The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 916: Prelude to the Decisive Battle

The day of the decisive battle against the Royal Sword Team had finally arrived.

Nearly everyone in the imperial capital was discussing this match.

Given the Royal Sword Team's historical dominance, most had initially assumed they would crush the Tianfeng Sword Team without any chance of defeat.

But three days ago, Ling Feng had overwhelmingly defeated Liu Fanyu, a member of the Royal Sword Team.

Though Liu Fanyu was among the team's weaker members, his strength was still nothing to scoff at. Ling Feng's ability to "Insta-kill" Liu Fanyu had suddenly made this match unpredictable.

Could the dark horse Tianfeng Sword Team, having fought their way through the Five Courts' Sword Team Grand Competition, continue their streak and topple the undefeated legend?

This battle had undoubtedly captured the hearts of countless spectators!

Early in the morning, Vice Director Tong Chengtai gathered all Tianfeng Sword Team members to deliver an impassioned speech, hyping them up with promises of glory for the academy and generous rewards if they won.

The team's fan club was already prepared.

Wang Yishan, Ouyang Jing, Zhou Kai, and Liu Yunfei had tied red headbands with the words "Victory is ours" around their foreheads, organizing a large group of students to cheer for the Tianfeng Sword Team.

As for the female supporters Lin Xian'er, Qin Wanwan, Zhou Yun, and Su Hongxiu, they abandoned all pretense of ladylike restraint, fully embracing their roles as enthusiastic fangirls.

In truth, nearly every student in Tianwei Academy now regarded the Tianfeng Sword Team as heroes.

After all, this was the closest the academy had ever come to claiming the championship. Every student felt a shared sense of pride.

"Hahaha, see that? Three of the Tianfeng Sword Team's competing members were trained by the one and only Leng Jianfeng!"

"Oh, Instructor Wang, didn't you say two years ago that I had terrible luck being assigned to the East Court? How's your face feeling now? Stings, doesn't it?" freewёbnoνel-com

"Tsk tsk, Mentor Song, wasn't it you who bragged about the South Court's genius? Why isn't he here today?"

"Oh, Instructor Li, you showed up too? Weren't you the one who said the East Court was hopeless?"

"..."

Leng Jianfeng stood among the mentors, gleefully taunting those around him. The higher-ranking mentors could only swallow their frustration in silence.

Ling Feng, Jiang Xiaofan, and Li Bufan, all of them had been his students!

The other mentors could do nothing but stew in silent humiliation, their expressions as if they'd swallowed flies.

"Hehe..."

Leng Jianfeng reveled in the satisfaction of finally having the last laugh!

Just then, he spotted a familiar figure and immediately called out, "Mentor Su, you deserve credit too!"

It was the beautiful mentor Su Qingxuan, who had just arrived.

Hearing Leng Jianfeng's voice, a string of dark lines appeared on her forehead. She raised a delicate hand to her head and showed a look that said, "I don't know this guy."

While she didn't dislike him, Leng Jianfeng's shameless gloating and talent for provoking others made him a walking target for resentment.

Su Qingxuan quickly joined the female mentors, her gaze settling on Ling Feng with admiration.

His growth had been unbelievable. A year ago, when he first arrived at Tianwei Academy, who could have imagined he would one day represent the academy in battle?

Sensing her gaze, Ling Feng glanced back and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

He held deep gratitude for Mentor Su. She had been an excellent teacher, imparting invaluable knowledge, including the Nine Refinements of Mystic Fire technique. Through her, he had even earned the favor of the Empire's Top Poison Master, Su Dongling, and inherited his Classic Formula of Ten-thousand Poisons.

Su Qingxuan bit her lip and returned a determined look of encouragement.

Ling Feng nodded again before refocusing. This battle would be won!

"Ling Feng, I can't fight alongside you, but I believe in you. With you leading, we will win!"

Though still confined to a wheelchair, Gu Tengfeng had insisted on being present to witness this match.

"Captain, don't worry. Victory is ours."

Ling Feng met Gu Tengfeng's gaze solemnly. "Just watch."

Gu Tengfeng laughed heartily before turning to Gong Cheng. "Gong Cheng, you've always been exceptional, you just lacked confidence. Remember, you're fighting for both of us now."

Gong Cheng nodded firmly. "I'll give it everything, Captain."

Nearby, Jiang Xiaofan swung the Sword of Silent Awe restlessly, his brow furrowed in frustration.

"Xiaofan, what's wrong?" Ling Feng asked.

"It's nothing..." Jiang Xiaofan hesitated. "It's just Master Sword's blade, it feels... off. I can't grasp how to wield it properly."

"Don't force it." Ling Feng patted his shoulder. "The match is about to start. Don't overthink it."

"Right." Jiang Xiaofan nodded. "I'll just use my old greatsword instead."

While the Sword of Silent Awe was superior, familiarity mattered more in battle.

"Qianxue, nervous?"

Ling Feng glanced again at Mu Qianxue beside him. For today's decisive battle, this long-hidden trump card of his was finally unleashed. In many ways, she was the greatest wild card that could influence the outcome.

"A little." Mu Qianxue clenched her fists, her nerves settling under Ling Feng's steady gaze. With him beside her, there was nothing to fear.

"Let's do this together!" Noticing the black cat Ye Yi still in her arms, Ling Feng reminded her, "By the way, demonic pets aren't allowed in the match."

"I know." Mu Qianxue leaned in and whispered, "But Ye Yi isn't just my spirit animal companion, he's also my weapon. Besides fighting alongside me, he can transform into a divine weapon."

"Transform?"

Ling Feng’s eyes narrowed in surprise as he looked at Mu Qianxue and her cat. Her background was clearly more extraordinary than he had imagined. Everything about her surpassed all expectations.
