Each of the three methods had its pros and cons.
The first method was risky and time-consuming. The advantage was that it was the least restrictive and could be used at any time.
The second method was the safest, but it would take at least eight to ten years to become an inner sect elite disciple of Fierce Yan Sect. According to Qianqian, if a disciple of Fierce Yan Sect wanted to be promoted, strength was indispensable. However, loyalty and contribution to the sect were the most important.
If he followed the second method, he would have to waste a lot of time to increase his contribution to the sect.
The third method was the purest and simplest.
However, it was also dangerous. Every year, the death rate in Wild Yan Ling Mansion was about twenty percent.
Although it wasn't considered high, it wasn't a simple number to accumulate over the years.
Maybe he could avoid it once or twice, but so what if it was ten or twenty times?
However, there was nothing perfect in the world.
To gain, there was naturally a price to pay.
…
"Phew ~" Lin Feng let out a long breath and stood still.
He heard all kinds of bustling noises. The Genius Selection was about to begin. Outside Fierce Yan Sect, the participating martial artists were all rubbing their palms, ready to show their skills. It took five years to sharpen one's sword.
However, Lin Feng was extremely calm.
Looking up at the sky, Lin Feng's eyes were clear as if he was thinking about something.
"What's wrong?" Sima Xi saw Lin Feng stop and asked with a sly look in his eyes, "What's wrong?"
Lin Feng looked at Sima Xi. When he saw that seemingly smiling face, Lin Feng laughed in a carefree manner. "The older the ginger, the spicier it is. You have won. To be honest, I am tempted and I am willing to join Fierce Yan Sect. "Every sentence was related to Fierce Yan Sect. How could he not know Sima Xi's intention?
However, Sima Xi's words had hit his weak spot, his weak point.
He was not against joining Fierce Yan Sect. All along, it was just that …
He lacked a reason.
Now, the reason had appeared.
Leaving Wild Yan Ling Mansion and heading to Great Yan Continent had always been his goal.
"There is no winning or losing," Sima Xi smiled faintly. "No matter if it is for you or Fierce Yan Sect, it is a win-win situation."
Lin Feng smiled. He understood what Sima Xi meant.
For Liyan School, so what if they could get more from Yanling Prefecture?
Back then, even the powerful Yanling Clan was in tatters, with only a single branch remaining.
Even if the civil war did not break out, the existence of the Mansion was just a flash in the pan. Sooner or later, it would be destroyed by the Wizard Tribe.
Only the 'continent' was the true home of the human race!
Therefore, the Fierce Yan Sect encouraged their disciples to go to the Great Flame Continent; they even sent Star Lords to pick them up. The fee was just a small token of appreciation. More importantly, they had to be elite inner sect disciples to pick them up.
What was an elite Inner Sect disciple?
It meant that not only were they strong, but they were also truly loyal to the sect!
"Let's go. There should still be time to register." Sima Xi smiled.
"Alright." Lin Feng smiled calmly.
Since he was already here, he might as well make the best of it.
…
Following Sima Xian, Lin Feng soon arrived at a crowded place.
In fact, they didn't walk for long at all. It was as if they were walking along this road, and it was quite convenient.
"Senior is indeed a senior. You've already set a trap for me." Lin Feng smiled helplessly. Sima Xi was retreating in order to advance. He was very confident in persuading him to join the Fierce Yan Sect. Obviously, there were more than three ways to enter the Great Flame Continent. He must have specifically picked these three ways to 'tempt' him.
"That's not the case." Sima Xi put his hands behind his back and said casually, "It's just along the way. After all, I'm one of the protectors, and I'm also part of the genius selection."
"Is that so?" Lin Feng smiled calmly, but he didn't care about this small detail.
Whether it was intentional or not, to him, the process wasn't important.
It was that he had a reason to join the Fierce Yan Sect.
It wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
"There are so many people participating in the selection." Lin Feng's eyes sparkled.
Looking around, it was a sea of people. Other than people, he couldn't see anything else.
This scene was extremely shocking!
There were strong and weak auras. Here, Star River Levels were as common as commoners. Star Sea Levels could be sensed everywhere.
There were at least hundreds of thousands of them!
Crazy!
"As expected of the Fierce Yan Sect. Even a newcomer has such strength." Lin Feng sighed softly.
Compared to the real boss of the Yanling Prefecture, the Fierce Yan Sect, the Green Smoke City was on a completely different level.
Most importantly, the participants here were all young men and women. All of them were below the age of twenty!
They had unlimited potential!
"Come and register." Sima Xi waved his hand.
"Okay." Lin Feng smiled calmly.
…
"What did you say?" Sima Xi's eyes turned cold.
"This, this … Protector Sima, it's true that it's already past the registration time." A short man in the Fierce Yan Sect uniform said with fear in his eyes.
"Isn't there still half an hour before the selection starts?" Sima Xi's face darkened.
