Chapter 215: Finally entering the academy, a different way of cultivation
Chapter 215: Finally entering the academy, a different way of cultivation (seeking subscription)
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is time to set off for the college to report.
The person responsible for picking up Zhang Lingfeng to go to the academy for practice was still Tiangong from the Hidden Killing Department. He followed Zhang Lingfeng to the provincial capital.
"boom!"
Before leaving, Tian Gong and King Jiangbei faced off in the lake in the backyard of King Jiangbei's mansion.
King Jiangbei restrained his strength.
The lake was surging with waves, as if there had been a magnitude 9 earthquake.
"Cough cough!"
King Jiangbei coughed twice, raised his palm and then pressed it down, and the lake surface immediately returned to calm.
Zhang Lingfeng's eyes widened. King Jiangbei had just nurtured spiritual roots and became a domain walker yesterday, but now his control over the power of heaven and earth has reached this level. He could calm the surging lake in an instant.
Zhang Lingfeng felt that even if his spiritual power reached 20.0, he could not deprive King Jiangbei of any power of heaven and earth at this moment.
Even if his spiritual realm evolved again and connected with more elements of reality, he would not be able to resist the power of his spiritual roots that were naturally in harmony with the power of heaven and earth.
At the same time, he looked at Tiangong with great surprise.
You have to know that Tiangong had just been severely hit by the giant axe of the demon god the night before. He was vomiting blood, vomiting and having diarrhea, and his internal organs were damaged to varying degrees. It can be said that he was dying and his life was hanging by a thread.
As a result, after only two nights, he was able to recover and fight against the King of Jiangbei.
This is just a pseudo spiritual root. If it was a primary spiritual root, or a low-grade spiritual root, perhaps Tiangong would have been able to kill the Demon God Giant Axe the night before.
"The Yangtze River's waves behind push forward the waves ahead. With Mr. Zhao in charge, Jiangbei Province will soon become a third-tier province."
Tian Gong exclaimed.
He knew that King Jiangbei's two coughs were to help him ease the embarrassment. In front of the low-grade spiritual roots, even if they had just awakened yesterday morning, he was not able to deal with them.
What's more, before King Jiangbei conceived his spiritual roots, he was a powerful destructive psychic, so he had a natural advantage.
He was filled with melancholy. When he was nurturing the spiritual roots from the qi sea in his dantian, he was only lacking the last bit of power to assist. If he had one more bit of mental power, perhaps the spiritual roots he nurtured would not be fake spiritual roots, but real spiritual roots, or primary spiritual roots.
Even though they couldn't defeat the Demon God's giant axe yesterday, they were able to ensure the safety of Zhang Lingfeng and the people of Nancheng.
"Brother Tian, thank you for your praise. Jiangbei Province and I still have a long way to go."
King Jiangbei bowed.
He did not look down on Tiangong, a pseudo-spiritual root practitioner, just because he had awakened his own low-grade spiritual roots. On the contrary, he was full of respect for Tiangong from beginning to end.
He knew that what the other party had done for the Great Xia Kingdom and mankind was far more than what he had done now.
"Hahahaha, when Zhang Lingfeng also becomes a Ranger in the future, Jiangbei Province will no longer have to worry about becoming a buffer zone between humans and marine life."
Tian Gong laughed loudly, knowing that Jiangbei Province had a bright future.
After a while, he and Zhang Lingfeng boarded the airship and headed to the academy together. Before leaving, King Jiangbei handed him an important resource subsidy and gave Tiangong some instructions.
Tian Gong was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously.
Zhang Lingfeng couldn't hear the whispers between the two realm masters, but he could vaguely tell that the cultivation resource subsidy that King Jiangbei gave to Tiangong was of extraordinary value.
I don’t know what King Jiangbei’s intention is.
Is he thanking Tiangong for blocking the demon god's giant axe in Nancheng and saving him from a tragic death?
This kindness should be repaid by oneself.
The airship quickly left Jiangbei Province and headed towards the academy.
Zhang Lingfeng only knew that the academy was in a first-tier province of Daxia Kingdom. He had been to Guanghai Province and participated in the national examination in Ocean City. He didn't know whether the academy was also in Guanghai Province.
"Why do you carry so much stuff?"
Tian Gong saw that there were several password boxes next to Zhang Lingfeng.
He felt a little puzzled. He was going to the academy to practice, not to travel or go out for experience, so why did he bring so many things?
Could it be that these are the cultivation resources squeezed out by Jiangbei Province?
