A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and soon it was time for Feng Jiutian and the elders of the alliance to open the tower as agreed.

Several elders arrived at Feng Jiutian's residence early in the morning. The elder in the lead asked first, "Miss Jiutian, are you ready?"

Feng Jiutian nodded.

Seeing this, the elder stopped talking and gestured for Feng Jiutian to follow him.

The others from the Royal Academy also followed Feng Jiutian. They were supposed to return to the Royal Academy three days ago, but because of Feng Jiutian's plan to enter the Phoenix Tower, they had to postpone their trip.

No one objected to this, after all, the Royal Academy had been bullied by the other three academies in the Four Nations Tournament for so many years, and if it weren't for Feng Jiutian, this situation might have continued indefinitely.

Aside from the students, even some mentors regard Feng Jiutian as their idol.

Feng Jiutian was unaware of her high status in other people's hearts, but with so many people seeing her off, she still felt a little awkward.

In her past life, she had risked her life countless times on missions, but she had never enjoyed such treatment.

The elders of the Alliance led Feng Jiutian and his group towards a grand hall. After entering the hall, the elders activated the mechanisms set up in all directions, and soon, a huge black hole appeared before everyone's eyes.

Feng Jiutian had thought that the Phoenix Tower would be a tower, but now it seemed that this so-called Phoenix Tower, like the training ground she had visited before, existed in another space.

The elders were all pale-faced; activating the Phoenix Tower was a considerable drain on them.

The leading elder said, "Miss Jiutian, once you enter this black hole, it will lead you into the Phoenix Tower!"

Feng Jiutian nodded and took a step forward.

"Nine Heavens!"

Ruohan and the others couldn't help but call out to her.

Feng Jiutian was not used to this kind of parting scene, and his face was slightly stiff. He could only turn his head to look at them.

Ruohan patted Feng Jiutian on the shoulder: "You are the strongest among us. Remember, you must come out alive!"

Qianghuan and Fengzhi stepped forward, their eyes both red: "Jiutian, you must come out alive!"

Ji Xiao's throat moved twice, and finally she uttered two words: "Take care!"

Feng Jiutian scratched his head: "Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. Take care, everyone!"

After leaving those words, Feng Jiutian turned around and strode into the black hole.

Phoenix Tower, you inspire both fear and longing. Let me, Feng Jiutian, see for myself what kind of place you really are!

"Rustling! Rustling!"

Amidst a patch of tall wormwood, several rustling sounds suddenly rang out.

A moment later, a pheasant with bright plumage ran out, its sharp, inward-curving beak stained with a faint trace of blood.

Its two little eyes darted around, occasionally looking up, full of alertness towards its surroundings.

Suddenly, a figure pounced on the pheasant from behind the tall grass. The pheasant was prepared and raised its long claws to run away, but the person was faster than it.

"Keng!"

A cold glint flashed on the blade, and the pheasant's head was severed in one stroke. Its body lurched forward a few steps before crashing to the ground with a thud, convulsing and spurting out large amounts of blood.

The figure was dressed in black, with a blade of grass dangling from her mouth. A few withered leaves clung to her hair. She put away her dagger and muttered to herself, "This place is too weird. Even a regular pheasant is so hard to find. It took me a whole day. If I hadn't brought plenty of rations, I would have starved to death!"

As she looked at the pheasant's death, her lips twitched slightly. If the animals here weren't so ferocious, she wouldn't have been so bloody and violent as to cut off its head with a single stroke. She remembered when she first came in, she had only cut the pheasant's throat, but the pheasant's sharp beak had pecked at her hand, causing her discomfort for many days.

A transparent figure floated out from her body, looking around with a hint of worry in his eyes: "This is only the first level. These animals aren't even magical beasts, yet they're already so difficult to deal with. I'm afraid..."

The woman spat out the grass she had been holding in her mouth, grabbed the pheasant from the ground, plucked and rinsed it, and said nonchalantly, "Since we're already here, we might as well go up and give it a shot. Besides, if you push me too far, I'm not one to be trifled with!"

This person and spirit are none other than Feng Jiutian and Xuanjizi.

Feng Jiutian has been inside the Phoenix Tower for a full week. She originally thought the Phoenix Tower would be a building, but she didn't expect that after entering, it would look exactly like a primeval forest.

The grass here is taller than a person, and the trees are so big that it takes four or five people to encircle them. Although the animals here are not magical beasts, they are all incredibly fierce. Just like this pheasant today, it took Feng Jiutian a whole day to catch it and fill his stomach!

Jiuyao appeared out of nowhere, carrying a lot of wild fruit in her hand and two rabbits tucked into her clothes. She casually tossed the two rabbits to Feng Jiutian, saying with disdain, "Rabbit tastes much better. Those scruffy chickens are so awful. Why did you catch and eat those scruffy chickens?"

Feng Jiutian was somewhat helpless. The rabbits here were completely different from ordinary rabbits. They were incredibly fast, and even if Feng Jiutian tried her best, she couldn't catch them. Moreover, she couldn't use spiritual power or magic here. What could she do? She was also helpless!

Jiuyao looked at Feng Jiutian with great mercy: "Alright, alright, what I caught is what you caught, let's eat together, but it's a deal, I want to eat the rabbit leg!"

Feng Jiutian quickly finished processing a pheasant and two rabbits, then set up a fire. Her experience as a special forces mercenary in her previous life gave her considerable experience in wilderness survival.

After the two had eaten and drunk their fill, Jiu Yao patted her belly contentedly. She had long ago had the foresight to secretly put a lot of seasonings into Feng Jiu Tian's ethereal space before he set off, and now they were finally coming in handy.

Looking at the remaining rabbit meat, Jiuyao couldn't help but say, "Next time, don't waste your time and effort catching those pheasants. I can catch the rabbits!"

Feng Jiutian lay on the ground, looking up at the sky, without answering.

She caught pheasants not just to fill her stomach, but more importantly, to train herself.

When she first arrived, it was almost impossible for her to catch the pheasants here, and she always ended up in a sorry state. But now, she can track them silently and seize the opportunity to kill them with a single blow.
