Chapter 223 The fighting spirit of genius, perfect synchronization!
The atmosphere in the ward was awkward for a moment.
No one spoke first.
Yu Cang was completely confused by Duan Feng's expression. And Duan Feng... he didn't dare to say anything.
He has realized that there is something wrong with his emotions. It would be fine if he kept it in, at least he could maintain his coolness on the surface, but once he opened his mouth, the whole thing would definitely collapse.
So he could only remain still, silently calming his emotions in his heart, and hoping that Yu Cang would speak later and give him some time.
Although he thought so, his emotions had reached this point, how could he easily control them? The more he tried to force himself to calm down, the more wrong his emotions became.
So, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the ward gradually became weird.
On the ground, Qi'er was holding the little doll, looking at Yu Cang and then at Duan Feng.
So weird.
She clearly felt the grievance and unwillingness in Duan Feng's heart.
Really.
Qi'er curled his lips.
You are an adult, why are you still crying?
Shame on you!
Lian Qi'er is no longer like this!
Thinking of this, Qi'er became bored, so he walked to the side with the doll in his arms, found a chair, and sat down on it with a small jump.
And outside the door.
The Duan family members were so anxious that they were sweating profusely.
Duan Ao nervously pressed himself against the door, listening to the noises coming from inside, feeling uneasy.
It’s broken...why is there still no sound?
This person has bad intentions!
Logically speaking, if this private meeting had gone normally, they should have started chatting by now.
My hearing must be very good. If there was any chatting inside, I should not be able to hear it.
After Yu Cang entered, he did not sense any soul energy fluctuations, so it was definitely not some soul card with sound insulation effect that was used... But if that was the case, why was the air so quiet?
Duan Ao leaned against the door and swallowed quietly.
It's no wonder he eavesdropped on other people's conversations. Given Feng'er's current mental state, he was worried that some friction might break out accidentally, so he had to keep an eye on him all the time and take action immediately if anything went wrong to avoid making a big mistake.
Just like the current situation... it's very dangerous!
There had been no movement for such a long time that Duan Ao could already imagine the scene inside the door.
The air pressure inside the door must be extremely low now. The two geniuses are unwilling to submit to each other. Yu Cang relies on the unprecedented momentum of having just defeated Duan Feng. He wants to suppress Duan Feng as soon as he enters the door. Although Duan Feng was defeated and injured, he is not willing to be outdone. He fights back with the arrogance in his heart and refuses to give in at all!
I guess at this moment the room is already filled with the powerful aura of Yu Cang and Feng'er, and both sides are on the verge of a fight. If they are not careful, the second battle will probably break out!
"It's not good..." Duan Ao frowned, feeling as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Although he stood on Feng'er's side, he could also see that based on Yu Cang's performance that day, Feng'er was definitely no match for him now.
He couldn't win before, and now he has been lying in bed all night. His energy and spirit are not at their peak, so he is definitely even more unable to win.
But now we are in the hospital, and there is no duel shield. If Yu Cang does not hold back, Feng'er's safety may be seriously threatened... Even if Yu Cang is injured, it will be difficult to deal with. There are people from the Duan family everywhere here. How can Yu Cang explain to Ren Zheng if he is injured in this place?
Thinking of this, Duan Ao had quietly placed his hand on the card box, and focused all his attention on the ward. He was fully focused, waiting for anything unusual to happen so that he could break in and stop the conflict.
…
And at this moment, in the ward.
Duan Feng: (ˇ_ˇ)
Yu Cang: ( )
…
suddenly!
Duan Ao's ears twitched.
There seemed to be a strange noise coming from the ward?
He didn't recognize the sound at first, but he was sure that it was definitely not a conversation.
not good!
Duan Ao's face turned anxious, and he didn't care about anything else. His body took action before his brain could react. He took out a soul card from his palm and pushed the door open directly.
Bang!
"stop!"
He pushed the door open violently, and at that moment, a realization suddenly occurred to his mind.
Why does that sound... so much like sobbing?
You shouldn't cry out loud in such an occasion.
Could it be that Yu Cang was frightened to tears by Feng'er's aura?
Haha, if that's the case then it really...
Duan Ao's body suddenly froze.
The scene inside the ward came into view, but it seemed different from what he had imagined.
Yu Cang stood in front of the window. He didn't cry out of fear or show a tense attitude as he had imagined. Instead, he had a wooden face and looked quite embarrassed.
And the source of that sobbing sound...
Duan Ao slowly turned his gaze towards Duan Feng.
Duan Feng turned his head as if nothing had happened and looked out the window, as if admiring the clouds in the sky.
Duan Ao was stunned.
Just now, Feng'er's eyes... No way.
I know Feng'er well, and he's not the type to cry out loud in such an occasion. But I definitely heard sobbing, it couldn't be faked.
