Merging with Demon Spirits-Chapter 337 - 249: Yang Qing’s Regret
Tonight, for the residents of Shanghai, and even for everyone nationwide, it is destined to be a sleepless night.
The situation that occurred during the preliminary round of the National College Glory Battle has spread throughout the country, causing a nationwide sensation.
Although it’s past midnight, and even though people are quite tired, students and office workers alike are reluctant to sleep, waiting by their televisions or computers for the latest news.
At this moment, half of the TV channels are interrupting their regular programming to broadcast this preliminary round.
The current scene on television shows more than 300,000 spectators outside the Jade Seal Spatial Gate, waving their right hands and cheering and screaming loud enough to echo throughout the city.
Seal the gate.
Seal the Jade Seal Spatial Gate!
This battle can be said to gather the most outstanding geniuses of the current Human and Alien Races, not just in Huaxia—at this moment, the eyes of the whole world are focused on Shanghai.
The news of Lin Feng killing Hai Wei has spread worldwide, and as the latest battle achievements arrive, and as the death toll of alien races is reported, frenzied screams begin to spread across the nation.
At this time, no one is able to sleep.
No one wants to sleep.
"Lin Feng!"
"Ye Qiu!"
"Zhan Tianyu!"
"Yang Ningbing!"
"Yu Qiao!"
"Huang Tianze!"
"Yun Kai!"
Outside the Jade Seal Spatial Gate, 300,000 people simultaneously waved their right hands, frantically shouting these seven names over and over, hoarse from shouting.
The shouts have thrown Shanghai into a frenzy, and even with hoarse throats, people are unwilling to stop.
Three in the morning.
When the latest news arrived again, not only were there screams; the entire city seemed to be in a state of riot, all police and law enforcement personnel were fully deployed to maintain order, fearing any accidents might occur.
People looked at each other, the shock and pride in their eyes made their faces red and their bodies tremble.
"Tian Qing is dead!"
"Xue Ying is dead!"
"Huang Ying is dead!"
"Leng Xue is dead!"
....
As the familiar names of alien geniuses were announced one by one, it seemed the whole nation fell into a carnival, a scene even more lively than New Year’s Eve.
For some reason, amidst the joyous scene, a suppressed sobbing sound emerged.
As if laughing, then crying!
As if crying, then laughing!
"Mom, my brother and dad’s revenge is taken, my brother and dad’s revenge is taken!"
In the crowded mass, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl raised her head, tears in her eyes, leaning beside her mother.
"Yes, they can rest in peace now."
The woman’s eyes were already red; after speaking, she seemed to vent with even more excited shouting: "Lin Feng! Lin Feng!"
As she shouted, she held a photo frame tightly, in which a family of four was happily smiling.
But her husband and son were already dead, killed by Hai Wei’s hands....
With shouting, tears wetted her lips.
In buildings and skyscrapers, huge light curtains were all lit up, continuously playing the highlights of Lin Feng and the six others’ history.
A sense of national pride and glory stirred those not present on site with an urge to vent.
And to vent, many chose to drink.
At this moment, bars across the country were packed to the brim, unable to fit any more people, and even outside, they were crowded, everyone looking at the light curtains on the tall buildings, holding beers, flushed and loudly discussing.
Meanwhile, in Jiang City, Lin Feng’s first-endorsed Huating Restaurant now had 125 branches, almost all over Jiang City.
Every branch was full at the moment, crowded since the morning, voices booming, and the chefs and waiters busy to no end.
And Zhou Fu, standing at the door of his flagship store, staring at the sign with Lin Feng’s photo and signature, felt as if he had reached the peak of his life.
"Who can have my foresight!"
At that moment, Zhou Fu’s face seemed to shine, unable to hold back his admiration for himself, he began to recall the scene when he first met Lin Feng.
Who could have imagined that in just two years, an unremarkable young man would not only become the top scorer in the college entrance exam but also the nation’s new rising star.
After today, Lin Feng will become the number one among the younger generation!
No one can compare to him!
Even refining a First-Grade Dragon Fish, he proved his strength to the world with his battle achievements!
"Zhou Fu, I’m really damn envious of you, you struck it rich."
"Brother Fu, how did you discover Lin Feng’s potential back then, tell us!"
Nearby, friends’ envious congratulations made Zhou Fu feel a bit elated, though he tried to stay calm, he couldn’t suppress the smugness at the corners of his mouth: "You guys just don’t get it, guess what feeling I had when I first saw Lin Feng?"
