"Xiao Huo, you won."
"I'll honor my bet. From now on, you are the captain of the Blazing Fire Battle Team."
Flowing Fire was helped up from below the stage.
Lin Feng cast a congratulatory glance.
This guy's potential seemed stronger than the Shi brothers.
But that was all.
Just a bunch of weaklings pecking at each other.
Alas!
Lin Feng shook his head regretfully, letting out a sigh.
Huo Wushuang watched Lin Feng frown, sighing repeatedly.
That look, was it regret?
What was he regretting?
Could it be that he wanted to fight?
But it was a pity that this was an internal matter for their Blazing Academy Battle Team, so he couldn't participate?
It made sense. He had long heard that the Royal Academy only recruited a bunch of good-for-nothings and wastrels.
Lin Feng, this genius, must be an anomaly among them.
A lonely king always craves the affirmation of his peers.
Huo Wushuang nodded with confidence, stepping forward and patting Lin Feng on the shoulder.
"Lin Feng, don't sigh anymore."
"If you want to fight, then I'll have a match with you."
Lin Feng was somewhat puzzled by Huo Wushuang's sudden, nonsensical words.
What? What was I thinking?
Why a match?
Before Lin Feng could react, Huo Wushuang leaped onto the arena.
Xiao Huo, being sensible, quickly stepped down.
"Lin Feng, come up. Let's spar."
Huo Wushuang extended his hand, inviting him sincerely.
"Lin Feng?"
"Is he the Lin Feng from the Junior Royal Academy that the Dean often mentioned before?"
"Isn't that Huo Wushuang? Who did he say he was going to fight??"
"The Dean's son is going to fight the genius from the Royal Academy? This will be a good show."
A commotion instantly rose from below the stage, and all eyes turned towards Lin Feng.
Even Huo Wu, standing below, looked at Huo Wushuang on the stage with a blank expression.
Brother… challenging Lin Feng?
Why?
Could it be…
She remembered what she had said when she was little.
Huo Wu: "Hmph! I, Huo Wu, will only marry someone who can defeat me!"
Could it really be?
Does this annoying brother think I like Lin Feng and wants to test his strength for me?
Damn it, it's clearly Lin Feng who likes me, okay.
I haven't even agreed yet, what's Huo Wushuang so eager about!
Annoying!
Huo Wu complained internally, but a shy blush appeared on her face.
Lin Feng looked at Huo Wu's squirming appearance beside him, feeling somewhat bewildered.
No, why are you blushing?
I wasn't even flirting with you right now.
Didn't you see your brother on stage about to beat me up?
"This Lin Feng isn't scared, is he?"
"Look, he's been exchanging glances with Huo Wu down there. He's probably afraid to go up and wants Huo Wu to help him."
Lin Feng heard the discussion from a few people close to him, his face instantly darkened, and he felt somewhat speechless internally.
I'm scared to go up? What the f***.
Who are you cursing?
He had once broken Wang Lei's arm and, in a fit of rage, crippled Wang Xiang's limbs. When had he ever been afraid?
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed, no longer paying attention to the words of those around him, and he walked straight onto the stage.
"Hahahaha! Lin Feng, I knew you were this kind of person."
"Today, I will fulfill your wish!"
Lin Feng helplessly waved his hand, assuming a battle-ready stance.
Below the stage, Huo Wu stared at Huo Wushuang with fierce eyes.
If you dare to injure Lin Feng today, you're dead.
On the stage, Huo Wushuang suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if he had caught a glimpse of his sister's fierce gaze out of the corner of his eye.
It must be an illusion, Huo Wushuang comforted himself internally.
She must be looking at Lin Feng, right?
After all, Lin Feng had ignored Huo Wu at the beginning today, which angered her.
She was probably still angry about that at the moment.
It seemed he would definitely have to defeat Lin Feng later to properly appease his sister.
"Sorry, Lin Feng."
"Huo Wushuang, 13 years old, Spirit: Unicorn Fire Dragon, 26th-level attack system Spirit Grandmaster."
