Chapter 54 The New Mentor
The express-flying maglev train passed through the energy shield of Lan City and landed smoothly on the platform in the lower city.
Jiang Feng and the others got off the car.
"Go back, everyone." Sun Hao stopped in his tracks, looking as if he had aged more than ten years in just a few days. He said, "Don't forget to report to the special task force tomorrow."
Jiang Feng stood at the back of the crowd, glanced at Sun Hao with a complicated expression, but ultimately said nothing and turned to leave.
After returning to the mansion via the subway, Lin Lu had not yet returned, so Jiang Feng tidied up by himself and then went to Liu Sujun's place first.
After a few days, the enforcement booth was still filled with the smell of smoke.
He shared his observations with the two law enforcement officers.
"Your cultivation speed is truly terrifying..." An hour later, after listening to Jiang Feng's story, Chu Gonghua couldn't help but click his tongue twice.
"Donglin No. 13 Middle School... the top student below the Spirit Bone Realm, and then promoted to Spirit Bone... tsk tsk, I suddenly have a feeling that your future might be more than just the Meridian Opening Realm!"
He took a deep drag on his cigarette and said sincerely, "Amazing."
Liu Sujun, who was standing to the side, was also surprised to find that the high school student she had found had such talent, and she was somewhat dazed.
As for Fang Xiao's death... Jiang Feng deliberately concealed the matter of that grandmaster, so the two law enforcement officers, who were used to seeing too many deaths and deaths, only sighed and did not investigate further.
"By the way, Sister Liu, how's Ruan Ruan doing? Is the Voodoo Cult still making any moves?" Jiang Feng asked.
Liu Sujun snapped out of her daze and said seriously, "It is said that the skeleton priest will be going to Jiangcheng soon, and Ruanruan has been able to move around more freely recently. She has attended classes normally the last two times."
Jiang Feng's heart stirred slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Understood."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Jiang Feng took his leave.
Before going back, he went to check on the contaminated area again.
After several major cleanups, there are very few aberrations of level 4 or higher in the game recently, so he gave up on the idea of stacking passives.
He returned home and practiced the "Infernal Heart Sutra" all night, raising the "Blessing" of Infernal Hell from 95% of the initial level to the final level before stopping, washing up, and going to bed.
.........
Early the next morning, at Donglin No. 13 Middle School, in the special class.
Sun Hao hadn't arrived yet, and the students sitting in their seats gathered in twos and threes, discussing among themselves.
"It's been so long since I've been back to school. Why didn't Mr. Sun arrange for us to go to his martial arts gym today?"
During the few days that Sun Hao was away, friends from the martial arts school were arranged to substitute for him.
"Who knows? But I heard that Teacher Sun came back yesterday."
"Ahhh!" someone cried out, "Does that mean our good days are over?"
"Hmph." Ding Xiuqi snorted after hearing this and sneered, "Teacher Sun isn't here, so you just practice casually in class. Don't you know that in the path of martial arts, if you don't progress, you regress? This isn't for him to see, it's for yourselves."
Ding Xiuqi's words were correct, and since he had recently advanced to the seventh level of Body Tempering, the students he lectured only blushed and remained silent.
"Swish—" a sound.
Jiang Feng pushed open the classroom door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the classroom, he spotted Zhang Ruanruan sitting in the corner as if she were invisible. Without thinking, he sat down in front of her.
Upon seeing this, Ding Xiuqi and the other two transfer students from Tianyuan were stunned for a moment, and then their expressions became somewhat displeased.
"This kid...?" A handsome young man next to Ding Xiuqi asked in confusion.
Chen Lin, like Ding Xiuqi, also came from Tianyuan, and was at the sixth level of Body Tempering, possessing spiritual bone aptitude.
Previously, all three of them had wanted to befriend Zhang Ruanruan, but they were met with her aloof attitude and had to give up in disappointment.
Jiang Feng ignored everyone's stares and plopped down on the floor.
At the same time, Luo Feng and Yuan Guannan also entered the classroom.
As the class's little sun, Luo Feng had a good relationship with everyone in the special class. When he returned, they all crowded around him, curiously asking about what he had seen and heard on his trip.
