Chapter 326

Everyone’s gaze fell onto Lin Yun with anticipation. Although Luo Feng maintained his composure, he was feeling uneasy in his heart. The reason why he asked Lin Yun to throw a punch at him was to test the latter. He wanted to see if Lin Yun’s foundation was unstable before making other plans.

With Lin Yun’s cultivation, there were many inner disciples stronger than him. For example, there were many seventh stage inner disciples among the disciples who were sending them off. Which of them didn’t want to visit the banquet? But the quota was limited.

Even if Guardian Plum designated Lin Yun to participate, they still needed to convince the mass. In Luo Feng’s view, it was sufficient if Lin Yun could exert strength in the sixth stage. After all, Lin Yun had just been promoted to the sixth stage, and it was normal that he wouldn’t be able to face those in the same stage. But that didn’t matter. After all, Lin Yun had a decent aptitude, and the eighth grade spiritual physique was rare even in the Sword Firmament Pavilion.

“Let’s begin.” Luo Feng nodded his head uneasily.

Lin Yun’s eyes glowed. The six profound veins in his body triggered as origin energy fluctuated within his body. Lin Yun’s temperament changed when the origin energy within his body surged. His origin energy roared and Lin Yun was like a drawn sword filled with explosive power.

“What powerful aura!” The disciples who were sending the team off had a drastic change on their faces when they saw this scene.

Lin Yun balled his fist together and threw out a punch. After being refined by the Dragonblood Fruit, Lin Yun’s aura was denser than before without any stain. When his origin energy flowed within his body, he emitted a faint radiance from his body.

Faint violet flickers shined from his body as Lin Yun threw out a punch. His punch produced a thunderous explosion in the air, which robbed everyone of their hearing for a brief moment.

Before the surrounding aura dissipated, it turned into an aura wave that swept out from Lin Yun’s body. The shockwave raised a cloud of dust. When they looked at the long-haired youth, everyone recovered and they were shocked inwardly.

This was a punch that not even those in the seventh stage could unleash. Lin Yun’s origin energy was dense, and they couldn’t imagine that he was just in the sixth stage of the Profound Martial Realm. It clearly seemed like an ordinary punch without any accumulation, but it shut the mouths of those who doubted him.

Even as an elite in the eighth stage on the Earth Ranking, Tang Tong also took in a cold breath. He realized that he had underestimated Lin Yun. This punch couldn’t be underestimated. As for Xin Yan, she didn’t look shocked. She only had a smile on her face.

She wasn’t surprised by the density of Lin Yun’s origin energy since he refined the Dragonflame Fruit. She guessed that Lin Yun’s origin energy must’ve reached the seventh stage. And if his cultivation technique could refine the Dragonflame Fruit completely, not even Tang Tong who was in the eighth stage could suppress him.

The Dragonflame Fruit and the thousands of second-grade spiritual jades Lin Yun refined gave him the confidence.

On the other hand, Xin Jue fell into deep thoughts. He had guessed something, but he didn’t expose Lin Yun. In terms of shock, Luo Feng was the most shocked. He only wanted to test Lin Yun’s strength to convince everyone else. He never expected that the punch from Lin Yun even surpassed the sixth stage of the Profound Martial Realm.

“It’s still alright.” Luo Feng smiled. He rejoiced inwardly while maintaining his calm composure on the outside.

Lin Yun smiled. He didn’t argue with Luo Feng over it.

Xin Jue smiled, “That’s one powerful fist. I believe you’ll be able to shine in the banquet.”

“I heard that you chose the Aquaselenic Sword from the Martial Hall?” Luo Feng asked.

“That’s right. This sword technique is comparable to my cultivation technique.” Tianming nodded.

When he spoke, everyone wore a playful smile on their faces. Who in the Sword Firmament Pavilion didn’t know that the Aquaselenic Sword was known for its fluctuation? It merely had the name of a transcendent spiritual sword technique without the power to back up. It was even weaker than advanced spiritual sword techniques.

“Go and pick another one when we’re done. The Aquaselenic Sword isn’t a good choice, and Tang Tong is a good example. He didn’t take the advice and his cultivation got dragged down in the process.” Luo Feng shook his head. He didn’t believe in Lin Yun’s words.

As the protagonist, Tang Tong smiled bitterly. Tianming wanted to perform the Aquaselenic Sword, but he gave up on it after looking at Luo Feng. He wasn’t in a rush, and Luo Feng would get to see it sooner or later. The Aquaselenic Sword was already at greater mastery, and there was no way he would change it.