Huo Wushuang rubbed his nose, and two yellow spirit rings, a perfect configuration, lit up at his feet.
The audience below gasped in surprise.
"As expected of the Dean's son."
Even Xiao Huo, who had just walked down, was somewhat surprised internally.
As the strongest member of the current battle team, Wushuang's talent was comparable to, if not superior to, his own.
"Lin Feng, I'll let you attack first."
"After all, I am older than you."
Huo Wushuang smiled slightly, thinking that no matter how strong the outside rumors were, how strong could a 12-year-old be?
He secretly made up his mind to spar with Lin Feng for a few moves after Lin Feng attacked.
He would defeat him after letting him have his fun, after all, he still had to save face for his reputation.
At this moment, Lin Feng just stood there without releasing his Spirit.
"Are you—sure?"
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, looking incredulous.
"Come on, don't be shy."
Huo Wushuang adopted a defensive stance, his eyes full of confidence, eager to try.
"First Spirit Ability, Fire Dragon Strangulation."
Lin Feng helplessly shook his head and extended his right hand, releasing his Spirit Ability.
A massive fire dragon assailed Huo Wushuang.
Huo Wushuang didn't have time to think.
"Second Spirit Ability, Fire Dragon Scales."
A shield formed from dragon scales appeared in front of Huo Wushuang.
Huo Wushuang struggled to withstand the powerful impact of the fire dragon in front of him, while stammering to himself.
"You… you're telling me this is a 12-year-old?"
Below the stage, Huo Wu and the crowd watched Lin Feng on stage, calm and composed, effortlessly performing, with astonished expressions.
"Ah~"
Huo Wushuang let out a roar, increasing his spirit power, barely managing to withstand the force of the impact and stabilize himself.
But the fire dragon in front of him continued to charge towards him.
Opposite, Lin Feng's palm moved slightly, increasing the power of the fire dragon.
Thump, thump, thump, thump.
The Dragon Scale Shield was instantly shattered, and Huo Wushuang was sent flying, tumbling several times on the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough."
Huo Wushuang's body trembled, and he constantly coughed up blood from the corner of his mouth. Each rapid breath was accompanied by intense pain.
The entire arena was silent, remaining so for a long time.
Xiao Huo, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but swallow.
What kind of monster was this Lin Feng?
Huo Wu went forward with a worried expression and helped Huo Wushuang up.
A healing system Spirit Elder also quickly went up to heal Huo Wushuang.
"It's nothing serious, just some superficial wounds."
"Are you alright?"
Lin Feng walked down from the stage and also eagerly stepped forward to ask.
He had controlled his strength at the end, but he hadn't expected this outcome.
"I'm fine, I was careless."
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful, Lin Feng."
"It seems our Blazing Academy won't be able to find an opponent for you."
Huo Wushuang clutched his chest in pain, a crestfallen expression on his face.
"I wasn't looking for an opponent."
Lin Feng felt a wave of speechlessness internally.
Now, at least based on Huo Wushuang's words, he could deduce that Huo Wushuang had mistakenly thought he was looking for a fight. It seemed the 'wild imagination' keyword had taken effect.
"Brother Wushuang, you misunderstood me."
"I really didn't think about finding an opponent."
Lin Feng said to Huo Wushuang with a serious expression.
"I know, you don't have to comfort me, Lin Feng."
"Losing is losing, there's nothing to be ashamed of."
"From the very beginning, when I saw the look in your eyes as you watched Xiao Huo, I could tell your desire for battle."
"I thought I could be your opponent."
"Now it seems I overestimated myself."
"Father was right, you are indeed a genius."
"I'm not worthy to be your opponent. I can accept this result."
Huo Wushuang's eyes were downcast, as if he had negated the results of his hard work over so many years.
Lin Feng didn't know what to say for a moment.
He looked at Huo Wushuang, whose Spirit seemed broken, and felt helpless.
