Chapter 1643: Prizes
“I lost.”
Finally, Yan Feng took a deep breath and admitted he lost. He closed his eyes and when he opened them again, he was looking at Lin Feng in a cold way. He had told Lin Feng not to get close to Mu Lin Xue several times, and not only had Lin Feng gotten close to her, he had also developed an intimate relationship with her.
“That’s all?” said Mu Lin Xue. “Yan Feng, you lost, so in the future, I never want to hear you call me your girlfriend again.”
“Mu Lin Xue, you can’t escape from me.” said Yan Feng.
“Before the tournament, you thought you were the winner. You even questioned the master of Gold-Fire Tower. But now you’re just a shameless loser and that’s all you’ll ever be.” said Mu Lin Xue mockingly.
“Hmph!” Yan Feng groaned coldly. He looked at the Level Nine Teacher and bowed, then he said respectfully, “I offended you. Please forgive me. I am too young and impulsive.”
“Enough.” said the professor. He didn’t care about young people that much anyways. He looked at the crowd and said, “The tournament is over. Now, it’s time for the winners to get their prizes. Everybody stand up.”
Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue moved forwards, Yan Feng was standing next to them.
“The prize for the winner of the tournament is fire.” said the Level Nine Professor. He shook his hand and suddenly, an imperial fire snake appeared.
“If you want to modify that snake, remember that you’ll need the help of a medium-level or high-level emperor, otherwise, you could get hurt.” said the Level Nine Professor to Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue.
The Level Nine Professor sealed the snake in a purple empty space and smiled at Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue, “To whom should give I the prize?”
“To him.”
“Give it to her!”
Mu Lin Xue and Lin Feng talked at the same time, making them laugh. Everybody was speechless. If it had been anyone else, they would have fought to for it.
“You should take it, we only won because of you.” said Mu Lin Xue to Lin Feng, smiling. He had helped her so much and now he even refused the prize. Mu Lin Xue was still confused, why did Lin Feng do so much for her?
Lin Feng shrugged and said, “You should use it, your current fire is holding you back the most from fabricating better weapons.”
“But you also control fire and it could make you stronger.” said Mu Lin Xue, shaking her head.
“You don’t know everything about me, I’m quite strong without it.” said Lin Feng, smiling in a gentle way. Mu Lin Xue just rolled her eyes.
“Alright, I’ve never seen two people like you. Who is going to take it?” asked the Level Nine Professor, smiling. Mu Lin Xue wanted to say something, but Lin Feng said, “If you refuse again, I’m leaving.”
“Eh...” Mu Lin Xue was speechless, but then she nodded and took the fire.
“That armor is a level seven imperial weapon, who wants it?” asked the Level Nine Professor to Yan Feng and his assistant.
“Me.” said Yan Feng impolitely. Then, he immediately took the armor. After that, the professor continued distributing the prizes.
After that, he took out a few Gold-Fire Tower talismans, each had a fire tower carved on them. He distributed them and said, “To those who have this talisman, if you’re in Gold-Fire Tower, and you break it, a strong cultivator will immediately come to your aid.”
“Alright, as we said, the top three participants can choose a teacher in golden-red clothes. They’ll be your teacher for at least a year.” said the Level Nine Professor, smiling. Then, the three professors in golden-red clothes walked forwards. One of them nodded at Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue.
“Lin Feng, we can choose that one.” said Mu Lin Xue. She had seen him nod, so she bowed in front of him.
“Haha, I would be happy to teach them.” said the professor smiling. Yan Feng chose the one who had noticed him as well. Then, it was Hen Chang Tian’s turn, he was already a member of the Gold-Fire Tower, so choosing a teacher was less dramatic for him.
“And you.” said the Level Nine Professor to the seven professors in purple clothes. He had told them that if they wished, they could recruit some disciples as well.
The professors then chose some disciples.
“Yan Feng.” said Yan Feng’s teacher. “You lost this time, but it doesn’t mean much. You’re a great weapon craftsman!”
Yan Feng nodded and bowed before his teacher, “I feel honored to have you as a teacher.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll teach you how to make better weapons. My colleagues in golden red clothes will also help you.” said the professor smiling. He sounded happy. Even if Yan Feng had lost to Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue, he had ranked second!
“Show me your technique. Everybody heard our bet.” said the professor in purple clothes who had bet for Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue winning.
“Relax, I promised it, so I will do it.” said Yan Feng’s teacher.
“Alright, I’m waiting then.” said the professor smiling. He then smiled at Lin Feng and Mu Lin Xue and said, “Do you want to become my disciples?”
“Lin Xue.” said Lin Feng. Mu Lin Xue was smiling at all of these new opportunities.
Lin Feng knew what she was thinking when he saw her smile. He looked at the teacher and said, “Master, I already have a teacher and I would like to stay with them. Besides, I’m not going to stay in Gold-Fire City for too much longer. Lin Xue would love to be your disciple though, if you’d accept her...”
“No wonder. Your teacher must be an incredible deployment spell caster.” said the professor nodding. Lin Feng had incredible deployment spells, so his teacher was probably incredible. Lin Feng couldn’t join them, which was a pity, but Mu Lin Xue wasn’t bad either. She was worth having as a disciple.
“If you accept, I would be happy to have you as a disciple.” said the professor smiling at Mu Lin Xue.
“Thank you, teacher!” said Mu Lin Xue, bowing happily. Now she was officially a disciple of Gold-Fire Tower and she had a teacher. The Mu Clan wouldn’t be able to do anything to her. Her life was finally in her own hands.
Mu Lin Xue stretched out her arm and grabbed Lin Feng’s hands. Lin Feng smiled at her and said, “Everything is alright now.”
“Indeed, everything’s good now.” said Mu Lin Xue nodding. The other professors then chose their disciples. Only a few of them refused to become a professor’s disciple.
“Sister Lin Xue is now a member of Gold-Fire Tower, she has a teacher, and she will even learn from a teacher in golden-red clothes.” thought Mu Qing Ying, sighing. The difference between her and Mu Lin Xue was widening.
The members of the Mu Clan didn’t know what to think. They didn’t dare face Mu Lin Xue anymore.
