Chapter 79

Seeing this person, Gan Lin’s pupils clearly contracted, and he said indifferently, "Feng Wu Tian, has the identity jade token arrived?"

Long Chen also looked at the man who had suddenly appeared at the door. This man was probably around twenty years old, or even younger, much younger than Gan Lin, but his strength seemed to be even deeper than Gan Lin’s.

Under the gazes of Long Chen and the others, this handsome man named Feng Wu Tian walked into the martial arts hall. Without a word, he took out five identity jade tokens and turned to leave. As he left, his cold eyes glanced at Long Chen, making Long Chen feel a chill to the bone.

This made him draw in a cold breath.

After Feng Wu Tian left, Gan Lin asked with concern, "Long Chen, are you alright?"

Long Chen nodded and asked, "Senior Brother Gan, I have never met this Feng Wu Tian before. Why does he seem to be full of hostility towards me?"

Gan Lin shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "Feng Wu Tian is the most talented person under Steward Liu. He is nineteen years old and is already at the peak of the Human Core Realm. It won’t be long before he breaks through to the Earth Core Realm. It’s best not to offend such a person, but I’ll tell you this: Huang Fei Yang used to serve Feng Wu Tian, acting as his subordinate. Today, Steward Liu punished Huang Fei Yang because of you, so Feng Wu Tian...”

Instantly, a black line appeared on Long Chen’s forehead.

Because of the horse given by Ling Qing, he had a falling out with Huang Xiang. Because of the injury he inflicted on Huang Xiang, Huang Fei Yang wanted to kill him. And because of the punishment given to Huang Fei Yang, he had also provoked this genius, Feng Wu Tian, who was far beyond Long Chen’s reach...

Thinking about this, Long Chen felt a headache.

“I can’t even deal with Huang Fei Yang, and now Feng Wu Tian has appeared...”

The cold look Feng Wu Tian gave him as he left made Long Chen very uncomfortable, but he knew his strength was inferior. His life was like grass in Feng Wu Tian’s eyes, so all Long Chen could do now was to endure!

“Once I become strong, I will make all those who offend me pay...”

Thinking about this, a fierce light flashed in Long Chen’s eyes. Seeing Long Chen like this, Gan Lin shook his head and said, "Don’t be too impulsive. Not to mention Feng Wu Tian, even Huang Fei Yang is not your match. They are all under Steward Liu, and you’d better not conflict with them. Feng Wu Tian’s potential is greater than yours, and Steward Liu likes him very much. He might even personally cripple you, so I advise you to be honest and go up to apologize. This is not impossible, after all, a man can bend and stretch.”

Gan Lin’s words were like a hammer striking Long Chen’s head. He bit his lip, knowing that for the sake of the Yang family, he had to endure for now.

Seeing that Long Chen was fine, Gan Lin didn’t think much more. He distributed the identity jade tokens to everyone one by one and said, "Try the identity jade tokens according to the method I just explained to you."

Long Chen took the palm-sized jade token. The front of the jade token was engraved with a strange rune, and the back was carved with the name 'Long Chen,' exquisitely. Long Chen held the jade token and used his true qi to sense it, and indeed, a piece of information soon flowed into his mind.

“Name: Long Chen, Affiliation: Outer Clan Qing Clan Qingyang Hall, Strength: Eighth Level Dragon Vein Realm, Warrior Type: Beast Warrior, Dragon Vein Realm Origin Beast Soul: Yellow Rank Fifth Tier Monster, Underground Blood Lizard, Origin: Yuan Ling County Baiyang Town Lord’s Residence Yang Family, Contribution Points: 0.”

"These data will change according to your own changes," Gan Lin explained on the side.

Long Chen then put the identity jade token into his Bag of Holding.

With this token, he was officially a member of the Spirit Martial Family.

By now, Gan Lin had almost finished explaining everything he needed to. He smiled faintly at the few of them and said, "In five days, you will face your first mission. This mission is especially important for you, and you must do your best to complete it!"

"Is the time so urgent?"

Long Chen thought they would be given some time to rest and recuperate. After all, they had just gone through the selection process, and everyone had sustained some injuries. For Long Chen, Huang Fei Yang’s punch had completely taken away his fighting ability. Sitting here now, he was only barely holding on.

Gan Lin nodded and said, "This is your first trial, and it’s also a time to show your loyalty to the Spirit Martial Family. I know you are all injured, and I have prepared...”

Gan Lin took out several medicinal herbs from his Bag of Holding and said, "These are high-grade Yellow Rank Yun Ling Grass, which can nourish the internal organs and heal external injuries. They are enough to restore you to your peak fighting condition within five days. This is your first reward for joining the family!”

With these Yun Ling Grass, Long Chen’s worries were gone. He, like the others, took the Yun Ling Grass and put it into his Bag of Holding. At this moment, Gan Lin took out a piece of sheepskin paper and said with a smile, "Every new member of the family receives a reward, which includes a low-grade Mystic Rank combat technique and ten divine jade. I will give you the divine jade later, but you can first choose a combat technique from this list. If you have any questions about the combat techniques, you can ask me.”

Saying this, Gan Lin handed the sheepskin paper to one of them and then took out fifty divine jade from his Bag of Holding, distributing five to each of the five people.

