Chapter 807: Chapter 808: The Quiet Rise of a Colossus
Lan Yunfeng naturally didnât know what Zhuge Ming was thinking.
But Zhuge Ming knew that Lan Yunfeng had completely trusted Lin Qian, and in some sense, he had already become a member of the Huaxia Empire, just like him.
Because Lan Yunfeng called Lin Qian âYour Majesty,â not âYoung Masterâ!
Clearly, he had been subtly and completely influenced by Lin Qian.
A few days later, after a sparring session, Kuang Zhan looked proudly at the panting Lan Yunfeng before him: âHahaha, you didnât expect it, did you? I won.â
Despite the pride on his face, Kuang Zhan looked at Lan Yunfengâs eyes, filled with amazement.
He had cultivated the cultivation technique given by Lin Qian, and his combat power had rapidly advanced. By rights, Lan Yunfeng, who originally wasnât his opponent, should have been defeated by him.
Yet in their exchange just now, the strength Lan Yunfeng showed was nearly on par with his own, just slightly less.
Even though he ended up winning, it was a close call, making Kuang Zhan deeply aware of his shortcomings.
He had just started cultivating the cultivation technique given by Lin Qian, and it hadnât been long; he hadnât mastered it thoroughly, and his combat power hadnât shown significant progress.
Realizing this, Kuang Zhan felt relieved he hadnât rushed to spar with Sheng Da. If he faced him in his current state, heâd probably lose.
But Kuang Zhan didnât know Lan Yunfengâs rapid increase in strength was due to Zhuge Mingâs guidance.
If he sought out the creator of this cultivation technique for guidance as well, his progress would be exceptionally swift.
âHmph, Your Majesty favors you far more than me; whatâs there to be proud of?â At this, Lan Yunfeng struggled to stand, his eyes filled with defiance, âIf Your Majesty hadnât completed your bloodline for you, you would have fallen long ago.â
Lan Yunfengâs words made Kuang Zhan even prouder: âHahaha, Your Majesty completed my bloodline. Are you jealous? Let Your Majesty complete your bloodline too, make your bloodline concentration and purity reach perfectionâŠâ
Hearing this, Lan Yunfengâs eyes brightened, and a light flickered in his gaze at Kuang Zhanâs words, giving him a sense of awakening.
But at that moment, Kuang Zhan regained his senses, looked at Lan Yunfeng suspiciously, âThatâs strange. You used to call His Majesty âYoung Master,â so why did you change like me? Did you also swear a heart demon oath and join the Huaxia Empire?â
Kuang Zhanâs words brought out a reflexive response from Lan Yunfeng: âFollowing His Majesty promises limitless prospects, and Iâve received great kindness myself. Joining the Huaxia Empire is no big deal; weâre all family anyway.â
However, after Lan Yunfeng said this, he was stunned himself.
He felt something was off but couldnât explain why; he just felt it was the right thing to do.
Then, Lan Yunfeng shook his head, heading to his residence in the city, preparing to continue cultivation, pondering when to ask Lin Qian about the possibility of enhancing his bloodline concentration to perfection.
Meanwhile, Kuang Zhan watched Lan Yunfeng perplexed, mumbling to himself: âThatâs good, at least thereâs another companion.â
Soon after, Kuang Zhan headed towards his dwelling, ready to enter a state of intense cultivation, seeking to thoroughly master the cultivation technique given by His Majesty. Then, to spar with Sheng Da, proving himself.
In the month when Lin Qian and others were cultivating on the Trial Star, the thousands of students originally residing there not only didnât cause them trouble but left the Trial Star.
According to news from some trialists in the Huaxia Alliance, these students would head to Lower Water Star, residing in places originally prepared for them.
Regarding this, everyone had no objections. The rich spiritual energy in the Trial Land now was far superior to Upper Water Star and Lower Water Star, making it a good thing they left, eliminating potential disputes and saving them time for cultivation.
They also realized this mass student relocation was handled by the Sea Spiral Holy Institute, yet the Saint Institute had never blamed them for altering the spiritual energy circumstances in the Trial Land.
âI have someone on the inside!â
At this, they couldnât help but recall Lin Qianâs words.
This matter made them all the more loyal to Lin Qian.
They didnât realize it was their loyalty that activated Lin Qianâs emperor talent, gradually impacting everyone.
Fewer and fewer people called Lin Qian âAlliance Hierarch,â starting to call him âYour Majesty.â
Yet they couldnât explain why; to them, it simply felt easier to call him as everyone else did.
Lin Qian was aware, and when someone inadvertently called him âYour Majesty,â he would secretly help them advance their realm, gifting potions to enhance their strength.
After all, these people were deeply influenced by his emperor talent, becoming his followers, and heâd naturally favor them, making them stronger.
The stronger they became, the stronger he would too.
Gradually, even Dao Sui and others began to feel the influence, then Liu Shiming, then Sheng Da.
At this, Lin Qian increasingly felt his emperor talent was terrifyingly potent.
Even a person like Sheng Da could be subtly influenced, showcasing how strong his talent truly was.
As two years gradually passed, none of the old students at the Sea Spiral Holy Institute knew a new formidable force had arisen within their ranks.
The true events of the entrance trial had been completely sealed by the Sea Spiral Holy Institute; hence, the old students there were unaware of what transpired during the entrance trial.
Once they fully realized, theyâd understand a terrifying, immense entity had quietly emerged among them.
In the hall of the Sea Spiral Holy Instituteâs dean, the female dean looked at the report in her hand, smiling: âI never imagined it, the strength would rise so swiftly. The chaos within the institute seems to be coming sooner than I anticipated. Lin Qian, donât let me down!â