"Yes, yes." The Fierce Yan Sect disciple stammered and said with a trembling voice, "But the registration deadline is fifteen minutes before the selection starts …"
"Don't give me that!" Sima Xi's eyes instantly turned cold. He stared at the Fierce Yan Sect disciple and asked, "Who is in charge of this place?" His voice was firm. Sima Xi held a high position in the Fierce Yan Sect. His aura was indeed shocking. The short man was so frightened that he fell to the ground. His face was filled with fear.
Looking at the situation, Lin Feng sighed softly.
However, it was also destined. There was no need to force it. He was about to persuade Sima Xi.
Suddenly —
"Why are you making things difficult for me, Protector Sima?" The voice sounded desolate. An eagle-eyed man in a martial uniform strode over. He held three steel balls in his hand. There was a faint smile on his face. Lin Feng's eyes lit up. He felt the pressure of the eagle-eyed man's aura.
Seeing the eagle-eyed man arrive, the short man who was sitting on the ground looked as if he had seen his savior. He quickly got up and hid behind him.
"Protector Han, are you in charge of this place?" Sima Xi's eyes flashed.
"So what if I am? So what if I am not?" Han Lu smiled faintly. He spun the steel balls in his hand, making the sound of metal rubbing against each other. "You are bullying the weak. Protector Sima, if this were to spread, it would … damage your reputation, right?"
Sima Xi's eyes sparkled. "Protector Han, you seem to be prepared?"
Seeing the two of them confronting each other, Lin Feng was deep in thought.
This eagle-eyed man was obviously one of the protectors. Judging from his conversation with Senior Sima, the two of them did not seem to be on good terms.
The strangest thing was the timing of this eagle-eyed man's appearance.
It was too coincidental!
"Haha." Han Lu laughed. "Protector Sima, what are you talking about? I am in charge of the registration for the competition. Naturally, I will do my best. I dare not be careless." Han Lu clapped his hands and an innocent expression flashed across his face. "Rules are rules. Of course, you can't register after the time limit. Am I right, everyone?"
"Of course."
"Of course."
"If you don't follow the rules, what rules are there?"
…
Whispers could be heard. Although they were not loud, they could be heard clearly.
Sima Xi's expression changed slightly and his eyes turned cold.
He was not afraid of Han Lu. However, if he were to fight now, it would damage the reputation of the sect.
This was not what he wanted.
At this moment …
"Protector Han, you seem to be mistaken about something?" Lin Feng stepped forward calmly with a faint smile.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on him. Han Lu's eagle-eyed eyes were even sharper. He said coldly, "Who do you think you are? Protector Sima and I are talking. Who are you to interrupt?!" A wild aura was released. Han Lu's aura was extremely terrifying and suffocating.
However, Lin Feng's expression did not change at all. "What a foul mouth. So the protector of Fierce Yan Sect is of such quality?"
As soon as he said that, whispers could be heard from the surroundings.
"You!" Han Lu's face turned green. If anyone dared to speak to him like that, they would not know how they died.
However, in front of everyone, he could not say or do anything inappropriate.
Otherwise, it would affect the sect's reputation and the consequences would be severe.
"I have made it very clear just now. Rules are rules. The registration period is over. It's useless for anyone to intercede." Han Lu snorted and said disdainfully, "Don't think that you can get in through the back door just because you are friends with Protector Sima. Please leave!"
Lin Feng smiled. "Protector Han, don't you understand? Didn't I just say that you are mistaken about something? "
"What?" Han Lu frowned.
Lin Feng shrugged. "I am not here to participate in the Genius Selection."
As soon as he said that, everyone was stunned. Even Han Lu was puzzled. He asked, "Then why did you sign up?"
Lin Feng blinked and smiled. "To join the outer sect and become a candidate disciple."
As soon as he said that, everyone was stunned.
Joining the outer sect as a candidate disciple with the strength of Star Sea level?
Was this a joke?!
Even if one did not participate in the Genius Selection, Fierce Yan Sect had a special disciple recruitment event every year. With the strength of Star Sea level, one would at least be a beginner outer sect disciple. Joining as a candidate disciple was like letting an adult enter a school to study. It was too strange!
Han Lu's face turned green and white. He had embarrassed himself in front of everyone and felt that he had lost all face.
However, what Lin Feng said was reasonable. He could not refute it at all.
Gritting his teeth, Han Lu's eyes flashed with a cold light. "Good, good!"
He said 'good' three times in a row, revealing the suppressed anger in Han Lu's heart.
His hatred for Lin Feng deepened.
But …
Lin Feng did not care at all. He smiled and said, "Protector Han, may I ask if I can sign up now?"
Waves of satisfied laughter sounded around. When it fell into Han Lu's ears, it was like sharp needles piercing into his heart. He was so angry that his whole body trembled. He clenched his fists tightly. The three steel balls had already been crushed into powder. Han Lu shouted angrily, "Lu An!"
"Yes, yes!" The short man behind Han Lu answered in fear.
"Sign him up!" The words seemed to seep out from between his teeth. Han Lu gritted his teeth and snorted angrily.
He glared at Lin Feng furiously. Like a vicious wolf, Han Lu immediately flicked his sleeves and left.
