Chapter 1 A Shocking Display

Although Shi Feng spoke calmly, to the Bai Shi Dynasty at that moment, watching Shi Feng walk towards them step by step felt like watching a primeval beast approaching. They couldn't help but breathe rapidly, cold sweat pouring down their backs, wishing they could turn and run.

One person had routed over ten thousand members of the Gai Shi Family.

If anyone had told them that before, they would have laughed out loud, but now they couldn't bring themselves to smile.

The Bai Shi Dynasty had clashed with the Gai Shi Family many times, and they were evenly matched. If Shi Feng could single-handedly suppress the Gai Shi Family, he could naturally pressure the Bai Shi Dynasty as well.

At this moment, Ba Dao Chang Kong's expression was indescribably ugly.

If he had known it would come to this, he would have never gotten involved…

"Esteemed expert, I think there must be some misunderstanding between us. I only wanted to invite you to join because I couldn't stand the Gai Shi Family. If I had known you were so powerful, I wouldn't have bothered you. I, Ba Dao, am willing to pay ten thousand Magic Crystals as compensation for my offense," Ba Dao Chang Kong said respectfully, looking at Shi Feng, without a trace of his previous arrogance.

"What generosity from Ba Dao!" Gu Jiuji exclaimed in amazement.

To offer ten thousand Magic Crystals just as an apology, in Gu Jiuji's eyes, Ba Dao Chang Kong was simply crazy.

Even a well-known adventure team like their Aurora Sword only had about two thousand Magic Crystals saved up.

Magic Crystals were essential items in Han Feng City. When crafting weapons and equipment, they needed to be transformed into Magic Crystals at the Life Association's special workshop to greatly increase the success rate. In addition, the Divine Demon Arena also required a lot of Magic Crystals, so they couldn't save much.

In Han Feng City, although there were quite a few places to obtain Magic Crystals, taking out ten thousand Magic Crystals at once would be a significant blow to the Bai Shi Dynasty.

However, Gu Jiuji didn't understand the considerations of a guild leader like Ba Dao Chang Kong.

If an expert of Shi Feng's level held a grudge and occasionally attacked the guild's main force or elite members in the wild, they wouldn't be able to bear it. Moreover, they couldn't do anything about Shi Feng. Such a situation would be extremely damaging to the guild in the long run.

These ten thousand Magic Crystals were not only to compensate for his mistake, but also to build a better relationship with Shi Feng.

"Ten thousand Magic Crystals?" Shi Feng was also slightly surprised.

He didn't expect the resources of Han Feng City to be richer than he had imagined.

In his opinion, the Bai Shi Dynasty and the Gai Shi Family were only at the level of third-rate guilds in the God's Domain Continent. Taking out ten thousand Magic Crystals would make the guild bleed, but judging from Ba Dao Chang Kong's expression, it was just a bit painful.

Seeing Shi Feng frowning slightly, as if he wasn't satisfied, Ba Dao Chang Kong gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't think that's enough, how about adding this map?"

With that, Ba Dao Chang Kong took out a tattered animal skin from his backpack, exuding an ancient aura. Although the animal skin had been stored for a long time, it still emitted a faint pressure.

This pressure was only a trace, but it made everyone present feel an indescribable fear.

"This is… Divine Might?" Shi Feng looked at the animal skin in Ba Dao Chang Kong's hand in surprise.

Divine Might was a unique aura possessed only by gods. Anything that could be contaminated with this aura was no ordinary item, let alone appearing in a place like the Ice Crystal World.

Although the Ice Crystal World was of a high level, it could only withstand fifth-tier creatures at most. Sixth-tier gods couldn't enter at all, so it was even more precious and special for an item used by a god to appear in the Ice Crystal World.

"What do you think, expert?" Ba Dao Chang Kong asked with a smile, seeing that Shi Feng was very interested in the animal skin.

He had obtained this animal skin a long time ago. Although he knew it was precious, he hadn't discovered its secrets. If he could make Shi Feng satisfied and build a good relationship with their Bai Shi Dynasty, it would be a good thing.

"Alright!" Shi Feng nodded.

His purpose in coming to the Ice Crystal World was to obtain the Eternal Ice Crystal, not to unify Han Feng City. Naturally, there was no need to fight with the guilds here. If the Gai Shi Family hadn't taken the initiative to provoke him, he wouldn't have bothered to deal with them.

Hearing Shi Feng's agreement, Ba Dao Chang Kong also breathed a sigh of relief. He then handed over the ten thousand Magic Crystals and the animal skin to Shi Feng. As for the weapons and equipment that had dropped on the street, Shi Feng also sold them to Ba Dao Chang Kong at a discount, either in exchange for gold coins or various rare materials.

