Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 12: Chapter 9: Juxing Club

Juxing Club, a club that has consistently ranked in the top five of Huaxia’s Glory Battle for years, and has been firmly in the top three, is a powerhouse in the Glory Alliance!

Ju Xing, true to its name, aims to gather all the top stars of the Glory Alliance.

Joining this club promises a boundless future.

This is why Gao Hai is so excited.

Even though he knows the invitation is not for him, he can’t help but feel excited.

After all, Song of Solomon is a childhood friend who grew up with him, and if she can join the Juxing Club, it would be a matter of pride for him, making others think twice before messing with him.

Once a person achieves success, their friends and family benefit as well. If Song of Solomon joins the Juxing Club, Gao Hai could also gain some benefits, like some Combat Skills. The Combat Skills taught by the Juxing Club are definitely not ordinary.

”Juxing Club?”

Wrapped in sudden happiness, Song of Solomon also seems very excited, her body trembling slightly, as if she can’t quite believe it.

However, despite this, the girl remains calm. She is clearly aware of the reputation of the Juxing Club, and she asks with some doubt: ”Why choose me?”

This year, she is only sixteen years old, just a Sixth Rank Body Cultivator. Her strength is considered above average among her peers, but not exceptional, let alone genius.

At Jiangxin First Middle School, her grades are not even in the top thousand.

If it weren’t for her pretty looks, she would just be an ordinary girl at school.

Although she refined an Eighth Grade Enchanting Butterfly today, it will take at least three years for the demon spirit to truly mature, meaning even if she competes in the National College Glory Battle, it would be three years later. Previously, many clubs and martial arts halls noticed her potential and intended to sign long-term agreements to nurture her.

As one of the top ten clubs, the Juxing Club, a powerhouse in the Glory Alliance, they nurture top-level geniuses or players who can compete in the Glory Battle directly, yet she doesn’t seem qualified.

The person in charge of the Juxing Club is a lady who looks about thirty-something, dressed in a purple-red Martial Artist’s Uniform, with a slender and well-proportioned figure, a silver-white long sword at her waist, exuding a somewhat heroic impression.

Seeing Song of Solomon’s doubt, Zhang Ling smiled slightly: ”You won’t be joining the Juxing Team, but the Blue Sea Team, which is one of the top ten reserve teams. The Blue Sea Team has had a good performance these years, reaching the top seven in the National Youth Glory Battle last year. The team currently lacks a Spirit Series Demon Spirit Master, and I think the Enchanting Butterfly is very suitable.”

”I see.”

Song of Solomon nodded, although it’s one of the top ten reserve teams, she wasn’t disappointed. On the contrary, she felt this was appropriate; she wouldn’t dare to believe it if it were the Juxing Team.

The Juxing Team comprises Demon Fiends, nearly all refining Ninth Grade demon spirits or Earth Chart demon spirits. Even the substitutes aren’t within her reach.

Even joining the reserve team was beyond Song of Solomon’s expectations.

Those who sign with Ju Xing must have their own excellence besides refining advanced demon spirits, whether in exceptional Martial Arts talent, rich combat experience, or perfect fusion with demon spirits, none of which she could compare to.

While Song of Solomon was immersed in her surprise, an image flashed through Lin Feng’s mind.

”Enchanting Butterfly, Enchanting Demoness?”

At this moment, Lin Feng suddenly recalled some things.

Although demon spirits are divided into grades, it doesn’t mean low-tier demon spirits have no chance to evolve into high-tier demon spirits, it’s just that this kind of evolution is extremely difficult.

To evolve, one needs not only resources to nurture but more importantly, knowledge of the evolution route. Blindly guessing might waste the demon spirit, reversing its strength or even its grade; such things aren’t impossible and happen often.

The biggest benefit of joining a club is having a dedicated team design and plan the growth direction of the demon spirit based on one’s strength and characteristics, matching demon spirit skills, even the progression route.

In the memory, when Lin Feng was in his junior year of college, he saw the appearance of the Enchanting Demoness at the Collegiate Glory Battle.

The Ninth Grade Enchanting Demoness was evolved from the Eighth Grade Enchanting Butterfly.

This was not because Lin Feng had a good memory, but because this news was too sensational.

This news even ranked 17th on the national news hot search that year.

The reason for such a sensation was not because the Enchanting Demoness was incredibly rare, but because the person who refined it was named Han Tian.

Yes, you guessed it right, it was a man.

A man refined the Enchanting Butterfly and even evolved it into the Enchanting Demoness, and Han Tian himself was very handsome, even somewhat effeminate. That stunning scene of demon possession still makes Lin Feng feel quite amused upon reflection.

Lin Feng clearly remembers that the team Han Tian belonged to was the Blue Sea Team.

