By the time Chu Feng’s hands were aching from all the massaging, Sister Tiantian was finally satisfied.
But while Su Tiantian was satisfied, Chu Feng, being the sort of person who always treated everyone fairly, naturally noticed Senior Sister Yuyan glancing over at them from time to time.
So he circulated his true qi to ease the soreness in his hands, then volunteered to give Senior Sister Yuyan a foot massage as well.
Bai Yuyan naturally had no reason to refuse and thus readily accepted her junior brother’s kind offer.
Except, compared to Su Tiantian, she even revealed her long, fair legs.
Gulp~
Chu Feng swallowed. Truth be told, he had a thing for legs, breasts, and butts. As for whether he had a thing for feet… cough, cough. Well, a pair of feet pressed together wasn’t bad either.
Bai Yuyan gently stroked her thigh with her jade-like hand and said, “Junior Brother, don’t just massage my feet. Massage my legs too. It helps improve blood circulation and dispel blood stasis.”
“I… I understand…”
Chu Feng stared at those long legs, fair and lustrous as ivory. His hands kneaded the soft, supple flesh with just the right amount of pressure, making Bai Yuyan unable to suppress a quiet hum.
Chu Feng’s technique left Bai Yuyan’s entire body feeling relaxed.
“Junior Brother, who taught you these techniques?”
“Mhmm, I guess you could say I’m self-taught.”
Chu Feng wasn’t exactly lying. At first, there had been his Master, then Sister Wan’er, and finally, after undergoing Sister Tiantian’s extensive training and combining it with the techniques he had learned in his previous life, his skills had now reached the point where he could practically open his own massage parlor.
Hearing this, Bai Yuyan’s gaze gradually grew complicated. During the time she had spent in seclusion, her once-innocent junior brother had nearly been corrupted by these women.
Especially Su Tiantian. If her junior brother weren’t still too weak to get the better of her for now, who knew how far she might have already taken her teasing?
Bai Yuyan felt it was about time she showed her junior brother that she had charms of her own.
“Junior Brother, mm~ You can… go a little higher.”
“Huh!?”
Chu Feng had no idea what Senior Sister Yuyan was trying to do, but she looked at him with a dreamy gaze and asked, “Junior Brother, you don’t want to?”
Since it was Senior Sister Yuyan’s request, he naturally obliged.
Senior Sister Yuyan’s legs truly were beautiful, reminding him of a certain saying. Some beauty was meant to be admired rather than touched.
But now that the opportunity was right in front of him, Chu Feng felt that a person ought to know when to seize the moment.
As the sensations from the massage traveled up her legs, Bai Yuyan’s pretty face flushed crimson. She lightly bit her cherry-red lips, her fingers tightening around the hem of her skirt.
Finally, she hurriedly said, “That’s enough, that’s enough. Junior Brother, you can stop now.”
If this continued, she was afraid she would lose all the dignity she had as his senior sister. She needed to stop him before things went any further.
“All right.”
Chu Feng reluctantly withdrew his hands. He had to admit, Senior Sister Yuyan’s legs were the kind that could make any leg enthusiast lose their mind.
But thinking back on it, it seemed Sister Saintess and the others all had gorgeous legs like these.
Mm, truly a blessing for a leg lover.
Bai Yuyan hurriedly got to her feet, leaving a trail of delicate fragrance behind her as she slipped into the tent that had just been set up. She needed to change into a fresh set of clothes.

“Coo—coo—”
Above the dense mountain forest, a spirit pigeon soared through the sky before finally descending near a group of people.
Amid the wilderness, a full ten people had gathered here, all of them at the fourth rank or above. The one leading them was none other than Wei Mingxuan.
Just to be safe, his senior brother had offered additional compensation and posted a bounty on the academy’s underground exchange. In the end, they had assembled ten cultivators at the fourth rank or above. This time, they were determined not to let their target escape.
A young man walked over to Wei Mingxuan and reported, “Mu Hou won’t be able to make it. According to our information, that kid defeated him head-on… and it only took one move.”
