Shen Xiaohong held three invitations from the Demon-Slaying Sect. The invitations stated that the Demon-Slaying Sect would be holding a friendly match with the Tian Shu Sect in a few days, and the three of them were invited to attend.
Feng Yushang exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master, you just defeated Yuwen Xing, how come their information network is so advanced?"
“That’s normal, Miss Feng. You don’t know this, but the Xuan Yan Martial Ranking has people watching it all day long. As soon as there’s any movement, even if it’s just a change in the hundredth place, those people will immediately send the news back to their respective forces.”
Shen Xiaohong explained with a smile, "Didn't we just see some martial artists dressed in linen clothes around the Martial Ranking? They are the people specifically responsible for keeping watch."
"However, the Demon-Slaying Sect is quite reasonable, as they sent three invitations," Shen Xiaohong remarked. "If there had only been one, I certainly wouldn't have left Brother Lin and Miss Feng behind to attend the ceremony at the Demon-Slaying Sect alone."
Although they hadn't known each other for long, Shen Xiaohong had already come to regard them as his companions.
Firstly, because he was simple-minded and felt that Lin Feng and Feng Yushang were not malicious people; secondly, because of a hidden urge of sympathy for each other.
He was not from the Xuan Yan Star Realm. No matter how strong his cultivation was or how respected he was, he always felt uneasy living in the Xuan Yan Star Realm. Just when he was extremely uneasy, Lin Feng and Feng Yushang, two martial artists from outside the Xuan Yan Star Realm, appeared. This gave him a sense of sympathy and made him feel more in sync with them.
"I've heard that the Holy Son of the Tian Shu Sect, who's been gaining momentum lately, is quite interesting. I haven't met him yet, so I'll take this opportunity to go and see him."
Shen Xiaohong enjoys making friends and challenging strong opponents.
Since the Heavenly Pivot Sect has a protagonist destined for heaven, Lin Feng naturally wants to go and see for himself.
He's now considering whether or not to challenge Shangguan Tingye.
After defeating Yuwen Xing, the system rewarded him with 3,000 Destiny Points. This was only after he suffered a loss, yet he received such a large reward, demonstrating that Li Jingxiao, the protagonist of Destiny, is more valuable than Xiao Han and Luo Ning.
As for why he didn't challenge him directly... it was just Lin Feng's personal wicked sense of humor. Compared to pinning Li Jingxiao down and beating him up, he preferred to play with his mentality first before striking swiftly and killing him.
Li Jingxiao's story is quite tragic. From the moment his parents discovered he possessed the Azure Profound Sacred Body, he was constantly used as a test subject for research. Later, when the righteous Xuan Yan Emperor intervened to wipe out the demonic sect led by his parents, Li Jingxiao inexplicably developed a hatred for him. Not only that, Li Jingxiao also recognized his enemy as his father and regarded Tian Yusheng, who intended to continue the experiments, as his benefactor...
It was both tragic and stupid.
Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh more as he looked at it.
But he wouldn't show Li Jingxiao any mercy just because of his miserable state.
Before you knew it, it was time for the friendly exchange match between Tian Shu Sect and Dang Mo Sect to begin.
The Demon-Slaying Sect is located in the northern part of the Xuan Yan Star Realm, adjacent to the Poison Mist Forest. The main way its disciples cultivate is to enter the Poison Mist Forest to hunt dangerous spirit beasts. It can be said that the Demon-Slaying Sect has contributed a lot to the stability of the surrounding area. Otherwise, the surrounding mortal villages would probably have been slaughtered by poisonous spirit beasts long ago.
Amidst a gray-black miasma, gray-black buildings stretched endlessly, towering into the clouds—this was the Demon-Slaying Sect.
At this moment, a fighting arena was set up in the vast training ground of the Demon-Slaying Sect. The surrounding area was filled with guests invited by them and the Heavenly Pivot Sect. Before Lin Feng and his two companions actually arrived at the Demon-Slaying Sect, the Heavenly Pivot Sect had also sent an invitation, only a quarter of an hour later than the Demon-Slaying Sect.
Upon their arrival, the elder who recognized Shen Xiaohong immediately stepped forward with a fawning smile: "Distinguished guests, our sect leader has specially arranged private seats for you three. This way, please."
"Please thank Master Wang for his kindness on my behalf."
Shen Xiaohong was very polite and even took out two round pills, one for the elder and the other for the sect leader.
"Thank you so much, young master! You're too kind!"
For a moment, the elder became even more obsequious, even bowing his waist, and personally led them to their seats, the closest seats to the arena. Looking across the arena, there were many disciples of the Tian Shu Sect. The black-robed elder sat in the head seat, with Li Jingxiao and Shangguan Tingye on either side. This was also the first time Lin Feng had seen them.
On the left and right sides were other prominent martial artists and forces invited by the Demon Suppression Sect and the Heavenly Pivot Sect. They were mostly huddled together, making the three of them seem quite out of place. However, since everyone present knew Shen Xiaohong's identity, no one raised any objections or complaints.
"Brother Xiao, that's Lin Feng."
Li Jingxiao looked at Lin Feng.
Truly, he is a gentleman as refined as jade, unparalleled in the world.
Lin Feng simply sat there, yet his entire body exuded an aura no weaker than that of Shen Xiaohong.
That's really impressive.
but……
Li Jingxiao's expression was indifferent.
He doesn't care who's on the other side; anyone who tries to stop him and cause trouble for Emperor Xuan Yan will not be let off the hook!
"Click-clack—"
"Brother Xiao, your chair..."
Shangguan Tingye's lips twitched.
Li Jingxiao looked down and, sure enough, saw cracks appearing on the stool beneath him.
"What's going on? I feel like I've been having a lot of bad luck lately."
He scratched his head and said helplessly.
"You two, stop chatting. I just observed him carefully, and he is indeed 19 years old. Moreover, his aura is profound and unfathomable. The woman sitting next to Lin Feng also gave me the same feeling. Neither of them are simple."
Elder Qian frowned and gave a reminder.
"Young Master Shen Xiaohong is very warlike. If you challenge Lin Feng and the girl beside him in public, he should not be displeased. But remember, do not overestimate yourselves and challenge him directly."
"Thank you for your guidance, Elder Qian."
Li Jingxiao nodded seriously.
Before long, the exchange competition officially began.
Within the Tian Shu Sect camp, Li Jingxiao and Shangguan Tingye were undoubtedly the main fighting force. Below them were a group of disciples at the Divine Spirit Realm. The battles between these disciples were not worth watching, and the other spectators also showed little interest. Clearly, like Lin Feng and his two companions, they wanted to see a battle between experts at the Divine Tribulation Realm.
As for the Demon-Slaying Sect, the leading senior brother is a young man named Wang Ting, who is said to be the current sect leader's biological son. He is ranked fifteenth on the Xuan Yan Martial Ranking, which is considered to be on the list and not much weaker than Li Jingxiao. After all, Wang Ting's ranking was achieved two years ago, and his cultivation must have increased in the past two years.
However, compared to the Tian Shu Sect, the Dang Mo Sect only has Wang Ting, a young expert at the Divine Tribulation Realm, so it is not at an overall advantage.
In the afternoon, the battle between ordinary disciples ended, with Tian Shu Sect narrowly defeating Dang Mo Sect.
Dressed in black, the gaunt-faced Sect Leader Wang looked rather unwell.
"Let's continue."
He waved his hand and said calmly.
No sooner had the words left his mouth than Wang Ting and Li Jingxiao appeared on the arena at the same time.