He looked to the side with some confusion, at the little girl that Yu Cang brought in, only to find that she was holding a summoned beast of the Creation Clan. Her expression looked a little strange, but the voice definitely did not come from her.
Who could that be?
After hesitating, Duan Ao turned his gaze back to Duan Feng.
It can’t be... I’d better ask first.
"Um, Feng'er..."
"Ah!" Duan Feng's body visibly stiffened, and then he immediately turned around and held Yu Cang's hand. "Yu Cang and I hit it off right away. It's been a long time since we met. Duan Ao, I haven't made a friend like this in a long time. I can't control my emotions. You can understand, right?"
Duan Ao blinked and remained silent for a moment.
"I see!"
He nodded, and from his expression, he seemed to believe it completely.
"That's good, that's good... Feng'er, you really scared me just now." Duan Ao smiled, "Well, I won't interrupt your chat, I'll be leaving first."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and left the ward.
It turned out that he was crying with joy because he had met a close friend... He didn't understand, but he had heard that geniuses often had such feelings, so it should be normal.
Feng'er really needs a friend.
After all, he also knew that his elder brother had been very strict with Feng'er since he was a child, which resulted in Feng'er having few real friends. He felt very upset just seeing that... The purpose of their coming this time was to act out a "no fighting, no acquaintance" drama, and now that the fake play has become real, he is naturally very happy.
"What are you looking at?" Duan Ao glared at the Duan family members behind him, "Alright, it's nothing else. Go buy Feng'er some food. Don't crowd in here."
The Duan family members looked at each other in confusion.
Um?
He wouldn't really believe it... Never mind, let's not dwell on it.
Otherwise, who knows whether Duan Ao would regard this as something that should not be known to outsiders and torture them later.
After everyone left, Duan Ao quietly closed the door.
"Duan Ao, stay away and don't eavesdrop at the door."
"Okay, okay, you guys chat."
Duan Ao's voice gradually faded away outside the door, and from what he sensed, there was indeed no one standing outside the door.
Only then did Duan Feng breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, my second uncle is easy to fool.
It would be fine to make a fool of myself in front of Yu Cang, but I am now going against my family, and I absolutely cannot let Duan Ao and the others see me like this!
Then I would really become a joke.
Bang!
Yu Cang shook off Duan Feng's hand.
"Alright." Yu Cang shook his head. "If you have any questions, tell me now and I'll do my best to answer them."
Although the scene just now was very funny, it was a good thing that Duan Feng could communicate normally.
Hearing this, Duan Feng snorted coldly and said to Yu Cang through gritted teeth: "You can't take Aqiu away, he is my friend!"
"No one is competing with you." Yu Cang waved his hand, "You pushed it away yourself, don't blame me."
“…”
"Aqiu told me that he wanted to study with me for a while, and I agreed."
"I haven't agreed yet!" Duan Feng glared.
"Really?" Yu Cang thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Duan Feng, do you consider Aqiu a friend, or... just a companion soul, a part of your talent?"
"Of course we're friends!"
"Since we're friends, you should have your own ideas and things to do." Yu Cang said calmly, "Otherwise, you might as well just imprison Aqiu in your consciousness space."
“…”
Duan Feng's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, all that came out was a sigh.
Aqiu's words kept flashing through his mind, and the scenes of his time with Aqiu kept coming back to him. He probably realized that what Yu Cang said was right.
He lowered his head and was silent for a moment. When he raised his head again, his expression had returned to normal, becoming the somewhat inhuman look he had before.
"What can you give Ah Qiu?"
“I created a whole new method of resonance.”
Yu Cang's words made Duan Feng unable to hold back. His eyes widened unconsciously and his expression almost broke again.
"What?"
"This resonance method is called Starry Sky Vision. It is superior to the previous Zhoutian Resonance Method, but it also requires higher qualifications and proficiency. In Aqiu's current state, he can only enter the Starry Sky Vision in the ancient capital, otherwise there is a risk of dissipation."
“…” Duan Feng fell silent.
If what Yu Cang said was true... then there was really nothing he could do. The new resonance method would probably be an irresistible temptation for any card maker. It was reasonable for Aqiu to want to learn it here.
He was originally thinking about what Yu Cang could give to Aqiu. At worst, he would take the initiative to tell his family after he returned.
It had been a long time since I had asked my family for anything, but as long as I asked, Duan Zhang would definitely not refuse my request.
But he really couldn't give her the new resonance method.
No wonder he received the Flame Emperor Medal… Maybe it was because of this?
Thinking of this, Duan Feng sighed and could only accept this reality.
"Then...if I want to see Aqiu somewhere other than the ancient capital, what should I do? Do I have to come to the ancient capital?"
