Chapter 77: Assassination
The scene in front of Chu Feng changed once again. Seeing the blue sky once again, he felt a little dazed.
“Mi-meh!” The Mirage Butterfly teleported Chu Feng out of the wilderness. After a few teleportations, Chu Feng was back in Dibei Base City, in the resting area that belonged to him alone. As if nothing had happened, he went straight to bed.
The next day, Wan Wanqing sent Chu Feng a message saying that the exchange competition had ended and that they were about to leave Dibei Base City. The prize for the match was two trophies, one for Chu Feng and the other for Liao Xuanxuan. The latter had faced a battle of wits and courage against Zhu Xi and won towards the end of the exchange competition.
Chu Feng looked at his trophy and realized that it was much smaller than Liao Xuanxuan’s. He was a little speechless and said, “Senior sister Liao, can I touch your...”
“Sure,” Liao Xuanxuan said.
Chu Feng held Liao Xuanxuan’s trophy and was speechless. Why was it that he had put in the most effort but did not get the biggest trophy?
Principal Gao was also with them. He smiled and said, “Why don’t you leave your Trophy at Diming Third High School? In exchange, the starting capital of 10 million that was given to you doesn’t have to be returned, and we’ll also hire you as an honorary teacher at Diming Third High School, allowing you to graduate with an excellent evaluation. What do you think?”
“Sure,” Chu Feng conveniently threw the trophy to principal Gao.

The reason why Diming First High School has always suppressed us is because of this silver trophy. To be honest, Diming First High School is nothing!”
An Shuisheng whispered, “Principal Gao, I’m a student of Diming First High School...”
“I forgot, haha,” Principal Gao was at a loss for words. How could he forget about An Shuisheng?
Chu Feng said, “Isn’t Wan Shijie also from Diming Third High School? Didn’t she also get first place back then?”
Principal Gao said helplessly, “Do you think I can compete with City Lord Wan? The trophy she got had been directly taken away by City Lord Wan. It’s still in the guest room of City Lord Wan’s residence.”
Chu Feng laughed. He didn’t expect City Lord Wan, who was famous, to love his daughter so much. On the other hand, he was quite surprised that they haven’t encountered any attacks along the way.
“Principal, What’s my current ranking on the human assassination list?”
“You’ve gone up a few more ranks, now at 166th,” Principal Gao suddenly laughed, “Are you wondering why there aren’t any foreign races attacking you?”
Chu Feng said, “That’s right. Isn’t it embarrassing for me?”
Principal Gao said, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine. Once you return to Diming City, go see City Lord Wan. I’ll be taking this trophy.”
“Okay.”Chu Feng nodded.
A hundred miles away, a dignified middle-aged man stood in the sky. City Lord Wan looked into the distance where a strange-looking human-shaped creature was standing.
Absolon smiled. “I didn’t expect City Lord Wan to personally protect a junior.”
“The leader of the Foreign Race Cult, Absolon. I didn’t expect that the cult leader would personally make a move against a junior,” City Lord Wan’s eyes were cold. He had high hopes for Chu Feng. To think Absolon would personally come to assassinate Chu Feng. Under City Lord Wan’s calm exterior, a raging fire was brewing, and his body was emitting traces of a ghostly aura.
“Looks like the two of us have the same thoughts,” Absolon looked at City Lord Wan and sighed, “The S-rank beast tamer talent of Ghost Absorption should be a nurturing-type talent, right? It’s great to have a nurturing-type talent, one can make one’s beasts give it their all at the same time.”
He looked around, and the ghost aura had already spread to his side. Absolon continued, “This is our first meeting. There’s really no need to make a move, right?”
City Lord Wan ignored Absolon. As the cult leader of the Foreign Race Cult in the Dibei Region, Absolon had slaughtered countless human geniuses and had also even bewitched many commander-level Beastmasters. Now that he had met him, how could he let him go so easily?
“Kill!” The ghost aura instantly erupted, and three ghost-type beasts, namely the Shadow Ghost Emperor, the Azure Baleful Ghost, and the Crimson Glow Ghost charged out from the void. Their bodies were filled with killing intent! These three ghost-type beasts had charged out from the subspace created by the Azure Baleful Ghost. The Shadow Ghost Emperor had concealed the subspace, even hiding it from the mystic race’s Absolon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAbsolon’s expression changed drastically as he was instantly severely injured by the three ghost-type beasts. He asked in disbelief, “The person in the City Lord’s Mansion is your substitute?”
City Lord Wan still ignored him. He only looked at Absolon coldly and ordered the three ghost-type beasts to continue attacking.
Absolon hurriedly dodged the attacks. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind, and his voice was extremely cold, “You came to the Dibei Base City right from the start of the exchange competition! Did you long see through his huge potential?”
City Lord Wan was still cold. He had indeed seen through Chu Feng’s potential a long time ago. That day, Principal Gao had specially come over and asked him to go to the Dibei Base City together. Principal Gao had even told him that Chu Feng was the genius Beastmaster who had cleared the awakening-level heritage secret realm, which was why City Lord Wan had agreed to his request.
The foreign spies still thought that City Lord Wan was in the City Lord’s Mansion when in reality, that was just a substitute that City Lord Wan’s beast, the Transforming Ghost, had transformed into. The real City Lord Wan had long been hiding outside the Dibei Base City.
Absolon said angrily, “Wan Canghai, do you really think that you can beat me? Your beasts are only at the overlord level two, and mine are at the overlord level four. With a difference of two levels, just one of my beasts is more than enough to beat all three of yours!”
With that, Absolon released a spiritual wave that shot toward the Shadow Ghost Emperor. In the next moment, the spiritual wave suddenly disappeared, and a set of armor appeared between Absolon and the Shadow Ghost Emperor, dispersing all of Absolon’s power. There was nothing in this armor. It was the special-type beast, an overlord level 5 World-suppressing General Soul.
“Perhaps the City Lord Wan alone won’t be able to kill you, but if I’m included as well?” A loud voice rang out.
Absolon’s expression immediately changed. He only wanted to run away immediately. The person who had come was the president of the Beastmasters Association of the Dibei Region, Wang Yuan. He could be said to be the strongest person in the Dibei Region with two overlord level 5 beasts and three overlord level 4 beasts. As for what his sixth beast was, no one knew. All the foreign races that he had seen his sixth beast had already died at his hands.
“For Wang Yuan and Wan Canghai to attack together, I didn’t expect that I, Absolon, would have such importance,” Absolon said hatefully.
