In order to become an alchemist, it was useless to rely solely on his talent. He would also need the support of wealthy people.
Just like how Lu Yao invested in Feng Ge, how many people could be as extravagant as him?
For Feng Ge to be able to achieve Fourth Grade Pill Refining Master in such a short span of half a year, his speed must have already exceeded the average person.
After going into seclusion for half a year, Feng Ge managed to achieve the achievement of Fourth Grade Pill Refining Master, but to what extent had his strength risen?
Today, the inner courtyard's Battle of Strong Ranking was going to start, so Shen Feng had already prepared to cripple Feng Ge long ago.
"Hall Master Shen, that reckless Feng Ge dares to challenge you? Seems like, after half a year of closed door cultivation, Hall Master Shen is confident that he can defeat him?" In the inner courtyard plaza, the students had already gathered. At this moment, the higher ups of Purple Cloud Society were all gathered together.
The one who spoke was Wei Feng, the who was defeated by Su Ke'er in one move.
"Hall Master Shen's current strength is different from before, moreover, there is a huge difference between Feng Ge and Hall Master Shen. Since Hall Master Shen possesses a three star Martial Spirit, he would at most be a six star Great Martial Master." Someone beside him said.
"Six stars? Even if he really did become a Martial Spirit, what could he do? Today, I will turn him into a cripple so that he can take revenge for my cousin. " Shen Feng snorted lightly.
"Don't underestimate my enemy, Hall Master Shen. Don't forget, he was once a 9 star warrior who defeated Hei Hu with his 3 star Great Martial Master." Wei Feng reminded.
"You don't need to remind me. You should worry about your opponent, Su Ke'er. "In the past, you were a defeated opponent under her one move, but now you still dare to challenge her. Your courage is commendable." Shen Feng did not seem to be very friendly to Wei Feng. His tone was ice-cold.
"Humph, today I will make sure to put an end to my previous humiliation." Wei Feng's expression changed slightly. He hated others from bringing up the matter of him being defeated by Su Ke'er, so this time around, Battle of Strong Ranking challenged Su Ke'er publicly.
Ever since he was defeated by Su Ke'er in one move, Wei Feng had not become discouraged or fallen, but instead, worked exceptionally hard in his cultivation. Moreover, for some reason, he did not cultivate inside the Jialan Treasured Pagoda for a few months, and instead went to cultivate in the small forest outside the academy everyday.
At this moment, the plaza had already converged, and the people who had not appeared for a long time had appeared one after another. Luo Wuhen, Hong Xiu, and Duan Chen, who were almost forgotten, had finally appeared.
"After cultivating in seclusion for eight months, I can finally show off my skills." Duan Chen said as he twisted his muscles and bones.
"Congratulations to young master Duan for successfully advancing to the Martial Spirit. As expected of the Duan Clan's main bloodline." Hong Xiu said with a smile.
"En..." Not only is she as beautiful as a flower, her talent is also above average. I, Duan Chen, am even ashamed of myself. " Duan Chen cupped his hands.
The Red Valley Immortal Lady, the Red Flower Valley's Valley Lord, was a famous figure. Hearing Duan Chen's words, it seemed that Hong Xiu was undoubtedly the adopted daughter of the Red Valley Immortal Lady.
Hong Xiu frowned, her identity had never been revealed before, and even she felt that she had hidden it well.
"I wonder how much strength Feng Ge has reached after so long? I'm afraid all three of us have been left far behind by him. " Luo Wu Hen looked around, but did not see Feng Ge.
The identities of the three people were not ordinary, if not their talent would not be so good, and in the end, the Academy had even specially opened up an independent Practice Room for them inside the Jialan Treasured Pagoda, giving them a better treatment than Feng Ge.
"BOOM!" The sound of the bell made the entire square fall silent.
Everyone's gazes turned to the high platform above the arena that was already prepared beforehand. Needless to say, they knew that this was where the higher ups of the academy were supposed to appear.
Sure enough, with a swoosh, Elder Wu Zun broke through the air and came over. This was his usual fighting style.
When Clan Elder Wu Zun arrived, a few clan elders also walked out from the two sides of the stage.
He cleared his throat, and then said with his hands behind his back, "This session's Battle of Strong Ranking has changed from the usual method of selecting opponents by drawing lots. After going through the agreement of the academy's elders' pavilion, I have decided to carry out an unprecedented, fair challenge according to the wishes of all the students!"
"The so-called fair challenge is that all students have the qualification to participate in Battle of Strong Ranking, and anyone can challenge any one of the top ten experts on the 'Strong Ranking' at will. As long as they can defeat the opponent, they can replace the 'Strong Ranking'."
Elder Wu Zun's words immediately caused the audience to explode, challenging the top ten rankers, how many students dreamed of that, who didn't want to be in the top ten?
