Mu Chen sounded calm and serene. If they wanted to fight, Tiantai wouldn't back down.
Even though he had just said a few sentences, he had exposed Tian Long's people's behavior. So many Zun cultivators had come to fight, and if they did, the Huang Sea underground wouldn't hold up. That place was artificial, if it broke, all the energies of the Huang Sea would flow in.
They threatened to kill Emperor Yu and Emperor Shi's disciples, but they weren't the only ones who had disciples. Mu Chen and Hou Qing Lin could also slaughter Tian Long's disciples. That would end in a great war.
"You killed our protector and came into our territory. How can you explain that?" Everybody remained silent until someone asked that. Everybody knew that Emperor Tian Long and the two emperors didn't like each other.
"Do you understand anything I just said? Your protector violated the rules and attacked one of our disciples, he had to die. What else do I have to explain?" said Mu Chen coldly. He sounded firm.
Tian Long's people looked annoyed as the leader said, "Alright, we'll remember that."
After that, he looked at the altar and grinded his teeth. Without the altar, how could they go back?
Tian Long's people moved towards Mu Chen and said coldly, "Move away!"
Mu Chen smiled in a resplendent way. Hou Qing Lin and Lin Feng moved aside too. Tian Long had to repair the altar. They didn't need long though.
At that moment, Tiantai's people approached Mu Chen and said, "Beware of Tian Long's people in the future. They won't easily forget today."
"Understood." everyone nodded.
"Let's go." said Mu Chen indifferently. Then, they left again.
The crowd was shivering, Mu Chen was incredible.
Mu Chen and the others made their way back to Tiantai.
"We'll meet again for the graduation ceremony. You can do whatever you want in the meantime." said Mu Chen.
"I'm going too." said the Sadhu with an indifferent smile too.
"Brother, stay here, I'm going to the other side." said Mu Chen to Hou Qing Lin. On one side, there were cultivators of the Tian Qi layer. On the other side were cultivators of the Zun Qi layer.
"Alright." said Hou Qing Lin nodding. Then, Mu Chen left. Only Hou Qing Lin and Lin Feng were left there. Qiu Yue Xin had joined them too.
At that moment, Hou Qing Lin smiled at them. "Congratulations brother and sister. You ranked first and second."
"Eh?" Lin Feng and Qiu Yue Xin glanced at each other, they were surprised, but smiled.
First and second. What a pleasant surprise.
"Brother, was the ranking made solely on the last exam?" asked Lin Feng.
Hou Qing Lin smiled and said, "We decided it that way and you guys came out first, so you ranked first and second. That's our final decision."
Lin Feng and Qiu Yue Xin smiled wryly.
"He likes us." thought Qiu Yue Xin looking at Lin Feng. Nobody could refute their decision anyway.
"Brother, don't you think other people will get angry because the ranking isn't based on strength?" asked Lin Feng.
"Tian level cultivators are still growing, no matter your level or power at this time, that's not important for Tian level cultivators. When you become Zun cultivators, strength becomes more important." Hou Qing Lin said smiling. "Besides, there are no fair rules in our world. In any case, you finished first at the first exam and now you came out first in this exam, you're good."
Lin Feng smiled. Indeed, Tian level were still growing up. In the eyes of emperors, no Tian level cultivator was strong anyways.
"You're second, you don't mind, right?" said Hou Qing Lin smiling at Qiu Yue Xin.
"I don't, of course." said Qiu Yue Xin with a resplendent smile. She admired Hou Qing Lin. He was only 50 years old according to rumors yet he was stronger than most of the cultivators of the Qiu Clan. Hou Qing Lin was famous.
"You're a couple, so if you want to be first and second, you can argue that amongst yourselves anyways." said Hou Qing Lin laughing. Qiu Yue Xin and Lin Feng were surprised. Hou Qing Lin also liked to joke!
"By the way, I wanted to ask something." said Lin Feng suddenly.
"I know what you're thinking." said Hou Qing Lin. He smiled and said, "Lin Feng, you always rely on yourself. You don't owe me or anyone else anything. There's an origin, but it's not because of you. When you break through to the Zun Qi layer, he will come and talk to you."
"An origin, but not because of me?" Lin Feng still didn't understand so he said, "I understand, I will continue to become stronger."
"Good." said Hou Qing Lin smiling. He shook his hand and medals appeared.
"Made with pure Qi." said Hou Qing Lin. Two medals appeared, one with Lin Feng's name and one with Qiu Yue Xin's name. They were officially imperial cultivation disciples.
"Alright, let's wait for the others." said Hou Qing Lin sitting down cross-legged on a cloud.
Lin Feng and Qiu Yue Xin said nothing. They talked and waited. One day later, the third person came out. Lin Feng recognized him, it was Lin Ruo Tian. He was surprised to see Lin Feng and Qiu Yue Xin already there. Too bad, he hadn't ranked first!