After asking, Zhou Fu caused a chorus of inquiries: "What feeling."
"Tell us quickly!"
Even a passerby at the door stopped, looking curious.
Due to Lin Feng’s endorsement, as Huating filled Jiang City, Zhou Fu gained significant fame, appearing on television numerous times, known as Lin Feng’s first appreciator.
Zhou Fu deliberately paused, as if lost in memory, and under the urging expectant eyes, after a while, he said: "I seemed to see my former self!"
The atmosphere instantly froze.
"Holy crap!"
"Idiot!"
"Fatso!"
Facing Zhou Fu was a chorus of curses, and some couldn’t resist the impulse to act.
I’ve got my pants off, and you tell me ghost stories!
Is this a cold joke?
"Old Zhou, this year’s earnings might double if you separate them, right? How long is Lin Feng’s endorsement contract?"
After a few playful chastisements, a middle-aged man in a suit asked, "How about letting me buy some shares? Money’s not a problem; just name your price, and I won’t bargain!"
"Haha..."
Zhou Fu chuckled, shook his head without hesitation, and directly refused, "Even if I named a price, you couldn’t afford it!"
"Name it, and I’ll listen?"
The man in the suit didn’t argue, continuing the banter.
Zhou Fu smiled without speaking.
The public and media only knew that he signed Lin Feng for an endorsement fee of 18 million at the time, but nobody knew it was a lifetime endorsement!
Lin Feng’s annual endorsement fee now is at least a billion; what does lifetime endorsement mean!
Not to mention the branches he has now, just the Huating brand alone is worth a trillion.
Buying shares?
Starting price at least in the billions!
.....
Over Shanghai’s skies, strong figures flapped their wings, flying towards the same destination.
"Tonight is truly madness!"
In mid-air, someone looked down at the dense crowd, marveling.
This preliminary round has drawn global attention, extremely rare.
With the news of Tian Qing and others’ deaths, even these powerful individuals are amazed.
On Divine Martial Continent, where Alien Race dominates, Human Race has long been disadvantaged, even hunted; such a glorious moment is scarce, worthy of going into textbooks.
And now, the leaders and coaches of the Three Heroic Academies have gathered, chatting and laughing, with no competition left between them.
Originally ranked last among the Three Heroic Academies, Red Cloud University has become the center of attention.
Lin Feng, Yun Kai, and Yu Qiao, all three are from Red Cloud University!
Especially Lin Feng, who is the main character of this event, shining brightly.
"You have repeatedly surprised me!"
Bu Zheng sighed inwardly; when the news reached him, it was hard to hide his astonishment.
Killing Hai Wei, Tian Qing, Huang Ying, Leng Xue.....
He killed the famous geniuses of the Alien Race.
Sixth Grade invincible!
No doubt!
The value of Lin Feng’s team far exceeds their actual strength.
Lin Feng has now entered the national leadership’s view, and no one can easily spy on his secrets anymore.
Even he doesn’t know what the secret is?
Shangjing.
The mist-laden Cloud Mist Mountain.
The incense is subtle and elegant; in the bright room, Yang Qingtian watched the light curtain displaying over 300,000 people shouting ’Lin Feng,’ silent for a long time, eyes filled with a hint of lament, unable to snap back to reality.
The same goes for Yang Qing.
Having become Martial King, he already possesses strength comparable to his father, yet sitting next to his father now, he feels uneasy; this feeling is very uncomfortable.
"Originally, he was the Qilin of the Yang Family!"
After a while, Yang Qingtian slowly uttered, remorse in every word.
Today, seven geniuses’ names resounded across the nation.
Among them, Yang Ningbing is his granddaughter.
But undoubtedly, Lin Feng’s existence shines the brightest.
The brilliance of the other six is incomparable to his alone.
If previously, there was a glimmer of hope to reclaim this child with blood ties and family foundation, now, as this child’s name becomes national pride, idolized by students, even globally recognized, the hope of reclaiming has become dim.
Lin Feng has stepped into the gaze of the higher-ups.
Just entering Sixth Grade, he can hunt Hai Wei and Tian Qing, even Huang Ying; such a genius sometimes plays a more vital role than an Emperor.
After today, the whole nation will pave the way for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng will become the child of glory!
Is Yang Race’s foundation comparable to a country?
Listening to his father’s lament, Yang Qing remained silent for a long time, offering no opinion.
After today, his glory and pride pales in front of this child.
He can no longer comfort himself.
Though unwilling to admit, he knows, he regrets....
