Dragon God Supreme-Chapter 56 - : Shock
Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Shock
“Master Feng, the Great General is waiting at the camp. Please follow us to the camp,” Ling Zhantian said respectfully, not even Ye Cangqiong, the number one general under his command, dared to show any disrespect to Feng Wuchen.
If Ye Cangqiong dared not, how could Ling Zhantian?
“Thank you for your trouble.” Feng Wuchen nodded.
“After you, Master Feng,” Ling Zhantian said, making a welcoming gesture with respect.
Feng Wuchen mounted his warhorse and left with Ling Zhantian and several others, not bothering to quarrel with Song Dingtian.
It was a long while after Feng Wuchen and his company had left that the crowd was able to snap out of their shock.

...
“Master Feng! Could he be the Master Feng who is renowned throughout Yunzhou?” Song Dingtian quickly guessed but was not sure.
“General Ling is so respectful to him, who exactly is that young man?”
“I misjudged him! That youngster has a serious backing! General Ling actually addressed him as Master Feng!”
“Master Feng! Master Feng! That’s right! Wasn’t there a rumor recently about a Master Feng in Yunzhou who could create artifacts with a single thought? Could it be him?”
The people in the streets were abuzz, General Ling personally received him, and the Empire’s number one Great General was waiting at the camp. What kind of formidable person could receive such treatment?
Being so young and yet holding such a lofty position filled many in Luofeng City with extreme envy.
The warhorses thundered, majestic and mighty, indomitable, sweeping through all opposition.
Together with General Ling and a few others, Feng Wuchen rode his warhorse to the camp. Though not as fast as Sword Flight, it still offered the thrill of galloping speed.
At this moment, inside the camp, the soldiers of the Black Flag Army and the Sky Shadow cavalry were staring at the scorching sun, lined up in neat formations, waiting to welcome the important figure who was arriving.
More than five hundred soldiers exuded a ferocious, iron-blooded aura, their gallantry and unwavering loyalty apparent on their faces!
The entire camp was silent, everyone waiting, including Ye Cangqiong.
How long it had been, no one could tell, but the quiet camp was suddenly filled with the sound of horseshoes.
As the sound approached, Ye Cangqiong’s face broke into an excited smile, and the soldiers too perked up, their hearts filled with curiosity and anticipation.
What kind of powerful individual had Ye Cangqiong personally invited?
What kind of powerful individual could make them even stronger?
The soldiers were filled with anticipation!
As the sound of hooves grew closer, the soldiers could see General Ling’s horse, and their anticipation grew stronger.
But when they saw the young man behind the three generals, they were all stunned, then disbelieving.
Was this the fearsome figure personally invited by Ye Cangqiong? A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy?
Was this some kind of joke? How strong could a sixteen or seventeen-year-old be? Any soldier from the Black Flag Army or the Sky Shadow cavalry could easily take him down!
“The Great General invited a kid to toughen us up? Is this a joke?”
“The kid doesn’t look that impressive, but his talent is terrifying. He’s in the Transformative Realm’s First Layer at only sixteen or seventeen.”
“Could the Great General have made a mistake? Letting a kid toughen us up?”
The soldiers were deeply disappointed, murmuring among themselves. The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment!
However, among those five hundred soldiers, only one man was full of shock and fear, and that was Leng Mucheng!
“The person invited by the Great General is actually him!” Leng Mucheng could hardly believe it; Ye Cangqiong had actually invited his arch-nemesis to the camp!
Having Feng Wuchen come to the camp at the invitation of Ye Cangqiong was akin to pure torment for Leng Mucheng!
“Mucheng, what’s wrong? Do you know him?” one of the soldiers beside Leng Mucheng asked, noticing his pale face and cold sweat.
Leng Mucheng nodded, speaking softly, “He is very strong; he’s the one I told you about.”
“Oh? So he’s the one who defeated you?” The soldier looked at Feng Wuchen in surprise, finding it hard to believe.
Leng Mucheng reluctantly nodded, feeling increasingly anxious at the thought of encountering Feng Wuchen in the camp, certain to be tormented to death.
After dismounting, Feng Wuchen was warmly greeted by Ye Cangqiong, who said with a courteous smile, “Master Feng! You have finally arrived!”
Seeing Ye Cangqiong so enthusiastic, Feng Wuchen smiled and said, “I have seen the Great General.”
“You are too modest, Master Feng!” Ye Cangqiong replied happily, treating Feng Wuchen as if he were a priceless treasure.
“Master Feng?” Ye Cangqiong’s words shocked the soldiers even more.
First, they were shocked by Ye Cangqiong’s respectful treatment of Feng Wuchen, and second, they were stunned that this young man was the famous Master Feng of Yunzhou!
“Is he the Master Feng who is famous throughout Yunzhou?”
“The Thought-Forming Instrumentation Master Feng! No wonder the Great General personally invited him! Now that we have a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner, the General must want to provide us with powerful weapons!”
“It’s the Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner, Master Feng! But wait, Master Feng is an Artifact Refiner; he could at most help us with artifact crafting. How could he toughen us up?”
“To have persuaded a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner to come, the Great General must have gone to great lengths.”
The officers and soldiers erupted into discussion once again, their faces filled with shock, completely replacing the disappointment from before.
The Great General Ling Zhantian, who stood by, suddenly glared at the troops, frightening them into loudly exclaiming, “We welcome Master Feng!”
“Hmph! At least you’re quick on the uptake!” Ye Cangqiong expressed his satisfaction with the soldiers.
