  "In terms of overall strength, Zhao Chi is indeed harder to fight than Zhao Han. He has almost zero flaws, and his offense is also powerful," Zhao Feng nodded his head.

  Zhao Han suppressed his opponents by overpowering them with Inner Strength, but his speed and defense weren't strong.

  "Receive my punch!" Zhao Chi shouted onstage as his fist swept towards Zhao Linlong.

  Shuah!

  A broken after-image was left behind. The next moment, Zhao Linlong appeared smiling faintly next to Zhao Chi.

  Zhao Chi's fist didn't even touch his robe.

  What was even more frightening was that Zhao Linlong was only half a meter away from him. Zhao Chi broke out in cold sweat. At this instant, he could even smell Zhao Linlong.

  "Smoking Rain Step!"

  Zhao Chi wasn't useless. Immediately, he used a high ranked footwork skill and started to exchange blows with Zhao Linlong.

  Immediately, the two figures interwove. Both of them used high ranked martial arts.

  The reason why Zhao Linlong said that Zhao Chi was the only one who could fight him was that Zhao Chi had learned a lot of high ranked martial arts.

  High ranked fist skill! High ranked footwork skill! High ranked body strengthening technique…all of these skills had been trained to a high level.

  Zhao Chi continuously attacked with these skills. Now his momentum had surpassed Zhao Linlong. Although his momentum had exceeded Zhao Linlong, Zhao Chi once again pushed back. After exchanging twenty blows, Zhao Linlong had steadily overpowered him with the cultivation of the fourth rank only.

  "I'll make you lose willingly!" Zhao Linlong smiled faintly.

  He raised his finger, and a purple-azure aura spun around in circles.

  Shua!

  Just the thread of Inner Strength sent out a frightening aura.

  "Spatial Cloud Finger!"

  That finger seemed to open a hole in the clouds. That was…

  Zhao Chi took a deep breath as he gathered all his Inner Strength to counter the finger.

  "Sky Howling Leaping Thunder!" Zhao Chi's fist glowed fire red as it faced the finger.

  The power of this fist exceeded any skill that had been used so far in the tournament. But, although his fist seemed powerful, it seemed like it was an ant compared to the casual finger of Zhao Linlong.

  Hooong—-

  The two moves finally clashed. Zhao Chi immediately tasted iron inside his mouth as he was knocked backward.

  "Not bad, you're able to block my peak ranked martial art." A golden-robed youth reappeared with his hands behind his back.

  "Peak ranked martial art? I didn't lose unjustly," Zhao Chi said bitterly as he surrendered.

  Spatial Cloud Finger!

  Peak ranked martial art!

  The crowd was in shock. When did Zhao Linlong learn a peak ranked martial art?

  "Hehe, Zhao Linlong has already learned the first three moves of the Spatial Cloud Finger. That was just the first one," the head of the sect Zhao TIancang said proudly.

  "Congratulations for taking in such a good step-son." The elders came over and congratulated the head of the sect.

  Zhao Linlong was the step-son of the head of the sect! No wonder he could learn peak ranked martial arts. But the thing was that peak ranked martial arts usually needed one to reach the seventh rank of the martial path to understand them. Those that could learn peak ranked skills were usually Martial Masters!

  "Zhao Chi! Challenge failed, rank not changed. Zhao Linlong, rank not changed," the judge announced.

  Zhao Linlong and Zhao Chi returned to their seats. Zhao Linlong was expressionless and didn't challenge anyone. In his opinion, there was no one left to challenge.

  The first round of the challenging contest ended. Next was the second round of the challenging contest. There were a total of three chances to challenge someone per person.

  There were barely any challengers in the second round. But when it came to number sixteen, Zhao Han's turn, he immediately challenged number four Zhao Qin and won.

  He continued by challenging number two Zhao Chi and number one Zhao Linlong. The result was that he managed to tie with Zhao Chi by using his Inner Strength.

  But when he met Zhao Linlong, Zhao Han was defeated in three moves. He wasn't like Zhao Chi, who had absolute defense, so he couldn't fend off even three of Zhao Linlong's moves.

  First place Zhao Linlong… second place Zhao Chi… third place Zhao Feng… fourth place Zhao Han.

  They were the top four inner disciples. No one dared to challenge them.

