Light dragons shot into the sky, and for a moment, the area fell completely silent.
But this silence was extremely brief.
Before long, the crowd erupted.
Waves of exclamations and all manner of discussion rang out without end.
Even the densest among them could tell that this spectacle was far from ordinary.
Yet none of them had ever witnessed such a phenomenon before, and not a single person understood what was going on.
"So I won, right?"
Chu Feng stepped down from the stone platform and asked Bi Jingjing.
"You really are shameless, brat."
"To resort to such dirty tricks."
However, before Bi Jingjing could respond, Fang Yunshi spoke up with an angry expression.
"Dirty tricks?"
"Well, now that's rich."
"Sounds like you can't handle losing."
Chu Feng smiled contemptuously.
He had seen far too many people like this.
"This Talent Test Stone only displays white, gray, blue, purple, and radiance."
"They represent inferior, low, mid, high, and supreme talent, respectively."
"What was that just now? Were you putting on a magic show?"
"You really think dressing it up with flashy tricks would fool us?"
"Do you take us for fools?"
Fang Yunshi said.
No one found anything wrong with Fang Yunshi's words.
The radiance Chu Feng had unleashed was indeed extraordinary.
But it also genuinely exceeded the innate power of this Talent Test Stone.
So the matter was indeed suspicious.
"This round—we lost."
But just then, Bi Jingjing suddenly spoke.
"Junior Sister Bi, you..."
Hearing Bi Jingjing say this, Fang Yunshi looked at her with a confused expression.
"Supreme talent is not the limit of this Talent Test Stone."
"Divine talent is its true limit."
Bi Jingjing said.
"Divine talent? How come no one's ever heard of that?"
Many of the disciples present began buzzing with discussion once more.
"Junior Sister Bi, aren't you mistaken?"
"Even the ten Crouching Dragon disciples all had supreme talent."
"How could this person possibly have divine talent?"
Fang Yunshi said skeptically.
"This is indeed divine talent. I've heard my grandfather speak of it."
"My grandfather once witnessed someone make this Talent Test Stone release divine talent, and the sight was exactly the same as what just happened."
Bi Jingjing said.
"Someone else has truly triggered this phenomenon before?"
"How come I've never heard of it?"
Fang Yunshi asked.
Not only was he curious—other disciples, including Song Xi, were equally intrigued.
"You may not know about this, but that person—everyone here definitely knows of him."
Bi Jingjing said.
"Who is it?"
Everyone asked at once.
"Dugu Lingtian."
Bi Jingjing said.
"Wait—Lord Dugu Lingtian?"
Upon hearing the name Dugu Lingtian, the crowd's expressions grew complicated.
But when they looked at Chu Feng, they remained skeptical.
None of them doubted that Dugu Lingtian possessed what was called divine talent.
But regarding Chu Feng, they were still deeply doubtful.
"Junior Sister Bi, you must be mistaken, right?"
"This person is worthy of comparison with Lord Dugu Lingtian?"
Fang Yunshi pressed even more directly.
Even though Chu Feng had clearly just done it.
He still refused to believe that Chu Feng possessed that legendary divine talent.
But this time, Bi Jingjing completely ignored Fang Yunshi and turned directly to Chu Feng.
"In this first round—the talent contest—you won."
"Next will be the battle of barriers and martial force."
"If you can win one more round, this contest will be yours."
Bi Jingjing said to Chu Feng.
At this point, her tone was incomparably more courteous than before.
If before she had wished she could smack Chu Feng dead with one palm...
Then now, she harbored no more hostility toward him.
"The first round—you set the terms."
"So for the second round, it should be our turn, yes?"
Chu Feng asked.
"How do you want to set it?"
Bi Jingjing asked.
"The second round is about barrier techniques, right?"
"One-on-one is too boring and a waste of time."
"I alone will fight everyone from your Southern Phoenix Academy."
"Of course, we'll only compare barrier techniques."
Chu Feng said.
"I must be hearing things. You want to fight all of us by yourself?"
"Setting aside whether your talent is real or fake..."
