Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 5: Chapter 5 Escalation of Conflict

“Zhang Long has been crippled!”

Exclamations echoed through the crowd as everyone looked at Lin Feng in disbelief.

Rumors outside said that Lin Feng’s cultivation had drastically declined because he helped Su Yuexi heal, leaving him half-disabled and afflicted with fire poison, but now it seemed the situation was not entirely as the rumors claimed.

“How dare you cripple Zhang Long?” Bai Yifei roared instantly, his eyes cold.

“A worthless piece of trash like him dared to bother me, so what if I crippled him?”

Lin Feng sneered, “You bastards, mongrels, just wait. Since I didn’t die under the cliff, your fate won’t be much better than Zhang Long’s.”

Many around started discussing fervently.

Lin Feng was too bold.

Cursing Su Yuexi as a bastard could be overlooked, given that Su Yuexi had no major family backing, and indeed many despised her for her disgraceful ways.

But calling Bai Yifei a mongrel, that not only cursed Bai Yifei but also offended the Bai Family.

The Bai Family was a major family in Jialan City, and everyone was shocked by Lin Feng’s fearless demeanor.

“Are you courting death?” Su Yuexi screamed, glaring venomously at Lin Feng.

“Lin Feng, what kind of thing do you think you are, daring to insult Yuexi?”

Suddenly, a cold snort came through.

Among the group with Bai Yifei and Su Yuexi was a young man, tall and strong, named Su Keqing, who was Su Yuexi’s cousin.

His cultivation was at the Martial Artist Fifth Level, very powerful.

Su Keqing sneered and said, “Lin Feng, a minor family offspring, your cultivation has fallen, and you’re now half-disabled. What qualifications do you have to be worthy of Yuexi? Compared to Brother Yifei, your cultivation and family background are like the difference between heaven and earth. Someone like you wants to be with Yuexi? Why don’t you take a long, hard look at yourself?”

Lin Feng shook his head, “A year ago, at the academy, I was so charismatic and the favored son of heaven. At that time, when Su Yuexi went astray and became possessed, she sought me for healing. I remember you were there too, begging pitifully for my help with that bitch Su Yuexi. At that time, I didn’t see that all you Su Family people are ingrates. Su Yuexi is a bitch, a ****, and you? Deserve to be a cousin of a bitch, like attracts like.”

“You’re courting death.”

Su Keqing’s expression turned gloomy, and he roared, leaping towards Lin Feng.

“Lin Feng, you worthless piece of trash, shamelessly boasting here. Today, I will teach you a lesson so that you know how to advance and retreat.”

“Hawk Thirteen Claws!”

Su Keqing let out a long howl, his hands like eagle claws.

Swish, swish, swish…

He unleashed thirteen consecutive strikes toward Lin Feng.

The claw light was foreboding, with a coldness as sharp as a knife.

This was a Yellow Rank Middle Level Martial Skill.

Martial Skills, ranked from low to high, are divided into “Yellow, Dark, Earth, Heaven” four stages.

Each stage is subdivided into initial, middle, high, and peak levels.

In Jialan Academy, the most powerful martial skill is the Dark Stage High-Level Martial Skill—Sun Dark Sky Skill. But such high-stage martial skills are only for the top levels of Jialan Academy to cultivate.

As for Earth Rank and Heaven Rank level martial skills, they are the stuff of legends, and even throughout the Heavenly Martial Continent, Earth Rank and Dark Stage martial skills had not appeared in many years.

“Such a move as Hawk Thirteen Claws, one strike is like a hawk’s swift kill, this Hawk Thirteen Claws has been cultivated by Su Keqing to perfection. I think Lin Feng is in trouble now.”

“Right, Lin Feng is in danger. He might lose to this Hawk Thirteen Claws move. Who knows what will happen to him in Su Keqing’s hands?”

“Heh, do you even need to ask? His fate will be miserable, surely!”

Many students talked amongst themselves, looking at Lin Feng with sympathetic eyes.

Facing Su Keqing’s Hawk Thirteen Claws move!

Lin Feng moved.

He stepped forward, suddenly punched.

Furious like thunder.

Swift as a dragon.

Lin Feng was like a jiaolong, stirring the clouds and rain.

Jiaolong emerged from the sea…

Bang!

Lin Feng and Su Keqing collided.

Crack, crack!

Everyone heard the sound of bones breaking.

“Ah.”

Su Keqing screamed, his arm that had clashed with Lin Feng broke directly.

His whole body was sent flying with a punch from Lin Feng.

Thud.

Su Keqing crashed heavily to the ground, utterly fainted.

In one move, Su Keqing was crippled by Lin Feng.

“What? Lin Feng is that powerful?”

“My heavens! Am I seeing things wrong? Didn’t the outside world say Lin Feng’s cultivation had plummeted? And that he had become a cripple? How can he still be so fierce?”

Exclamations sounded, and many couldn’t believe as they looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng’s overwhelming victory over Su Keqing at the Martial Artist Fifth Level shocked everyone.

“You…” Su Yuexi’s face changed dramatically, looking at Lin Feng as if she no longer knew him.

Lin Feng, supposedly a piece of trash, how could he still be so powerful? Su Yuexi couldn’t figure this out.

“Lin Feng, I want you dead!”

Bai Yifei’s voice was icy.

Swish.

Bai Yifei drew the longsword at his waist, intending to cut down Lin Feng.

“Am I supposed to fear you?” Lin Feng sneered.

Both parties, swords drawn and arrows strung, were ready to strike.

“Stop…”

Just then, a cold voice came.

A white-clothed young cultivator arrived.

“Gongsun Changge, the nineteenth-ranked super genius in the Inner Academy, is in charge of the order during the Inner Academy examination.”

Seeing the white-clothed cultivator, many exclaimed, showing respectful expressions.

Among the hundreds of thousands of students in Jialan Academy, Gongsun Changge was ranked nineteenth, which showed how monstrous he was.

Gongsun Changge’s cultivation had already broken through the Martial Master Realm three years ago and was now unfathomable.

“Senior Brother Gongsun!”

Lin Feng and Bai Yifei had to stop and both saluted Gongsun Changge.

Gongsun Changge glanced at Bai Yifei and Lin Feng, then said, “No matter what grudges you two have, do not fight privately and disrupt order. If you want to resolve your grievances, you can decide during the Inner Academy examination.”

“Yes.” Lin Feng and Bai Yifei both replied.

Gongsun Changge nodded, gave Lin Feng a meaningful look, and then left.

“Consider yourself lucky. Pray you don’t encounter me during the Inner Academy examination. At that time, I will make you die miserably.”

Bai Yifei looked at Lin Feng coldly.

“Is that so? I do look forward to seeing what makes you so arrogant.” Lin Feng sneered, stepping away.

“Brother Fei, Lin Feng has become a big problem for us,” Su Yuexi said worriedly.

“Yuexi, you don’t need to worry, just a piece of trash. During this Inner Academy examination, I’ll take care of him,” Bai Yifei said confidently.

Su Yuexi giggled, saying, “Yuexi naturally believes in Brother Fei’s ability.”

As the surrounding crowd dispersed, many were still discussing the conflict between Lin Feng and Bai Yifei.

Lin Feng, however, found a corner, closed his eyes to rest, waiting for the examination to begin.

Dong, dong, dong…

Suddenly, resonant and firm bell sounds echoed from above the square.

Lin Feng opened his eyes, looking towards the stage deep within the square.

The Inner Academy examination had begun!
