Chapter 87

Approaching the Yanhuang Stone, Jiang Feilin continued her introduction:

"Practicing cultivation beside the Yanhuang Stone, the stone itself can guide the gathering of heaven and earth's spiritual energy, making it even more effective than refining precious jade."

"Moreover, the closer you are to the Yanhuang Stone, the greater the benefits of cultivation will be."

"Based on the distance between the disciples and the Yanhuang Stone, the Tianfu has divided the compatibility into five levels."

"Level one compatibility is the farthest from the Yanhuang Stone, offering the least benefits."

"The highest level five compatibility is called the peak compatibility, meaning one can cultivate right next to the Yanhuang Stone."

"This is the symbol of the highest talent in Tianfu. If someone can achieve this level, they would be a legendary figure."

Jiang Feilin said this with a tone of admiration.

"Peak compatibility? How many people in Tianfu currently have peak compatibility with the Yanhuang Stone?" Li Tianming asked.

"Brother, are you joking?" Jiang Feilin said, shaking her head.

"Very few?" Li Tianming asked.

"Not just few, but none at all."

"Peak compatibility is just a legend."

"According to historical records, throughout the history of the Yanhuang Academy, there seem to be very few people who have achieved peak compatibility."

"None at all?"

Li Tianming was a bit surprised. It turned out that getting the closest to the Yanhuang Stone for cultivation was so difficult.

"Of course. Currently, the disciple with the best compatibility with the Yanhuang Stone can only reach level four compatibility."

"Moreover, there are only six or seven people in the entire Tianfu. Qing'er is one of them." Jiang Feilin said.

"Who is the closest?" Li Tianming asked.

"Brother, you won't want to hear this name." She said.

Li Tianming understood. The person closest to the Yanhuang Stone was still the top genius of Tianfu, Lin Xiaoting.

But even he was only at level four compatibility.

Level five compatibility seemed to have not appeared for a very long time in history.

Li Tianming had already learned enough about the Yanhuang Stone.

He knew that once one entered the core area of the Yanhuang Stone, a spiritual energy storm would appear ahead.

The spiritual energy storm has a strong repelling effect, making it not difficult to stand in it.

However, cultivating there, one could easily go astray if not careful.

No Tianfu disciple wanted to be ravaged by the spiritual energy storm.

Therefore, with just one attempt, they could roughly determine their compatibility level.

A disciple with only level one compatibility, if they tried to cultivate in the level three compatibility area, would not only gain no benefits but would be courting death.

This was something predetermined by heaven, and one could not force it.

In Li Tianming's eyes, most of the disciples in the Yanhuang Tower were sitting around the Yanhuang Stone, cultivating.

The core area was divided into five concentric rings, with no one in the innermost ring or the second-to-last ring. Only about ten people were in the third ring.

The third ring was level three compatibility.

However, most of the disciples who had been watching outside had not yet entered the cultivation state.

They never expected that Li Tianming, who had offended Wei Lingxuan and Wei Qingyi, would dare to come in.

After all, Wei Qingyi had the heart to kill him.

Li Tianming was about to test his own compatibility when he suddenly felt a chill from behind.

Turning around, he saw the spoiled girl Wei Lingxuan and her cousin Wei Qingyi standing together.

The two of them stared at Li Tianming with cold faces.

With their strength, and without Jiang Feilin's spirit attachment, they could indeed suppress Li Tianming.

After all, Wei Lingxuan was at the sixth level of the Spirit Source Realm, while Li Tianming's true realm was the first level of the Spirit Source Realm.

"Combat is forbidden in the Yanhuang Tower. Don't violate the rules," Jiang Feilin said, frowning.

"Princess Ling, don't worry, we have plenty of opportunities to make him kneel and beg for mercy," Wei Lingxuan said, no longer being polite to her.

After all, her status was no less than that of a real princess.

"Princess Ling, if you don't listen to advice and stubbornly associate with this scum, don't blame us if something happens to you," Wei Qingyi said sarcastically.

It seemed he had given up on making a good impression on Princess Ling.

The humiliation he had just suffered had already made him lose his desire to pursue her.

"It's none of your business who I associate with."

"Moreover, a person without manners and quality, who insults others as scum, can't be much better themselves," Jiang Feilin said sternly.

In fact, people had never seen the clear and lovely Princess Ling show such a tough side.

Her protection of Li Tianming was very impressive.

They could only grit their teeth, envying and hating Li Tianming!

Wei Qingyi was already angry enough, and now being rebuked by Jiang Feilin, he was so flustered that he couldn't even speak, which was indeed embarrassing.

"Qingyi, don't say anything more. Birds of a feather flock together, and scum indeed tend to gather. There's nothing more to say," Wei Lingxuan said.

"Yes, Sister Xuan," Wei Qingyi gritted his teeth.

Wei Lingxuan narrowed her eyes.

If she let Li Tianming off today, she would be very unwilling.

But there was no opportunity to act here, so she could only lower her voice, not wanting others to hear her.

"You'd better not go to the Wei Family Manor, and don't think about seeing your mother. Otherwise, if you encounter me, I'll beat you every time. I won't let you go until you kneel and kowtow to me."

"Right, don't let us catch you. I want to see how long Princess Ling can protect you. Letting a woman protect you, you're really a coward," Wei Qingyi said.

They were whispering threats, and outsiders couldn't hear them.

"Even if I am a coward, I don't urinate in public like a dog. What's that smell? So foul," Li Tianming shrugged and smiled.

