"Hello Principal, hello Master Zhuge, I have a bit of a misunderstanding with Lin Chengfeng, I hope Master Lin won't mind."

Ling Feng assumed Lin Qiying wanted to question him, so he willingly softened his stance. Being a junior, as long as he admitted his fault, Lin Qiying would likely let it go.

"Your spear technique is impressive, your talent remarkable. Chengfeng and Qiu Kui's loss to you was not unjustified."

Lin Qiying spoke generously.

"Thank you for the compliments, Master Lin. Actually, I've always admired you, especially your Lone Wolf Saber Technique. I always felt it was refined from battles atop mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Honestly, I've grown fond of this saber technique, but I'm not sure if my physique is suitable for its cultivation."

Ling Feng said.

Upon hearing this, everyone was momentarily stunned.

Wang Dashan and Marquis Zhuge looked at Lin Qiying with envy, while Qiu Kui and Lin Chengfeng felt extremely anxious. What does Ling Feng mean by this? Could it be that he wants to become Lin Qiying's apprentice, their junior disciple?

"Haha, if you're interested, I can teach you a few moves."

Lin Qiying couldn't help but laugh.

Ling Feng is so outstanding. It would be untrue to say that he was unwelcome. Ling Feng has already cultivated a spear skill to the Third Transformation, and perhaps in a few years, he will become a Master of Gun Technique. Additionally, Marquis Zhuge intends to teach him the Life-taking Linked Spear, so he doesn't dare act rashly.

"Thank you, Master Lin. I will definitely visit you when I have the opportunity."

Ling Feng knew the advantages of drawing out the big fish and set a bait, leaving an impression on Lin Qiying, hoping he would eventually be taken as a disciple, similar to Marquis Zhuge.

"Alright, alright. Later I'll have Principal Wang send you the address. You are welcome here anytime."

Lin Qiying smiled.

Feeling more acknowledged than by Marquis Zhuge, since Ling Feng had an interest in learning saber techniques from him, while Marquis Zhuge wanted to take Ling Feng as a disciple, but was refused.

For a moment, the matter of Qiu Kui and Lin Chengfeng's defeat was completely forgotten by Lin Qiying.

"Ling Feng, Master Zhuge has come around, whether you acknowledge him as your mentor doesn't matter. As long as you're willing to cultivate the Life-taking Linked Spear, he is open to you anytime. Just see when you have time to come and connect with Master Zhuge."

Wang Dashan laughed.

"Alright, thank you, Master Zhuge. I'll find an opportunity to learn a few moves from you."

Ling Feng nodded.

It wasn't the time to refute others, and saying something polite wouldn't affect his coasting.

Moreover, Marquis Zhuge was indeed good to him.

"You can come anytime, as long as you're willing to learn, I can teach you anything. I guarantee that in eight years... no, five years, you'll become a Master of Gun Technique."

Marquis Zhuge declared excitedly.

"Thank you, Master Zhuge, I'll find a time to visit you again."

Ling Feng nodded.

"Good."

Marquis Zhuge didn't expect the conversation to go so smoothly.

"Ling Feng, let's leave it at that then."

Wang Dashan was satisfied, having successfully made a connection.

"Wait, Principal, are you planning to take on an apprentice?"

Ling Feng hurriedly asked.

He remembered that Wang Dashan was heavily injured, unsuitable for dragging things out, hence directly asked.

"An apprentice, who?"

Wang Dashan was puzzled as to why Ling Feng asked this.

"Do you think I'm suitable?"

Ling Feng asked.

Upon hearing this, Wang Dashan froze, clearly annoyed, not understanding why Ling Feng considered him.

Even Lin Qiying beside them couldn't comprehend.

Although Wang Dashan was like them, a Bone Realm expert, his skills evidently weren't at their level, and his Combat Power was also significantly weaker.

"Uh... Ling Feng, I have some things to attend to. Let's leave it at that for now."

Wang Dashan felt a stirring inside, not understanding why Ling Feng was interested in him, but in front of Marquis Zhuge, he didn't dare say anything of the sort. If he became Ling Feng's master, Marquis Zhuge would likely not take it lightly.

But thinking of his limited time, having such a remarkable apprentice before passing would indeed allow him to die without regrets.

Thus Wang Dashan felt a stirring inside.

He found an excuse to send Ling Feng a message.

"If I were to consider you suitable and wanted to take you as an apprentice, what would you think?"

Within less than ten seconds, Ling Feng replied via voice: "Dream on!"

"Damn!"

Wang Dashan couldn't hold back from cursing, feeling a pain in his chest as if his wound had reopened. Just as he was about to scold Ling Feng, he suddenly noticed Marquis Zhuge standing in front of him with an angrily darkened face.

"Old Zhuge, let me explain."

Wang Dashan realized that his thoughts had been seen through by Marquis Zhuge.

"Humph, dream on, you wish!"

Marquis Zhuge, hands behind his back, walked away briskly, bursting into laughter after a dozen steps: "Hahahaha! Old turtle, you dare to dream on!"

"You..."

Wang Dashan clutched his chest, truly wishing to have a video call to curse Ling Feng, but fearing Ling Feng might get angry and refuse future cultivation with Marquis Zhuge, he started to soothe his emotions while holding onto the wall to leave.

"No Coasting Along Value?"

"Seems like voice messaging tricks are ineffective."

Ling Feng realized that refusing to become Wang Dashan's apprentice did not yield any Coasting Along Value, appearing that while matters offhanded or lacking face-to-face inquiry, even voiced refusals don't earn Coasting Along Value.

A while later, he returned to Future City District, finding the area bustling. The property's leader, Liu Jinxi, led the staff in a cheerful ruckus, celebrating a middle-aged man successfully awakening his Flesh Phase after three years.
