# Chapter 1764: Consultation

Ji Wuyou felt the auras of the three people descend upon him, his gaze flickering. Aside from that arrogance, there was also a cold indifference as he swept his eyes over Lin Feng.

This Lin Feng was formidable in strength, and the other two were not weak either. If the three of them joined forces, even he would likely face defeat. In the two previous clashes, he hadn't gained the upper hand even when facing Lin Feng alone.

As for Yu Wenjing, who was in Ji Wuyou's arms, her expression was even colder. She had lost—defeated by Hou Qinglin, blasted away by Lin Feng. Today, she had suffered a complete defeat.

"The ones on the battle platform lose, and immediately someone from below interferes. It seems you're accustomed to bullying the weak with numbers," Hou Qinglin said coldly. "The Star Gate Sect is nothing more than this."

"Second Senior Brother, look—could the few of us form a sect as well? If people like them can make something of themselves, then if we find a few more people, wouldn't we easily surpass them?" Lin Feng said with a smile, causing Hou Qinglin's expression to shift slightly as he looked at Lin Feng.

"What would the sect be called?" Hou Qinglin asked Lin Feng.

"How about Heavenly Terrace?" Lin Feng smiled slightly, causing Hou Qinglin's pupils to contract slightly. Tian Chi's heart also stirred. Heavenly Terrace—it had been a long time since he'd heard that name.

"Overestimating yourselves," Ji Wuyou said coldly. Then he turned with Yu Wenjing, flickered, and stepped away, saying icily, "Let today's matter be recorded for now. When we fight again, I will no longer hold back."

"Ah!" The crowd's gazes froze upon hearing Ji Wuyou's words. His two attacks had already been extremely powerful, yet he had still held back without unleashing his full strength. If he did unleash it, it would probably be even more terrifying. No wonder he was the one dominating the top spot on the Hidden King List: Human List, and the younger brother of Ji Shang. If he fought at full power, everyone still believed Lin Feng probably wouldn't be Ji Wuyou's match.

However, as a newcomer, Lin Feng had already achieved this much, opening everyone's eyes wide. Even Jing Shou, who ranked second, would probably have trouble dealing with Lin Feng.

Jing Shou was among the crowd. His hands were still invisible, crossed over his chest as he looked at the three figures on the battle platform, revealing a faint smile. These fellows were indeed formidable, making even Ji Wuyou retreat temporarily. Given Ji Wuyou's pride, if he could defeat the three opponents, he would certainly have fought. Clearly, Ji Wuyou had no confidence, which was why he left, not daring to face three alone.

And since the Star Gate Sect side was already in the wrong, with Ji Wuyou's pride, would he call a few people up to help him fight?

"Running away with your tail between your legs, yet you still speak so righteously. Who asked him to hold back just now?" A rough voice rolled out from below the battle platform. Tantai stepped forward, looking at Lin Feng and the others, grinning widely. "Lin Feng, your strength has greatly surprised me. I've only just stepped onto the back of the Hidden King List, and you've already broken into the top ten."

"These two brothers are truly impressive. Tantai admires them." Tantai cupped his hands toward Hou Qinglin and Tian Chi. According to Great Pest, these two were Lin Feng's fellow disciples from the same sect. He wondered what kind of person could teach such outstanding individuals.

"Let's go. It's not convenient to talk here," Lin Feng said with a smile. Then the group flickered and left.

As for Yu Wenhou and the others from the Star Gate Sect, they were already gone. Today's miserable defeat left them with no face to stay. They had originally wanted to establish their authority through Pu Yang, but instead suffered such a painful loss.

"Let's go check the King-Sealing Hall," many people said, flickering toward the King-Sealing Hall. Today's battles on the Hidden King List: Human List platform had been very intense, yet somewhat unclear. In this situation, those responsible for the rankings on the Hidden King List in the King-Sealing Hall would deliberate on new rankings based on this battle.

Many people rushed to the King-Sealing Hall. Sure enough, a new ranking had already been set. The seven people from the battle platform were all on the first row of the Hidden King List: Human List.

Ji Wuyou was still first. Lin Feng had only clashed with him, unable to determine who was stronger or weaker, so Ji Wuyou firmly held the top spot. To take this position, there would inevitably need to be a battle.

Behind Ji Wuyou was still Jing Shou.

And behind Jing Shou, Lin Feng's name had suddenly appeared. This scene caused the crowd's pupils to freeze. Lin Feng hadn't fought the person ranked third, but he had pushed him out, showing recognition of Lin Feng's strength. He had been forcefully placed directly in the third seat on the Human List.

