76: Recruiting people

Seeing Li Feng full of vigor and spirit, Li Wuchang grew even happier.

He knew that Li Feng must have had a huge harvest in the Novice assessment.

He was happy for Li Feng.

Thinking of this, Li Wuchang asked, “How was this Novice assessment, and what were your results?”

Li Feng nodded, a smile also appearing on his face: “So-so, I guess. I gained a lot. From today on, I’m an official Lord. I’ll look out for you from now on.”

After speaking, Li Feng clapped Li Wuchang on the shoulder, acting like an older brother.

“You brat, your wings have grown strong, huh? You dare to talk to me like that now.”

Li Wuchang “flew into a rage,” grabbing Li Feng’s ear.

“Ow, ow, ow! I’m sorry, Uncle, let go, quickly let go!”

At this moment, Li Feng no longer had any trace of his awe-inspiring demeanor; he was completely a naughty child being scolded by a parent.

This scene also left the Novice Lords of Chao Xiong First High School dumbfounded.

This was a formidable person who had broken a world-class record, a peerless genius with a high probability of becoming a Godly Lord in the future.

Yet, he was being pulled by the ear like this.

It was simply… Someone excitedly pulled out their phone and recorded this rare moment.

When Li Feng truly became a Supreme Lord in the future, this would be the most precious piece of gossip and unofficial history.

At that time, it could even be kept as a family heirloom for future generations.

After a while, Li Wuchang finally let go, saying grumpily, “Such a big boast. Anyone who didn’t know would think you took first place in this Novice assessment. Keep it in check from now on.”

Li Feng rubbed his reddened ear and said, “You’re right, I accidentally did take first place.”

In an instant, the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

The surrounding parents all looked at Li Feng, their faces full of astonishment.

First place in the Novice assessment?

A single competition zone had at least a million people, which meant he stood above more than 990,000 other Novice Lords.

If this were true, it would be nothing short of an earthquake.

Chao Xiong City’s foundation was not deep.

Although there were Lord families, they were far from comparable to powerful Lord families like the Yulin Fang Family or the Hekou He Family.

The last time Chao Xiong City produced a first-place winner in the Novice assessment was more than fifty years ago.

Li Wuchang was also stunned.

His first reaction was that Li Feng was lying.

The surrounding parents might not know, but how could he not?

The Troops Li Feng awakened was Beedrill, one of the three useless Troops. Just surviving until the end was already difficult; how could he possibly take first place in the Novice assessment?

He was very angry, because Li Feng had actually lied to him.

He was about to scold Li Feng.

Buzz!

Just then, the teleportation channel suddenly hummed.

Immediately after, before everyone’s eyes, it began to twist, eventually transforming into a giant light screen.

At the same time, the short-haired middle-aged man who had previously hosted the Lord's Festival appeared. He announced loudly:

“This Novice assessment has officially ended. Next, the will of heaven will announce the assessment points and rankings, and distribute rewards. All Novice Lords and their families are welcome to check them.”

His voice echoed over the school, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

As soon as his voice fell, text appeared on the light screen.

【Competition Zone No. 023 Ranking】

【Novice Assessment Ranking】

First Place: Li Feng 【Calamity Controller】, Points: 365,113,258

Seventy-third Place: Sun Yun 【Elf Super Cute】, Points: 335,362

One hundred fifty-sixth Place: Zhou Yong 【Phantom Hunter King】, Points: 183,593

...Three hundred ninety-fifth Place: Wang Chen 【Returning to Dragon Ancestry】, Points: 175,933

...Lords from the same city were almost always teleported to the same competition zone.

Lords who were eliminated early did not know.

But all the remaining Novice Lords were in this Competition Zone No. 023.

Boom!

Everyone subconsciously looked at the first-place name, as if struck by lightning.

Li Wuchang was no exception; he stood there dumbfounded, unable to help but open his mouth wide.

His gaze quickly scanned the light screen.

He had, after all, once been a powerful Lord, and his physical fitness was many times that of an ordinary person.

He quickly scanned all several thousand names, and only one person was named Li Feng.

It turned out Li Feng really hadn't lied; he really hadn't deceived him.

He truly was the first-place winner of the Novice assessment.

It was just that long string of numbers that made his eyes dizzy.

These numbers, the same as his QQ account, were really assessment points?

Seeing Li Wuchang’s dumbfounded expression, Li Feng couldn’t help but chuckle, “Uncle, aren’t my results good? I didn’t embarrass you, did I?”

Hearing this, Li Wuchang nodded woodenly.

He still hadn't recovered from the shock.

Not to mention Li Wuchang, no one in the entire venue had reacted.

Even the short-haired middle-aged man, who was used to big storms, looked bewildered at this moment.

365 million points?

Was this really a score a human could achieve?

Boom!

Suddenly, the sky darkened, and a blood-red giant hand descended from the heavens, aiming directly at Li Feng.

As early as half a month ago, powerful foreign Lords had smuggled themselves into Dragon Country territory.

Count Caugh was one of them.

After exchanging information with his spies, he chose to stake out Chao Xiong City.

He didn't expect that he would actually succeed in staking out someone.

In his original plan, if that dominant figure named Li Feng was indeed in this city.

He would not show himself, but instead contact Li Feng privately, offering incentives to attract him to join The Empire of the Setting Sun.

But now, what the hell with that plan, get lost.

365 million points, this was too terrifying!

Lord Goethe, five hundred years ago, only had over fifty million points, and he eventually grew into a Godly Lord.

With Li Feng’s results, becoming a Godly Lord in the future would clearly not be difficult.

He couldn't sit still and decided to act, first capturing Li Feng and forcibly taking him back to The Empire of the Setting Sun.

Take him back first, and then slowly cultivate a relationship.

“In Dragon Country's words, it’s: first cook the raw rice into cooked rice.”

Count Caugh thought to himself.

“Presumptuous!”

The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.

But the short-haired middle-aged man, who had long fought on the Endless Continent, reacted immediately.

His figure suddenly appeared in front of Li Feng, and a dazzling golden light erupted from his body as he fiercely punched out.

Buzz!

The void vibrated, and the giant blood-red hand was shattered by the punch.

Hmph!

In the shadows, Count Caugh grunted, a trickle of crimson flowing from the corner of his mouth.

“Get out of the way!”

Just then, a loud shout rang out, like a thunderclap exploding in the sky.

Golden feathers rained down from the clouds, eventually transforming into a ten-meter-tall twelve-winged golden angel in mid-air.

The angel wielded a massive broadsword, bringing it down heavily.

For a moment, golden light permeated the entire sports field; the whole world was left with only gold...
