Chapter 365: Chapter 284: The Reaction of Former Classmates_1

Mountain Sea Academy.

On top of a sword peak, Yan Feng was sitting in front of a stone sword several meters high, putting down his cellphone with a thoughtful expression.

“Feng, during your entrance exam, did you really fight evenly with this Magic Duel Champion from the Dance Instrument Dao Academy?”

Next to Yan Feng sat a man and a woman, one of whom asked in disbelief.

Today it was their turn to come in front of the stone sword and cultivate their internal Sword Qi. After their cultivation was over, they were watching the Magic Duel live broadcast on Little Red Sky that was just pushed on their phones.

“Believe it or not, you can search online for the entrance exam video of Danxia City’s cohort, look for the semifinals, it’s my peak showdown with him.”

At first, Yan Feng was very unconvinced of his loss to Chen Mobai. With a strong determination, he came to the number one mountain-sea academy for sword cultivators, aiming to master earth-shattering swordsmanship and prove that he should have been the top of Danxia City’s cohort.

You should know, at that time, Yan Feng’s scores were enough to get into any of the Four Great Daoist Academies, as long as he could rank first in the Magic Duel during the entrance exam.

Not only him, but also Gong Xiangyu, even Kong Feichen, and Yang Jing.

Any of those four cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, could have replaced Chen Mobai and become the favored prodigy of the Four Great Daoist Academies, had they reached the end.

This is precisely why every genius who fell at the hands of Chen Mobai in that cohort was full of resentment, unwillingness, and refusal to concede defeat.

They all believed that they lost to Chen Mobai not because the opponent was too strong, but because they made serious mistakes during the Magic Duel, allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity and reverse the situation.

If they had the chance to do it again, both Yan Feng and Gong Xiangyu believed they could win one hundred percent.

Even Kong Feichen was thinking a few years ago that if Yang Jing hadn’t insisted on going to the finals and it had been him who faced Chen Mobai in the duel, he had several strategies that could have won him the match.

However, when the news of Chen Mobai’s Foundation Establishment was received, this idea made them all waver.

Although they were students of the top ten academies, they were all enrolled with Daoist Academy score lines and thus received core treatment upon admission. The edge method was also passed down to them. Before the Foundation Establishment, their resources and cultivation techniques were nearly the same as the students of the Daoist Academy.

That’s exactly why they knew how difficult it is to establish a foundation.

Kong Feichen, who had the greatest talent, had a heart demon which led to his initial failure in establishing a foundation.

As for Yan Feng and Gong Xiangyu, they only comprehended the edge method last year, and by now they have reached the Condensing Qi into Liquid stage. Even though it is as such, their progress is already very close to the average of the four Great Daoist Academies.

According to Yan Feng’s own estimation, he should be able to successfully establish his foundation by next year.

Knowing the difficulty of the Foundation Establishment, their inner assessment of Chen Mobai, who has successfully established a foundation, begins to change.

Perhaps, he is the real genius.

Yan Feng even wondered if during the entrance exam, because his talent was better and his resources were more abundant, he was able to just barely duel evenly with Chen Mobai due to him being at a higher realm.

At that time, he began to doubt himself.

Not long ago, when Little Red Sky started up, and Chen Mobai, as the chief of Dance Instrument Dao Academy, swept through the cultivators at the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment, Yan Feng confirmed his thoughts.

Yes, it’s exactly that!

Gong Xiangyu, who refused to accept defeat the most and thought that his love had been snatched away, lost all his arrogance after seeing the footage of Chen Mobai defeating Lu Qiulong.

As a student of the True Spiritual Academy, he knew very well what the name Lu Qiulong stood for.

That was their academy’s most promising genius to reach Core Formation stage in the past hundred years.

As for the others, they didn’t even need to be mentioned.

And after Yan Feng saw Chen Mobai officially break the winning streak record of Elder Yuan Yang, his inner thoughts changed again.

[I was actually able to force that Magic Duel Champion into a corner, making it so that he could only barely beat me by one move!]

If before Yan Feng felt humiliated because he lost to Chen Mobai and couldn’t go to any of the Four Great Daoist Academies, then now he only felt relieved.

“It’s really there.”

At this time, his female classmate had found the entrance exam video of Danxia City’s cohort, the peak showdown between Yan Feng and Chen Mobai during the semi-finals.

“You actually used a Heaven Heart Sword Talisman, you wastrel!”

The female classmate was Yan Feng’s girlfriend at Mountain Sea Academy. After watching the video, her eyes widened in disbelief. She was so hurt that she couldn’t catch her breath and almost fainted.

“What, you used a Heaven Heart Sword Talisman and still didn’t achieve invincibility under Qi Cultivation?!”

The other male classmate couldn’t help exclaiming when he heard this, looking at Yan Feng with disbelief.

“What do you know? That’s the Magic Duel Champion. His talent in combat is monstrous. Any small mistake will be seen through by his piercing eyes, leading to defeat,” Yan Feng retorted, starting to talk tough.

“It seems to be the case, after all, your opponent then was him.”

The male classmate’s gaze turned to the young man in a red and black robe, who was at the center of the Little Red Sky’s live broadcast screen on his phone. After seeing him, he couldn’t help but nod.

The title Magic Duel Champion was a nickname that Chen Mobai’s opponents during the entrance exam in Danxia City spread out.

They were distributed among the major academies of various sects, and now, when Little Red Sky was at its hottest, the news spread quickly and soon everyone knew.

The Crimson-robed True Person who was sitting in Danxia City could not have imagined that a nickname that he casually bragged about has now become Chen Mobai’s title.
