"Who is it?"
Lin Qiying frowned and said.
Lin Chengfeng lay there, arms and legs limp, and no one could see his face clearly.
"It's Senior Brother's flying skateboard."
Unable to control herself, Qiu Kui flipped the person over, and upon seeing his face, she screamed, "Ah, Senior Brother, Master, it's Senior Brother."
Although his face was a bit scribbled on, Qiu Kui could still recognize him.
"What, Chengfeng, what happened, who injured you like this?"
Lin Qiying was furious.
His direct disciple had been injured in Inner Ring City.
"The injuries on his body seem to have been caused by a spear technique."
Marquis Zhuge said.
As a Master of Gun Technique, he could tell at a glance how Lin Chengfeng's injuries were formed.
"A spear technique, could it be..."
Wang Dashan instinctively thought of Zhang Lingfeng, but then dismissed it. How could Zhang Lingfeng, with a combat power of 118.9, possibly handle Lin Chengfeng, who had a combat power of 125.2?
"Who injured you like this?"
Lin Qiying was also puzzled.
Lin Chengfeng went to find Zhang Lingfeng, but came back alone and in this state.
"It was Zhang Lingfeng. I invited him to come here, but he refused. In desperation, I fought him, but unexpectedly..."
Lin Chengfeng was full of shame.
"Unexpectedly, even you lost to him."
Lin Qiying was exasperated at the failure.
"Zhang Lingfeng's combat power is at least 130.0, not the 118.9 that junior sister said. And his spear skills aren't just at the skilled level of perfect unity in power, but at the mastery level. Otherwise, I could never have lost to him, and so terribly."
Lin Chengfeng knew he was in no position to be proud but still wanted to explain.
"But when he was checked, it was clearly only 118.9."
Qiu Kui countered.
"He didn't even use full force. I've encountered the realm of perfect unity in power before. With my saber technique prowess, breaking his defense wouldn't have been difficult. But Zhang Lingfeng's spear technique was solid as fortresses, not a single drop could leak through. I used all my strength but couldn't break his defense. If it wasn't at a mastery level, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death."
Lin Chengfeng said earnestly.
"Master, I know I've embarrassed you, but if Zhang Lingfeng hadn't concealed his strength, and if I hadn't been impatient, he wouldn't have won so easily. Rest assured, once I awaken my Flesh Phase, I will seek him out to avenge this humiliation."
Lin Chengfeng spoke excitedly.
"Silence, still not ashamed enough? If you can awaken your Flesh Phase, can't he? Someone who's cultivated the Body Tempering Technique to transformation will awaken the Flesh Phase faster than you."
Lin Qiying waved his hand as he spoke.
He despairingly discovered that the two disciples he had taught with all his might were no match for a prodigious young talent who didn't practice much.
"Old Ge, you were right. This duel has lost its meaning. My two incompetent disciples can't compete with Zhang Lingfeng at all."
Lin Qiying sighed.
He was wholeheartedly convinced.
A high school martial dao student with a combat power of 130.0, having cultivated spear techniques to the third transformation and the Body Tempering Technique to transformation, had terrifying potential beyond words.
It wasn't a disgrace for his disciples to lose to such a person.
It's a pity, though. If only he had such a disciple under his tutelage.
"At first, when he refused to take me as a mentor, I thought he was insolent. Now it seems it wasn't that he was arrogant or dismissive of me, but rather that I underestimated him and his potential, treating him like everyone else, thinking that as a Master of Gun Technique, everyone would be eager to be my disciple."
Marquis Zhuge sighed, unable to control his emotions.
"Old Ge, although Zhang Lingfeng didn't want to take you as a mentor, you can still teach him spear skills. His usual cultivation attitude is lackadaisical, obviously someone who doesn't like constraints. If he took you as a mentor and trained with you day and night, he'd probably find it unbearable. Maybe that's why he refused to become your disciple, not because he looked down on you."
Wang Dashan explained.
"You're right. I was too impatient before. Let's find another opportunity to talk with him. As long as he can train under my guidance, it doesn't matter if he calls me teacher or not. It's just a hollow title; it's no big deal."
Marquis Zhuge felt it made sense and nodded uncontrollably.
"That's true. As long as he can carry forward your Life-taking Linked Spear, continuously improving and transforming the skill, people will speak of it with respect, and you'll have honor in your lifetime."
Wang Dashan rejoiced.
"Right, I was being narrow-minded. Promoting spear technique for the benefit of human society is the top priority. Old Wang, thank you for enlightening me."
Marquis Zhuge felt enlightened, the weight had lifted from his shoulders.
"I'm glad you think that way. We should find a time to talk to Zhang Lingfeng again."
Wang Dashan laughed.
"No time like the present. Call him and ask where he is now?"
Marquis Zhuge was visibly excited.
"Alright."
Wang Dashan contacted Zhang Lingfeng through his bracelet.
Zhang Lingfeng, on his way back to the Future City District, saw a video light screen pop up on his bracelet. It was Wang Dashan. Zhang Lingfeng respected Wang Dashan and didn't refuse the call.
He tapped to answer.
The two started a video call.
Marquis Zhuge, Wang Dashan, and the others immediately saw that Zhang Lingfeng, carrying fishing gear, was returning to Future City District.
Zhang Lingfeng also saw Wang Dashan, Marquis Zhuge, Qiu Kui, and an unfamiliar old man. After thinking carefully, he realized the man was Lin Qiying.
As a Swordsmanship Master, Lin Qiying was renowned and often appeared on television and the internet. There were also many of his free instructional videos in the Star Realm, which Zhang Lingfeng was somewhat familiar with.
