Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 402 - 111: External Interference – Must Participate in the Continental Exam

Chapter 402: Chapter 111: External Interference – Must Participate in the Continental Exam

"This is all thanks to you."

Huo Family sighed, recalling a time when he tried to hinder Zhang Lingfeng from obtaining all the resources of Jiangbei Province, intending for Ming Cheng to represent Jiangbei Province instead.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Lingfeng achieved such outstanding results in the national exam, bringing him fame and thus earning many resource subsidies, with hopes of becoming a Realm Traveler.

"If Mister Ku can ensure you become a Realm Traveler, you shouldn’t refuse him. Being able to follow him is a wish of countless people. Him taking a liking to you is your honor."

Ao Dagang chimed in.

The three all hoped for Zhang Lingfeng to become better. Even if Zhang Lingfeng leaves Jiangbei Province, they hope he can achieve better development because Zhang Lingfeng has already given them plenty.

So, whether Zhang Lingfeng can become a martial arts student for the continental exam, and whether he can bring help to Jiangbei Province, they all hope Zhang Lingfeng can shine in the continental exam.

Only by interacting with martial arts students from the outside world, can one know how vast this world is, and how many terrifying beings defying the heavens exist in the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance.

"I’ll do my best. If there’s a chance to become a martial arts student for the continental exam, I will certainly give it a try."

Zhang Lingfeng understood the intentions of the three and thus replied casually.

Ku Xuanhe mentioned that only when the Dantian’s power is full and the Qi Sea transforms from formless to form, from gaseous to liquid, and when the physical fitness reaches 2500.0, can one nurture Spiritual Roots.

Currently, there’s only a vortex in his abdomen, the Dantian hasn’t condensed yet, and his physical fitness is still far from 2500.0. Nurturing Spiritual Roots to become a Realm Traveler indeed is not easy.

He inwardly envied Qin Qianyu even more.

Comparing oneself to others is infuriating. Some people spend their whole life unable to nurture Spiritual Roots, while some are born with Spiritual Roots, possessing a Spirit Root Sacred Body.

This world is rife with injustices.

The Academy, to some extent, can heal this wound, making people’s competition a bit fairer.

"That’s more like it."

The three from King of North of the River were overjoyed.

"Mister Zhao, you mentioned before that Mister Ku’s Spiritual Demon Realm connects with the real world, and the Five Elements Basic Power reaches Perfection. Does this mean my Spiritual Demon Realm can also become as powerful as Mister Ku’s, unknowingly trapping enemies in my Demon Realm, unable to extricate themselves?"

Recalling past events, Zhang Lingfeng asked.

"It’s possible, but Mister Ku’s Demon Realm can only connect with the real world because he surpasses the existence of Realm Travelers and divine mirrors.

Additionally, his Spirit Root Level is not weak, being able to capture the minutiae of power and construct them into a complete world ecology.

Thus allowing his Spiritual Demon Realm to connect with the world, making the Spiritual Demon Realm look like a real world in the eyes of his enemies, controlling them from their physical body to their energy and spirit."

King of North of the River explained.

After all, being a provincial leader, even though it’s just a fourth-tier province and far from Ku Xuanhe, he has studied the power aspect of the Spiritual Demon Realm.

However, as someone who only possesses a Spiritual Demon Realm and cannot connect the Demon Realm with the real world, the knowledge King of North of the River imparts is based on books and others’ explanations.

He hasn’t personally experienced it, and the descriptions lack emotion. Although Zhang Lingfeng could feel the strength within, he couldn’t fully grasp the intricacies of connecting the Demon Realm with the real world.

"Thank you, Mister Zhao, for your guidance."

Zhang Lingfeng expressed gratitude, not continuing to ask, realizing that King of North of the River couldn’t provide more knowledge in this area.

In essence, to truly become powerful, to let one’s Spiritual Demon Realm connect with the real world, to nurture Spiritual Roots from the Dantian Sea of Qi, and even to have a full Dantian, guidance must come from the Academy’s teachers.

Of course, if one possesses enough Coasting Along Value, these issues wouldn’t be a concern.

In short, Zhang Lingfeng has another path to pursue.

Tomorrow is the finals, a face-off with Qin Qianyu.

All along, Zhang Lingfeng has only seen Qin Qianyu through videos of her swiftly defeating Wen Duoduo.

He has yet to encounter Qin Qianyu in the real world. Tomorrow he will witness her prowess firsthand. Although knowing he isn’t her match, he still wishes to see just how strong she really is.

