Chapter 642 Wan Long was Stunned... (Fifth Update)
"Old Wan, be careful, I’m going all out now," Zhu Tao, having fought for a while and feeling exhilarated, suddenly remembered what Lin Feng taught him during their trip to H Country. Wanting to use it, he warned Wan Long, not wanting to accidentally injure him.
"Don’t worry, you can’t hurt me," Wan Long replied to Zhu Tao after hearing that he was going all out. His True Qi was extremely powerful; even if he got hurt, it wouldn’t be serious. Moreover, he wanted Zhu Tao to use his full strength, otherwise it wouldn’t be satisfying.
Zhu Tao didn’t say much more and directly applied what Lin Feng had taught him. His speed increased tremendously in an instant!
"Bang!"
"Bang! Bang!"
"Clang!"
...
The balance in their evenly matched duel was totally shattered in this exchange. Zhu Tao and Wan Long each had their strengths—Zhu Tao in techniques and Wan Long in robust True Qi. That is why they were evenly matched, but once Zhu Tao accelerated, the scales tipped immediately. The advantage of speed allowed Zhu Tao’s moves to reach their maximum potential. After just over a dozen moves, Wan Long called a halt!
"Damn, Old Zhu, your progress is too freakish. This wasn’t much time, but how did your speed increase so drastically... This is too unbelievable, what... what the hell is going on?" Wan Long looked at Zhu Tao, utterly astonished. He could never have imagined such a significant improvement in Zhu Tao’s strength in such a short time. Although it was just a great change in speed, paired with Zhu Tao’s techniques, his strength had multiplied immensely. Just after a dozen or so moves, he couldn’t hold out any longer.
The danger of the situation was clear to him; Zhu Tao’s speed had surpassed his reaction time, and he could only rely on instinct to spar with Zhu Tao. This was too unbelievable; he couldn’t have thought that in just over ten days, Zhu Tao could become so formidable. During their spar, several punches had almost hit him. This was too abnormal; under normal circumstances, how could a person’s speed change so greatly in such a short time? There must be something wrong, there had to be!
"This is all from the trip to H Country. I fought with H Country’s number one master, Park Zefeng, twice," Zhu Tao looked at Wan Long and replied with a faint smile.
"What! Are you serious?" Hearing this, Wan Long was stunned, completely frozen in place. He never imagined Zhu Tao had actually fought against H Country’s number one master, Park Zefeng. How could this be possible? What exactly happened?
"Of course it’s true. It went like this..." Zhu Tao briefly recounted the events that took place in H Country to Wan Long, and gave a simple account of his first encounter with Park Zefeng. Remembering the scene of their first fight, Zhu Tao couldn’t help but feel emotional. Back then, he truly wasn’t a match for Park Zefeng. Despite successfully escaping in the end, thinking about it now still made him break out in a cold sweat.
"My god, Park Zefeng is actually a Middle Stage S-class expert, and you managed to escape from him? You’re ridiculously strong!" After Zhu Tao explained, Wan Long couldn’t help but both laugh and curse, thinking to himself how incredible it was that Zhu Tao had managed to escape from Park Zefeng. He could imagine how tense the situation must have been; if it had been him, there was no way he could have escaped!
But what caught his attention was what Zhu Tao said about their first duel—Zhu Tao was at a disadvantage in terms of speed, which is why Park Zefeng dominated the fight. So how did Zhu Tao improve later on?
"So what happened next? How did the second fight go, and how did your speed improve?" Wan Long asked Zhu Tao, eager to know the details of the second fight between Zhu Tao and Park Zefeng. He was now regretting that he didn’t follow Lin Feng to H Country himself; it would have been great to witness Zhu Tao’s battle with Park Zefeng...
"After I returned from Qingfeng Mountain, I went to find the young master. He then taught me a method to increase my speed. After practicing it for three days and nights, my speed became what it is now. In the second fight with Park Zefeng, I was no longer at a disadvantage in terms of speed, and with the young master’s guidance, I severely wounded Park Zefeng, and then we left," Zhu Tao said, smiling at Wan Long’s questions. Without the method to increase speed that Lin Feng taught him, there was no way he could have defeated Park Zefeng in the second duel. It could be said that his victory over Park Zefeng was entirely due to Lin Feng’s guidance.
