The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

“Sect Master Ye, the City Lord’s Mansion is currently offering a reward of one hundred Spirit Stones for the leader of Heixuan Gate! So, there’s no point in hiding anything,” Zhou Jiacai said with an “I understand you” expression.

“No, I really am not the mysterious person,” Ye Feng insisted, dead set against admitting it.

In Ye Feng’s view, once this matter got out, even if he wasn’t afraid, it could bring danger to the Misty Sect; it was better to keep a low profile.

“Sect Master Ye wants to keep a low profile, I understand,” Xin Guangxuan said with a smile.

Zhou Jiacai grinned, “Actually, I can understand too. After all, as the saying goes, ‘a man fears getting famous just like a pig fears getting fat’. By the way, Sect Master Ye, please board the flying vessel.”

In the center of Whitefloat City.

A mysterious courtyard, enwalled by ten-meter-high walls and stretching six hundred meters in length and five hundred meters in width, lay there.

This place was the grand camp of the Black Armored Guard.

All the Black Armored Guards in Whitefloat City trained here, and every day, the sounds of shouting and killing that resonated loudly and clearly could be heard by passersby.

In front of a Martial Arts Ground that was approximately a hundred meters long and wide.

Ye Feng, Zhou Jiacai, and Xin Guangxuan stood on a high platform, looking down at the three hundred plus Black Armored Guards below.

This was just a part of the Black Armored Guard; the rest were stationed in the city’s four major districts—east, south, west, north—totaling over a thousand when combined.

“This is Sect Master Ye Feng of the Misty Sect, responsible for guiding your cultivation in spells,” Zhou Jiacai announced loudly, his voice amplified by spiritual energy, even more effective than a loudspeaker.

However, some of the Qi Refinement level seven squad leaders of the Black Armored Guard showed impatience, and some even openly mocked him.

“Pfft, what kind of joke is this!”

“I heard the Misty Sect is nothing but a Lower Rank Sect and their Sect Master is merely a mortal, what good can he do?”

“Exactly, the Black Armored Guard camp is no place for him. Just go home and hug your wife, hahaha!”

Hearing these mocking voices, Ye Feng had a strange look on his face.

Zhou Jiacai leaned in and whispered to Ye Feng:

“Sect Master Ye, these are the stooges I told you about before. How about it, their acting is quite up to the standard, right?”

Ye Feng nodded, “Indeed, not bad.”

On the way here, Zhou Jiacai had already told Ye Feng that he would select a few squad leaders from the Black Armored Guard in advance to act as stooges to set the mood.

Despite being prepared, Ye Feng was still startled by the acting skills of these Black Armored Guard squad leaders.

Their eyes bulging with anger, they spat their words with force as if they bore a grudge against him.

But truth be told, their acting was quite good indeed.

“Sect Master Ye, it’s time for your performance,” Xin Guangxuan said, winking at Ye Feng, which gave him goosebumps—this guy seemed so solemn, but turned out to be rather cheeky inside.

With that in mind, Ye Feng stepped forward and said aloud, “Even though I am but a mortal, it doesn’t mean I cannot teach you.”

“Pfft, I don’t buy it!”

“Sect Master Ye better hurry home and hug your wife.”

“If you don’t have a wife, we can serve as your father-in-law.”

“Hahaha!”

The jeering continued.

The other Black Armored Guards were also stirred up a bit, joining in the laughter, thinking Ye Feng was there for comic relief.

Or perhaps he had been invited by Deputy Commander Zhou Jiacai to serve as a mascot.

“Silence! How dare you speak to Sect Master Ye like that? He is a capable man, and you should not be so presumptuous!” Zhou Jiacai added fuel to the fire at the right moment.

“Deputy Commander, we respect you, but that doesn’t mean we need a mortal to teach us,” one of the Qi Refinement level seven squad leaders, tasked with setting the mood, said with a grave voice.

“Yes, please teach us yourself, Deputy Commander!”

“I want to learn the ‘Ground Slash’!”

The ordinary soldiers among the Black Armored Guard began to chime in as well.

“Since the Deputy Commander says Sect Master Ye is capable, then dare you compete with us?” A squad leader, seeing the opportunity was ripe, stepped forward and challenged.

“Why not!”

Ye Feng leaped down from the five-meter-high platform. The moment he landed, the floor tiles under his feet shattered, sending a sweeping breath outward.