The gap between them is impossible to bridge through cultivation.

Zhang Lingfeng sat on the bed, taking out that bottle of Demon God Blood again. Currently, his Leopard God Bloodline has become as powerful as the Demon God Bloodline. Even if he ingests this Demon God Blood, it wouldn’t significantly improve his bloodline power or physical fitness.

More so, the process of ingestion would bring unbearable pain.

Of course, with his bloodline transforming to the Demon God Level Bloodline, the pain mentioned by King of North of the River would lessen considerably. But even so, Zhang Lingfeng didn’t intend to drink this bottle of Demon God Blood.

He placed it back into his pocket, lay down, and checked the information on social media.

With the continuous good results he achieved in the national exam, the entire Jiangbei Province and South City were abuzz with excitement over him.

During this time, familiar teachers, classmates, and friends like Wang Dashan, Marquis Zhuge, Yan Fei, Huang Ling, Huo Guoqiong, Hong Lixin, Yang Liru, Xu Zhiyuan, the Angry Little Girl, even Teng Qingshan, Ye Chen, Kang Ning, Ye Xuan, Chen Duling, Lai Zhijun, and Wu Weiwei all sent messages of congratulations.

Everyone expressed how hard he worked during this period, how bright his achievements were, and how splendid his performance in the competition was.

Zhang Lingfeng replied to each of them, telling them that after the national exam, he would head directly to the Academy for cultivation, and returning to Jiangbei Province or South City might have to wait until the cultivation at the Academy is completed.

Wang Dashan and others were thrilled, urging him not to put too much pressure on himself and hoping he would achieve good results in tomorrow’s finals. Ultimately, Wang Dashan and Marquis Zhuge left messages, suggesting that Zhang Lingfeng should relax tonight, play some games, or even meet them in the Star Realm’s advanced game realm.

Wang Dashan and Yan Fei’s thinking was simple.

Defeating Qin Qianyu was impossible. The outcome of tomorrow’s match was a foregone conclusion, so they didn’t want Zhang Lingfeng to feel any pressure, hoping to reduce his stress through this way.

But Zhang Lingfeng refused.

The reason was simple, as Wang Dashan and Yan Fei’s levels were too low, and besides, he had already promised the Angry Little Girl, who even brought a group of female streamers along.

As he achieved good results in the national exam, his fame spread far and wide, and now the once unreachable gaming influencers were queuing up to reach him.

Zhang Lingfeng could seize this chance to get acquainted with them, releasing his stress.

Eventually, Zhang Lingfeng spent the whole night playing games with a group of female streamers in the Star Realm, all within advanced realms. Female streamers clung to Zhang Lingfeng, allowing him to feel the benefits of fame.

Slicing through enemies with valor and magnificence in the game realm, his image stirred up screams of amazement from the female streamers, with many vying to embrace him, trying to pull Zhang Lingfeng into their live broadcasts.

Until external forces intervened.

One hour before the finals, all these female streamers disappeared from the Star Realm, being restricted from logging into the Star Realm for thirty days.

"Zhang Lingfeng, the match starts in one hour. The Qin Family gave you the Demon God Blood to help boost your strength, not for you to waste time in the Star Realm gaming realm.

Having just ingested the Demon God Blood, continue using the Breathing Technique or Body Tempering Technique to circulate your Qi and blood, and within ten days, it could still effectively enhance your bloodline power."

It was Pu Yuchao’s figure.

His figure appeared before Zhang Lingfeng, his face as black as coal.

"Then I’ll head out first."

Zhang Lingfeng hadn’t realized how fast time flew, with an entire night passing, bringing forth the next day. Pu Yuchao personally coming to find him in the Star Realm was unexpected.

Upon waking up in bed, he heard King of North of the River and Ao Dagang sighing downstairs, evidently also unable to stand this state.

He even overheard Wang Dashan and others being scolded via video by Ao Dagang, indicating that his gaming indulgence last night led to Pu Yuchao’s intrusion in the gaming realm. In Ao Dagang and King of North of the River’s eyes, it was linked to Wang Dashan and others inviting Zhang Lingfeng to the Star Realm to relax.

They couldn’t confront Zhang Lingfeng, but could certainly reprimand Wang Dashan and others.

Zhang Lingfeng wore an apologetic face, understanding that this burden had to be borne by Wang Dashan and the others. Before exiting the room, he casually glanced at his Coasting Along Value, momentarily pausing his hand from opening the door after seeing it.
