The Hooligan in Another World

Chapter 66 The Secret of the Kingdom

"This is all forced by the environment. Lin Feng has always been aloof from worldly affairs and has a calm temperament. If he had developed normally, he would definitely be a talented man who is good at governing the country. You have to know that the royal family has absolute responsibility for what he becomes today," the Crown Prince said with deep emotion.

“Eldest Brother, perhaps in the future, you will need someone to govern the empire, but what the Celestial Kingdom needs now is the War God Family. The reason why Lin Feng has chosen this path is because of the country and the Lin Family. Recently, I just don’t understand why Father seems to be suppressing the Lin Family. Isn’t that a little foolish?” Third Princess Lan’er Wayne said.

“Third Sis, be careful with your words. Our father’s matter isn’t something we can comment on. However, Lin Feng was once my reading partner and my good friend. When I have time, I’ll go take a look.” Lante Wayne said.

“Eldest Brother, I know that you have a good relationship with Lin Feng. However, it is best if you do not meet him at such a time. There are some people who will take the opportunity to attack you,” said Lan’er.

"Yes, I was too impulsive. If I really went to see Lin Feng, some people would take the opportunity to make trouble for me. Haha, many had wanted my position." Wayne laughed at himself.

“Even now, the Kingdom is still fighting and scheming against each other. If the Lin Family really falls and retires from the political stage, they will regret it one day.” Lan’er said hatefully.

“Lan’er, do you know why Lin Feng and I can get along so well? It is because our characters are rather similar. If possible, I do not want to become Crown Prince, just like Lin Feng does not want to become a warrior. Alas, things do not go according to plan, and we have all walked our own paths.” Lante shook his head.

“Brother, please don’t think of it that way. Mother didn’t have the chance to ascend to the throne back then. She hoped that you would become the ruler of the kingdom. Please don’t disappoint her and me.” Lan’er said worriedly.

“For the sake of his responsibilities, Lin Feng has already taken the path he doesn’t like. Why can’t I? Sister, you don’t have to worry. However, I really want to know Lin Feng’s performance during the competition between the two academies.” Lante smiled as he spoke.

“I don’t think he will be too bad. Zhou Guangwu is a talented student of Class Five, yet he was still beaten up so badly. Furthermore, Fourth Bro’s evaluation of him was very high the last time he returned home.”

"Fourth Brother has high standards, and there aren’t many people he thinks highly of. Since Fourth Brother thinks so highly of him, then it can’t be wrong," said Lante Wayne.

“But of course, Fourth Bro made his stance clear long ago, withdrawing from the power struggles. One reason is because of his nature, and the other is because he has a clear view of the situation. In the future, Fourth Bro will be a capable assistant to you.” Lan’er smiled as she spoke.

“Fourth Bro’s decision is a little stressful. If everyone in my Wayne family had thought the same, if everyone in the upper echelons of the kingdom had a bigger picture in mind, then things wouldn’t have turned out like this.” Lante Wayne helplessly explained.

"Eldest Brother, you think too much. Let’s not talk about my father, I look forward to your future achievements," Lan’er said with a smile.

“Do your best. By the way, don’t participate in the competition. Girls aren’t good at fighting and killing. You aren’t like the other imperial sisters, who are engaged. Be careful, or else you won’t be able to get married.” Lante teased with a laugh.

“Haha, Big Bro, don’t make fun of me. I participated in the competition to test my own skills, not to fight or kill. Oh yeah, according to rumors, Mo’er cares a lot about the boy from the Lin Family, but Lin Feng doesn’t seem to care that much,” Lan’er said.

“I can understand what Lin Feng is thinking. Father’s actions some time ago caused Lin Feng to be unwilling to get close to Mo’er, because Lin Feng did not want to make things difficult for Mo’er in the future. Do you understand?” Lante said.

“There are many talented people from the academy this time. It will be very difficult for War Tiger Academy to shine. My second brother seems to have also entered the middle rank of a Magic Warrior,” Wayne Lan'er said.

"Let's not talk about other things. His talent for cultivation is very high, and he has actually reached the middle rank of a Magic Warrior. His goal in this competition must be achieved, because he knows that he is at a disadvantage if he competes with me in the palace. This war with Garnett Kingdom is his chance. I also know, but I can't go out to war like him," said Wayne.

“It must have been Minister Magnus’ idea. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come up with so many crooked ideas,” said Lan’er.

"Not mentioning anything else, Venus Magnus is a qualified teacher. His strategy is unparalleled in the kingdom, and he was very successful in his teaching of magic. If not, he wouldn’t have been able to reach middle rank of a Magic Warrior so quickly," said Wayne.

Lin Feng also knew that there were undercurrents in the empire, but so what? Which force, which big boss could fight against him? Prime Minister Zhou? Minister Magnus? The Emperor? At present, he had to make the best use of his time and practice. He only had one month left. He hoped that his Combat Qi could be improved to a higher level. At that time, there would be hope for him to cooperate with magic.

Lin Tianjiao had already changed out of her luxurious robes and changed into plain, white, tight-fitting clothes. She stood with her hands clasped behind her back in the hall, and Yun Yi stood beside her. The leader of the shadow guards was also present.

“It seems like a simple competition, but it’s different. This time, there’s something big going on. It’s not just a good opportunity for the various factions to get involved in the battle, but also a battle between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince,” said Lin Tianjiao.

“We know that the Second Prince is supported by Venus Magnus, but will the Second Prince have a chance in the competition this time?” asked Yun Yi.

