The Art of Chaotic Divinity

Chapter 664: Jiuli Divine Clan!

After the emperor of Tianbai returned to the imperial palace, the young talents of the Tianbai Empire who had been gathered in the arena finally erupted into thunderous cheers.

Ling Feng had become the great hero who overturned the empire's terrible fate!

"Haha! This is great, Big Brother! You're a general!"

Jiang Xiaofan was the first to rush onto the platform. The big guy picked Ling Feng up in one swift move and started running wildly around the stage as if he were a mad bull.

Following him, Yu Sixian, Ye Nanfeng, Gu Tengfeng, Lin Mochen, and the rest of the members from the East Court's sword team rushed up to surround Ling Feng, their eyes filled with genuine joy.

However, Li Bufan didn't join them. He stood quietly by the side, the corner of his mouth curving into a faint smile. This guy really is amazing. But one day, I'll surpass him! I will spend my whole life working toward that goal!

To make Ling Feng his target might be a daunting task, but only by setting such a lofty goal could he find endless motivation.

Mu Qianxue squinted her eyes and smiled gently while saying softly, "Big Brother Li, aren't you going to congratulate Big Brother Ling?"

"There's no need for congratulations between us."

Li Bufan held his sword close to his chest, casting a deep glance at Ling Feng before turning to Mu Qianxue and nodding slightly. "Junior Sister Mu, I'll take my leave first."

With that, he walked away without looking back.

In no time, only the two dazzling beauties of the East Court sword team were left among the crowd. Tuoba Yan, however, seemed uninterested in all the commotion. Her figure flickered as she slipped to the edge of the training grounds, silently observing the stage with a quiet gaze.

Seeing Ling Feng being tossed into the air by his friends, Tuoba Yan couldn't help but let out a chuckle, her smile like a blooming flower.

Yet, this enchanting moment went unnoticed by anyone else.

At some point, a man cloaked in red had approached Mu Qianxue's side. He was none other than Night Weiyang, who had returned from the Heisha Region with her.

"I thought that in the end, we'd still need your help."

With a little smile, Night Weiyang gazed straight ahead as though he was murmuring to himself.

"Senior Brother Weiyang, you think too much." Mu Qianxue bit her lip as she spoke softly while subconsciously stroking the little black cat in her arms.

"Is that so?"

Night Weiyang glanced at Mu Qianxue,and then at the black cat, Ye Yi, nestled in her arms, and said in a calm voice, "After all, as someone from the Jiuli Divine Clan, you are completely immune to the Mystical Yellow Flame."

Mu Qianxue's pupils suddenly contracted as she turned sharply toward Night Weiyang. "You... What else do you know?"

Night Weiyang shrugged slightly. "There's no need to hide your identity as part of the Jiuli Divine Clan. I guess your position within the clan must be rather high judging by how cautious you are."

Mu Qianxue clenched her fists in silence.

"It looks like my guess is right," Night Weiyang said as he smiled faintly. "Don't worry, I mean no harm. In fact, these eyes of mine can see things others cannot. You and I are not enemies."

"Who are you, really?" Mu Qianxue asked through gritted teeth.

"Me? I'm the same Night Weiyang," he laughed, and then added slowly, "Aren't we both now sky-tier students of Tianwei Academy?"

"You..." Mu Qianxue blinked, wanting to ask more but she realized Night Weiyang's figure had already disappeared.

In the distance, Night Weiyang watched Mu Qianxue searching the area, and then rubbed his right eye.

"Why does my right eye show me that our fates are intertwined? She's clearly fond of Ling Feng... How odd." He shook his head, chuckling wryly. "Ah, forget it. If I can't understand it, then I won't think about it. This eye has never been wrong before anyway."

...

"Ling Feng! Ling Feng!"

Amid the cheering crowd, Ling Feng was tossed into the air over and over. Being lifted and caught repeatedly seemed to be the only way the young talents of the empire could release their excitement.

Of course, even the geniuses in the Spiritual Element Realm who were watching from afar had gained a new understanding of Ling Feng's strength.

"This kid has grown much stronger since the last time I saw him."

Li Yunting narrowed his eyes. He had crossed paths with Ling Feng once at the Sea-Blue Abyss, and he could immediately recognize him now.

"He is indeed a formidable rival."

Beside Li Yunting stood a burly man, nodding. "The Five Courts' Sword Team Grand Competition is just around the corner. Although, our Central Court sword team has a direct pass to the semifinals which gives us several extra months for training. However, based on Ling Feng's current strength, we will still need to approach him with caution."

"Our winning will depend on Liu Feng," Li Yunting said with a faint smile. "Though he's the youngest among us, he too has the most potential. If he can refine his Flaming Sun Body to a certain level in the coming months, we may be able to resist the Mystical Yellow Flame."

"That level?" The burly man took a sharp breath. "It may be too soon for Liu Feng to reach that level."

"Monsters like him are often misunderstood by outsiders. Every true expert has immense willpower." Li Yunting's eyes gleamed. "And Liu Feng is exactly that kind of person."

"Mhmm. If Liu Feng manages to resist the Mystical Yellow Flame, the rest of us will have a much easier time."

Meanwhile, the expressions of the top geniuses above the Spiritual Element Realm from Zhenlong Academy, Wenyuan Academy, and Hailan Academy who could not step onto the stage turned serious.

"To have such strength at the Pulse Formation Realm is no small feat."

"However, the Pulse Formation Realm is just the Pulse Formation Realm. If we watch out for his Mystical Yellow Flame, he shouldn't be too difficult to handle."

"This year, the right to challenge the Royal Sword Team belongs to Zhenlong Academy!"

"..."

...

"Hahaha! What a kid! Being so young, and before even graduating from Tianwei Academy, you've already been awarded the rank of Commander of the Palace Guards, along with the title of General Weiyuan. Your future is limitless!"

At some point, Wen Tingguang had leaped down from the high platform and approached Ling Feng to offer his congratulations.

Wen Tingguang had always held his younger brother in high regard, but now he realized he had still underestimated him.

Ling Feng truly is an extraordinary monster!

"Brother Wen!" Ling Feng raised his hand, prompting the crowd to let him down.

"Brother Wen, the title of General Weiyuan is just an honorary position. Everyone knows that."

Ling Feng smiled, showing little interest in the position itself.

Still, the general's mansion and the wealth that came with it would certainly be useful.

"Congratulations! Little General Ling!"

After seeing Wen Tingguang greet Ling Feng, the civil and military officials of the Tianbai Empire one by one stepped forward to congratulate Ling Feng. Although the title of General Weiyuan was honorary, it still signified the emperor's favor.

Ling Feng was still a student at Tianwei Academy, but once he graduated, he automatically held the rank of Commander of the Palace Guards. No matter which army he joined, he would become a general right away!

Even the sons of the chancellor or the grand commandant couldn't boast such treatment.

Ling Feng cupped his fists and bowed to everyone, but his eyes turned to Yue Yunlan who stood on the high platform.

Yue Yunlan was also looking at Ling Feng. Their eyes met, and everything was said without words.
