"Imitation Niuzao's Banner. Back slot. Combat Power +50. Increases armor by 525 points, +36 Agility, +54 Stamina, +28 Mastery, +18 Critical Strike. Required level: 65."
As Sage Yan Suxin took out Niuzao's Banner, the system issued a notification. It was defensive equipment. Unexpectedly, it was a special cloak.
Among the orc clans, the Fireblade Clan struck fear into its enemies with its deadly Orc Blademasters. In Pandaria, every powerful Nuzao Warrior carried a battle flag—a banner filled with honor.
"Only when the raging seas sweep across the land are a hero's true colors revealed."
Ten square characters were emblazoned on Niuzao's Banner. At that moment, the system translated them for the viewers in the livestream.
"Hero's True Colors suddenly made a piece of music start playing in my head. This banner really is imposing..."
"Brother Feng is about to set foot on a path filled with battle. I could never figure out how that path should be walked, but now I have some ideas. Compared to those generic power-fantasy stories, everyone still likes sentiment!"
"I'll never forget the scene of Brother Ma lighting cigarettes with banknotes. Hero's True Colors—Brother Feng should let us relive Hero's True Colors in the next arc."
"This isn't just a banner. It carries an era. The old era of sages has been entrusted onward, while a new age of heroes rises. Only when the raging seas sweep across the land are a hero's true colors revealed."
"After enduring so many hardships, Brother Feng has finally received fortune's favor for the first time today. The curtain on a new era is finally about to rise."
The viewers focused on "Only when the raging seas sweep across the land are a hero's true colors revealed," while the Pandaren focused on the story behind the banner itself.
It was said that the first Sage of Whispering Cloud Village had been Nuzao Temple's standard-bearer. It was said that this banner had been the flag of the Nuzao First Celestial Legion during Nuzao Temple's great war against the Mogu. This banner was not merely a banner—it was the spirit of the Pandaren ancestors. When the villagers of Whispering Cloud Village saw it, it was as if they had seen their ancestors themselves.
At that moment, Long Suxin was covered in goosebumps. It wasn't because the banner had been handed to Ji Feng, but because he felt that he had become part of this era. At that instant, he seemed to hear the cry of the age.
"Let the storm rage even fiercer!"
As Long Suxin sighed with emotion, Sage Yan placed the banner in Ji Feng's hands. The new era and the old seemed to exchange places at that very moment.
"Sage Feili, I have entrusted even Niuzao's Banner to Ji. Now it is time for you to take a stand! In my eyes, no one loves and cherishes our tribe more than Ji does. We are Pandaren. We are free... We should not be slaves. We should not be slaves. We. Should. Not. Be. Slaves."
Sage Yan was already frail with age, yet at that moment, his voice rang strong and full. His yearning for freedom filled him with fighting spirit and conviction. That was the power of belief.
"This..."
Sage Feili was still hesitating. At that moment, he was like a traveler lost in the tides of time. Left or right—he had no idea which way to go...
"Although removing a Sage from office has never happened before, I am willing to support Ji. Jingji Village will send a team of warriors to Shadowwind Village. At the same time, once I have settled matters in my village, I will also depart for Shadowwind Village and lend you my aid."
"Qianmo Village will send a team of warriors to help you remove the Sage."
"Xuehua Village is too weak to send warriors, but if you take Shadowwind Village, I will persuade the villagers to merge our village into Shadowwind Village."
The three Sages spoke one after another. Seeing things reach this point, Sage Feili understood that if he did not bow his head to Ji Feng today, there would be no room for negotiation.
"I cannot easily mobilize the warriors of Feili Village, but I am also willing to lend you my aid. Feili Village will send you the medicinal ingredients for brewing Qi Wine... Of course, after you remove the Sage of Shadowwind Village, I hope you can give Feili Village the method for brewing Qi Wine..."
In the end, Sage Feili lowered his head.
"Haha... Medicinal ingredients for brewing Qi Wine? Fine, it's a deal. As long as I can remove the Sage, I can give you the method for brewing Qi Wine." Ji Feng nodded and tossed Xue Nu's Spear back to Sage Feili with a wave of his hand.
"Since you agree, we should draw up a written agreement, with these four Sages serving as witnesses..." With matters having reached this point, Sage Feili no longer wanted to think about anything else.
Ji Feng nodded at those words. Before long, the group headed into the village.
"Brother Feng, the Way of the Monk consists of Qi Wine and cultivation. You've handed over both the Qi Wine and the cultivation method. What if they refuse to behave?"
"That guy looked so unwilling just now. Brother Feng, you're forgiving him just like that? That makes me unhappy."
"If you ask me, once he sends over the ingredients, we should snatch Xue Nu's Spear back. Then we can make another profit."
Clearly, some viewers still had not grasped the situation. Their attention remained on Xue Nu's Spear, while Ji Feng had already set his sights on Feili Village. Once he subdued the Shadowwind Clan, Feili Village might become his next target.
"Brothers and sisters of the livestream, once we wipe out the landlords of Shadowwind Village, if Feili Village dares to step out of line, we'll wipe them out along with them. You people are too young, too simple. When the time comes, the villages will all be mine, so why would I need a bicycle..."
Ji Feng joked.
"I never said I needed a bicycle. Is the streamer brain-damaged? Or did he forget to take his medicine..."
"Right, right, right... The villages are all Brother Feng's, so why would he need a bicycle? The guy above is obviously young. Back when Brother Feng was showing off, you were probably still a tadpole."
"That was back in 2001. It's normal for elementary school kids today not to understand. Besides playing LoL, what the hell do they know..."
"Haha, the wind is blowing so hard I can barely breathe. Coach, I want to learn how to modify bicycles."
The chat was bursting with laughter. Too young, too simple.
"How do those generic webnovels usually write their blurbs? How about we use an exciting title next time? What do you all think: The Greatest Livestream of All Time, or The Strongest Show-Off Livestream?"
While discussing the removal of the Sage with the Sages, Ji Feng also started bragging with the viewers.
"Trample all the geniuses of the myriad heavens beneath our feet. Our goal is to become the strongest man in history. Anyone who refuses to accept it will be crushed..."
"No, no, no. How can an epic like Warcraft use that fantasy show-off style? It should use urban show-off style. Pure elves, seductive Pandaren girls, the elf beauty's personal bodyguard... I think it works!"
"Brother Feng, I'm your loyal viewer. In my opinion, use these four characters as the title! The first time you fought Shanbu was Desperate Counterattack, then the story with the elves was Iron-Fisted Man, and after coming here it was Ambition Across Heaven and Earth. The next arc should be Hero's True Colors."
"Hero's True Colors, good, good, good... As expected of a true brother, always able to find the title that suits my livestream best. Though I tried my best to hide it, everyone still saw through everything I've done. Looks like I need to keep an even lower profile from now on."
"What are you saying, Brother Feng? You're too polite, too polite."
"Brother, your wisdom is unmatched, and you are incomparably humble as well. Surely everyone who sees you must adore you..."
"I can't compare to Brother Feng's handsomeness, can't compare at all."
Without realizing it, Ji Feng and that viewer had exchanged a round of mutual flattery.
"The harder the wind blows, the more my heart ****, because the wind is blowing so hard I can't open my eyes..."
"Damn the guy next door... He can even brag about this. As expected of Brother Feng..."
Amid the songs and laughter, the number above the livestream finally climbed to 170 million. He now had enough point coins to advance directly to Lv. 6.
