Chapter 801: Chapter 604: Sweeping Across the World
Looking at the black dragon coiled in mid-air, stretching over twenty to thirty meters long, covered entirely with thorns, the venue with more than three hundred people felt exceptionally silent.
Many trainees widened their eyes, full of incredulity, with their mouths slightly open, but unable to utter a word.
They were not intimidated by the dragon’s might, just unwilling, and unable to believe the scene before them.
"Is this real?"
A trainee’s face turned pale, his spirit somewhat dazed, staring blankly at the black dragon, mumbling to himself. His voice was trembling slightly, and his eyes were filled with confusion.
Yun Kai becoming a king, they could still comfort themselves that it was due to Ancestral Demonization.
That is exceedingly rare, a legacy from extraordinary ancestors’ bloodline, such a talent is just enviable.
There is no comparison with such chosen ones. But when Ye Qiu also became a king, those comforting reasons lost their persuasiveness.
Whatever reasons they find, it is to no avail.
Ye Qiu refined the Thorny Demon Dragon, which ranks 17th on the Earth Chart as a Divine Level Demon Spirit, with a level so high that no one present could rival, but even with such high talent, Ye Qiu did not refine a Celestial Chart Demon Spirit.
Nor did he have any bloodline talent.
Similarly, he is only 22 years old.
Everyone exchanged glances, their expressions were quite fascinating.
"The world record for the youngest king is 27 years old, right?"
Someone murmured, and this comment brought a feeling of inadequacy to many.
A 22-year-old king is simply astounding; if not witnessed with their own eyes, no one would dare believe it.
Moreover, it’s not just one, but two appeared in succession; soon there might be even more.
In every country, every city, a king is qualified to become a guardian.
In Hua Country’s Twelve Base Cities, Shangjing is the nation’s capital, with the most guardians among the base cities, yet even so, there are only eighteen, which indicates how rare and precious a king is.
In many small and medium countries, the strongest combat force is the king.
Ye Qiu and Yun Kai, before even graduating from university, have already become kings.
If they wish, they can become guardians, becoming heroes in the eyes of millions of families, one of the highest and most powerful in a city.
Those who could participate in the King Becoming plan and successfully apprentice, even as aides, were outstanding under the king’s level.
They had talent, strength, and a strong belief.
But now, their belief was shattered by two 22-year-old kings, their mentality broke entirely.
"Let’s go, out of sight, out of mind."
"Alas, comparing oneself to others could be infuriating. I probably have to drink a bit tonight to fall asleep."
"The Avengers Alliance is truly going to rise."
At this moment, they could no longer enter the cultivation state again, the spiritual qi in the venue was nearly exhausted, and most importantly, their mentality was broken.
The trainees left the Spiritual Power Hall with complex emotions.
The enormous black dragon turned into black light and dissipated; facing the others’ eyes, Ye Qiu appeared calm after landing, looking indifferent.
If he were the first to become a king in the alliance, he might have been unable to restrain his excitement, but as the second, there was no need to be overly thrilled.
"Congratulations, congratulations!"
Lin Feng and his group came forward to congratulate Ye Qiu.
Everyone was joyful and excited.
Double happiness!
Originally, Yun Kai becoming a king was already enough to surprise everyone.
Nobody expected Ye Qiu to follow suit and become a king, with the interval not exceeding ten minutes.
The birth of the two great kings already signaled the rising of the Avengers Alliance, truly having the confidence to confront all major forces.
"Hit again."
Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi exchanged glances, both with a bitter smile on their faces.
Ye Xing remembered clearly that two years ago, in the rookie challenge, Ye Qiu challenged him.
At that time, he was one of the top ten All-Stars of the Glory Alliance, and collectively recognized as the number one Frenzy Warrior in the alliance.
And Ye Qiu, not yet graduated from university, was just a junior.
At that time, he was already at the peak of the Seventh Grade, if not for participating in the Glory Battle, he could have stepped into the Eighth Grade at any time.
And Ye Qiu had just stepped into the Fifth Grade.
But now, Ye Qiu has become a king earlier than him.
"I originally thought as long as I worked hard enough, I could defeat talent, but now it seems I was overthinking."
Yun Tianqi sighed, a little emotional.
At the age of 18 on Awakening Day, he refined a Sixth Tier Gale Mantis.
He was not a genius, not even moderately gifted.
Knowing his own average talent, he worked harder and more disciplined than his peers.
Day after day, he swung his blades without interruption. With his Double Blade Technique, he was noticed by the Thunder Club and entered the Glory Alliance.
The Gale Mantis, originally only a Sixth Tier, has now evolved into the Ninth Tier Devil Mantis.
His tale is extremely inspirational, motivating countless people with average talent.
However, in front of Yun Kai and Ye Qiu, these chosen ones, his belief was easily destroyed.
"Haha, you two don’t need to feel too inferior, I haven’t become a king yet either,"
Lin Feng couldn’t help but laugh, hearing Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi’s self-mockery.
