The atmosphere in the meeting room was a little gloomy.
No one would have thought that an ordinary preliminary round of the National University of Glory League would cause such a huge commotion.
This time, the geniuses of the foreign races were mobilized on such a large scale without any warning. It was beyond everyone's expectations.
Even they had heard of Hai Wei, Tian Qing, and Huang Ying, these three famous foreign race geniuses.
Although these foreign race geniuses were still very young compared to them, with their superb talent, they might become their opponents in less than ten years, or even stronger than them.
They definitely didn't enter Yuxi City for the Spiritual Power Pool and the elemental fruits.
One had to know that these three were the elites of the five major forces and had already been baptized by spiritual power. They had probably eaten more than one elemental fruit. More importantly, the forces these geniuses belonged to were very far away from Yuxi City.
Why did they spend so much time and travel so far to enter Yuxi City?
Was it really just a spur of the moment to hunt down a human genius?
If so, were they really not worried about a chaotic battle?
If the space collapsed, no matter how strong they were, they would not be able to escape death!
In extradimensional spaces, it wasn't impossible for foreign races to hunt down human geniuses, but such cases were extremely rare.
"Why is Hai Wei so interested in Lin Feng?"
A guardian looked at the projection and asked.
Everyone could tell that Hai Wei's real target was Lin Feng.
It wasn't just out of curiosity.
After going through so much trouble, even the Flower Eater Demon Spirit on the Rare Beast List had appeared.
Fighting in the Netherworld Flower Realm that even Grandmasters couldn't break, he obviously didn't want anyone to interfere.
Hai Wei wanted to kill Lin Feng.
According to Hai Wei, he had fought with Lin Feng in the Monster Spirit World. However, Lin Feng had managed to escape. Even if there was enmity between them, there was no need for him to come all the way to Imperial Jade City.
What kind of deep hatred did he have?
Or did he have some unknown motive?
If it was really to hunt down a human genius, Ye Qiu was recognized as the future Son of the Glory of Glory. Wasn't his talent more outstanding than Lin Feng's?
Why would Hai Wei rather let Ye Qiu go and challenge Lin Feng one-on-one?
What was even more inconceivable was that Lin Feng actually agreed!
Even though Linfeng knew that there was only a slim chance of survival, he still agreed.
Lin Feng and Ye Qiu had never crossed paths before.
Was he really that great?
His awareness was so high?
"I don't think it's that simple. Lin Feng's last words, 'protect his family', and 'officially start the game', clearly have a hidden meaning. Those are not the last words of a dying man."
A woman in a suit said.
"This kid is someone who can fool the entire nation and the Glory of Glory Alliance. He's very smart."
"I think so too. I've heard a lot of stories about Lin Feng. Everything he does seems absurd, but in the end, he always finds out that everything is beneficial to him. This guy doesn't do anything without benefits. He won't do anything without benefits, and he's too lazy to do it."
"Lin Feng's words and his performance show that he's extremely confident. Obviously, he has the confidence to win this battle. That's why he said those words. It seems like this Lin Feng definitely has some trump cards that we don't know about!"
Someone echoed.
However, no one knew what Lin Feng's trump card was.
Hai Wei had once hunted a Seventh Grade Skysoar Realm human in a 7-star Dimensional Door. Based on his initial estimation, there were at least ten of them.
This wasn't a secret.
Hai Wei's strength was at the peak of Sixth Grade. He had refined the Earth Ranking's Dragon Clan demon spirit, and he also had the Titan Bloodline, which was comparable to the Divine Rank cultivation technique, Dragonfish Transformation. Coupled with the cultivation of the invincible Dragon King, it wasn't difficult for him to challenge those of a higher level.
There were rumors that Hai Wei had even hunted Eighth Grade Grandmasters and Eighth Grade Demon Spiritualists, but it wasn't proven.
Lin Feng had just broken through to Sixth Grade. Whether it was Martial Dao strength, the rank of his demon spirit, or cultivation technique, he was crushed by Hai Wei. Furthermore, Lin Feng didn't have a bloodline talent. They didn't think that Lin Feng had any hope of winning.
"Dean Bu, do you know?"
Someone asked Bu Zheng.
As the Vice-Dean of Hongyun University, Bu Zheng definitely had a better understanding of Lin Feng.
Compared to other people's doubts, Bu Zheng was more confident in his heart. However, he still felt uneasy.
He knew about Lin Feng's trump card.
The Divine Rank cultivation technique, Dragonfish Transformation, and the King Rank cultivation technique, Bloodtear. These two powerful cultivation techniques were Lin Feng's trump cards!
Lin Feng had already displayed the effect of these two cultivation techniques before him.
However, could this trump card win against Hai Wei?
Bu Zheng wasn't confident in it.