"That's not necessary." Yu Cang pulled out a gray soul card from his arms and handed it to Duan Feng. "This is the 'Transmigration Channel', which connects to the Starry Sky Vision. In the Starry Sky Vision, there is no conventional concept of distance. You and Aqiu are the same person, sharing the same destiny star. So no matter where you are in the future, as long as you are still under the same starry sky, you can summon Aqiu to your side when you open the Transmigration Channel."
Duan Feng took this strange soul card and his eyes shook slightly.
"Is that so..."
"But there's one thing you need to be aware of," Yu Cang added. "If you bring Aqiu to the human world from somewhere other than Ancient Capital University, then if Aqiu wants to return to the Starry Sky Vision Zone again, you'll need to return to Ancient Capital University. Starry Sky Vision Zones in other places are more dangerous, and Aqiu can easily get lost if he goes deep alone. You need to be aware of this."
"I understand." Duan Feng took a deep breath.
At this moment, an idea came to his mind - why not just go back to the imperial capital directly, and then use the passage to the other world to summon Aqiu back, and he would never come to the ancient capital again from then on.
But... he didn't want to do that.
Yu Cang was right. Aqiu was his friend, not an accessory. Otherwise, he could have chosen to refine him long ago, right?
You should respect the choices made by your friends.
And didn’t Aqiu also say that when he truly understands himself, Aqiu will come back to him again?
Then... there is nothing more to say. Not being able to see Aqiu only means that I am not strong enough and not firm enough. I can't blame others.
Just wait, one day, he will make Aqiu return to his side willingly!
Duan Feng's eyes became firm. He put away the gray passage to the other world and raised his head.
"Yu Cang, take good care of Aqiu for me."
"I can only guarantee that he will receive the same treatment as other students from the ancient capital in the Starry Sky Vision Area."
"Enough." Duan Feng nodded.
After a moment of silence, he spoke again:
"Yu Cang...you are very strong. Duan Zhang once told me that I have long been invincible among my peers, and you are the first one who can defeat me."
"Really?" Yu Cang smiled. "Don't be too confident. The world is big."
Even though Yu Cang's deck is now very powerful, he cannot guarantee that he will be invincible among his peers.
Apart from anything else, after Wang Hui came back from Tiandao, he told himself a lot about the "evil spirits" over there. He felt that it would be difficult for him to defeat some of them now.
All I can say is that it’s too early to talk about invincibility.
"No need to be modest." Duan Feng didn't care. "But remember, I won't always lose to you—you also want to participate in the college league, right?"
"Um."
"Then we'll have another fight!" Duan Feng's face was filled with fighting spirit. "In half a year, I will fight you in my strongest form—and I hope you will too."
"I'll try my best." Yu Cang smiled.
Duan Feng is quite powerful. If he works hard for half a year, we can indeed look forward to fighting with him.
After all, level five to level six is a hurdle. I can reach level five from level three in such a short time, but even if I equip myself with [Meditation] at all times, it will be difficult to make another breakthrough within half a year.
Cultivation is always becoming more and more difficult.
When the time comes, it will be a level five game against a level five game, and if you want to win, you must take it seriously.
But to be honest, it is very difficult for Duan Feng to make any further progress.
After all, the Light and Dark Contradictory Dragon is already at the epic limit, and when combined with Aqiu to use Chaos Convection, it even has the possibility of damaging the legendary. It can basically be said that it has reached the ceiling at this level.
At this point, it is very difficult to improve further.
But since Duan Feng is so confident, Yu Cang is willing to look forward to it.
"You'd better be motivated. Otherwise, it might be you who will be sitting on the hospital bed." A smile slowly appeared on Duan Feng's face.
That’s great.
This was the first person he met who was not affected by his background, did not care about his talents, and could communicate normally with him.
In fact, he was the first guy that he couldn't beat.
I wish I had met him earlier.
…
Yu Cang left the ward.
To be honest, he was very surprised that Duan Feng was such a person.
Fortunately, it’s not annoying.
After walking along the corridor for a while, a figure appeared in front of him, leaning against the wall, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Yu Cang." Duan Ao looked at him with a smile, "As expected of a recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal, you are full of vigor and spirit."
"It was just a fluke."
"No, no, there are very few people on the entire Blue Planet who can be recognized by a myth."
"...Just don't forget what you promised me."
"Ah, of course we remember!" Duan Ao's smile widened. "The Heavenly Gate is in the Imperial Capital. We're waiting for you to find the time. You can go in and gain insights anytime... However, we have one condition."
"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows, "You didn't mention any other conditions before."
"Don't worry, it's not excessive, and you won't have to pay anything." Duan Ao explained, "The condition is - we hope to fulfill this promise after the National College League."
