Chapter 74: Chapter 72: The Cautious Feng Xinglie

“Has Feng Xinglie come to probe for your information these past few days?” Tang Ruobing asked.

Although she had already given Ye Mingqiu the Divine Concealment Bracelet, which could resist detection effects, she was still worried that something unexpected might happen.

After all, once Feng Xinglie discovered Ye Mingqiu’s hidden attributes, he would instinctively suspect that this guy had some hidden abilities and might have some plans, thus making corresponding arrangements.

This was very unfavorable for her.

“No, he hasn’t even looked for me,” Ye Mingqiu shook his head and replied.

“Hmm.”

Tang Ruobing sighed in relief.

She knew Ye Mingqiu had extremely strong intuition, and if he were probed, he would definitely sense it. If he said that Feng Xinglie hadn’t come to investigate, then he really hadn’t come.

This situation was quite normal when viewed from Feng Xinglie’s perspective.

You are an Level 8 Mage, and your teammates are a group of Level 1, 2, and 3 people; in team battles, the enemies you face also have a similar setup. In this situation, would you pay attention to a Level 1 newly made Spiritualist support?

Chances are you wouldn’t. After all, the level gap is too large. Instead of focusing on a Level 1 support, you might as well pay more attention to the opposing Level 8 Mage, since a Level 1 support cannot have much impact on the battle, not even if they were Lord Level.

“I feel a bit excited just thinking about the upcoming battle,” Lin Feng’s eyes shone brightly, so excited he could hardly contain himself.

His profession was a Mad Swordsman, Lord Level. The advantage was high stats, but the disadvantage was that he needed to quickly burn life to gain significant stat boosts, and life must continually be burned, so in most situations, he dared not fight at full strength.

But as long as there’s the Immortal Aura, he can exhibit Hero Level strength with the Mad Swordsman, and he’s not afraid at all when facing a Hero Level enemy warrior, in fact, he’s even very excited.

Can I, a Lord Level Mad Swordsman, defeat a same-level Hero Level warrior?

Can I do it?

Absolutely! It can be done with ease!!

Not just Lin Feng in the Mad Swordsman profession, but also Lei Peng and Ke Fanxing on the other side began to rub their hands eagerly. Although the upcoming battle might be difficult, they had hope that they could defeat the opponent! Moreover, the battle was centered around them!

Feng Xinglie would never dream that Tang Ruobing would use such a strategy, forcefully exchanging their own Magic System ace for the opposing Magic System ace for 30 seconds. If they couldn’t secure victory within those 30 seconds, they would face a crushing defeat.

If he were in that position, he absolutely wouldn’t place hope on a group of lower-level teammates. More importantly… Tang Ruobing’s magic was more suited to team battles, she at least had a 40% chance to win, even Feng Xinglie wouldn’t dare to underestimate her.

Why would she, who already had a 40% chance of victory, place the hope of winning in the hands of her teammates? Wouldn’t betting on her chance to win be higher?

In the enemy’s preparation room

“Be careful, Tang Ruobing actively hid information about Ye Mingqiu, which means he definitely has some powerful trump card,”

“I am an Level 8 Mage and Ye Mingqiu has only recently become a Spiritualist and is still Level 1. His trump card will definitely not be effective against me, if nothing unexpected happens, it’s specifically targeted at you, so you must be careful.” Feng Xinglie looked at his teammates in the room, who were relaxed and cheerful, and spoke with a stern expression.

“No problem, I have effect resistance, most control effects will be greatly weakened, and there’s a level gap between us. His trump card might not have a substantial effect on me,” the tall tank said in a deep voice.

“Exactly, I guess she’s hiding information about Ye Mingqiu for future use rather than using his trump card in this battle. After all, his level is still too low. I guess he won’t even use it.” The lightly armed warrior in leather armor laughed lightly.

His profession was a Hero Level Dragon Slayer Knight, and his level was 3. When facing a Level 1 support, and likely a Lord Level support, he certainly had confidence.

“Stay vigilant; there’s no evidence to prove that Ye Mingqiu’s profession is Lord Level. What if he’s a Hero Level profession? Always be alert, and have respect for the unknown. Only then can we keep progressing and winning,” Feng Xinglie said, crossing his hands in front of him, with utmost seriousness.

Being number one on the Forbes Rankings, Feng Xinglie wasn’t an arrogant fool; though he appeared aloof, he always kept a close eye on the opponent’s information in the shadows.

The intelligence indicated the relationship between Tang Ruobing and Ye Mingqiu was exceptionally close. Ye Mingqiu would go to Tang Ruobing’s exclusive training room every day, and they didn’t know what he did there, only that he would take a long time to come out each time, and always looked extremely exhausted, as if something had drained a significant amount of his energy.

Upon seeing the intelligence, Feng Xinglie was furious; he wanted valuable intelligence, not to hear those bums making intentional or unintentional indecent rumors.

Therefore, he put on an incredibly serious attitude, harshly criticized those intelligence personnel, and personally spent three days in ambush near Tang Ruobing’s exclusive training room, collecting intelligence. He discovered… Ye Mingqiu’s behavior was exactly as described in the intelligence!

Damn! This is really true, huh?

A massive shock struck Feng Xinglie’s heart; suddenly, he recalled the long-rumored foster rumor in class and began questioning its authenticity.

Could it be true also?

Outrageous!

But even so, the prudently stable Feng Xinglie wanted to ensure everything was as thorough as possible, absolutely not considering Tang Ruobing as someone who would… for that purpose… do such things… uh…

Reliable! Must be stable!

Although logic and intelligence analysis had made him somewhat believe it, Feng Xinglie was precisely such a prudent man. That was the very seriousness and conscientiousness of being number one on the Forbes Rankings; even if there was a slight possibility it was false, he would view the opponent as a strategic adversary under sinister plotting.

Think of the worst case, perhaps Tang Ruobing was bringing Ye Mingqiu to study magic? Maybe Ye Mingqiu was a magic genius? Maybe he’s very powerful but simply obscured within the support system because he’s not from the Magic System? It’s possible, right? Completely possible, right?

After all, they spend so much time together every day. Disregarding rumors and facts, it’s entirely possible they were exchanging magical insights.

Ensure maximal stability!

“Phew~”

Feng Xinglie exhaled deeply, seriously gazing at the people in the preparation room, and said, “Note that in the coming battle, Ye Mingqiu might use magic, so it’s best to prepare yourselves mentally in advance.”

But others continued with their nonchalant attitudes, not taking his words seriously, letting them go in one ear and out the other. After all, that possibility was extremely slim.

They all knew, Feng Xinglie was a man excessively careful and rigorous, and precisely because of this caution, he had achieved accomplishments in magic learning and spirit realm exploration beyond ordinary imagination.

How could a man at the top be a commoner?