However, since Lin Feng had agreed to this challenge, it was obvious that he had enough confidence.
Perhaps, other than the cultivation techniques, he had other trump cards that he didn't know about.
Bu Zheng vaguely guessed that Lin Feng was going to do something big this time.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have said those words in the end.
At this moment, someone had already informed Rivertown to arrange protection for Lin Feng's family.
"I know some of his trump cards. However, without Lin Feng's permission, I can't tell you. Regardless of the outcome, the fact is that he performed well and saved two geniuses."
Bu Zheng said very seriously.
He knew that there were already people who were interested in Lin Feng's trump cards.
Some were even ready to make a move.
When Lin Feng defeated Hai Wei, there would definitely be a lot of people eyeing him.
However, the stronger Lin Feng's potential was, the more guaranteed his safety would be.
A genius with the potential to be invincible among his peers was a national weapon in the eyes of the higher-ups.
No one dared to go against such a genius openly.
Furthermore, other than himself, Lin Feng didn't have no one to back him up.
He had the Yang Clan behind him.
Even if Lin Feng didn't want to return to the Yang Clan, Lin Feng's talent would definitely alarm the Yang Clan.
As long as his identity was announced, some people with ulterior motives would also be wary.
"If he really has a trump card, is there a need to keep it a secret?"
Someone asked curiously.
It wasn't just the person who asked the question. Everyone was curious.
"Everyone has a trump card, even the Thirteen Emperors. Do you want to go and ask?"
Bu Zheng looked at the person who asked the question and mocked him.
The person who asked the question smiled slightly and didn't take it to heart. However, a glint flashed across his eyes.
....
After entering the Ming Hua Realm, Lin Feng seemed to have entered a completely sealed world.
From here, he couldn't see anything outside, nor could he hear anything. He couldn't even feel the flow of the wind.
The Ming Hua Realm not only cut off sight and sound, it even seemed to cut off air.
"How long can this Ming Hua Realm last?"
Lin Feng touched the barrier's energy barrier. His palms were cold, and the energy in his body was slowly flowing into the barrier.
"According to what you humans say, you have half an hour. Don't worry, no one will disturb you in this battle."
Hai Wei said with a smile when they were less than two meters apart.
At this moment, he had already exited his Demon Transformation state.
Within this special barrier, the two of them didn't draw their swords. It was as if they were friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. They chatted casually, and neither of them was in a hurry to make a move.
"Half an hour. That's so long. No wonder it's a God-tier Soul Skill."
Lin Feng sighed.
Although this barrier didn't have any offensive capabilities and had a lot of drawbacks, such as the slow release of Soul Skills and the inability to move, its defensive capabilities were indeed very strong.
It could absorb the energy of the attacker and maintain the stability of the barrier for half an hour. It was enough time for a teammate who had overdrawn their Soul Power or was injured to recover.
This was indeed a very outstanding barrier Soul Skill.
In a team, it could be very effective.
With this Soul Skill, one wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by enemies or demonic beasts when resting in the wilderness.
"You don't seem to be afraid at all?"
Hai Wei asked.
Lin Feng was too calm, and this calmness made him feel a little uneasy.
This uneasiness made him feel a little unfamiliar.
Facing an opponent weaker than him, he actually felt uneasy?
"You seem to be very interested in me?"
Lin Feng looked at Hai Wei and asked.
"You're right. I'm rarely interested in humans!"
Hai Wei nodded and didn't hide his thoughts.
There was a look of desire in his eyes as he looked at Lin Feng. "His first and second soul skills were both purplish-gold soul skills. Even I can't do that. It's hard not to be curious. Don't you think so?"
Lin Feng didn't comment. He was very calm.
Hai Wei didn't seem to mind. He continued, "In two years, you broke through from the first rank to the sixth rank. This cultivation speed has surpassed mine!"
"And just now, I felt the aura of the Dragonfish Transformation. You've actually completed the fifth transformation!"
At this point, Hai Wei's tone was filled with amazement. "Do you know that even I took ten years to complete the fifth transformation?"
"And you only took two years!
If the Dragon King, who created this technique, knew about it, he would find it unbelievable! "
At this point, Hai Wei's eyes burned with madness.
He couldn't figure out how Lin Feng had done it, but he longed to have this ability.
If he had this ability, with his status and resources, he would surpass his grandfather, the Dragon King, and become the strongest person on Shenwu Continent.
"You want to know this secret?"
Looking at the excited Hai Wei, Lin Feng asked curiously, "How can you be sure that this isn't my innate gift?"
Hai Wei laughed as if he had heard a joke. "Your martial talent isn't unique.