The moment those words were spoken, everyone around them reacted with shock. Mu Hou was a mid-stage fourth-rank cultivator, yet he had actually been defeated in a single move by some third-rank brat!
Wei Mingxuan hadn’t expected this either. After pondering for a moment, he said, “That kid probably used some kind of secret technique to temporarily boost his strength. Besides, Mu Hou is terrible in a direct confrontation. He specializes in drawn-out fights, so it isn’t that surprising that he lost in a head-on clash.”
He swept his gaze across the group. Seeing so many fourth-rank cultivators gathered around him filled him with confidence. “There are ten of us now, and every one of us is at the fourth rank or above. There’s only one of him, and he’s merely a third-rank cultivator. No matter how you look at it, it’s ten against one. The advantage is ours!”
“Coo, coo—”
At the spirit pigeon’s call, Wei Mingxuan beckoned with his hand, and the pigeon landed on his shoulder. Stroking its head, a cold glint flashed through his eyes.
“Looks like we’ve found that kid’s location.”

The rules of the third elimination round were similar to a battle royale.
All contestants would enter the mountain range together. As time passed, the formation covering the entire mountain range would gradually shrink until, eventually, only the winner remained.
During this period, it was essentially one massive free-for-all.
When Wei Mingxuan finally found Chu Feng, he discovered that there were two women beside his target.
The two women were extremely affectionate with the young man. In fact, he was practically nestled between them, looking every bit like a spoiled young master enjoying the company of beauties on both sides.
“What do we do? The situation’s changed. Are we still going through with it?”
One of them asked Wei Mingxuan.
Wei Mingxuan studied the two women, mentally going through all the female cultivators at the fourth rank or above in the Sword Dao Academy. Neither of them matched anyone he knew. They were probably just pretty faces who had gotten lucky and made it into the third round. After seeing that this kid was fairly strong, they had likely used their beauty to persuade him to team up with them.
“Don’t panic. We proceed according to plan. Those two women’s auras are weak as well. We’ll deal with that kid first.”
Wei Mingxuan spoke in a low voice.
Su Tiantian and Bai Yuyan had noticed the ten of them long ago. However, this was Chu Feng’s battle, so they had no intention of interfering unless necessary.
Soon, Chu Feng also sensed that something was amiss. He pulled Sister Tiantian’s jade-like hand away from his cheek, flicked his wrist, and drew his Black Iron Sword. Staring into the shadowy forest nearby, he called out coldly,
“Who’s there? Come out!”
“Well, well. Didn’t expect a brat like you to have such sharp senses.”
Wei Mingxuan shot out from between the trees and landed heavily on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Nine more figures flew out and landed around Chu Feng, completely surrounding him.
“Kid, if you admit defeat now, you can spare yourself a beating.”
Wei Mingxuan stood before Chu Feng as he spoke. The icy sword qi from that day had left a deep impression on him. This kid definitely had someone powerful backing him. Otherwise, how could he have transferred into the academy midway through the term?
Chu Feng looked around at the ten people surrounding him. Judging by the cultivation auras they gave off, every one of them was at the fourth rank or above. He calmly said, “Admitting defeat without even putting up a fight would be far too embarrassing. Besides, I don’t think I’m necessarily going to lose.”
Although he was at a disadvantage in both strength and numbers, victory and defeat weren’t decided by numbers alone. Quality mattered too.
An army of ten thousand refugees still wouldn’t be able to defeat a thousand elite soldiers.
Wei Mingxuan narrowed his eyes. “Looks like you still don’t understand the situation you’re in. You do realize that we have you surrounded, don’t you?”
Chu Feng smiled, his expression filled with confidence in his own strength, and shook his head.
“Senior Brother, I think I should be the one saying that.”
“All ten of you have been surrounded… by me alone!”
A violent surge of sword intent suddenly erupted from between Chu Feng’s brows.
Buzz! Buzz!
The wave of sword intent swept outward as streak after streak of sword light soared into the sky. The rays intertwined, converging into a vast river of sword qi. Like an enormous dragon, the torrent of sword qi coiled through the air above Chu Feng.
It stretched endlessly overhead as its razor-sharp sword intent enveloped everyone present.