“Yes. The other elite troop of the Empire, the Golden Lion Army, is led by Magnus’s sworn brother. The kingdom allows them to recruit their own troops, and I believe that if the Second Prince is willing to go into battle, there will definitely be a lot of Golden Lion soldiers amongst them.” Lin Tianjiao said.

“Mm. From what I’ve heard, the Second Prince’s mother is a junior sister of Venus Magnus. If he wants to support her, he will do his best. But will the Second Prince be able to obtain the spot?” Yun Yi asked with some doubt.

“The second prince has already cultivated to the middle rank of a Magic Warrior a while ago. With the help of Venus Magnus, obtaining spots isn’t difficult,” said Lin Tianjiao.

There were some things that Lin Tianjiao was clear about, but she could not say it out loud. Venus Magnus and Consort Xu might be siblings, but in truth, their relationship was more than just that. Lin Tianjiao even suspected that there was something wrong with Muting Wayne’s body, and that it had something to do with Consort Xu and Venus Magnus. However, this was not a bad thing, at least she had not been … by Muting Wayne.

“Right. Magnus’ power and influence are now ridiculously great. Not only is he a Minister at court, he is also an Elder of the magician guild. Although Old Paul is the Chairman of the magician guild, generally speaking, the affairs of the guild are handled by a few Elders. Although magi are all arrogant fellows, no one can let Venus off.” Yun Yi said.

“Don’t worry so much about it. As long as Feng’er works hard, the Lin Family isn’t afraid of anyone. As long as Lin Feng has his position, the Lin Family will be able to flourish again. Most importantly, Feng’er has his own way of thinking, and won’t repeat the tragedy that happened to father and big brother,” said Lin Tianjiao.

“Uncle Tie, you’ve been training Feng’er’s personal guards lately.” Lin Tianjiao said to the masked old man.

“Don’t worry, Young Miss. I’ve already started training a long time ago. Unless we go all out, not even a Combat King or a Magic Warlock could kill the Young Master easily.” The shadow guard leader replied.

“Yes, it’ll be up to Feng’er this time. Right, Uncle Yun, how are our forces in the south?” asked Lin Tianjiao.

Yun Yi proudly said, "Don't worry about that, First Miss. When First Young Master left, we made the best use of our time to build Cang Qiong City. Once there is a change, the city will be our base. People there only know about the War God's Family, not the Celestial Kingdom."

"Yes, both trees and people must have roots. Cang Qiong City is the birthplace of our family, and the root of our family," Lin Tianjiao sighed.

As soon as Lin Tianjiao changed out of her clothes, she prepared to break up with the Wayne family. Why was that? The Lin Family had served Celestial Kingdom for generations, and she herself had married into the Imperial Palace. Yet, in the end, Muting’s actions were just too materialistic, too disappointing.

The southwest area of Celestial Kingdom was the birthplace of the Lin Family. Many years ago, Lin Tianhe's grandfather had led dozens of soldiers to fight in that direction and created the peerless reputation of the War God Family.

At the most glorious time of the War God Family, Emperor Carbin Wayne gave Cang Qiong City to the Lin Family. It could be said that Cang Qiong City was the backyard of the Lin Family.

Over the years, the Lin Family had put in wealth and material resources to build Cang Qiong City. Now Cang Qiong City was peaceful, prosperous, and extremely competitive. It was difficult for any force or even the royal family to take over Cang Qiong City.

The people of Cang Qiong City only knew about and believed in the War God, which was the most crucial thing.

As the owner of Cang Qiong City, Lin Feng didn't know all this and was still trying to get a place in the competition between the two academies. He tried his best to cultivate. As he cultivated, he cursed in his heart. "Those who came to a new place either have large number of divine weapons, or some special forces. Well, I have nothing and I can only cultivate hard. If I can bring with me 2 AK47, I don’t have to be so tired."

After Lin Feng finished cultivating, he rushed towards the canteen. When he reached the canteen, he was blocked by a few people.

“What about Young Master Lin? There’s no need to go all out like this,” said one person with a smile.

Lin Feng knew this person. His name was Guan Canglan and he was a hot favorite for the winner of Class Five. He was good at martial arts. His master was not known, and his swordsmanship of Overturning Sword was very strong. Even the students of the Class Six were no match for him. He was generous and forthright, and behind him were his good friends.

“Oh, it’s senior Guan Canglan. What is it?” Asked Lin Feng.

“You may be able to become the champion of Class Four, but don’t ever break through. Otherwise, I won’t show mercy, haha.” Guan Canglan laughed as he spoke.

“Thank you for your reminder. I look forward to sparring with Senior. Unfortunately, even if I want to break through, it will be very difficult in a short period.” Lin Feng cupped his fist.

“Good. I look forward to your performance. I believe that you will bring glory to War Tiger Academy in the upcoming match.” Guan Canglan casually patted Lin Feng’s shoulder.

“Mm. Let’s not disturb Young Master Lin’s meal any longer, haha.” Guan Canglan left with his friends after he finished his meal.

Guan Canglan was outspoken, simple and honest, he was a good man. Lin Feng had a very high opinion of Guan Canglan, but it was a pity that he would have to face the latter if he wanted to take the championship.

In reality, the champion of the competition was almost the champion of Class Six. After all, there was an uncrossable gap in cultivation between Class Four, Class Five and Class Six.

“Why do you talk to him?” asked Hu Wanping.

Guan Canglan said in a somewhat lonely manner, “Don’t judge a book by its cover. If my guess is correct, Lin Feng’s goal is definitely not the champion of the grade. In truth, I do hope that his goal is the champion of the overall championship.”

“Overall championship?” Asked a few people behind Guan Canglan in surprise.
