However, what Lin Yu didn't know was that the reason Feng Xiaotian had developed so quickly was entirely because he had witnessed Lin Yu's genius and terrifying power in the Star Dou Great Forest.
And it was also because he was defeated by Lin Yu in one blow that time.
Feng Xiaotian was so devastated that he began to cultivate frantically and work hard, which led to his current realm.
And Feng Xiaotian never forgot what he said to Lin Yu at that time: If one day you and I meet again, I hope you can have a proper fight with me.
Feng Xiaotian had been working hard and waiting for this day, unaware that the peerless genius Lin Yu was currently at the Five Elemental Academies exchange meeting.
"These Five Elemental Academies do have some good geniuses, but with this level of strength, they still can't shake the Spirit Hall in the next Spirit Master Competition!" Dugu Yan commented.
The Spirit Hall could be said to be invincible in the next Spirit Master Competition.
Not to mention whether Qian Renxue and Lin Yu would participate, she, Dugu Yan, would definitely represent the Spirit Hall in the competition.
And now Dugu Yan's spirit power had also reached level 49, and she might step into the Spirit Emperor realm when the competition began, plus the Spirit Hall also had the trio of Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan.
By then, the Spirit Hall Team would basically have a lineup of one Spirit Emperor, three Spirit Kings, and three Spirit Ancestors.
With this intensity, even if Tang San participated in the next competition, he would be easily defeated.
"Indeed, however, if these Five Elemental Academies were to gather their strongest students and form a team, they might have a chance to win the championship."
Lin Yu nodded and said, after watching for a while, he found it uninteresting and prepared to leave early.
But it was also at this moment that someone suddenly recognized Lin Yu's identity.
"Hey, are you… are you Lord Lin Yu of the Spirit Hall?"
"What? Spirit Hall's Lin Yu? Hall Master of the Hall of Judgment!!"
As that person asked, everyone's eyes in the entire venue turned to Lin Yu, who was standing on the tree, and someone recognized him and shouted excitedly: "It really is Lord Lin Yu, Hall Master of the Hall of Judgment!"
"Oh my god! Lord Lin Yu is actually here!!"
"What a stroke of luck! To actually be able to see Lord Lin Yu on Sakura Mountain and witness his youthful heroic appearance!!"
"We commoners greet Lord Lin Yu!"
"Greetings, Lord Lin Yu!"
"Greetings, Lord Lin Yu!"
The scene instantly boiled over. The stage, which originally belonged to the Five Elemental Academies, became focused on Lin Yu.
Most of the people in the audience were incredibly excited, as if they had met their idol or a big star.
Their eyes were filled with awe, respect, admiration, and even gratitude and appreciation.
"It seems that after the Hall of Judgment officially started its work, it has already begun to influence the hearts of the people on the continent early on." Lin Yu guessed.
He had made a name for himself in the Spirit Master's world by his own strength, but it wasn't enough to make these people so respectful, worshipful, and grateful to him. The only explanation was that during his seclusion in the Sunset Forest, the Hall of Judgment had already achieved results on the continent.
And it must have eradicated a large number of evil deeds, greatly improving public security on the continent, which is why he received such respect from the people.
Seeing this, Lin Yu smiled faintly: "Haha, everyone, there's no need to be so polite."
"You all continue to watch your spirit đấu competition."
After speaking, Lin Yu, Qian Renxue, and Dugu Yan prepared to leave.
Oscar looked at the three of them in shock, very surprised: "My goodness, so he is the Hall Master of Judgment? Then... then that golden-haired beauty next to him must be the Young Master of the Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue!"
"I never thought! To actually encounter these two important figures of the Spirit Hall!"
"Lin… Lin Yu?"
And upon learning that Lin Yu was present, Feng Xiaotian and Shui Bing'er also became excited.
Feng Xiaotian was brimming with fighting spirit.
Shui Bing'er, on the other hand, was as happy as a little fangirl, almost flying.
But the one who first spoke to stop Lin Yu was Huo Wu of Blazing Academy: "Wait!! Please, Lord Lin Yu, stay!"
"Hmm?"
Lin Yu stopped and looked back at the girl with red hair, dressed in red, beautiful, and as eye-catching as a flame.
"Huo Wu! What do you want to do!" The dean of Blazing Academy quickly came to Huo Wu's side, fearing that Huo Wu would say something inappropriate and offend Lin Yu.
Huo Wu was a straightforward girl, speaking directly: "It is rumored that two years ago, Lord Lin Yu, at an age of less than ten, single-handedly killed a Spirit Emperor-level powerhouse!"
"To be honest, I, Huo Wu, find it hard to believe that there can be such a monstrous genius like you in this World!"
"To me, this is an impossible feat, so I have reason to doubt that the legends about you are false."
"Today, it's rare to meet Lord Lin Yu here. Could you please engage in a match and let us see if you are truly as powerful as the rumors say!"
"That's right! I'm also very skeptical!" Yu Tianxin also stood out.
"And me, Hu Yanli! Killing a Spirit Emperor at less than ten years old, without witnessing it firsthand, how many people would believe that?" Hu Yanli of Xiangjia Academy (Elephant Armor Academy) also stood out.
Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, Yu Tianxin, Hu Yanli, Shui Bing'er, Feng Xiaotian, these people could be said to be the cream of the crop among the younger generation, all belonging to the geniuses of the same era.
But Lin Yu's terrifying power was a Fault of crushing these so-called top geniuses on the continent.
If it was only one or two levels difference, they might still barely accept it.
But killing a Spirit Emperor at less than ten years old? This was not a matter of one or two levels difference; how could these top geniuses on the continent believe it?
Seeing these geniuses from the Elemental Academies brimming with fighting spirit and doubting him, Lin Yu didn't react much.
He just shook his head and smiled, politely refusing: "No need, today is your Five Elemental Academies exchange meeting, and I don't want to steal your thunder."
"And whether my deeds are true or not, I don't need to prove anything. Farewell, everyone."
He genuinely had no interest in fighting these people, because none of them could put up a fight!
"Lord Lin Yu, are you afraid of losing to us! Or are you afraid of being known that you are not as powerful as the rumors say, which is why you dare not fight us!" Huo Wu was very aggressive, trying to provoke Lin Yu into action.
Lin Yu was not provoked at all, and said calmly: "Mainly, your strength is a bit weak in front of me! I really can't get excited fighting you."
"What! We're weak?!"
"Lord Lin Yu, don't underestimate people too much!"
Lin Yu's words immediately provoked these geniuses from the Five Elemental Academies present.
"Even if our strength and talent are not as good as yours, we are at least geniuses and outstanding individuals among this younger generation! We are not comparable to those ordinary Spirit Elders outside!"
