“Although that boy is of age, he still feels like a child. Do you know how that boy felt when all that pressure came cras.h.i.+ng down on him?”
Lin Yuan did not respond because he knew that Gao Feng was not looking for a reply. He just needed someone to vent his true feelings to.
It was clear that Gao Feng was talking about himself.
Gao Feng picked up the jug of wine and took a few more gulps before he started to cough violently.
As he coughed, he said, “This boy is terrified of death because it will mean that he will no longer be able to see this world, eat good food, take part in the Allstar Match, or have drinks with his friends anymore.
!!
“However, when the boy found out that the matter concerned the pride of the Radiance Federation, he felt all the blood rush to his head for some reason. He became willing to safeguard the Radiance Federation.
“Even if it means that he won’t be able to see the world, eat good food, partic.i.p.ate in the Allstar Match, or have drinks with his friends anymore. He’s willing to accept all of it! Don’t you think that this boy is really stupid?”
Lin Yuan stared at Gao Feng’s eyes which had gone red from spluttering and coughing.
At that moment, Gao Feng seemed less like he was venting and more like he was bidding goodbye.
Although he was a disciple of royalty, and it was his duty to take on all of this, he did have the option to say no.
Being a support-type spirit qi professional, he would have plenty of opportunities during the Radiance Hundred Sequence’s qualifying rounds to get himself eliminated.
Once he did that, he would have nothing to do with everything that came next.
However, Gao Feng would not do so.
No matter how attached he was to the world or how afraid he was of dying, he was willing to take on all of the responsibility.
This meant that Gao Feng was worthy of his t.i.tle.
Now that he knew Gao Feng’s choice, Lin Yuan gave him an internal thumbs-up.
At that moment, Lin Yuan did not know how he should comfort Gao Feng.
He summoned Genius and instructed it to use Tool Transformation.
Lin Yuan put on the silver mask.
When Gao Feng saw the cat that Lin Yuan summoned, he was immediately stunned.
After Gao Feng accepted his duty, he regarded Black as his teammate.
Gao Feng was a support-type spirit qi professional.
When he chose this path, he would need to trust his teammates during battle.
After he became a disciple of royalty, his horizons were expanded. Thus, he tried to find someone exceptional among those who were partic.i.p.ating in the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.
Eventually, Black caught his eye.
Hence, Gao Feng searched for Black’s Celestial Stairway battle recordings so that he could study Black’s power.
He wanted to find the best way to support Black.
Gao Feng had watched Black’s battles many times.
The only thing that he remembered was the phantom image of the cat that had appeared behind Black.
Gao Feng had not managed to pick up on anything else.
This frustrated Gao Feng.
Black had only shown a few of his feys. If Gao Feng did not even know what feys Black had, how could he come up with a plan to support him?
The cat that Lin Yuan summoned did not resemble the phantom image of the cat that had appeared behind Black. However, both had eight tails.
Before Gao Feng could ponder even further, the cat used Tool Transformation and turned into a mask that Lin Yuan wore.
In an instant, a name flew out from Gao Feng’s lips—”Black!”
Lin Yuan nodded at the stunned Gao Feng and said, “That’s right. I’m Black. I will be by your side not just tonight over drinks but also during battle.”
Gao Feng had been excited when Cicada Song arranged for him to contract a sacred source lifeform.
But when he learned his sacred source lifeform’s abilities, he almost exploded on the spot.
I’m a pure support-type spirit qi professional! I don’t have any combat abilities, so all I can do is get beaten up. Unlike defense-type spirit qi professionals, I can’t hold out against enemies using my feys’ defense abilities. It would be fine if my sacred source lifeform was combat-type. At least I would be able to retaliate! But what am I supposed to do with a support-type sacred source lifeform!?
This was the reason Gao Feng looked like he was holding back when he came to see Lin Yuan.
At the break of dawn, he thought about how he would be sacrificed and was headed for his inevitable death.
He cared about the type of his sacred source lifeform because he was afraid that he would not be able to do anything other than get beaten up and humiliate himself in a fight that involved the Radiance Federation’s pride.
Gao Feng also came to see Lin Yuan to bid him goodbye.
So how did Lin Yuan suddenly become his teammate?
If Lin Yuan was Black, this meant that the person he would have to support during the fight was Lin Yuan.
Gao Feng had witnessed Lin Yuan’s power for himself at the Guard Ye Banquet’s Martial Arts Stage.
A strong wave of confidence rose within Gao Feng.
But his face fell again when he thought about the sacred source lifeform he had contracted.
He scratched his head and said uneasily, “Lin Yuan, the sacred source lifeform I formed a contract with is too lousy. I might end up being dead weight during the battle. I have no clue why Master said it’s the strongest support-type sacred source lifeform he’s ever seen.”
Gao Feng’s words immediately piqued Lin Yuan’s interest.
Cicada Song was a member of royalty and had seen more than the average person would see in their entire life.
If Cicada Song acknowledged it as the strongest support-type fey, it definitely had incomparable abilities and merits.
The Moon Empress had once mentioned to Lin Yuan that the strongest support-type fey on record was Cicada Song’s Alleviating Wind.
Yet, Cicada Song chose to remove the t.i.tle from his own sacred source lifeform and hand it to Gao Feng’s sacred source lifeform.
This meant that Gao Feng’s sacred source lifeform had to be extraordinary.
So why did Gao Feng think of his sacred source lifeform as useless and dead weight?
At that moment, Gao Feng said, “Lin Yuan, have a look at my sacred source lifeform. Although neither of us will be able to depend on it during battle, the Breeze Hibiscus and Spirit Spring Lily will still be able to help to recover spirit qi while the Yellow Spring Lily will be able to extend your feys’ lives.”
While Gao Feng was speaking, a crystal box that shone with rainbow light appeared in front of him.
