Peerless Martial God

Chapter 2161: Alliance

In Golden Mountain…

In the residential area for people who were from abroad, many people came to greet those who had the potential to be selected for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.

Many of those potential candidates didn’t understand and thought that it had something to do with the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. After all, they knew that Golden Mountain was one of the four influential groups since they were there, Golden Mountain had been chosen by the Shrine. Among the people who had the potential to become candidates of the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, many of them were already from Golden Mountain. The four influential groups had outstanding disciples.

Their people were also going to sit the exam like the foreigners. Of course, what the Shrine had done was advantageous for them. It was easier for them to be selected for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. The foreigners weren’t just pressured by the other foreigners, only but also by Golden Mountain’s disciples.

Prince Wu Qing and Jiu Ling Huang had the most magnificent palaces in Golden Mountain. Nobody had gone to see them, they had just heard that about the phenomenon.

—

A few people from Golden Mountain were standing in front of a palace. They glanced around, and one of the young men asked, “Who have we forgotten?”

An old man next to him replied, “One of them is Lin Feng. He’s not bad, and he’s also in Golden Mountain. You can go and see him. Make him join our group.”

“Is he in Golden Mountain now?” asked the young man.

“I’ve been watching him. Apparently, he’s back.” said the old man calmly. The young man’s eyes twinkled and he smiled, “Good, call Bing, we’ll go and invite him together.”

“Alright.” said the old man nodding. Then, his silhouette flickered. After a short time, a beautiful woman arrived.

“Brother Zhen.”

“Bing, let’s go invite someone.” said the young man nodding at the girl. The three people’s silhouettes flickered. The old man took them to Lin Feng’s palace.

—

When Lin Feng saw them arrive, he was surprised. These people were wearing different clothes, they were probably authentic members of Golden Mountain.

“Lin Feng, I’m Jin Zhen and this is my fellow disciple Bing,” said Jin Zhen, smiling at Lin Feng.

“What do you want?” replied Lin Feng, smiling affably back.

“In a few days, it will be the exam for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. Brother Lin Feng, we’re here to invite you to come join our group!” said Jin Zhen.

Lin Feng looked surprised and said, “I don’t understand.”

“Lin Feng, you don’t understand what the exam of Golden Mountain is like, so it’s normal that you don’t understand. The second round of the selections consists of group fights. We want to form alliances of ten people to eliminate the other alliances. That way, we can eliminate many people.”

“Ten people fight against other groups? Who’s considered a winner, then?” asked Lin Feng. He was curious now. Golden Mountain has different rules for the selection procedure.

“First, amongst the groups of ten people, five people are eliminated,” Bing told him.

“Half will be eliminated within a group?” Lin Feng was startled.

Jin Zhen nodded, “Indeed. But don’t worry, among the people I chose, you’re a hero. If you come to my palace, you’ll definitely move on to the next round. Then, we’ll eliminate people from other groups.”

“Groups of five will fight?”

“No, three people will be chosen to fight one-on-ones. If they win, then the five enemies will eliminated,” said Jin Zhen.

“The rules are cruel,” said Lin Feng, eying Jin Zhen. “If my partners aren’t strong enough, I’ll lose too.”

“Indeed. Therefore, I came to invite you! Besides you, among the people I invited, there’s also the First Master of Jade Clouds, Yu Qing, and a very strong cultivator who has a king-type body. Coupled with me, Bing and you, we are five,” Wang Zhen smiled, “Besides, Brother Lin Feng, Bing and I aren’t weak.”

“The First Master of Jade Clouds is also in Golden Mountain.” Lin Feng’s eyes twinkled. Golden Mountain was lucky. Three of the First Masters of the Continent of the Nine Clouds were here!

“Brother Lin Feng, don’t worry. Everybody knows you in town. We mean you no harm. If you doubt our honesty, we can give you some Great Imperial Weapons,” Bing spoke up, smiling and playing with her hair. She was definitely beautiful.

“Indeed. Brother Lin Feng, we believe in your strength; believe in our honesty,” said Jin Zhen gently.

“Lin Feng, Jin Zhen and Bing are outstanding young people in Golden Mountain. They are the descendants of Great Weapon Masters,” spoke up the old man proudly. These people really looked honest. There was no pressure or intimidation.

“I don’t need Great Imperial Weapons,” Lin Feng told them. “Since you seem honest, I won’t refuse.”

“Awesome, Brother Lin. Thank you very much!” said Jin Zhen, shaking hands with Lin Feng before smiling and taking a necklace out. “This is the necklace of our alliance. It means you can come to our deployment palace whenever you want. On the day of the exam, we’ll gather together. To avoid trouble, just put a thread of godly awareness inside.”

“Alright!” agreed Lin Feng. He understood. Since he had accepted an alliance with them, he had to do that, otherwise, if he went back on his word, it wouldn’t be fair. Many people knew that such a thing was possible, so they tried to protect themselves.

Lin Feng released a thread of godly awareness to swear he was going to respect the alliance. He didn’t mind. As long as he didn’t lose because of other people, everything was fine, especially since he was really strong and the exam would probably be easy for him.

“Awesome, Brother Lin, thank you, see you soon!” said Jin Zhen, shaking Lin Feng’s hand again. Bing smiled thinly and bowed before Lin Feng.

“Alright.” Lin Feng nodded at the three people who left. They still needed to invite some more people.

—

After they left Lin Feng’s palace, Jin Zhen and Bing smiled. Jin Zhen said, “Lin Feng is strong. With Yu Qing and the one who has a king-type body, we can be a terrifying group. The five others will just be cannon fodder.”

“I’ll be careful.” said the old man nodding. If the five other people knew they were cannon fodder, how would they feel? However, that was the sad truth. The group round was complex in comparison with the previous one. Five strong cultivators were going to be eliminated in each group!

“Bing, when the right time comes, it’ll be sad for you,” Zhen said to Bing.

“Alright, I don’t mind; the most important ones are you and Yu Qing,” Bing smiled. Jin Zhen nodded.

——

After that, Lin Feng calmly waited for the beginning of the exam. A few of his fellow disciples had already arrived in Godly Clouds City. Some people had been blocked at the entrance of the city, including Jing Xiao Yue. Mu Chen stayed with Jing Xiao Yue. The Saint was still with them.

Lin Feng hoped the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds would help him become stronger.

—

On the day of the exam, Lin Feng’s robe suddenly fluttered in the wind, and a sound resonated in his brain. The voice asked him to come to the meeting point at noon.

Lin Feng knew that the exam was going to start.

At noon, the crowd had gathered by the stage. The strong cultivators of Golden Mountain were waiting already. There were many people.

“Everybody gather with your groups!” said someone. Instantly, everybody gathered with their chosen teams. Lin Feng went over to Jin Zhen and Bing, and very quickly, they were nine people. Two of them looked extraordinary. One of them looked noble, strange, and indifferent. That was Yu Qing from Jade Clouds.

The second one was wearing a golden robe, but his Qi was abnormal. Some King intent filled the air around him. He was surprised to see Lin Feng. So much time had passed, and he had thought that people like them who had king-type bodies would progress faster.

The man was Dugu the Winner, who had a Godly Imprint King Body!

Dugu the Winner looked at Lin Feng calmly. In the Dark Night Region, Lin Feng and Dugu the Winner were of the same generation. But Lin Feng had become famous earlier than him. Before heading to Godly Clouds, Lin Feng was already famous in the Dark Night Region.

They said nothing to one another; they knew one another, that’s all, they weren’t friends.
