When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

"Jiang...Jiang Feng?!"

Sun Jianye slumped onto the sofa, his lips trembling uncontrollably, looking at the boy with shock and disbelief in his eyes.

In the past few days, both the political and martial arts circles in Linchuan City have been in an uproar!

Everyone is talking about Jiang Feng like crazy!

They won first place in the three-city league with an overwhelming victory!

One man and one sword slash their way through the secret realm!

Countless parents even regard Jiang Feng as a role model for educating their own children!

But Sun Jianye never dreamed that the legendary prodigy was actually the son of his subordinate!

And he was standing right in front of me!

Recalling his own words of scolding the other person for being "vain and hiding in internet cafes to play games," Sun Jianye felt as if he had been slapped hard across the face, the pain burning!

I'm so ashamed!

Sun Changsheng, however, was not at all as embarrassed as his father. Instead, his eyes shone as he stared at Jiang Feng with adoration.

"You...you really are Jiang Feng?!"

Sun Changsheng's voice trembled with excitement.

Although he wasn't qualified to participate in the league, he had heard those prodigies talk about Jiang Feng's achievements!

Slaying fifth-tier beasts is as easy as drinking water!

One punch blasted the Blood Vulture Gang leader to pieces!

Even cult traitors were slaughtered by him like chickens!

This is even more exciting than online novels!

"Jiang Shen! You're now the idol of all high school students in the city!"

Sun Changsheng's face flushed with excitement, and his heart was filled with regret.

If only I had worked a little harder back then, I could have participated in the league with Jiang Feng and witnessed his god-like prowess!

"Click".

Just then, the door to another bedroom was pushed open.

Hearing the commotion outside, Shen Weilan rubbed her sleepy eyes and came out.

Since awakening the bloodline of the Divine Fire Phoenix, her temperament has undergone a tremendous transformation.

Her already aloof and stunningly beautiful face now possesses an ethereal, otherworldly quality, as if she were untouched by worldly affairs.

Her skin was as white and lustrous as the finest mutton fat jade, with a subtle, flowing luster; her figure was slender and perfect, without the slightest flaw.

"Brother? Why are so many people suddenly at the house?"

Shen Weilan blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Jiang Feng with some confusion.

"hiss!"

Upon seeing Shen Weilan's face, Sun Changsheng gasped.

Immediately afterward, a thought flashed through his mind, as if he had remembered something, and he pointed at Shen Weilan and shouted excitedly:

"You...you're Shen Weilan, aren't you?!"

"I've heard from those prodigies that Jiang Shen single-handedly ventured into the heart of the secret realm for your sake!"

"You must be Jiang Shen's girlfriend?!"

"My God, you two are actually living together?!"

"Cough...cough cough cough!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng, who had been calm and collected, suddenly blushed and almost choked on his own saliva.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is my sister."

Jiang Feng quickly coughed to hide the panic in his eyes.

My parents are still here.

He didn't want to be questioned by his parents about everything.

Then, he quickly turned to look at Lu Chenshan, abruptly changing the subject, "Mayor Lu, you just said... Jiangnan Province awarded me a medal?"

At this moment, Shen Weilan's pretty face flushed red to her ears, and like a frightened little rabbit, she hurriedly hid in the toilet.

As a shrewd person, Lu Chenshan naturally saw through it but didn't say anything.

He laughed heartily, his expression instantly turning solemn as he handed the purple-gold medal in his hand to Jiang Feng.

"Jiang Feng, you must keep this [Jiangnan Province - Demon Suppression Purple Gold Medal] safe!"

Lu Chenshan's eyes shone brightly as he announced in a loud voice, "To date, only three people in the entire Jiangnan Province have received this highest honor!"

"And those three peerless geniuses... have now all grown into powerful figures of the eighth or even ninth rank, guarding their respective regions!"

"You're the fourth one!"

"boom!"

These words seemed to trigger a magnitude 12 earthquake in the living room!

Jiang Jianguo, who had been somewhat hesitant because of the presence of his superiors, burst into tears upon hearing these words, and straightened his back instantly.

His son actually has the potential to become a ninth-rank powerhouse in the future?!

Sun Jianye couldn't sit still any longer; cold sweat soaked through the back of his shirt, and he instinctively stood up abruptly from the sofa.

Immediately afterward, Long Yuan, the president of the Linchuan City Martial Arts Association, strode forward and laughed heartily: "Jiang Feng, the official honors are all given. Next, it's time for our Martial Arts Association to give you a reward."

"If it weren't for your heroic efforts, the losses suffered by Jiangnan Province this time would have been incalculable!"

As he spoke, Long Yuan took out a mysterious ice jade box that radiated a chilling aura from his bosom.

With a soft "snap," the jade box opened.

Instead of the elixir I had imagined, there was a strange fruit that was entirely crimson, with magma flowing on its surface and faintly outlined with a dragon pattern!

The moment the jade box was opened, a rich, almost tangible fragrance wafted out, and just one breath made one feel their inner energy surge and their meridians feel refreshed!

"This is... a fruit?"

Jiang Feng was slightly taken aback.

"No, this is a medicinal pill!"

A solemn look flashed in Long Yuan's eyes as he introduced in a deep voice, "A top-tier sixth-grade spiritual pill—the Nine-Turn Heaven-Burning Nirvana Pill!"

"Jiang Feng, remember this: pills of grade six and above have returned to their original state, no longer in the form of mud balls, but will take on a form that best matches the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!"

"This kind of pill can only be made by alchemists of at least the grandmaster level!"

"Looking at the entire Jiangnan Province, this is also a strategic resource that is under strict control!"

Long Yuan sighed and said with a sigh, "I have served in the Martial Arts Association for decades, and I have only been rewarded with one sixth-grade pill."

"This [Nine-Turn Heaven-Burning Nirvana Pill] is extremely yang and powerful. It can not only help you break through to the sixth-grade Martial King realm without any obstacles, but it also has a miraculous effect of transforming one's body for those with fire-type physiques or special bloodlines!"

Upon hearing this explanation, Jiang Feng gasped in shock.

The official team has definitely gone all out this time!

If this pill were put up for sale, it would definitely fetch an astronomical price that would shake the entire martial arts community of Linchuan City!

Moreover, it's priceless and unavailable!

At this moment, Sun Jianye and his colleagues were already ashen-faced, their minds completely blank.

Seeing the Martial Arts Association present a priceless treasure capable of shaking the martial arts world, and then looking at Jiang Feng, who was being fawned over by everyone...

The same thought flashed through their minds simultaneously.

This is no ordinary child from a working-class family!

They've clearly stumbled upon the imperial palace by mistake!

P.S.: I don't know why I'm so sleepy today. There are still two chapters left today, and I'll make up for the ones I owe later.
