Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 809 - 611: So Fast It’s Scary

Yu Qiao entered the state of Invisibility and continued to weave through the crowd. It took half an hour of inquiries with fifty or sixty people before he found the remaining two buyers, a man and a woman, both foreigners.In Yu Qiao’s eyes, they didn’t look particularly impressive.

The fact that they possess Origin Power shows that they both have Emperor-level backers.

Their strength was quite ordinary; the man was at the Peak of Ninth Grade with refinement of Five Tier Demon Spirit.

The woman was a Ninth Grade Demon Spirit Master, refined Ninth Tier Demon Spirit, absorbed nine Soul Skills but possessed only one Diamond Soul Skill, and her Soul Skill combination was quite standard.

These two had ordinary strength and no other advantages, making them the weakest among the students.

By offering a month’s worth of Origin Power to join the Avengers Alliance team, failing doesn’t require any compensation, and they can still earn a billion; they naturally have no complaints.

The only annoyance is having to endure that nagging voice.

"You’re making a big profit this time."

"It’s like you’re leveling up with your eyes closed."

"If I didn’t find you pleasing, this spot wouldn’t be offered to you."

"You need to remember my kindness."

"I’m the deputy captain in the Avengers Alliance. Besides Lin Feng, I’m the biggest deal."

"Understand what I mean?"

Yu Qiao said as he walked.

His chatter made the two buyers slightly frown, forcing them to remain silent.

If not for the lack of teams willing to take them, they really would want to turn around and leave.

Yu Qiao babbled to himself and soon brought the two to Lin Feng’s side.

"I think we’re at a loss; the price too low. For two months of Origin Power, surely many would want it."

Yu Qiao said to Lin Feng, completely oblivious to the slightly embarrassed buyer next to him: "Shall we raise the price? After all, no contract was signed, and that chubby guy hesitated before, seems somewhat regretful, maybe we can give him another chance to choose."

"I’m not regretting it."

Baron quickly responded with a slightly embarrassed expression, worrying if Lin Feng would accept Yu Qiao’s suggestion.

Two months of Origin Power, the price is indeed too high.

Considering they don’t get any reward points, only a chance to advance.

No one knows when the fourth plan will start; if it starts within half a month, it’ll be a loss.

He glanced at the other two buyers, and the three of them looked at each other helplessly, all with the same thought: this squinty-eyed guy is really annoying.

Fortunately, Lin Feng didn’t take Yu Qiao’s words seriously; he simply asked their names, exchanged a few pleasantries, and didn’t inquire about their skills.

Clearly, he did not intend to have them participate in battle.

Avengers Alliance with seventeen members, plus Baron and the two others, totaling twenty, the team had been assembled.

At this point, more than an hour had passed, and of the 55 teams, only about half had been formed.

After two hours, the chaotic situation gradually began to calm down.

By this time, most of the teams had been completed.

There were still quite a few people who hadn’t joined a team, one or two hundred, who had to cobble together groups haphazardly, without even considering professional synergy, clearly not holding much hope for advancement.

Among these teams, there was one most special group, also the last to form.

They numbered less than twenty, only a pitiful thirteen members.

The second plan, Mentor Battle, involves 37 mentors, each recruiting 15 students, and each student can bring one helper, totaling 1100 people.

people divided into 55 teams, twenty per team, the numbers fit perfectly, but during the three-month mentor teaching period, seven were injured for various reasons and could not participate in the third plan.

Faced with the predatory gazes around them, the members of this team had expressions of bitterness and embarrassment.

Already at the bottom in terms of strength, and only having thirteen members, who else would be the target for elimination but them?

Clearly, they’ve already become the most popular prey.

"Team formation concluded."

With Igor’s voice ringing out, the next moment, 55 Fire Banners descended from the sky, "boom boom boom," crashing at the right corner of the 55 platforms, one-meter-high Fire Banners, completely crimson like a fiery blaze.

As the Fire Banners appeared, the atmosphere around them condensed instantly.

"Feeling kinda tense!"

Dong Yunan’s body slightly tensed, speaking in a low voice.

Yun Kai smiled, patting her head.

"No worries, you’ve got me." Yu Qiao, ever confident, said.

"You’ve got it all figured out." Yun Tianqi retorted sarcastically.

Baron and the two others exchanged glances, somewhat puzzled as to why they weren’t even slightly anxious?

However, it was this inexplicable confidence that allowed them to relax.

