Chapter 633: East Court's Sword Team's Strongest Lineup!

"As expected, the most insane one is still Brother Feng!"

Yu Sixian, bruised and battered, immediately got up with an indignant expression. "You call this just 'a little bit of improvement'? What happened to the basic trust between people!?"

"Seventy-nine, eighty, eighty-one..."

Lin Mochen quickly counted the number of meridian gates Ling Feng had opened in that instant. The dice in his hand had fallen to the ground in shock.

Eighty-five meridian gates... That's more than double of mine!

"You brat, you're the slyest of them all!" Gu Tengfeng glared at Ling Feng.

This guy is already this strong yet he still pretends to be modest!

However, in the next moment, Gu Tengfeng couldn't help but burst into laughter. The strongest lineup in the history of the East Court's sword team had finally emerged.

Ling Feng, Li Bufan, Jiang Xiaofan, and now Mu Qianxue, who had just joined the team...

With this lineup, they could easily sweep through any other sword team besides their own!

In fact, it seemed like he, the captain, might be the one dragging the team down now.

Of course, Gu Tengfeng's vast experience and commanding ability were exactly what this team of newcomers needed the most.

"Li Yunting!" Gu Tengfeng clenched his fist tightly, secretly vowing in his heart:

This time, I'll lead my team to defeat yours completely!

After showcasing some of his strength, Ling Feng quickly closed his Primordial Locks, his aura dropping sharply. To most people, it would seem like he had only opened around thirty or forty meridian gates. They could never guess that he actually had over eighty.

"

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

This is incredible!"

Ye Nanfeng seemed to realize something and said in a deep voice, "With Ling Feng's number of meridian gates, combined with Junior Sister Mu's abilities, the two together could reach almost ninety meridian gates. My goodness!"

"There's still six months until the final match. If Brother Feng breaks through during that time, could he reach a hundred meridian gates?"

Lin Mochen's eyes twitched wildly.

A hundred meridian gates... No one in the history of the Tianbai Empire has ever reached such a level. No one knows what would happen if one were to open a hundred meridian gates.

If Ling Feng could do it even once, even if only temporarily, it would be an unprecedented miracle!

"

Hehe,

who cares about the empire legend! Brother Feng, our East Court sword team is going to take down that Royal Sword Team! We'll beat that self-righteous Yan Jinghong so hard he won't know what hit him!"

Yu Sixian chuckled. "You guys go ahead. I'll be in the audience cheering you on!"

"Everyone's progress has far exceeded my expectations. The Five Courts' Sword Team Grand Competition is coming up soon. We must use this month to train and synchronize properly."

Gu Tengfeng's spirits soared. He had never felt so close to becoming the strongest sword team in the empire.

After that, Gu Tengfeng explained some of his plans to everyone. Considering that most of the team had just returned from the Fearsome Forest, he didn't drag it out for too long and quickly dismissed everyone to rest.

The real synchronization training would officially begin after the school term started.

After the meeting dispersed, the team members went their separate ways. Ling Feng accompanied Mu Qianxue back to her place.

On the way back, Mu Qianxue suddenly remarked, "Big Brother, I really envy you. You've made so many good friends."

"Those guys,

huh.

" Ling Feng smiled slightly. "I'm indeed lucky to have met them."

Originally, Ling Feng had joined the sword team just to fight with more experts and hone his skills. But as time went on, he realized he had become a part of this team. Even when facing a formidable opponent like Yan Jinghong, these teammates still chose to stand by him.

"Boss Gu, Xiaofan, Bufan, Sister Xiaolin... even Mochen and the others, they're all good people," Ling Feng said with a faint smile. "You'll see in time that they're trustworthy friends and partners for life. And I'll also be your friend forever.

"Well, here we are at Tianqiao Pavilion."

Ling Feng stopped at the entrance and handed Mu Qianxue her black kitten while smiling slightly. "I'll head back now."

"

Mhmm, mhmm.

" Mu Qianxue nodded, gently stroking Ye Yi's head. She softly said, "Ye Yi, say goodbye to Big Brother."

"

Meow~!

" Ye Yi licked Ling Feng's palm, looking at him with a hint of reluctance.

"You little one, you haven't grown at all in half a year. You need to eat well," Ling Feng said as he gently patted its tiny head. He then nodded to Mu Qianxue and turned to leave.

Tuoba Yan was waiting not far away.

Watching Ling Feng's silhouette gradually disappear, Mu Qianxue bit her lip and murmured to herself, "Friends for life, huh? It's a pity that I'll have to face my destiny alone in the end. Big Brother Ling..."

"

Meow...

"

Ye Yi climbed onto Mu Qianxue's shoulder and patted her head in a very human-like way, as if trying to comfort her.

"Thank you, Ye Yi."

Mu Qianxue gently held the little black cat in her arms. Only when Ling Feng's figure had completely vanished from her sight did she turn and walk back into her garden.

...

The next morning marked the beginning of a new semester at Tianwei Academy.

As per tradition, the new students would head to the training ground to meet their mentors and instructors.

According to the news from Wen Tingguang, the envoy delegation from the Tianyang Empire would arrive at the imperial capital in two days, so Ling Feng didn’t have to miss meeting his new mentors and instructors.

Early in the morning, the students from the various imperial gardens gathered together, and Ling Feng was no exception. However, Su Hongxiu was up even earlier than him and had already prepared breakfast.

In the main hall, a few shameless people had come to mooch off the meal!

"Wow, Miss Hongxiu's cooking is just so good!"

Wang Yishan downed a bowl of phoenix fruit porridge in one gulp, patting his belly and shouting, "Miss Hongxiu, another bowl!"

"

Hehe,

I'd like another bowl too."

Jiang Xiaofan scratched the back of his head a bit sheepishly. In fact, he and Wang Yishan, the two big eaters, had already each devoured seven bowls!

"You guys are going to wear poor Hongxiu out!"

Ling Feng rolled his eyes. Ever since they had tasted Su Hongxiu's exceptional cooking, these guys had been coming over to mooch food regularly. Wang Yishan especially was like a food-eating machine!

"Brother Feng, I'm just in a bad mood! The only way to deal with it is to eat my feelings." Wang Yishan grabbed a few buns from the table while shouting, "Just thinking that our instructor won't be that cold-faced monster anymore makes me feel down!"

"Instructor Leng,

huh.

"

Ling Feng shook his head with a smile. Although Leng Jianfeng had been incredibly strict with the students and had a sharp tongue, everyone knew that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Thinking about how Leng Jianfeng would no longer be their instructor made Ling Feng feel a bit sad.

As for Wang Yishan, he loved to bicker with Leng Jianfeng and always ended up getting the short end of the stick. Unexpectedly, he actually missed Leng Jianfeng now. What a total masochist!
