# Chapter 1748: Calling Lin Feng to Account

Shan Meng's bones were being torn apart at this moment, and he felt as if his body was about to explode. Sensing Lin Feng's killing intent, he had no doubt that this newcomer who had just stepped into War King Academy would dare to kill him on the spot.

At this moment, Shan Meng felt a trace of regret. If he hadn't been oppressing Lin Feng and the others all along, he wouldn't have pushed them to the point of establishing a life-and-death contract with him.

"I'll give them." Shan Meng's voice was weak. Then, with a flash of light, he took out several War King Tokens, each bearing a horizontal mark. The War King Tokens obtained by newcomers upon entering the academy were first-grade War King Tokens.

Lin Feng accepted the War King Tokens, staring coldly at Shan Meng. "This palace courtyard where you live—let me have it, how about it?"

Shan Meng's pale face stiffened. However, seeing those pupils, he could only nod. A life-and-death contract bound life and death; his life was in the other's hands. What could he dare not comply with?

"Fine." Shan Meng nodded.

"My two brothers haven't been assigned courtyards yet." Lin Feng continued coldly.

"I'll arrange it properly." Shan Meng said in a low voice, obeying orders.

"Good. Then arrange it now." Lin Feng still held Shan Meng's body, speaking to him.

"The two courtyards next to mine are occupied by my friends. They're willing to give them to you." Shan Meng spoke, causing the two people behind him to stiffen. However, seeing that Shan Meng's life was in Lin Feng's hands, they let it go. A courtyard wasn't worth arguing with Shan Meng over.

"It should have been like this from the start." Lin Feng said coldly. Then, with a tremor of his palm, a terrifying force rampaged through Shan Meng's body, causing him to fall toward the ground below. Although Lin Feng hadn't killed him, Shan Meng probably wouldn't recover for at least half a year. As for whether to kill him or not, to Lin Feng, it didn't matter much.

"I wonder who was seeking their own death." Tantai and the others stepped forward, feeling the pent-up anger in their hearts finally released. Shan Meng had been provoking and humiliating them at every turn, and now he had suffered this disgrace. Not to mention his injuries, even if he recovered, he would find it hard to hold his head high. He was used to bullying others, but now he was being bullied by Lin Feng.

"Take these War King Tokens." Lin Feng handed the War King Tokens to Tantai and the others. Qin Wu stepped forward and said, "War King Tokens come in mother and child tokens. This War King Token of yours is a child token. Implant it into your brow, and the mother War King Token will register your existence. If you die, the academy can learn of it through the mother War King Token, meaning your name will be erased from War King Academy. Additionally, if your War King Token's grade increases, the person in charge of the War King Tokens will directly upgrade the mother token's grade, and the child token will sense it and upgrade as well."

Lin Feng glanced at the small War King Token in his hand, smiled slightly, and nodded. Then he directly implanted it into his brow. With a thought, the War King Token appeared faintly, emitting a faint glow.

"This thing is quite ingenious." Lin Feng smiled slightly. At this moment, Tian Wuji stepped forward, landing opposite Lin Feng. Battle intent blazed on his body as he said coldly, "I'll let what you've done slide for today. After our Ji Sect makes its judgment, you can prepare to accept your punishment."

As Tian Wuji spoke, his figure flickered. He arrived before Shan Meng, who was being supported by two people. With an ugly expression, he flicked his sleeve and said, "Take him away."

With that, he stepped lightly, and the group actually left.

"Accept punishment?" Lin Feng's expression stiffened slightly. These people of the Ji Sect were far too arrogant. Did they think of themselves as the enforcers of War King Academy?

The surrounding people watched Lin Feng with interest. This person's combat power just now was indeed not weak, easily crushing Shan Meng. However, although the Ji Sect had always been domineering, and this time Shan Meng had gone too far in bullying Lin Feng and the others, it was still related to the Ji Sect. After all, the Ji Sect was in charge of this assessment. Shan Meng had been humiliated so badly; the Ji Sect would surely not let it go easily.

"Newcomer, if the Ji Sect calls you to account, just endure it for now. Cultivate quietly in the academy for a while and build up your strength." Someone called out to Lin Feng, advising him.

"That's right. You probably can't even deal with Tian Wuji, and the Ji Sect's power is too vast. Just on the Hidden King List: Human List, three of the top ten are from the Ji Sect. None of them are people you can provoke."

"Thank you all for the advice. I know my limits." Lin Feng smiled at the people around him. Then he stepped toward Shan Meng's courtyard ahead. From now on, this place would be his.

"Heh, people who can enter War King Academy are indeed all proud and arrogant. Besides, this person's combat power is indeed quite good, so it's no wonder he's like this. It seems he won't listen to advice. But after spending some time in the academy, this kind of temperament will probably be worn down." A person in the void said with a smile. He remembered that when they first entered the academy, they were all heroic and ambitious, vowing to dominate the academy. But that arrogance was gradually worn away, replaced by more steadiness.

