"Hm! His talent is not bad. He is a disciple of your sect, Who is he?" The man from the empire couldn't help but asked Shen Jiaohao when saw the battle of Feng Yun and Xiang Gen.
"Senior, his name is Feng Yun. Umm, he is a personal disciple of Elder Fan." Shen Jiaohao replied humbly.
"Oh!" This time man and woman both showed surprised expressions when they heard this. Fan Xingjuan's first impression was not good on envoys, so they certainly remembered her.
"Feng Yun, isn't he a weapon refiner?" At this time, an elder of True Fire Palace speak out when he saw Feng Yun on the stage. He was surprised by Feng Yun's performance a little. Feng Yun's name was famous in the True Fire Palace due to the ancient refining technique that he showed in the refining competition of True Fire Palace.
"Yes, he is, but he also has great talent in martial arts." Shen Jiaohao didn't deny and said.
"Oh, weapon refiner, what rank?" The woman envoy curiously asked.
"A fourth-ranked weapon refiner, but that was months ago, I think he should have reached the fifth rank by now." The weapon hall master replied.
"Fifth Ranked weapon refiner before age of 25! You must be jesting?"
Everyone was surprised, the woman envoy couldn't help but exclaim slightly and said with a frown.
"I'm serious. According to his refining talent, he should have no problem reaching the fifth rank. The people of True Fire Palace already seen his refining talent during the last refining competition where Feng Yun defeated all their refining geniuses." Weapon hall master Mu Dong replied.
Hearing the taunt of Mu Dong the face of True Fire Palace's sect master became a little dark, it was a naked slap on the face of True Fire Palace, he was even angrier that he can't do anything to change it, Feng Yun really did defeat all of their young geniuses in the last competition.
An outsider won first place in the refining competition held by True Fire Palace, it was surprising. The people couldn't help but look at True Fire Palace's master questioningly.
"He is just lucky to obtain ancient refining method otherwise he would never able to defeat our disciples." The Sect Master of True Fire Palace snorted.
"Ancient refining method?" This time, the both man and woman envoy were also surprised, as being experts of the big empire they have obviously had some knowledge of ancient refining, the man curiously speaks out, "Is this true?"
Mu Dong replied slowly, "Yes! Senior, He has a fortuitous encounter. But I don't know the details." Feng Yun already exposed the ancient refining method in public during the refining competition, so there was no use in hiding now.
"Hm! Great, I didn't expect, we would find a gem here. With his talent, he would surely make a name for himself in a few years." The man envoy said with a smile. 'I have to recruit this boy, he can become a good asset for the black tortoise empire in the future.' He thought in his mind.
At this time, the expression of Lin Clan's patriarch became gloomy. He never expected Feng Yun turned out to be a monstrous refining genius. No matter if it was an alchemist or artifacts refiner both were treated well compared to others. With Feng Yun's refining talent, the envoy would surely pick him for bringing back to the Black Turtle Empire. At that time, it would become almost impossible for them to snatch the golden dragon spear from Feng Yun.
He couldn't help but started thinking of possible ways to take back the spear from Feng Yun.
"Sect Master Shen, what do you think? Who will win?" The man envoy curiously asked.
"Feng Yun for sure!" Shen Jiahao replied confidently.
"Sect Master Shen, don't dream in daylight!"
"Feng Yun might be a genius weapon refiner, but he can't defeat Xiang Gen in combat." Sect Master of True Fire Palace said.
"He can! I have faith in him!" Shen Jiahao replied.
"You are overconfident in your disciple. Xiang Gen is the strongest disciple of True Fire Palace, his full combat strength comparable to a low heaven profound realm cultivator, while your disciple is only High Sky Profound Realm cultivator." True Fire Palace's master said confidently. Feng Yun crushed their disciples in the weapon refining, he refuse to believe that he can defeat their strongest disciple too.
"It's not that I am underestimating your disciple's ability, but I have strong confidence in Feng Yun. In terms of talent, his talents ranked even higher than Yang Jian." Sect Master Shen Jiaohao said calmly.