  Out of the four, Zhao Linlong led in front by beating Zhao Chi and Zhao Han. Only Zhao Feng had not crossed hands with Zhao Linlong from the top three.

  "Third place Zhao Feng, it's your turn to challenge someone," the judge said.

  Chapter 41 – Zhao Yufei's Attractiveness

  "It's my turn again?" Zhao Feng sat on his chair and touched his chin. There were only Zhao Chi and Zhao Linlong in front of him.

  Although he could beat Zhao Chi, he would have to spend a bit of energy. If he challenged Zhao Linlong, everyone would know his real strength and cultivation. His cultivation had increased way too fast in the past few months, and it would attract too much attention.

  Zhao Feng also wanted to leave a hand to guard against Zhao Tianjian. Furthermore, Zhao Feng didn't have much confidence in beating Zhao Linlong.

  "I pass." Zhao Feng wanted to pass even after he analyzed the benefits.

  His goal was to reach the top three and get a peak ranked martial art. Now that he had achieved his goal, there was no point in fighting to the death for a higher rank.

  Zhao Feng's pass caused many to be slightly stunned, but they didn't feel too weird about it. After all, with Zhao Feng's cultivation, to be ranked in the top three was a massive feat already.

  "I also pass." Zhao Chi looked deeply at Zhao Feng.

  He had seen the battle between Zhao Han and Zhao Feng, and he knew that Zhao Feng was stronger than him.

  The top three had all passed.

  The ranks were: Number one Zhao Linlong, number two Zhao Chi, number three Zhao Feng, number four Zhao Han, number five Zhao Qin, number six Zhao Yufei, number seven Zhao Bing…

  The top seven were all Martial Artists.

  "This is the last time anyone will have the chance to challenge someone," the judge announced.

  After the second round, not many people challenged others as the ranks were almost confirmed. However, when it was number six Zhao Yufei's turn, there was a small twist.

  "I want to challenge number five Zhao Qin." Zhao Yufei's eyes were like crystal as she smiled faintly.

  Her challenge surprised many people.

  "Sure," Zhao Qin nodded her head as she went onstage.

  Soon, the two beautiful girls faced off. Both Zhao Yufei and Zhao Qin were pretty. Furthermore, they were both talented. As the two headed up, many youths' heartbeat started to thump faster. Many felt the two were the women of their dreams.

  Especially Zhao Yufei. She was younger than Zhao Qin, and her prettiness shone like a beacon.

  Yi!

  Zhao Linlong's eyes brightly flashed as he saw Zhao Yufei.

  "Azure Cloud Finger!"

  "Butterfly Leaves Palm!"

  The two girls shouted their styles out as their perfect bodies swayed in the wind.

  Zhao Qin had always been the top girl genius. Her cultivation had almost reached the peak of the fifth rank. In terms of age, Zhao Yufei's age was lower than Zhao Qin's by two years, and she had only just reached the fourth rank.

  However, as they exchanged blows, Zhao Yufei wasn't losing. Zhao Yufei's Inner Strength was like the wind, agile and fast. Zhao Feng understood that Zhao Yufei was also learning the Air Crossing Breathing Technique, but there was still a big distance between the two girls. But the complexity of Air Crossing Breathing Technique made up for the cultivation gap between the two of them.

&nb
sp; After exchanging twenty blows, Zhao Qin's face turned solemn as she started to circulate her Inner Strength fully. However, Zhao Yufei still easily dodged her attacks with her agility.

  Thirty moves! Forty moves!…

  Zhao Yufei's skill started to perfect itself as time went on. Only at the eightieth move did a change happen.

  "Butterfly Flower Dance!" Zhao Yufei's power and speed suddenly stepped into a whole new level.

  Pah! Pah! Pah…

  Zhao Yufei's graceful body was like a butterfly that danced in the air.

  Zhao Qin was pushed back only after three moves. "You hid your strength!" she exclaimed.

  Zhao Yufei had conserved her strength when they exchanged blows before.

  "I give up!" Zhao Qin was injured quickly after a few more moves.

  The disciples started to see Zhao Yufei in a new light. This woman was not only beautiful, but her talent was also top tier.

  "Good!" Zhao Linlong nodded his head in praise as he stared at Zhao Yufei.

