Chapter 142: Chapter 126: Favorite Son

’Golden Transformation’ and ’Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root,’ these two rare and powerful gifted skills appeared, leaving people in awe of Yun Kai’s talent.

The appearance of either of these gifted skills would be enough to astonish, let alone both appearing simultaneously on one person, driving people to madness.

After a moment of silence, shouts and screams swept through the Martial Arts Arena like a storm.

“Yun Kai!”

“Emperor Kai!”

“Emperor Kai!”

At this moment, the spectators unleashed their bottled-up excitement and thrill.

A pair of hot gazes…..

Faces flushed red from shouting so frantically…..

Not only ordinary spectators, even some martial artists were no exception.

Infected by these emotions, even the mentors on the platform, who had experienced dozens of throne challenge tournaments, felt a bit of their blood boiling.

“It’s been a long time since I felt this way….”

“Not really, every Battle of Glory is like this, it’s just been a long time since such an extraordinary genius appeared!”

The mentors chuckled as they spoke.

Their response to the on-site audience’s crazy and somewhat out-of-control behavior was not of surprise, but rather they were used to it.

In the era of great cultivation, the strong enjoyed privileges, and martial artists were respected and envied.

And the status of Demon Spirit Masters surpassed martial artists, and the geniuses capable of refining top-level demon spirits were recognized as the darlings of the era.

“Old Huang….”

A middle-aged female tutor, watching the frenzy unfold, murmured a name, her eyes slightly complex.

In the age of spiritual revival, facing the rampage of demon beasts, humans once became stray dogs and food.

Even harnessing the strength of the whole nation, the government spent decades building twelve Guardian Divine Artifacts, allowing people to go to work, marry, and have children in twelve base cities, without fearing for their lives every day.

Everything seemed no different!

But every once in a while, large-scale demon beast attacks on cities would occur.

The emergence of the Otherworld, the threat of demon beasts, and the increasingly frequent appearances of Space Gates…..

Though the government deliberately controlled the news, any posts and discussions about this on the internet were quickly deleted, everyone tacitly understood they were actually not safe.

Once outside the Guardian Divine Artifacts, they were still prey for demon beasts.

End times theories appeared every once in a while.

Organizations claiming to herald the end times occasionally caused some unrest and panic.

Perhaps one day…..

In such uneasy emotions, people seemed to live peacefully, yet the worries in their hearts could not be vented, forcing them only to divert their attention.

And their focus shifted to the Battle of Glory.

The importance of the Battle of Glory to the nation was self-evident, its ranking determined territory allocation in the Otherworld, national discourse, resource distribution….

To people, the Battle of Glory was not just the largest national event, but also their way to temporarily forget worries and fears.

To them, it was a mental anchor.

Only when humans are strong can they have a chance to change human fate.

An extraordinary genius might become a savior!

Therefore, what could be more thrilling than witnessing the rise of an extraordinary genius firsthand.

This holds true for both ordinary people and martial artists alike.

“Hey, Dad, can you hear it? The screams, I’m telling you, Yun Kai just performed Golden Transformation and Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root….”

“Bro, are you watching the live broadcast right now? Speak louder, I can’t hear, you’re not at the scene, I’m telling you, at that moment, I shivered all over, almost pissed myself…”

Many felt that just cheering wasn’t enough, and couldn’t wait to take out their phones to share their excitement, enjoying the envy of those who didn’t witness the event live.

In the Martial Arts Arena.

Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root pierced through and eliminated more than ten people in an instant, making no one dare approach Yun Kai.

Yun Kai’s battle seemed to have ended, but the cheers continued. At this moment, with his entire body metallic, glowing with a golden light, Yun Kai was recognized as the undisputed king of the throne challenge tournament, unmatched by anyone.

“It’s a pity, such a genius cannot be recruited!”

In mid-air, many strong figures with fierce auras flapped their wings, their tones somewhat envious. Their time was precious. Today’s visit wasn’t just to watch a throne challenge, the main goal was to scout and recruit talent.