"However, there is a rule that for the sake of fairness, challengers can challenge anyone without limit. However, the challenger can only accept four challenges a day! Victory or defeat was decided by everyone, and they were all confident in their own life and death. Challenger, be careful! "
His words caused the audience to burst into an uproar again, filled with self-confidence in life and death. This made it clear to them that in the arena, they could kill as they pleased. As long as they were strong enough, if they weren't strong enough, they would most likely be killed by someone else! This way, I'm afraid not many people would dare to challenge the top ten of the 'Strong Ranking', right?
"This is a cruel competition, and at the same time, it is also a good opportunity to train you in actual combat. The top ten students on this year's Power Rankings are even more so guaranteed to enter the Yutian Empire Imperial City Academy.
Imperial City Academy was a high level Martial Cultivator Academy. Every year, only the top students of the large academies would have the qualifications to enter, and each academy only had ten spots per year.
As for those who entered the Imperial City Academy, they were all first-rate geniuses. Those who graduated successfully from the Imperial City Academy, were definitely strong enough to scare off anyone, and the weakest among them were at the Martial King realm. Some of them were already at the peak of the Martial Emperor when they left the academy.
It was said that there was once a genius that had graduated from the Royal Academy, and his Martial Sovereign was already at the level of Martial Sovereign the moment he appeared.
"Yutian Empire Imperial City Academy?" Feng Ge who was in the crowd was suspicious, he did not know much about the Imperial City Academy, even though he had heard of it before.
"Feng Ge, if you can defeat Shen Feng, you will directly become the strongest warrior on the Ranking Eight of the Inner Academy, and will even be sent to the Imperial City Academy." Lu Yao said.
"This time's competition may allow you to directly challenge the experts on the top ten rankings, but it's even crueler than drawing lots. After all, there's no lack of people challenging the top ten of the 'Strong Ranking', and in this half a year, the academy has produced so many experts. Even if they defeated Shen Feng and took the eighth rank of the 'Strong Ranking', it's still hard to maintain their rank." Feng Ge shook his head and said.
"It seems you know how powerful it is, but I believe you can do it. To you, not being able to enter the top three is akin to being a disgrace to your ancestors. "
"En..." The top three, are exclusively for Martial King … "
"It's also your exclusive! "Heehee …" Lu Yao stared at Feng Ge and giggled.
"I try not to embarrass my ancestors." Feng Ge didn't seem to have much confidence. After all, without Martial King, it was very difficult to enter the top three.
"Look, those are the top ten experts of the last Inner Academy's' Strong Ranking '." At this time, he pointed to the high platform and spoke.
Sure enough, Feng Ge saw a few students from the Inner Academy on the stage.
"Why is there only nine?" Feng Ge chose two times, and there were only nine of them.
"The top ranker of the 'Strong Ranking' has not arrived yet." Lu Yao replied.
"Tang Loong? "Indeed, you have the reputation of being number one!" Feng Ge nodded his head, but his gaze landed on the first person on the left: She is the Clan Master of Purple Cloud Society, Tang Xin?
"Yes, how is it? Beautiful? Do you like it? " Lu Yao asked with a smirk on her face.
"Stop messing around, I just want to know, what is her relationship with Tang Loong?" Feng Ge was guessing, could Tang Loong and Tang Xin be siblings?
"Brother and sister, you still want to ask something that even a fool can guess?" Lu Yao rolled her eyes at Feng Ge.
Feng Ge frowned, the first and second strongest Flowing Cloud Academy students were actually siblings, what kind of family would such a brother and sister come from? The Tang Clan's background must be very frightening, right?
Of the nine people present, from left to right, Feng Ge only recognized three. One was the Shen Feng in eighth place, so he couldn't be more familiar with him. The other one was the Gu Lang in fifth place, and the one he wasn't unfamiliar with was the Tai Zheng Dragon in seventh place.
"The top ten inner courtyard experts from the previous batch are now here. Next up, you all can begin to challenge them!" The Battle of Strong Ranking began with a few casual words from Elder Wu Zun.
On the stage, the nine great experts were all proud and arrogant. After all, the top ten experts of the inner courtyard were the top ten experts of the entire academy. They believed that no one would be a match for them.
However, after Elder Wu Zun had finished speaking, other than the discussions below, no one else dared to challenge them. After all, they were all top ten experts, and no one knew how strong the other side was. Who would dare to challenge them?
"Wang Lin of Heaven Rank Class has come to challenge Senior Jin Sheng." After a long while, someone finally jumped onto the stage and shouted.
Wang Chong was a top student in the Heaven Rank Class. He was in the same class as Jin Sheng, who was ranked tenth on the Strong Ranking.
From the looks of it, everyone was just watching and did not dare to issue a challenge. Only after those experts displayed their strength would there be more people coming out to challenge.
"Jin Sheng accepts Student Wang Chong's challenge." On the high platform, Jin Sheng jumped down from the stage and stood face to face with Wang Chong.
After each other's composing, a great battle was about to break out.
