Either eat the venomous insect or be eaten by it!

Of course, verbal descriptions are inferior to seeing it with your own eyes. Feng Qing’an asked Heishan to go and take a look. He wanted to broaden his horizons and see what the chicken had been through to accumulate such potential.

Hooo-

Heishan naturally agreed to Feng Qing’an’s request. After waiting for several hours and only less than eleven Ghost Creatures remained, the old monk’s Zen Sound finally ceased. At this moment, there were only a handful of Ghost Creatures left. Even the Ghost King was nowhere to be found.

It wasn’t that the Ghost Creatures couldn’t bear the monk’s chanting, but the monk was suppressed too harshly. As a result, the monotonous scriptures that fell into the ears of the Ghost Creatures were unbearable. It was like the constant humming of a fly, which irritated them.

Even so, a few Ghost Creatures remained in the courtyard. They stayed until the very end. For the colorful chicken perched on the top of the courtyard wall, which stood out in the predominantly dark Ghost City, it also stayed until the end, maintaining the same posture all the time.

Once the monk’s chant ceased, the golden chicken finally flapped its wings and flew away. Seeing this, Heishan rushed to follow. But as soon as they left the courtyard, the chicken, which seemed no different from domestic fowl, had transformed into a completely different appearance.

A giant chicken of six feet tall, with a halo of golden light on its head, moved recklessly on the streets of the Ghost City. The arrogant chicken marched without fear. The Ghost Creatures coming towards it, regardless of their size and strength, were completely ignored without any attempt to make way.

“This damn creature, so arrogant?!”

Feng Qing’an was surprised to see this chicken, which had acted timidly in his courtyard, being so arrogant in the Ghost City.

The most significant part was that this provocative behavior received all the Ghost Creatures’ avoidance. There was not a single Ghost Creature that dared to test its limit. If any Ghost Creature failed to evade in time, a golden light like a sharp sword would fly out of its halo, instantly piercing the obstructing Ghost Creature.

Feng Qing’an now understood. This creature’s arrogance wasn’t relied solely on the authority of the country’s master, although it was part of reason. It did, however, have some arrogance of its own.

The golden halo above its head was a derivative of its bloodline divine power. Its nature of positive Yang had a near-ideal effect against the dark ghost creatures.

No matter what kind of Ghost Creature, facing its gold light, its Ghost Body was like paper, easily pierced and penetrated. Feng Qing’an did not see a Ghost Creature that could resist.

“Such a sharp golden light!”

Even Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but exclaim. He then let Heishan follow the domineering chicken into its training ground. The chicken glanced at Heishan and didn’t mind as they were already familiar with each other.

Soon, Feng Qing’an saw the chicken’s daily training partner and understood why it had grown so fast even when he did little to train it.

It was a black-shelled centipede, about twenty to thirty feet long and as thick as a water bucket. Each segment of its body was like weapon steel, striking the stone wall with sparks flying and black fog churning, extremely fierce and vicious.

This was an underworld venomous insect!

But in the face of such an opponent, “Golden” did not hesitate at all. It was mighty and vigorous, flapped its wings and charged forward, and the gold wheel behind its head shot out golden lights like a sword. Even though they could only leave a lump of impact on the centipede’s shell, there was no fear in it, instead, its fighting spirit seemed to grow stronger.

Fighting rooster!

Looking at the aggressive and brave chicken in front of him, Feng Qing’an suddenly thought of such a nickname.

“Interesting!”

Feng Qing’an was enjoying the fighting posture of the chicken. Watching it gradually crack the shell of the venomous insect, which was much larger than itself and could tear it into pieces with a single bite, then eat its soft flesh under the shell, Feng Qing’an watched it cruelly kill its opponent!

“Just by devouring venomous insects, it has achieved so much. If I gave it some extra help, I wonder what this creature could turn into?”

Playing the fool is not easily endearing, even though Feng Qing’an knows it’s just a pretense. Yet, upon seeing this authentic side, Feng Qing’an is somewhat moved.

Even so, Feng Qing’an has no intention of letting Donghuang take him back. He wants to see how far this rooster can progress without his assistance.

Besides, Feng Qing’an understands that giving help during tough times is more valuable than adding luxuries during times of abundance. So, he’s not in a hurry.

Time flies by, and as February of the thirtieth year in Yongkang is about to pass, ushers in the arrival of March, the very last day of February to be precise.

From the Feng Family Hill’s school, children carrying their schoolbags in groups of three to five excitedly left the school. No matter when or where, finishing school is always the most elevating event.

“Qing’an!”

The yet-to-leave school Master Zhang called out to a young man who stood out among the crowd – not in a derogatory sense, but because this lad was noticeably taller than his peers. He had the most distinguished stature and handsome appearance in the school, second to none.

“Master!”

Feng Qing’an immediately came forward to pay his respects, particularly obedient. In the eyes of the master and the villagers, this ignorant child, who once boasted about being a master official, has settled down after a few years of development and is now the epitome of the so-called “perfect child from another family”.

“March is nearing, what are your thoughts on this year’s child’s test?”

Master Zhang got straight to the point. Feng Qing’an was taken aback for a moment before he remembered that his elder brother also took part in the imperial examination at about the same age, continuously excelling and eventually achieving the highest honor.

“Does Master wish for me to participate in this year’s child exam?”

“No, it depends on your decision. If you want to participate, I naturally agree, as your knowledge is more than sufficient. But if you want to wait another three years, that’s fine too. You are still very young and don’t need to rush!”

Master Zhang’s tone was calm and sincere, leaving the decision-making to the student in front of him to plan his future. After all, he was quite young, even younger than his elder brother when he took the imperial exam. Therefore, no choice made would be wrong.

“So, the time for the imperial exam is upon us once again!”

Feng Qing’an recalled that year when he, not yet ten, bid farewell to his older brother who was participating in the imperial exam. The scene of their parting was still fresh in his mind, and now, it was his turn.

“Indeed, you can wait another three years. Participating in the imperial exam at your age might draw quite a lot of attention. It won’t be as peaceful as when your elder brother participated!”

Master Zhang considered many factors, whether it was being the younger brother of the Six Dominant Scholar, or participating in the imperial exam at such a young age, both would attract plenty of attention.

This kind of pressure would be significant for a child who was yet to have his adult ceremony, performing well will naturally lead to praise, but if he perfoms poorly, gossip from onlookers is inevitable.

Even some adults may not be able to handle this kind of idle talk, let alone a child. Therefore, Master Zhang felt that his student should wait for another three years when he had a deeper grounding. Even if he didn’t perform well, no one would say anything.

Because by then, his elder brother would certainly have advanced further and wield greater power and influence. With such a relationship, who would dare to gossip?

“Master’s words hold truth!”

Feng Qing’an nodded in agreement. Having such an accomplished older brother is in itself a form of pressure. Perhaps he wasn’t bothered within the village, but once outside, there will inevitably be people comparing him with his brother.

But he did not care about these things, as he had long accepted the fact that in front of his elder brother, he was just a younger brother in every sense of the word, so it did not matter to him.

On the contrary, he was more interested in leaving Feng Family Hill to explore and travel under the pretext of the imperial examination. Life in the village had become increasingly dull over the years. It was time for him to go out and experience the world, with nothing to worry about..