Although it's rare to see your first and second soul skills absorb purplish-gold soul skills, there are still people who can do it. My grandfather, the Dragon King, was one of them. His first five soul skills all absorbed purplish-gold soul skills, but even so, he still tried many times and used up all sorts of demon spirits.
"And you, you succeeded on your first try!"
"In two years, you've cultivated the Dragonfish Transformation to the fifth transformation. This can no longer be described as an innate gift. You definitely have a secret, and this secret allowed you to transform from a person with mediocre talent into a monstrous genius."
Hai Wei's light purple eyes flickered. "Tell me, how did you do all this? Tell me, and I'll swear to let you go!"
From the beginning, Hai Wei had only wanted this secret, not Lin Feng's life.
Lin Feng's life was worthless to him!
After witnessing Lin Feng's ruthlessness and decisiveness, Hai Wei was worried that Lin Feng would commit suicide without telling him the truth.
Seeing that Lin Feng wasn't speaking, Hai Wei continued.
"You don't have to worry about my oath. I can establish a soul contract that requires the use of one's soul force. Even a King Realm powerhouse has to abide by it!"
After he finished speaking, Hai Wei opened his right hand, and an ancient scroll appeared out of thin air. The scroll was made of leather, and it emitted a mysterious fluctuation.
Lin Feng wasn't interested in the scroll, but he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the ring on Hai Wei's right hand.
The silvery-white ring was simple and elegant, and it was embedded with a green gem.
If Lu Yin's guess wasn't wrong, this was a legendary storage treasure.
A spatial ring.
This was a legendary spiritual artifact!
Even if it was only one cubic meter, it was still worth hundreds of billions.
The majority of guardians didn't have such a spiritual artifact.
This was a treasure that couldn't be bought with money.
"You want it?"
When he saw Lin Feng's gaze, Hai Wei raised his hand.
"This spatial ring was given to me by the Dragon King when I turned sixteen.
Only five people in the Dragon King Palace have such a storage treasure!
The Shenwu Continent doesn't have more than a hundred storage treasures.
This ring has three cubic meters, and it's considered an upper-middle grade storage treasure. Give me your secret, and this spatial ring will be yours. "
This ring was also very precious to him, but it wasn't as tempting as Lin Feng's secret.
Seeing that Lin Feng didn't respond, Hai Wei remained silent for a while. Then, he continued, "In the near future, the various major races of the Shenwu Continent will enter Earth. When that time comes, it might not mean war, but rather peace!"
"Earth is very large, and it won't be a problem to accommodate the people of the Shenwu Continent."
Hai Wei slowly continued, "Some of the powers of the human race have already joined us.
When the time comes, we will give them space to live and shelter. If you are willing, I am willing to shelter you and your family. "
"Shelter?"
Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh, and he mocked, "You're talking about peace on one hand, but you're also talking about shelter on the other. Your words are contradictory, and only a few idiots will believe such a ridiculous argument."
Hai Wei frowned. "War is something that no one wants to see, but if the human race isn't willing to accept our arrival, then war is unavoidable!
I'm sure that you are aware of the Shenwu Continent's overall strength, and the human race is no match for us. As long as you give me your secret, I can guarantee that you and your family will be safe and sound during this war! "
"Heh …"
Lin Feng sneered. He hadn't expected that Hai Wei would actually try to persuade him to surrender just to obtain this secret.
What a joke!
After experiencing the nightmare of a city being massacred eleven years later, Lin Feng naturally didn't believe such nonsense.
Those who weren't of the same race were bound to have different intentions.
Countries in the world could go to war over resources or even small conflicts, and they might even destroy an entire country.
Only when both sides were evenly matched in terms of strength would it be possible to maintain peace.
The Shenwu Continent's fighting power was far stronger than Earth's.
This also meant that the Shenwu Continent would always have thoughts of destroying the human race.
Even a small conflict could lead to a chain reaction.
This was an invasion from two different worlds, and there was no possibility of compromise!
Just like how humans were used to being the rulers of the food chain, how could they not eat animals and coexist peacefully with them?
When he saw that Lin Feng was unmoved, Hai Wei's patience gradually ran out. His face sank, and he icily said, "Don't force me to make a move. No matter what this secret is, I believe that it isn't as important as your own life!"
"Do you know why I agreed to duel with you?" Lin Feng asked.
Hai Wei didn't answer.
This was the question that had puzzled him the most.
He didn't believe that Lin Feng was so noble.
"Perhaps you are confident that you can defeat me. In the past, there were some geniuses of the human race who were so confident, but they all died at my hands in the end."
"You are the first person to see my true strength."
Lin Feng walked towards Hai Wei. Hai Wei was about to say something when his pupils suddenly shrank. He saw that Lin Feng's body was rapidly expanding, and his muscles were bulging. His entire body seemed to have swelled up, and his bones were crackling. His original height of 1.8 meters suddenly increased to 2.5 meters.