  Zhao Chi on his right thought, Could Zhao Linlong be in…

  As number one, Zhao Linlong's short gaffe was seen by the crowd,

  "Haha, it looks like the hero can't pass up the beautiful woman," the elders of the sect laughed.

  "Zhao Yufei's talent is not weaker than Zhao Linlong. The two would make a good couple," the head of the sect Zhao Tiancang smiled.

  After beating Zhao Qin, Zhao Yufei was promoted to fifth. According to the rules, she could keep on challenging others.

  But as Zhao Yufei looked at the top four, she realized that all of them far exceeded her. When she met Zhao Linlong's hot eyes, she felt a bit weird.

  Zhao Linlong was cold and without expression during the tournament. But when he noticed Zhao Yufei, his coldness seemed to melt. This was the first time it had happened – Yes, the feeling of his heart thumping.

  After Zhao Yufei, it was Zhao Han's turn. Zhao Han's eyes passed over Zhao Feng, Zhao Chi, and Zhao Linlong. Zhao Han didn't have any chance to reach top three.

  Zhao Feng? He had already tasted the bitter side of defeat. His strength was terrifying; maybe only Zhao Linlong could stop him.

  "I pass," Zhao Han said helplessly.

  If he hadn't challenged Zhao Feng before, he could still be ranked in the top three, and with him in peak condition, there was a chance of him beating Zhao Chi.

  "Pass," Zhao Feng said.

  "I also pass," Zhao Chi also said.

  "The tournament has ended." Zhao Linlong faintly smiled, and once again looked towards Zhao Yufei.

  He didn't know why, but every time he saw her, he felt that she was even more perfect.

  Feeling his fire-red eyes staring at her, Zhao Yufei on instinct tried to dodge.

  "This year's family sparring contest has come to an end. Now, we will announce the prizes and ranks…"

  Soon, the inner disciples ranking came out:

  First: Zhao Linlong

  Second: Zhao Chi

  Third: Zhao Feng

  Fourth: Zhao Han

  Fifth: Zhao Yufei

  Sixth: Zhao Qin

  Seventh: Zhao Bing

  The top disciples were full of expectations. According to last year's ranking, the top twenty, top ten, and top three would gain extra rewards.

  "Now the head of the sect will announce the rewards," the judge said.

  The head of the sect!

  A thunderous sound of clapping came from the crowd. Onstage, a middle-aged man slowly stood up. He raised his hands, and an overbearing pressure came from him.

  He was the head of the sect, Zhao Tiancang!

  Zhao Feng felt that the head of the sect's aura was similar to the high tier deadly beasts in the Sky Cloud Forest. He was a Martial Master of the seventh rank or higher.

  Zhao Tiancang scanned the faces of the fifty inner disciples. When it landed on Zhao Linlong, it was extremely caring and loving.

  Many knew that Zhao Linlong was his step-son.

  "All those that have become inner disciples can go to the second level of the Martial Arts Library and choose a high ranked martial art. They'll also receive a three hundred year blood plant." The rewards were as good as the rumors said.

  "The top twenty can choose two high ranked martial arts and receive two three-hundred year blood plants. The top ten can choose two high ranked martial arts and receive one five-hundred year blood plant." The head of the sect paused.

  "The top three can also choose one peak and two high ranked martial arts. Also, they'll receive a blood pill," the head of the sect said as he smiled.

  Peak ranked martial art! Blood pill!

  The rewards of the top three far exceeded the others. Zhao Feng couldn't help but smile.

  He was in need of peak ranked martial arts. And the blood pill could increase the cultivation of a Martial Artist.

  The fifty disciples went to retrieve their rewards under the guidance of the manager. That very day, Zhao Feng received a blood pill.

  As for the one peak ranked and two high ranked martial arts, Zhao Feng had a special token which allowed him to go Martial Arts Library and choose his skills.

  "I heard that the number one person usually had some special rewards. Why isn't there any this year?"

  "Maybe they just haven't announced it yet."

  On the way back Zhao Feng heard a few discussions. He didn't bother listening to them. Instead, he just walked back home.

  "Brother Feng!" a sweet voice called from behind. Without turning his head, Zhao Feng knew that it was Zhao Yufei.

