Chapter 46

With the speed of Zhao Feng's "Drifting Ferry," he quickly caught up to the purple-clad girl who was as beautiful as a fairy ahead.

Zhao Yufei's delicate face was slightly tense, still not fully over her anger.

Zhao Feng was completely puzzled, repeatedly asking, but Zhao Yufei did not answer.

She continued on her way, occasionally stealing a glance at the somewhat helpless young man beside her, her expression slightly softening, but she did not deliberately distance herself.

Feeling that she wasn't really angry, Zhao Feng inquired about the "Genius Summit."

"The Genius Summit is a grand event for the young generation of Yuyang City. Those invited are mostly new talents from various regions, not limited to the three major families, but also including outstanding peers from other major forces..."

Zhao Yufei gave a general overview of the Genius Summit.

The purpose of the summit is to select a few widely recognized geniuses through friendly sparring and discussions.

Before long, the two arrived at the entrance of the Zhao family's estate.

At the entrance, several figures stood, including Zhao Linlong, Zhao Feng, and Zhao Han.

"Yufei, you're the last one to arrive..."

Zhao Linlong smiled slightly, his aura deep and profound, subtly emitting a sense of oppression far beyond that of ordinary martial artists.

The aura of the Sixth Level of Martial Dao made many of the Zhao family's young members look up in awe and fear.

Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei walked over and joined the few geniuses of the clan.

Besides the top five from the inner circle, Zhao Qin and Zhao Qing were also present.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Zhao Feng, Zhao Linlong's brows slightly furrowed.

"What? Brother Linlong, you don't welcome me?"

Zhao Feng looked surprised.

Why can't I come?

With his top-three strength in the Zhao family, participating in the Genius Summit should be quite normal.

"Ha ha."

Zhao Linlong smiled calmly, the mocking look in his eyes quickly fading, and he ignored Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng felt a sense of being "ignored" again.

The few Zhao family members present, including Zhao Feng, Zhao Qin, and others, roughly knew the reason.

Zhao Linlong did not leave a spot for Zhao Feng in the Genius Summit.

According to the rules, without an invitation, Zhao Feng could not enter the summit.

"Zhao Linlong isn't explaining, clearly wanting Zhao Feng to be embarrassed later..."

Zhao Feng and Zhao Han's eyes unconsciously showed pity.

Zhao Feng felt the strange atmosphere, and the looks these people gave him were somewhat peculiar.

"Alright, let's go!"

Zhao Linlong gave the order.

"The summit location is at 'Yanbo Lake' near the Qiu family, we're almost there."

Zhao Yufei's clear eyes occasionally turned back, glancing at Zhao Feng, as if afraid he might get lost.

Before long.

A small lake appeared ahead, covering about several dozen acres.

On the side of the lake, there was a peak over a thousand meters high, with steep cliffs and lush greenery.

Strangely, the lake encircled half of the peak.

The summit location was on the peak of Yanbo Lake.

The group used light body martial arts to gracefully ascend the peak.

Plop! Plop! Plop...

Occasionally, one or two young talents would step on the floating leaves of the lake and leap to the peak.

At the top of the peak, the figures of some Qiu family members could be seen.

Since the host of the summit, Qiu Mengyu, came from one of the three major families, the Qiu family, this was also the Qiu family's territory.

"Please show your invitation letters."

At the entrance to the summit, seven or eight young Qiu family martial artists stood in a row.

These martial artists were not from the young generation but the youth generation of the Qiu family, aged in their twenties or thirties, with cultivation mostly above the Fifth Level of Martial Dao.

The young participants entering the summit took out their invitation letters one by one, and the checks were very strict.

The Zhao family members, led by Zhao Linlong, were the first to pass through the entrance.

Next were Zhao Feng, Zhao Han...

Finally, it was Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei's turn.

At this moment, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Linlong's mouth as he glanced at Zhao Feng.

"This is my invitation letter."

Zhao Feng took out his invitation letter.

"Um, that's correct."

The young martial artist nodded, allowing Zhao Feng to enter.

This scene made Zhao Linlong's smile freeze.

Zhao Feng and Zhao Han also looked surprised.

What's going on?

How did Zhao Feng get an invitation letter?

The reactions of the group naturally fell into Zhao Feng's eyes.

He couldn't help but think, his gaze turning to Zhao Yufei, slightly seeking an answer.

Zhao Yufei's clear eyes turned away, avoiding his gaze, seemingly a bit guilty, and she also stepped forward to hand over her invitation letter.

The seven of them smoothly entered the summit location.

Zhao Feng was still puzzled and repeatedly asked Zhao Yufei. He felt that his invitation letter was unusual.

Zhao Yufei smiled playfully: "To know the answer, you have to become the 'Genius of the Summit' this time..."

Zhao Feng shook his head, no longer thinking about it.

This situation made Zhao Linlong's brows slightly furrow, his gaze turning cold, and he glanced at Zhao Feng, slightly warning him.

Zhao Feng also felt this hostility and warning but didn't take it to heart.

With his current strength, he wasn't afraid of Zhao Linlong.

The Zhao family members were quickly arranged in a pavilion, where maids served pastries and tea.

The pavilion where the Zhao family was located was closest to the center of the summit.

The three pavilions closest to the center of the summit represented the Zhao, Qiu, and Xin families.

Zhao Feng saw the Xin family members in the pavilion to the left, including Xin Fei and Xin Tong, who he had previously faced.