This sentence made Wei Qingyi tremble even more.

To be honest, he had already changed his pants, and the smell was long gone.

But now that Li Tianming brought it up, it was even more unbearable than being killed.

"Don't be impulsive," Wei Lingxuan restrained Wei Qingyi. Her gaze was extremely cold as she said to Li Tianming:

"Li Tianming, you and your mother are the same kind. She made Grandfather so angry over a pig from the countryside that she left home for twenty years without returning, with a heart of stone. Getting the Life Tribulation is the best retribution for her."

"Just wait and see her die in the Rainforest Pavilion. But you won't be able to see her. If you dare to come to the Wei Family Manor, I'll break one of your legs every time you come."

"Right, don't think you really have any blood relation to us. To the Wei Family Manor, you and your mother are just shameful stray dogs!" Wei Qingyi cursed in a low voice.

"Say one more word?"

Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone Li Tianming.

Insulting himself, he could retaliate, but his mother was his sore spot.

Every word Wei Lingxuan said now was touching his sore spot.

"What if I say it again? With your strength, if it weren't for Princess Ling, you would only be kneeling on the ground begging for mercy," Wei Lingxuan glared at him, her eyes full of arrogance.

"At twenty years old, you're only at this level. You have the nerve to enter Tianfu and come back for help? Do you really think you're my cousin, and I should respect you?" Wei Qingyi said.

They were confident in their strength. At least Wei Lingxuan believed that she could easily overpower Li Tianming.

Wei Qingyi also believed that if it weren't for Jiang Feilin, with his fifth level of the Spirit Source Realm and the Six-Winged Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird, Li Tianming would have been the one to suffer a crushing defeat today!

"You say that if I go to the Wei Family Manor once, you'll beat me once?"

Li Tianming had made up his mind. It was foolish to have any hope in such a relationship. Since it had come to this, there was no need to be polite.

"So what?" Wei Lingxuan lifted her head, looking at him proudly.

"Then you'd better keep track of my movements, so you don't miss me when I come back," Li Tianming said.

"You really make me laugh. Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you at the gate," Wei Lingxuan laughed.

Talking more was pointless. A person's capital and dignity couldn't be regained with words.

Li Tianming focused his gaze on the Yanhuang Stone.

His purpose today was to cultivate beside the Yanhuang Stone.

"Brother, I'll use my spirit attachment state and go in with you to see if I can achieve level three compatibility," Jiang Feilin said hurriedly.

She didn't want to get entangled with Wei Lingxuan and the others here.

"Let's try." Li Tianming said. Compared to these two trash relatives, he was more interested in the Yanhuang Stone.

"You're talking about level three compatibility? Don't make me laugh. Please, stop it," Wei Qingyi couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard their words.

"Sister Xuan, did you hear that?"

"Frogs at the bottom of a well indeed love to talk big and show off. They come here to make a fool of themselves," Wei Lingxuan rolled her eyes and said.

Li Tianming didn't want to deal with them, but they kept provoking him.

"What if I can achieve level three compatibility?" Li Tianming turned his head, looking at them coldly.

"Are you trying to bet with me?" Wei Lingxuan laughed.

"So what if I am?"

"If you can achieve level three compatibility, I'll kneel and kowtow to you, and lick your shoes clean with my tongue," Wei Lingxuan shrugged, looking indifferent.

This was interesting.

She had this confidence because even she barely achieved level three compatibility, while Wei Qingyi only had level two compatibility.

Most Tianfu disciples were at level one or two, and level three compatibility was already considered the upper echelon of geniuses in Tianfu.

Li Tianming, at twenty years old, was at this realm and could only defeat fifteen-year-old Lin Xiaoxiao. Normally, such talent would struggle to even achieve level one compatibility, let alone level three.

So she wasn't worried at all.

In fact, she had a trick up her sleeve.

A disciple had to continuously cultivate in the matching compatibility area for half an hour to be considered a match for the current compatibility level.

For example, if Li Tianming wanted to prove he had level three compatibility, he would have to cultivate in the third ring for half an hour.

To prove himself, he would have to force himself to stay in the level three compatibility area, even though he was far from achieving it.

If he overexerted himself, he might go astray, lose all his previous efforts, and even suffer serious injuries on the spot.

She was eager to see Li Tianming overexert himself for the bet.

She knew Li Tianming despised her, so she proposed a bet that would make him think.

If she lost, she would kneel and lick his shoes clean with her tongue?

Ha ha.

Li Tianming smiled and asked, "What if I lose?"

"If you don't achieve level three compatibility, it's simple. You'll kneel and kowtow to me three times, and then shout three times 'I, Li Tianming, am a silver thief' in front of everyone."

"So, do you have the guts to bet with me?" Wei Lingxuan challenged.

"Wait a moment." Li Tianming suddenly slipped away.

"Scared off?" The Tianfu geniuses burst into laughter.

But Li Tianming returned shortly after.

People saw that his shoes were now covered with dirty things, probably from stepping in a mud pit.

They understood that Li Tianming had deliberately dirtied his shoes so that if he won, he could make Wei Lingxuan lick his shoes clean.

Clearly, he had accepted the bet!

This was interesting. The Yanhuang Tower was about to get exciting.

Under everyone's gaze, Li Tianming smiled at Wei Lingxuan and said:

"Can we start? Remember, you have to lick them clean. I have a bit of a cleanliness obsession, and I won't wear them if they're not clean enough."

"Also, Wei Qingyi, can you pee on my shoes again?"
