Deng Cheng understood that this was a good opportunity.
A chance to become famous among the freshmen. Furthermore, there's a high chance of success.
Although Lin Feng's fighting strength is strong and he's the most famous, he still hasn't refined a demon spirit. He's not invincible.
A Demon Spiritualist is above a Martialist. Among the same rank, a Martialist who has refined a demon spirit is invincible.
A powerful Demon Spiritualist even has the ability to challenge those of a higher rank.
Deng Cheng refined a 9th grade Flaming Tiger, which is famous for its powerful fire attacks. Its attack power is also one of the top amongst 9th grade.
In his view, if he were to undergo [Demon Transformation], his body's attributes would be greatly increased. Coupled with the innate ability of the Flaming Tiger, it's still unknown who would win.
"As long as he can defeat Lin Feng, anyone is fine!" Ye Ming said indifferently. He didn't seem to care.
"You should go first. You've refined an Earth ranking demon spirit. You have a higher chance of winning!"
Deng Cheng glanced at Ye Ming. After pondering for a moment, he gave up on the idea.
Although the rewards from defeating Lin Feng are great, he's still the president of a club.
Lin Feng has yet to refine a demon spirit. Even if he were to defeat Lin Feng and become famous among the freshmen, it's an unfair victory. It's not good for his reputation. Unless he doesn't undergo [Demon Transformation], it's a pure martial arts duel.
But if it's a pure martial arts duel, he's afraid that he'll be abused miserably.
"The rank of a demon spirit doesn't determine anything."
With regards to Deng Cheng's rejection, Ye Ming wasn't surprised. He had already guessed it, "Furthermore, we don't have to do it ourselves. We can just get our subordinates to do it!"
"Subordinates to do it?"
Deng Cheng finally understood what was going on.
Ye Ming didn't have to defeat Lin Feng, nor did he want to be in the limelight. He only wanted to test Lin Feng's strength.
His goal was naturally for the Throne Challenge the day after tomorrow!
Ye Ming's strength is very strong. With the strength of a 1st grade Martialist and the demon spirit he refined is ranked 194 on the Earth ranking, he has the qualifications to compete for the Throne!
There were a hundred seats in the Freshman Throne Challenge, but there was only one Throne, and the rewards were the most generous.
There wasn't much difference between the second place and the 100th place in terms of appearance!
The Sovereign Challenge was like the College Entrance Examination.
Everyone would only remember the name of the top scorer of the college entrance examination. As for role models, no one would pay special attention to them.
As for Lin Feng, he could beat up a Rank 1 martial artist when he was only a Rank 8 Physique Cultivator. Now that he was a Rank 1 martial artist, even if he had not refined a demon spirit, no one dared to underestimate him. Similarly, he had the qualifications to sit on the first throne.
As for why Ye Ming didn't make a move himself, it wasn't hard to guess. There were two main reasons.
The first was to avoid injury.
None of them were confident that they could beat Lin Feng. If they lost, not only would it affect their ranking in the Throne Challenge, it would also damage the society's reputation.
Secondly, compared to the Throne Challenge, joining the Hongyun Team was more important!
Lin Feng, Yunkai, and Dong Yunan, a talented Demon Spiritualist, a rare combat genius, and a healer. This was already the top configuration of the Glory Team.
In the eyes of many school leaders, the addition of Lin Feng and the other two had already foreshadowed the rise of Hongyun University in the Battle of Glory that would be held three years later.
The three of them seemed to have already locked the three main spots in the team.
The Battle of Glory was a team battle. Compared to individual combat strength, the tacit understanding between team members, the choice of demon spirit, and the combination of demon spirit techniques were more important.
In the future, if Lin Feng and the other two joined the Hongyu Team and became the main team members, the remaining two main team members would most likely have to consider Lin Feng and the other two's opinions.
Offending Lin Feng so easily wasn't a wise choice.
This was also the main reason why Ye Ming didn't make a move himself.
"How is it, do you have any objections?"
Ye Ming asked. After all, the stage was built by Deng Cheng. Every freshman had to go through a selection process. Without his consent, the plan couldn't be implemented.
"Of course, why would I have any objections?"
Deng Cheng nodded his head. Since he didn't have to make a move himself, he naturally didn't have any reason to refuse.
