Lin Feng shrugged and smiled slightly. He couldn't be blamed for being narcissistic; it was really because Liu Fei was acting abnormally.
Liu Fei, standing beside him, saw Lin Feng's nonchalant appearance and her chest heaved up and down. She gritted her teeth to suppress the anger in her heart.
"I want to discuss something with you," Liu Fei said after a moment of silence, her face flushed red.
"What is it?" Lin Feng asked curiously.
"Do you know which force is the strongest in our Snow Moon Kingdom?" Liu Fei asked.
"Of course, it's the royal family of Snow Moon City," Lin Feng said casually. He knew a bit about the Snow Moon Kingdom. The royal family could claim the throne, so their strength was undoubtedly the greatest. Just like the ancient feudal lords in the previous life, whoever was powerful would vie for the throne. In this world, only strength mattered. Lin Feng didn't think the royal family could become the imperial family without the power to awe Snow Moon.
Liu Fei was taken aback, not expecting Lin Feng to have some knowledge and hit the nail on the head.
"You're right. In the Snow Moon Kingdom, the royal family is the strongest. Even though there are many other powerful forces and families in Snow Moon, such as our Cloud Sea Sect, none of them can match the royal family," Liu Fei said slowly. "However, right now, the Snow Moon ruler is gathering the talents of Snow Moon to establish the Snow Moon Holy Academy. At that time, the outstanding disciples of major sects like the Cloud Sea Sect and the Bright Moon Sect will gather together, receiving the best resources and being taught by the best teachers, growing into true powerhouses."
Liu Fei paused for a moment, looking at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at Liu Fei and smiled lazily, "What does this have to do with me?"
Liu Fei rolled her eyes at Lin Feng, secretly cursing him. This guy was very smart, and Liu Fei didn't believe he didn't understand her meaning.
"Don't you want to become a part of the Snow Moon Holy Academy? Once you enter there, you'll have an endless supply of various spirit pills and weapons, and you can choose any cultivation techniques and martial skills," Liu Fei tempted him.
At this point, Lin Feng couldn't help but understand Liu Fei's intention. However, he was now guessing what Liu Fei's identity was, as she was recruiting talent for the royal family.
Thinking of the Crimson Blood Iron Riders he encountered at the foot of the mountain, Lin Feng was even more certain that Liu Fei's identity was extraordinary.
Seeing Lin Feng's flickering eyes, Liu Fei smiled, "What do you think? Are you tempted?"
Lin Feng touched his chin, looking at Liu Fei with a half-smile, "Is there a beautiful woman like you to be given as a gift?"
"......"
Seeing Liu Fei's face turn red and then pale, Lin Feng laughed heartily and walked forward.
"Although the royal family is strong, the other sects in the Snow Moon Kingdom are also ambitious and none of them are willing to sink. To make them hand over the outstanding disciples they have cultivated and send them to the royal family to enter the Snow Moon Holy Academy, is it that simple?"
Lin Feng's words made Liu Fei's eyes widen. This guy was even smarter than she thought. No wonder he had such strong talent. As for earlier, it was just this bastard teasing her...
Thinking of this, Liu Fei felt uncomfortable all over. If she had the chance, she would beat this bastard up for daring to mock her. But for now... Liu Fei lifted her feet and caught up with Lin Feng.
......
Nine Cold Peak, the place where inner disciples gather.
On Nine Cold Peak, there is a huge cave, which is the most frequently visited place by inner disciples. In the center of the cave is a stone wall.
On the stone wall, names are carved, nine per row, with a total of nine rows, eighty-one names, representing the eighty-one strongest inner disciples.
More surprisingly, this huge stone wall is like a chessboard, and the eighty-one names are like chess pieces, which can be moved and changed positions at will.
All inner disciples hope their names are near the front, constantly jumping forward, which means their rankings are moving up.
At this moment, Butcher's name has been taken down from the front, but everyone knows that Butcher's name will appear on the ranking stone wall of core disciples.
The three words that replaced Butcher's name and are now at the top of the stone wall are particularly eye-catching.
"Wen Renyan."