Long Chen’s current wealth now amounted to eleven divine jade.

Generally, new cultivators at the Human Core Realm would not have more than a hundred divine jade.

“The Spirit Martial Family’s generosity is truly not ordinary. High-grade Yellow Rank Yun Ling Grass, ten divine jade, and most importantly, a low-grade Mystic Rank combat technique!”

Long Chen was secretly amazed.

Soon, after Gan Lin’s explanations, the other four found suitable combat techniques. The sheepskin paper was then handed to Long Chen. At a glance, Long Chen saw that the names of the combat techniques were all impressive, with fist techniques, finger techniques, seal techniques, claw techniques, leg techniques, and even sword techniques.

“Among the offensive combat techniques, I already have a mid-grade Mystic Rank Burning Heaven Demon Sun Fist. If I get another low-grade Mystic Rank offensive combat technique, it won’t be very useful...”

Thinking about this, Long Chen skipped over the items above and directly looked at the ones below, finally finding a movement combat technique called the Nine Heavens Dragon Step.

Long Chen asked, "What about this Nine Heavens Dragon Step?"

Long Chen already had a mid-grade Mystic Rank combat technique, so when he chose a movement combat technique, Gan Lin was not surprised but had an expected expression. He said, "Among the low-grade Mystic Rank identity combat techniques, the Nine Heavens Dragon Step is quite famous. In battle, when you use the Nine Heavens Dragon Step, your figure is like a water snake, swift and unpredictable, making it difficult for the enemy to grasp your movements. If you combine it with a powerful offensive combat technique, it will definitely have a strong effect. Your beast soul transformation body is very resilient, making it very suitable for the Nine Heavens Dragon Step!”

Given Gan Lin’s high praise for the Nine Heavens Dragon Step, Long Chen made a decision and said, "Then I’ll choose it."

Gan Lin was happy that Long Chen had chosen something suitable for himself. Now that he had explained everything and given everything, he stood up, stretched, and said, "I’ve taken up a lot of your time. Go back to your rooms to heal and familiarize yourselves with the new techniques. I live in the first-level disciple area of the Green Willow Residence. If you have any issues, you can find me!”

Saying this, Gan Lin left cleanly and neatly.

The others were eager to return, so they only briefly introduced themselves to each other before immediately returning to their rooms.

“The rooms of the Spirit Martial Family’s disciples, no one else can enter. The door is opened with the identity jade token.”

Opening the door, Long Chen was amazed by the elegant and refined interior. The Spirit Martial City was indeed resource-rich; even the residence for fourth-level disciples was so luxurious.

As soon as the door was closed, Ling Xi immediately flew out of the Ling Xi Sword. Seeing the white jade-like residence, she immediately beamed with joy, walking around inside and finally comfortably lying on the bed, exclaiming, "Finally, I’ve found a somewhat satisfactory residence. From now on, this is my territory!”

Long Chen teased, "Xia Xi, this should be my place. You say we, a man and a woman, sleeping in the same bed, seems a bit inappropriate, doesn’t it?"

Ling Xi immediately jumped up, looking at Long Chen angrily and scolding, "You despicable lecher, dreaming! I don’t want to sleep with you. From now on, I’ll sleep in the bed, and you’ll sleep on the floor!”

Long Chen dryly laughed a few times and then ignored her. Taking a few steps, he discovered there was even a basement inside. The basement was actually a training room. Long Chen sat down on one of the cushions and said to Ling Xi, who was still happily playing, "Hey, you play there. I’m going to heal.”

To be honest, the punch from Huang Fei Yang had already caused some internal injuries to Long Chen. If not for his incredible willpower, he wouldn’t have been able to hold on until now. Gan Lin had also seen his willpower and was even more impressed.

Taking out the Yun Ling Grass, Long Chen examined it for a while and found that its medicinal scent was much stronger than that of the Mountain Demon Ginseng.

“No wonder it’s a high-grade Yellow Rank medicinal herb!”

Crushing the Yun Ling Grass and swallowing it, a cool and gentle flow of energy immediately began to nourish his body. Long Chen secretly urged his true qi to work with the medicinal power to heal his injuries.

In less than fifteen minutes, Long Chen found that his body’s recovery ability was indeed very powerful. Injuries that would take others five days to recover from, he could recover from in one day.

Opening his eyes, Long Chen’s eyes were full of cold light.

“Huang Fei Yang, I will return this punch to you one day!”

Although there was a gap, this gap was not insurmountable.

“Once I enter the Human Core Realm and combine the Burning Heaven Demon Sun Fist with the Dragon Soul Transformation...”

Long Chen knew that Huang Fei Yang hated him to the bone. Both of them were in the Green Willow Residence, and if Long Chen didn’t kill him, Huang Fei Yang would one day kill Long Chen.

Night soon fell, and at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Ling Xi’s eyes showed disgust as she said, "It’s that stinky woman coming to find you!”

“Who?” Long Chen didn’t understand why Ling Xi’s face was so sour.

“It’s that Liu something from earlier. Coming here in the middle of the night, truly shameless!”

【This is the third day of the week, and I’m steadily in second place on the new book chart, just behind Ao Zong’s 'World Emperor.' This is my best achievement so far. Thank you all for your support. I hope you continue to give me flowers and support.】
