Zhang Yue had run away too quickly, and Ye Fei couldn't even open his mouth to explain. He could only gloomily return to his own residence with a large pile of books on Spiritual Enhancement. Then, he began to research on Spiritual Enhancement weapons with Xiao Cao.
Only now did Ye Fei know that Spiritual Enhancement weapons were fundamentally different from Spiritual Enhancement pills. This was because Spiritual Enhancement weapons were much more difficult, and the types of divine imprints required were much more complicated. However, this wasn't a problem for Xiao Cao. It seemed that Xiao Cao was born with knowledge of many divine imprints.
Now, what Ye Fei needed to do was to let Xiao Cao learn more about Spiritual Enhancement, and ensure that the Black Iron Heavy Sword would succeed in its first attempt!
"Xiao Cao, you must succeed this time! Otherwise, if the Spiritual Enhancement fails, not only will the Black Iron Heavy Sword be destroyed, our eight hundred thousand Black Stones will all be wasted. "Ye Fei's expression was very serious.
Hearing that the consequences of the Black Iron Heavy Sword being damaged were so serious, Xiao Cao's expression couldn't help but become even more serious. He hurriedly and earnestly studied the knowledge regarding Spiritual Enhancement weapons.
During this period of time, something happened that made the Divine Star Academy very suspicious. One of the students that Ye Fei had sent to deliver the elixirs to the Qi Zhen Pavilion had suddenly disappeared without a trace on the way back. This attracted the attention of the teachers of the academy.
However, considering that Ye Fei was currently in "seclusion" to prepare for the Imperial City Hunt in ten days, Jiang Zhen didn't inform Ye Fei. He only sent people to investigate in secret.
Just like that, another fifteen days passed. In a certain loft of the Lin Family, a strong Heavenly Venerate aura suddenly erupted. Following that, a powerful spear light pierced through the sky. Lin Chen was dressed in green, carrying a divine spear on his back. He stood proudly above the clouds, staring in the direction of the Divine Star Academy. His eyes flashed with a strong fighting spirit.
"Ye Fei, last time, I lost to you in martial arts. This time, I will definitely not lose again!"
"Chen 'er, could it be that you have already mastered the strongest divine ability of our Lin Family?" Below the loft, a group of Lin Family elders were very excited.
"Chen Ge!" The happiest person was still He Wushuang. A bright and beautiful smile flashed across her face, like flowers blooming in spring. Many Lin Family disciples couldn't help but reveal intoxicated expressions. Lin Chen was also fascinated by He Wushuang's beauty.
But ever since He Wushuang slandered Ye Fei in front of everyone, Lin Chen suddenly realized that this woman whom he was infatuated with did not seem suitable to be his partner.
Thus, Lin Chen hesitated. He didn't hug He Wushuang like before. Instead, he deliberately kept a distance from her. He nodded coldly and said, "The Imperial City Hunt is about to begin. Don't come looking for me during this period of time!"
With that, Lin Chen returned to the attic and began to conserve his energy, quietly waiting for the Imperial City Hunt to begin.
The elders of the Lin family were all shrewd people. When they felt Lin Chen's sudden cold attitude, they also became much colder towards He Wushuang.
After all, the Lin Family was a prestigious family. They also didn't want their future Young Madam to be a woman with a bad character.
He Wushuang also didn't expect that her cooperation with her father to frame Ye Fei would lead to such a disastrous outcome. Her face immediately paled, but when no one noticed, a deep resentment flashed across her delicate face.
"Ye Fei, Lin Chen, I, He Wushuang, will definitely make you regret this!" He Wushuang didn't say anything and just left the Lin Family alone.
But at this time, no one would pay attention to a small family's daughter who had lost their favor. The entire Imperial City became bustling and lively with the start of the Imperial City Hunt.
A large number of aristocratic family disciples gathered in the Imperial City from all over the Tianhe Kingdom. The scale was even larger than the Divine Star Academy's examination. After all, other than the Divine Star Academy, there were also some powerful families and schools established by some small sects in the Tianhe Kingdom.
According to the iron law set by the founding of the Tianhe Kingdom, every Imperial City Hunt, fifth-grade and above families and sects must send at least ten of their most outstanding Empyrean disciples to the Imperial City to participate in the hunt. The purpose of the founding emperor was to take advantage of the cruelty of the Imperial City Hunt to kill a large number of geniuses in the country's family forces and maintain the strong imperial power. In the first few Imperial City Hunt, the family forces of the Tianhe Kingdom had indeed suffered heavy losses. But under the imperial power, they had no choice.
Every time they sent their most outstanding disciples to the Imperial City to die. But this situation didn't last long. Later, following an accident, the three Lord Of Heaven of the Tianhe Kingdom's royal family, along with a large number of royal family experts, died one after another. The entire imperial power was greatly weakened. But the Imperial City Hunt was a tradition of the Tianhe Kingdom. It was forcibly protected by the major families.
They stayed.
Because every time the Imperial City Hunt was held, in order to let more family geniuses come to die, and to shut the mouths of the major families, the royal family would take out the most generous resources from the national treasury to reward the young warriors who passed the hunt.
The only difference was that when the royal family was strong, less than one in ten young Empyreans could pass the hunt. No matter how rich the resources the royal family took out, it was still a profit. But once the royal family began to decline, the hunt became a feast for the major families to carve up the royal family's resources. After all, every time a young man successfully passed the hunt, the royal family would be forced to take out a large number of cultivation resources from the national treasury as a reward for this person. If it was a few or dozens, the royal family could still afford it. But if the number of people who passed the hunt every year was in the hundreds or even thousands, the royal family would have to spend a lot of cultivation resources every year.
Refining resources, that was a very terrifying number.
"Ye Fei, now you know why Lin Chen must defeat you in the Royal Hunt. The current Imperial City Hunt has long been a stage for the large and small forces of the Tianhe Kingdom to compete with each other. Whoever can win this hunt will be able to establish their position as the overlord of the Tianhe Kingdom!"
Jiang Zhen's expression was a little worried. After all, the most powerful people in the Divine Star Academy were in the Sovereign Realm. But in the Empyrean Realm, the Divine Star Academy was at a disadvantage compared to the Lin Family.
Therefore, in the past years of the Imperial City Hunt, the final winner was always the Lin Family! The reason why the Lin Family was able to grow so powerful and make the entire Imperial City only know about the Lin Family and not the royal family was because the Lin Family had obtained the most victories in the past Imperial City Hunt, and the number of people who passed the hunt was also the highest.
Every time the Imperial City Hunt, at least 50% of the resources in the royal treasury would be divided by the Lin Family. The remaining 50% would be divided by the other forces of the Tianhe Kingdom.
This also caused many families, including the Divine Star Academy, to have a huge hidden worry. That was, if the Lin Family continued to develop like this, the sky of the Tianhe Kingdom might change.
However, at such a critical moment, Ye Fei actually did not invite the high level Spirit Augmentation Master friend behind him. Spirit Augmentation divine materials.
