The Yanling Royal Residence was bustling with noise and excitement.
Countless geniuses from the Yanling Residence had gathered here. Almost all the large and medium-sized forces were gathered here.
Whispering to each other, everyone was filled with anticipation.
This was the sacred place that opened once a year.
"Wow, my idol, Lin Feng, is far ahead in the hundred-year and ten-thousand-year rankings."
"He is indeed the strongest in the Yanling Residence. His points are over 20 million. Look, the second place is only 4.75 million."
"Don't make a fuss. You don't know that when the Fierce Yan School and the Yanling Residence went to war last year, Lin Feng alone slaughtered five hundred experts from the Yanling Residence and dominated the sacred place!"
"Really? Are you kidding me?"
…
In front of the rankings, everyone was discussing animatedly.
The topic of discussion was inseparable from the two words' Lin Feng '. After Zhu Ling had spread the video of the battle, Ji Jin had also greatly promoted it. Now, Lin Feng was not only the living signboard of the Fierce Yan School, but also the idol of all the young martial artists in the Yanling Prefecture.
The new generation surpassed the old. The era of Wan Mochou was over, and so was the era of the Yanling Residence.
The Yanling Residence would welcome the era of Lin Feng and the Fierce Yan School!
In an instant …
"Boom!" The entire Yanling Residence was in a hubbub.
Qi Liang's cheers, mixed with excited screams, rose and fell one after another.
Everyone's eyes were shining. They were overjoyed as they looked into the distance and saw their idol with their own eyes.
Lin Feng was here.
It caused a huge commotion.
"Ugh." Lin Feng was shocked by his own reaction.
Feeling everyone's passionate and fiery gazes, he was a little uncomfortable.
How did he become so famous?
Feeling helpless, Lin Feng smiled bitterly. Hearing familiar shouts, he looked over and saw Second Senior Brother, Ji Xiu, and the others. Lin Feng smiled faintly and strode away. Familiar faces appeared in front of him. Ji Qing, Ji Jing, Ji Xiu, Lei Ba, Jin Niu Jiao, Qian Xin … They were all companions who went through life and death with him last year.
"Hello everyone, I'm late." Lin Feng smiled.
Looking at these fellow disciples who were like brothers, he felt a sense of warmth.
"Ha ha, our boss is here." Lei Ba laughed.
"You should call him Captain. How rude," Ji Qing reprimanded.
"Damn it, I also want to join the first team!" Yellow Gall curled his lips and said gloomily.
"Tsk, only 19 spots. Do you think it's that easy?" Qin Huaihui pouted.
However, this caused Lin Feng to be stunned and slightly puzzled.
Was the First Squad related to him?
"It's like this, Lin Feng." The Third Elder walked over with a smile and patted Lin Feng's shoulder. "I heard that this is your last time entering the Yanling Royal Residence. Your master asked you to help lead a team. Do you mind?" Then, Third Elder handed over an exclusive locator. The number '1' was clearly written on it, representing Team One.
So that was the case.
Lin Feng suddenly understood.
"To be able to enter the first team, he must be the future pillar of Yanling Prefecture."
"Master has indeed given a lot of thought."
Lin Feng smiled. He understood his master's intention.
Anyway, to him, it was just a piece of cake.
A team of 20 people and he would encounter three Stairway Guardians in the Stairway Battle. It seemed much more difficult, but …
His master still underestimated him.
Looking at the people around him, looking at their happy and excited eyes, then looking at their disappointed and gloomy expressions, Lin Feng took the locator and looked at Third Elder. He smiled and said, "How about this, Third Elder. Since I have to lead the team, it doesn't matter if there are more people. Please help me expand Team One."
"Really?" Third Elder's eyes lit up and he said happily.
He and Ji Jin were afraid that Lin Feng would be too tired, so they kept the number of people at 20 after much consideration.
However, the selection process was extremely tiring. Many elite warriors could not enter.
"Don't worry, Third Elder. Since Junior Brother has asked, there will naturally be no problem." Zhu Ling smiled and said.
"Then I'll pick. How many people?" Third Elder raised his eyebrows and probed. "20 more? No, how about 10? "
"You're joking, Third Elder." Zhu Ling smiled and said, "Let's add 30 more to make a team of 50 people." Then, he looked back at Lin Feng. "Is that okay, Junior Brother?"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Let's make it 100 people."
What?!
This time, however, everyone was stunned.
Zhu Ling's eyes widened. "100 people, Junior Brother, can you handle it?"
Third Elder swallowed his saliva and said, "Lin Feng, your master wants you to lead Team One to the Fifth Layer of Heaven …"
"I know." Lin Feng nodded.
How could he not understand his master's meaning?
"100 people, hiss …" Third Elder took a deep breath and counted with his fingers. "If you challenge the Stairway Battle, Lin Feng, you will have to face 11 peak Star Sea State Guardians. That's 11 existences equivalent to Wan Chou!"
"Mm." Lin Feng smiled and said, "Hurry up and pick, Third Elder. There's not much time left."
"Oh, okay, okay." Seeing Lin Feng's confident expression, Third Elder did not dare to delay and quickly went to pick the people.
At this moment, the people of Fierce Yan Sect heard this big news and instantly became excited.
The originally disappointed and depressed expression instantly turned into a strong sense of hope!
100 people!
Compared to the original 20 people, the hope had increased by more than a few times!
In an instant, there was joy and happiness.
Looking at the excited faces of the people, Lin Feng smiled.
Since he was going to lead a team, there was no harm in bringing more people. It would be his last contribution to the sect.
