War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 3635: The Berserkfication Vein

Apart from the Ten Stars students and Chu Feng Yang, who would be presiding over the battle, the other teachers who had nothing to do in the Ten Stars Pavilion had come as well.

A middle-aged man dressed in a long brown robe, one of the teachers in the Hidden Fog Academy’s Ten Stars Pavilion, asked with a smile, “Teacher Chu, who do you think will win the challenge?”

“Teacher Yuan, you have a rather good relationship with Ding Yan so you must be rooting for him, right?” Chu Feng Yang asked in return.

It was only natural that the teachers had their own favorite students. The teachers did not only favor outstanding students. Some teachers favored personable students like Liu Jin.

“Teacher Chu, do you think Ding Yan will lose?” Teacher Yuan looked at Chu Feng Yang meaningfully upon hearing Chu Feng Yang’s words. He asked, “Do you know something we don’t? Teacher Yun Hui who’s in charge of the Ten Stars assessment is your junior uncle, right?”

“Teacher Yuan, you’re overthinking things,” Chu Feng Yang said as he shook his head and smiled. Clearly, he did not intend to reveal the truth. He said, “I’m not sure if Ding Yan will lose or not. However, for Duan Ling Tian to challenge Ding Yan, Duan Ling Tian must be confident of his victory. There are so many students Duan Ling Tian could challenge but he didn’t even object to fighting Ding Yan when I suggested Ding Yan…”

At this moment, another teacher, who had overheard the conversation, chimed in, “You have a point, Teacher Chu.”

Teacher Yuan scoffed. “They say the young know no fear. This newcomer has no idea who he’s up against. Ding Yan is capable of defeating most of the Ten Stars students occupying the primitive-grade courtyards within ten moves. Although they’re staying in courtyards of the same grade, their strengths vary.”

Clearly, Teacher Yuan did not think Duan Ling Tian was a match for Ding Yan.

Another teacher, an elderly man, nodded. “Teacher Yuan has a point as well… In any case, let’s just watch the battle. We’ll know the results soon enough.”

Another teacher urged Chu Feng Yang, “Teacher Chu, hurry up and announce the start of the battle!”

Since Chu Feng Yang was presiding over the challenge, naturally the battle would only start once he had announced so.

Meanwhile, Ding Yan had grown rather impatient waiting for Chu Feng Yang.

Duan Ling Tian was unaware that the battle would only start once Chu Feng Yang announced it. Since Ding Yan did not attack, he did not attack as well. After all, with his current cultivation base, it would be easy for him to defeat Ding Yan. With that, it would be shameless for him to strike first.

At this moment, Chu Feng Yang said loudly, “The battle begins now!”

Ding Yan’s eyes glinted coldly as he said to Duan Ling Tian in a low voice, “Brat, let’s see why you’re so confident as to challenge me!”

Ding Yan’s red robe began to flutter in the air despite there being no wind.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In the next moment, flames raged around Ding Yan. He looked like a phoenix that had risen from the ash at this moment.

The heatwave swept toward the crowd in just an instant.

Ding Yan had instantly cast a double Fused Profundity.

After all, apart from being a god, one of the requirements to become a Ten Stars student was to comprehend all profundities to the mastery stage and to comprehend a double Fused Profundity. However, he had already comprehended a triple Fused Profundity. Among all the Ten Stars students, he was ranked in the middle; this meant he was stronger than half his peers.

“A triple Fused Profundity. Ding Yan is really terrifying!”

“He surely lives up to his reputation as the strongest Ten Stars student occupying the primitive-grade courtyard. Not only is he skilled in the law of fire, but I heard he also possesses the Berserkfication Vein that can temporarily raise his Divine Energy of a rudimentary god to that of an intermediate god!”

“There are many people in Realms of Gods who possess bloodline power, but they’re rare in Skywind City. Normally, these people would only appear in powerful clans or sects.”

“However, I don’t think Ding Yan came from a prominent clan or sect, right?”

“The bloodline power comes from supreme powerhouses. Ding Yan doesn’t have to come from a powerful force to possess the bloodline power.”

‘Bloodline power?’ Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow when he heard the conversations in his surroundings. He was naturally familiar with bloodline power. Ling Jue Yun, a friend whom he had met in a Devata Realm, a member of the Ling clan in a Realm of Gods possessed a bloodline power as well. During their sparring sessions, Ling Jue Yun had even used his bloodline power.

Depending on how closely related one was to a supreme powerhouse, one would be able to awaken the bloodline power. There were different bloodline powers. Sometimes, one would inherit the same bloodline power in one’s family, but there were rare cases where one could awaken a different bloodline power. Ling Jue Yun had also Duan Ling Tian that direct descendants of the Ling clan all possessed the bloodline power.

‘The Berserkification Vein? How interesting,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his eyes lit up.

At this moment, Ding Yan glared at Duan Ling Tian and coldly said, “Duan Ling Tian! I’ll give you three breaths to prepare yourself before I attack. I don’t want people to say I’m bullying the newcomer!”

“That’s unnecessary.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. “You can attack now. I want the battle to end as soon as possible so Teacher Chu can help me arrange for another challenge.”

Apart from Liu Jin and Chu Feng Yang, everyone thought Duan Ling Tian’s words were preposterous as well/

Teacher Yuan, who clearly favored Ding Yan, said disdainfully, “Teacher Chu, this student whom you think highly of is really arrogant. I hope he’ll be able to back up his words. Otherwise, he’ll become a laughingstock in the Hidden Fog Academy.”

“Well, he’ll just have to suffer the consequences for his words then,” Chu Feng Yang said perfunctorily with a shrug. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s attitude, he was certain Yun Hui was right about Duan Ling Tian being extraordinary.

“Ding Yan is about to attack!”

“The newcomer managed to provoke Ding Yan!”

The group of Ten Stars students exclaimed when they saw Ding Yan preparing to attack.

Flames surged on Ding Yan’s body, looking as though the god of fire had descended to the mortal realm. He no longer spoke. All he wanted to do was teach the newcomer a lesson.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian cocked an eyebrow. He raised his hand and mobilized his Divine Energy that was even more terrifying than Ding Yan’s.

“An intermediate god!”

“Duan Ling Tian is an intermediate god?!”

Everyone present was shocked by this.

Since it was impolite to probe another person with one’s Divine Consciousness, Chu Feng Yang had no idea Duan Ling Tian was an intermediate god. How could he not be shocked as well?

“The newcomer is an intermediate god?!”

“He’s not even 2,800 years old! What a monstrous talent!”

“No wonder he dares to challenge Ding Yan!”

Similar to the others, Ding Yan was also shocked by this discovery. He hastily mobilized his bloodline power, and his Beserkfication Vein boosted his cultivation base from that of a rudimentary god to that of an intermediate god instantly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ding Yan was shrouded by terrifying flames as he continued to charge toward Duan Ling Tian.

“Ding Yan’s not holding back. He plans to defeat Duan Ling Tian with just a strike!”

Since Ding Yan was just a rudimentary god, his comprehension of the law was certainly not as profound as Duan Ling Tian who was an intermediate god. Hence, he planned to defeat Duan Ling Tian by using his bloodline power before Duan Ling Tian had a chance to counterattack..
