Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 507 - 147: This Master Must Be Acknowledged
If Zhang Lingfeng is an alien demon beast in disguise, Ku Xuanhe has to give an explanation.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Lingfeng looked at the vice-dean with excitement.
Although it was his first time seeing the vice-dean, Zhang Lingfeng knew, as an academy student, that the academy had three vice-deans and one great dean.
The vice-dean in front of him, whom he had seen in the academy’s profile, was named Lu Jin.
He was also a powerful cultivator at the Qi Refining Realm, and who knew how much Dao Origin Power he had mastered. If he could refuse this person, the Coasting Along Value gained would definitely be astronomical.
In the future, achieving a Heaven and Earth Harmony Index of one hundred percent perfection was not impossible.
"I want you to cultivate with peace of mind and not run outside the academy before you become a Martial Dao student in the continental examination."
Lu Jin was not in a hurry to take Zhang Lingfeng as a disciple.
As the vice-dean, he had his own methods of training.
Zhang Lingfeng didn’t care about becoming a Martial Dao student in the continental examination. He seemed indifferent but was actually a proud person.
Plus, with his Dantian Sea of Qi at one hundred percent perfection, if his arrogance couldn’t be subdued, it would not be easy to win him over in the future.
"I have no objection to how the academy educates him, but I promise you that what I said will always count."
Ku Xuanhe vowed.
As the chief of a first-tier province, his identity, power, and status were so high that Zhang Lingfeng should understand unless he was a fool.
In front of Lu Jin, he was full of confidence.
"Thank you, Mr. Ku, thank you, vice-dean."
Zhang Lingfeng nodded with a grin, but inside, he felt a bit let down. Must he become a Martial Dao student in the continental examination for Ku Xuanhe to take the initiative to accept him as a disciple?
The two came primarily to confirm whether Zhang Lingfeng’s Dantian Sea of Qi was indeed a hundred percent perfect and to thoroughly investigate whether he was an alien demon beast in disguise.
In the end, both received satisfactory responses.
Then, they both left together without leaving Zhang Lingfeng any priceless cultivation resource subsidies, as if they were only responsible for investigating Zhang Lingfeng’s true situation.
Zhang Lingfeng was feeling quite frustrated.
The two arrived at the precise moment when Wang Defa was preparing to take him as a disciple, scaring Wang Defa so much that he didn’t dare to take him as a disciple, causing him to lose a wave of Coasting Along Value for nothing.
"Zhang Lingfeng, what did the vice-dean and they say to you?"
Wang Defa appeared again.
He did not know that Zhang Lingfeng’s Dantian Sea of Qi was one hundred percent perfect, but seeing Ku Xuanhe and Lu Jin come together, he estimated the Dantian Qi Sea Value of Zhang Lingfeng must be above 95.0.
"Nothing much, just asked me a few simple questions. By the way, Mr. Wang, what did you want to tell me before?"
Zhang Lingfeng still didn’t give up.
"Nothing, just a pity."
Wang Defa waved his hand.
"Sigh, indeed a pity. I’ve always wanted to be closer to Mr. Wang, but Mr. Wang seems to disagree with me."
Zhang Lingfeng also sighed.
Wang Defa was stunned, staring at Zhang Lingfeng.
Zhang Lingfeng looked straight at him without dodging, his face full of excitement and anticipation.
Wang Defa quickly glanced around.
Confirmed that Ku Xuanhe and Lu Jin were not there.
Thinking it over, he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Lingfeng, would you be willing to apprentice under me?"
"The vice-dean and Mr. Ku told me not to become anyone’s disciple, alas, a pity, Mr. Wang, I must go, sorry."
Zhang Lingfeng shook his head, patted Wang Defa on the shoulder, and took the lead in walking out of the detection room.
[You refused to apprentice under Wang Defa, embracing the Coasting Along path to the end, gaining 52,231 points of Coasting Along Value.]
The moment he stepped out, these words appeared before his eyes.
Zhang Lingfeng long knew that guiding Wang Defa to say that sentence and Wang Defa suddenly saying it himself were vastly different in effect.
But more than fifty thousand points of Coasting Along Value were not too shabby.
It was better than nothing.
Wang Defa stood alone in the detection room.
Zhang Lingfeng’s response didn’t strike him as a problem, but it made him so angry that he punched the wall and cursed, "Early wouldn’t do, late wouldn’t do, but they had to come at this time, those two old coins."
In the following days, Zhang Lingfeng looked no different from usual, staying in classroom number three and cultivating with Qin Qianyu and the others.
However, every day when he returned to his dormitory, there would be an extra bottle of Spiritual Spring Water on his desk, a whole bottle, not just a potion-sized amount.
There were also two additional books.
One was about how to awaken the spiritual root from the Dantian Sea of Qi, and the other was about how to transform Qi Sea Power into pure spiritual power through the spiritual root once awakened.
Zhang Lingfeng used them as pillows, placing them at his bedside.
As for the bottle of Spiritual Spring Water, he drank it like mineral water every day, following a three-point-one-line routine, first going to classroom number three to cultivate, then reporting to Wang Defa, and finally returning to his dormitory to play mahjong with a female robot.
Aside from the upgrade in resource subsidies, life wasn’t much different from before.
Of course, the way people looked at him changed as well.
The stories of Zhang Lingfeng tearing apart a Demon God in the Great Radiation Zone, teaming up with Yuan Gang to slay the Demon God Giant Axe, and even snatching the Black Wind Demon Lotus from the Black Spider Octopus King and eliminating a great threat to humanity had already spread throughout the academy.
Liu Yang, Zhuang Lifan, Huyan Cheng, who originally didn’t take Zhang Lingfeng seriously, were now deflated like balloons.
Not convinced by this turn of events, they even privately challenged Zhang Lingfeng to a fight.
Zhang Lingfeng agreed to their challenge but demanded that they play fight the landlord with him for three consecutive nights.
The three took turns.
After three days, Zhang Lingfeng restrained his strength, delivering a gentle punch that shook the trio’s Dantians and nearly caused their Seas of Qi to collapse.
Since then, the three regarded Zhang Lingfeng as a presence akin to Qin Qianyu.
And on this day, Qin Wanrong regained her freedom, having her previously revoked resource subsidy reinstated.
