Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 522 - 151: Breaking the Power Balance, Avenge Past Shame
"I have gathered you here today to take this opportunity to spot-check your abilities. I hope this will make you understand how harsh reality can be and help you remember this lesson."
Wu Chunsui said.
The crowd whispered among themselves.
But upon seeing Jiang Nan present, they immediately fell silent.
Lin Shuilong and his two friends looked uneasy, feeling that Wu Chunsui was singling them out.
"Jin Yifei."
Wu Chunsui called out.
"Here."
Jin Yifei quickly stepped forward.
"I previously asked you to oversee Zhang Lingfeng’s cultivation. Now tell me, how has Zhang Lingfeng’s cultivation been? What is his Sea of Consciousness value, and how many thoughts has he awakened?"
Wu Chunsui asked.
"Uh... he’s okay."
Jin Yifei looked bewildered.
He hadn’t paid much attention to Zhang Lingfeng, only knowing that Zhang Lingfeng was the most lackadaisical in the Divine Thought Class, even inadvertently leading Lin Shuilong and the others astray.
Wu Chunsui bringing this up in front of everyone surely means he’s trying to find fault, believing he didn’t supervise Zhang Lingfeng properly.
If that’s the case, he would feel terribly wronged.
"’Okay’ means you don’t know. Now I order you to personally spar with Zhang Lingfeng, test his Sea of Consciousness value. Remember, you two can only use mental telekinesis to attack each other, no other powers allowed."
Wu Chunsui said directly.
Not wasting any words.
"Ah... alright, I understand." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Jin Yifei was caught off guard. What kind of strategy is this? Yet in an instant, he understood Wu Chunsui’s intention. Clearly, it was to embarrass Zhang Lingfeng in public.
Zhang Lingfeng’s recent cultivation attitude must have annoyed Jiang Nan, so Wu Chunsui arranged this scene to have him properly discipline Zhang Lingfeng, humiliating him into reflection.
"Zhang Lingfeng, why are you still standing there?"
Wu Chunsui urged.
It’s not that Zhang Lingfeng didn’t react; he simply didn’t expect that Wu Chunsui would have Jin Yifei test his strength.
Zhang Lingfeng vaguely recalled that Jin Yifei’s Sea of Consciousness value exceeded 30.0, making him a powerful Destruction Mentalist.
He was also a senior student, able to challenge Qin Qianyu.
Even one of the predetermined candidates for the continent’s Martial Dao exam.
Wu Chunsui had him come out specifically to make things difficult for him, which explained why everyone was called here.
It appeared that Jiang Nan was very dissatisfied with him, not willing to let him off easily even after knowing he had become a Four Systems Mental Telekinesis Master.
Or perhaps they didn’t want him to grow arrogant and complacent.
In any case, they wanted to use Jin Yifei to change his cultivation habits, urging him to cultivate diligently and earnestly.
"You said just now we can only use mental telekinesis and not other powers, right?"
Zhang Lingfeng inquired.
"Of course."
Wu Chunsui nodded.
Everyone knew Jin Yifei was not only a powerful Realm Traveler but also had awakened an upper-grade Spiritual Root.
He was one of the most outstanding among the senior students.
If spiritual power were used, Zhang Lingfeng would only be beaten.
Even without using spiritual power, simply comparing mental telekinesis, no one thought Zhang Lingfeng could gain an advantage.
Because Jin Yifei’s telekinesis level was among the top in the Divine Thought Class.
An extraordinary existence.
"Go easy on him."
Wu Chunsui reminded Jin Yifei.
"Understood."
Jin Yifei nodded with a smile.
"Zhang Lingfeng, please!"
He then invited Zhang Lingfeng.
Once again, Zhang Lingfeng’s mind flashed back to when Jin Yifei used mental telekinesis to knock him back from a distance and catch Qin Qianyu’s sword.
Although Qin Qianyu hadn’t used full strength, neither had Jin Yifei.
At that time, he felt Jin Yifei was terrifying, with a Sea of Consciousness value of at least 30.0.
Plus, the other party was an early Destruction Mentalist.
Compared to himself, Jin Yifei definitely knew better how to release mental telekinesis waves with lethal force.
Hence, even though his own Sea of Consciousness value at this moment exceeded Jin Yifei’s, it might not necessarily put him at an advantage.
If he didn’t want to suffer in Jin Yifei’s hands, he absolutely couldn’t hold back.
Moreover, this guy had targeted him from the start, with the Leopard-Head incident still vivid in his mind, which Zhang Lingfeng hadn’t forgotten.