“Let’s go.” Everyone rode on their horses and headed to the capital under the gazes of the surrounding disciples. Luo Feng and Xin Jue took the lead, while Lin Yun followed behind along with Tang Tong.

“Lin Yun, let me introduce you. This is Senior Brother Wang Zhen, and he’s ranked ninth on the Earth Ranking. This is Senior Brother Yan Ding, ranked on the eighth.

Lin Yun was shocked when the top rankers looked so ordinary.

When Wang Jianqiao saw Lin Yun’s facial expression, he wasn't offended. “That’s normal. The Earth Ranking won’t just give. The experience of an inner disciple isn’t comparable to the outer disciples. People like us will set out goals in the Great Qin Empire instead of the sect.

Lin Yun fell into deep thoughts. What Wang Jianqiao’s words made sense. The outer disciples were too weak, and they would naturally pay attention to the Mortal Ranking. On the other hand, the inner disciples were stronger, and they had more experience. They only had the Great Qin Empire in their eyes and nothing else. This also meant that Lin Yun couldn’t afford to look down on these two.

There must be a reason why Xin Jue chose the two of them for the birthday banquet.

Tang Tong looked at Lin Yun, and he smiled, “Everyone’s attention is our rankings in the Great Qin Empire.”

“Junior Brother Lin, do you know about the four sequences in the Great Qin Empire?”

“I’m all ears.” Bai Qiushan talked to him briefly, about how elites in the Great Qin Empire were ranked according to the sequences. The first sequence was naturally the eight titles, and they were the role model of everyone.

The second sequence represented the core disciples of the various sects. They were mostly all in the ninth stage of the Profound Martial Realm. In many people’s view, the second sequence was comparable to the eight tiles, and the Dragon Gate Competition was an opportunity for them. The third sequence was the fifth stage of the Great Qin Empire.

Wang Zhen hesitated briefly, “If Junior Brother Lin didn’t cultivate the Aquaselenic Sword, he might be now qualified for the third sequence.”

“That’s right. Judging from the aura from Junior Brother Lin’s punch previously, the origin energy isn’t any weaker than the seventh stage of the Profound Martial Realm. He’ll be able to make it into the third sequence with another sword technique.” Ding Yan nodded.

Throughout the Great Qin Empire, there were only about three thousand who reached the seventh stage of the Profound Martial Realm. And there were only about a hundred qualified to make it into the third sequence. But they were saying that Lin Yun could make it with his cultivation in the third stage?

This was a high evaluation. Lin Yun merely smiled in response. Making it into the third sequence if he practiced another sword technique? But is there any sword technique among transcend

I wonder what’s the strength of those in the third sequence… Lin Yun was curious about it, and this was a great opportunity for him to learn more.

“I wonder if there are any powerful ones outside the third sequence.” Lin Yun was curious. This was an opportunity for him to learn more about the other sects’ geniuses.

“The third sequence had four infamous figures, the Demonic Moon Villa’s Feng Haoyu, Primal Origin Sect’s Yuwen Bo, and the Heavenly Profound Sect’s Wang Han. And…” Tang Tong smiled while he looked at the graceful figure on a demonic horse.

So it was Xin Yan? Lin Yun fell into deep thoughts. He never expected that Xin Yan would have such a high position.

Fear flashed in Wang Zheng’s eyes. He spoke out, “There are many newcomers in the third sequence, and someone will try to challenge Senior Sister Xin Yan’s position. Big Brother Xin Jue is probably coming along because he’s worried about Xin Yan.”

“Everyone heard of the four masters, and many people will definitely pay attention to them.” Ding Yan’s expression turned grave.

Indeed, the first and second sequences can be merged together. Someone like Xin Jue could only take another step further in the Dragon Gate Competition. The birthday banquet wasn’t attractive to someone in the first and second sequences. The ones who will go on the stage were all the elites of the third sequence.

“It looks like Senior Sister is in a troublesome spot,” commented Lin Yun.

Tang Tong patted Lin Yun’s shoulder. He smiled, “Junior Brother, you just have to be worried about yourself. You’ve been in the limelight recently, and everyone knew that there’s someone powerful like you in the sect.”

In their view, Lin Yun’s trouble was even greater than Xin Yan. After all, Xin Yan had the three of them helping her. On the contrary, Lin Yun had no one to depend on. After all, he couldn’t possibly get his senior brothers in the eighth stage to help him, right? They had a feeling that the birthday banquet wouldn’t be peaceful.
