Chapter 112 Another Assessment
After achieving a minor mastery of the Heavenly Wind Step, Ye Feng continued to dedicate a significant amount of time to cultivating it. This was because the essence of wind was boundless, and Ye Feng had only grasped the surface. He wanted to know just how much he could truly comprehend the essence of wind.

At the same time, Ye Feng did not give up on cultivating the "Power of Gods and Demons". After this period of cultivation, Ye Feng has completed the first level of the "Power of Gods and Demons". Now Ye Feng can instantly unleash 50% more power than usual. Of course, the price is that his own true energy will be greatly consumed.

Before he knew it, Ye Feng had been at Yanluo Sect for three months.

This day marked the monthly Illusion Killing Array assessment for the Yanluo Sect. The results of this Illusion Killing Array assessment were included in the rankings, unlike the usual Illusion Killing Array practice.

Of course, not all disciples are required to participate in this assessment. After all, some people feel that their strength has not improved much and there is no need to waste their time. There are quite a few people participating in the Illusion Killing Formation on the day of the assessment. If you want to train, you might as well train on a regular day. There is no need to join in the fun on this day.

Generally speaking, the number of disciples assessed each month is neither too few nor too many; usually, around fifty disciples participating in the assessment is considered quite normal.

However, the number of disciples present for this Illusion Killing Formation assessment far exceeded this number, with more than 150 disciples attending!

To put this into perspective, the Yanluo Sect only has 254 disciples in total, and the number of disciples present this time accounts for more than half of them. This is a scene that has never happened before.

The elder in charge looked at the disciples in the arena. He knew the real reason why many disciples were here today. It was likely that only a few disciples intended to participate in the assessment. Their real purpose was to see how Ye Feng's Illusion Killing Array assessment went.

Ye Feng will receive a low-grade Earth-level sword if he ranks among the top three in the Illusion Killing Array assessment within three months. This news has already spread like wildfire among the Yanluo Sect disciples thanks to the deliberate promotion by the elders of the Yanluo Sect.

To enter the top three in three months is an extremely demanding requirement. Even with Ye Feng's incredible achievement of ranking ninth before, not everyone believed that he could achieve third place in three months.

However, many people believed that Ye Feng could create a miracle, so they arrived at the Illusion Killing Array early to wait. Ye Feng only had this one chance to get a low-grade sword, and they believed that Ye Feng would not give up easily. After all, a level-earth weapon is a heaven-defying item no matter where you look, and Ye Feng himself was only using a level-mystery weapon.

Just as people were discussing the Illusion Killing Formation, a young man walked through the bamboo forest and arrived in front of the formation. This man was Ye Feng.

Two women, both with striking looks and elegant demeanor, were the first to notice Ye Feng's arrival because they were closest to the bamboo grove.

"Look, little Bai, your brother Ye Feng is here." A slightly mature and composed woman said with a smile to another woman.

"Sister Jiang, you're teasing me again. What do you mean by 'my brother Ye Feng'?" Yan Xiaobai said, but her eyes hadn't left Ye Feng since he appeared.

"Look at you, all lovestruck. Who was it that insisted on dragging me to the Illusion Killing Formation today? Neither of us has improved much lately. Don't tell me you're here for an assessment." Do you think I can't see through your little scheme? Jiang Danxue said, her eyes gesturing towards Ye Feng, whom Yan Xiaobai was looking at.

"I was just curious," Yan Xiaobai said, her face slightly flushed. "I don't like him, I'm just curious if he can make it into the top three."

"Really? If that's the case, then why are you staring at Ye Feng like that?" Jiang Danxue said with a smile.

"Tch, I just wanted to see what this legendary genius Ye Feng looks like," Yan Xiaobai said, turning her head away from Ye Feng. However, the blush on her face hadn't faded; in fact, it seemed to have deepened.

Seeing this, Jiang Danxue knew exactly what Yan Xiaobai was thinking, but she just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Sister Jiang, do you think Ye Feng can make it into the top three in this assessment?" Yan Xiaobai asked curiously.

"Well, it's hard to say," Jiang Danxue replied. "Although Ye Feng reached ninth place in the last assessment, that was probably his limit. Only three months have passed, and the gap between ninth and third place is huge. It's not easy to improve that much in one go."

"From what you're saying, it seems that Sister Jiang thinks Ye Feng can make it into the top three." Yan Xiaobai blinked and said when she heard Jiang Danxue say that it was hard to say, but did not deny the possibility of Ye Feng making it into the top three.

“Yes, I think there’s a lot of hope. Ye Feng gives me a feeling that he can create miracles,” Jiang Danxue replied.

"I actually hope this kid doesn't make it into the top three. He's already in the top ten right after starting out, which is already better than us. If he makes it into the top three, then he'll really be a monster," Yan Xiaobai said, pouting.

