Chapter 241 East Courtyard Sword Team!

Ling Feng pushed the door open and entered, but instead of the expected scene of the sword team members training diligently, he was greeted by an empty hall.In this empty hall, there were several rows of weapons similar to those in the gravity rooms, indicating that there were places like gravity rooms in the sword team’s training grounds as well.

This was not surprising, as the training grounds for the elite of the East Courtyard would seem strange without such facilities.

"Where is everyone?"

Ling Feng was taken aback and, with a hint of curiosity, walked toward the staircase leading to the second floor.

Just at the foot of the stairs, Ling Feng heard a cacophony of noise.

"Big! Big! Big!"

"Small! Small! Small!"

"Haha, place your bets! Three sixes, triplets! Everyone loses!"

Accompanied by a burst of laughter, there was a chorus of complaints, "Lin Mochen, are you cheating? Winning every round! Screw you!"

"Damnit, Old Yu, can’t you take a loss? It’s just eighteen rounds in a row, you’ll definitely win next time!"

"I’m done, not playing anymore! Everyone knows your family runs a casino, and yet you, under the same roof, scam us of our Crystal Coins. That’s not right!"

"Play on, play on! Goodness, look at you all, I’ll give you back your Crystal Tickets, then we can play again, okay!"

"Now that’s more like it!"

Then came another round of "Big! Big! Big!" and "Small! Small! Small!" chatter.

Ling Feng listened, frowning. Had he come to the wrong place?

Was this a casino or a training ground?

At this moment, on the open space of the second floor, several shirtless fellows were gathered around gambling with dice, the dealer a boy with disheveled hair, and the group was having a great time.

Meanwhile, another group of three people, two men and one woman, was gathered around a conference table.

Back to the door was the captain of the East Courtyard Sword Team, Goo Tengfeng.

"Sigh, the spirits of our brothers have already scattered!"

Gong Cheng let out a sigh as he looked at the listless team members and couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

"No worries, I believe that once Ling Feng arrives, everything will change. I am certain of it!" Goo Tengfeng laughed heartily.

Sitting to Goo Tengfeng’s right was a woman in a red, tight-fitting dress who rolled her eyes with slight annoyance at Goo Tengfeng, "Captain, even so, our East Courtyard has such slim chances, it’s nearly impossible for us to represent Heavenly Position Academy in competitions against other academies. Was it worth giving up the chance to directly join the Black Armor Forbidden Army for an unrealistic dream?"

"It’s not about if it’s worth it. It’s my choice." Goo Tengfeng smiled faintly, his appearance not handsome but exuding a masculine vigor, his face angular as if chiseled by an axe.

Once he decided on something, no one could change his mind.

The woman in red let out a soft sigh; in truth, she too was an old team member, standing by Goo Tengfeng’s side all this time, not easily willing to give up on former ideals.

Yet, with such a sword team...

"Sister Xiaolin, you’re well aware of the captain’s temperament. This is his last year at Heavenly Position Academy, and no matter what, he wants to fight to the end!" Gong Cheng smiled at the woman in red, "Once you meet Ling Feng, you’ll understand that the captain indeed chose wisely."

Just then, Gong Cheng happened to see Ling Feng standing at the door, suddenly standing up and laughing, "Ling Feng, you’re here early!"

Upon hearing that Ling Feng had arrived, Goo Tengfeng picked up a chair and hurled it toward the guys still gambling with dice, "Darn it, he’s here, and you’re still playing dice!"

"Darn it, Boss, I was just about to win it all back!"

The long-haired boy named Lin Mochen immediately complained but seeing Goo Tengfeng’s sharp gaze, he shrank his neck and instantly shut his mouth, not daring to utter a word.

"Hehe, this is the new team member I’ve been telling you about—Ling Feng! With him, our East Courtyard Sword Team can make a big comeback this year and reclaim our honor!"

In Goo Tengfeng’s eyes was an unwavering confidence, not only in himself but also in Ling Feng.

He firmly believed he hadn’t misjudged this Yellow Character Disciple!

"Darn, a Yellow Character Disciple?" One of the black and sturdy fellows couldn’t help but frown upon seeing the "Yellow" character on Ling Feng’s badge. "Boss, we do need people on the team, but someone of this level wouldn’t even be accepted in the third team, right?" Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet

"Oh? If you can take advantage of Ling Feng in three moves, I’ll let you be the captain!" Goo Tengfeng gave him a sidelong glance and said coldly.

"No need for that, I wouldn’t dare compete for your position, Captain." Quickly waving his hand, the stout man continued, "But I am curious about your highly praised protégé’s real ability."

The black and sturdy fellow retrieved his robe from a stone platform nearby, swiftly put it on, then squinted at Ling Feng, pursed his lips, and said, "I’m Ye Nanfeng, a member of the first team. Although Boss Goo thinks highly of you, I still want to see your skills, you don’t mind, do you?"

This Ye Nanfeng was, apart from Goo Tengfeng and Gong Cheng, a capable team member of the East Courtyard Sword Team, who had just been promoted to an A-class Disciple this year.

It could be said that after Goo Tengfeng left, he had a great chance of becoming the next captain of the East Courtyard Sword Team.

"I certainly don’t mind," Ling Feng said calmly, "I also want to see how capable my future teammates are. Will they hold me back?"

"Hiss!"

At these words, several team members nearby took a sharp breath; they hadn’t expected such bold words from a newcomer, dismissing even seasoned A-class Disciples.

No wonder Goo Tengfeng took a liking to him!

The red-dressed woman, Xue Xiaolin, gave Ling Feng a once-over and noticed he was only at the Sixth Level of Pulse Condensing Realm, frowning slightly, "Captain, can he really do it?"

"Fighting will tell," Goo Tengfeng chuckled casually, "So, Ling Feng, Nanfeng, three moves at most, have a go, and try not to go too hard."

Ye Nanfeng raised a brow and grinned, "Relax, Captain, I won’t go all out on a newcomer!"

Goo Tengfeng gave him a glare, exasperated, "What’re you thinking? I was telling Ling Feng to go easy on you!"

"This..." Ye Nanfeng’s mouth twitched as he scrutinized Ling Feng for a long while without noticing anything extraordinary, biting his lip, withdrew his sword, and declared loudly, "Captain, that joke wasn’t funny at all! Since you speak this kid up so, let me, Ye Nanfeng, test him and see what he’s got!"