“Master Feng, these four hundred men are the Empire’s Black Flag Army, and these one hundred and thirty are the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry,” Ye Cangqiong hastily introduced them to Feng Wuchen.
Feng Wuchen nodded and glanced at the Black Flag Army, saying, “I’ve witnessed the strength of the Black Flag Army; indeed, they are not weak.”
His gaze turned to the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry as Feng Wuchen continued, “I’ve only heard of the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry. Seeing them for the first time today, their reputation is indeed well-deserved. They’re strong—the elites cultivated by the Great General are truly extraordinary.”
“Master Feng flatters us; it’s all their own doing!” Ye Cangqiong said with a happy smile. He was naturally pleased to receive Feng Wuchen’s praise for the soldiers he had led, as it was his proudest accomplishment.
As soon as Ye Cangqiong finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and asked with a frown, “Master Feng, you said you’ve seen the strength of the Black Flag Army? Could it be that you’ve sparred with the members of the Black Flag Army?”
Feng Wuchen nodded and said with a smile, “You could say that.”
At these words, Leng Mucheng’s soul almost flew out of him, his back drenched with cold sweat, nearly unable to remain standing.
The soldiers of the Black Flag Army and the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry were also very curious about which member of the Black Flag Army had sparred with Feng Wuchen and what the outcome had been.
Ye Cangqiong, seemingly worried that Feng Wuchen bore a grudge, immediately put on a stern expression, and with a sweeping glance at the Black Flag Army, he asked in a deep voice, “Who was it? Step forward!”
“Mu Cheng! Take care of yourself!” The soldier beside Leng Mucheng said seriously.
Leng Mucheng shot him a fierce glare before stepping out.
“Leng Mucheng!” As Leng Mucheng stepped forward, the crowd was surprised, as it seemed the rest of the Black Flag Army was unaware as well.
Ye Cangqiong’s eyes, filled with anger, fixed on Leng Mucheng as he shouted, “Leng Mucheng! You’ve got some nerve! How dare you show disrespect to Master Feng!”
“Reporting to the Great General! I did not know he was Master Feng at the time!” Leng Mucheng reported truthfully, shooting a glance at Feng Wuchen and fuming internally, “This damn kid really wants to ruin me!”
“Great General, he truly did not know at the time!” Feng Wuchen said indifferently, seeing the panic in Leng Mucheng’s eyes and finding it amusing.
“Hey, Leng Mucheng, who won between you and Master Feng?” a soldier from the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry asked curiously.
Leng Mucheng replied very reluctantly, “Master Feng won!”
“Master Feng won? A First Layer of the Transformative Realm defeated the Third Layer?”
“Is that even possible? Is Master Feng really that strong?”
The officers and soldiers were all shocked, their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Everyone who was present knew the strength of the Black Flag Army; they were an impregnable force, brimming with brute power, and no opponent of the same realm could best the Black Flag Army!
Feng Wuchen was merely at the First Layer of the Transformative Realm, yet he managed to defeat Leng Mucheng; how terrifying must his strength be?
Not just them, even Ye Cangqiong couldn’t believe Leng Mucheng had actually been defeated by Feng Wuchen.
Ye Cangqiong was well aware of the caliber of the soldiers he had trained.
“Great General, does Master Feng really possess that great strength?” a soldier asked curiously.
“Great General, even if Master Feng could defeat Leng Mucheng, it wouldn’t be possible for Master Feng to train us, would it?”
“Master Feng is only at the First Layer of the Transformative Realm; we are all above the Sixth Layer. Maybe it’s possible for him to train the Black Flag Army, but not us. Let the Great General train us instead.”
“Right, Great General, it’s enough for Master Feng to help us refine artifacts!”
The soldiers of the Sky Shadow Fire Cavalry put forward their views one after another, unable to accept Feng Wuchen training them, yet they also didn’t dare to offend him.
Even some of the stronger members of the Black Flag Army showed opposition.
As the elite of the Empire’s elite forces, each one was full of pride. How could they allow a youth younger and lower in cultivation than they were to train them?
“Silence!” Ye Cangqiong roared with fury, his terrifying aura bursting forth, immediately silencing all the soldiers!
Ye Cangqiong had gone through great lengths to invite Feng Wuchen to train these soldiers, and their objections infuriated him to the point of nearly exploding.
“Great General, there’s no need for anger,” Feng Wuchen said with a slight smile, unbothered, then looked at the soldiers and spoke calmly, “I will not force any of you. If any of you are willing, stand by my side.”
Feng Wuchen’s voice was not loud, but it was filled with confidence.
At that moment, the soldiers quieted down, looking at one another, but none of them took the first step forward.
“I’ll do it!” Leng Mucheng was the first to speak up.
In Leng Mucheng’s view, Feng Wuchen’s presence was sure to torment him. Opposing Feng Wuchen in the barracks was undeniably seeking death; it would be better to obediently comply, perhaps sparing himself some suffering.
Leng Mucheng was the first to speak up, to Feng Wuchen’s surprise—he hadn’t expected Leng Mucheng to be willing.
Pleased with a smile, Feng Wuchen then asked, “Who else is willing?”
“Me too!” shouted a member of the Black Flag Army, who quickly stepped forward—it was the man who had been standing next to Leng Mucheng.
Seeing only two people willing, Ye Cangqiong’s face grew utterly dark as he said sternly, “You all had better not regret your decision! Master Feng is only giving you one month!”
