Chapter 167 - 30: Teacher Yan, Would You Like to Take on a Disciple?

Yan Fei’s mind kept thinking about Ling Feng.

He felt it was necessary to talk to Ling Feng, acknowledging that his previous tone was indeed inappropriate in front of a high school Martial Dao student who could cultivate the Golden Sand Body Tempering Technique to transformation. He needed to recognize this and readjust his attitude.

Besides, the Dharma Hall must continue to be open to ensure Ling Feng can always come to cultivate.

"Hey, Teacher Yan, where are you going?"

Huang Ling called out.

"He’s going to find Ling Feng."

Chen Duling replied.

"Why go find Ling Feng? You’ve finally formed a Sea of Consciousness and have the potential to become a Mental Telekinesis Master. Isn’t that more important than Ling Feng?"

Huang Ling said angrily, feeling that Yan Fei was underestimating Chen Duling.

"Ling Feng was just here for an examination too; he is now a Flesh Realm Martial Artist."

Chen Duling explained.

"I know, didn’t he defeat Master Lin’s female disciple, Qiu Kui? His Combat Power seemed to have reached around 80.3. Given his age, that’s indeed remarkable, but you’re about to become a Mental Telekinesis Master, and your power will soon surpass Ling Feng’s. You will become the most dazzling Martial Dao student in South City, and barring any accidents, this year’s high school exams should see you representing South City and Jiangbei Province in competing with all Martial Dao students."

Huang Ling excitedly grabbed Chen Duling’s hand, knowing her daughter was the best.

Even she was a bit surprised that Chen Duling could form a Sea of Consciousness in the senior year, with the potential to become a Mental Telekinesis Master; this talent was even more extraordinary than hers.

"Mom, the test result for Ling Feng is a Combat Power of 118.9, and Physical Fitness of 25.23."

Chen Duling reminded.

"That’s not such a big deal. Once you enter the Divine Sect, you will soon... wait, what did you just say... Ling Feng’s Combat Power is how much?"

Huang Ling was indifferent at first, then abruptly sat up in shock, asking incredulously.

"Combat Power 118.9, Physical Fitness 25.23—this is Ling Feng’s recent test data."

Chen Duling repeated.

"Impossible, did Ling Feng take drugs or something? Not long ago, his Physical Fitness was only about 11.0."

Huang Ling, as a Mental Telekinesis Master with extensive connections, had already heard about the battle between Ling Feng and Qiu Kui. She was incredibly shocked to learn Ling Feng could defeat Qiu Kui twice in succession. She didn’t expect that not long after, Ling Feng’s Combat Power would break the hundred mark, and his Physical Fitness would reach 25.23.

Yet Chen Duling’s next words left her thunderstruck.

"He didn’t take any potions; he just cultivated the Golden Sand Body Tempering Technique to transformation."

Chen Duling said.

"Body Tempering Technique transformation, this... how is it possible?"

Huang Ling was left gaping.

"Transformed to the minor completion stage, with qi and blood flowing like a gentle stream during operation, the body automatically jade-like—a testing process both I and Teacher Yan saw clearly."

Chen Duling patiently explained, knowing the information was shocking.

"How... did he do it?"

Huang Ling’s mind was buzzing, as Ling Feng’s emergence was breaking her understanding.

...

"Ling Feng is currently safe. Rest assured, I will do my best to ensure no harm comes to him."

The Shadow replied to the message, then looked at Ling Feng with intense interest.

The killing of the cobbler by Ling Feng had been sealed off by the Martial Hall, known only to its personnel and the Hidden Kill Department.

However, today his examination results, showing changes in his Combat Power, quickly alerted the relevant officials of the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance.

For this, Hidden Kill issued an order—if danger arises, a life for a life may be necessary.

The recipient of the order, the Shadow, expressed no resentment.

He saw in Ling Feng the possibility of humanity defeating alien races and repelling extraterrestrial beings.

Thus, he picked up his fishing rod again, tailing Ling Feng to the Jiulong River to fish.

Soon enough, he saw the figure of Yan Fei.

"A bunch of foolish guys."

He couldn’t help but sigh.

Feeling that for a Body Tempering Master, Yan Fei’s vision was somewhat lacking.

But his role was merely to ensure Ling Feng’s safety and not to interfere with Yan Fei’s interactions with Ling Feng.

"Ling Feng."

On the way, Yan Fei stopped to buy a new set of fishing gear, then cast his line near Ling Feng with a smile to greet him.

"Hello, Teacher Yan."

Ling Feng stood up to greet him.

Yan Fei was a Body Tempering Master who had cultivated many talents and contributed much to humanity, and Ling Feng always held deep respect for him.

"When did you cultivate the Golden Sand Body Tempering Technique to transformation? Why didn’t you tell me so I could celebrate it for you in advance?"

Yan Fei asked, a bit thick-skinned.

As Ling Feng’s teacher, he felt it was a neglect on his part not to have timely detected Ling Feng cultivating the Golden Sand Body Tempering Technique to transformation.

"I broke through a while ago. I didn’t think it was necessary, so I didn’t mention it."

Ling Feng casually replied.

"Your talent is extraordinary and your potential limitless. Cultivating Skills and the Body Tempering Technique to transformation hints at a boundless future. The teacher misunderstood you before and said some harsh words; don’t mind them."

Yan Fei smiled.

"Rest assured, Teacher Yan, I know you meant well for me."

Ling Feng naturally understood.

"Ah, earlier I didn’t quite understand why you would refuse Master Zhuge’s offer to take you as a disciple. Now I finally get it. With your natural gifts, even without Master Zhuge’s guidance, you could independently cultivate any Skill to the Ultimate. You must now feel that cultivating the Spear Technique to the Fourth Transformation and forming Spear Momentum should not be difficult, right?"

Yan Fei said.

"Uh... I didn’t think like that. Skill transformation requires gradual accumulation and step-by-step cultivation; wanting instant success, it’s not that easy."