Effort indeed can overcome talent, but it can’t overcome those chosen by destiny.
Compared to the frustration felt by the two, Lin Feng was very calm.
He understood this fact a long time ago.
Otherwise, on Awakening Day, knowing that there would be danger to his life in the future, he wouldn’t have resolutely chosen to refine the Nightmare.
If effort works, why would you need talent?
Geniuses put in effort too and they aren’t short on resources.
The least scarce thing in this world is hardworking people.
Among the students, there are countless who train harder than them. Some students train so intensively that even Lin Feng feels ashamed in comparison.
"But still, you haven’t become a king yet." Ye Xing added with a smile.
Lin Feng’s comfort did have some effect, even a monster like Lin Feng has not become a king yet, so they don’t really need to feel too embarrassed.
"Congratulations."
Yun Kai also congratulated Ye Qiu, not saying much and then fell silent.
"I didn’t have time to congratulate you just now, and here you are congratulating me first. Congratulations to you too."
Ye Qiu smiled.
If it wasn’t for Yun Kai’s encouragement and motivation, he wouldn’t have become king so early.
"Alright, no need to be too polite among ourselves. Let’s go find Little Sister Dong and the others and have a good meal to celebrate," Lin Feng said.
The others naturally had no objection, with double happiness, it was naturally time to celebrate.
Training day and night, with even sleep time compressed to two hours, they indeed needed a good relaxation.
As Lin Feng and the others walked out of the Spiritual Power Hall, the news about Yun Kai and Ye Qiu becoming kings had already spread like wildfire, and the passing students cast complex and envious gazes in their direction.
From time to time, unfamiliar students came forward to greet them, congratulating Ye Qiu and Yun Kai.
Compared to before, the students were much more enthusiastic.
"Kai, you became king!"
Dong Yunan’s voice rang from thirty meters away, filled with surprise and excitement.
Upon receiving the news, she immediately stopped training and rushed over. At this moment, she rushed in front of Yun Kai, looked up, her face full of excitement as she asked.
"Yes."
Yun Kai said with a smile, reaching out to rub Dong Yunan’s head.
With the improvement of strength, Little Sister Dong’s height did not grow, still at one meter sixty, or even less than one meter sixty. She never specifies her exact height.
In front of Yun Kai, she seemed like a child, needing to look up even when speaking.
"Amazing, Ye Qiu is amazing too."
Alongside admiration, Dong Yunan was a bit envious.
Ye Qiu smiled quietly.
After Dong Yunan arrived, Yang Ningbing also quickly appeared, and everyone arrived one after another, including the long unseen Gongshan, who hurried over carrying his sister.
"How come you’re here too?" Lin Feng asked.
At this time, Xiaoxiao was still deep in sleep.
"Good news! Of course, I came!"
Gongshan’s face could not hide his excitement. As he spoke, he offered congratulations to Yun Kai and Ye Qiu.
Facing teammates who became kings, he felt no pressure, only joy.
"Thank you."
Ye Qiu came to Xiaoxiao’s side, reached out to touch her face, surprised and asked, "Did Xiaoxiao grow up?"
Everyone’s eyes fell on Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao easily passed Gui Ling’s test, successfully became a disciple, with Gongshan becoming his sister’s helper.
The Demon Spirit refined by Gui Ling was unknown, but nine times out of ten it was Ghost Type, therefore his specialty was controlling ghosts, and his attack methods involved attacking opponents using ghost entities.
He found Xiaoxiao, who could devour ghosts, absolutely astonishing.
Initially, Lin Feng and the others were worried about the Gongshan siblings being too weak and being bullied after becoming disciples, but this concern was completely unnecessary.
Gui Ling treated Xiaoxiao like his own granddaughter, who would dare to bully her?
Because Xiaoxiao could devour ghosts, Gui Ling would bring her along during his cultivation, allowing him as a mentor to have no worries in his cultivation.
"Yes, grew two centimeters taller."
Gongshan smiled, turning to glance at his sister with a doting expression.
"Not only taller but also considerably stronger. Xiaoxiao can now simultaneously control three Eighth Grade ghosts or one Ninth Tier ghost."
Gongshan lowered his voice, his words full of undisguised pride.
He was very satisfied with the current state of life.
His sister grows every day, her strength increasing, most importantly her sleep time has decreased, with 10 hours of wakefulness each day allowing simple communication with him.
"Amazing!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Bear in mind, Xiaoxiao is only six years old, yet can control Ninth Tier fierce ghosts, imagine her capabilities once grown up.
From a certain perspective, Xiaoxiao is the most terrifying existence in the Avengers Alliance.
"Enough, no more talking, let’s go have a good meal."
Once Dean Bu arrived, Lin Feng waved his hand, and the group headed to the Food Hall.
While Lin Feng and the others were celebrating here, the news of Yun Kai and Ye Qiu becoming kings swept the world at a remarkable speed, occupying the front page headlines in all countries.