He knew that the entire Jiangbei Province was now hoping that Zhang Lingfeng could achieve good results in his training at the academy and become a martial arts student in the continental examination as he wished. It would be best if he could win glory for the Great Xia Kingdom in the continental examination.
"Yeah, why do you bring so many things? Are they the cultivation resources given to you by Mr. Zhao?"
Mingcheng asked somewhat uncomfortably.
Although he failed to advance to the fourth round, he still had the opportunity to practice in the academy.
Looking at the small password box next to them, he and Tiangong were both puzzled.
"They are just some things we need for daily life. There are no important cultivation resources."
Zhang Lingfeng said casually.
"Then open it and show it to us."
Mingcheng didn't believe it.
He knew that the focus of King Jiangbei and others was on Zhang Lingfeng, and they would definitely give all kinds of precious cultivation resources to Zhang Lingfeng. In fact, he could understand and accept the gap in reality, but Zhang Lingfeng's behavior of hiding things and fearing that he would know made him feel uncomfortable.
He was no longer jealous of Zhang Lingfeng, and he also hoped that Zhang Lingfeng could achieve good results in the academy, successfully become a martial arts student in the continental exam, and help Jiangbei Province rise.
"That's...ok."
Zhang Lingfeng understood Mingcheng's meaning. In order to prevent him from thinking too much and allow him to practice in peace in the academy, he had to open several password boxes.
"What do you have a teapot for?"
"Why is there a small stool?"
"This is a radio. It's been out of use for a long time. Where did you get it?"
Tiangong and Mingcheng were full of anticipation and curiosity, but when they saw Zhang Lingfeng's password box, almost none of the things inside were cultivation resource subsidies.
There are very few nutrient solutions, medicinal solutions, dried monster meat, etc.
"Why are you still carrying playing cards and a chess board?"
"Why are there words like 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 written on these little squares? There's even a picture of a little bird on this one..."
Mingcheng couldn't figure it out.
"It's called Mahjong. It helps me practice."
Zhang Lingfeng explained.
"You are wrong. How can you hide something that is helpful for cultivation? How can you use it? Teach me quickly. You have so many cubes. It's not too much to give me one or two."
Mingcheng hurriedly grabbed a handful of mahjong tiles and said angrily.
"Is this thing helpful for cultivation?"
"Zhang Lingfeng, how did you do it?"
Tiangong also looked curious and played the mahjong tiles seriously. As a pseudo-spiritual root expert, he was well-informed, but this was the first time he had seen such a thing.
"Don't be anxious, come and sit down. Oops, we are short of one person!"
Zhang Lingfeng rubbed his hands.
"Tell me what you need."
Tian Gong said seriously.
After a while, Zhang Lingfeng, Tiangong, Mingcheng, and one of Tiangong's men sat around a table.
"Let me explain to you first. This is called a tube, this is called a strip, and this is called a chicken... Come on, now that I've explained the rules to you, I'm going to start throwing the dice!"
The airship went all the way to Guangjing Province and Jinghua City.
It will take about twenty-six hours.
"bump!"
"Bullshit!"
Facing three rookies, Zhang Lingfeng was in great form. There was a charcoal fire burning beside him, a teapot on the shelf, a teacup on the table with a handful of wolfberries in the cup. He was making tea for himself while playing mahjong, and all he needed was a cigarette.
Tiangong and the other two were scratching their heads. Even though they were not weak-minded and their brains worked quickly, it was their first time playing this kind of game and they became more and more addicted. They had long forgotten about things that could help them practice and only had one thought in their minds: they must win, preferably by self-drawing.
In the end, the four of them played mahjong for more than twenty hours on the airship.
Zhang Lingfeng reaped a lot of rewards, but Tiangong, Mingcheng and the younger brother from the Hidden Killing Department were immersed in how to win the game. Recalling the scenes of playing mahjong with Zhang Lingfeng, the three of them had many opportunities to win the game, but were intercepted by Zhang Lingfeng and lost many cultivation resources to Zhang Lingfeng.
Zhang Lingfeng became the biggest winner. He not only obtained cultivation resources, but also earned lying flat points.
When the airship flew to Jinghua City and landed at the academy's airship landing field, Tiangong stood at the door and said goodbye to Zhang Lingfeng and Mingcheng, and then gradually went away under the gaze of the two.
"How should I play mahjong to improve my strength? It's strange. Zhang Lingfeng doesn't seem to be lying. Could it be that there is something wrong with my intelligence? Why is it getting weirder the more I play? I wonder if Zhang Lingfeng has noticed it?"
Tian Gong said to himself.
He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, on which were drawings of the appearance of each mahjong tile. He planned to go back and have someone make a few sets for him so that he could study them carefully.