  The two were neighbors and so they were a bit familiar with one another. After the exchange of Metal Wall Technique and Air Crossing Breathing Technique, the two became even closer.

  "Yufei, your performance was pretty good." Zhao Feng couldn't help but think about her beating Zhao Qin.

  "I'm still far away from brother Feng. I'm just curious as to why you didn't challenge Zhao Linlong!" Zhao Yufei looked curiously at him.

  She was certain that his Metal Wall Technique had reached the fourth level. His defense was easily top amongst the inner disciples. Adding on Zhao Feng's Inner Strength and Lightly Floating Ferry, he had the right to challenge Zhao Linlong.

  "You overestimate me. There's still a big distance between me and Zhao Linlong," Zhao Feng said humbly.

  Obviously, Zhao Yufei's estimation of his strength was close. The ages of the two were close, so they got along well.

  On the corner of the stage, a youth clothed in gold watched Zhao Yufei's and Zhao Feng's figure dimly as they walked off together.

  His eyes flashed coldly, and he said to himself, "That kid seems to be called Zhao Feng?"

  Chapter 42 – Peak Fifth Rank, Martial Arts Library

  As Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei walked back side by side, the disciples looked on in jealousy and envy. Zhao Yufei started to blush. Her eyes secretly glanced towards Zhao Feng but found the latter was as calm as if nothing was happening, disappointing her somewhat.

  She felt that Zhao Feng was the only one who could suppress her in the sect, and this made her feel somewhat helpless.

  Returning home, Zhao Feng went out to the city to report his gains in the Sky Cloud Forest. Obviously, he didn't say that Zhao Tianjian had sent someone to kill him, or how he had met high tier deadly beasts. Zhao Yufei still broke out in cold sweat.

  Going to his room, Zhao Feng let out a long breath. "Zhao Tianjian has already sent someone to kill me, so he'll be likely to keep on doing that. Therefore, I'll hide my cultivation and surprise him."

  This was the reason he didn't challenge Zhao Linlong. Zhao Feng sat cross-legged on the floor, and he put his consciousness into the dimension inside his left eye. In the pitch black area, the faint green glow in the middle had reached 1.8 meters, which meant that his cultivation had touched the doorway of the peak fifth rank.

  Zhao Feng wasn't thinking about this.

  Appear! Zhao Feng concentra
ted on his left eye.

  Shua!

  Immediately the green glow was replaced by a scene. In the scene, there were two figures: one was the high tier, Azure-Eyed Hyena, while the other was the shy girl who wasn't much older than Zhao Yufei.

  Next, the Azure-Eyed Hyena and the girl both leaped at each other. The girl in green seemed to meld into the air. Her body gave off a strange azure light, which was much brighter than a normal chi. She casually waved her wands, and the azure light formed into wind blades that instantly ripped the Azure-Eyed Hyena's head into pieces.

  I wonder from where that girl comes. Probably no one could block one of her moves in Sun Feather City; Zhao Feng drew a cold breath.

  The scene replayed, again and again. Zhao Feng looked from different angles and positions to see how the girl attacked. Slowly, he began to gain some insight.

  The casual swipe of her hands contained understanding that far surpassed the Martial Artist level. Zhao Feng had already gained a small bit just from looking at her attacking. At this moment, he had duplicated the move, but his damage was very far off. But the duplication itself already reached the power of a high ranked martial art.

  This deeply shocked him. Wouldn't that mean if he completely duplicated the girl's moves, it would surpass peak ranked martial arts? Thinking to there, Zhao Feng became even more excited,

  "Why don't I name this skill Mysterious Wind Palm!" he said to himself proudly.

  That night Zhao Feng tried to gain more insight into the new move. Since this move was super high tier, Zhao Feng was unable to understand it within such a short timeframe fully. It was deep night before Zhao Feng felt tired. It looked like the left eye's dimension couldn't continuously help him replay the scene back and forth.

  "It takes a lot of my mental energy trying to gain insights from this move," Zhao Feng concluded.

  Therefore, he started to train Air Crossing Breathing Technique again.He had received a blood pill from the tournament, and it could increase his cultivation. Pills were different from pure plants, as they contained a lot fewer impurities within them, so cultivators were able to absorb more energy and of better quality from them.