A player's spatial backpack only had one slot for each piece of equipment, but it was different for materials. Many pieces could be stored in one slot, maximizing the carrying capacity.

Ba Dao Chang Kong was also very happy about this.

The Gai Shi Family members who had charged up were all elites of the Gai Shi Family, and many of those killed by Shi Feng were experts of the Gai Shi Family. The dropped weapons and equipment were all top-quality in Han Feng City.

This one transaction earned Shi Feng nearly eight thousand gold's worth of rare materials. If he sold them, he could easily get more than twenty thousand gold, but more than twenty thousand gold couldn't buy these rare materials.

With these rare materials, the Candlelight Trading Firm's blacksmiths could greatly improve in a short period of time, and they might even be able to train a blacksmith master.

After obtaining the materials, Shi Feng went straight to the Han Feng City Library.

The news of Shi Feng's battle, in which he overwhelmed the Gai Shi Family with his strength, spread like wildfire throughout Han Feng City, causing a sensation among the players.

"Too awesome! He can suppress the Gai Shi Family all by himself, and even make the Bai Shi Dynasty show respect. I wish I had half his strength!"

"The title of the number one expert in our Han Feng City is going to change hands. Before, everyone recognized Jing Wu Ming, but now it should be this unknown swordsman."

"I wonder if this expert accepts disciples. If he does, or if he starts an adventure team or guild, I'll be the first to sign up!"

For a time, players throughout Han Feng City were discussing Shi Feng's exploits. Due to Shi Feng's appearance, the original situation of two major overlords in the city directly turned into a situation of one superpower and two strong forces.

In the Ice Snow Grand Canyon, a life-forbidden zone within Han Feng City, a cold and handsome man wearing ice-blue armor and holding a purple electric spear was fighting a Level 54 Great Lord, the Frozen Earth Magic Wolf.

Although the Frozen Earth Magic Wolf's speed and strength were extraordinary, it was helpless against this man and was instead constantly restrained.

Because of this man, the twenty-member team could easily deal with this Frozen Earth Magic Wolf.

In less than ten minutes, the Frozen Earth Magic Wolf fell to the ground and dropped several items. The experience points gained also greatly increased the team's progress.

Just as the team was resting, a heroic female swordsman in the team suddenly looked at the cold and handsome man, who had his eyes slightly closed, and said with a smile, "Wu Ming, didn't you always boast that you were the strongest in Han Feng City? Now you have a rival."

"A rival?" Jing Wu Ming, who had his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened them and shook his head, saying, "In my opinion, the experts in Han Feng City are just a bunch of frogs in a well who haven't even reached the entrance. It's still ten years too early for them to be my rivals."

"I'm not talking about those people," Mu Xiaoxiao said leisurely with a smile. "Didn't you boast about how powerful you were? But can you beat ten thousand elites of the Gai Shi Family all over the streets by yourself?"

"How is that possible? That's ten thousand elites of the Gai Shi Family," Jing Wu Ming rolled his eyes at Mu Xiaoxiao.

"Then why do you keep boasting that no one in Han Feng City can match you? Let me show you. Just now, there was a swordsman expert who single-handedly suppressed the Gai Shi Family and made the Bai Shi Dynasty offer compensation," Mu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, sending the information to Jing Wu Ming and teasing him.

"This is impossible…" Jing Wu Ming looked at the battle video in Han Feng City, his eyes widening, "How can there be such a strong expert?"

"How is it? Didn't you say that the swordsman class is useless? Now you know that we swordsmen can be powerful too," Mu Xiaoxiao said with a slight smugness, seeing Jing Wu Ming's shocked expression.

"Indeed, he's powerful. I'm not even on the same level as him," Jing Wu Ming admitted frankly.

Hearing Jing Wu Ming say this, Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned. She had thought she could strike a blow at Jing Wu Ming to avenge his constant attacks on her before.

Before Mu Xiaoxiao could say anything, Jing Wu Ming immediately stood up and took out a City Return Scroll from his backpack.

"What are you going to do?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked in surprise.

"Isn't it obvious? Of course, I'm going to find that expert," Jing Wu Ming said, unable to contain the excitement in his eyes.

"You're crazy. We finally made it here, and you're going back…" Mu Xiaoxiao was speechless.

As Jing Wu Ming turned into a white light and disappeared, they could only helplessly take out City Return Scrolls and follow him back one by one.

In the noble district of Han Feng City, Shi Feng, sitting in a high-class carriage, couldn't help but take out the animal skin that Ba Dao Chang Kong had given him to examine it.
