next day. Walking around the courtyard, he found that the servants who had once ignored him now looked at him with respect. As he passed by, they all bowed to him. Although Xu Feng had no position among the servants, his status in their hearts had risen sharply.

Xu Feng didn't know that the news of him using a technique to severely injure Ling Yong quickly spread throughout the Xiao family. This news caused a storm in the Xiao family. When a mere servant severely injured the top young expert of the small town, Ling Yong, the news was initially met with disbelief.

But when the news was confirmed by the young lady and it was known that Xu Feng was a Sorcerer, almost all the servants who heard the news were speechless, showing great shock!

"Xu Feng is a Mystic and a Sorcerer, and a Sorcerer who can severely injure Ling Yong. This joke seems to be too big!"

Of course, this also greatly shocked Xiao Lin and Xiao Rong. The status of a Sorcerer was already higher than that of a Mystic, and someone who was both was even higher. But the most shocking thing was that Xu Feng, with a strength that hadn't reached the Spirit Realm, had used a Ground Rank technique. This was the most shocking part.

Of course, Xu Feng didn't know any of this. He got up from the fragrant and soft bed, savoring the scent on the bed, and even wondered if it was where Xiao Yilin slept.

What Xu Feng didn't expect was that it was indeed where Xiao Yilin slept. When she saw Xu Feng faint, she had the servants carry him to her room and watched over him for a while. But she couldn't hold on and eventually went to sleep.

"Xu Feng!" Just as Xu Feng felt more refreshed and energetic than the day before, Jiang Yuan's excited voice called out to him.

Turning to see Jiang Yuan running towards him, Xu Feng smiled, "Reached Fifth Rank?"

Jiang Yuan didn't answer Xu Feng's question but instead looked him up and down, finding it hard to understand how the once extremely timid youth could achieve such success. Although he had missed the title of top young expert in the small town due to Xu Feng's faint, he was now on par with Ling Yong and others.

"How did you do it?" Jiang Yuan looked at Xu Feng with wide eyes.

Xu Feng shrugged, "Just practiced and practiced until I did it."

"Damn..." Jiang Yuan couldn't help but curse, "Just practiced and practiced until you did it?! Do you think it's like giving birth, where you just do it and it happens!"

Xu Feng didn't argue with Jiang Yuan. After all, the Dao Mystic Canon couldn't be explained even if he wanted to. He changed the subject, "Have you reached Fifth Rank?"

"Top of Fifth Rank!" Jiang Yuan raised his head proudly, but thinking of facing Xu Feng, this monster, he couldn't help but lower it.

Xu Feng was surprised. He didn't expect Jiang Yuan to reach the top of Fifth Rank with the potions he had given him. It seemed that the foundation he had laid was very solid, allowing him to quickly reach this level.

"Now I'm the Third Manager!" Jiang Yuan looked at Xu Feng and smiled. After reaching Fifth Rank, he was appointed as the Third Manager by Xiao Rong. The original Liu Ke, perhaps due to Xu Feng, was demoted from the position of Third Manager.
