Chapter 66

A grand battle unfolded.

The students in the Combat Martial Space watched the replay of the battle with rapt attention, especially those who wielded swords, who benefited greatly. Even someone as strong as Li Tong was immersed in the essence of the battle, savoring it and muttering to himself from time to time.

"The final burst of 'Evil Dragon Entanglement' in the battle, what an astonishing sword intent!"

"Strange, I have also fully comprehended Evil Dragon Entanglement, but why is my sword intent so much weaker? Is it because of the difference in the realm of sword techniques...?"

...

The same 'intent' can manifest differently based on different forms.

It's like the difference between sitting and standing while slashing a sword; the power exerted would not be the same. Form and intent are the most basic components of sword techniques, inseparable. The method Lin Feng used was a gradual approach; it might not be favorable at the beginning, and even waste a lot of time, but...

Gradually, after comprehending the sword intent, the path would become increasingly broad.

At this moment, Lin Feng was already immersed in his cultivation.

Inside the high-alloy cultivation room.

"Swish!" "Shout!" Lin Feng held the Gray Wolf Combat Blade, completely entering his own world. The boundless Qi Sea surged, and the blade in Lin Feng's hand seemed to cut through the waves in the sea, carrying a strong sense of defiance. The sword technique seemed to have a soul, feeling incredibly clear.

"Evil Dragon Entanglement!"

"Flying Fish Turn!"

...

The sword intent was astonishing, still continuously improving and enhancing, as if gradually etching out a vague shadow.

At this moment, Lin Feng's world was very simple.

It was all about practicing the sword!

...

Defeat?

Lin Feng didn't care at all.

On the contrary, this defeat was more valuable to him than ten or a hundred victories. The stronger the opponent, the more it could bring out the best in him. Without using the Nine Dragon True Scripture, he could still unleash his strength to this extent, and Lin Feng was already very satisfied.

The final defeat, to some extent, was due to the depletion of spiritual energy.

Although the Earth Spirit, which was originally a thousandth of his dantian, had grown to five thousandths, the heart technique he used to unleash spiritual energy had also improved. The Flowing Cloud Technique was like a straw, and the boundless Qi Sea was like a water pipe. If it were the Nine Dragon True Scripture... it would be like a water pump.

Inside the high-alloy cultivation room, the blade light was dazzling.

The comprehension of sword intent still needed to be consolidated; one cannot treat the potential unleashed in a desperate situation as true strength. Lin Feng was very clear about this. Only through arduous training, repeated and meticulous practice, could the invisible potential be truly transformed into real strength.

When an opportunity comes, one must seize it firmly.

※※※

Who is Xun Zhan?

This was undoubtedly the hottest topic in the Combat Academy at the moment.

His battle with Mentor Yue Meng had become a classic, discussed endlessly by the students, even overshadowing the selection tournament that opened on April 1st.

Under 18, in-school selection tournament!

The top ten will represent the Combat Academy in the Sunset City Under 18 New Star Tournament, to bring honor to the academy and opportunities for themselves. In the past decade, the best ranking the Combat Academy has achieved is only the top eight. In terms of genetic warriors, the Combat Academy is inferior to the Crown Elite Academy and the Sunset City Genetic Academy; in terms of ancient martial artists, the Combat Academy is inferior to the four major martial schools.

It has always been in a middle position.

This was the most headache-inducing issue for the dean, 'Xia Shan.' Looking at this year's participant list, his brows couldn't help but furrow.

"Jin Haochen,初级基因战将 (初级基因战将)."

"Ge Yi,初级基因战将 (初级基因战将)."

"Long Qin,初级基因战将 (初级基因战将)."

...

Out of ten, seven are初级基因战将 (初级基因战将), but there isn't a single ancient martial general.

On one hand, the potential ancient martial generals have been monopolized by the four major martial schools; on the other hand, the cultivation speed of ancient martial artists is indeed slower than that of genetic warriors. Looking at the list of ten who advanced, Xia Shan shook his head helplessly. Even his granddaughter, 'Xia Ling,' a senior genetic warrior, was on the list.

These ten are indeed outstanding in the Combat Academy, but... how would they fare in Sunset City?

"Entering the top sixteen might be the limit."

"To enter the top eight, one must have the strength of a mid-level combat martial general."

"The top four can enter the Huaxia Combat Martial Camp for further training." A glint of light flashed in Xia Shan's eyes, but he didn't place much importance on whether they could enter the Huaxia Combat Martial Camp. This was more important for the Sunset City Genetic Academy and the four major martial schools. However, if they could win first place, there would be a huge reward—

Entering the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum for one day and one night.

This is an ancient relic, not as grand as the world's seven holy sites, but its ability to survive the Great Extinction also means it possesses mysterious power.

Both the Combat Academy and the Crown Elite Academy are eager to get in.

But this belongs to the state.

...

102nd session, Genetic Warrior Division.

"Haha, so satisfying, the Ancient Martial Division sent five participants, but only one made it to the top ten."

"Our leader Long Qin and Miss Ling both made it to the top ten."

"But what's up with Lin Feng, he didn't even fight and lost?"

...

"Who knows, can't take a loss?"

"Shouldn't be, Lin Feng is stronger than Xue Jin, and he should be on par with his opponent."

"Shh, keep it down, can't you see Miss Ling is in a bad mood?"

...

Damn!

This big pervert!

Xia Ling was indeed sulking. For the past two months, she had been in seclusion, training to avenge the kick she received that day. Now, her strength was just a step away from becoming a junior genetic warrior. She originally thought Lin Feng would participate and make it to the final top ten, but who would have thought...

Lin Feng actually withdrew from the competition!

"Big pervert, I will definitely take my revenge, don't think you can hide from me!" Biting her cherry lips, Xia Ling looked both shy and furious. Xue Jin, watching the beauty's changing expressions, felt extremely uncomfortable, wanting to say something but holding back. At the moment, Xia Ling's eyes were only on Lin Feng, and there was no room for him.

Clenching his fists, Xue Jin was filled with frustration.

But, what could he do?

"If I had the strength like Xun Zhan, it would be great..." Xue Jin yearned but felt powerless, filled with deep envy and jealousy. If he could match Xun Zhan and defeat Yue Meng, how hard would it be to beat Lin Feng? Perhaps, he could even win Xia Ling's admiration, gaining both the person and the reward.

Unfortunately, this was just a fantasy.

At this moment, the originally noisy hall fell silent as Mentor Yue Meng's slender figure entered, her mature charm more captivating than Xia Ling. Every week, almost no one in the class would miss Mentor Yue Meng's lessons.

Of course, except for Lin Feng.

"Today is the last class." Yue Meng's lips parted, and her enchanting voice shocked everyone.

The last class?

What does that mean?

Her beautiful eyes swept over the crowd, and Yue Meng said, "Don't panic, the academy will assign a new mentor to take over. I... have personal reasons and need to leave for a while." She smiled charmingly, "Of course, I will wait until after Long Qin and Xia Ling's selection tournament."

"Alright, let's start today's lesson."

"The application and realm of elemental power."
