Lin Feng could clearly sense the change in the girl beside him, yet he remained indifferent.
"Wah..."
While people were still immersed in their emotions, a scream sounded, followed by explosive music that rocked the entire venue. The heavy metal music instantly made one's blood boil.
People instinctively turned their heads to see the surface of Zhongyue Mansion's light curtain was projecting the spectacular scenes of today's Awakening Day.
The footage began with thirty thousand enthusiastic spectators, and amid the fervent cheers, various students made their shining appearances. Then the music shifted to a solemn tone depicting scenes of soldiers fearlessly hunting Demon Spirits, followed by numerous prominent figures contributing their Demon Spirits, [Blue Moon] playing its role, Demon Beasts attacking the city, and the most captivating scenes of students refining Demon Spirits.
Today, more than ten thousand student candidates participated in the Awakening Day on a ceremonial altar covering over a hundred acres. Despite watching intently, many spectators still couldn't clearly see the happenings on the field, easily missing out on exciting moments.
Now, the light curtain vividly and clearly showcased the process of the youngsters fusing with Demon Spirits. To appear on the light curtain, one must have fused with Demon Spirits of Eighth Grade or higher.
After each scene of the youngsters refining Demon Spirits was played, the names of the young boys or girls would appear on the light curtain.
Thus, the thirty thousand spectators couldn't help but get excited, shouting loudly, as if the entire city was in a boiling state.
Today, there was no doubt that the young stars appearing on the light curtain were undoubtedly big celebrities.
This included Song of Solomon.
This was unexpected for many, including Song of Solomon herself.
"Song of Solomon!"
As the audience loudly shouted this name, Lin Feng turned around and saw the radiance emanating from the girl's eyes, a mix of pride and perhaps vanity.
Vanity is something no girl can resist.
In her past life, Song of Solomon, who refined the Seventh Grade Ice Heron, did not have the chance to enjoy such glory.
"Song of Solomon, look, you really look so cool."
Gao Hai seemed even more excited than Song of Solomon as he held her, loudly calling out, appearing very thrilled.
"Mm."
Song of Solomon responded softly, her eyes fixed on the light curtain, her pink pupils emitting a brilliant shine.
"Ambition, huh?"
Lin Feng understood the meaning behind that gaze; he understood the value of the Enchanting Butterfly more than anyone else.
In a few years, comparable to an Earth Chart Enchanting Demoness, with Juxing Club's packaging, coupled with her already outstanding appearance, this girl would embark on a path that draws everyone's attention.
Although Song of Solomon's ranking wasn't high at the moment, Lin Feng knew that apart from Ye Qiu, probably no one could rival her in today's Awakening Day.
Feeling Lin Feng's gaze, Song of Solomon's eyes met Lin Feng's, both responding with silence.
"Lin Feng..."
Song of Solomon's eyes revealed a trace of confusion.
Lin Feng's gaze remained calm throughout, so calm that it seemed somewhat indifferent, neither envious nor disappointed, as if nothing had happened.
Like a spectator who had nothing to do with it.
"Song of Solomon, you'll have to look after us in the future!"
"Song of Solomon, you're one of this year's top ten geniuses, you must treat us."
The enthusiastic classmates around shifted Song of Solomon's attention, with the girl's gaze back to the light curtain.
If Song of Solomon stirred cheers, Bai Xingzhi stirred screams, then when Ye Qiu made his final entrance, fusing the Earth Chart-ranked Thorny Demon Dragon, the crowd suddenly quieted down.
The figure entirely covered by thorns looked extremely shocking; no one doubted his attack power.
Earth Chart, ranked forty-six!
This could be said to be the highest-level Demon Spirit ever fused in Jiang City's Awakening Day history.
After a brief silence, there came a cheer like a tidal wave, thirty thousand spectators, along with students, raised their hands in unison, shouting:
"Ye Qiu."
"Ye Qiu."
"Ye Qiu."
This name was shouted by thirty thousand people for a full five minutes before gradually stopping.
Today, this name thoroughly echoed through the streets and alleys of Jiang City.
Today, perhaps some might not know the names of Jiang City's nine guardians, but no one would forget the name Ye Qiu.
And the final scene on the light curtain was centered on Ye Qiu, with a backdrop of a sea of Demon Beasts, and the figures of the nine Demon Spirit Masters, including Song of Solomon, shrunk, encircling Ye Qiu like stars around the moon.
"So overwhelming!"
Gao Hai murmured, his eyes shining, like everyone else, he also longed for his figure to appear on the light curtain.
"Envious, huh?"
Lin Feng chuckled, patting Gao Hai's shoulder: "This isn't much; this is just Jiang City. One day, our figures will appear on Huaxia, even the world stage."
"Brother Feng, do you really dare say that?"
Even though Gao Hai admired Lin Feng greatly, he merely listened to these words, not daring to believe them, also feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Because he had already noticed that many people around were casting disdainful glances at them, some even mocking directly: "Really daresay, a useless person unable to fuse Demon Spirits, and trash who fused a Second Grade Demon Spirit, yet dares to say this."
"Do you think you're the Glory Team? Standing on the world stage; why don't you stand on Mars?"
"How ridiculous, it's embarrassing to be in the same school as him, go out and don't tell people you're from Jiangxin Middle School."
Every time he spoke, it incited others' angry rebuke. Although Lin Feng didn't care, he also felt somewhat annoyed.
"If you're unhappy, fight. Why talk so much!"
Lin Feng said indifferently.
Even though he was currently suffering from a loss in Qi and Blood, and his Spiritual Power was depleted, with his combat awareness and Secret Skill, dealing with these high school students was more than sufficient.
Even if they refined Demon Spirits, including Advanced Demon Spirits, they had just begun refining them; wanting to cultivate them for battle was still early, even talents like Ye Qiu probably needed several months to aid in combat.
Lin Feng's arrogant attitude made many people fume with anger; some were wary of Lin Feng's strength and didn't dare to say more, while others were itching for a fight. But now was Awakening Day; fighting on such an important day was not a wise choice.
"Kid, you've got guts, the future is long." The youths left hard words unsaid.
Song of Solomon was somewhat surprised at Lin Feng; even she didn't dare to say such words.
Only Ye Qiu might dare and be qualified to say such words.
Regarding Lin Feng's confidence, or rather arrogance, she didn't know what emotion to express, just feeling somewhat embarrassed and speechless at the moment.
Although it wasn't her who said it, she was Lin Feng's girlfriend!
Lin Feng didn't defend himself; he knew his behavior was somewhat foolish, but what of it, this indeed was his goal.
Joining the Glory Team, becoming one of them, eventually standing on the world stage to fight for the country and himself.
