Just like the Thunder Martial Dojo, the Martial Artist Forum was also in an uproar.
The netizens used words to express their excitement and shock.
Under the 'High School Student Beats Martial Artist' post, the number of comments increased by thousands every few minutes.
Brother Yun: "Damn!
Stage 8 Physique Cultivator. Did he really hide his strength? "
Happy Sweet Potato: "Ye Qiu in the South, Linfeng in the North. They really live up to their names!"
Fire and Water: "Lin Feng and Ye Qiu are not on the same level. Ye Qiu refined the Thorny Demonic Dragon ranked 46th on the Earth Leaderboard. What about Lin Feng?"
Who Is More Handsome Than Me: "I admit that Ye Qiu is a genius. It's rare to see one in Jiangcheng, but there are other geniuses like him. Last year, Wang Dao from Kaifeng City was not inferior to Ye Qiu in terms of talent and strength. But Linfeng, I've never seen a high school student with such combat talent."
Yun Zhi: "I'm a girl. I like Linfeng. He's more handsome than Ye Qiu and so loyal. Ya Ge doesn't deserve such a man."
Don't Make Me Unhappy: "If Linfeng can also refine the Earth Leaderboard demon spirit, Ye Qiu won't be able to stand up to him."
The Weather Forecast: "Linfeng can scare Ye Qiu to the point of peeing his pants. In the future, Ye Qiu can beat the shit out of Lin Feng!"
Internet Cafe Guru: "The Strongest High School Student in History!"
Brother Sharp: "The Strongest High School Student in History!"
Chen Yun laughed: "The Strongest High School Student in History!"
The netizens commented crazily. Even those who doubted Linfeng could not deny the title of 'The Strongest High School Student in History'.
Although it was rare for a high school student to become a Rank 1 martial artist in high school, there would be a few every year in Yun City. However, even such martial arts geniuses could not be compared to college students who had gone through actual combat.
Therefore, Lin Feng, who could beat up Chen Xu, was definitely the strongest high school student in history.
Originally, the netizens had treated it as a joke: "Ye Qiu in the South, Lin Feng in the North." But now, it had unknowingly become a comparison.
A comparison of strength and talent!
It was obvious that Lin Feng was stronger.
However, in terms of talent, Ye Qiu's supporters made up the majority of the comments. After all, Ye Qiu was a publicly acknowledged genius.
There's also a minority that supports Lin Feng. The premise of their support is that Lin Feng has the talent to become a Demon Spiritualist. If he doesn't have the talent to become a Soul Cultivator, then no matter how strong his combat talent is, it's useless.
Therefore, the topic of discussion among the netizens was whether or not Lin Feng could become a Demon Spiritualist.
What grade of demon spirit could he refine?
If Linfeng is able to refine a Grade 9 demon spirit, with his combat talent, even if his potential can't be compared to Ye Qiu's, it wouldn't be too far off.
If he's able to refine an Earth Ranking demon spirit, then his potential might even surpass Ye Qiu's.
On the other hand, if it's a lie, then no matter how strong Linfeng's combat talent is, he wouldn't be qualified to be Ye Qiu's opponent.
.....
After defeating Chen Xu, Linfeng walked down the stage. He didn't have any intention of continuing the challenge.
As a Rank-1 martial artist, Lin Feng had fought head-on against a Rank-1 martial artist with the strength of a Rank-8 Physique Cultivator. Although he had won by relying on his combat experience, he had used up a lot of energy. Even though he had not overdrawn himself, if the next opponent was stronger, Lin Feng was not absolutely confident that he could win.
He can't lose!
If he loses once, then all the accumulated popularity would disappear.
Winning once to prove his strength is enough.
Even if he wins more, he won't get any advertising fees. It's meaningless.
When Linfeng walked down the stage, the crowd that had been waiting for him immediately swarmed up. The scene was a little chaotic.
"Linfeng, can you refine an Earth Ranking demon spirit?"
"Linfeng, please join our Berserker Dojo. We have prepared a very good contract for you."
"I'm a reporter from the Blue and White News Agency. May I ask, Linfeng, are you really hiding your strength?
Are you really just trying to get into the same university as Ya Ge? "
"Linfeng, I'm the person in charge of the Cloudwood Club. We would like to invite you to join the Cloudwood Club."
"Everyone make way. Linfeng, I'm interested in your advertising space. Can we have a chat?"
"Linfeng, I'll pay a high price to buy your advertising space. Let's have a good talk!"
Linfeng's ears were filled with all kinds of voices. Although he appeared calm, he was secretly shaking his head.
He had never heard of the Berserker Dojo and the Cloudwood Club. Obviously, they're just some small clubs and dojos. They don't even have an A rank club.
However, within the crowd, Linfeng could see the figures of some of the bigger clubs. They were standing further away. Although they were also interested, their expressions were more reserved. This kind of treatment was like heaven and earth compared to Ye Qiu.
Lin Feng understood that although these people seemed to be very enthusiastic and sincere, none of them directly stated their conditions. For example, how much the annual salary would be. These people were obviously here to try their luck and fish in troubled waters, hoping to catch a big fish. However, they were reluctant to use the bait.
They needed to confirm his talent and confirm if he really has the talent to become a Demon Spiritualist before giving him a contract.
Linfeng's purpose was only for the advertising fee.
He needed money to buy the elixirs to refine the Nightmare Demon.
As for refining the Nightmare Demon, it would take at least a year before he would have enough soul force to refine another demon spirit.
Therefore, he naturally couldn't confirm his talent as a Soul Cultivator for these people.
