Chapter 1970: End of the Pathfinder Day
Pei Dong Lai looked at Lin Feng icily. The Imperial Ranking List gave them power in the Holy City. Lin Feng was right. It was a symbol.
Of course, he couldn’t put Lin Feng’s name at the bottom of the list. They needed a list, but cultivators didn’t need one.
“It’s impossible to say who won this battle. However, Lin Feng is a medium-level emperor. And he was fair in his battle against Ji Chang. He’s third for now. They can fight again another day and we’ll determine the winner then,” said Ren Tian Xing at that moment.
Lin Feng’s name appeared in the third position.
The crowd looked at the Imperial Ranking List and everyone took a deep breath. Surprisingly, Lin Feng had risen up to the third position. Nobody had anticipated that. Now, he was as dazzling as Chu Chun Qiu!
Pei Dong Lai looked at the list and remained silent. Lin Feng looked at Yin Rui, noticing that Yin Rui looked angry. If he had a choice, he would have killed Lin Feng without hesitation.
Lin Feng looked at Yin Yue. Poor girl. Lin Feng turned around and looked at Pei Dong Qing icily. He wanted to kill him. Pei Dong Qing looked furious. Would Lin Feng dare kill him?
“You’re third in the Imperial Ranking List. The event is over.” said Pei Dong Lai calmly. Everybody was sad, they didn’t want the event to finish. Finally, it was over.
Lin Feng smiled indifferently, “Back then, you reached the top of the list when you had the strength of the top of the Huang Qi layer.”
Lin Feng slowly stood up. He looked at Pei Dong Lai, the members of the Yin Clan, and the crowd. He flitted over next to Meng Qing and said, “Let’s go back to university.”
Wu Shang looked at Lin Feng and Yin Yue, but in the end he followed Lin Feng. They went back to the university.
——————-
The top ten of the Imperial Ranking List was now Ying Cheng, Chu Chun Qiu, Lin Feng, Ji Chang, Dou Zhan Seng, Guili, Shi Yun Feng, Xue Shen Feng, Yin Gu Tian, and Wang Zhong.
There had been huge changes!
—
Yin Rui slowly rose up into the air and said to Yin Gu Tian, “Gu Tian, go back to the clan and practice cultivation.”
“I understand,” said Yin Gu Tian, nodding stiffly. The two young people of the Yin Clan couldn’t join the Great Imperial Palace. The event had been tragic for Yin Gu Tian.
“Brother Pei,” said Yin Rui to a strong cultivator of the Pei Clan with a smile.
The strong cultivator of the Pei Clan said, “Brother Yin Rui, I’ll personally come to the Yin Clan to propose a marriage alliance.”
The Pei Clan and the Yin Clan were big clans in the Holy City. They had to be polite and friendly.
“I see.” Yin Rui nodded and didn’t say much. Their two big clans were going to become allies. Lin Feng was extremely strong, but in the end, Yin Rui had to choose power over strength.
—
The most furious clan wasn’t the Pei Clan or the Yin Clan on this day, however. It was the Ji Clan.
Ji Chang, Champion. A year ago, everybody admired him, and then Lin Feng had ruined his Champion ceremony.
Now, a year had passed, and on the Pathfinder Day of the Imperial Ranking List, Ji Chang had lost three times.
He had lost against Ying Cheng, which didn’t matter because Ying Cheng was extremely strong. But then he had lost against Chu Chun Qiu and Lin Feng. How humiliating!
However, the Ji Clan had no choice but to admit that Chu Chun Qiu and Lin Feng were extremely strong, especially Lin Feng. He only had the strength of a medium-level emperor, but he was already such an incredible cultivator. And now they could only wait for Ji Chang to recover from having used the mysterious technique.
I hope that Ji Chang won’t give up, sighed the leader of the Ji Clan. Ji Chang could only rely on his own self now.
—
The crowd started dispersing. Maybe that all those geniuses would be at the top of the Region of the Dark Night someday.
Of course, nobody could anticipate and predict the future.
Chu Chun Qiu and Lin Feng were now famous in the Holy City, like Ying Cheng and Ji Chang. Many powerful clans knew their names now, especially since they had defeated Ji Chang the Champion.
Chu Chun Qiu and Lin Feng had the potential to become Champions, if they didn’t die.
—
Everybody went back to their clanholds. The Yin Clan, the Pei Clan, and the Ji Clan tried to think of ways to get rid of Lin Feng. They all hated him, especially the Ji Clan.
In a palace in the Ji Clan, many people looked glum.
“Tell me what you think,” the leader of the Ji Clan asked them.
“Lin Feng had that guy blind Wuyou. He caused trouble in our clan. He killed Ji Jiang, and now he beat Ji Chang. He must die!” said a strong cultivator slowly. Everybody nodded agreement.
The Ji Clan had many enemies, but usually they didn’t care about them too much. Even though Lin Feng was just one person, he was very talented and the Ji Clan couldn’t forget about him. The leader of the Ji Clan was also convinced that Lin Feng would pose a threat to them sooner or later.
“Even though we don’t know where he’s from, we know he doesn’t have a powerful background. He is backed up by some clans in the Vast Celestial Ancient City, we’ll have to be careful of them. But our biggest problem is Champion University.”
“I have a few suggestions,” spoke up a middle-aged man. Many people looked at him.
“Tell us,” ordered the leader of the Ji Clan.
“Lin Feng’s existence isn’t a problem to us. It’s even a good thing for Ji Chang. Lin Feng is talented, he will continue rising. Ji Chang will feel even more determined and motivated. He is a Champion, he is very motivated and talented,” began that person slowly. The leader of the Ji Clan and the others nodded. Ji Chang was definitely very determined, Champions were always determined. He wasn’t as talented as Lin Feng, but he was determined and nothing was impossible.
“Good. However, we can always oppress him when we have opportunities. Just don’t kill him, that way Champion University won’t be able to say anything. We’ll see how Lin Feng will react,” said the leader of the Ji Clan. Everybody nodded consent. If Lin Feng was constantly oppressed, he wouldn’t be able to rise and Ji Chang might manage to surpass him again at some point!
