CHAPTER 1709: CHAPTER 1707: TREATING SOMEONE TO A DRINK

"However, compared to those array geniuses cultivated from a young age in the East Province, he still has a certain gap. At that age, the presence of those who have entered the realm of third-level Formation Masters is not rare. To enter the top ten, he must have the level of a Fourth-level Formation Master!"

Liu Sanming said in a deep voice, with a glint in his eyes.

"A Fourth-level Formation Master, that’s not something one can achieve just because they want to!"

The third-level Formation Master sighed.

Leaving the Formation Master Branch, Xiao Yifeng walked down the street. As he passed by a restaurant, a ragged, disheveled old man was suddenly swept out, collapsing onto the ground. Several restaurant waiters glared angrily at the old man.

"Old guy, coming here every day with no money to mooch wine, what do you take this place for? Hurry up and scram. If you come again next time, don’t blame us for being rude!"

The restaurant waiter shouted at the old man.

"Please give me a little wine to drink, I’m begging you!"

The old man climbed up, looking at the waiter with a pleading expression.

"Get lost, or we’ll beat you to death!"

The several waiters shouted fiercely.

"Here, bring out all the good wine you have!"

At this moment, Xiao Yifeng walked over, threw out a Superior Grade Spirit Stone to the waiter, speaking coolly.

The waiters were stunned by the Superior Grade Spirit Stone in front of them.

"Hurry up and get the wine!"

Xiao Yifeng coldly ordered.

"Oh, right away!"

The waiters snapped back to reality and quickly replied.

"Are you alright?"

Xiao Yifeng helped the old man up and asked.

"I’m fine, what could happen to an old man like me!"

The old man chuckled indifferently, looking foolishly simple-minded.

"Sir, here’s your wine!"

At that moment, the waiter brought out a few jars of wine to Xiao Yifeng.

"Wine!!!"

Seeing the wine, the old man’s eyes immediately lit up, his face full of excitement as he stretched out his hands, grabbed a jar of wine, and started drinking.

"Alright, you guys can leave now!"

Xiao Yifeng took the remaining two jars of wine and declared, prompting the waiters to depart.

"Old man, drink slowly, there’s more here!"

Xiao Yifeng advised the old man.

"Wow, this is great! It’s been so long since I’ve drunk so heartily!"

The old man said excitedly, looking at Xiao Yifeng, "Come, drink with me."

Then, the old man dragged Xiao Yifeng away from there. The two found a place to sit down, and Xiao Yifeng, having nothing better to do, accompanied the old man for a drink.

"Strange, why can’t I see through this guy!"

Long Qian murmured in Xiao Yifeng’s mind.

"Old man, where are you from?"

Xiao Yifeng asked while drinking.

"Me? I don’t know!"

The old man pondered for a few seconds before shaking his head.

In the blink of an eye, the wine in their hands was all gone. Xiao Yifeng took out a pile of Superior Grade Spirit Stones and gave them to the old man.

"Old man, take these Spirit Stones to buy some wine. I have to leave now."

Xiao Yifeng said and was about to depart when the old man’s rough hand grabbed him.

"Is there something else?"

Xiao Yifeng asked the old man.

"You are a good person. Take this Jade Pendant!"

The old man searched himself for a long time before pulling out a somewhat dirty stone to give to Xiao Yifeng.

"This..."

Xiao Yifeng wanted to refuse initially, but seeing the old man, he couldn’t bear to say no, so he accepted it.

"Thanks!"

Xiao Yifeng said and left.

Watching Xiao Yifeng’s departing figure, the old man’s cloudy eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Kid, I feel like I can’t see through this old man!"

At this moment, Long Qian spoke.

"What’s so inscrutable about him? Isn’t he just a beggar old man, quite ordinary!"

Xiao Yifeng said, having used his penetrating vision on the old man already. He was just a common old man, nothing special.

"I don’t know, it just gives me an inscrutable feeling!"

Long Qian said indifferently.

"Senior, you might be overthinking!"

Xiao Yifeng said with a smile.

"Did you check the stone he gave you?"

Long Qian asked.

"I did, it’s just a regular stone, nothing special, probably something the old man picked up randomly."

Xiao Yifeng replied.

"Maybe I’m just overthinking it!"

Long Qian said lightly.

Earth, China!

Tianhai, Xiao Family Villa—

"Sister, do you feel like the Spiritual Energy in the air has been gradually increasing recently?"

In the villa, Bai Yulian asked Bai Yulan.

"Yes, I indeed feel that way, the Spiritual Energy in the air is indeed increasing!"

Bai Yulan nodded.

"Have you all noticed it? I feel it too!"

Yan Ruyu and Ji Sanniang also spoke up.

"I don’t know what’s going on, is it that the Spiritual Energy on Earth is about to increase again?"

Ji Sanniang said.

The women were all puzzled and confused.

Meanwhile, they didn’t notice that the precious child in Lu Xueqing’s belly was absorbing an invisible power coming from a mysterious place on Earth.

In that mysterious place, a cluster of purple light shimmered, emanating a unique aura.

In Japan, deep within Mount Fuji in Kyoto, a person in a black robe stood before a coffin, eyes gleaming. The coffin was filled with a special energy radiance.

"Soon, soon, in at most ten years, you can be completely revived. By then, this primordial world will be dominated by us, and we will finally take that step to enter that realm, becoming the sole existence transcending this world!"

The person in the black robe spoke with extreme excitement, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

Time flew by, and a new day began.

At Fengyun Academy’s Fengyun Arena, a large crowd had gathered once again since Xiao Yifeng’s last duel with Fang Qing, and this time, the entire academy was mobilized.

Excluding those not in the academy and those in secluded cultivation, almost everyone else had come to gather here, all to await today’s competition between Xiao Yifeng and Qin Cheng.

As one of Fengyun Academy’s top five strongest genius students, Qin Cheng not only possessed formidable talent in arrays but was the strongest in array talent before Xiao Yifeng’s appearance. Moreover, his Martial Arts Strength belonged to the top tier among the young generation of Fengyun Academy.

Now, Xiao Yifeng had become a sensational figure at Fengyun Academy, having defeated Fang Qing and set up a third-level array, making him a super genius of the academy.

The battle between these two today was even more anticipated than his previous fight with Fang Qing, especially since they would be competing not only in martial arts but also in formations, promising even greater excitement.