Among them, Xin Fei had made the fastest progress, his cultivation approaching the Fifth Level of Martial Dao; Xin Tong had naturally advanced to the Fifth Level.

Of course, compared to the progress of Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei, there was still a gap.

Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei's apparent cultivation had both reached the Fifth Level of Martial Dao, and they were among the youngest in the field.

"The Xin family's most outstanding genius is 'Xin Wuheng,' the leader of the four geniuses. At the last summit, the other major geniuses couldn't last ten moves against him."

Zhao Qin whispered.

Following her direction, Zhao Feng and the others' gazes focused on a plain-looking young man in a green robe.

The young man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, had an ordinary appearance, his eyes slightly closed, seemingly oblivious to the outside world.

He was "Xin Wuheng," his cultivation appearing to be at the peak of the Fifth Level of Martial Dao.

Facing Xin Wuheng, even the aloof Zhao Linlong showed a hint of seriousness.

When Zhao Feng's left eye met Xin Wuheng, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath: This person is not simple...

Facing Zhao Linlong, Zhao Feng felt no pressure.

But seeing this person, he had to take him seriously.

Zhao Feng's left eye often saw things others couldn't...

As if sensing something, Xin Wuheng in the opposite pavilion suddenly opened his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, Zhao Feng saw a pair of deep, pond-like eyes, which, like the finishing touch, made his originally ordinary face appear extraordinary and noble.

"Xin Wuheng!"

Zhao Linlong softly uttered three words, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, staring straight ahead.

However, unexpectedly,

Xin Wuheng did not look at this first genius of the Zhao family.

His gaze fell on Zhao Feng.

"Good, this summit, I finally have an opponent who interests me."

Xin Wuheng nodded slightly.

After speaking, he closed his eyes again, not giving Zhao Linlong and the others another glance.

What?

Coldness spread in Zhao Linlong's eyes, and he took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.

Looking at the entire Yuyang City, among the young generation of the three major families, no one dared to ignore him like this.

But this person was Xin Wuheng, and he couldn't react.

Because at the last Genius Summit, Xin Wuheng defeated him in ten moves.

"Who is this guy? He actually caught Xin Wuheng's attention?"

Many people were surprised and looked at Zhao Feng.

Among them were Xin Fei and Xin Tong, whom he had previously faced.

Xin Fei's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and Xin Tong looked somewhat expectant: "This kid has really improved rapidly, his cultivation has also reached the Fifth Level."

Zhao Feng being noticed by Xin Wuheng made Zhao Linlong very unhappy, secretly harboring resentment.

From Xin Wuheng's attitude, it was clear that he valued Zhao Feng more, seemingly not taking the first genius of the Zhao family seriously.

"Xin Wuheng... before long, you will know who your true opponent is."

Zhao Linlong sneered to himself.

As night fell, more and more people gathered at the summit.

At the summit, there were many pavilions, all occupied by invited geniuses or some elder VIPs.

In the entire Yuyang City, about forty to fifty young talents were invited, and the rest numbered over a hundred.

At this moment, a commotion arose at the summit.

"Look! Qiu Mengyu is here!"

"The first beauty of Yuyang!"

People exclaimed in surprise, then the noise turned to silence.

In the hazy night, a graceful young woman in a green robe walked on a red carpet, her waterfall-like hair dancing in the wind, her exquisitely beautiful face, like a finely carved porcelain, was even more ethereal and lively with the floating green hair, like a fairy in a dream.

Qiu Mengyu was about seventeen or eighteen years old, her demeanor elegant, her smile like a blooming flower, every movement exuding infinite charm, unlike the youthful innocence of Zhao Yufei and Zhao Qin.

"Truly the first beauty of Yuyang, this trip is not in vain."

"You mustn't forget, Qiu Mengyu is also one of the four geniuses of Yuyang."

Many young geniuses were momentarily lost in admiration.

Looking at the entire summit, the only girl who could be compared to Qiu Mengyu was Zhao Yufei.

Zhao Yufei was younger, about fourteen or fifteen years old, her beauty pure and natural, thus not as dazzling as Qiu Mengyu.

Under the focused gazes, the first beauty of Yuyang stepped onto the summit, leading nearly ten Qiu family geniuses to the pavilion opposite the Zhao family.

"Today, Mengyu is honored to host the Genius Summit, inviting young talents from all over the thousand-mile radius of Yuyang City..."

Qiu Mengyu's voice, like a babbling brook, made people feel dazed, captivated by her stunning beauty and voice.

Indeed, she was very beautiful!

Zhao Feng couldn't help but take a few more looks at Qiu Mengyu, and Zhao Yufei beside him, her delicate nose slightly wrinkled, let out a low hum.

In the pavilion of the Qiu family, besides Qiu Mengyu, there was also a graceful young man in a white robe, exceptionally handsome, his cultivation reaching the peak of the Fifth Level of Martial Dao.

"That young man is named 'Qiu Changyi.' In the Qiu family, he is on par with Qiu Mengyu and is also one of the four geniuses."

Zhao Qin whispered.

"So, the Qiu family has two people among the four geniuses?"

Zhao Feng was somewhat surprised.

"Indeed, the Qiu family has strong influence in Yuyang City and is not on good terms with our Zhao family, often in conflict."

Zhao Feng added.

At this moment, the four geniuses of Yuyang City all appeared: Zhao Linlong, Xin Wuheng, Qiu Mengyu, and Qiu Changyi.