Although the Blue Sea Team didn’t make it into the top three at that time, stopping at fourth place, Han Tian himself became famous, with endorsement deals coming one after another, his income even surpassing the captain of the Black Demon Team who won the First Place in the Collegiate Glory Battle.

”Three years later?” Lin Feng murmured to himself.

While the growth of demon spirits is relatively easy, advancement is very difficult, especially for higher-grade demon spirits.

To evolve the Enchanting Butterfly into the Enchanting Demoness in three years is definitely not easy, and this also indicates that the route and direction of this stage, even if not completely mastered, is almost known.

Since it’s certain that someone has mastered the evolution route from Enchanting Butterfly to Enchanting Demoness, if Song of Solomon can find out and prepare, the contract terms would naturally be different.

Refining Eighth Grade demon spirits and refining Ninth Grade demon spirits may only differ by one grade in terms of demon spirit grades, but the treatment differs vastly.

It could even be several times or even ten times the difference!

Having grown up together, for Lin Feng, even if they eventually part ways, he really doesn’t harbear hate.

If he can help her, Lin Feng wouldn’t refuse, so he decided to give her a heads up.

”Song of Solomon, go home and discuss with your family, and listen to their opinions.”

Just as Song of Solomon was about to agree, Lin Feng chimed in.

”Huh?”

Hearing this, Song of Solomon turned to look at Lin Feng, her face showing confusion, not quite understanding what Lin Feng meant.

Such a good opportunity, what’s there to discuss?

Her parents are both ordinary workers, with limited insight, unable to offer valuable advice.

But understanding Lin Feng, Song of Solomon knew that although he didn’t become a Demon Spirit Master, even if he was somewhat disappointed, he wouldn’t be jealous or try to ruin her opportunity. Moreover, Lin Feng is prudent, facing someone as significant as the head of the Juxing Club, he wouldn’t speak without reason. Since he spoke up, he must have his reasons, so she waited for Lin Feng’s response.

At this moment, Zhang Ling also glanced at Lin Feng, her brows slightly furrowed, her gaze calm yet disdainful, with a barely noticeable hint of threat.

The Juxing Club as a powerhouse has a team of over a thousand professionals responsible for demon spirit research.

Just as Lin Feng speculated, the club has already grasped the evolution route of the Enchanting Butterfly, although temporarily unaware of the power and talent abilities once it evolves, there is speculation that a successfully evolved Enchanting Butterfly could rival Earth Chart demon spirits.

It is precisely because of this that she decided to recruit Song of Solomon.

For Zhang Ling, discovering Song of Solomon and signing her with a non-large contract saved significant costs; she will definitely be credited. Going back to the headquarters in Shangjing, besides being rewarded with substantial bonuses, she might even be promoted a level.

Since Lin Feng ranked before Song of Solomon, Zhang Ling naturally knows Lin Feng hasn’t refined a demon spirit, and his Seventh Rank as a Body Cultivator does not make him a Martial Arts genius.

As the person in charge of the Juxing Club in Jiang City this time, Lin Feng naturally didn’t qualify to be taken seriously.

Therefore, even though Lin Feng interjected, she had no intention of responding.

She believes in the reputation of the Juxing Club, no one would refuse.

”Nothing, if you trust me, don’t rush to make a decision.” Lin Feng didn’t explain, as this matter can’t be explained in front of everyone.

”Decide quickly, I am heading back to Shangjing today; there’s no time to wait for your response.”

Seeing Song of Solomon hesitating, Zhang Ling deliberately showed some impatience. She glanced at her watch, then waited for Song of Solomon’s answer.

Although she is confident in the club, facing competition from various surrounding clubs, she is somewhat anxious.

”I’m willing.”

Seeing Zhang Ling’s slightly furrowed brows, seemingly dissatisfied, Song of Solomon was worried about changes, so she made a decision.

Song of Solomon nodded in agreement, without even listening to the promised conditions.

Even though she refined the Enchanting Butterfly, with the reputation of the Juxing Club as a powerhouse, she didn’t feel qualified to negotiate terms.

Joining the Blue Sea Team, the contract surely won’t be bad; there’s a standard for the type of contract based on one’s talent and strength. Being part of it is a kind of glory in itself; even if the contract expires later, joining other clubs or martial halls would be considered qualification.

”Alright, here’s a B-level contract.”

Hearing Song of Solomon agree, Zhang Ling breathed a sigh of relief inside, though her expression remained unchanged. She pulled out a contract from her backpack and handed it to Song of Solomon.

”Alas...”

Lin Feng shook his head but said no more.

Zhang Ling’s urgency evidently confirmed his speculation, but Song of Solomon hadn’t realized this.

Song of Solomon looked at Lin Feng once more, not understanding why he sighed, but having made her decision, she didn’t intend to ask again.