At this time, others were also surprised a little when he said that Feng Yun's talent was higher than Yang Jian's. If it was true, doesn't mean, Feng Yun's talent was superior to every other young genius here.
His refining talent was alone enough to make him exceptional, adding with his martial art talent, he would become a heaven-defying existence.
'Overconfident my ass! This boy is a monster in human skin. I won't be much surprised even if Feng Yun won the competition.' Shen Jiaohao thought in his mind. Before he might not have had this level of confidence in Feng Yun, but he heard few stories of Feng Yun related to battle inside the ancient battlefield.
Single-handedly defeating a remnant soul of the Mid-Heaven Profound Realm, even Yang Jian can't do it. Feng Yun always made miracles in the past, he had anticipation this time too.
As they were discussing, the match reached a very intense stage. Xiang Gen has become irritated by Feng Yun's counterattacks, his all attacks were being suppressed by Feng Yun easily, he finally used his ace card.
The beast transformation technique! The secret technique of True Fire Palace.
A hundred meters big sky-blue flame flood dragon formed in the sky that looked even more impressive than Hou Xianbo's beast transformation. Feng Yun looked like just a tiny ant in front of a massive fire flood dragon.
"This is an interesting skill!" The man envoy muttered lightly.
This time, the sect master of the True Fire Palace proudly said out, "It is the secret technique of True Fire Palace, it needed spiritual fire to practice. This technique is extremely difficult to cultivate, only a few disciples have been able to cultivate this technique successfully, and Xiang Gen has practiced it to the highest degree among all of them."
"Sect Master Shen Jiaohao, do you still think that Feng Yun can defeat my disciples?"
"I do!"
"Then just watch carefully see my Xiang Gen is going to defeat your disciple." True Fire Palace's master snorted and placed his attention on the battle arena.
'Nirvana Fire Wheel!'
Facing the hundred-meter flood dragon, Feng Yun also used his best skill, his spirit qi mixed with demonic flame gushed out from his body flew into the air, soon it metamorphosed into a hundred meters big fire wheel in the sky.
"This technique is also not bad!" The woman envoy muttered slowly with a light surprise after seeing the nirvana fire wheel in the sky.
"Let me see whose fire is stronger." Feng Yun muttered as the nirvana fire wheel moved toward the incoming flood dragon.
Booom!!!!
With a colossal bang, both fire wheel and fire flood dragon smashed into each other. If it wasn't for the battle arena being protected by array formations and the light shield blocking the residue fire spirit qi and shockwaves from spreading, the entire stadium would reduce to dust.
The battle attracted everyone's attention.
"Holy fuck, that was insane!"
"Are they really sky profound realm cultivators?"
"Those attacks certainly transcendent the limit of a Sky Profound Realm."
The crowd started exclaiming and shouting with thrill.
"It's fire on the entire arena, who won?"
"I think it would be Xiang Gen!"
"I also think so!"
"No, I think the new guy would win!"
Right now, the entire battle arena was covered by the two types of flames, Feng Yun and Xiang Gen's figures were nowhere to be seen. The viewers couldn't help but speak out.
"Look the fire extinguishing. We will know who is won soon."
Everyone's eyes contracted slightly as they concentrated on the battle arena. Finally, the flames extinguished slowly, the shadow of two figures slowly came to view.
One person was lying on the ground while the other person was standing in front of him.
"That's Xiang Gen, he's laying on the floor!"
"Holy fuck, the new guy won!"
"But what happened to Xiang Gen? Seeing his condition, it seemed he was beaten badly just now."
The crowd exploded instantly, shouts reverberate in the entire stadium one after another.
"That's retribution!" Feng Yun said while he looked at Xiang Gen who was lying on the ground right now in heavily battered condition before turning around to walk.. Feng Yun takes advantage of the moment when flame blocked sight of the crowd and beat down Xiang Gen to his heart content.
