“Wipe, brother, you cannot really be only Dragon Transformation Second Level, can you?”
Xia Yan gaped at Chu Feng, blurting out what everyone else wanted to ask.
“Yes.”
Chu Feng nodded.
At first he had felt a little embarrassed, but once his strength was truly revealed to all, the embarrassment faded.
Perhaps because Chu Feng was naturally thick-skinned, he actually found it rather amusing that his strength had provoked such a reaction.
Others, however, did not see it that way.
None of them could understand how someone with Chu Feng’s strength had obtained a place.
“Brother, how did you get in? You did not sneak in through the back door, did you?”
“Are you a relative of Lord Black Fiend?”
Xia Yan really dared to say anything. He asked without any restraint.
“Ahem, perhaps it was luck.”
Chu Feng said.
“Nonsense. How could anyone rely on luck to pass that kind of assessment?”
“How exactly did you get in? Come on, confess.”
The people from the Gongsun family were even more displeased. They glared at Chu Feng. Their tone was not joking or merely questioning; it was interrogation.
After all, if Chu Feng had truly slipped in improperly, it meant he had taken a place that rightfully belonged to a Gongsun family junior.
That was the reason for their displeasure.
“Slip in?”
Chu Feng smiled faintly, then said, “Are you questioning Lord Black Fiend’s insight?”
“You!!!”
The Gongsun family genius turned livid. He had intended to target Chu Feng and vent some anger on behalf of the eliminated Gongsun juniors.
He had not expected Chu Feng not only to show no fear but to drag Old Devil Black Fiend into it.
Old Devil Black Fiend was such a figure. How could he dare question him?
At this moment, he suddenly regretted questioning Chu Feng in that way. He had trapped himself and now found the situation extremely awkward.
“Focus on the assessment. No more talking.”
Suddenly, an elder’s voice rang out from among the Gongsun family group.
It was an old man with a full head of white hair yet a sturdy build, exuding great authority.
He was the head of the Gongsun family.
The Gongsun family head appeared to be reprimanding that genius, but in reality he was bailing him out.
“No harm done. Young people should speak their minds. That is what makes them young.”
Old Devil Black Fiend smiled. He showed no offence at all. Then the testing continued.
Six of the seven Gongsun family geniuses had already stepped onto the platform.
Their strength was not as overwhelming as Chu Feng had imagined.
Of these six, three were Dragon Transformation Fourth Level, while the other three were Dragon Transformation Third Level.
From this, it was clear that the Gongsun family had deliberately sent their three stronger geniuses to seize places in the Pregnant Object Forest.
Unfortunately, their plans had been thwarted. All three geniuses they sent had failed and returned empty-handed.
This meant the Gongsun family had wasted three Dragon Transformation Fourth Level boundary spirit masters for nothing.
…
Finally, the seventh genius from the Gongsun family took the stage.
The moment he leapt up, Chu Feng noticed that the gazes of the older generation powerhouses in the stands all changed.
They were gazes filled with great anticipation.
Buzz.
Buzz.
Buzz.
Buzz.
Buzz.
Five rune light dragons emerged in succession, revealing his strength.
He was actually a Dragon Transformation Fifth Level boundary spirit master.
Dragon Transformation Fifth Level. That was power comparable to a First Rank Martial Venerable!!!
“Worthily Gongsun Yuntian. He has already reached Dragon Transformation Fifth Level.”
Xia Yan beside Chu Feng sighed in admiration.
“Oh, so he is Gongsun Yuntian?”
“No wonder.”
Chu Feng could not help muttering softly in surprise.
Now he finally understood why everyone had looked forward so much to this person stepping onto the testing platform.
Song Yun had once told Chu Feng that among the boundary spirit masters of Nine Souls Heaven River, there were two exceptionally strong genius juniors.
They were Zhuge Feiluan of the Zhuge family and Gongsun Yuntian of the Gongsun family.
Both had been in seclusion for many years.
He had not expected that Gongsun Yuntian had not only emerged from seclusion but had reached Dragon Transformation Fifth Level.
Dragon Transformation Fifth Level. This strength was enough to lord over all present.
At this moment, Chu Feng felt relieved that he had no interest in Old Devil Black Fiend’s granddaughter.
Otherwise, seeing Gongsun Yuntian’s strength would have been utterly demoralising.
“Brother, you cannot possibly not even recognise Gongsun Yuntian, right?”
Xia Yan looked at Chu Feng in astonishment. Though Chu Feng had spoken softly, this fellow had still heard him.
“Oh, right, you are from Ancestral Martial Heaven River.”
“But even if you are from Ancestral Martial Heaven River, as a boundary spirit master you are far too ignorant.”
“Brother, this will not do. You are a bit of a frog at the bottom of a well.”
Xia Yan laughed heartily while patting Chu Feng on the shoulder.
He said all this openly. Everyone present heard it clearly.
Upon learning that Chu Feng did not even recognise Gongsun Yuntian, all sorts of complex gazes immediately fell upon him.
The gazes from the Gongsun family in particular were extremely displeased.
This left Chu Feng quite helpless.
This fellow was clearly drawing hatred onto him.
“Young friend Yuntian, you truly are an outstanding junior among the boundary spirit masters of our Nine Souls Heaven River.”
“However, do not assume that because you are Dragon Transformation Fifth Level, this marriage recruitment contest is already yours.”
“The assessment I have prepared for you is not as simple as you might think.”
After saying this, Old Devil Black Fiend raised his arm. A golden light shot into the sky.
The radiance grew increasingly dazzling, covering an ever larger area.
It turned out to be an object. An enormous palace that blotted out the sky emerged.
“It is actually the Thousand Transformations Illusion Palace.”
“This should be interesting.”
Looking at the palace obscuring the void, Xia Yan beside Chu Feng exclaimed again.
“Brother, what is this Thousand Transformations Illusion Palace?”
Chu Feng asked curiously. As the saying went, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Understanding this Thousand Transformations Illusion Palace would certainly not be a bad thing.
“I told you you are a frog in a well. You do not even recognise Lord Black Fiend’s treasure.”
“If you want to know, of course I can tell you, but I will not do it for free. I have one condition.”
Xia Yan said with a sly smile.
“A condition?”
Chu Feng found it baffling. Just asking a question, and now they had to negotiate terms?
Though he thought Xia Yan rather odd, Chu Feng still asked, “Go on, what is it?”
“Brother, let us team up.”
Xia Yan said this via secret voice transmission.
