There wasnât a single cloud in the sky over the square at the moment. Dharmaraja took off his goggles and threw them aside. His head was covered in sweat and he gasped for breath as he bent forward with his hands on his knees.
After these three punches, Dharmaraja was now absolutely clear on one truth â the gap between his and Ling Zhenrenâs strength was way too big; it already couldnât be described as a moat. Instead, they were clearly separated by a sea!
A particular saying put it best:
you, Zhenren, are Zhenren; you, the master, are the master (1)
âŠ
Dharmaraja was thoroughly convinced. âSenior Ling is really too strong⊠Iâve lost!â
He couldnât help sighing; it wasnât just any ordinary gap between them. His explosive power had been raised to its full extent in the ten-layer godly thunder inheritance. Its devastating pressure had made Immortal Toya sweat; standing on the side, he hadnât been able to clearly see Dharmarajaâs moves at all. Yet somehow, the punch had been stopped, just like that.
Furthermore, Ling Zhenren had just easily and casually raised his hand, and in the blink of an eye had neutralized this fierce attack.
Dharmaraja thoroughly conceded defeat; when he came back to his senses, he realized that his whole body was enveloped in a faint and soft golden light, like a godly robe. ââŠWhatâs this?â
âBefore your last punch, Senior Ling covered us with the protective golden light of his Sage Body,â Immortal Toya explained; watching the battle from the side, he had seen everything clearly. âOtherwise, given the impact of your punch just now, you wouldnât just have been unable to break Senior Lingâs Golden Body, you would also have become slag from the backlash.â
When Dharmaraja heard this, he was moved. The rumored Senior Ling was not only powerful, he was unexpectedly also so considerate⊠he was practically a warm man (2) , wasnât he?!
Dharmaraja couldnât help the surge of emotions in his heart. If he was a girl, he could probably fall in love with this Senior Ling!
âYouâve had your fight, are you happy now?â Immortal Toya gazed at Dharmaraja with his arms crossed, and looked like he had enjoyed the show.
Dharmaraja nodded his head and said, âSenior Ling and Brother Toya, rest assured. Since Iâve already made you a promise, just leave the repair of the magic blade to me. When I go back later, Iâll work overtime to restore it!â
Immortal Toya looked at the ruins of the square and sighed. âBy the way, Dharmaraja, youâve damaged this place to this extent, is that really alright?â
âItâs not open anyway; I can fix it very quickly.â
After he said this, Dharmaraja fixed Immortal Toya with a slightly complicated gaze, and he then heaved a sigh. âI really envy you, Brother ToyaâŠâ
Immortal Toya: â???â
Lightning Dharmaraja: âOriginally, I had always thought that you were the most handsome in our group, but after seeing Senior Ling today, I find that heâs also very good-looking⊠the most important thing is that Senior Lingâs boyfriend meter is off the charts; when he was fighting me, he still remembered to create a golden light form to protect you.â
Immortal Toya: ââŠâ
Dharmaraja patted Immortal Toya on the shoulder and heaved a deep sigh. âI wish the both of you happiness!â
Wang Ling: ââŠâ
âŠ
It was a proven fact that when two good-looking men stood together, it would indeed cause some unnecessary misunderstandings. Wang Ling felt that his current appearance should be considered average, or to put it simply, ânot too badâ⊠yet this was also considered âhandsomeâ! Wang Ling just didnât understand beauty standards nowadays.
It was only later that he became aware of a serious problem. Actually, the main reason for Dharmarajaâs misunderstanding wasnât him, but Immortal Toya! This was the legendary principle of transference: if you had an average appearance but you were with a good-looking person, then your attractiveness would automatically level upâŠ
This was similar to the mirror principle; some expert had once said that when a person saw their own image in a mirror, they would become thirty percent more good-looking than their usual appearance⊠this was all an illusion created by oneâs brain.
Mm, yes, it was an illusion!
No matter what other people thought, this was the theory which Wang Ling clung to.
For the time being, there was no need to worry about the restoration of the magic blade. Even so, life had yet to settle down.
On Grenade-Throwingâs side, the hawthorn tree was about to break through the soil; the big problem now was whether the owner of the stone ghost mask would show upâŠ
Yet another problem was the unknown whereabouts of the old devilâŠ
But the problem in front of Wang Ling right now was the joint military training which would be happening next week. This was definitely an unprecedented event with six high schools participating in this military training survival drill and schools pairing up to form an alliance.
If it had purely been a spring or autumn outing, Wang Ling would have been able to find various reasons to avoid going. But activities such as military training and farmwork were part of the policy which Secretary Dakang of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Schools had established decades ago, whereby every student was required to gain practical firsthand experience. Their scores would then be included in their college entrance exam grades, and would become a key criterion in determining whether they would be able to graduate or not.
In short, this was something that Wang Ling couldnât escape.
There would be too many people and too many eyes during that time. The three main alliances and all the teachers and students of the six schools would be present. In that sort of situation, working out how to get through the military training survival drill in a low-key way would be a very difficult problem for Wang Ling.

Elsewhere, the old devil who was hiding in his small world was also plotting with the Master of Shadow Stream, Jiang Liuyue.
âTo defeat that Killer Taoist, you must first regain your realm. This isnât urgent for the time being, since time flows differently in this small world. My venerable self brought you here in the hope that you will recover more quickly. After I fulfill my promise to you, I can then carry out my master plan.â
âThanks to Lord Devil Emperor, I do feel much more comfortable cultivating here than in the outside world.â Jiang Liuyue nodded. After these two days, she had reached a further understanding with the old devil.
âYour recovery is one thing, but I have to entrust another thing to you. Staying in your body is not a long-term solution, so Iâm going to create a body. Iâll be using the skeleton of an ancient grandmaster as the raw material for it,â the old devil said with narrowed eyes.
âSo Lord Devil Emperor wants to use this as a base to regenerate the corporeal body? Can it be done?â Jiang Liuyue asked.
âThe principle is similar to using the spirit lotus root to create a body, but the method is a lot more complicated and sophisticated. Iâll need the vitality of thousands of youths to power a large array in order to restore the corporeal body on the skeleton.â
âLord Devil Emperor, you donât have to worry about this. When you spoke to me about youthful vitality the last time, Iâd already thought of something.â Jiang Liuyue nodded. âThe school I mentioned to you before is going to combine with five other schools for a military training exercise. There will be thousands of people then⊠wouldnât these Foundation Establishment students have ready-made vigor for you to use?â
After she said this, Jiang Liuyue smiled coldly and thought herself very clever.
She had once said that she wanted to wash No. 60 High School with blood until nothing and no one was left.
This was a god-given opportunity; not only would this help the old devil regenerate the body, it would also destroy this school at the same time; this really was the perfect scheme to kill two birds with one stone!
(1) This is adapted from a Chinese catchphrase, âyou the master are forever the master,â which is equivalent to high praise.
(2) A âwarm manâ is basically a guy whoâs perfect in all aspects.
