Divine Martial Continent.
Dragon King Hall.
The hall was majestic, with a golden pinnacle gleaming brightly. An elder stood on the floor made of the finest white jade, holding a piece of paper, bowing his head as if reporting something.
Opposite the elder, on a high platform, there was a massive throne inlaid with gemstones. On the throne sat a young man dressed in a golden robe, with a single horn on his head, eyes as sharp as blades, and a robust physique.
"After disappearing for two years, there is finally news?" Listening to the report from his subordinate, the young man couldn't help but stand up.
The young man stood about 2.45 meters tall, his strong body made him look like a small giant.
If Lin Feng saw this, he would probably recognize at a glance that this young man was Hai Wei, whom he had encountered in the Demon Spirit Realm.
The grandson of the invincible Dragon King.
At this moment, Hai Wei's eyes revealed an uncontainable excitement.
Like the thrill of seeing a prey.
Two years is not long nor short, enough to make many things forgotten, but the boy who injured him, and even almost killed him, he never forgot.
And he often thought about it.
Not only did he often think about it, but he specifically sent people to Red Cloud University to collect information about Lin Feng and observe his actions.
Now, after waiting for two years, he finally received news about Lin Feng.
"Returning and immediately participating in the National University Glory Battle. It seems his strength has increased a lot."
Hai Wei naturally knew about the National University Glory Battle. He even had a Human Race phone and tablet. Although the Divine Martial Continent didn't have a network, as long as it was pre-downloaded in the Human Realm, he could watch it.
Hai Wei had watched videos of the competition. Some top-level geniuses, in terms of talent and strength, were not much inferior to him. Even if he encountered them, he would have to treat them with caution.
Hai Wei liked to study the culture and technology of the Human Race.
This was knowledge that many alien races had to understand.
After all, that was the world they would invade in the future.
Electric lights, telephones, computers, and the internet, these mysterious technologies didn't exist on the Divine Martial Continent, and Hai Wei was very interested in them.
He even knew some of Hua Country's language and some letters and numbers.
However, compared to the culture and technology of the Human Race, he preferred studying human geniuses,
because those people would become his opponents in the future.
Lin Feng, Qi Wu, Zhou Chengfeng, Yun Kai, and Ye Qiu... all could become his opponents in the future. As for some geniuses from the Western world, those were what the Western Continent needed to pay attention to.
"The Fourth Soul Skill? Did you say Lin Feng's Clone Soul Skill is the fourth soul skill?" Hai Wei asked in surprise.
"Yes, according to the intelligence source, this is what Lin Feng personally said."
"You can retreat for now, continue to pay attention to Lin Feng's actions, and report at any time."
Hai Wei waved his hand, signaling his subordinate to leave.
"Interesting, truly very interesting. That Clone Soul Skill was his second soul skill absorbed in the Demon Spirit Realm, and the first soul skill was a Mirror Image. It seems I was right, this Lin Feng has a secret, a big secret."
After his subordinate left, Hai Wei was a bit excited, his eyes revealing a hint of curiosity and desire.
Back then, when Lin Feng released the Clone Soul Skill, he knew Lin Feng was hiding a secret.
Because even he had only absorbed one Purple Gold Soul Skill, and that was his fifth soul skill.
His first to fourth soul skills were all Golden Soul Skills.
And Lin Feng absorbed a Purple Gold Soul Skill as his first soul skill.
Inherent talent?
Hai Wei didn't believe it.
He was very confident about his talent, even if Lin Feng was stronger than him, it was impossible to reach that level.
Even his grandfather, the invincible Dragon King, couldn't absorb a Purple Gold Soul Skill as the first soul skill.
Hai Wei looked at his slave, Zhang Shengyuan, also a human genius, and asked: "Zhang Shengyuan, can you guess why Lin Feng deliberately hid this fact."
"It's unprecedented to absorb a Purple Gold Soul Skill as the first soul skill, too shocking. If it were the fourth soul skill, although rare, some super geniuses have succeeded. It's not impossible."
Zhang Shengyuan felt a tinge of worry, but facing Hai Wei's gaze, he didn't hesitate to answer.
He knew Hai Wei was very interested in Lin Feng.
Not just because Lin Feng had almost killed him once, but because he was interested in Lin Feng's secret.
He even wanted to seize this secret.
Although this was just a speculation of Hai Wei.
But it was because of this speculation, in the Demon Spirit Realm, he killed all 16 aliens who collected demon spirits.
Didn't leave a single survivor.
All to conceal Lin Feng's information.
Hiding this secret!
"Lin Feng cannot refine high-level demon spirits, yet he can have a First Grade demon spirit absorb a Purple Gold Soul Skill. Wouldn't you say this secret is very interesting?"
Hai Wei could no longer wait to meet Lin Feng.
