The scene was incredibly silent.
Even Xu Zhiyuan hadnāt expected that Ling Feng could crush Zhou Changqing.
Indeed, it was a crushing defeat.
From the moment their spear techniques clashed, Zhou Changqing was subdued by Ling Feng. After just a few moves, he lost his defense; on the battlefield, facing such a fierce spear technique, Zhou Changqing would have already been decapitated.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other, then whispered among themselves.
"Could his combat power already exceed 30.0."
Ye Xuan thought to herself.
Just a few days ago, her Electric Sparks potential had finally transformed into Thunderbolt Power, significantly boosting her speed, and consequently her combat power broke through to 24.3.
Thus, she was able to be sent to the advanced cultivation class to train along with Chen Duling and others.
Little did she expect to suddenly see Ling Feng move from the Outer Ring City and witness his combat power surge, defeating even Zhou Changqing.
Even Chen Duling found it all incredibly perplexing as she watched Ling Feng.
Her mother, Huang Ling, had once predicted that Ling Fengās combat power limit was around 30.0, but how much time had truly passed and Ling Fengās strength had already surpassed the limit.
"Alright, you two, sit down and rest!"
Xu Zhiyuanās expression was complex.
Suddenly realizing that Ling Feng was coasting along in front of him might not be a problem of cultivation attitude, but simply not taking him seriously. Although he had underestimated him, there was no denying that Ling Feng indeed had the arrogance to back it up.
But people like him need a lesson the most.
Therefore, Xu Zhiyuan decided that from today onwards, heād leave Ling Feng alone, allowing Ling Feng to study if he wanted to, or coast along if he chose, believing that only by experiencing a lesson, would he understand the importance of serious cultivation.
Because of this, during the subsequent classes, Xu Zhiyuan never paid attention to Ling Feng again, and Ling Feng smoothly acquired the coasting along value he desired.
After the class ended.
Ling Feng returned to the Future District.
Chen Duling also lived here, and was extremely surprised at the change in Ling Fengās combat power, informing Huang Ling of the situation that night.
A Catfish Demon storm appeared in the Great Radiation Zone.
The City Lord, top experts from various academies, and many Skin Phase martial artists all went to support. Huang Ling was currently also in the Great Radiation Zone, assisting from the rear as a Mental Telekinesis Master, aiding Wang Dashan and others in slaying the Catfish Demon King.
When receiving Chen Dulingās message, Huang Ling had just finished a battle with Wang Dashan and others, temporarily controlling the trend of the Catfish Demon attacks and effectively preventing the stormās spread.
Upon learning that Ling Feng had defeated Zhou Changqing, whose combat power was 30.0, she was equally shocked, and after a simple reply to Chen Duling, she said to Wang Dashan, "Principal Wang, Ling Feng led his family yesterday to move into the Future District in the Inner Ring City, and today he defeated a martial arts student from the Inner Ring City with a combat power of 30.0."
"Oh."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dashan was somewhat surprised, then smiled and nodded.
"With such rapid changes in Ling Fengās strength, Principal Wang should know the reason, right!"
Huang Ling smiled.
"I donāt know."
Wang Dashan shook his head.
"Even though Ling Feng moved so quickly into the Inner Ring City, and was arranged to study in the advanced cultivation class, Starry Sky University couldnāt accomplish these things in such a short time. So, if my guess is correct, Ling Feng should have awakened his potential, garnering the attention of the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance to receive such treatment. As for what potential, Principal Wang knows."
Huang Ling smiled.
She realized she had not only underestimated Ling Fengās potential, but the last detection result had an error, and upon deep reflection, she thought it might be because Ling Feng didnāt cooperate with her detection.
Wang Dashan was taken aback.
Huang Lingās words made sense; could it be that he overthought it, and Ling Feng had merely awakened his potential rather than possessing a special cultivation talent, thus being sent early to the Inner Ring City for care and protection?
"Potential awakening!"
"It must be so. This guy indeed, if he had cooperated with my mom during the last detection, perhaps he wouldnāt have had to wait until now to move to the Inner Ring City."
"Alas, my mom underestimated his cultivation ability and failed to detect his hidden power, which might affect her reputation."
"I really ought to teach him a lesson on behalf of my mom."
Inside her cultivation room at the Future District, Chen Duling looked at the content of Huang Lingās response, unable to resist clenching her fist.
Huang Ling insisted that Ling Feng must have awakened his potential. As for what potential he awoke, she didnāt know for now, because Ling Feng didnāt cooperate with her last time, leading to the error.
This matter could have major or minor implications.
Chen Duling wanted to stand up for Huang Ling.
She was determined to find an opportunity to talk to Ling Feng.
At that moment, Ling Feng was at home having dinner with Zhang Lei and the others. After moving to the Inner Ring City, not only was the house bigger and better, but the living resource subsidies were richer, as if celebrating New Year every day compared to the Outer Ring City.
The TV was broadcasting news about the Catfish Demon storm in the Great Radiation Zone being blocked by the City Lordās army, and the message that strong humans had slain many Catfish Demon Kings.
Because of this, humans living in South City, whether in the Inner Ring City or the Outer Ring City, felt greatly excited, their cheers heard everywhere.
Ling Feng was also very happy. To celebrate this victory, he logged into Teng Qingshanās game account that night, playing all across the major gaming planes within the Star Realm.
Upon exiting the game planes, a voice that only Ling Feng could hear came from the Star Realm.
[Detected that you possess exceptional cultivation talent, and the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance has specially increased your permission, allowing you two hours daily to enter the Dharma Hall for cultivation, with dedicated instructors to guide your practice. Wishing you a swift opening of the Dharma Aspect.]
"Dharma Hall!"
Ling Feng was surprised.
The Dharma Hall is an advanced cultivation room within the Star Realm system, accessible only to A-level martial arts students or Dharma Martial Artists.
Instructors at the Dharma Hall come from around the world, each one a strong practitioner of Dharma Great Success, and reportedly, every session there is worth tens of thousands.
With his exceptional talent, Ling Feng could freely access the Dharma Hall for two hours every day, reflecting the importance of extraordinary cultivation talent in the eyes of the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance.
Unfortunately, Ling Feng didnāt need such a place for cultivation.
However, he wondered what the coasting along value would be if he didnāt go to the Dharma Hall to cultivate every day after gaining the corresponding permission.
In his view, the greatest value of the Dharma Hall was helping him earn coasting along value, as for how strong the Dharma Martial Artists there were, Ling Feng wasnāt interested.
Early the next morning, a message appeared on his bracelet.
Indicating that in half a month, the final exam would occur, during which he would participate in as an Outer Ring City Ninth Middle School martial arts student.
Ling Feng recalled Wang Dashanās constant expectations for him to achieve first place in the Outer Ring City during the final exams, and given his current combat power, the top spot was already in his grasp.