A genius like Zhang Lingfeng is highly praised, so he must have some good points.
As a quasi-doer who only possesses pseudo spiritual roots, I have already lost to others in terms of spiritual roots, and I must not fall behind others in my learning attitude.
You have to understand what he says, the secret to improving your skills in playing mahjong.
……
After entering the academy, Zhang Lingfeng and Mingcheng were assigned a suite and lived together.
"It is worthy of being a first-tier province. It is truly a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery."
Zhang Lingfeng stood at the window and looked outside. He found that although there was no blue sky and white clouds in Jinghua City, the air quality was obviously several levels higher than that of Jiangbei Province. Here he could even see lawns and some low trees.
You can even see some flowers, fruits and vegetables planted on the land on both sides of the river, which do not need to be covered by sheds.
"Mingcheng, don't you want to come and see the scenery here?"
Zhang Lingfeng saw Mingcheng sitting in the corner of the room, holding a piece of paper, thinking hard.
"What, you're messing around again?"
Mingcheng couldn't help but say.
"Ahem, well, playing mahjong is of no use to you."
Zhang Lingfeng was speechless and couldn't help but remind him. "It doesn't matter if it's useful or not, I'm not blind."
Mingcheng snorted coldly.
Zhang Lingfeng knew very well how he improved his strength along the way. If playing mahjong could not improve his strength, would Zhang Lingfeng bring mahjong to the academy?
There can't be anyone who would use the time spent in the academy for entertainment!
Mingcheng would never believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"All new students, assemble in classroom one immediately."
Suddenly, a voice came from the sky.
"The Walker."
Zhang Lingfeng discovered that the sound was not a broadcast, but a special vibration formed by the walker through the power of resonance between heaven and earth. The vibration could even penetrate into everyone's room, as if someone was standing in front of you and talking.
"Classroom No. 1, let's go."
Mingcheng did not dare to delay when the academy teacher called him. He quickly put away his mahjong notes and ran to classroom number one.
There are two to three hundred new students.
They all arrived at the academy almost at the same time today.
After hearing the instructions, the corridor outside was filled with the sound of new students running. Having just arrived at the academy, no one dared to be negligent, let alone disobey any instructions from the academy teachers.
Zhang Lingfeng followed the crowd slowly and walked all the way to classroom number one.
Teacher number one, very grand.
It's right next to the house where they live and can be seen at a glance.
Zhang Lingfeng fell behind the crowd and saw several college teachers standing on the roof of classroom No. 1.
They stood side by side, looking at the group of new students running to the classroom hall. All the new students knew that the teachers of the academy were watching them.
They all displayed their skills, some catapulted, some leaped, some turned into flowing sword shadows, some rushed into the classroom as fast as a tiger, using all their strength, hoping that what they did would attract the attention of those teachers.
Some new students who were able to fly through mental power even circled around and flew into the classroom through the window.
"Zhang Lingfeng."
"quick!"
Liu Chuan and Lin Chunchi swept past Zhang Lingfeng one after another. In order to attract the attention of the academy teacher, the two actually fought, with sword energy and knife energy raging all the way.
He tore a hole in the crowd.
"Whoosh!"
Fu Kejun, Changshanhu, Huyancheng, Zhuang Lifan, Liu Yang and other familiar faces rushed past Zhang Lingfeng. Some of them urged Zhang Lingfeng, while others sneered, as if they wanted to avenge their previous shame in the academy.
Zhang Lingfeng remained indifferent and walked slowly towards classroom No. 1.
Since the purpose is to attract the attention of the teachers in the academy, then falling at the end and walking behind everyone is also a means. This behavior happens to meet the requirements of lying flat.
As soon as they received the assembly order, they were so eager to rush to the front, as if they were afraid of being punished by God if they were late. Zhang Lingfeng really couldn't understand why.
Even if you are delayed or late for something, the teachers will not do anything to you. They can't just expel you from the academy.
They are all so crazy, is it really that serious?
"Zhang Lingfeng."
Suddenly a voice came from behind.
It turns out there are people who are slower than him.
"Master Qin."
Zhang Lingfeng was surprised. It turned out to be Qin Qianyu.
As expected of a descendant of Qin family, he was not startled when a deer appeared on his left.
This kind of calmness, the ability to plan and have everything under control, is something that people can't help but praise.
"good afternoon."
Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but say hello.
"Fuck you, if you are eliminated from the academy and cannot become a martial arts student in the continental exam, I will never reconcile with you."
Qin Qianyu snorted coldly.
