Chapter 1062: Chapter 1036: The Trouble of Fame

Wu Fayi lost, and the Academy Elder was also looking at Tangyu with a face full of astonishment. He didn’t expect Wu Fayi to lose, and to lose so decisively and neatly, it could entirely be said to be an overwhelming advantage.

This young man, how did he become so powerful? At such a young age, he is unbelievably strong, indeed an extraordinary figure. With such heavenly talent, why would he need to join Shengfeng Academy? Logically, such a person should have an impressive background. So, this is something that made the Academy Elder very puzzled.

Wu Fayi lost, and the most difficult to accept were the onlookers at the scene, especially those disciples who regarded Wu Fayi as their leader.

They were all looking at everything with a face full of disbelief and confusion. Even though they saw it with their own eyes, they found it difficult to accept this fact at the moment.

Tangyu glanced at Wu Fayi, whose face was as ugly as it could be, and casually remarked, “Thank you for letting me win. Now we should be qualified to become disciples of Shengfeng Academy, right?”

Wu Fayi’s face turned as red as a pig’s liver, and his throat seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible giant hand.

He was now utterly disgraced, having hoisted his own petard. Though he was extremely resentful in his heart, there was nothing he could do, as Tangyu’s strength was indeed above his own. Despite his anger and unwillingness, he could only endure it. This time, it was like giving himself a slap in the face, so Wu Fayi directly turned and left. Wu Fayi’s followers hesitated slightly, then also followed behind him and left.

Only then did the Academy Elder snap back to reality, and the way he looked at Tangyu also changed a bit. If such a talented individual could sincerely join Shengfeng Academy, it would indeed be an enormous boon for Shengfeng Academy, undoubtedly a fortuitous event equivalent to a pie falling from the sky.

The Academy Elder also handed over the Identity Token to Tangyu and his companions, and then they bid farewell. After taking a tour of Shengfeng Academy with Shengyang, they returned to the City Lord’s Mansion.

The news of Tangyu’s victory over Wu Fayi naturally spread like a tidal wave throughout Shengfeng Academy, plunging the entire academy into a frenzy. Wu Fayi and Shengyang were considered the two absolute young sovereigns of Shengfeng Academy, with nobody able to challenge their status and strength, and nobody daring to offend their dignity. However, today, Wu Fayi was defeated by someone else.

This situation naturally left everyone perplexed, pondering who exactly this Tangyu was, leading to fervent discussions about Tangyu, filled with intense vigor.

“Haha, Brother Tangyu, you’re famous now! You’ve defeated Wu Fayi, and your name will undoubtedly spread throughout all of Shengfeng City in less than a day. But you were truly satisfying today.” Shengyang laughed cheerfully.

Tangyu pouted and shook his head, clearly not intending to bask in such fame.

He might have gained some attention, but it would soon bring a series of troubles.

Shengyang continued, “But Brother Tangyu, now that your reputation is out, I bet Liang Kingdom will soon have their eyes on you. As soon as Liang Kingdom investigates, they’ll likely suspect you. And with the way Liang Kingdom operates, preferring to mistakenly kill a thousand rather than let one slip through, they’ll certainly target you if there’s any suspicion. This issue is rather troubling. However, for now, you’re only in Shengfeng City, and the Liang Kingdom’s Imperial Guard wouldn’t dare act recklessly here. For the rest, we’ll handle it as it comes. If push comes to shove, I’ll have my father use the teleportation array to send you away, and then you can only wander the world.”

This issue was also what Tangyu was considering at the moment.

However, he had no choice. Wu Fayi had pushed things to such an extent, he couldn’t not act; it’s just not his style.

Besides, if Liang Kingdom truly wants to investigate, even without today’s events, they would still find their way here sooner or later. So, unless they continue to flee now.

This was something Tangyu was thinking about and hesitating over. Escaping wasn’t an issue, but the only concern was the fear of implicating the Yanshan Sect. His master had always treated Tangyu well, so such a decision was difficult for Tangyu to make. He felt that Liang Kingdom shouldn’t trouble the Yanshan Sect, but still, Tangyu couldn’t rest easy.

Additionally, he was also worried about his elder brother Zhuang Qian and the others.

Tangyu pouted, shook his head, and said, “Forget it, it has come to this point, there’s no use saying more. We’ll deal with whatever comes our way one step at a time. If worse comes to worst, we’ll make plans then.”

Shengyang nodded, “Yes, it’s fine. At least it’s very safe in my Shengfeng City. My father has already said that unless Liang Kingdom comes personally, nobody else can do anything here. With Liang King’s status, he definitely wouldn’t come to Shengfeng City for something like this. If Liang Kingdom really goes crazy, I’ll immediately arrange for my father to send you away, and with his abilities, Liang Kingdom won’t be able to find you again.”

“Hmm, thank you, Brother Shengyang.” Tangyu nodded solemnly, feeling deeply grateful.

Shengyang shook his head, “Brother Tangyu, there’s no need to be so polite.”

Tangyu smiled knowingly and said, “Right, Brother Shengyang, there’s one more thing I need your help with. Since we’re out now, on the run outside, I guess our sect must be quite worried. So, could you help us send a message back?”

