60 Fetch Zhao Feng (1/2)
Zhao Linlong’s performance was indeed great. Throwing away the fact that he had the highest cultivation, every skill that he showed was perfect. His Spatial Cloud Finger was now even better than what it was at the Summit, and his Shadow Step had closed in on perfection.
Zhao Linlong started to work even harder after his defeat and under the pressure, his strength had increased. Even some sixth ranks of the older generation weren’t his opponent.
“Not bad.” The head of the sect and elders nodded their heads. From their point of view, Zhao Linlong’s strength was indeed top tier in Sun Feather City. They turned to Master Ye.
“Master Ye, how do you feel…?” Zhao Tiancang couldn’t help but ask.
Once his stepson Zhao Linlong was chosen by Guanjun Palace, his future days couldn’t be estimated. It would only be a matter of time before Sun Feather City was controlled by the Zhao sect. The other elders looked on expectantly.
“So – so.” The words were like a hammer that heavily hit Zhao Tiancang.
_How could this be… so-so?_
“So-so?” Zhao Linlong’s face turned red.
Anger surged in his heart. Being the genius with the highest cultivation within Sun Feather City, he had only received a so-so review?
“Oh yes! Linlong! Didn’t you gain something from the partial Holy martial art?” the sect leader prodded him.
Partial Holy martial art!
Yes!
Eyes lit up amongst the elders.
“Hehe.” Some interest was finally visible in Master Ye’s eyes.
“Yes, father.” Zhao Linlong took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
Suddenly, his aura changed.
_Hu~_
At this moment, Zhao Linlong had the aura that Xin Wuheng had on the summit day, but much fainter, only around one-tenth of Wuheng's.
“Wind Flowing Stance!”
_Hua!_
An unseen wind wave swept up everything in a radius of several meters. This casual swipe could seriously injure most cultivators under the seventh rank.
“Good, good!” The elders couldn’t help but applaud.
This was what they truly felt at heart, they weren’t acting. Their insights gained into the partial Holy martial art weren’t much stronger than Zhao Linlong’s. After their cheering, they once again looked expectantly at Master Ye.
There shouldn’t be any problems this time, right? A faint smile appeared on Zhao Linlong’s face.
“This is your so-called insight from a partial Holy martial art? The power of it isn’t even stronger than your Spatial Cloud Finger! You haven’t even touched the corner of a Holy martial art yet! Useless!” the cold, expressionless voice sounded within the room.
Instantly dead silence fell.
_How was this possible?_
Zhao Linlong felt somewhat dissatisfied. However, the man sitting there was one of the country’s few ninth ranks.
Ninth rank of the Martial Path!
Even if they were unsatisfied, they didn’t have any courage to rebuke him.
“The genius I am looking for… is not him,” Master Ye said harshly.
On the day of the summit, the two Guanjun Corpsmen didn’t know Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng’s names, but they had seen their potential and talents. The potential of those two were ranked in the top five of Guanjun Province. Zhao Linlong’s performance wasn’t even able to reach the top twenty.
“Master Ye, Linlong’s cultivation is the highest amongst the younger generation,” Zhao Tiancang said helplessly.
At this moment, the other elders realized who Master Ye truly wanted, but they had confined that person. This was the reason that Zhao Tiancang didn’t mention him.
A few seconds of silence followed.
“Call all the youngsters of the fifth rank or higher here,” Master Ye ordered.
Zhao Tiancang immediately did what he was ordered to do.