"You know the difference between you and others now, don't you? You still don't cultivate properly, all you do is slack off all day," Jiang Danxue said with a smile. Jiang Danxue, Yan Xiaobai, and Wu Lan were the three goddesses that the disciples of Yanluo Sect admired. However, among the three, Wu Lan was the strongest and the coldest, making people afraid to approach her.

On the contrary, Yan Xiaobai, with her lively and mischievous personality, and Jiang Danxue, who was more composed, made the disciples of Yanluo Sect feel more at ease with them. The disciples of Yanluo Sect also privately called the two of them the peerless duo.

However, although Jiang Danxue and Yan Xiaobai are much weaker than Wu Lan, they are still considered very powerful among the disciples of Yanluo Sect. Jiang Danxue, in particular, rose to fifteenth place in the last assessment, while Yan Xiaobai, although slightly behind, still ranked twenty-second.

Both of them possessed six-star talent, which was exceptionally high among the disciples of the Yanluo Sect. They also had formidable strength, and although their families weren't particularly powerful, they were still quite well-off. Therefore, while most of the Yanluo Sect disciples had a favorable impression of these two, they could only keep their distance out of respect, because they felt unworthy of them—a kind of instinctive inferiority complex.

However, there are exceptions.

"Miss Jiang, Miss Yan, it's been a long time. I've really missed you both." At this moment, a man took the initiative to step forward and talk to Jiang Danxue and Yan Xiaobai. His tone was not humble at all, but even carried a sense of superiority.

Yan Xiaobai looked over and saw that this person was Yan Feng, the one she hated most in Yanluo Sect.

"Yan Feng, who asked you to? Get out of my way." Yan Xiaobai said unhappily. Yan Feng's reputation in Yanluo Sect was already bad. In addition, every time he saw them and Wu Lan, he had a lewd and lustful look in his eyes. Although Yan Feng tried his best to hide it, they could still detect it very clearly. Therefore, the three women were very dissatisfied with Yan Feng.

“Miss Yan, there are so many people in this square. I’m afraid others might disturb your peace and quiet, which wouldn’t be good. How about I, Yan, protect you two?” Yan Feng said shamelessly, completely disregarding Yan Xiaobai’s words.

“You…” Every time this happened, Yan Xiaobai would get furious. If it were up to Yan Xiaobai’s personality, she would of course go up and beat Yan Feng up, but unfortunately she was no match for Yan Feng at all.

"Alright, Sister Yan, stop talking." Jiang Danxue pulled Yan Xiaobai's hand, making her lean against her back. She also looked at Yan Feng with displeasure, but she knew it was useless. They had already experienced Yan Feng's shameless nature. Fortunately, this was Yanluo Sect, and there were so many people present, so Yan Feng couldn't do anything reckless.

"It seems that coming out today will be troublesome," Jiang Danxue thought to herself.

At this moment, the other disciples in the square also noticed Ye Feng. Ye Feng is now a prominent figure in the Yanluo Sect. When Ye Feng appeared, many junior brothers and sisters went crazy. Ye Feng looked at the scene and thought it was just like a celebrity meet-and-greet in his previous life.

Similarly, Ye Feng also noticed Yan Feng not far away. Ye Feng glanced at Yan Feng meaningfully. He was thinking that there would be a reward for defeating Yan Feng. Now that he had mastered the "Heavenly Wind Step" and had the "Power of Gods and Demons", Ye Feng's confidence in fighting Yan Feng had greatly increased.

"Look, it's Senior Brother Ye Feng."

"Senior Brother Ye Feng has arrived."

Upon Ye Feng's arrival, the previously quiet square erupted in cheers.

"Go for it, Senior Brother Ye Feng! I believe in you!"

"Senior Brother Ye Feng, I love you."

Hearing the cheers, Ye Feng, who was in the center, felt speechless. In his previous life, he thought those celebrities were so glamorous, but now he realized how painful it was to be famous.

"Haha, Ye Feng, are you confident you can make it into the top three? I wish you all the best." A cheerful voice came from behind, and when he turned around, he saw Elder Zuo Song, who had brought him the assessment reward information that day.

When it came to delivering the reward assessment instructions to Ye Feng, any disciple could have easily been sent. However, Elder Zuo Song made a special trip because he recognized Ye Feng's talent. Although Zuo Song didn't express any particular opinion at the time, he still hoped that Ye Feng could successfully obtain the reward.

Even Zuo Song wasn't very confident that Ye Feng would make it into the top three. Zuo Song was more optimistic that Ye Feng would become an inner disciple. As for the reward, Zuo Song just thought it was worth a try.

Unexpectedly, Ye Feng actually came to the Illusion Killing Array to prepare for the assessment three months later. This shows that Ye Feng at least had this confidence, otherwise why would he come here to embarrass himself?