In any case, there wasn't much of a difference between bringing 20 people and bringing 100 people. If he was willing, even if he brought all 450 people of Fierce Yan Sect, it would not matter. With his current strength, it was too easy to deal with peak Star Sea State Guardians!
However, the Fifth Layer of Heaven was different from the Fourth Layer of Heaven. It was much more dangerous.
Moreover, he was only responsible for leading them. He could not always look after them like a nanny.
Therefore, it was enough to choose 100 elites.
It might not be a good thing to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm.
…
Soon —
Under Third Elder's careful selection, a team of 100 warriors was formed.
Such a huge team was not only unprecedented in Fierce Yan Sect, but also in the entire Yanling Mansion. The surrounding people pointed at them and whispered among themselves. Although they were puzzled and surprised, the leader was Lin Feng, so no one dared to question him.
Lin Feng's strength was unfathomable!
It was evident that he could defeat a Star Lord Sorcerer Race alone.
No matter how strong a peak Star Sea State Guardian was, could he be stronger than a Star Lord Sorcerer Race?
Just as the crowd was discussing — —
"Whoosh!" Light shone.
Boom!
Rumble!
A low sound was heard, shaking people's hearts.
Everyone stopped talking and looked at the majestic door with bright eyes. At this moment, it was slowly opening.
A bright white light appeared from the gap of the door, shining brighter and brighter.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Yanling Mansion, open!
"Let's go." Lin Feng smiled faintly.
He stepped forward with steady steps, revealing a faint sense of confidence.
This time was completely different from the previous time.
…
…
In the Stairway to Heaven battle, a team of 1 to 3 people would encounter a Stairway Guardian.
A team of 4 to 10 people would encounter two Stairway Guardians.
A team of 11 to 20 people would encounter three Stairway Guardians.
After 20 people, every additional 10 people would increase the number of Stairway Guardians by one.
Now, the first team had a total of 100 people. In other words, the number of Stairway Guardians encountered in each Heaven was —
Eleven!
It was a shocking number.
If it was a group battle, it would make sense for 100 people to deal with 11 Stairway Guardians.
However, Lin Feng was alone.
In the First Heaven and Second Heaven, Lin Feng did not make a move.
The Stairway Guardians with such strength were beaten to death by the people from Fierce Yan Sect. They could not fight back at all.
In the Third Heaven, Lin Feng still did not make a move.
With Zhu Ling and Ji Xiu, these two martial artists who were close to the peak of the Star Sea level, leading the elites to battle, although they encountered some small obstacles, they still passed the trial without much fuss. They defeated the eleven Heaven Stairway Guardians and entered the fourth layer of heaven.
And this time —
Lin Feng was finally going to make a move.
The Stairway Guardians of the Fourth Heaven were 11 peak Star Sea States.
Defeating them would allow them to enter the Fifth Heaven!
"What a terrifying aura."
"Is this the power of a peak Star Sea State?"
"We will be killed …"
Behind the Stairway Line, a faint layer of light separated the 'battlefield'.
As long as one did not cross the Lightning Pool, there would be no danger. The Stairway Guardians would not attack the warriors behind the Stairway Line.
However, the aura of the 11 Stairway Guardians, 11 peak Star Sea States, was overwhelming. It was intimidating and threatening! Among the crowd, even Zhu Ling and Ji Xiu, who were close to the peak Star Sea State, felt suffocated and pressured.
Their bodies trembled, and their breathing quickened.
But …
There was one person who did not seem to care.
Slowly stepping into the pool of thunder, Lin Feng's expression was calm. It was as if he was doing something insignificant.
Pa! He crossed the Stairway Line.
Peng! Lin Feng's eyes were burning with astral power.
A faint battle intent was emitted, flashing with a touch of purple light.
The Purple Crystal Spear appeared in Lin Feng's hand. It was like a flood dragon coming out of the sea. A roar broke the silence. It was Lin Feng.
Clank! The Spear Intent swept across.
The tenth layer of Emperor Shun's astral power and flames drove the Spear Intent to burst forth.
Lin Feng charged into the encirclement of the 11 Stairway Guardians alone like a shooting star. His expression did not change. The shocking aura completely covered the aura of the 11 peak Star Sea States. It was a domineering aura that looked down on everyone.
The pressure of the Li Yan Sect was completely released.
It was as if all the calamity had fallen on the black figure in front of them. They did not have to bear it anymore.
The man and the spear had become one.
Lin Feng's strength was fully displayed!
"What a powerful spear technique realm." Ji Xiu felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He had always been proud of his sword technique realm.
But now, after witnessing Lin Feng's spear skills with his own eyes, he realized that Lin Feng's spear skills had already surpassed his swordsmanship.
"Junior Brother's strength is unfathomable." Zhu Ling nodded, his eyes shining.
Although he was usually jovial and frivolous, his obsession with strength was very deep in his heart.
Now that he was up close and personally witnessing Lin Feng's prowess, his heart trembled.
At this moment, all the disciples of the Li Yan Sect widened their eyes and held their breaths. They did not even dare to blink, fearing that they would miss this unforgettable battle. What they saw now was a legendary battle. Lin Feng fought against 11 peak Star Sea States Stairway Guardians alone!
Almost in the blink of an eye, the Stairway Guardians disappeared one after another, turning into nothingness.
Lin Feng, one man and one spear, seemed to have pierced through the sky. He was invincible.
This was the strongest person in the Yan Ling Sect!
He was truly invincible!