Jiang Feng then turned to look at Zhang Ruanruan, who looked up and responded.
"what?"
Zhang's soft, porcelain-like voice rang out, and then her gaze lingered on Jiang Feng for a moment before she said with some surprise, "It's only been a few days, but your aura has become so much stronger? It seems you gained quite a bit from your trip to Suzhou."
The last time the two met was at Liu Sujun's Enforcement Pavilion, when Jiang Feng was at the third level of Body Tempering and had the aptitude of Xuan Bone.
He has now reached the fifth level of Body Tempering and possesses spiritual bone aptitude.
Jiang Feng felt a surge of inexplicable pleasure, but he still asked, "You've been promoted too?"
Previously, the difference in their cultivation levels was too great for him to perceive, but now that he is a martial artist at the fifth level of Body Tempering, he can naturally observe the faint water-like fluctuations around the other party.
"Hmm." Zhang Ruanruan nodded slightly. "When I met you that day, I was already at the sixth level of Body Tempering. I think... I should be able to reach the seventh level before the monthly exam."
"Hiss." Jiang Feng gasped.
Hextech's enhancement allows him to advance faster than others, but Zhang Ruanruan is a pure talent monster, and also very cunning.
"Tell me about your trip to Suzhou?" Zhang Ruanruan's cold expression slowly melted as she asked curiously.
Jiang Feng smiled again and recounted the events of the past few days.
Not long after, on Luo Feng's side—
"What?!"
"The top student from Donglin High School... defeated a martial artist at the seventh level of Body Tempering!"
"And they even obtained a Spirit-level Marrow Cleansing Agent, advancing their Spirit Bones?!"
Among the crowd, all the special team members looked at Jiang Feng in disbelief after receiving the information.
Ding Xiuqi, Chen Lin and the others also had complicated expressions. Even they did not expect that the exhibition would actually produce a bottle of spirit-grade marrow cleansing agent!
You have to understand, even in Tianyuan, that kind of thing is an extremely rare material that only the top scorer in the monthly exam can obtain. How could this kid possibly get it?!
The atmosphere in the classroom became heated, and everyone was so shocked by the information that they were almost speechless.
at this time,
With another "swishing" sound, the classroom door was opened.
A woman whom no one had ever seen before walked in.
She looked to be about thirty years old, wearing a dark red tight-fitting martial arts uniform. She was extremely beautiful, but her narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes revealed an aura that made everyone feel a little scared.
Everyone held their breath.
The woman slowly walked onto the podium, her cold, beautiful eyes sweeping downwards, and began to speak:
"Hello everyone in the special class, I am your new tutor, Fang Ruo. I will be leading your classes for the next year."
Upon hearing this, everyone except Jiang Feng and his two companions, as well as Zhang Ruanruan who had learned the complete information, was once again in an uproar.
"A new mentor? What about Professor Sun?"
"He just got back, why the sudden change of teacher?"
"Wait... and why hasn't Fang Xiao come back yet?"
"Holy crap, I didn't even notice until you said so. Yeah, why didn't I see Fang Xiao this time?"
Whispers arose from the audience, and Luo Feng and the others lowered their heads in unison, while Fang Ruo ignored them.
The school naturally wouldn't let ordinary students know about Sun Hao and Fang Xiao's affair. Lancheng and Sucheng are so far apart, as long as the information is blocked, it won't spread and affect the school's reputation.
only......
Fang Ruo's identity is special; she is none other than Fang Xiao's... biological aunt.
Her gaze swept subtly over Jiang Feng, Yuan Guannan, and Luo Feng in the audience, a hint of resentment flashing deep within her cold, beautiful eyes.
What right do you have to be here?!
What gives you the right to be here?!
How dare you show up here?!
Sun Hao, that good-for-nothing who couldn't even protect his students, certainly deserves to die, but you people who came back calmly stepping over Xiao Xiao's corpse are even more unforgivable!
This is unfair! This is unfair! This is unfair!
Do you think that just because the school has blocked the news, you can continue on this open and honest path of martial arts with a clear conscience?
Dreaming! Dreaming! Dreaming!
You... all deserve to die!
