âThank you, Master Bodhidharma,â said Lin Feng, cupping his fist respectfully. Bodhidharmaâs demon energy allowed Lin Feng to understand different aspects regarding demon cultivation. Lin Fengâs demon level two Dao improved instantly.
âYouâre welcome. I am like a teacher to you, even if you donât consider me as such,â said Bodhidharma with a smile. He raised his left hand and recalled his demon Qi.
Demon Qi disappeared. Everybody looked at Lin Feng and Bodhidharma. They didnât really understand what was going on.
Tian Qiong and Prince Nan looked at Lin Feng, sensing that his Qi had increased. Bodhidharma had already taught Lin Feng a few things!
âAlright, Master Bodhidharma has already recruited a chief disciple, you two can become my disciples.â Xuan Yuan Mu said to Tian Qiong and Prince Nan.
What could they say? They could only accept becoming Xuan Yuan Muâs disciple. Lin Feng had become their teacherâs fellow disciple! They were furious, but what could they do? Nothing. The best they could do was wait for an opportunity to kill him!
âBrother Lin Feng, are these your wives?â Xuan Yuan Mu asked, looking at Meng Qing and Tang You You. He sounded much nicer now.
âIndeed, they are my wives,â said Lin Feng honestly while taking his wivesâ hands.
Xuan Yuan Mu nodded and said, âThey passed the exam. They can become Han Xianziâs disciples, what do you think?â
âHan Xianzi?â Lin Feng looked at Xuan Yuan Mu in a strange way, who was Han Xianzi?
âNo problem. They can become Han Xianziâs disciples,â said Bodhidharma. Xuan Yuan Mu nodded. Bodhidharma thought it was a good idea, so Lin Feng didnât take risks by disagreeing.
Lin Feng looked at Bodhidharma skeptically, though. Bodhidharma noticed that and started explaining things to Lin Feng.
âIn the Gods Sect, there are many factions. Xuan Yuan Muâs teacher is a great elder. Xuan Yuan Mu and I are of the same level. Han Xianzi is the leader of another faction, and we are of the same level. She only recruits women. Your wives can be her disciples, you donât need to worry.â
âThere are only those few factions?â asked Lin Feng.
âOf course not. Apart from those three, there are other factions, supreme factions and holy factions. Supreme Factionsâ Leadersâ disciples are patriarchs, while Holy Factionsâ leaders are of the noblest kind, they are from the Holy Shrine. They have very high positions in the Gods Sect!â explained Bodhidharma patiently. Everybody else heard him.
Xuan Yuan Mu was a supreme elderâs disciple. Supreme eldersâ disciples were current patriarchs. So, wasnât Lin Feng a patriarch now, too?
Tian Qiong and Prince Nan looked at Lin Feng with hatred. Lin Feng now had a high social status in the Gods Sect. They were only low-rank disciples now!
Lin Feng understood what it meant, and was startled. What a high social status! His fellow disciples were Gods Sectâs patriarchs!
âAlright, everybody, good luck with your cultivation. When the exam is completely finished, Iâll bring you to your residences. Youâll be able to practice cultivation there,â said Bodhidharma. He sat down on his chair again, and looked like a statue again.
Xuan Yuan Mu was relieved.
âThe Half-Holy Emperorsâ exam can start. There are two ways to be qualified. The first option is to climb up the stairs.
âThe second solution is to challenge one of these three, if you win, you will replace them,â said Xuan Yuan Mu, glancing at Lin Feng.
He now understood that Bodhidharma might want to use those people to see whether Lin Feng could compete with them or not. If he failed, he wouldnât be qualified to be Bodhidharmaâs disciple.
Lin Feng understood that as well. He had become Bodhidharmaâs chief disciple, many people envied him and wanted to replace him!
Tian Qiong and Prince Nan smiled coldly. Lin Fengâs situation could be great, but it could also bring about his destruction. How many Half-Holy Emperors would challenge him now?
âThose who want to climb up the stairs can start now,â said Xuan Yuan Mu.
Xuan Yuan Mu sounded rather impassive. At that moment, the whole crowd was stupefied because only one Half-Holy Emperor started climbing up the stairs. He was wearing blue clothes.
That man knew Lin Feng and the others were extremely strong.
Now, he decided to go up the stairs. The others Half-Holy Emperors were waiting. Xuan Yuan Mu sighed. Some people were ready to take all risks for their own benefits.
âNow, challengers, battles to death are possible!â shouted Xuan Yuan Mu, adding a new rule.
Two Half-Holy Emperors instantly retreated when they heard that. They wanted to climb up the stairs instead, but Yu Qing prevented them from doing so.
They could only challenge people.
âFirst challenger, say whom you want to challenge clearly.â said Xuan Yuan Mu to the crowd.
âIâll come first, I want to challenge Lin Feng!â said a middle-aged man in white clothes, pointing at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was focused. He said indifferently, âI accept the challenge.â
âHmph, Iâm going to become the chief disciple, then!â shouted the man furiously. He threw himself at Lin Feng, raising his fist.
Water Dao. That man controlled one of the five elements, water. His water Dao was also level two.
Lin Feng smiled coldly. This guy really overestimated his own abilities!
Lin Feng raised his fist and threw it out. A terrifying demon energy appeared and surrounded the water Dao. The manâs expression changed drastically, and he hastily stepped back.
But how could Lin Feng give him any opportunity? He released speed Dao and disappeared.
The manâs expression changed as he paled. He sensed a presence behind him, but he didnât have time to react though, blood splashed instantly, he was blown away and crashed onto the ground. A crater a few meters wide appeared around him.
âThe first challenger failed!â said Lin Feng loudly.
âIâll come now!â
Lin Feng provoked the other challengers and hurt their dignity. Someone came and challenged him instantly.
He was relatively young and wearing black clothes. The man had an arched sword in his back. It was a powerful Holy Kingâs weapon, a half-Godâs weapon.
His blade instantly streaked across the sky, a black trail appearing in the sky. Lin Feng jumped backwards as quickly as possible. Lights passed next to him.
That person was stronger than the previous challenger. Lin Feng also took out his Godâs Sword. It was also a half-Godâs weapon.
âBroken Space!â shouted the man furiously. The blade moved towards Lin Feng again. It contained an aggressive sharp Dao strength which chopped at space. The space was cut into two different parts.
The man started laughing, as if he had already won.
It was useless against Lin Feng, though. Lin Feng had spent hundreds of years in Ganges Time, Mister Time had told him that space and time were unfathomable kinds of Dao strength.
Lin Feng raised his left hand, and the level two space strength disappeared. His Godâs Sword streaked across the space. The manâs head flew away, and his body fell down onto the ground.
It was the first Half-Holy Emperor who died!
âThe second challenger lost. Who else wants to try?!â
Lin Feng was standing in the sky holding his Godâs Sword, blood dripping from it. He looked like a war god. His voice made peopleâs heart twitch. Nobody dared challenge Lin Feng again.
Challenging him to become the chief disciple was too risky!
âIâll challenge Tian Qiong.â
âIâll challenge Prince Nan.â
After a few minutes of silence, some people finally decided to challenge Tian Qiong and Prince Nan instead of Lin Feng. A cold smile appeared on Lin Fengâs face, He glanced at Tian Qiong and Prince Nan to see their expressions. They both pulled long faces.