Yu Cang was stunned, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Okay, of course there is no problem."
Duan Ao's condition sounds a bit abrupt, but if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising.
The National College League, probably in the eyes of the Duan family, is a stage belonging to Duan Feng, and the winner can only be Duan Feng.
Now that he has shown the strength to defeat Duan Feng, if Yu Cang enters the Tianmen Secret Realm and gains some insights, Duan Feng will probably be even more difficult to defeat.
It was reasonable to push the redemption time to after the league, so Yu Cang didn't say anything.
Anyway, the secret place is there and it won’t run away.
Yu Cang agreed and was about to turn and leave when Duan Ao suddenly spoke up, "By the way... Yu Cang, that vortex-shaped soul card you used yesterday... is it a new summoning method?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I don't think I've heard of it before... Did you create it yourself?"
"Yes."
"Heroes truly emerge from youth." Duan Ao's eyes narrowed. "I wonder if it's possible for our Duan family to learn this new summoning method?"
"Sorry, it's not complete yet. Once it's complete, it will be made public."
"Ah...that's such a pity."
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Of course—take care."
As he watched Yu Cang leave, the smile on Duan Ao's face gradually faded.
An unknown summoning method... Feng'er will lose, probably because of this.
It’s a pity that Yu Cang doesn’t seem to have any intention of sharing - this is normal. No matter who finds this kind of thing, they will definitely reap all the benefits first, and then it will be the turn of others.
As for what Yu Cang said about making it public after it is perfected... haha, he is just kidding the kids. If he doesn't monopolize such an achievement, what's wrong with his brain?
Thinking of this, he took out his personal terminal and dialed.
"Hey, brother, it's exactly as you guessed."
…
Imperial capital.
Duan Zhang's expression shifted slightly, and a look of contemplation flashed across his eyes.
The new summoning method...is it real?
That……
On the other end of the personal terminal, Duan Ao continued:
"Yu Cang has no intention of cooperating to develop this summoning method. Big brother, then we..."
"No rush—what's the name of this summoning method?"
"Um... I'll go back and ask..."
"...Never mind. I'll come back after I finish things over there."
"Okay, big brother."
drop.
Hang up the terminal.
Duan Zhang raised his head and looked at the ceiling.
A summoning method whose name is unknown... It seems that this is what supports Yu Cang in obtaining the Flame Emperor Medal, and he is indeed qualified.
Generally speaking, the Yan State will vigorously publicize the recipients of the Yan Emperor Medal, wishing that everyone in the Yan State would know the recipient's name and what he or she has done.
And since Yu Cang is so low-key this time - there is only one possibility, that is, Yu Cang himself does not want to do this, and Yan Country will naturally respect it.
As long as Yan Country publicizes it, Yu Cang will immediately gain a terrifying influence, and then whatever he does will go smoothly. But now Yu Cang is so low-key... There is a high probability that Yu Cang wants to first lay out this summoning method and profit from it through monopoly.
Thinking of this, Duan Zhang's expression changed slightly.
He remembered that some time ago, the number of wild crystals on the market suddenly decreased, even to the point of being out of stock. He had originally thought that this would increase the market price of other related materials, and had already been making relevant preparations, but in the end the transition was very smooth, with only a few setbacks.
This result must be the result of the state’s intervention.
It can get the country to cooperate in stabilizing prices... The Flame Emperor Medal should be able to do it.
So does this wild crystal have anything to do with this summoning method?
Duan Zhang frowned slightly, but couldn't figure out the relationship for a moment.
After thinking for a moment, Duan Zhang picked up his personal terminal:
"Have someone start buying up Wild Crystals... I know the price is high right now, so don't worry about the loss; just buy them directly. Also, cancel our Wild Crystal Hunting Team and have them hunt Wild Beasts under a different name. Don't sell the Wild Crystals they obtain; I'll arrange for a warehouse to store them."
After the conversation ends, there is another conversation.
"Third brother, regarding Yu Cang, does your think tank have a plan?"
"No? Don't do it for now. Next, build momentum for Yu Cang."
"Yes, hold him high... I don't need to tell you the rest, right?"
"Go ahead and do it."
After hanging up the terminal, a smile appeared on Duan Zhang's face.
A recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal who is still growing... is too worthy of being praised to death.
Let’s take a look at what your attitude will be when facing the gossips of the public, Yu Cang?
…
"What?" Yu Cang was stunned. "You said the data has been sorted out?"
"Yes." Lin Yunqing pushed up his glasses. "Below the epic level, the star system has been fully designed and is sufficient to support the operation of Synchro Summoning."
"That's great." Yu Cang smiled. "Do you have any relevant papers?"
"It's all done."
"Then get ready—I'm going to reveal this summoning method directly."