For freshmen without family backing, the throne challenge tournament was an excellent opportunity to showcase themselves. If they performed well, they could be noticed by companies or factions, sign contracts, and have the company provide cultivation resources. Once they graduated, they’d work for that company, a mutually beneficial win-win situation.

And Yun Kai was undoubtedly the genius that all factions yearned for.

“A single genius can support an entire family.”

Seeing Yun Kai’s talent, everyone made such a remark. As long as Yun Kai did not fall, the rise of the Yun Family was just around the corner.

Inheriting the extraordinary bloodline, there’s essentially no bottleneck issue. Perhaps decades later, the Yun Family might indeed produce a Martial King.

As for becoming extraordinary, it’s not impossible either!

Thinking of this, many people’s eyes flickered, flapping their wings, they flew in one direction.

“Mr. Yun, I’m Fang Da, the general manager of Zhongyun Group, I heard that the Yun Family mainly trades in….”

“Mr. Yun Yong, I’m Zhang Yuanlin from the Zhang Family, dealing in Pill business, here’s my card, please contact if there’s an opportunity….”

In mid-air, a middle-aged man in a suit was surrounded by many. While flapping translucent cyan wings, he faced the enthusiastic flattery with laughter and elegance, but his gaze remained fixed in Yun Kai’s direction.

“Overnight!”

After everyone had left, a woman who had refined a Flying Demon Spirit sighed beside Yun Yong.

Their group of ten was sent to Guanglin with the main purpose of protecting Yun Kai. As Yun Kai is crucial to the rise of the family, his safety is paramount.

Additionally, the Yun Family also hoped to open up the market in Guanglin.

In recent days, they visited numerous corporations and families. Due to Yun Kai, the other parties were quite courteous, but far from the warmth just witnessed.

As a declining Extraordinary family, the Yun Family’s comprehensive strength held no advantage, not even comparable to some small companies.

In Jiang City, it’s a bit better, as the home base, rooted for years, the name Yun Family still held some influence and connections, but in the unfamiliar base city of Guanglin, if not for Yun Kai, no one would pay attention to them.

As for the families and groups they visited seeking cooperation, there hadn’t been any follow-up, yet overnight, things turned upside down.

Zhang Yuanlin’s rather arrogant attitude yesterday turned slightly humble.

“We can have the family send people over, we need to formally set up in Guanglin, let’s choose the branch location by noon….”

At his subordinate’s sigh, a smile appeared at Yun Yong’s lips.

Life is unpredictable.

Who would have thought a half-beastman despised and mocked by everyone in the family would become the darling making Guanglin people scream and cheer today.

Now, thanks to Yun Kai, the declining Extraordinary family has begun to rise.

“Supervisor Yun, with this opportunity, shouldn’t we have Young Master Yun Kai establish his own faction?”

His own faction?

Hearing this, Yun Yong’s smile disappeared, his brow furrowed.

Long ago, he had this thought, which was also one of the tasks assigned by the clan leader.

If in Red Cloud, Yun Kai established his own faction, the families of the faction members would inevitably have ties with the Yun Family. Such ties could potentially generate billions, even tens of billions in profits, which would be significantly beneficial to the economically strapped Yun Family.

Yun Yong had also discussed this with Yun Kai, but Yun Kai didn’t care much for him as an elder, directly refusing. Yun Kai’s words implied he wouldn’t leave Lin Feng’s team, and as for cooperation, he didn’t refuse, but it depends on Lin Feng’s opinion.

“Lin Feng….”

Yun Yong looked at Lin Feng, his eyes somewhat peculiar.

He didn’t understand why Yun Kai obeyed Lin Feng so much.

As a top scholar of the college entrance exam, Lin Feng’s fame is significant, and his combat talent beyond doubt. As for being able to refine Earth Chart Demon Spirits, he harbored some doubts, even if he did succeed in the future, he didn’t think, with Yun Kai’s presence, that Lin Feng held the qualification to be the boss.

Thinking of this, Yun Yong felt it necessary to have a talk with Lin Feng, to make him retreat in the face of difficulty.
