Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 157 The Lucky One

The battle between the two noble ladies was merely a sideshow; although the process was stunning, it couldn't compare to the lottery segment Master Lin Feng had described. At this moment, the many figures on the field all had burning eyes.

Aside from a few individuals like Gu He and Fa Ma, who were themselves capable of refining fifth-grade pills, even Nalan Jie, the head of a major power in the capital, couldn't help but secretly hope that he would be the lucky one later.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng, staring at the dazzling sun, felt the atmosphere wasn't quite right. He stroked his chin, deep in thought. The next instant, Lin Feng's eyes widened, and he clapped his hands. "I've got it!"

Lin Feng looked at the leaders of the major powers in the capital, his lips twitching slightly, as if he were communicating telepathically.

The few Dou Wang experts were slightly taken aback after receiving Lin Feng's telepathic message, as if they had heard something strange. However, they were extremely accommodating to Lin Feng's request, and the matter seemed quite interesting. They summoned their guards and whispered something to them.

Time slowly passed, and many figures on the field began to get restless. Didn't Master Lin Feng say that he was going to start selecting lucky audience members? Why is he now closing his eyes and meditating?

Before the group could remain puzzled for long, a group of people dressed in black suddenly appeared in the square, rapidly forming hand seals.

"High-level Yellow Rank Combat Skill - Cloud-Covering Sun!"

As the numerous figures shouted, streaks of pitch-black battle aura suddenly appeared, then rapidly spread upwards into the sky. In a short while, they completely obscured the sky within a radius of several kilometers, appearing from a distance as if a pitch-black semicircle had covered the area.

Within this dark semicircle, only the Breakthrough Pill in Lin Feng's palm continued to gleam.

"These are Grade 3 Recovery Pills, ten in a bottle, enough to sustain your battle qi. The rest is a token of our gratitude."

Seeing that the figures before him were mostly at the Dou Ling level, Lin Feng worried that if the show wasn't over yet, their Dou Qi wouldn't be able to support the vast, dark sky, which would be a huge disappointment. So, with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen jade bottles appeared and floated in front of them.

"We thank Master Lin Feng very much!"

Upon seeing the jade bottle, the dozen or so people's eyes burned with excitement. They never expected that their rare dark attribute battle qi would lead to such a wonderful opportunity. After quickly consuming two recovery pills, they all clasped their hands in respectful thanks.

Meanwhile, everyone on the field was somewhat confused by Lin Feng's actions, wondering what he was doing. Only the clever and mischievous Yao Yue, her big eyes sparkling, seemed to have a vague idea.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the environment is set up, let's begin the lucky winner selection process."

Lin Feng raised the Breakthrough Pill in his palm high, and a wisp of battle qi surged into it, causing the pill, which had been emitting a faint light, to shine even brighter.

"In a moment, I will use the Dou Zong Dan as a guide to control it and levitate it at an extremely high speed above everyone's heads. Moreover, President Fa Ma, Sect Master Yun Yun, and Princess Yao Ye will act as witnesses. The three of them will count down three numbers in turn to select three lucky audience members."

Seeing that everyone was drawn to him, Lin Feng continued.

"You need not worry about any cheating. I will shield the light of the Breakthrough Pill and then use a sealing technique to isolate its aura. As long as no advanced combat techniques are used, no one can cheat in front of you."

"Now, please step forward, all three of you!"

As Lin Feng finished speaking, Fa Ma took the lead and walked towards the center of the square. Yun Yun, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, was also slightly taken aback. She then took long strides and slowly walked to Lin Feng's side, a fragrance wafting into Lin Feng's nostrils.

"This Master Lin Feng is truly interesting!"

The gentle and charming Sect Master Yun glanced at Lin Feng beside her and couldn't help but smile slightly. Unfortunately, no one could see this exquisite scene in the pitch-black environment.

Just as Princess Yaoye was about to go on stage, Yaoyue grabbed her and quickly ran into the arena.

"Hehehe, Master Lin Feng, let me do this fun thing!"

Looking at the quirky and clever Yaoyue in front of them, Lin Feng and the others couldn't help but find her rather adorable, and didn't blame her.

"Since Princess Yaoyue is interested, then we'll have to trouble you later!"

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Princess Yaoyue patted her rather ample chest slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. She thought to herself, "Luckily, Master Lin Feng is as approachable as ever. Otherwise, if he asked me to go down now, I would have lost face big time."

After the three entered the arena, Lin Feng waved his hand, and the Breaking Sect Pill, which had been radiating a powerful light, suddenly became plain and unadorned. Then, patterns appeared around it, which was the Five Elements Sealing Technique.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the prize draw is now officially beginning. So, who will be the lucky winner?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng waved his hand again, and the Breakthrough Pill passed over the heads of the many figures in the square at an extremely fast speed. Some skeptics tried their best to sense it, but found nothing; it seemed as if there was nothing above them.

"Who among the three would like to go first?"

"Haha, in that case, I'll go first in the first round!"

Just then, Lin Feng's conversation with Fa Ma attracted everyone's attention. The crowd stopped focusing on sensing the location of the pill and turned their gazes toward Fa Ma in the arena.

"Three, two, one," Fama stroked his beard, pausing briefly on the count of one, and everyone's breath hitched as well, the scene instantly becoming tense. Who would be the first lucky one?

"stop!"

"Buzz"

As Fa Ma uttered the word "stop," a strange fluctuation resounded throughout the arena. Immediately afterward, a bright light suddenly shone from a certain spot. Following the light, everyone saw the vanished Breaking Sect Pill hovering above the head of a burly man, rising and falling.

Upon seeing the burly man's face, Xiao Yan, who was completely hidden under his cloak, was taken aback. "Isn't this the person I questioned this morning? I didn't expect him to have such luck."

The burly man was clearly surprised by his luck and stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.

"Zhang Laosan, you've struck gold! Hurry up and go up, Master Lin Feng is waiting for you!"

Seeing the big man's appearance, his friend couldn't help but remind him with a sour tone, "Zhang Laosan is usually so simple-minded, who would have thought he would get so lucky today."

"Oh oh oh"

In a daze, Zhang Laosan walked to the center of the square.

"My friend, what kind of Grade 5 pill do you desire?" Lin Feng asked with a smile, then, as if afraid the other might not know what Grade 5 pills were available, he waved his hand, and a scroll slowly floated to his side, covered with densely packed large characters.

"My friend, these are all the grade five pills I can refine, along with their annotations. Please choose one!"

The burly man stared at the scroll in front of him, paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth.

"Master Lin Feng, can I not choose a fifth-grade pill?"