Before Yu Qiao could retort, Igor’s voice rang out again:

"Among the 55 teams, you can freely choose an arena. Inserting your team’s Fire Banner into your opponent’s arena signifies a challenge!"

At this moment, the students all looked at the strong teams including the Child of Light, Alex, hoping they would choose first to avoid being near their arenas.

The 55 arenas were of different heights; the closer to the center, the higher the position.

If you consider the arenas as a circle, the arrangement was circular and concentric.

Under various scrutinizing gazes, Alex smiled slightly, and a group of twenty people directly went to the arena in the very center. One man pulled up the Fire Banner from the arena, then possessed by a Demon Spirit, fluttered his wings and hovered in the air, observing the surroundings, seemingly ready for a challenge at any moment.

"So confident!"

Many students sighed.

This was the core position, most convenient for observation and also the easiest for challenges and being challenged.

After their actions, other recognized strong teams also quickly chose arena positions, all fairly close to the core position.

After they made their choices, other teams began to move. Lin Feng and his team picked a spot near the periphery.

The group led by Chen Dali was just to their left.

At this moment, Chen Dali and others were relaxed. They already planned to have the Avengers Alliance guard their banner; success or failure was beyond their control, so there was no pressure.

"Aren’t they just here to give away points?"

Yu Qiao chuckled, looking at the team of thirteen about seven to eighty meters to the right, separated by three arenas.

Lin Feng had now pulled up their Fire Banner, also looking at the team of thirteen, his gaze resting on a middle-aged man, a gray light flashing in his dark black eyes.

"The rules of the match have been introduced. I’ll add some details here. The moment the Fire Banner is inserted into the opponent’s arena, the challenge officially begins. Both sides have two minutes to prepare.

If you’re not confident in defending the arena, and choose to have someone guard the flag, it must be completed within five minutes, based on when the Fire Banner was inserted into the guarding side’s arena; exceeding the time means accepting a challenge.

After each battle, there’s a one-minute swapping time. Exceeding this time counts as a loss, and instructors and backstage staff will time it. Within this minute, teammates can provide healing but no Pill consumption; violating the rules results in the elimination of all twenty members. The losing side can immediately swap in a new person without waiting for the time to end."

Finishing the instructions, Igor glanced around, wasted no words, directly announcing: "Commence the flag snatch."

In the next moment, figures soared into the air, holding Fire Banners, and flew onto other arenas, forcefully thrusting the banners into the stone surface.

At the moment Igor’s words fell, Lin Feng disappeared, replaced by a bewildered-looking middle-aged man.

By this time, Lin Feng had already appeared in that special team, and with a ’bang’, he planted his Fire Banner in the center of the arena.

After inserting the Fire Banner, Lin Feng slightly raised his head, a young man in black holding a Fire Banner appeared above him, diving downwards.

"Lin Feng!"

The youth flapped his wings, his rapidly falling body stopped abruptly, looking at the suddenly appearing Lin Feng, he was first stunned, then a wry smile appeared on his lips, flying off with the Fire Banner, crestfallen.

His location was right next to the ’prime spot’, initially thinking he could easily snatch a flag.

With two Fire Banners, facing other teams afterward, they could potentially have a team guard the flag; it seemed like a sure win, but who knew Lin Feng would beat them to it.

"Sorry."

Looking at the faces of surprise around, Lin Feng cracked a slight smile: "Challenge."

Because of Lin Feng’s arrival, the once pitied team of thirteen was now reduced to twelve, and after the initial shock, they could only smile wryly.

"Lin Feng, don’t you know a man shouldn’t be too fast?"

Lin Feng’s sudden presence, appearing right beside her, startled one woman in the team, making her tremble. She looked at Lin Feng and smiled wryly: "You’re so fast, it’s scary!"

Lin Feng: "..."

Hey, hey, hey, I’m here to challenge, haven’t even settled down, and you’re already off track?

"The divine-level soul skill is indeed fast."

"My thirty-year single status speed isn’t even that fast."

"We might be the first team to be challenged!"

"Not just that, but probably the first team to be eliminated as well."

The twelve people, coming back to their senses from shock, started chatting as if no other existed.

As though Lin Feng didn’t exist.

Lin Feng: "....."

Hey, hey, hey, I’m here to challenge!

The competition lasts five hours, time is precious.

The chatter continued.

Just as Lin Feng was about to interrupt their conversation, the woman who had spoken before went to the back of the arena, pulled out their Fire Banner, and handed it over with a faintly contemptuous smile, saying, "Since you’re the fastest and want it the most, here you go!"

Lin Feng: "....."