Thinking of this.
Zhang Lingfeng respectfully greeted Jin Yifei with cupped hands.
Jin Yifei returned the gesture with both hands.
Zhang Lingfeng smiled slightly, taking this opportunity to unleash his 41.0 Sea of Consciousness power all at once.
"Buzz!"
The mental telekinesis wave from the Destruction System, like a tangible blade, emerged in the air, shooting directly at Jin Yifei’s forehead.
Zhang Lingfeng felt that as his thoughts released, the destructive intent seemingly concentrated and exploded on Jin Yifei.
He recalled Huo Guoqiong’s words about how the King of North of the River once used a single thought to kill over 2,000 Catfish Demon Kings in one go. Back then, he wondered, even with Destruction System power.
How could thought release instantly slaughter so many Catfish Demon Kings?
Now having become a Destruction Mental Telekinesis Master himself, Zhang Lingfeng clearly saw that upon thought release, the enemy’s hostile aura in his perception became a natural firecracker, his thought being the spark.
It turns out that the so-called Destruction Mental Telekinesis Wave can cause the enemy’s power to lose balance, disrupt their resonance and fusion, causing their forces to clash internally, like self-sabotage.
A buzz, instantly turning into a mist of blood!
This is the terrifying aspect of Destruction Mentalists.
With just a single thought, a swarm of Alien Demon Beasts can be wiped out, making the battlefield value of Destruction Mentalists surpass many Realm Travelers, or even Divine Realm experts.
Because they can use thoughts to wipe out large batches of Alien Demon Beasts, creating widespread extermination.
At this moment, all thoughts were on Jin Yifei.
Zhang Lingfeng saw Jin Yifei’s various forces synchronized by resonance nodes, like locks holding the forces in place.
Zhang Lingfeng sensed that merely breaking any one of these locks would disrupt Jin Yifei’s force balance, wreaking havoc, causing chaos not just within his Sea of Consciousness but potentially affecting his Spiritual Root.
In this urgent moment.
Zhang Lingfeng saw much, thought much, but lacked enough control over his mental telekinesis.
Only knowing to pour it out entirely to erupt on Jin Yifei, he had no intention of killing or crippling Jin Yifei.
He merely wanted to preserve face under Jin Yifei’s assault, to avoid being ridiculed, and if possible, he wanted to gain a bit of an edge, venting for past grievances, embarrassing Jin Yifei.
However, he underestimated his own Sea of Consciousness value.
And the power of being a Destruction Mentalist.
If he were merely a Four Systems Mental Telekinesis Master, even with a value near 50.0, he might not pierce Jin Yifei’s Sea of Consciousness defense, breaking the force balance.
But as a Destruction Mentalist, Zhang Lingfeng’s released mental telekinesis wave not only doubled in power but also naturally disrupted Jin Yifei’s force balance.
Critically affecting Jin Yifei.
This is indeed the most frightening facet of Destruction Mentalists.
Without consciously controlling the mental telekinesis, the moment of thought release can make opponents frantic, their power instantly becoming unbalanced.
"Hmm?"
In an instant, Jin Yifei, who had been poised, hands behind his back, ready to discipline Zhang Lingfeng for Jiang Nan, suddenly had his smile freeze.
At the moment of Zhang Lingfeng’s thought release, he felt his entire body flooded with uncontrollable force, as if being incinerated, with the power within him yearning for self-destruction.
In the nick of time.
He had no time for second thoughts, only knowing to quickly resist with his own mental telekinesis waves, to maintain the balance nodes of his powers, ensuring his aura could unimpededly flow.
He no longer even had the thought of attacking Zhang Lingfeng.
He only sought to solve all immediate troubles, blocking Zhang Lingfeng’s mental telekinesis waves.
Unfortunately.
Though he became a Destruction Mental Telekinesis Master earlier than Zhang Lingfeng and knew better how to release mental telekinesis waves, Zhang Lingfeng’s Sea of Consciousness value exceeded 41.0, surpassing Jin Yifei by a full 7.0.
This 7.0 advantage was enough to bridge Zhang Lingfeng’s gap in force release.
Thus.
In the shocked eyes of the crowd, the formerly confident, smiling Jin Yifei, as if swept by Zhang Lingfeng’s mental telekinesis wave, with a bang, was instantly sent flying, crashing through the training room door, landing on the grass outside, spewing blood uncontrollably.
(Requesting monthly and recommendation votes, having dropped out of the monthly vote rankings, vanished without a trace, seeking everyone’s support to get the book back on the rankings.)
