I, the Chaotic Being, began my path to enlightenment in a brothel!

"Are you betting on Lin Feng to take first place?" Xiao Beichen asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Wang Dongsheng scoffed, his tone full of disdain: "Sect Leader Xiao, please don't joke. There are quite a few Spirit Sea Realm disciples in Rocky Mountain, how could it be a Foundation Establishment Realm disciple who wins the championship?"

"So you're absolutely certain Lin Feng can't do it?"

Xiao Beichen's gaze fell directly on Wang Dongsheng, with a hint of scrutiny.

"good!"

Wang Dongsheng smiled faintly, his expression resolute.

"snort!"

Xiao Beichen seemed to be provoked and shouted in a deep voice, "Since Sect Leader Wang underestimates my sect's disciples so much, I'll take your bet!"

"Like Sect Leader Li, you and I will bet on a Hong-rank spiritual artifact."

"good!"

Without a second thought, Wang Dongsheng readily agreed.

"Sect leaders, is anyone else willing to place a bet?"

"No matter who it is, if they bet Lin Feng doesn't get first place, our sect will accept the consequences!"

Xiao Beichen's eyes widened, his voice booming with pride: "We disciples of the Hundred Refinements Sect are not to be underestimated!"

Elder Qi, who was standing to the side, was already dumbfounded.

Has the sect leader gone mad?

He wasn't betting on Zhang Lingfeng, but on Lin Feng!

If we bet on Zhang Lingfeng to win, there's still a sliver of a chance.

But Lin Feng only has the Foundation Establishment cultivation level. How can he stand out among all the monstrous talents?

Could it be that the sect leader has so many magical artifacts that his storage ring can't hold them all?

"Then why don't you just give me two for free! Why let outsiders benefit from this?" Elder Qi muttered to himself.

Little did they know, Xiao Beichen had already secretly investigated Lin Feng's background.

The intelligence he gathered stirred his emotions for several days before he could finally calm down.

Everyone present seriously underestimated Lin Feng; this young man was far more complex than he appeared.

The sect leaders of Red Maple Pavilion, Cloud Sword Manor, and Free and Unfettered Academy all glanced at Xiao Beichen with surprise.

The group wondered to themselves, "Could this guy have taken the wrong pill and damaged his brain?"

He actually thinks so highly of a new disciple?

"Hehe! Since Sect Leader Xiao is so generous and wants to give away his wealth, we will reluctantly accept it."

"I bet Lin Feng won't get first place, but he'll get a Hong-rank spiritual weapon!"

"I also bet on Lin Feng and failed, but I got a Hong-rank spiritual artifact!"

"If Lin Feng wins, I will not only present him with a Hong-grade spiritual artifact, but I will also eat this entire mountain in front of everyone!"

Finally, Zhou Haichuan of Xiaoyao Academy spoke boldly, his tone full of confidence.

In their view, this Hong-rank spiritual artifact was practically handed to them for free, so why wouldn't they accept it?

Elder Qi, standing to the side, had already turned as green as a ghost.

All five sect leaders placed bets, and if their sect leader lost, they would have to bring out five Hong-grade spiritual artifacts to compensate for the bet.

Even though the Hundred Refinements Sect is one of the six major sects, giving up so many Hong-grade spiritual artifacts at once will still cause it to suffer some losses.

"Sect Master, please reconsider your actions!"

Elder Qi couldn't help but send a telepathic message to dissuade him, his tone full of anxiety.

Xiao Beichen glanced at Elder Qi and said in a low voice, "Go and incite the elders of the five sects to place bets. If anyone places a bet, all the spiritual artifacts they win are yours."

Elder Qi refused without hesitation: "Sect Master, I have accumulated this fortune with great difficulty, and I dare not squander it like this!"

"You old codger, you're such a blockhead!"

Xiao Beichen said with exasperation, "Listen to me, bet on Lin Feng to win, it'll definitely make you a fortune!"

Elder Qi stood there, completely bewildered.

He didn't understand why the sect leader had such great confidence in Lin Feng.

But the sect leader has never been a benevolent person. Could it be that Lin Feng really has the strength to win the championship?

After hesitating for a moment, Elder Qi finally got up and went to incite the five sect elders to place their bets.

Upon hearing about this sure-fire way to make money, the five elders all placed their bets.

In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the total amount wagered had already reached ten Desolate-grade spiritual artifacts.

If Lin Feng takes first place, Elder Qi will earn ten Desolate-grade spiritual artifacts.

Conversely, he would have to pay ten desolate-grade spiritual artifacts as compensation, exhausting his entire fortune.

"Young Lin, I've staked everything on you."

"If you bankrupt me, I'll make things difficult for you when we return to the sect!"

Elder Qi felt uneasy and muttered to himself.

