High-level martial arts: Contract cashback, invincible starting from the Zerg.

"Let's congratulate Su family's Chen Feng for defeating Xiang family's Xiang Hu. Su Feng's ranking on the Martial God Ladder has risen directly to 76th, while Xiang Hu's ranking has dropped one place to 77th."

After the referee announced the result of the match.

Chen Feng received a system message as soon as he left the Martial God's Ladder Illusion.

[Lucky Contract System: The system has detected that the host has reached the required ranking (76th) in the [Great Xia Martial God Ladder] within the specified time. Rewards will be given as part of the contract system side quest!]

[Lucky Contract System: Rewards one Sacred Contract, four Servant Contracts, 50000 Luck Points, and a random draw of a complete inheritance of a registered Martial God of the Great Xia Dynasty!]

Chen Feng glanced at the reward given by the Lucky Contract System without showing any emotion, as if the result was entirely within his expectations.

At this moment, everyone, including Chen Feng, had a new understanding of the Jueya Armed Forces.

If the most advanced technology of the Great Xia Kingdom is equivalent to a Level 1 plane civilization, then the level of its absolute sub-armor alone is at least equivalent to that of a Level 2 plane civilization.

In the Martial God Ladder Hall, everyone's gaze was drawn as if by invisible threads, fixed on the gilded ladder ranking stele floating in mid-air in the very center of the hall.

The spot that was originally engraved with "76. Xiang Hu" was now completely covered by a dazzling golden light, and then Chen Feng's ranking appeared on it.

For a full ten seconds, not a single person in the hall where hundreds of Great Xia Martial Gods stood made a sound.

However, soon everyone started discussing the duel.

"Chen Feng? Chen Feng, who just entered the Martial God Palace half a month ago and is ranked over nine hundredth on the Heavenly Ladder?!" A rogue martial artist's voice trembled.

"They suddenly took down Xiang Hu?"

"Crush? You used the wrong word! It was a complete annihilation! Didn't you see Chen Feng's last move? Xiang Hu's shield was shattered by Chen Feng's single strike!"

"The Absolute Armed Forces are truly legendary; no wonder no one can easily get their hands on them."

"That's terrifying."

Among the crowd, the Ling family members who had been recklessly mocking the Su family earlier now had increasingly grim expressions, with Ling Changhong frowning as he looked at Chen Feng.

Even Li Buyan, the usually composed young master of the Li family, stared intently at Chen Feng, as if he had seen a major variable that he had to take into account in his calculations.

Soon, a cacophony of voices rose up in the hall like a tidal wave.

The atmosphere within the Xiang family camp was extremely tense.

The eyes of Xiang Hu and the other direct descendants of the Xiang family were filled with incomprehension and resentment as they looked at Chen Feng, but Xiang Cang remained calm and continued to lean on the giant blade in his hand.

Su Qingyuan from the Su family was happy and immediately pulled Chen Feng to sit down next to her.

"Junior brother, you did a great job today. With your abilities, becoming our chief retainer is practically guaranteed. The only better option is to marry into a wealthy family."

Su Qingyuan affectionately pulled Chen Feng into her arms, her eyes filled with lingering interest.

"Senior Sister Su, please stop joking," Chen Feng said somewhat embarrassedly.

"I'm not kidding. You're only at the early stage of the Heaven Rank, yet you already have this much combat power. If we train you to reach the Desolate Rank, wouldn't you be a sure thing in the top ten of the Martial God Palace?" Su Qingyuan explained seriously.

"I am deeply grateful for Senior Sister Su's kind words. I will do my best," Chen Feng said, cupping his hands in greeting.

"Okay~~ Senior sister, I like someone like you who is both well-behaved and handsome."

Just as the entire Martial God Ladder Hall was engulfed in discussion about the Absolute Armor.

A lazy voice suddenly rang out from the mentor's seat, neither loud nor soft, but instantly drowning out all the noise.

"Quiet down. Winning is winning, losing is losing. It's not a big deal. All you big families are acting like you've never seen anything like this before."

It was Yu Qian, the instructor of the Martial God Palace.

Yu Qian slowly straightened up and walked to the mentor's seat. He first looked Chen Feng up and down, nodded in satisfaction, and then his gaze swept across the entire room. His originally casual eyes suddenly became sharp.

"That's right, you didn't see it wrong."

Yu Qian's voice carried an unquestionable certainty.

"Chen Feng, who took down Xiang Hu, is my disciple, Yu Qian's apprentice. He's my personal disciple, not just some nominal student."

As soon as these words were spoken, an even greater uproar erupted in the hall.

"A personal disciple?! Instructor Yu actually accepted a personal disciple?!"

"Did I hear that right? Didn't Instructor Yu say he would never take on any disciples in his life? Back then, even the son of the Palace Master of the Martial God Palace wanted to become his disciple, but he was turned away!"

"Isn't that because the tutor's standards are too high?"

"No wonder Chen Feng has improved so quickly! It turns out that Instructor Yu has been guiding him behind the scenes..."

At this moment, Ling Changhong's brows furrowed even more. He originally thought that Chen Feng was just a lucky rogue cultivator who had gotten lucky. Even if he had some strength, he didn't have any background. The so-called Absolute Armor was probably just a slightly more powerful toy.

Unexpectedly, Chen Feng not only won the competition, but also became Yu Qian's personal disciple.

Now things have become much more complicated.

Because the weight of Master Yu Qian's personal disciples is far greater than people imagine.

Yu Qian paused for a moment, then continued, "It was the elders of the Su family who recommended Chen Feng to the Martial God Palace. It seems the Su family is truly dedicated to nurturing talent. Chen Feng's achievements today are largely thanks to the Su family!"

Upon hearing this, Su Hong, the second elder of the Su family, blushed and quickly stepped forward, cupping his hands in greeting to Instructor Yu Qian, saying, "Instructor Yu, you flatter us. It is a blessing for our Su family to have a talent like Chen Feng."

The two sang in perfect harmony, their voices blending seamlessly together.

Those present were all elites and scions of prominent families in Gu Yong Shangcheng, so they couldn't possibly misunderstand.

This is far from a simple master-disciple relationship or family appreciation; it's clearly Yu Qian using Chen Feng to solidify his position in the Martial God Palace and, incidentally, win over the Su family, a potential asset.

The Su family, relying on its wealth and reputation, completely escaped the embarrassing situation of being a second-rate family and became an upstart that could not be ignored in the martial arts world of Great Xia.

More importantly, their newly created relationship was made public in front of all the martial gods in Gu Yong Shang City.

This is almost equivalent to telling everyone openly.

To harm Chen Feng is to harm Yu Qian, and to harm the entire Su family.

The murmurs in the hall instantly changed. Those who had been envious of Chen Feng's good fortune and questioning the origins of the Jueya Armed Forces all fell silent.

The only thing left in their eyes when they looked at Chen Feng was awe and envy.