“Oops!”

The squad leaders responsible for acting immediately clutched their chests and flew backwards, falling to the ground while continuously saying things like “Sect Master Ye is so strong.”

“Uh…” Ye Feng twitched the corner of his mouth.

They’d been acting so well just a moment ago; now why had they become so exaggerated!

Still, Ye Feng stepped forward, pointing at the Black Armored Guards present and said, “What’s wrong, you’re not convinced?”

“You ambushed us just now, it doesn’t count!” an actor immediately retorted.

“That’s right, we’re not convinced!”

Other Black Armored Guards also shouted in unison.

Those recruited into the Black Armored Guards were all real men with big guts, and immediately, dozens of them surrounded Ye Feng, glaring at him.

“How will you be convinced?” Ye Feng asked.

“Fight until we’re convinced!” an actor shouted.

Upon hearing these words, the other Black Armored Guards were immediately confused. Fight until convinced? No, I didn’t say that, the squad leader did!

Ye Feng didn’t care about that; he laughed out loud and said, “Fine, I’ll beat all of you!”

With that, Ye Feng sent a palm strike in the air towards the actor.

“Ah!”

Before getting hit, that actor was already flying backwards, quickly took out a tomato, bit into it, and squeezed out a few strands of “blood.”

“The squad leader is injured.”

“That’s clearly tomato juice… mmph!” Anyone who knew the truth was immediately muzzled.

“Everyone together, teach this guy a lesson.” An actor shouted loudly, with an intimidating aura.

Other Black Armored Guards, not knowing the truth, saw their squad leader injured and surrounded Ye Feng in a three-layer deep ring.

However, they were no match for Ye Feng, each being sent flying with a punch.

On the high platform.

Xin Guangxuan and Zhou Jiacai watched Ye Feng sweeping the field, punching Black Armored Guards with no pressure, and couldn’t help but click their tongues in wonder.

“Truly worthy of being the chosen one, he is indeed impressive.”

Xin Guangxuan sighed, noticing more and more Black Armored Guards rushing towards Ye Feng, only to be quickly sent flying.

Before long, all three hundred Black Armored Guards were laying on the ground, moaning continuously.

“Don’t worry, I’ve been quite measured with my blows; they’ll be fine after lying down for a while.” Ye Feng jumped onto the high platform and said to Zhou Jiacai.

“Sect Master Ye, how did the actors I arranged perform?” Zhou Jiacai asked, as if seeking credit.

Ye Feng glanced around and noticed the several Qi Refinement Stage Seven squad leaders comfortably eating tomatoes in the corner.

Seeing Zhou Jiacai and Ye Feng looking over, the squad leaders quickly stuffed the tomatoes into their mouths and lay on the ground, rolling their eyes back, pretending to be dead.

Ye Feng looked on, bemused.

Zhou Jiacai wore an awkward smile, “After all, they’re not professionally trained actors, so the acting might be a bit exaggerated. I hope Sect Master Ye can forgive us.”

Ye Feng was about to say something, but then noticed that the Sect Prestige Value had risen from the previous two hundred to nearly three hundred.

It seemed that dozens of Black Armored Guards had been convinced.

“Three hundred Black Armored Guards, and currently only a few dozen respect the Misty Sect, which means the effort isn’t enough; I need to stoke the fire,” Ye Feng thought privately.

“Everyone, get up!”

At that moment, Zhou Jiacai shouted.

The Black Armored Guards on the ground rubbed the places they were hit, feeling sore all over, and were secretly amazed.

“Isn’t the Sect Leader of the Misty Sect just a mortal, why is he so fierce?”

“Look, the squad leader’s eyes are rolled back; he was beaten so badly… huh, why is there tomato skin at the corner of his mouth?”

“Are you blind? Those are pieces of internal organs.”

“Hiss!”

“No wonder the Deputy Commander invited Sect Master Ye over, he indeed has some skills. It’s just not clear how well he does with spells.”

The Black Armored Guards discussed among themselves.

Ye Feng, Zhou Jiacai, and Xin Guangxuan, all with good hearing, listened to the Black Armored Guards’ conversation and knew the time was right.

Zhou Jiacai stepped forward and announced loudly:

“Sect Master Ye is unparalleled in teaching spells. Next, he will provide guidance for you.”
