Chapter 68

It turned out that during that spirit attachment, she saw so much.

That was why she treated him so well.

That was why when he appeared in Yan City, she was willing to come and support him.

With her status as Princess Ling, she gave him encouragement and support.

Experiencing it firsthand, she understood more clearly than Li Tianming could describe.

To the point that, in this sudden moment, she became the person who understood him the most.

"I want to listen to your heartbeat again, to the voice in your heart," she said softly.

"Sure." Li Tianming opened his arms.

He no longer cared about the world's judgment, regardless of whether others thought he was shameless or had a ruined reputation; he didn't mind.

His mother had said that whatever he did, he should follow his heart's choice.

There are so many people in this world, and caring about so many people's opinions, with each person having different thoughts, would make life truly exhausting.

So, at this moment when his heart was moved, when he felt warmth, he wanted to embrace her more than anyone else.

Li Tianming held her in his arms.

She placed her ear on Li Tianming's chest, listening intently to his heartbeat.

Her smile gradually spread, and she said happily, "Brother, your heart was very agitated just now, but now it has calmed down, and it sounds very nice."

"It's you who gave me peace," Li Tianming said with a smile.

"What? Flirting with Princess Ling in public and still talking so sweetly, do you think everyone here is blind?" A noisy voice broke the warm atmosphere.

"Stinky Yinghuo, don't talk nonsense," Jiang Feilin's face turned slightly red, like a ripe little peach.

She gently pulled away from Li Tianming's embrace, but her eyes never looked around.

This showed that she cared even less about the world's judgment than Li Tianming did.

In her world now, there were no other people.

"Who's talking nonsense? Haha, you say Li Tianming is so ugly, and I'm so handsome. How can your eyes be so bad, ignoring my appearance?" The little yellow chicken looked heartbroken and incredulous.

"Yinghuo, I didn't expect your face to be so small, but your skin is thicker than an elephant's ass," Li Tianming sneered.

That embrace had passed, but it was unforgettable.

This moment felt so wonderful.

The only thing that wasn't wonderful was when he suddenly met Mu Qingqing's eyes.

Mu Qingqing turned back as she was leaving and saw Li Tianming embracing the legendary first beauty of the Zhuque Kingdom, Jiang Feilin, who was still leaning on his chest.

Clearly, it wasn't Li Tianming who was forcing himself on her.

In that instant, Mu Qingqing's eyes seemed to be torn apart and about to fall to the ground.

Without a doubt, Li Tianming knew that her heart must be very complex and dramatic at this moment.

She liked to compare, and after comparing Li Tianming and Lin Xiaoting, she chose Lin Xiaoting.

Now, let her compare herself with Jiang Feilin. In terms of status and appearance, she was completely overshadowed.

But Princess Ling was embracing the Li Tianming she had already abandoned and destroyed, in public.

How the world would perceive their relationship was obvious.

This was interesting.

No matter how you looked at it, Li Tianming seemed to be making a comeback.

Defeating Lin Xiaoting and becoming the first disciple was nothing compared to the explosive impact of embracing Princess Ling in public.

Perhaps becoming the first disciple, some might say he lacked talent and relied on his age advantage.

But how could they explain his relationship with Princess Ling?

No one could explain it, and besides being baffled and incredulous, they had nothing to say.

When their eyes met, Li Tianming smiled and made a vomiting gesture at her.

Then, Li Tianming turned around, greeted Jiang Feilin with the sunniest smile, and ignored Mu Qingqing.

Li Tianming's meaning was clear: your disgust makes me vomit.

This was just the beginning.

What was owed in the past would be repaid gradually.

Mu Qingqing and Lin Xiaoting could only leave in silence.

The entire Yanhuang battlefield, including Li Tianming's old classmates, were still in shock, staring at Li Tianming.

After Li Tianming became the first disciple and had a mysterious relationship with Princess Ling, they were speechless.

For example, Fang Zhao would have wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.

The disciples of the entire Yanhuang battlefield, from disdain and hatred to envy and even admiration, were speechless.

They couldn't understand why Princess Ling had such a relationship with a notorious person, and even whispered a few words in disapproval.

But they had no right to influence Princess Ling's actions and thoughts.

Besides envy, jealousy, and resentment, they had nothing to say.

Perhaps in many private rooms, sighs of envy could be heard.

Today's Li Tianming was destined to make them feel a mix of emotions.