At this moment, Lin Feng's muscles were expanding, and his special clothes looked like they were about to burst. His arms were the most exaggerated. Not only were they half a meter longer, but they were also covered in green scales. The scales were pentagonal, and the joints were thicker. He had sharp claws like a dragon's claws. A pair of green wings sprouted from Lin Feng's back. The wings were two meters long, and they were also covered in green scales. When they flapped, purple electric arcs lingered around like lightning snakes, and the air became somewhat scorching.
At the same time, a ferocious aura like that of a monster appeared.
"You have indeed reached the fifth transformation!"
Although Hai Wei had already guessed it, he couldn't hide the shock on his face when he saw Lin Feng use the Dragonfish Transformation.
"It's not the fifth transformation!" Lin Feng smiled.
Hai Wei frowned. He didn't understand what Lin Feng meant. Having dragon wings was the symbol of the fifth transformation. At this moment, Lin Feng's appearance was somewhat similar to when he was using the cultivation technique.
This was the transformation of the cultivation technique, and not the possession of a monster spirit. Hai Wei was sure of it.
"It's the sixth transformation, Dragon's Horn."
As Lin Feng's voice fell, two deer-like horns appeared on both sides of Lin Feng's forehead. The two horns were about 20 centimeters long, and were dark green in color.
Along with the appearance of the horns, Lin Feng's body expanded again, and his aura became even more ferocious. A pressure unique to the Dragon Clan made Hai Wei tremble.
"The sixth transformation?"
Hai Wei's expression was very interesting. He muttered to himself, unable to believe his eyes.
How could it be the sixth transformation?
After cultivating the Dragonfish Transformation for ten years, even he had only reached the fifth transformation. The sixth transformation would take at least three or even five years.
A lowly human had actually surpassed him, who was known as the most talented person in the Dragon King Palace in the past hundred years.
How could this be?
After recovering from his shock, Hai Wei's eyes lit up with a fiery light. "I know, it must be that secret. That secret allowed you to have such talent."
"Give it to me, give it to me, quickly!"
Along with Hai Wei's strong desire, his body rapidly expanded. A purple electric arc shuttled back and forth on the surface of his body like a small snake. His hands continued to expand, and blue veins popped out, turning into sharp dragon claws. Purple scales penetrated his skin and spread all over his body, gradually forming a purple armor. When he opened his eyes, his originally light purple pupils had turned into a purple-gold color.
A pair of purple-red wings protruded from Hai Wei's back. As the wings flapped, purple electric arcs shuttled back and forth. This wasn't the end. After the Demon Transformation, Hai Wei's body rapidly expanded, and his muscles bulged. With a series of crackling sounds, his body suddenly grew taller, and he became a three-meter-tall giant covered in purple dragon scales.
"I have to say, you've repeatedly exceeded my expectations. You've truly surprised me."
With a height of nearly three meters, Hai Wei was now two heads taller than Linfeng. His body was also stronger than Linfeng's.
"The sixth transformation is indeed something that even I can't reach. However, the Dragonfish Transformation can only unleash its strongest power when combined with the Dragon Clan's demon spirit. In this aspect, you're far inferior to me."
Speaking until here, Hai Wei's body underwent another transformation. Under the possession of the demon spirit, his height broke through three and a half meters. His dragon claws grew larger, and his scales turned from purple to dark purple. His eyes also turned dark gold. A pair of horns appeared on his forehead, and a dragon tail covered in scales emerged from his tailbone. An even more powerful dragon aura swept out.
"This is the strongest combination of a cultivation technique, a bloodline, and a demon spirit!"
Hai Wei released his powerful aura. Under this aura, Linfeng, who was a size smaller, looked a little weak.
"Truly powerful!"
Feeling the violent aura coming from Hai Wei, Linfeng couldn't help but sigh.
His current state was already very powerful. However, when facing Hai Wei, it was like facing the real deal. They weren't on the same level.
The combination of the Divine Spirit Bloodline and the Earth Ranking's Dragon Clan's demon spirit wasn't something that could be easily made up for.
Facing Hai Wei's gaze, Linfeng began to circulate the Bloodtear cultivation technique. Linfeng's muscles expanded once again, and his veins were like pythons swimming around his body. It was a shocking sight. His height increased once again, reaching three and a half meters. The blood in his body surged, and even overflowed from his body, forming red streams of air on the surface of his body.
At this moment, the dragon claws on Linfeng's arms expanded once again. His aura was terrifying, and his body was filled with a high temperature, as if it was about to ignite.
"You want to compete in height with me?"
Linfeng came before the dumbfounded Hai Wei. He lowered his head to look at Hai Wei, who was a size smaller than him, and faintly smiled.