Shengyang said, “That’s a small matter, but we must do it discreetly. I personally don’t recommend sending word now because you’re all from Liang Kingdom, and for people from Shengfeng City to go, they must pass through the Mystic Lan Realm, or they’ll have to take a long detour. I think it might be better to wait a bit. Liang Kingdom is now searching for you everywhere; sending a message now would not be safe.”

Tangyu nodded, “Alright, then let’s do it a bit later. There’s no rush for the moment. We’re still in Shengfeng City; once we leave Shengfeng City to go on the run, then we’ll need you, Holy Sun, to send a message.”

“Yes, I think the same.” Holy Sun nodded.

Everyone fell silent; such an event inevitably dampened their spirits.

A life of fleeing was something no one wanted to endure. However, there was no other choice now. The path had been set, and they had to walk it steadfastly.

Tangyu also quietly gritted his teeth, feeling fierce. Power, power, in the end, it was because he didn’t have enough power that he allowed others to bully him. The Liang Kingdom, at this moment, was undoubtedly a huge mountain for Tangyu. But Tangyu was confident that given time to grow, he could definitely destroy this mountain.

Therefore, he must work harder to avoid being crushed by the Liang Kingdom. The intense sense of crisis was also motivating Tangyu.

Suddenly, Holy Sun said, “By the way, Tangyu, you are now disciples of Saint Feng Academy, and you have the qualification to participate in the assessment to become the Saint Heir. Once you become a Saint Heir, you can cultivate many advanced spells of our Saint Feng Academy. Not to boast, when it comes to the depth of spells, our Saint Feng Academy should not be weaker than other sects. Some of the spells that our Saint Feng Academy uses to guard the academy are absolutely formidable. Even the Spiritual Arts, which are available to the Saint Heir for cultivation, can be practiced if you succeed in cultivating them.”

The classification of Cultivation Techniques and treasures is the same, divided into spells, Spiritual Arts, Daoist Arts, and Immortal Arts.

Each level is further divided into lower, middle, upper, and top grades.

Spells are suitable for cultivation in the Mystic Law Realm, while Spiritual Arts are generally only for cultivation in the Golden Core Realm. Daoist Arts are for the Zifu Great Power to cultivate. Immortal Arts, of course, are for Seeking Immortal Realm’s Demi Immortals to cultivate.

Of course, this is only applicable to most people; there will always be exceptions.

In the Mystic Law Realm, an evil genius can successfully cultivate Spiritual Arts in the Mystic Law Realm, greatly enhancing their power and becoming incredibly terrifying.

But such figures are as rare as phoenix feathers, not within the reach of ordinary people.

For Tangyu, he hasn’t had the chance to come into contact with Spiritual Arts yet. Generally, only when reaching the Eighth or Ninth Layer of the Mystic Law Realm does one start to dabble in Spiritual Arts, attempting to see if they can cultivate successfully, but it’s just an attempt.

Generally, a Spiritual Art is enough to become the treasured heritage of a sect, not something ordinary people can access.

For example, Tangyu is the direct disciple of the Yanshan Sect Master, but the Yanshan Sect Master didn’t let Tangyu come into contact with Spiritual Arts. Of course, the main reason is that at that time, Tangyu’s power was relatively weak.

Regarding the spells of Saint Feng Academy, Tangyu wasn’t very interested. Even cultivating a powerful top-grade spell wouldn’t greatly enhance his power. Mainly, Tangyu didn’t want to waste that effort on cultivation. Therefore, Tangyu didn’t plan to cultivate the spells of Saint Feng Academy.

Wang Qiutian and the others, however, became quite enthusiastic. They went with Holy Sun to the library of Saint Feng Academy, while Tangyu stayed at the City Lord’s Mansion to cultivate.

After seeing everyone off, Tangyu also went into seclusion in his room.

“Power, I must quickly enhance my power. Otherwise, there’s no way to contend with the Liang Kingdom. With my current power, I can at most be compared to a Golden Core Realm Third Layer cultivator. Such power is too weak in front of the Liang Kingdom, far from enough.” Tangyu once again steeled his resolve, motivating himself.

Now, for Tangyu, the quickest way to enhance his power might be the “Divine Demon Nine Heavens Chart.” Cultivating Divine Demon Body Refinement—Tangyu is currently only at the early stage of Divine Demon First Layer. Reaching the mid or late stage could greatly increase Tangyu’s power. However, cultivating Divine Demon Body Refinement is too difficult; improving in a short time is nearly impossible. The difficulty of cultivating Divine Demon Body Refinement is certainly greater than cultivating the Dao Foundation.

Speaking of the Dao Foundation, Tangyu is now at the Sixth Layer of the Mystic Law Realm, and it’s still quite realistic to increase to the Seventh Layer in the short term.

For the “Great Rift Vajra Technique,” it’s currently only at the Fourth Layer. With Tangyu’s current Realm, raising it by one or two layers in a short time should be a manageable task.

As for the “Undying Nine Transformations,” as long as there are enough materials, Tangyu is confident he can upgrade it to the Second Transformation in a short time.

As for the “Bright Moon Sword Art,” the Yin Yang Style has already been developed, so no further progress is possible in the short term.