Qin Wanrong secretly activated the Nantianmen magic array and burned the divine light talisman to save Zhang Lingfeng's life. Her punishment has been issued. Not only have her cultivation resources been revoked, she has also been confined to the Qin family and is not allowed to go out within three years.
Now, the only person who can restore Qin Wanrong's freedom and continue to receive subsidies for cultivation resources is Zhang Lingfeng.
So when he saw Zhang Lingfeng again, Qin Qianyu was filled with anger. If it weren't for Qin Wanrong, he really wanted to cut Zhang Lingfeng on the head.
"Uh!"
Zhang Lingfeng was speechless.
Randomly, he saw Qin Qianyu jump up, quickly disappear from sight, and enter the hall of classroom No. 1.
"Master Qin."
In the classroom hall, screams of new students were heard, and everyone stood up to greet them, giving the best seat to Qin Qianyu.
Zhang Lingfeng saw that there was no one around and the teachers standing on the roof were still looking at him, so he had to quicken his pace and run towards the classroom hall.
As the second place in the national examination.
The imagined scene of being supported and admired, with countless people standing up to welcome him after seeing him, did not occur.
Only Liuchuan Lin Chunchi Fu Kejun and several other second-tier martial arts students who had successfully advanced to the final round with his help were waving and greeting him.
The rest of the martial arts students, to varying degrees, looked at him with hostility and provocation in their eyes.
Zhang Lingfeng realized that his brilliant performance in the national examination did not convince everyone present. On the contrary, after everyone entered the academy, most people present, especially the martial arts students from first- and second-tier cities, felt that with the help of the academy, they could overtake him and replace him to become martial arts students in the continental examination.
"Sit here."
Liuchuan has already reserved a seat for Zhang Lingfeng.
Zhang Lingfeng went over and sat with Liu Chuan and Lin Chunchi.
After a while.
When the three teachers from the academy entered the classroom, the scene immediately became quiet. Everyone sat up straight and faced the three of them with their best spirits.
When the three of them looked at the crowd, they all wanted to release all their aura fluctuations, hoping to be seen at a glance in the crowd.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, all three teachers frowned.
All eyes were looking in the direction of Zhang Lingfeng.
Liu Chuan and Lin Chunchi, who were sitting on the left and right of Zhang Lingfeng, both looked nervous and held their breath.
"Zhang Lingfeng, what are you holding?"
one of the teachers asked.
"Oh, walnut."
Zhang Lingfeng replied.
He didn't expect that turning two walnuts in his hands would attract the attention of the teachers in the academy. He realized that it was more conspicuous to turn the walnuts with white gloves on. He should take off the gloves next time so he wouldn't be noticed.
“Put away the walnuts.”
The teacher scolded.
In all his years of teaching at the academy, this was the first time he saw a new student sitting with his legs crossed and a walnut in his hands. How could this be so improper?
"Oh."
Zhang Lingfeng silently put the walnuts away.
"Grandstanding!"
Hu Yancheng cursed in a low voice.
Zhang Lingfeng instigated a group of second-tier martial arts students to throw him out from the sixth round. He has been brooding over this and vowed not to be a human being if he doesn't take revenge.
"The martial arts student who just spoke, get out."
The strict academy teacher said angrily.
Hu Yancheng was shocked, as if he was being stared at by a tiger. He stood up nervously and said in a trembling voice, "Teacher, I was wrong."
"go out."
That teacher left no room for negotiation.
"Oh."
Hu Yancheng walked to the door with a depressed look on his face and stood there.
Everyone was silent. They had heard that the teachers in the academy were very strict, but they didn't expect them to be so harsh. If they whispered, they would be expelled from the classroom.
Fortunately, I was able to stand at the door and listen, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss.
"I still don't believe I can't cure you."
Pei Haicheng snorted coldly.
Having been a teacher in the academy for so many years, he knew that these martial arts students who were able to enter the academy to practice were top-notch talents in the local area. They were always arrogant and looked down on others. If he didn't teach them a lesson, it would not be easy to discipline them in the future.
Especially a first-line martial arts student like Hu Yancheng.
Thinking of this, he looked at Zhang Lingfeng again.
He could call out Zhang Lingfeng's name at a glance, so he had naturally paid attention to Zhang Lingfeng. A martial arts student from a fourth-tier province, who got second place in the national exam and even broke the Qin family's swordsmanship, must be very proud in his heart.
This can be seen from the speed at which he walked towards the classroom just now.
I guess you already know how powerful I am by now.
As a result, he saw that Zhang Lingfeng's eyes were shining and he looked at him with surprise. There was no fear in his eyes. It was more like he had discovered a treasure and he couldn't wait to be driven out by him.
