"Master, Zhang Lingfeng he..."
Huang Ling looked nervous, especially after seeing Huo Guoqiongâs expression.
"Bring him back."
But instead of the anger she expected from Huo Guoqiong, she heard a resigned sigh.
"Uh... okay."
After Huang Ling left, she began asking around if anyone knew where Zhang Lingfeng had gone.
Like Wang Dashan, Yan Fei.
Upon learning Zhang Lingfeng hadnât attended the Divine Thought Class for cultivation, both were deeply concerned and promised to help find Zhang Lingfeng together.
Realizing Zhang Lingfeng had recently been obsessed with chess, they searched various chess rooms but found nothing.
Until Huang Ling asked around in the Divine Thought Class if anyone knew Zhang Lingfengâs whereabouts, it was Liu Baoqinâs answer that gave Wang Dashan and Yan Fei a direction.
So the two rushed to Victory Park together.
Finally, they saw Zhang Lingfeng sitting in an overcrowded pavilion, battling a chess game with Old Liu.
After dinner, Old Liu couldnât resist returning to Victory Park for a stroll, only to see Zhang Lingfeng engaged in a chess battle with several other elderly men, both sides fully absorbed.
Some idle old men, seeing Zhang Lingfengâs poor chess skills, were anxious on his behalf and offered him strategies, eventually helping Zhang Lingfeng win a few games.
Old Liuâs fighting spirit was instantly reignited.
He also forgot about Zhang Lingfengâs need to practice at the Divine Thought Class.
The two, amid the cheering of old men, battled on the chessboard back and forth. With the help of several old men, Zhang Lingfengâs chess skills soared. Although still not a match for Old Liu, he put up a good fight. With such momentum, he might defeat Old Liu in just a few days.
Thus, he was engrossed in it, and the idea of attending the Divine Thought Class for cultivation was long forgotten, truly coasting along to the ultimate.
This state of self-forgetfulness is different from deliberately skipping the Divine Thought Class. The Coasting Along Value obtained also significantly varied.
"Bang!"
Until Wang Dashan squeezed through the crowd and landed a hand on Zhang Lingfengâs shoulder.
Only then did Zhang Lingfeng snap out of it.
With eyes bloodshot from the heated chess game, he turned to see Wang Dashanâs eyes were even more fierce than his own.
Seeing Zhang Lingfeng hiding in the park and playing chess with a bunch of old men instead of attending the Divine Thought Class, both Wang Dashan and Yan Fei were heartbroken. The moment they saw Zhang Lingfeng, they felt like revealing his divine inspiration.
However, a cold gaze firmly locked them in place.
It was Shadow.
Seeing Zhang Lingfeng lost in chess games with old men, forgetting to attend the Divine Thought Class, Shadow was quite speechless, especially considering how Zhang Lingfeng lost almost every game. He couldnât understand how someone with such poor chess skills could forget the Divine Thought Class for a game of chess.
But even so, he hadnât forgotten the duty of protecting Zhang Lingfeng.
Under the aura of the two, the group of old men in the pavilion realized something was amiss and hurriedly got up to leave.
"Hey, donât leave, the game isnât over!"
Zhang Lingfeng called out.
Old Liu and the others hurried even faster, as Wang Dashan and Yan Feiâs eyes seemed murderous.
[Youâve remained immersed in the chess games, tirelessly coasting along to the ultimate, gaining the All-weather Consciousness Sea Exploration Ability.]
Suddenly, a piece of information appeared before Zhang Lingfeng.
Zhang Lingfengâs eyes widened in disbelief.
All-weather Consciousness Sea Exploration Ability? To think itâs obtained through chess, but then again, considering this coasting exercise consumes the most mental energy, thus gaining the All-weather Consciousness Sea Exploration Ability seems quite reasonable.