Inside the mansion, Great Pest felt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and couldn't help sighing, "These Ji Sect people really know how to pick a good place."

"That's only natural. The Ji Sect is powerful; no faction in War King Academy can contend with it." Qin Wu spoke. "This time, Shan Meng made things difficult for you. Humiliating him and obtaining the War King Tokens was satisfying, but next, you'll have to bear the Ji Sect's wrath. Don't act impulsively."

"Besides, with your cultivation talent, Lin Feng, you'll eventually trample over many people on the Hidden King List: Human List. As long as the strong ones on that list can't touch you, those on the Earth List won't bully the weak either, or the Ji Sect would inevitably face criticism." Qin Wu reminded Lin Feng and the others.

"So you're saying we have to keep our heads down and live?" Tantai said with some displeasure.

"As long as Ji Shang is around, the Ji Sect's position in War King Academy is unshakable. Especially after Ying Cheng was enfeoffed as king, I heard Ji Shang has gone far away for bitter cultivation. When he returns, he'll probably want to be enfeoffed as king too. Then the Ji Sect will be even more at its peak."

"I understand. Let's not worry about these things for now. I'll go take a walk to the Declaration Hall." Lin Feng had just entered the courtyard when he went out again, surprising Qin Wu. This guy's first destination was actually the Declaration Hall, quite different from ordinary people. When most people entered War King Academy, the first place they wanted to go was the War King Hall. Lin Feng was indeed unconventional.

However, in another courtyard at this moment, they were already discussing how to deal with Lin Feng.

Yu Wenhou and Yu Wenjing sat in the main seats. They had originally been celebrating Yu Wenjing's forceful entry into the Hidden King List: Human List at the thirtieth position upon entering the academy, with her War King Token upgrading. But now, they saw a group of people leading the injured Shan Meng in, ruining the atmosphere.

"That Lin Feng again?" Yu Wenhou's tone showed displeasure.

"That's right, Yu Wen. You must avenge me. How can our Ji Sect be humiliated?" Shan Meng's face was twisted. Now that he was free from Lin Feng's control, malicious thoughts arose in him.

"Shan Meng, you've been wronged. From now on, you don't need to concern yourself with Ji Sect matters. Just focus on healing and cultivating well." Yu Wenhou said calmly.

"Yu Wen..." Shan Meng's face instantly turned pale. Yu Wen was about to remove him from the Ji Sect.

"Your injuries and cultivation are what matter. As for Lin Feng, don't worry. I'll avenge you myself." Yu Wenhou's voice remained calm. Shan Meng was silent for a moment, then bowed to Yu Wen and said, "Since that's the case, I'll rest assured."

With that, Shan Meng was helped away by someone, a look of desolation on his face. To the Ji Sect, he no longer had value. As for revenge, he didn't doubt it would happen.

"Princess, this Lin Feng spoke rudely to you during the assessment and killed Shang Yu. I was planning to deal with him later, but it seems this person can't stay patient." Yu Wenhou's expression turned cold. Did Lin Feng think that just because he had entered War King Academy, everything would go smoothly?

"How do you plan to deal with him?" Yu Wenjing asked Yu Wenhou.

"I'll leave it to you, Princess, to decide. As for Shang Jun's side, that's not my concern." Yu Wenhou said lightly. Then he looked at the people standing beside him and said, "Which of you will make a trip? Go tell him to come here and accept his punishment."

"Yu Wen, that person is very proud. Telling him to come accept punishment—he probably won't come." Tian Wuji spoke.

"The Ji Sect calls someone to account. Would a newcomer dare not come?" At this moment, someone below said coldly.

"Hasn't War King Academy produced a few proud newcomers before? Those who dared to defy the Ji Sect's summons—what happened to them?" Another person said just as coldly.

"Today is Princess Yu Wen's day of entering the academy, but this person ruined the atmosphere. Tian Wuji, do you have the confidence to 'invite' him here?" A young man asked Tian Wuji.

"This person's physical body has reached the imperial level. He defeated Shan Meng with one punch. His strength is not weak. I might be able to defeat him, but Qin Wu is also there. If I go, there might be some uncertainty." Tian Wuji said lightly. Qin Wu was ranked twenty-ninth on the Hidden King List: Human List, ahead of him by quite a bit.

"Xi Mu, it seems we need you to make this trip." Yu Wenhou looked at the white-clothed young man and spoke.

"Since that's the case, I'll make this trip for the princess." Xi Mu stood up, put away the folding fan in his hand, and a faint cold smile appeared in his deep eyes. "It's been a long time since I've dealt with a newcomer. Today, let's see how arrogant they are."

"Remember, don't be too harsh. Just hand him over to the princess." Yu Wenhou instructed.

"Understood." Xi Mu said, then turned and walked outside.

"Xi Mu, I saw his name on the Hidden King List, but I forgot what rank he was." Yu Wenjing spoke.

"Eighteenth." Yu Wenhou revealed a faint smile. With Xi Mu making a move, he believed that even Qin Wu wouldn't dare to move!
