Chapter 211: Try It If They Dare
In the most prosperous Cloud Soaring Hotel in the center of Central City, an interview was happening less smoothly.
“Mr. Feng Mingxi, may I ask why you’re applying to Star Cloud Academy?” Yang Xirui maintained her professional smile and asked a young man who was clearly not even 20 years old.
As the number one academy in the federation, the Martial Arts Branch was known as the cradle of high-level martial artists in the federation. Every year, the entrance test would be highly anticipated.
The degree of attention received for this year’s entrance examination was much higher than previous years. The young man in front of him was a very important factor.
The reason was very simple. This was because his surname was Feng, and he was the grandson of one of the eleven Star-Grade Martial Artists in the federation, Feng Nanshan!
“Why?” Feng Mingxi chuckled and shook his head, as if he was very impatient with Yang Xirui’s question, “You reporters are really something. Everyone came to ask me why. Is there a reason for this? I wanted to come, so I came.”
Yang Xirui’s expression immediately froze.
This Feng Mingxi’s actions and words were filled with arrogance, causing her to feel very uncomfortable.
If not for her job, she would definitely be unwilling to interact with such a person.
However, she was already pleasantly surprised that Feng Mingxi was willing to accept the interview of the Martial Arts World Channel. She could not ask for too much.
After more than half a year of first-line interviews and training, Yang Xirui had long nurtured her professionalism. She quickly adjusted and asked, “The Feng family clearly has an extremely powerful and complete martial arts inheritance. Why won’t you stay in the Feng family to cultivate and register for Star Cloud Academy? Although Star Cloud Academy has many powerful martial arts, it’s clearly much more difficult to obtain than the Feng family’s own resources. I’m afraid it’s not suitable to compare.”
“You say it’s much more difficult?” Feng Mingxi laughed, “That’s right, I want this to be much more difficult! I’m born to like to challenge difficult things. Stay at home and cultivate those things that they’ve long studied? Follow the path that others have walked countless times? I’m not willing to be so vulgar. Let me tell you, since I was young, I’ve never learned any martial technique passed down by my family! All the martial techniques I know now are found by me. It has nothing to do with my family.”
Yang Xirui looked at him speechlessly.
Although she had heard this rumor before coming to the interview, hearing Feng Mingxi say it personally still made her feel a little unacceptable.
This guy in front of him clearly had the martial arts resources that almost all the young martial artists in the federation dreamed of, but he did not cherish them at all.
When she thought about how the other young martial artists in the federation might rack their brains and think of ways to obtain a B-rank or even C-rank martial technique, the arrogance of this Feng Mingxi in front of her made her especially dissatisfied.
However, this guy’s talent was indeed abnormally high. On the foundation of not learning the Feng family’s martial techniques, he could actually possess such powerful strength at such a young age, far surpassing most of the young people of the same generation. It was really speechless.
Chu Nan’s figure suddenly flashed through Yang Xirui’s mind.
In terms of talent, Chu Nan should not be inferior to Feng Mingxi.
However, his martial arts environment had been much worse than Feng Mingxi’s since he was young, causing his first step in choosing an Internal Breath cultivation method to be greatly problematic.
Because he had chosen the Nine Revolutions Technique, it was very difficult for him to cultivate to a higher level before he became an adult, so it was almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future.
Although Feng Mingxi did not learn any martial techniques of the Feng family, he had grown up in the Feng family after all. It was clearly much easier for him to come into contact with other martial arts resources. At the same time, he would definitely be able to receive the guidance of the elders of the Feng family at the critical moment and there would definitely not be a problem like Chu Nan.
In this aspect, he, a young martial artist from a martial arts family, was clearly much stronger than other young martial artists with ordinary backgrounds.
“Then, did Supremacy Feng Nanshan raise any objections to your decision?” Yang Xirui asked again.
“The old man never cared about me.” Feng Mingxi shrugged, “When I said that I wanted to come to Star Cloud Academy, he said that I could come. Oh, although he doesn’t have any objections, he still has his opinion.”
“Oh? What’s his opinion? Something related to the test?” Yang Xirui immediately asked.
“Heh, why would I need any help from him? He only said that since I’m going to participate in the entrance examination, don’t embarrass the Feng family. Therefore, my results in the entrance examination must be first. That’s all,” Feng Mingxi said as if it was natural.
Yang Xirui frowned slightly, “But according to what I know, the examinees who came to participate in the Star Cloud Academy’s entrance examination this year are all genius martial artists from all over the federation. There are countless experts among them, and there’s even another Star-Grade Martial Artist, the disciple of the ‘Saint Hand Heaven’s Heart’ Supremacy Oville, who is also participating. I’m afraid it’s not that easy to snatch the first place from so many powerful opponents.”
“All geniuses?” Feng Mingxi grinned, “The more geniuses, the better! If the opponents are not strong enough, this test will be too boring. As for the disciple of Supremacy Oville… Speaking of which, since you came to interview me, will you still interview that girl, Angie Prairie?”
“There is indeed such an interview plan, but I have yet to obtain Miss Angie Prairie’s approval.”
“What? That fellow didn’t agree to your interview?” Feng Mingxi’s expression suddenly changed slightly as he cursed softly, “Damn, I was tricked by this girl again.”
Yang Xirui was stunned, then immediately reminded, “Mr. Feng Mingxi, please pay attention to your words. This interview will be broadcasted on the Martial Arts World Channel after this.”
“Just cut out this part.” Feng Mingxi waved his hand impatiently, “Alright, if you have any more questions, quickly ask. In addition, help me warn your peers not to disturb me in the future. I’ll only accept interviews from your Martial Arts World Channel. I won’t agree to any other interviews. If they still dare to disturb me, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
After a pause, he added, “There’s no need to say this. Just release it as it is.”
Yang Xirui was immediately stunned.
“But this will probably cause the media to be furious. It might damage your personal image and the overall image of the Feng family…”
Feng Mingxi frowned, and a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
“If they dare to casually throw shade at me, don’t blame me if anything happens in the future. As for defaming our Feng family… try it if they dare?”
Yang Xirui could only shake her head helplessly and smile bitterly. She composed herself and asked the remaining questions according to the established interview process. In the middle, she mixed in a few last-minute questions and finally ended this not-so-successful interview.
“Mr. Feng Mingxi, thank you for your cooperation in the interview. We’ll edit this interview video later. In order not to cause any misunderstandings, we’ll let you take a look first.”
“There’s no need. Just cut off the part where I scolded Angie Prairie. There’s no need to cut the rest. That’s all. In any case, don’t disturb me in the future.” Feng Mingxi waved his hand with an impatient expression.
Yang Xirui frowned slightly. “Alright, that’s it. I wish you good results in the test. Goodbye.”
As soon as he stood up and left the room, a young man of the same grade as Feng Mingxi passed by Yang Xirui and rushed into her room.
Yang Xirui glanced at it from the corner of her eye and was stunned.
The personal terminal in the young man’s hand was opened, and a recording image appeared on the virtual screen.
Among the people displayed on the screen, one of them was clearly Chu Nan!
