Chapter 280 Sword, Come
Those days of being slapped hard at the border had made Caelan’s whole temperament steadier and more low-key.
So when people praised him, he mostly only smiled.
Compared with his calm restraint, Tristan’s expressions and gestures were much more exaggerated.
“Our Eli has always been wonderful. Some people may have a few technical tricks, sure, but in the end, they still can’t compare to Eli. You probably don’t know this, but the whole Elven Feast was choreographed by Eli for the Omegas.”
Tristan kept emphasizing how outstanding his younger brother was.
It sounded like he was telling everyone else.
It also sounded like he was telling himself.
At last, he lifted his head and looked toward the distinguished alumni section.
Adrian Whitmore was talking with Caleb there.
Did you see that, big brother?
Eli is wonderful.
I was not wrong.
You were wrong.
You had to be.
While everyone inside the arena marveled at the Elven Feast, Class F, about to enter from outside, inhaled deeply and began handing over their swords and lining up under Julian’s command.
Line up to board the plane…
No.
To board the crane.
They had no idea where King Julian had borrowed it from, but it was a super-S-rank white crane spirit form.
A huge one.
The kind that, once enlarged, could hold everyone in Class F on its back.
Flashy.
So damn flashy.

Finally, the Elven Feast ended in thunderous cheers from the audience and StarNet.
The Omegas took one another’s hands and bowed, then drifted off through the arena’s rear exit.
But even after they left, the shock of that feast lingered in the audience.
To put it simply, everyone was still savoring the previous performance.
They were not expecting much from the next artistic formation.
Even Harper Sloane and General Marston leaned back in their seats, looking rather uninterested.
Only Orion, seated in the center, quietly straightened.
Expectation hid in his deep, narrow eyes.
Frihed
Amid that mood of lingering aftertaste, noisy chatter, or bored disinterest, the scene inside the Abyssal Dome Arena changed again.
The Elven Forest faded.
In the next instant, a boundless sea of clouds surged in like waves of snow.
ہو
Several strange peaks broke through the clouds, steep as if carved from blue jade. On their summits, faint eaves of celestial towers emerged.
That one glance alone brightened the eyes of the audience and StarNet viewers.
Sunlight pierced the clouds, gilding the surging cloud sea with broken gold.
On a floating receiving platform nearby, old pines and cypresses stood proud.
Beneath them, on jade steps, a white-robed fairy as cold as moonlight sat with slender hands resting on a zither.
That scene quickly disappeared into mist.
When morning dew condensed along white jade railings, disciples in different robes began flashing through the immortal mountains and towers like scattered stars.
One or two recited poetry.
Three or five meditated.
‘Immortal music rang in the ear.
Sword dances flew among streaming clouds.
Then an ancient bell tolled through the misty immortal mountains.
A disciple suddenly shouted, “Eldest Senior Brother has returned!”
That cry not only woke the leisurely disciples in the scene.

apart.
The sound of breaking wind was like a swarm of bees beating their wings, gathering into a low roar.
Too shocking.
Countless viewers widened their eyes and marveled at the sword-riding before them.
It was not that they had never seen an Elven Feast.
But sword-riding?
They truly had never seen that.
And not only them.
Finished
Even Noah and the others, who now looked ethereal and beyond mortal dust as they rode swords, had never seen it either.
So their inner monologues were roughly like this:
So high, so high, so high. If I jump down like this, I really won’t fall to my death, right? Wuwuwu…
Mom, the sword is alive. I am flying…
Aaaaah, I can fly. Fck, fck, f*ck, I am diving by myself. Wuwuwu, now I am spiraling into the heavens…
Calm down.
Calm down.
Immortal.
Be immortal.
Cold, relaxed, dignified, compassionate, beyond mortality…
Ah! We are about to go through a cave. What do we do, what do we do?
Dad, bless me. Falling now would be so humiliating….
ہو
Fortunately, no one could hear their collapse or their thrill.
In the eyes of the audience, they were almost too cool to be human.
When the star-points leaped out of the cloud sea again..