This name, which rose like a comet, took only a year to stand at the peak of inner disciples. Moreover, no one doubted that if Wen Renyan wanted to, he could even enter the core ranks this time. However, Wen Renyan did not, and everyone knew that Wen Renyan was too proud to let his ranking be in the last few rows of core disciples.
Wen Renyan, at the age of sixteen, officially appeared in the Cloud Sea Sect and did not go through the outer sect, directly entering the inner sect. In the following year, he continuously challenged the front of the stone wall. Now, a whole year has passed, and his name is carved in the most eye-catching position.
Many people believe that Wen Renyan's achievements will even surpass those of Linghu Heshan and Butcher.
At this moment, a group of figures were walking toward the cave with the stone wall. The surrounding inner disciples immediately made way, their eyes filled with admiration.
"Wen Renyan, he's here."
In this group, the person in the middle was wearing a white robe, handsome and elegant. His pupils were a striking blue, making him look particularly exotic. This person was none other than Wen Renyan.
"Wen Renyan, congratulations," a young man beside Wen Renyan said with a smile.
"Only the first in the inner sect," Wen Renyan said expressionlessly, glancing at the ranking stone wall. "Chen Xing, with your current strength, you can also have your name carved on the stone wall this time."
"Sure, it will definitely happen," Chen Xing nodded. Last time, he was defeated by Lin Qian in front of everyone, which made him train even harder. His strength broke through not long ago, and he is now at the second level of the Spirit Martial Realm, with outstanding talent and a considerable reputation in the inner sect, and he is also favored by Wen Renyan.
"Ha ha," Wen Renyan smiled faintly, then scanned the crowd, his blue eyes flashing with a hint of exotic color.
"From today, I announce that Liu Fei is my woman. Whoever dares to have designs on Liu Fei is my enemy."
Wen Renyan's words made everyone gasp. It was long rumored that Wen Renyan had intentions toward Liu Fei, and now he was publicly declaring Liu Fei as his, which was extremely domineering.
After all, even core disciples had their eyes on Liu Fei. For Wen Renyan to say such arrogant words after becoming the top inner disciple, he was no longer taking the other suitors seriously.
Everyone fell silent, but at this moment, an untimely voice suddenly rang out.
"Whether Liu Fei is your woman or not, it's not up to you. Liu Fei herself must say it." Han Man knew that Liu Fei was currently with Lin Feng, and hearing Wen Renyan's arrogant words, he was immediately annoyed.
"Hmm?" Everyone's eyes narrowed.
"Who is so bold to question Wen Renyan? Do you want to die?"
People thought to themselves. Now, not only was Wen Renyan himself powerful, but he was also highly valued by the sect due to his talent. Even core disciples dared not challenge him.
"Very well." Wen Renyan's gaze turned, and he took a step forward. His blue eyes flashed with a hint of exotic light, and his pale hand struck out like a venomous snake.
"Boom."
Han Man's body collided violently with the cave wall, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes still carried a defiant cold light.
"Say it again, and I'll kill you."
Wen Renyan's tone was calm but extremely domineering.
"Damn it." Han Man spat out a mouthful of blood and glared at Wen Renyan coldly, "Don't think becoming the top inner disciple in a year is that impressive. Give my brother a year, and he'll crush you."
"Oh? Who is your brother? Tell me."
Wen Renyan showed a hint of mockery.
"Lin Feng, Liu Fei's man."
Han Man deliberately said this. Given Lin Feng's performance on the life-and-death platform today, Han Man didn't believe the sect would let Wen Renyan touch him. As long as Lin Feng had time, he would definitely surpass Wen Renyan. Han Man believed in Lin Feng more than he believed in himself.
"Who is Lin Feng?"
Wen Renyan asked calmly. He didn't go to the life-and-death platform today, and with his strength, no one would dare challenge him.
"Just a kid who just entered the Spirit Martial Realm, who has grasped a bit of sword momentum. He is far from you, and I am enough to crush him."
Chen Xing said disdainfully.
"Is that so?"
At this moment, a faint, carefree voice came from outside the cave.
