Clown Feng Xiaotian

Feng Xiaotian had previously been convinced that Yao Zi was the strongest member of the Botanical Academy Team, but Ning Rongrong's performance today had slapped him hard across the face.

That was why he had come over to the Botanical Academy Team and specifically asked that question.

Lan Yu looked at Feng Xiaotian. "Feng Xiaotian, what do you want?"

"You're the only guy on the Botanical Academy Team. Does that mean you're the strongest one?"

"Get to the point. If you have nothing to say, leave."

"Hmph, I challenge you. Tomorrow, we'll both be the first to take the field. If I lose, I'll concede on behalf of Godwind Academy. If you lose, you'll concede on behalf of Botanical Academy. Dare to accept?"

Upon hearing Feng Xiaotian's words, all the other girls on the Botanical Academy Team burst into laughter, as if they had heard an especially hilarious joke.

"HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA!"

The piercing laughter made Feng Xiaotian frown even more deeply. "What are you all laughing at?"

Lan Yu waved a hand, signaling them to stop.

"Feng Xiaotian, are you sure you want to challenge me?"

"That's right. Just tell me whether you dare to accept."

"Heh, fine. I accept. I hope you won't regret it."

"I definitely won't regret it. See you tomorrow."

With that, Feng Xiaotian turned and left. After he was gone, the girls started laughing again.

"HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHA!"

"This Feng Xiaotian, who gave him the confidence to provoke you, Lord Sage?"

"At the age when youth stirs, hormones take over the brain, and actions always come before thought."

"What does that mean?"

Ning Rongrong asked in confusion, and Yao Zi raised her hand and jumped out.

"I know! I've long heard that Feng Xiaotian from Godwind Academy likes Huo Wu from Blazing Flame Academy, but Huo Wu ignores him. Obviously, Feng Xiaotian wants to prove himself in front of Huo Wu."

"Then didn't he just kick an iron plate?"

"Heh, he brought it on himself. He has no one else to blame."

After returning, Feng Xiaotian kept feeling vaguely uneasy. He chalked it up to his imagination and seriously began making preparations for the match.

Before long, the next day arrived. Feng Xiaotian from Godwind Academy stood on the arena early.

As for Lan Yu, he only slowly walked onto the arena shortly before the match began.

On Shrek Academy's side, Liu Erlong was very surprised when she saw Lan Yu step onto the arena.

"Why did he go up there? Is Feng Xiaotian worth him taking action personally?"

Having been thoroughly beaten by Lan Yu once, Liu Erlong naturally knew just how formidable he was. Using him to deal with Feng Xiaotian was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

"Perhaps he has some other purpose. Watch carefully and see what exactly he wants to do."

Yu Xiaogang's expression was also solemn. It seemed that every time he encountered Lan Yu, nothing good happened.

On the arena, Feng Xiaotian was still greeting the Blazing Flame Academy side.

"Huo Wu, watch how I help you wash away your humiliation today."

"Idiot!"

Huo Wu cursed under her breath and turned her head away, unwilling even to look at him.

If Lan Yu had heard Huo Wu's words, he would have agreed. In some ways, Feng Xiaotian really was quite an idiot.

As the referee announced the start of the match, Feng Xiaotian swiftly revealed four Soul Rings—two yellow and two purple—and used Gale Double Wings to fly into the air, looking down at Lan Yu from above.

One crimson Soul Ring after another appeared beneath Lan Yu's feet. One, two, three, four, five, six. They stopped only after six rings had appeared.

Those who had learned about Lan Yu before were not surprised, but everyone else erupted into an uproar.

"A... a Six-Ring Spirit Emperor? Is this real? And six hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings! Is this guy even human?"

Shui Yue'er's jaw nearly dropped to the ground, while the cold expression on Shui Bing'er's face vanished completely.

"I think I understand now why the Botanical Academy Team has a male member. The entire Botanical Academy Team becoming so powerful is probably related to him."

"If only he had joined our academy."

"Stop dreaming. The dean would never agree to let a male student join Skywater Academy."

"Not necessarily. When it comes to a genius like this, Skywater Academy might make an exception."

The discussion below the arena was lively, but Feng Xiaotian on the arena had already gone completely blank.

He finally understood why those girls from the Botanical Academy Team had laughed yesterday. He was simply a clown.

At that moment, Xue Ye looked at Lan Yu and asked Ning Fengzhi, "Sect Master Ning, do you know anything about this young man?"

"Your Majesty, I mentioned yesterday that my daughter was fortunate enough to receive a god's blessing, allowing her Martial Soul to evolve. This little brother Lan Yu is that god's representative."

"What! A god's representative? So that's how it is. No wonder he is so extraordinary."

Xue Ye's eyes shifted as he wondered what he was thinking about.

Lan Yu also spread his wings and flew into the air.

"That's... an External Soul Bone!"

Yu Xiaogang cried out in surprise again.

"Teacher, what is an External Soul Bone?"

Tang San stared at the wings behind Lan Yu. He had a feeling that those things should originally have been his.

"Normally, there are only six kinds of Spirit Bones: the Left Arm Bone, Right Arm Bone, Left Leg Bone, Right Leg Bone, Head Spirit Bone, and Torso Spirit Bone.

"But besides those six, there is another special kind of Spirit Bone: the External Soul Bone.

"The defining trait of an External Soul Bone is that it can grow along with a Soul Master. It is even more precious than an ordinary Spirit Bone."

Tang San looked at Lan Yu, his eyes filled with greed and resentment. Damn it! Why does he get to monopolize so many good things? I'm clearly the peerless genius with Twin Martial Souls and innately full Soul Power.

Lan Yu did not care what Tang San was thinking. He looked at Feng Xiaotian and said, "Do you still want to fight?"

After a moment of silence, Feng Xiaotian finally said, "I know I'm definitely not your opponent, but I can't concede. Come and try my Self-Created Soul Skill!"

Lan Yu sighed softly and casually waved a hand. Hypnotic Spore instantly enveloped Feng Xiaotian.

Sensing that something was wrong, Feng Xiaotian wanted to hold his breath, but it was already too late.

In an instant, the hypnotized Feng Xiaotian fell straight from the sky.

A teacher from Godwind Academy rushed over and caught Feng Xiaotian, then politely gestured to Lan Yu.

Lan Yu nodded as well, then said, "I am a sage of the Sage Lord of Fungi. The Sage Lord of Fungi is the god who grants people fullness. Everyone, whenever you have eaten your fill, please thank the Sage Lord of Fungi for his blessing."

As Lan Yu spoke, green mushrooms sprouted everywhere throughout the venue.

"These delicious green mushrooms are also a blessing from the Sage Lord of Fungi. Let me tell you a secret: the hotter the flames, the more they bring out the mushrooms' fragrance. This is a rare delicacy."

"Really?"

Huo Wu picked up a green mushroom and condensed the hottest flames she could produce to burn it. An ordinary mushroom would surely have been scorched black in an instant.

Yet not only was the green mushroom not burned, it also gave off an enticing fragrance.