Actually, he also wanted to see the true strength of the college entrance exam's top scorer. If possible, he also wanted to fight for the number one throne.
As a Grade 1 Martial Artist, refining a Grade 9 demon spirit, he naturally had hopes of it!
After Deng Cheng agreed, Ye Ming didn't have any intention of continuing the small talk. After a few simple words, he bid farewell and left.
"Brother Deng, why did Ye Ming come over?"
After Ye Ming left, a youth came over and asked.
"Nothing, just a small matter!"
Looking at Ye Ming's disappearing figure, Deng Cheng's eyes slightly flickered. Towards Ye Ming, there was a trace of dread in his heart.
Whether it's background or strength, there's not much difference between the two of them. Even in terms of demon spirit rank, Ye Ming is stronger than him.
The two of them had the same goal, to rope in freshmen, establish their own forces, and join the Hongyun Team in the future.
From the conversation earlier, he realised that Ye Ming was more comprehensive than him. Ye Ming will definitely become his main opponent in Hongyun University.
At 9 PM, it became more lively. The freshmen were excited and didn't have any intention of resting.
There were still freshmen performing on the stage. With over seventeen thousand freshmen, even if it was only 1%, ten minutes per person was enough to perform for an entire day.
Not only the freshmen, but many older students also joined in. For the older students, they weren't willing to let go of the arduous classes, the difficult battles in the other world, and the rare good days to eat, drink, and play.
The older students gathered in twos and threes, eating barbecue, drinking wine, and chatting.
They also didn't chat with the freshmen, unless it was a cute and beautiful junior.
In a corner.
Zhang Yu looked at Lin Feng with an ugly expression. "That tall guy is Yunkai, and the one beside him is Lin Feng. Yi Xing was possessed by the Night Ghost. He glanced at him and even used his first Soul Skill, 'White Underworld,' but didn't see anything?
If I hadn't discovered the danger in advance and blocked his eyes, Yi Xing's eyes would have been blinded! "
Sitting next to Zhang Yu was a long-haired young man. His black hair reached his shoulders, and there was an ancient-looking longsword beside him. He frowned. "Zhang Yu, I heard that you were the one who instigated Yi Xing to use the Ghost Eyes. Do you know how important Yi Xing is to the Wu Clan? Not everyone can refine the Night Ghost. If he's really blind, the Wu Clan won't let you off easily. When that time comes, even the captain won't be able to save you!"
Zhang Yu's expression changed slightly, but he didn't deny it. His tone was bitter and regretful. "Vice-captain, you know about Yi Xing's demon spirit's innate ability. All these years, nothing happened to him. No one knew that this would happen!"
"That's right, Vice-captain. It's mainly because that Lin Feng is too strange. That red shadow, who knows what it is!" a young girl tried to persuade Mu Xingmu.
Mu Xingguang clearly knew that this was the truth, so he didn't blame Zhang Yu. He looked at Lin Feng. He had heard of this top scholar of the college entrance exam many times. He was indeed unusual for him to almost make Yi Xing go blind.
"Eh? Why is someone carrying a weapon?"
Just as Mu Xingguang was observing Lin Feng, the young girl who tried to persuade Mu Xingguang softly exclaimed. Mu Xingguang shifted his gaze and saw a muscular young man standing in the center of the stage. He was holding a giant war blade.
"Hello everyone, my name is He Shan. Today's welcoming party was very exciting, but in my opinion, it lacked some passion and passion."
Facing the surprised gazes of the crowd, the young man stretched out his right hand and pointed the war blade at the new students. "How can martial artists miss out on battles? I don't have many talents, but my strength is not bad. I'm a first-grade martial artist, and I refined an eighth-grade Xuan Iron Rhinoceros. Today, I want to challenge someone to liven things up!"
Challenge?
He Shan's words were out of everyone's expectations. No one would have thought that there would be a challenge in the welcoming party. However, it was indeed very interesting.
Although the performance was exciting, after two hours, it was a little boring. It wasn't as exciting as a battle!
"Is there anyone who wants to go on stage?
Or should I choose my own opponent? "
After He Shan finished speaking, his eyes swept across the new students. Finally, he pointed his war blade in a direction and laughed loudly. "Among the new students, there's one who has the most fame. I'll challenge him!"
