Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 350: Chapter 258: Arena Challenge

The eight members of Yun Kai were each devoured by a wisp of Soul Power by the Peace Beast and signed a contract.

This added a sense of connection between them, allowing them to sense each other’s presence within a certain range. This connection also enhanced their cohesion and sense of belonging to a greater extent than before.

At this moment, they could not only sense each other’s existence, but they also shared the same secret and a similarly brilliant future, which brought them closer together.

They were already the pride of heaven, endowed with excellent talents, refining rare and powerful Demon Spirits, and lacking no resources. Now, with Lin Feng’s ability to increase their success rate in absorbing Soul Skills, it is imaginable that in the not-too-distant future, when this alliance grows, it will definitely shock the entire nation, and even the world.

After leaving the room, the eight people, with mixed feelings, returned to their respective rooms.

”This contract is really special!”

In the room, Yang Ningbing held her phone in her right hand but didn’t make any moves for a long time.

Lin Feng’s potential was far more monstrous than she imagined.

Although she had no idea why Lin Feng possessed such abnormal abilities, she was sure that with this special ability and the Peace Contract, Lin Feng would gather the nation’s most outstanding talents and create an unprecedented alliance.

In the near future, even the Yang Family would be incomparable before this alliance.

Grandfather and Uncle Thirteen, do they not know what they have given up at this moment?

Regret was inevitable. Even though she knew Lin Feng’s secret, she couldn’t warn the family.

Whenever she had this thought, a stabbing pain would emanate from the depths of her soul—the power of the Peace Contract was taking effect.

....

Early morning.

Lin Feng woke up early, opened his phone, and checked the news. The massacre in Tianxing City dominated the front pages of major portal websites.

Tianxing City, with a population of over 300,000, according to the latest casualty statistics, saw more than a third of its residents dead or injured—that is, over 100,000 people. The scene was so gruesome that it hasn’t been publicly shown, but the controversy and aftermath are escalating.

The glory of Lin Feng’s seven-member blockade of a gate has been overshadowed by this massacre event.

As Lin Feng expected, in the comment sections, some so-called pacifists blamed Lin Feng’s seven people for this massacre incident.

Of course, this portion of netizens was minimal, and their remarks were unanimously ridiculed by other netizens.

Rational netizens knew the purpose of the Space Gate appearing in the Other-dimensional Space, and the number of people who died every year due to alien races.

A war of races is unavoidable, resolving it peacefully is impossible, and there’s no middle ground.

Of course, these discussions unavoidably affect one’s mood. When Lin Feng arrived at the hotel’s dining area, Zhan Tianyu, Yun Kai, Ye Qiu, Yang Ningbing, and Yu Qiao were having breakfast, and their expressions weren’t looking good.

”Lin Feng.”

”Brother Feng.”

Seeing Lin Feng appear, everyone greeted him one after another, with more respect and familiarity compared to before.

”Read the news?” Lin Feng asked.

Yu Qiao, stuffing his face with buns, indignantly cursed: ”A bunch of idiots online, making us out to be some bloodthirsty demons, killing for fun, and clamoring for peaceful coexistence with alien races. A bunch of fools, I really want to throw them into cities where alien races are and see if they’ll coexist peacefully with them.”

Zhan Tianyu agreed: ”Yeah, I watched the news for a while after going back, and these idiots made it so I hardly slept yesterday, how can there be such fools.”

Lin Feng chuckled, dismissively saying: ”It’s just netizens, in the virtual world, everyone can boast, everyone can curse, and there’s no need to be responsible. If they were really put on the battlefield, they’d each turn into cowards. If the alien races really invaded, they’d probably be the first to hope all the aliens would die.”

Compared to Yu Qiao and Zhan Tianyu, Yang Ningbing was much calmer: ”Fools are just a minority, intelligent people are the majority, why bother with fools.”

Lin Feng ate a meat bun imbued with Qi and Blood, saying: ”No need to read those comments, this matter is not over.”

”Not over?”

Yang Ningbing glanced at Lin Feng, asked surprisedly.

”Wait until you have absorbed one or two more Soul Skills, and until the national college glory battle is over, then we can talk.”