In the past, he wanted to find Lin Feng.
But Lin Feng disappeared for two years. He couldn't get any information, and there was nowhere to search.
Now, Lin Feng has returned.
He believes that soon, he will meet Lin Feng.
By then, Lin Feng's secrets, or treasures, will have a new owner.
....
In the Yang Family in Shangjing.
In a room, the seven elders of the Yang Race, including the Clan Leader, were holding a meeting, and the subject of discussion was Lin Feng.
The matter at Red Cloud University had already spread; although it was just a challenge among the young, it concerned the national honor battle of the universities, and was not a trivial matter.
As for Lin Feng's identity, it had already spread throughout the Yang Family.
"Clan Leader, Lin Feng is your own grandson, why didn't you let him return to the family back then? Now, he is trying to take that girl Ning Bing's position!"
The speaker was an elder, who was Yang Ningbing's grandfather, and thus, he was most anxious about this matter.
He was very worried that his precious granddaughter's position would be taken.
"Exactly, such a super talent, why was he left unchecked, allowed to roam outside so freely?"
"Now, the most important thing is to quickly have Lin Feng publicly announce the withdrawal of this challenge, or if the media finds out, it will become a real joke."
Many elders were discussing.
Today, upon hearing about Lin Feng's identity, they were all shocked and surprised.
Who could have thought that the former top scorer in the college entrance exam was an illegitimate child of the Yang Race left outside?
And the child of Yang Qing, no less.
Yang Qing was already a genius of the clan; although not yet breaking through to Martial King, due to his Soul and Martial Dual Cultivation, his strength was even greater than that of a regular King Level expert.
Who would have thought that his son would have even more monstrous talent than him?
If not for this incident blowing up, they probably would still know nothing about it.
"Return? Just because you say return, does it mean he will return?"
Facing the pressure from the elders, Yang Qingtian laughed, with a hint of anger in his laughter.
As a formidable Soul King, Yang Qingtian, living for a hundred years, found himself somewhat amused.
Back then, when Lin Feng's talent was revealed, he hoped Lin Feng would return to the family, even asking Yang Qing to persuade him to return.
Later, when Lin Feng refined a First Grade Demon Spirit, the matter was left unresolved, and he gave up on Lin Feng.
Now, after two years, Lin Feng returned, not only exhibiting the Purple Gold Soul Skill but also challenging Yang Ningbing to seize a spot on the team.
If she lost, Yang Ningbing would not participate in the national university honor battle.
This was a fatal blow to the clan's most important genius at present.
It would directly impact Yang Ningbing's future development.
Moreover, the efforts and plans the Yang Race had laid over the years at Red Cloud University would be in vain.
Yang Ningbing became the student council president not only because of her strong abilities, serving as the captain of the Red Cloud Team, but the Yang Race also paid a price.
An enormous cost in the tens of billions.
If Yang Ningbing were defeated, losing her aura, even if she graduated, how could she have the qualification to arrange for other clansmen to assume one of the seven minister positions?
How could this not anger Yang Qingtian?
At this moment, he only felt like Lin Feng had played him for a fool.
Opposite Yang Qingtian, Yang Qing looked at his furious father and furrowed his brows slightly.
This incident surprised him as well.
But what use was anger?
"Aren't we being too pessimistic? The Red Cloud Team is so strong, they won't lose!" said a woman in her forties or fifties.
"Exactly, Ning Bing is already at the Peak of Fifth Grade, has absorbed five Soul Skills, two silver, three gold, and the combination is perfect. Moreover, her teammates are close in strength to her, how could Lin Feng's squad be a match?"
Someone agreed, but quickly someone rebutted: "That Lin Feng, from emerging into the limelight to now, he has never been defeated. Without assurance, he wouldn't publically declare a war in such a setting."
Though reluctant to admit it, Yang Qingtian somewhat agreed with these words.
Lin Feng excelled at creating miracles.
Yet, now the challenge match could not be stopped.
At this moment, Yang Qingtian felt a bit of regret in his heart.
If only he hadn't given up on Lin Feng back then!
That way, the family would have an unrivaled talent at the same tier!
"No matter what, he has the blood of the clan running through his veins; since Lin Feng has misunderstandings about the family, only the person who tied the bell can untie it," the Fifth Elder said, and at this moment, everyone's gaze turned to a corner where a silent middle-aged man was sitting.
That man was Yang Qing.
Facing everyone's gaze, Yang Qing's face changed slightly.
He never thought that child would repeatedly put him in such an awkward position.
Though he very much wanted to leave the meeting immediately, faced with his father's stare, Yang Qing had to hold back, and finally, under the elders' verbal goading, Yang Qing hesitated for a long time before slowly saying: "Alright, I will set off for Guanglin now, I'll go see him!"
