"Even if the Ancient Elves have always been strong, for a genius like that to appear is just too unbelievable. Are you sure about this? Is the information accurate?" Dantai Xue found it hard to believe.
"This information is absolutely true. My father personally witnessed the power of that princess from the Elf Kingdom. She must have been only ten years old at the time, yet she was already a first rank Half Emperor."
"Moreover, her combat strength was extraordinary — even a fifth rank Half Emperor was no match for her. My father personally saw that little princess defeat a fifth rank Half Emperor with ease, using only the cultivation of a first rank Half Emperor," Nangong Ya said.
"That's true. My father was there as well, so he saw it too," Nangong Baihe chimed in.
"A first rank Half Emperor defeating a fifth rank Half Emperor — doesn't that mean the little princess of the Elf Kingdom possesses combat strength capable of fighting four ranks above her own?" At that moment, even Chu Feng was shocked. Fighting four ranks above — that was absolutely stronger than his own combat strength.
"It is indeed four ranks above. And that was several years ago. Since then, no one has seen the Elf Kingdom's little princess, so no one knows what realm she has reached now. But what's certain is that she must be even stronger than before," Nangong Ya said.
"I never imagined the Sacred Land of Martialism had so many incredible geniuses. It truly deserves its reputation as the domain of Emperors — there really is some real pressure here."
"If I get the chance, I'd really like to see just how strong that little princess of the Elf Kingdom is." Suddenly, a smile tugged at the corner of Chu Feng's lips — a smile of excitement.
With bloodline inheritance as powerful as his, Chu Feng had believed that in a place like the Sacred Land of Martialism, virtually no one could stand against him.
Now it seemed he was wrong. At least for now, Nangong Ya, Beitang Zimo, and Dongfang Zexuan were all stronger than Chu Feng.
As for Baili Xinghe, the current Chu Feng couldn't even compare. And that little princess of the Elf Kingdom was clearly an even more remarkable existence — a true monster.
Chu Feng felt the pressure — pressure from his peers. But that pressure excited him, excited him to the point where his blood was boiling.
"So even you're getting excited," Chu Feng laughed to himself, because he could feel the Divine Thunder within his bloodline growing restless, as though, like him, his inherited bloodline was becoming thrilled.
"They say that when the Restrictive Barrier's energy disappears, a great era will dawn — an era where heroes converge and titans vie for supremacy, an era in which an Emperor will be born."
"Now the Restrictive Barrier's energy has vanished, and among our generation, there really have been numerous monster-level figures. It seems that prophecy is most likely true."
"Living in an era like this — who knows whether it's a blessing or a curse." Nangong Ya suddenly smiled, a complicated smile.
Though he was a genius of the highest caliber — the kind who stood unrivaled among the Nine Powers — in truth, his sense of superiority was not very strong.
He had grown up in the Nangong Imperial Clan, where geniuses were countless. Despite his extraordinary talent and tireless effort, he had never been the strongest genius of the Nangong Imperial Clan. He had never tasted the feeling of being invincible under heaven, let alone experienced what it was like to be revered as a god by all.
So while outsiders saw him as radiant, as the young master of the Nangong Imperial Clan, as one of the top geniuses of the Sacred Land of Martialism…
Deep down, Nangong Ya harbored feelings of inferiority. He felt that no matter how much of a genius he was, no matter how many people he surpassed, he would never become the greatest genius of all.
He hadn't been before, he wasn't now, and he never would be. He would eventually be forgotten by the world, because the world only remembers the strongest of any given era.
And the era he happened to be born into was the one with the most geniuses and monsters in ten thousand years. He felt a certain sadness about that.
In such an era, there was almost no stage for him to shine on.
Snap—
But just then, Chu Feng's hand suddenly landed on Nangong Ya's shoulder. Looking at him with a grin, Chu Feng said:
