Chapter 559: Chapter 550: Dragon Tiger Sect’s Genius Young Lord — Wang Cong

Shi Feng’s physical body had reached the power of a Three-star Martial Ancestor. Following that, with a flip of his right hand, the three white jade bottles that he had just stored in his storage ring appeared once again in Shi Feng’s hands.

Having enhanced his physical body, Shi Feng prepared to consume the three Eighth-grade Saint Origin Pills to enhance his Martial Arts!

With a sudden squeeze of his right hand, there was a crisp "bang", and the three white jade bottles in his hand were instantly crushed by Shi Feng. Opening his palm, three round, golden pills—the Saint Origin Pills—lay in the center of his hand.

For an ordinary Seven-star Martial Venerable, a single Saint Origin Pill, which contained vast and pure primordial power, would be enough. At this moment, however, Shi Feng tossed all three Saint Origin Pills into his mouth.

Afterward, Shi Feng bent down and sat cross-legged on the ground. Indifferent to the puddle beneath him and the shattered pieces of white jade, he clasped his hands together in a sealing gesture and began to absorb the vast and pure primordial power of the three Saint Origin Pills!

...

Four days passed in a flash, and today was the last day before the martial arts competition for a royal engagement.

Tomorrow was the day of Princess Linglong’s martial arts competition for a royal engagement, the daughter of the Emperor of Tianlan Empire, rumored to be the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Domain!

At this moment, Tianlan Imperial City was already bustling and filled with noise.

Through the entire city, there were dense crowds of people. In the center of Tianlan Imperial City, the hundred martial arts platforms ordered by the Emperor of Tianlan Empire had also been completed.

"Brother Shi, look—these are the hundred martial arts platforms ordered by Lann Yuan. Each platform is equipped with powerful prohibitions, preventing any martial artist’s energy from spilling out of the platform during the competition and harming the nearby spectators," someone explained.

In the central area of Tianlan Imperial City, two figures moved through the crowd, one clad in a golden robe and holding a golden paper fan—the elegant gentleman Shi Jinsuai—and Shi Feng.

Following this, Shi Jinsuai said to Shi Feng, "I’ve heard that as of today, the number of martial artists who have registered has reached tens of thousands! It’s rumored that not only the Eastern Domain but also the Southern Territory, Western Region, North Domain, and Central State have brought quite a few martial artists. Princess Linglong’s appeal is indeed extraordinary!" At the end, Shi Jinsuai sighed genuinely from the bottom of his heart.

"Did you register to participate?" Shi Feng turned his head towards Shi Jinsuai and asked.

"Ha ha!" Hearing Shi Feng’s question, Shi Jinsuai laughed aloud, smiling, "Of course! Who wouldn’t want such a beauty! Perhaps if I’m lucky, I might dodge all the geniuses and avoid all the strong competitors. At the end, when they are all battered and exhausted from fighting each other, I might just luck out."

After hearing Shi Jinsuai’s words, Shi Feng gave a faint smile, shook his head, and said, "That chance is probably very slim! Pray for the god of luck to bless you."

"Brother Shi, look!" Just then, Shi Jinsuai pointed diagonally upwards towards a rooftop of an inn in Tianlan Imperial City, where a straight figure was standing.

The man, clad in an orange martial artist robe, had a head of short yellow hair and a strikingly handsome, commanding face. He looked down upon the flowing crowd below, especially with a gaze so sharp it felt piercing to anyone who observed him.

Shi Jinsuai then pointed at the man and introduced him to Shi Feng, "This person is Wang Cong, the Young Lord of the Dragon Tiger Sect. He is 28 years old and ranked above Marquis Zi Qing, Zi Xiao, in the Tianlan Empire’s power ranking - ninth place. He is absolutely a heaven-sent talent. Rumor has it that his martial arts realm, just a year ago, had already stepped into the One-star Martial Saint Realm!"

"Dragon Tiger Sect?" Shi Feng’s brows slightly furrowed upon hearing Shi Jinsuai’s words, sensing a vague familiarity with the term "Dragon Tiger Sect."

"That’s right!" Shi Feng recalled, outside the Death Forbidden Land, he had killed three young men, and he had heard people around mentioning that these three were from the Dragon Tiger Sect. Among them, one seemed to be some Young Lord of the sect too, also surnamed Wang, named Wang Liao.

"There must be some connection between them," Shi Feng murmured to himself quietly.

However, the Wang Liao he had killed that day was only in the Two-star Martial Venerate Realm, incomparable in talent to this man.

Seeing Shi Feng’s gaze still fixed on Wang Cong, Shi Jinsuai continued to explain, "There’s also a rumor that Wang Cong is the reincarnation of the Dragon Tiger Emperor. The day Wang Cong was born, an Azure Dragon Illusion and a White Tiger Illusion roamed the void. Only when Wang Cong descended to the world did they disappear from the void."

"Wang Cong’s presence here is presumably also for Princess Linglong. Brother Shi, it seems our competition has gained yet another unparalleled genius!"

Shi Feng ignored the latter part of Shi Jinsuai’s statement and turned his head to ask, "This Wang Cong, does he have a younger brother named Wang Liao?"

After hearing Shi Feng’s question, Shi Jinsuai nodded and said, "Yes, the second young lord of the Dragon Tiger Sect is indeed named Wang Liao. However, Wang Liao’s talent is incomparable to that of his elder brother, and it’s said that his character is not very admirable either. Moreover, there are rumors that a few months ago, his soul stone shattered."

"That explains it," replied Shi Feng, nodding and saying, "I once killed a waste who was also some young lord of the Dragon Tiger Sect, named Wang Liao."

"What!" Shi Jinsuai gasped in shock, his expression extremely alarmed as he looked at Shi Feng, "Wang Liao! You killed him? And there were others around who saw it?"

Then, realizing they were still among the crowd, Shi Jinsuai hurriedly lowered his voice to prevent others from overhearing and told Shi Feng, "Brother Shi, although Wang Liao was a waste, his elder brother Wang Cong and his father Wang Zhuo are not ordinary people! If they find out it was you who killed Wang Liao, you’re going to be in trouble!"

"No worries!" replied Shi Feng confidently, "If they come looking for this young lord, then I’ll just send all three of them to reunite as a family."

"This..." Shi Jinsuai looked at Shi Feng, realizing that the longer he spent with him, the more he felt that Shi Feng’s arrogance was growing. Though his talent was indeed remarkable, the other party was none other than Wang Cong of the Dragon Tiger Sect, and Wang Zhuo!

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Shi Jinsuai saw that Shi Feng’s gaze had shifted back to the front, and his usual calm expression suddenly turned cold, causing him to stop in his tracks.

Then, following Shi Feng’s gaze, Shi Jinsuai also looked forward, and upon recognizing the figure standing still amidst the crowd — Marquis Zi Qing, Zi Xiao!