Hou Qinglin, Hidden King List: Human List sixth, replacing Pu Yang. After all, he had defeated Pu Yang and Yu Wenjing. But because Lin Feng was inserted ahead of him, he wasn't in Pu Yang's former fifth position, but sixth.

Yu Wenjing, Hidden King List: Human List seventh. She had lost to Hou Qinglin, but she had technically defeated Tian Chi.

Tian Chi, Hidden King List: Human List eighth.

As for Pu Yang and Leng Xia, they both ranked behind Tian Chi, dropping from fifth and sixth to ninth and tenth.

"I'm afraid the former third and fourth won't be satisfied. Moreover, Hou Qinglin hasn't fought them either. If battles continue, the rankings will probably keep changing," the crowd thought to themselves. Of course, this change was already terrifying. The top ten seats on the Hidden King List: Human List hadn't moved for a while, and this shift was like an earthquake.

As for Lin Feng and Hou Qinglin, they weren't too concerned about the Hidden King List rankings. What they valued was strength. Being on the front of the Hidden King List was certainly proof of formidable power, but they were more focused on the resources they could obtain—the War King Hall, the Declaration Hall—they could reach higher levels. And there was the Immortal Mountain outside the city; they wondered when they could set foot there. It seemed only those on the Heavenly King-Sealing List were qualified to go there.

In a courtyard, Lin Feng, Hou Qinglin, Tantai, and the others were all present. Even Qin Wu had come. He had also witnessed Lin Feng's great display of power today.

"Lin Feng, I really didn't expect your combat strength to be this formidable. The stronger the opponent, the stronger you become. Those fellows from other academies originally wanted to come find you for some Flood Dragon, but after the battle ended, they didn't even fart and slunk away from our War King Academy," Qin Wu said with a loud laugh. During Lin Feng's battle, news had spread below the battle platform. Qin Wu already knew that Lin Feng was the former Heaven-Forsaken One of Sky-Gazing Ancient Capital.

"This is inside the War King Academy. If it were outside, they probably wouldn't be so easy to deal with," Lin Feng said with a smile.

"That's true. In the War King Academy, they don't dare to act recklessly. Only the Ji Gate is arrogant. But today, the three of you gave the Ji Gate a thorough lesson and killed the Star Gate Sect's prestige. This is the first time I've seen the Ji Gate suffer such a complete defeat."

When Qin Wu first met Lin Feng, he thought Lin Feng would have his edge worn down by the Ji Gate, but the reality had greatly exceeded his expectations.

"By the way, are you really planning to establish a sect in the War King Academy?" Qin Wu asked, recalling what Lin Feng had said on the battle platform.

Lin Feng glanced at his two senior brothers, Hou Qinglin and Tian Chi. The three exchanged looks, all showing some interest.

Heavenly Terrace was something they had always remembered. Rebuilding Heavenly Terrace and maintaining order in the Small World was their wish, something they would accomplish sooner or later.

And in this War King Academy, there were countless powerful individuals. If placed outside, they would all be monstrous talents with great growth potential and bright futures. If they could recruit some people from the War King Academy to establish Heavenly Terrace, it would indeed be very useful. They just didn't know how strong the cohesion of a sect established in the War King Academy could be.

"I do have this idea. I'm just not sure if the time is right now," Lin Feng nodded.

"If you establish a sect, I, Qin Wu, am willing to join and be with you all."

"Hehe, count me in too," Tantai said with a grin. Even the Ji Gate's mere Star Gate Sect was so arrogant. If Lin Feng and the other two took the lead in establishing a sect, they would sooner or later suppress the Star Gate Sect completely.

"I'm already half a member of Heavenly Terrace," Great Pest said with a smile.

"Not bad. We already have this scale. If we develop a few more people in the future, we can become a powerful potential sect. In a few years, the War King Academy will have a place for us," Tian Chi said with a smile. He wholeheartedly supported establishing Heavenly Terrace.

"En. If we can have a small legion, it will be easier for us to complete the Declaration Hall's trials together in the future," Qin Wu said. Many sects in the War King Academy were established because of the Declaration Hall's existence. Just like Lin Feng's trip to the Demon Swamp this time—if a group of people had worked together, it would have been simpler, and they could have looked out for each other. Lin Feng was able to retreat safely this time because of his treasures and methods. Otherwise, he would never have been able to seize the Flood Dragon.
