The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1399: Ling Fengs Choice

"Junior Brother Ling!"

A trace of excitement flashed through Li Fei's eyes. She quickly tugged at Ling Feng's sleeve and nodded at him.

Bai Qi was ranked thirteenth on the Creation Star Ranking. Although he was not one of the Ten Young Emperors, he was among the very best of the fifteen elite team leaders. Following his team would certainly provide more opportunities to earn contribution points.

"Boy, your Soul Dao talent is not bad. Follow me and I can guarantee you will not die!"

Bai Qi spoke in a lofty and commanding tone. His manner was arrogant and overbearing. He treated Ling Feng as if he were a servant who could be summoned and dismissed at will.

In his view, being willing to take in a mere outer sect disciple was already a tremendous favor.

High in the air, the three hall masters watched the scene with interest. The Profound Thunder Hall Master narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly. "This outer sect disciple named Ling Feng is quite popular!"

The Tempest Wind Hall Master shifted his gaze to Lin Mu beside Ling Feng. He smiled lightly, then turned to Saint Lady Bi Luo. "Junior Sister Bi Luo, it seems your younger brother is quite close to this outer sect disciple. I can make arrangements for Yi Shuihan from my Tempest Wind Hall to take your brother and this disciple under his wing and offer some protection."

Lei Wensheng of the Profound Thunder Hall frowned and immediately interjected, "Zuo Feiqing, do you think only your Tempest Wind Hall has elites ranked in the top thirty of the Creation Star Ranking? Junior Sister Bi Luo, my Profound Thunder Hall is full of talented individuals as well. We can also look after Lin Mu!"

Saint Lady Bi Luo frowned slightly and replied calmly, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Brothers. However, matters between disciples should be resolved by the disciples themselves. It would not be appropriate for us to intervene."

The Tempest Wind Hall Master nodded gently. "Junior Sister Bi Luo is right. I was being rash."

His demeanor was refined and courteous, like that of a cultivated gentleman.

"Hmph! What a flatterer!"

Lei Wensheng cursed. His personality was the exact opposite of the Tempest Wind Hall Master. He was direct and outspoken.

Saint Lady Bi Luo shook her head with a wry smile. Since their disciple days, both Lei Wensheng and Zuo Feiqing had pursued her. Being caught between the two left her in a difficult position. People were not made of stone, and feelings were inevitable. However, what she felt was more akin to familial affection than romance.

Within the crowd, Bai Qi stared fixedly at Ling Feng. When no response came after a long pause, he frowned and revealed a trace of displeasure. "Boy, what are you hesitating for?"

Ling Feng touched the bridge of his nose. It was true that Bai Qi was powerful. He ranked thirteenth on the Creation Star Ranking and was one of the most outstanding elites of the inner sect.

However, Bai Qi's conduct was overly domineering and arrogant. The Land of War was not a place for internal sect rivalry. It was a battlefield against the northern barbarians!

On a battlefield, someone like Bai Qi was not suited to command others. He lacked coordination and strategic planning. Relying solely on brute courage often led to an early death.

Moreover, Bai Qi clearly did not respect him. Following such a leader would likely lead down a single rigid path with no flexibility.

Choosing him might even be less secure than joining Yuwen Changkong's team.

At least Ling Feng's strength was not far inferior to that team's leader.

As Ling Feng hesitated, another elite from the top thirty of the inner sect approached with a smile. "Senior Brother Bai, it seems Junior Brother Ling is not willing to join your team. Why not follow me, Ding Yue?"

A charming female team leader let out a soft laugh. "Junior Brother Ling, you defeated Wang Ruquan of the inner sect and became famous in a single battle. Then you forced Yuwen Changkong back with one move, which made your reputation soar. Now that I see you in person, you are quite the handsome young master. My team happens to lack a few pleasing junior brothers. Senior Brothers, you must give this little sister some face!"

Two more team leaders extended invitations in succession. For a moment, Ling Feng became the center of contention.

Soul Dao experts were rare. Even within the inner sect, those with mental attacks as powerful as Ling Feng's were few.

With his Frost Crow's Ghost Eye, once he unleashed a mental beam, ordinary opponents were rendered helpless. It was an extraordinary weapon for accumulating contribution points.

...

In the end, even Chu Tiange approached after some consideration. He looked deeply at Ling Feng and said slowly, "Junior Brother Ling, if you have not yet decided, why not join my team?"

Before Chu Tiange could finish speaking, the charming senior sister from earlier teased him. "Junior Brother Chu, you are ranked twenty ninth on the Creation Star Ranking. Among all the team leaders, you are second from the bottom. How do you have the nerve to compete for him?"

Another burly man with a rugged appearance laughed loudly. "I heard that when you were competing for cultivation grounds in the Earth Emperor Pool, you were driven out by Junior Brother Ling. If he joins your team, perhaps the team leader should be replaced?"

Their open and subtle mockery caused Chu Tiange's face to flush red. He no longer held any hope that Ling Feng would join his team.

At that point, seven of the fifteen team leaders had stepped forward to compete for Ling Feng. Originally he had worried about whether he could find a team. Now he faced the dilemma of choosing among them.

High above, the Profound Thunder Hall Master snorted lightly and spoke loudly, "Boy, since so many team leaders value you, make your decision quickly. Do not waste time."

Ling Feng nodded slightly and thought for a moment. His gaze settled on Chu Tiange.

"Senior Brother Chu, I hope to join your team."

"What?"

The team leaders ranked above Chu Tiange revealed expressions of disbelief. Had Ling Feng lost his mind? He had chosen the weakest among them.

Even Chu Tiange himself stared at Ling Feng in astonishment. "Junior Brother Ling, are you serious?"

"Of course."

Ling Feng nodded. He pointed to Li Fei beside him and said calmly, "However, I hope Senior Sister Li Fei can join as well!"

Ling Feng's decision was not impulsive. First, he had some understanding of Chu Tiange. Although Chu Tiange had suffered a major loss at the Earth Emperor Pool, he had not harbored resentment. He accepted defeat gracefully and was able to let go of pride. His invitation was not driven by impulse.

Second, precisely because Chu Tiange had once suffered under him, he would respect Ling Feng's opinions more. Such a team leader was what Ling Feng needed.

"Of course. Of course. With Junior Sister Li's strength, I would be more than delighted if she is willing to join my team!"

Chu Tiange was overjoyed. Although Li Fei ranked near the bottom of the Creation Star Ranking, she was undoubtedly a strong expert. Gaining both of them was far from a loss.

The other team leaders sighed. Chu Tiange had truly stumbled upon a treasure in Ling Feng.

"Damn it!"

Yuwen Changkong snorted coldly. Ling Feng had already chosen Chu Tiange. No matter how many schemes he had prepared, they were now useless. He flicked his sleeve angrily and left in frustration.

With Ling Feng taken, the remaining team leaders could only depart to seek out other promising members.
