Chapter 311: Lin Feng

It was not that Lu Ming had noticed any big problems.
It was mainly because he had a lingering feeling that something was off with Lin Feng. He felt that Lin Feng was hypocriticalâŠ
In short, it gave Lu Ming a sense of unease.
However, upon closer reflection, Lu Ming thought he might be overly suspicious.
Since Lin Feng could pass the temperament test, it meant that even if he had some issues, they might not be significant, at least not in the eyes of Jiu Han.
âItâs better to have less interaction with him.â
Lu Ming was not a social butterfly and did not need many friends. In fact, not having friends was preferable to him. So, he decided to stop thinking too deeply about what secrets Lin Feng might have or what kind of person he was.
âIt has nothing to do with me.â
He followed Jiang Weiquan to the Boshi Tower.
At the base of the tower, there were a few rows of standalone courtyards arranged in order, in a beautiful and serene setting.
âWhat do you think of courtyard number 54, Student Lu?â Jiang Weiquan asked.
Jiang Weiquan pointed at the courtyard number 54. Lu Ming asked, âIs this the place for students to stay?â
Jiang Weiquan smiled faintly, âItâs indeed for students, but not for ordinary students⊠In short, you donât have to think too much about these things. Just tell me if youâre satisfied or not.â
Lu Ming immediately nodded, âIâm definitely satisfied.â
The accommodation issue was thus resolved.
Next up was the cultivation and waiting for Jiu Hanâs teaching session the following day.
As he watched Lu Ming walk away, Lin Feng took a deep breath.
A refreshing smile appeared on his face. Soon, he left the examination hall and even left the Three Elements Academy.
He walked into a hotel, went to his reserved room, took a shower, and rested for a while. Eventually, he lay on the couch, and unconsciously, he drifted into a dreamâŠ
His consciousness began to blur and he sank as if he had fallen into an abyss.
Soon, in his dream, Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes.
In front of him, he could see a half-human-high crimson pupil hidden in the shadows. Within those crimson eyes, there was a tall and strong figure whose face could not be clearly seen, standing quietly.
This made Lin Feng take a deep breath. Then, he lowered his head respectfully and said, âMaster.â
âHmph.â
The figure in the crimson eyes made a low sound.
âHow did the assessment go?â
âI passed it smoothly, and 1 have to thank Teacher for the Source Dream Power. Otherwise, 1 wouldnât have been confident enough to pass the temperament assessment.â
The temperament assessment did not just test on the candidatesâ temperament. The Crystal Pillar also had the ability to detect hostility intent. If there were spies from the external factions trying to infiltrate the Three Elements Academy, the temperament assessment served as an insurmountable barrier for them.
For a long time, the Three Elements Academy and even the Hundred Schools of Philosophy had used this move to screen out countless secret agents. However, in this world, there was no perfect method.
Especially after the appearance of a mutant some time ago that specialized in the dream systemâŠ
After Lin Feng finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and added, âHowever, even though Iâm a lucky seedling and have retained my original memories in the dream realm assessment, Iâm only an in-name disciple and not Jiu Hanâs personal disciple.â
The figure in the crimson eyes said, âAn in-name disciple is already not bad.
Old Jiu Han has long stopped accepting personal disciples.â
Lin Feng continued, âHowever, Master, Old Jiu Han made an exception this time. He accepted a guy called Lu Ming as his personal discipleâŠâ
âOhââ
The figure in the crimson eyes expressed its astonishment. After thinking for a moment, he said, âTell me in detail about that personâs characteristics.â
Lin Feng then proceeded to describe the events that had taken place.
Soon, Lin Feng finished speaking, and the figure in the crimson eyes fell into deep thought.
A moment later, he chuckled softly, âThis person is quite interesting. Old Jiu Han has really struck gold this time. Itâs not your fault that you canât compare to him because you truly canât compare to himâŠâ
Lin Feng,ââŠâ
âBut thereâs one thing youâre better at,â the figure in the crimson eyes said softly, âYouâre on the right side, while he chose the wrong side.â
âThis has already determined the outcome of the two of you⊠After all, a dead genius can never be a true genius.â
Lin Fengâs face lit up, â1 appreciate your guidance, Master.â
The figure in the crimson eyes waved his hand, âItâs not so much guidance as 1 have my own plans for taking you in as my disciple.â
âAnd your most important task now is to stay hidden around Jiu Han and not give yourself away. When we, the subversives, attack the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, you might be able to play an important role.â
Lin Feng nodded again, âI wonât let Master down.â
The figure in the crimson eyes continued, âYou can enter the dream and contact me at any time if you lack anything or need assistance. However, you must not enter the dream within the Boshi Tower. Itâs easy for Old Jiuhan to see through it.â
Lin Feng responded, âUnderstood, Master.â
âBy the way, thereâs one more thing. You mentioned that Lu Ming used a communication token to insult a Divine Spirit Realm expert from the subversives, right?â
âYes, thatâs correct.â
âHmm, find an opportunity to lure him out of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, and someone will kill him. This will not only eliminate a competitor but also give you all the credit for it. It will be a way for me to pave the path for you within the organization when you do a favor for the Spirit Realm experts in the organization.â
A ferocious glint flashed in Lin Fengâs eyes.
If Lu Ming were to die, his days beside Jiu Han would be much easier.
âI will definitely handle this matter well and not reveal any flaws.â
It was a good night of sweet dreams.
Early the next morning, Lu Ming arrived at the Boshi Tower and saw Lin Feng waiting there.
Lin Feng still had that same smiling face, but Lu Ming could not help feeling that it seemed insincere.
As a result, their conversation was limited to Lin Feng speaking and Lu Ming listening. Lin Fengâs words were dry and lacked substance, and Lu Mingâs responses were equally dry and unenthusiastic.
After a few minutes of such communication, Lin Feng decided not to push further and simply stood by Lu Mingâs side, not too close, not too far, waiting in silence.
Around 8 oâclock in the morning, accompanied by a thunderous noise, the two large doors of the Boshi Tower opened with a resounding crash.
Jiu Hanâs voice came from inside.
âCome in.â
When Lu Ming and Lin Feng heard this, they walked into the Boshi Tower.
Boshi Tower was over a thousand meters high and was the tallest building in the entire Xuanshui City.
This place was the residence of Jiu Han, a Divine Spirit Realm expert. The interior was personally designed by him, with all the runic arrays personally created by Jiu Han himself.
There were rumors in the outside world that Boshi Tower was a divine artifact in the hands of Jiu Han.
While this claim lacked concrete evidence, it indirectly confirmed that the Boshi Tower was not an ordinary structure.
As soon as they entered the Boshi Tower, a dense spatial power enveloped Lu Ming and Lin Feng. This spatial power contained a trace of Divine Source, rendering the two of them unable to resist. They could only be wrapped up and teleported to an unknown place.
When the two of them stabilized themselves again, they had already arrived at an indoor space that looked like a classroom. Jiu Han was holding a teaching stick and standing in front of the two of them with his hands behind his back..