Moreover, now that Zhu Tao thought back to when Lin Feng taught him that method, he couldn’t help but marvel. Lin Feng was truly unfathomable, such an alternative use of True Qi, and Lin Feng knew it, which was nothing short of miraculous. Now Zhu Tao looked forward even more to what other amazing things Lin Feng might teach him in the days to come...
"Ah! Lin Feng! What did you say, Lin Feng has a way to increase speed? How... how could this be possible, this...," after hearing Zhu Tao’s words, Wan Long was so shocked that he was speechless, his jaw hanging open, utterly dumbfounded on the spot.
How could this be possible!
Increasing speed to such an extent in just three days!
What method was this, it’s too miraculous!
...
Wan Long’s mind was already at a loss for words to express his amazement toward Lin Feng. He had never dreamed that such a thing could happen in this world. Never had he heard of anything like this in the Cultivation World, where merely three days could elevate one’s speed to an entirely new level. No cultivator would believe this to be true!
This... this is simply too inconceivable!
All cultivators understand one fact, that increasing speed is extremely difficult. It’s linked to the individual’s cultivation spells, and to think of substantially increasing one’s speed in a short period is flat-out impossible, especially after reaching S-level. Wan Long had a deep understanding of this. In this time, he hadn’t stopped searching for ways, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t increase his speed. Under Lin Feng’s guidance, Zhu Tao’s speed had become what it was now in just a mere three days. This... this was truly unprecedented!
This... what kind of method could this possibly be? It’s too miraculous!
Wan Long was very keen to know what method Lin Feng had taught Zhu Tao. It was so miraculous and beyond any believable measure...
"Old Wan, there’s no need to be so astonished. The young master does many miraculous things. Otherwise, why would I willingly follow him to Tianhai? You’ll understand in time. Let me tell you something else—do you know how I became an S-level master? It’s all thanks to the young master’s contributions," Zhu Tao told the stunned Wan Long with a pleased heart. He had long felt that following Lin Feng was the right decision. In the short time of their meeting, not only had Lin Feng made him an S-level master, but he also taught him that incredibly miraculous method to enhance speed during their trip to H Country, allowing him to defeat the renowned middle-stage S-level Park Zefeng. To outsiders, such a scenario was unimaginable. With Lin Feng’s guidance, his future development was sure to exceed everyone’s expectations, including his own...
"What... this..."
Upon hearing Zhu Tao’s words, Wan Long was incredibly shocked. He didn’t know what to say anymore, nor how to express his feelings at that moment. What was happening before him had exceeded the understanding of normal people, even beyond the comprehension of an S-level master like him. He knew Lin Feng was an extremely powerful individual, but he never imagined Lin Feng would reach such an extraordinary extent. This was truly incomprehensible! It was... it was just too defying of the natural order!
Lin Feng... Lin Feng...
In Wan Long’s mind, the name Lin Feng was now swirling around, making everything seem like a dream. It was under Lin Feng’s guidance that he had independently broken through to the S-level, which had already filled him with immense admiration!
Yet, he had not expected Zhu Tao to tell him all this today. Seeing Zhu Tao’s strength improvement, he couldn’t help but believe what Zhu Tao said was true. This... this was indeed beyond words to describe the shock Lin Feng had caused.
Lin Feng... who exactly was Lin Feng?
Lin Feng was just a bit over 20 years old—how could he possibly have such abilities!
This... this was just too incredible. Lin Feng was already like this now, then in the future...
Zhu Tao had been with Lin Feng for such a short time and had undergone such drastic changes. What then should he do for his future...?
...
Wan Long was thoroughly stunned, now pondering on what he should do in the future, not even noticing when Zhu Tao left...
......
After Lin Feng returned home, he had a brief chat with his parents before retiring to his room to rest.
Without further ado, the next morning dawned. He prepared a sumptuous breakfast for his parents; the family enjoyed a warm meal together. Afterward, Lin Feng drove to Yingbo University.
After locking his car, he habitually headed toward the logistics area. To his surprise, before even reaching it, he saw Zhao Jian talking with Ding Wan’er from a distance, which baffled Lin Feng. When he caught Zhao Jian’s words, Lin Feng was left speechless.
Since the start of the school term, Zhao Jian had been living each day as if it was an eternity, especially after learning that Lin Feng was Ding Wan’er’s fiancé. He felt like walking on thin ice, living each day on edge. This oppressive life made Zhao Jian extremely distressed, until he could no longer bear it. Showing up for work early, he waited at the stairwell for Ding Wan’er, intending to ask her to transfer Lin Feng away.
