Chapter 300: Chapter 299: Beaten into a Human Stick in 2 Moves
From dozens of yards away, Qin Feng sensed a malicious presence. He turned to see Zhao Xuanmeng approaching, radiating aggression and ill intent. freeweɓnovel.cøm
He was with a group of a dozen or so people, each of them wreathed in Evil Qi. Their gazes were sinister, filled with cruelty and viciousness. Clearly, none of them were weaklings.
Qin Feng’s gaze fell upon their leader, Zhao Xuanmeng.
He had a slender build, but he carried the fierce aura of a wolf. He had a hooked nose, and his narrow eyes glinted with a faint green light, hinting at a deep-seated savagery. His hair was styled up under a martial crown, and he wore dark green robes. He projected a heavy, imposing presence, like the king of a pack of beasts.
Qin Feng secretly used a Secret Technique to inspect him, and what he saw were more than ten terrifying Spirit Veins writhing within Zhao Xuanmeng’s body, baring fangs and brandishing claws.
Qin Feng was secretly astonished. All of these Spirit Veins were condensed from Evil Qi. There were nearly a dozen types of Top-grade Evil Qi, including Blood Fiend, Ice Fiend, Iron-Blood Fiend, Celestial Demon Fiend, and Netherworld Fiend.
Spirit Veins condensed from this kind of Evil Qi were exceptionally terrifying.
’Damn, this Zhao Xuanmeng actually wants to walk the path of the Celestial Fiend and condense the Celestial Fiend Origin. What a pity. The fool has no idea it’s a dead end. As the saying goes, to be wreathed in Evil Qi is to have death at your door. Anyone who forges Spirit Veins from Evil Qi, Death Qi, or other nefarious energies will be spurned by Destiny itself. They’ll be plagued by misfortune and die an early death. Very few are fated to be tough enough to survive the countless tribulations and advance to the Sea of Reincarnation!’
As he pondered this, a light flashed in Qin Feng’s eyes, but his expression remained impassive.
But it was undeniable that Martial Artists who condensed Celestial Fiend Spirit Veins were indeed far stronger than their peers.
’Still, in my eyes, he’s nothing but trash!’
He added this thought silently.
Zhao Xuanmeng walked over and said, "Qin Feng, I have something to discuss with you!"
Zhao Xuanmeng’s gaze was icy as he stood with his arms crossed, his aura oppressive.
Beside Qin Feng, Zhao Zhijing started to speak, but a single glance from Zhao Xuanmeng made his face turn pale. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth—he had suffered a serious injury.
A chill flashed in Qin Feng’s eyes. He took a step forward, shielding Zhao Zhijing, a smile still on his face.
Qin Feng wanted to cripple Zhao Xuanmeng on the spot, but Sensing a powerful presence watching from the shadows, he decided to endure it for the time being.
Qin Feng said, "What can I do for you, Senior Brother Zhao?"
The green light in Zhao Xuanmeng’s eyes flickered as he gave a cold smile. "I want to borrow something from you!"
"And what might that be?" Qin Feng asked, his smile unwavering.
"Your first-place rewards: the Black Iron Battle Armor, ten thousand Points, and two hundred Merit Points!"
Zhao Xuanmeng’s expression was indifferent, but his tone was tyrannical, leaving no room for refusal.
"And if I refuse to lend them?" Qin Feng hadn’t expected that someone would already be targeting his first-place prizes from the Hidden Dragon Points Competition before he’d even received them.
’When I make my move later,’ Qin Feng thought, ’simply crippling Zhao Xuanmeng won’t be enough.’
"Then I’ll just take them myself," Zhao Xuanmeng said lightly. He paid Qin Feng no mind, certain of his victory. To him, Qin Feng was like meat on a chopping block, his for the taking.
"Zhao Xuanmeng, aren’t you going too far? We are all fellow disciples of All Stars Academy. It’s not right to treat another disciple this way!"
Baiyun and Yun Mo stepped forward, their eyes filled with anger.
This was broad-daylight robbery. Such bullying was outrageous.
"I’m doing him a favor. With his strength, do you think he’s worthy of the Black Iron Battle Armor? An innocent man gets into trouble for the treasure he carries. He should just obediently hand it over. Only in my hands can this treasure unleash its true potential!"
Zhao Xuanmeng shot Qin Feng a disdainful, sneering glance.
Baiyun and Yun Mo were about to speak again.
