Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Take It Easy! (First Update)

Boom!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Nanfeng’s sword finally thrust forward, enveloped with a crushing force intended to annihilate everything, piercing fiercely at Jiang Xiaofan’s chest.

Then, a sudden burst of clanging metallic sounds erupted. Jiang Xiaofan neither dodged nor flinched, allowing that sword to strike directly, enduring it with his own flesh and blood, his body swaying slightly yet remaining unharmed.

In contrast, Ye Nanfeng, after striking with his sword, was instead forced back several steps by a powerful counterforce, causing numbness in the tiger’s mouth of his right hand.

”Brother Nanfeng, you don’t have to be so polite, no need to worry about hurting me,” Jiang Xiaofan said with an honest smile, lightly patting his chest, grinning, ”Again!”

Ye Nanfeng’s mouth twitched slightly. He wasn’t polite earlier, that move should have been enough to make even someone at the extreme limit of the Magnetic Condensation Realm—open with fifty meridians—hesitate to take it head-on.

This guy’s defense, just how monstrous is it?

”No more, no more!” Ye Nanfeng’s old face flushed, coughing dryly, he shamelessly said, ”Just now, I only used half my strength, but you being able to take it like this shows you are worthy of joining our Sword Team!”

”Really? Thank you, Brother Nanfeng!” Jiang Xiaofan jumped up excitedly, embracing Ye Nanfeng tightly, his arms wrapping around him so tightly that Ye Nanfeng’s face turned green instantly, and he shouted, ”Let go of me! Let go of me!”

”Oh, oh!” Jiang Xiaofan realized he was too excited, he was still in his Xuanwu transformation state, his strength was dozens of times greater than normal, and Ye Nanfeng hadn’t been guarded at all just now. If not for him having some disciple level, he would have probably gasped for air already.

”Sorry, Brother Nanfeng, hehe...”

Jiang Xiaofan quickly released the Xuanwu transformation, returning to his normal size, scratching the back of his head with embarrassment.

Ye Nanfeng swallowed hard, half his old life gone, looking vigilantly at Jiang Xiaofan, still scared, saying, ”Just stay a little further from me!”

”Hahaha!”

Immediately, the team members couldn’t help but burst into laughter, even Lee Bufan, who usually kept a stern face, had a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

This arrogant Ye Nanfeng, he should learn his lesson this time and not underestimate others again.

Ye Nanfeng’s face burned, but fortunately, he had a good mindset. Now that he knew Jiang Xiaofan’s strength, he naturally accepted this teammate. It’s better to be laughed at by teammates internally than to be humiliated outside.

”Alright, now no one should oppose Xiao Fan joining the Sword Team, right?” Goo Tengfeng smiled, asking everyone.

”No objections!” Gong Cheng nodded. From the defense perspective, Jiang Xiaofan was definitely not inferior to Goo Tengfeng, perhaps even surpassing him.

”I have no objections either.” Xue Xiaolin smiled, nodding slightly towards Jiang Xiaofan, saying gently, ”Xiao Fan, welcome to the East Courtyard Sword Team.”

”Thank you, thank you everyone!” Jiang Xiaofan clenched his fists, filled with excitement.

He once lacked confidence in passing the promotion assessment mid-semester, but now he had achieved what those so-called geniuses couldn’t, joining the premier team of the Sword Team as a Yellow Character Disciple!

Goo Tengfeng squinted his eyes, looking at Jiang Xiaofan. He had already seen the potential in Jiang Xiaofan. Currently, though, Jiang Xiaofan was a rather ”clumsy” player, his brute force and physical defense both formidable, but his main flaw was a lack of agility.

Imagine, no matter how strong his defense was, if the opponent ignored him, that strong defense would be meaningless.

And all that brute force, if it couldn’t hit anyone, was pointless.

So, in team sword competitions, Jiang Xiaofan could serve as an excellent shield. But if they faced a truly powerful Sword Team, his weaknesses would soon be revealed, turning that shield into a useless piece on the chessboard.

How to best utilize Jiang Xiaofan’s advantages and integrate him quickly into the Sword Team was the task his captain needed to tackle next.

With Jiang Xiaofan’s addition, Goo Tengfeng felt a bit more confident in capturing the championship of the Five Academy Sword Team competition.

”Xiao Fan, welcome,” Goo Tengfeng walked up to Jiang Xiaofan, asking seriously, ”The Five Academy Sword Team competition doesn’t have much time left. To integrate into this team, you’ll need to put in more effort than others, can you manage that?”

”I can!” Jiang Xiaofan clenched his fists, ”Brother said, the one thing I don’t lack is effort!”

”Hahaha, good!” Goo Tengfeng patted Jiang Xiaofan heavily on the shoulder, ”Very good!”

In Goo Tengfeng’s eyes, an incredibly intense light flashed.

This would be his last chance to participate in the Five Academy Sword Team competition with his team members. This time, he wanted to unleash all his passion and fervor on that Sword Fighting Platform, just to challenge the team known as the Imperial Myth—the Royal Sword Team!

That was also the dream goal of countless talented swordsmen.

...

Soon, Ling Feng returned from the General Mansion to the Heavenly Position Academy after three days.

And this day was also the agreed day between Yan Cangtian and the Alchemy Master Guild. He was to bring the mysterious alchemist he recommended to the Alchemy Master Guild to undergo an Alchemy Dao assessment, to prove whether the mysterious alchemist qualified to become the Honorary Guild Master of the Alchemy Master Guild!

”Kid, here’s an outfit for you, we’re going to be the Honorary Guild Master, yet you’re wearing the shabby clothes of the Heavenly Position Academy. That’s too disgraceful; it makes me look bad going out!”

Yan Cangtian, the old guy, really splurged this time, taking Ling Feng to the tailor shop for several expensive clothing sets, completely renewing his attire from head to toe.

Not just that, he even bought Ling Feng a Platinum Storage Ring, a true symbol of prestige. Compared to Ling Feng’s original Silver Spirit Ring, its space was ten times larger, and it could serve dual purposes!

Inside, besides regular space, there was a section just like a Flower Ring, for storing herbs and holding living things.

Although Ling Feng, owning the Five Elements Heavenly Palace, had no real need for a Platinum Storage Ring, seeing Yan Cangtian’s eager appearance, he couldn’t refuse it.

After all, for Yan Cangtian, a mere Platinum Storage Ring was just a trifle.

”Mm!” Seeing Ling Feng dressed in a Brocade Robe and Jade Boots, Yan Cangtian nodded with satisfaction, laughing, ”Truly, clothes make the man. With this attire, you could pass for a noble!”

Ling Feng rolled his eyes, muttering softly, ”Whether I deserve it is still undecided.”

Yan Cangtian stroked his long beard, smiling lightly, ”Why fear not passing when you casually show your skill? Remember, during the assessment, hold back a bit and don’t reveal your full abilities, lest you scare others. We must be low-key, right?”

”Uh...” Ling Feng quietly sweated, smiled, and said, ”Alright, I’ll ensure I hold back.”
