Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Beating Xu Zihao
â`
âHow is this possible? This canât be true. Xu Zihao, with a strength of 120,000 jin, was defeated in one move?â
Many students shouted in disbelief, finding it hard to believe the scene before their eyes.
Among the Inner Academy Disciples, although Xu Zihao hadnât reached the Martial Master Realm, his strength was undoubtedly top-tier below that realm.
But now, in front of Lin Feng, he was utterly defenseless.
âIt must be that Xu Zihao was careless,â some students said.
...
Many nodded. They didnât believe, or didnât want to believe, that Lin Feng had the power to instantly defeat Xu Zihao.
After all, Lin Feng had only joined the academy for less than half a year.
To possess the power to instantly defeat Xu Zihao in such a short time wasâŠ
The older students felt ashamed as well.
Had they wasted years of their time? Were they really not as good as a new student?
âAh, punk, youâre seeking death, youâre seeking deathâŠâ Xu Zihao roared in anger.
He came from a distinguished family and had always been a person held in high esteem.
When had he ever been trampled underfoot by anyone?
But today, Xu Zihao, the direct heir of the Xu Family, was stepped on in front of so many people.
This was something Xu Zihao found hard to accept.
Xu Zihao felt unprecedented humiliation, his eyes turning red with fury as he glared bitterly at Lin Feng, cursing loudly, âPunk, youâre dead for sure. I guarantee it. Youâre dead this time. I will make your death ugly, make you regret going against me, Xu Zihao.â
âHmm? You dare threaten me even in my hands? Youâve got some nerve.â
Lin Feng looked coldly at Xu Zihao, grabbing his neck and lifting him like a chick.
âPunk, youâd better let me go now, or Iâll make you regret coming into this world,â Xu Zihao laughed sinisterly.
Slap!
But, Xu Zihaoâs response was a loud slap.
Lin Feng slapped Xu Zihaoâs face hard.
Xu Zihao was stunned by the slap.
He never expected Lin Feng would dare to slap him.
The onlooking students were equally dumbfounded. Initially, they thought that with things escalating so far, Lin Feng would find a way for Xu Zihao to back down without harboring deep grudges.
But now everyone realized they were gravely mistaken. No one expected Lin Feng to dare slap Xu Zihao like this.
Without holding back any respect.
âYou dare slap me?â Xu Zihao roared with a voice full of rage.
âDare to be so insolent in my hands, who else am I supposed to slap if not you?â Lin Feng looked coldly at Xu Zihao. âYou think I donât know who you are? So what if youâre the direct heir of the Xu Family? If you rile me up, Iâll slap you all the same.â
âFine, fine, fine. Punk, just you wait. Iâll make you regret the stupid decision you made today.â Xu Zihaoâs face was full of sinister expressions.
âIs that so?â
Lin Feng chuckled coldly. âXu Zihao, the academyâs rules mean I canât kill you, but I wonât let you off easily. Otherwise, any random person would dare jump around in front of me. Now, slap yourself ten times, and Iâll spare you. Otherwise, Iâll show you the power of your grandpa.â
âWhat? What? What?â Xu Zihao roared like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. âPunk, who do you think you are? How dare you ask me to slap myself ten times. Youâve offended me, your death day is near, and still, you dare threaten me, Xu Zihao.â
âGave you a chance, but you donât know how to cherish itâŠâ Lin Feng sneered, slapping towards Xu Zihao again.
Slap slap slap!
Slap after slap followed.
Left and right, fiercely striking Xu Zihaoâs face.
Xu Zihaoâs face swelled up from the slaps.
âAh ah ah, punk, you dare slap me, youâre seeking death, youâre seeking death. Iâll make your life worse than death,â Xu Zihao cursed venomously.
Lin Feng wore a cold smirk on his face.
The more Xu Zihao cursed,
the harder Lin Feng slapped.
After dozens of slaps, Xu Zihaoâs face was nearly torn apart by Lin Feng.
Many students watching this had their mouths twitching violently at the scene.
This guy was way too ruthless.
Thatâs what many students thought of Lin Feng.
Even a young master from a prestigious family like Xu Zihao could be treated like this.
One had to admit, Lin Fengâs audacity earned considerable admiration from many students.
Many students, seeing Xu Zihao being slapped half to death by Lin Feng, felt a surge of excitement in their hearts.
Xu Zihao and the like from prestigious families, relying on their status from one of Jialan Cityâs top ten families, acted extremely arrogantly in the academy, thus were unpopular at Jialan Academy. Seeing Xu Zihao slapped nearly to death, many were jubilant, as Lin Feng did what everyone wanted to do but dared not.
âSpare me, spare me, I was wrong.â
Xu Zihao began to plead, the previous toughness and ruthlessness gone, replaced by deep fear and unease.
He trembled all over, looking at Lin Feng with eyes full of both hate and fear.
âWerenât you just threatening to make my life worse than death? Chickened out now?â
Lin Feng looked at Xu Zihao coldly.
âItâs my fault, please spare me,â Xu Zihao pleaded.
âWhat a wimp, taking only that many slaps before begging for mercy. Remember, donât jump around in front of me again, or I wonât forgive you. Now scram.â
Lin Feng directly threw Xu Zihao out.
With a thud.
Xu Zihao landed on the ground in a pathetic state.
Lin Feng didnât glance at Xu Zihao again, turning away into the Cultivation Room.
âLin Feng, Iâll make your life worse than death.â Xu Zihao cursed venomously.
The Cultivation Room was simply furnished, with only a stone bed.
However, the spiritual energy in the Cultivation Room was extremely rich, reaching an astonishing âsixty times.â
No wonder it cost a million gold coins a day.
Lin Feng sat cross-legged on the stone bed, activating the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique, beginning to absorb natureâs spiritual energy.
Streams of spiritual energy surged into Lin Fengâs body, transforming under the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique into powerful Ancient Dragon Elephant Power, nourishing Lin Fengâs body.
Time flew by quickly.
In cultivation, the years went unnoticed.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
During this half month, Lin Feng stayed in the stone room cultivating.
With half a monthâs seclusion, Lin Fengâs cultivation made rapid progress.
Boom. A mountain-shattering force erupted within his body.
The power within Lin Fengâs body underwent an earth-shattering transformation.
His Physical Body Power surged wildly, rising from the original 32,000 jin directly to 64,000 jin.
When the Three Devouring Martial Souls were activated, Lin Fengâs strength reached 192,000 jin.
And Lin Fengâs cultivation also successfully broke through to the Martial Artist Ninth Level.
âHalf a monthâs hard work finally paid off.â A smile appeared on Lin Fengâs face.
In half a monthâs time, Lin Feng used up all his reserves but gained huge rewards.
He walked out of the Cultivation Room and into the outside, where students were coming and going in the Cultivation Tower.
As soon as Lin Feng emerged from the Cultivation Tower, someone exclaimed, âThat kidâs out.â
âFinally outâŠâ In the distance, Xu Zihao shot a venomous glance at Lin Feng, then turned to look at the young gentleman beside him.
This person, in white robes, was tall and handsome, his face like polished jade. Though standing right next to Xu Zihao, he emitted no sound in breathing.
A breath without a sound, a return to simplicity. This indicated that the young gentlemanâs cultivation had one foot into the Martial Master Realm.
âThat guy is Lin FengâŠâ Xu Zihao said.
âGood, finally showing yourself. Letâs go meet this kid. I want to see if he really has Three Heads and Six Arms.â The white-robed gentleman revealed a cold smile.
