Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 447 - 128: Long-Awaited Skill Awakening

The methods to enhance the Dantian and Sea of Qi values are all within the Dantian Secret Manual. After Xu Pengfei finished explaining the cultivation issues to everyone, he began to guide everyone on how to strengthen their Dantian and Sea of Qi through the manual.

Everyone focused intently, following Xu Pengfei’s guidance, attempting to circulate their Dantian and Sea of Qi using the methods from the manual to absorb the power of heaven and earth...

Listening to lectures seriously posed no pressure for Zhang Lingfeng, but serious cultivation was different. Very quickly, Zhang Lingfeng reverted to his usual ways.

A little bit of cultivation, followed by a rest.

Xu Pengfei’s teaching style wasn’t as strict as Pei Haidong’s. Initially, he thought Zhang Lingfeng hadn’t adapted to the rhythm of Classroom Two yet. Not only did he not criticize Zhang Lingfeng, but he also gave him time to adjust.

After cultivation ended, the news about Zhang Lingfeng successfully opening his Dantian and Sea of Qi and moving from Classroom One to Classroom Two for cultivation quickly reached Li Xiaoshuang, Zhao Zihao, and others.

Initially, the four of them were as shocked as Pei Haidong, finding it unbelievable and unable to understand how Zhang Lingfeng suddenly managed to open his Dantian and Sea of Qi. But soon, they thought that the Qin family had colluded with Zhang Lingfeng to deliberately conceal his strength and make a splash at the academy.

They all cursed shamelessness.

Then, they continued to closely monitor Zhang Lingfeng’s every move.

The academy’s rules dictate a test every ten days, and a major test every thirty days.

Very soon, the first ten-day test arrived.

Qin Qianyu was still in seclusion.

Relying on the successful opening of his Dantian and Sea of Qi, Zhang Lingfeng smoothly passed the first test. Other new students also made significant progress within ten days with the academy’s assistance, and no one scored insufficiently in the first test.

Even Zhang Lingfeng’s current abilities were sufficient to meet the major test’s requirements.

Even if there was no progress in cultivation within twenty days, his score could still meet the requirements.

For someone entering the academy with Dantian and Sea of Qi showing nothing, to successfully opening them and becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster in thirty days, it’s already a remarkable achievement for the academy.

But to prevent Zhang Lingfeng from becoming complacent, Xu Pengfei and Ge Chunqiu both reminded him not to be arrogant and to continue working hard in cultivation, aiming for his Dantian and Sea of Qi values to reach above 15.0 in the major test in twenty days.

Simultaneously.

Zhang Lingfeng also received a voice message from Qin Qianyu.

Although he was in seclusion, he wasn’t completely disconnected from the outside world. Ge Chunqiu informed him of Zhang Lingfeng’s quiz results first thing.

Qin Qianyu was both shocked and pleased but also believed it was the effect of Qin Xin’s Spiritual Spring Water. So he asked Ge Chunqiu to give half of the cultivation resource subsidy he got from the academy to Zhang Lingfeng for consumption.

As someone with a full Dantian, a perfect Sea of Qi, and already possessing a Spiritual Root, missing only the last response to awaken the root, Qin Qianyu didn’t need the Spiritual Spring Water subsidy for now.

Zhang Lingfeng was overwhelmed with gratitude.

He assured Qin Qianyu to rest easy in seclusion, promising he’ll exert all his effort to enhance his cultivation, aiming to free Qin Wanrong as soon as possible.

Then looking at the five bottles of Spiritual Spring Water sent over by Ge Chunqiu on Qin Qianyu’s behalf, even though each bottle contained only about twenty milliliters, Zhang Lingfeng was still immensely moved.

Not wanting to disappoint Qin Qianyu, he poured the Spiritual Spring Water together, added a few wolfberries and red dates, and leisurely enjoyed it while basking in the sun.

In the days that followed, Zhang Lingfeng maintained his pacing in learning, not striving hard, not competing, not aggressive, and not pushing himself.

He would show up right on time and leave immediately when time was up, even if Xu Pengfei was covering important topics, he wouldn’t look back.

Initially, Xu Pengfei thought the content he was teaching must have already been explained to Zhang Lingfeng by the Qin family’s experts, so when Zhang Lingfeng left the classroom first, he didn’t stop him.

He even assumed that Zhang Lingfeng might be going back to the Cultivation Room to review or returning to his dormitory to cultivate seriously.

But after inquiring, it turned out that Zhang Lingfeng was rushing back to play mahjong with an intelligent robot, neither cultivating nor reviewing his teaching materials.

The second quiz was soon approaching.

Zhang Lingfeng’s abilities had stagnated.

Ming Cheng and six new students scored insufficiently, resulting in a warning from the academy. If they still scored insufficiently in the major test in ten days, Ming Cheng and those six new students would have to leave the academy.

"It’s all because of you!"

Ming Cheng, dragging a suitcase and holding his bedding, left the dormitory and parted ways with Zhang Lingfeng.

Every day after returning from the classroom, Zhang Lingfeng would hide in the dormitory, playing mahjong, listening to music, or gaming. Influenced by him, Ming Cheng also spent several hours daily playing. Already not the most gifted among new students, he finally flunked the second quiz.

Desperate to stay at the academy.

He painfully severed ties with Zhang Lingfeng and moved out of the dormitory, paying for an individual room out of his own pocket.

"I’ve told you long ago, playing mahjong won’t improve your abilities, but you just wouldn’t believe it."

Zhang Lingfeng stated helplessly.

Over the ten days, he accumulated significant Coasting Along Value. Initially, he intended to shine in the second quiz, at least managing to meet Xu Pengfei and Qin Qianyu’s expectations.

But ever since he opened his Dantian and Sea of Qi and transferred to Classroom Two, Ming Cheng became obsessed with mahjong, not only following him to play but also secretly playing with three intelligent beings, excelling at winning on self-pick and winning after a kong.

Worried about the impact on him.

Zhang Lingfeng had advised him several times to no avail, so he had no choice but to refrain from using his Coasting Along Value and let the results of the second quiz enlighten Ming Cheng.