Seeing Lin Feng say this, Yang Ningbing didn’t ask anymore, just feeling that something big was about to happen again.

It’s recognized that Lin Feng is good at stirring things up.

”Zhan Tianyu, let’s head to your school in a bit.”

Zhan Tianyu was slightly taken aback, puzzled: ”Why go to Demon Star University? To sightsee?”

As one of the Three Heroic Academies, what’s there to sightsee?

Lin Feng shook his head: ”Same Tier Challenge.”

At these words, Zhan Tianyu was slightly stunned, and the bun in his hand fell on the table: ”Arena challenge?”

The challenge at the same tier is also known as an arena challenge.

”What did you spot at Demon Star University?”

Yang Ningbing asked curiously. She didn’t expect that just after sealing off a gate, Lin Feng was stirring things up again.

A challenge at the same tier, being invincible, is not something that can be won just by having strong strength.

Even Lin Feng is no exception.

Lin Feng is now in the Sixth Grade Divine Fist Realm, a senior graduating this year. The strongest are at Sixth Grade, meaning everyone from freshmen to seniors at Demon Star University can face him.

There’s a significant difference between a Demon Spirit Master and a Martial Artist.

Martial Artists with a high realm and strong power can usually win.

While a Demon Spirit Master’s variety of Soul Skills is numerous and changeable, no matter how strong the strength, if you happen to encounter a Demon Spirit or Soul Skill that restrains you, it’s helpless.

”I have my eyes on the Ninth Grade Six-winged Illusion Python Demon Spirit.”

Lin Feng said with a smile. He had been asking Dong Xiuxian to find the Six-winged Illusion Python for a long time but still found nothing. Although the Six-winged Illusion Python is not an Earth Chart Demon Spirit, its innate Soul Skill, Illusion, is a Divine Level Soul Skill, more precious and powerful compared to many Earth Chart Demon Spirits’ innate Soul Skills.

And Lin Feng knew that Demon Star University happened to have a Six-winged Illusion Python Demon Spirit hidden.

”You sure know how to choose, but this Soul Skill is indeed very suitable for your Dragon Fish.”

Zhan Tianyu nodded.

He was well aware of Lin Feng’s Dragon Fish’s innate skills, the power of Bubble Explosion is indeed significant, also accompanied by a Thunderbolt effect. However, unless it’s a suicide attack that gets close to the opponent, a simple Soul Skill can make the bubble explode prematurely and can’t approach.

If the Illusion Soul Skill were absorbed, then this weakness of the attack would also be compensated for.

”You’re not going to challenge the Great Wall after Demon Star, are you?”

Yang Ningbing asked.

”Naturally.” Lin Feng nodded.

After breakfast, when Lin Feng appeared at Demon Star University, with the news of his challenge spreading, Demon Star University was in an uproar. All classes were completely stopped. At this moment, who would still be in the mood for class? Even students adventuring at the Space Gate of an Other-dimensional Space hurried to return upon receiving the news; the students and mentors headed quickly to the Martial Arts Arena.

When they arrived at the Martial Arts Arena, looking at Lin Feng standing at its center, their faces were varied and they discussed it in whispers.

”He just sealed a gate yesterday, and today he’s challenging an arena, is he that arrogant?”

”What treasure did Lin Feng set his eyes on?”

”Same Tier Challenge, arena challenge, that’s impressive.”

”Isn’t Lin Feng just new to Sixth Grade? Why not wait a year or two until he reaches the Peak of Sixth Grade and absorbs a few more Soul Skills, the success rate would be higher, each Hero Academy only has one chance for such a challenge.”

”He’s too arrogant, people from Red Cloud University dare to challenge our school, let’s teach him a lesson.”

”In history, many have challenged the arena, but only two have succeeded, even Lin Feng might not succeed, right.”

”Who can say, he’s the one who killed Hai Wei and Tian Qing”

”Don’t say that, I actually hope he wins, I’m his fan, Wind God is majestic and domineering!”

”Whoa, you traitor!”

Under the watchful eye and discussion of thousands of teachers and students, Lin Feng stood at the center of the Martial Arts Arena with a very calm expression. He slowly spoke, his soft voice clearly spreading all over the arena: ”Time is limited, the first one.”
