Chapter 349: Come on, Bark For Me!

"Whoever wants to see me should come in person!"

Ling Feng completely ignored the green-robed man in front of him. With a swift movement, he effortlessly evaded the group surrounding him and continued towards the Tianshu East Court.

What an arrogant kid!

The green-robed man's eyes narrowed.

No wonder Ling Feng dared to humiliate Liu Shengjie. This brat doesn't even take Xuanyuan Ao seriously.

Xuanyuan Ao was the captain of the West Court's sword team with a position as prestigious as Gu Tengfeng's in the East Court. In terms of strength, he was on par with Gu Tengfeng.

But Ling Feng dared to treat the captain of the West Court's sword team as if he were nothing. His audacity could only be described as reckless beyond belief!

What the green-robed man didn't know was that besides having Gu Tengfeng, the East Court's sword team captain, behind him, Ling Feng was also backed by Yan Cangtian, who stood above all the academy’s rules. Even Tong Chengtai, a director-level figure, was no match for Yan Cangtian.

For Ling Feng, these little squabbles among students were nothing to worry about. If they wanted to stand up for Liu Shengjie, they'd have to prove themselves with strength!

"Kid, I'll give you one more chance. Come with me quietly, or I'll make you!" The green-robed man shouted angrily at Ling Feng's back.

"

Pfft!

"

Without turning around, Ling Feng continued walking, completely ignoring the man's threats.

"Damn it!" The green-robed man trembled with rage. Gritting his teeth, he drew his longsword and lunged at Ling Feng.

"Get lost!" Ling Feng seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He spun around and delivered a powerful kick to the green-robed man's face. With a loud "

thud,

" the man flew back like a kicked ball, crashing into a towering tree and snapping it in half before slamming into the ground and leaving a deep crater.

The kick had disfigured the man’s once handsome face, knocking out several teeth. He lay on the ground, dazed, gasping like a beaten dog.

"Wu... Senior Brother Wu!" The lackeys who had followed the green-robed man rushed to his side, pulling him up from the ground. One of them looked at Ling Feng with a trembling voice saying, "Y-You just wait!"

With that, they hoisted the green-robed man up and quickly retreated.

If their leader was so easily defeated by a single kick from Ling Feng, these small fry had no courage to confront him.

Ling Feng shrugged nonchalantly. If Xuanyuan Ao wanted to cause trouble, so be it.

One comes, one gets beaten!

Two come, a pair gets beaten!

...

Upon returning to the Tianshu East Court, Ling Feng found the place completely deserted; it seemed he was the first to come back.

Ling Feng hesitated, considering whether he should visit Yan Cangtian to discuss the Five Elements Heavenly Palace he had acquired.

"Ling Feng, our captain is here! Show yourself!"

Just as Ling Feng was deep in thought, a thunderous voice erupted from outside the Tianshu East Court, echoing clearly into his ears.

Such a powerful presence!

Ling Feng's eyes narrowed.

Xuanyuan Ao

is indeed an interesting opponent.

Raising his eyebrows, Ling Feng strode towards the entrance. Outside the Tianshu East Court, a large crowd of Tianwei Academy students had gathered. Most were from the West Court while a few yellow-tier students from the East Court who were also there quickly retreated, intimidated by the imposing scene.

At the forefront of the crowd stood a young man in golden robes who was around twenty years old and exuded an aura of authority and strength comparable to that of Gu Tengfeng, an expert from the East Court.

Ling Feng could tell that if it came to a fight, Xuanyuan Ao might not be quite as formidable as Gu Tengfeng.

However, Xuanyuan Ao was still an extraordinary genius who had opened over fifty-five meridian gates. Given his current strength, unless Ling Feng used the Heaven-Slaying Sword Art for an insta-kill, even with the support of the Qi-Refining Lock and the Eight Desolations Body Refinement Art, he wouldn't be able to match Xuanyuan Ao.

It seemed the time had come to seek the Tianbai Emperor's help to cultivate the second Primordial Lock.

Standing beside Xuanyuan Ao were several men with equally formidable auras, glaring at Ling Feng with intense hostility.

These were members of the West Court's sword team, and two of them had even opened over fifty meridian gates!

What a big scene!

Ling Feng's eyes twitched slightly. If a fight broke out, he might suffer some losses. Fortunately, his roommates from the East Court weren't around, so he didn't need to worry about them being caught in the conflict.

"You must think highly of yourself!" Xuanyuan Ao frowned, staring coldly at Ling Feng. "You dared to make me come to see you in person!"

"Enough talking!"

A man in black robes drew his longsword and pointed it at Ling Feng, shouting angrily, "You left Junior Brother Liu in such a miserable state. You deserve to die!"

The black-robed man had opened fifty-two meridian gates, and his overwhelming aura almost solidified as it surged towards Ling Feng. It appeared that he intended to crush Ling Feng with sheer presence.

Simultaneously, the other members of the West Court's sword team unleashed their auras, bearing them down on Ling Feng in a show of intimidation.

Ling Feng smiled lightly while activating the Lingtian Sword Force without a trace. Facing the combined pressure of the entire West Court sword team, he knew he couldn't afford to be careless.

As the Lingtian Sword Force unfolded, it effectively repelled the auras of the West Court sword team members. Ling Feng remained composed, his expression calm as he said, "So, Liu Shengjie can try to ambush me, but I can't retaliate?"

"Unbelievable!"

The eyes of the sword team members narrowed in surprise. They hadn't expected Ling Feng to remain unaffected under their collective pressure.

The group of bystanding students watching were equally stunned. "He’s completely ignoring the combined force of the West Court sword team!"

"This is insane! He’s only opened about twenty meridian gates, right?"

"No wonder Senior Brother Liu ended up in such a miserable state after facing him."

The news quickly spread through the imperial capital. Liu Shengjie’s defeat had become a tale of disgrace, a stain on his reputation he would never live down.

Xuanyuan Ao's eyes also flashed with surprise. Instead of anger, a faint smile appeared on his face. "Given how badly you humiliated Liu Shengjie, I should make you pay double. But your talent... it makes me reluctant to waste such potential."

Xuanyuan Ao stood with his hands behind his back with a condescending gaze in his eyes. Suddenly, an invisible pressure surged from him, transforming him into a colossal ancient dragon that dominated the landscape. It felt as if everything in the world should bow down to him alone.

"I’m offering you a great opportunity!"

Xuanyuan Ao's voice was cold and commanding. "Leave the East Court sword team and submit to me. Become my dog!"

According to Tianwei Academy's rules, yellow-tier students could apply to transfer between courts if they wished. With Liu Shengjie’s fall, recruiting someone as talented as Ling Feng would be a significant boost for the West Court sword team and a severe blow to the East Court’s.

This offer was far more strategic than simply destroying Ling Feng.

"

Hahaha...

"

Ling Feng laughed instead of getting angry. He looked at Xuanyuan Ao with utmost contempt and said loudly, "I’m quite content being a person, thank you. I have no plans to be anyone’s dog. If you, Captain Xuanyuan Ao, are so keen on it, why don’t you give it a try? Come on, bark for me a couple of times."

Everyone’s faces changed color at Ling Feng’s audacity. He was actually daring enough to tell Xuanyuan Ao, the captain of the West Court sword team, to bark like a dog!