The key was that the two young people continued to be intimate under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Li Tianming used all his skills to make Jiang Feilin giggle.

When she laughed, her dimples were very beautiful, and this was her most beautiful moment.

"Feier, you're crazy!" A green figure rushed over, blocking Li Tianming and Jiang Feilin. It was the angry Green Princess.

She glared at Jiang Feilin and said, "Are you stupid? Giving this farmer a favor in public!"

"I want to do it this way," Jiang Feilin said with a smile, a smile that made it hard to be angry.

"Hey, did you forget what you promised me? Green Princess, you can't take a loss," Li Tianming said.

Previously, she had said that if Li Tianming became the first disciple, she wouldn't interfere with him and Jiang Feilin.

"Shut up, you pervert, shameless scoundrel," Green Princess glared.

"Is it honorable to break your word?" Li Tianming said with disdain.

"Okay, Qing'er, stop it. Brother, we'll go back now, remember to come to Tianfu and find us," Jiang Feilin pulled Jiang Qingluan, making her unable to get angry.

"If you dare to come, I'll break your legs," Green Princess challenged.

"Ha ha." Li Tianming didn't bother to argue with her; after all, the previous agreement was made by her own words.

"Hey, you're not even a man, Feier, you can't marry. Why are you breaking them up?" the little yellow chicken pouted.

"You're talking nonsense. I absolutely can't let this notorious guy ruin Feier's reputation," Green Princess glared and led the helpless Jiang Feilin away.

However, as Jiang Feilin left, she winked at Li Tianming.

Li Tianming believed in her relationship with Qing'er; they were closer than sisters, so she could handle Green Princess.

After they left, Li Tianming was called to Wei Zikun.

"Li Tianming, rest for three days, then come find me. I'll take you to Tianfu."

"To become a Tianfu disciple, you need to choose a 'Tianshi.' Ask Mu Wan about the Tianfu Tianshis over the next two days," Wei Zikun instructed.

"Yes, Lord." Li Tianming left the battlefield, as the ranking battle still needed to be concluded.

Tianfu was the holy land of the Yanhuang Academy, with a different teaching mechanism from the academy.

The academy had a class system, led by a Shangshi, with students typically graduating from the advanced class after twelve years of cultivation.

They would then leave the academy and serve the Zhuque Kingdom as academy disciples.

However, there was no graduation in Tianfu.

Tianfu was the core force of the Yanhuang Academy, and all Shangshis were part of Tianfu.

In Tianfu, the person responsible for guiding disciples in cultivation was called a 'Tianshi,' who was stronger and had a higher status than a Shangshi.

Each Tianfu Tianshi was a well-known figure in the Zhuque Kingdom, with a status higher than a city lord.

In Tianfu, each Tianshi directly took on disciples, with no more than ten disciples per Tianshi.

Therefore, the internal system of Tianfu was a master-disciple system, not a class system.

Choosing a suitable and appreciative Tianshi was one of the most important things in the path of cultivation.

After all, each Tianshi had a different personality, style, and even different companion beast attributes.

Choosing a master was the most important thing when entering Tianfu.

"Actually, as the first disciple, entering Tianfu with that title, Tianshis would usually compete for you, but you are different. You are older and your talent is not high."

"Once you enter, it's best to be low-key and speak nicely."

"If no Tianshi is willing to accept you, I guess you'll have to return to Mu Wan's class for cultivation, and then you'll be a laughingstock again."

Shangshi Mu Wan appeared out of nowhere, gloating.

"Is that possible?" Li Tianming was speechless.

He didn't expect that after working hard to become the first disciple, there was still a possibility of not entering Tianfu and being driven out.

But he could understand this system. Tianfu Tianshis directly took on disciples, and they would never accept those they didn't like.

Otherwise, if the disciple didn't achieve much, it would tarnish their reputation.

However, if it were a disciple like Lin Xiaoting, they would definitely compete for him, as a brilliant future would bring them face.

So, it would depend on himself in three days.

"Shangshi, how do you feel about me defeating Chen Yao and Lin Xiaoting?"

Remember, this guy just said he was sure to lose.

"I was motivating you; you should understand the deep love of a Shangshi," Mu Wan pouted.

In her heart, she was already extremely shocked.

She had long known that Li Tianming was different.

"How deep?" the little yellow chicken asked.