Even if he wanted to sign a contract with a club, his target would be an S rank club. Many of these small clubs don't even have the qualifications to participate in the Glory of Glory Professional League. There's no future for them.
Only an S rank club would have a professional team and funds to give him the conditions that he wants.
"Sorry, I want to join an S rank club. My advertising fee would be at least 10 million!"
Linfeng's direct answer made the atmosphere a little awkward. Many people who knew that they weren't strong enough no longer spoke.
At this moment, a young woman wearing a uniform walked over and said to Linfeng, "Mr. Linfeng, the person in charge of our Thunder Club, Old Jiang, would like to see you."
Following the direction that the woman was pointing, Linfeng couldn't see that not far away, there was a white-haired old man wearing a Tang suit nodding his head.
"Juxing?"
As the person in charge of Rivertown Thunder Club, Linfeng naturally wasn't unfamiliar with this Old Jiang.
On the day of awakening, Old Jiang gave Ye Qiu a contract of 3 billion, as well as the conditions that he agreed to, which left a deep impression on Ye Qiu.
What really surprised Linfeng was the woman beside Old Jiang.
She was the person in charge of the Juxing Club. Although he didn't know her name, he still remembered that the woman had looked at him with a hint of disdain and threat the day before yesterday.
Seeing that Linfeng had noticed her, Zhang Ling smiled and behaved very amiably. This made Linfeng sneer in his heart. The difference between their attitudes before and after was like heaven and earth.
"Linfeng, let me introduce myself. I'm the person in charge of the Thunder Club in Rivertown. You can just call me Old Jiang."
When Linfeng arrived, Old Jiang chuckled and said, "It's too noisy here. Shall we find a quiet place to chat?"
"Linfeng, we meet again," Zhang Ling also spoke and behaved very naturally.
"Sure."
Linfeng nodded to Old Jiang and said.
Even when facing the people in charge of two S-level clubs, his expression remained calm and even a little cold, giving people a sense of arrogance. However, Old Jiang and Zhang Ling didn't pay too much attention to it. Geniuses were all different. Wasn't Ye Qiu the same?
In the distance, the crowd that was still watching shook their heads and sighed helplessly. They directly gave up hope. In front of Thunder and Juxing, they had no competition at all.
"Old Jiang, wait."
Just as the three of them left, a skinny middle-aged man hurried over and waved his hand.
Old Jiang and Zhang Ling's expressions changed slightly. They weren't very enthusiastic and even a little cold. Obviously, they didn't welcome this person.
"Jiang Jun, we have something to talk about later?" Old Jiang said.
The middle-aged man called Jiang Jun chuckled and said, "We have the same purpose. Let's go together."
Zhang Ling looked at Jiang Jun and frowned slightly.
This Jiang Jun was the person in charge of the Rivertown branch of the Zhaifeng Club. He could be considered as her sworn enemy.
In the Glory League, if Juxing was synonymous with the rich and powerful, then Zhaifeng was synonymous with the strong teams.
The two clubs had been fighting openly and covertly for many years in the Glory League.
In the early days, Juxing had been trampled under the feet of Zhaifeng, unable to fight back.
In these years, because of the large influx of capital, Juxing had experienced rapid development and had become a publicly recognized rich and powerful club in the Glory League. Its financial power and influence far exceeded Zhaifeng's, but Zhaifeng Club's results were no worse than Juxing's. In fact, they were even stronger.
As one of the three biggest clubs in the Glory League, Zhaifeng was one of the earliest clubs in the Glory League.
As an old Glory Club, Zhaifeng Club's management style was clearly different from Juxing.
The Juxing Club not only chose their members based on talent and strength, but also their commercial value and image.
Zhaifeng Club only cared about talent and strength. Other than that, everything else was secondary.
It was better if they had talent, but it didn't matter if they didn't.
Zhaifeng Club didn't nurture superstars. They only wanted the champions of the Glory League.
This was also the main reason why Zhaifeng Club didn't try to recruit Ye Qiu on the Day of Awakening.
Without a doubt, Ye Qiu was a genius that every club dreamed of having.
But because his talent was too outstanding, and because he had refined the Bramble Demon Dragon, his future class was a Battle Mage. He was destined to be the center of the team. This didn't fit the current style and tactics of Zhaifeng Club.
So, they would rather give up on Ye Qiu, who had the potential to become the strongest offensive player in the Glory League, than change the team's tactics and affect the team.
And this was the unique aspect of Zhaifeng Club.
Because of this, Zhaifeng and Juxing didn't like each other.
"Fine, you're just a follower. Follow me," Elder Jiang said in annoyance.
His tone was both helpless and joking. It was clear that his relationship with Lil 'Jiang wasn't bad, and in front of Lin Feng, he couldn't just chase him away.
"Alright, Elder Jiang is Elder Jiang. You really are generous."
Jiang Jun chuckled, then said to Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, your performance in the arena today was very spectacular."
"Thank you!"
Being praised, Lin Feng naturally expressed his gratitude.
After greeting Lin Feng, Jiang Jun looked at Zhang Ling, saying, "Department Head Zhang, I heard that Juxing has been making a lot of moves recently!"
"What do you mean?" Zhang Ling asked, confused.
She had a bad feeling. After interacting with Jiang Jun so many times, she knew that this guy didn't have good intentions.
As expected, Jiang Jun's next sentence made her expression turn ugly.
"I heard from a friend that Juxing already has the evolution path for the Charming Butterfly. Now the club plans to focus on nurturing Ya Ge!"