After the bet was placed, everyone's attention once again focused on the Rocky Mountains.

Disciples were continuously being teleported out of the Rocky Mountains.

Most of these disciples were eliminated by the mountain spirit beasts, and they were all in a sorry state.

Just then, a figure flew out from mid-air, staggering a few steps when it landed.

The man's face was sinister, his eyes filled with resentment, as he roared to the sky, "Lin Feng! I'm not finished with you!"

Once he regained his footing, he realized that he was surrounded by deathly silence, with countless eyes staring intently at him.

"They're disciples of the Black Sun Sect!"

Someone frowned slightly and immediately recognized the other person's identity.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In a short while, several more figures were sent out of the Rocky Mountains.

These disciples were either distraught or furious, all cursing Lin Feng.

"Damn Lin Feng! He's been hiding his strength all this time, truly despicable and shameless!"

Upon seeing this, the elders of the Black Sun Sect frowned and were about to step forward to ask questions.

Another figure was thrown violently out of the Rocky Mountains like a tattered sack.

Everyone stared intently, and their expressions all changed.

It was Chu Yan!

Chu Yan was no ordinary disciple, but one of the prodigies of the Black Sun Sect, yet he was also eliminated?

At this moment, Chu Yan was covered in blood, his aura was extremely weak, and there was still a lingering fear in his eyes.

Upon seeing the Black Sun Sect elders, he immediately stepped forward and said with grief and indignation, "Elders, Lin Feng is utterly shameless!"

"I suspect he used some unknown methods; otherwise, how could a mere new disciple possess the combat strength of the Spirit Sea Realm?"

The entire room fell into a deathly silence; everyone was shocked by the news.

The faces of the Black Sun Sect members were as black as ink, extremely ugly.

They have discovered that all the disciples who were eliminated this time were defeated by Lin Feng.

But Lin Feng is clearly only at the Foundation Establishment stage, so how could he possess such astonishing combat power?

Even Chu Yan, one of the top ten prodigies, is no match for him.

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

The azure barrier of the Rocky Mountains trembled even more violently.

Disciples were constantly being teleported out of the secret realm, most of them covered in blood and in a sorry state.

The elders were secretly alarmed when they saw the injuries of their disciples.

Clearly, the fighting in the Rocky Mountains has become far more intense than anyone imagined.

What shocked everyone even more was that nearly 70% of the eliminated disciples were personally sent out by Lin Feng.

This even includes several prodigies from the Myriad Beasts Sect, who are rumored to control more than a dozen Spirit Sea Realm beast pets.

"Are you sure it was all Lin Feng's doing?"

What exactly happened inside the Rocky Mountains?

"How could Lin Feng have such abilities? Nonsense, this must be utter nonsense!"

The elders of the five sects could no longer remain calm and exclaimed in shock.

A sense of unease welled up in Li Henian's heart.

He turned to look at Xiao Beichen and asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Zong, what exactly is going on with Lin Feng?"

"Could it be that he took a berserk pill, temporarily boosting his combat power?"

Xiao Beichen was in high spirits, a slight smile playing on his lips. He said calmly, "In trials, any means are acceptable. Even if he took the Berserk Pill, it wouldn't count as cheating, would it?"

"It's not cheating, but... but..."

Li Henian frowned, his mind a jumble of thoughts, unsure of what to say.

The other sect leaders also had a strange look in their eyes, and they became secretly on guard.

Just then, a silver gleam suddenly flashed out from the Rocky Mountain barrier.

Everyone instinctively looked up, and upon seeing the figure clearly, gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.

"Zhang Lingfeng!"

"It's Zhang Lingfeng, the number one prodigy of the Hundred Refinements Sect's inner sect!"

"Hahaha!"

Wang Dongsheng snapped out of his daze, gave a cold laugh, and spoke with a tone full of sarcasm.

"If Zhang Lingfeng were in the mountains, he could lend Lin Feng a hand."

"But now that he's been eliminated, Lin Feng is all alone, and ultimately, he can't carry the load alone."

Li Henian echoed with a forced smile, "No matter how many Hidden Dragon Tokens Lin Feng collects in the mountains, he must hand them all over to Cheng Xu of our sect as soon as he encounters him."

Among all the sect leaders, Zhou Haichuan appeared the most composed, and slowly said, "We did underestimate this boy's abilities, but even Zhang Lingfeng was eliminated, so Lin Feng won't last long either."

"Everyone can rest assured, final victory still belongs to us!"

Upon hearing this, the sect leaders and elders of the five sects all wore cold smiles and turned their gazes back to the Rocky Mountains.

Upon seeing this, Elder Qi quickly flew forward and caught Zhang Lingfeng steadily, then eagerly inquired about the battle situation in the mountains.

Meanwhile, the battle in front of the Cangxuan Ancient Palace was still raging!