Zhao Xuanmeng coolly cut them off. "Enough. You two don’t need to say another word. I’m being kind by giving him a choice. Otherwise, I would have just taken it by force!"
"...You!" The two women’s elegant eyebrows bristled with rage.
"This Black Iron Battle Armor is mine. You’d best hand it over obediently. Also, about how you ’rewarded’ Junior Brother Ao Shen a few days ago—that’s another score to settle. You will kneel at the base of my Five Elements Team and reflect on your misdeeds. Otherwise, don’t blame us senior brothers for not giving you a chance!"
Zhao Xuanmeng shot Qin Feng a cold look.
Many onlookers watched as if it were a play. Lin Fei’s eyes held a strange glint, and Jin Ruyi sneered. Bai Xianyue, Luo Lie, and Ye Youming stood in the distance, watching the conflict unfold from afar.
One powerful expert after another watched the scene from a distance.
The smile on Qin Feng’s face slowly faded. This Zhao Xuanmeng was as arrogant as they came, daring to threaten someone so openly within the walls of All Stars Academy.
He was no better than a savage beast.
’And those Elders from All Stars Academy... they’re hiding somewhere, definitely watching for entertainment, waiting to see how I’ll handle this. Fine. I’ll give you all a real show!’
Qin Feng stretched his arms, then looked up at Zhao Xuanmeng and said slowly, "Are you done talking?"
Zhao Xuanmeng was taken aback for a moment. Then, a flash of killing intent appeared in his eyes. "What did you say?"
"What do I mean? I mean I’m going to cripple you. And today, if you don’t beg for mercy and call me ’Ancestor’ a thousand times, don’t even think about walking away from here!"
With a cold laugh, Qin Feng struck. The vast True Power around him instantly transformed into a Star River, surging forward like a mighty Celestial River—silent, traceless, and swift as a thunderbolt.
BOOM!
A silvery-white brilliance erupted, making it seem as if a star had risen over the plaza. The terrifying aura blasted back the nearest Condensing Vein Realm experts.
SWOOSH!
The silvery-white Star River was already in front of Zhao Xuanmeng.
By the time Zhao Xuanmeng snapped out of his shock, the boundless Star River was upon him. The immense torrent was like a tidal wave crashing down. A look of horror crossed his face as he frantically mobilized the dozen-plus Evil Qi Condensing Veins in his body, gathering them over his chest to form a shield.
PFFT!
But it was useless. Qin Feng’s Star True Power ripped right through the dozen-plus Spirit Veins condensed from Evil Qi. In the face of Qin Feng’s Heavenly Dao Level Star True Power, Zhao Xuanmeng’s Heavenly Evil True Power was like a scrap of rotten cloth. A gaping hole was torn through his defense. Zhao Xuanmeng’s face went white as Qin Feng’s palm shot through the opening like a thunderbolt and slammed into his chest.
BAM!
A tremendous force surged through him. A vertebra in Zhao Xuanmeng’s spine was obliterated, exploding into countless fragments of bone that burst out from his back.
SPLAT!
Zhao Xuanmeng coughed up a mouthful of blood, which atomized into a red mist. His face was ashen.
"Spitting up blood already? We’re just getting started!" With a cold glint in his eyes, Qin Feng brought his foot down in a brutal axe kick.
RUMBLE!
The ground cracked and a crater formed as Zhao Xuanmeng’s body was slammed deep into the earth.
Trickles of blood began to seep out from the crater.
The gush of crimson blood and the Asura Field-like scene shocked everyone. Powerful experts could tell with a single glance that the blow had shattered all of Zhao Xuanmeng’s arms and legs.
The fearsome Zhao Xuanmeng had been beaten into a limbless wreck in just two moves.
He was barely breathing.
"This is bad! The kid is ruthless! He’s about to kill Xuanmeng!" From the shadows, the expressions of two Silver Robe Elders shifted, and they prepared to rush out and intervene.
"Sigh... That Zhao Xuanmeng was putting on such a big show. This old man really thought he could take a punch. But he was defeated in one move and crippled in the second. These youngsters... if you can’t play the game, don’t make such big bets. He didn’t give me any time to mentally prepare. Now it’s too late for me to even try and save him!"
Just as Qin Feng was about to land a few more kicks...
"Young man, wait!"
"Spare his life!"
With two flashes of silver light, a pair of smiling old men appeared in front of Qin Feng.
