Martial Artist: Stronger by Coasting Along-Chapter 456 - 131: Try Your Luck, Unleash the Power of the Leopard!

Chapter 456: Chapter 131: Try Your Luck, Unleash the Power of the Leopard!

"This..."

"Then why would he do that?"

Zhao Zihao and the others looked puzzled.

"Not concerned."

"Or rather, he is self-aware."

Li Xiaoshuang sighed and said.

"After all, he is just a Fourth-Line Martial Arts Student. Qin Wanrong activated the South Heaven Gate Array to save him. Though he is grateful, he knows his humble status well and doesn’t dare to dream of associating with the Qin Family or thinks he can win over Qin Wanrong. Playing mahjong with us is his way of responding to Qin Wanrong, telling the Qin Family, he is unworthy!"

Li Xiaoshuang spoke with conviction.

"Huh?"

Zhao Zihao and the other two were caught off guard.

"Could it be you’re overanalyzing?"

Qian Bo frowned.

"Do you think a Martial Arts Student, who came second in the national exam, is a fool? Doesn’t he know that indulging in play all day, and us playing mahjong with him daily, is to stop him from cultivating, so the academy might eliminate him?"

Li Xiaoshuang retorted.

"This..."

The three were stunned again.

"That’s why Zhang Lingfeng pretends not to know, even though he knows we have ill intentions, and cooperates with us in playing mahjong, wasting all his cultivation time."

Sun Dehua said.

He suddenly felt sympathy for Zhang Lingfeng.

Coming from a humble background, serendipity led to recognition by a big family, living in fear, feeling inferior, and trying every possible way to sever ties with the big family.

"Qin Wanrong is overstepping. She doesn’t consider that her father, Qin Cangqiong, is both the Martial Hall Master and is expected to reach Foundation Establishment before fifty. Zhang Lingfeng, as a Fourth-Line Martial Arts Student, would know to retreat when faced with such odds if he has any self-respect."

Qian Bo belatedly sighed.

"Now Qin Wanrong is grounded by the Qin Family, losing cultivation resource subsidies. This is both a punishment from the Qin Family and a signal to Zhang Lingfeng, and Zhang Lingfeng, being smart, knows what to do."

Zhao Zihao agreed.

"Once he is eliminated from the academy, even if the Qin Family doesn’t hold a grudge, Qin Qianyu and Qin Xin, even Qin Wanrong, won’t let him off."

Qian Bo reminded.

"That’s why I told him to come to us."

Li Xiaoshuang looked at the pile of mahjong tiles on the table.

He picked up the three of ten thousand.

In the last round, You Jin played the three of ten thousand, a jack-of-all-trades tile. He had to admit, this game is addictively easy. But as a child of one of the four great families, there’s no concern of being eliminated from the academy; they could stay and cultivate, a waste of ten days or half a month doesn’t matter much to them.

However, Zhang Lingfeng couldn’t afford such waste.

Knowing he couldn’t afford it, yet still accompanying them in wasteful indulgence, that determined expression moved Li Xiaoshuang.

"Bang!"

He slapped that three of ten thousand on the seat that originally belonged to Zhang Lingfeng.

"The higher up, the colder it gets. The threshold of the Qin Family is too high."

Li Xiaoshuang sighed.

He questioned himself, if he were Zhang Lingfeng, facing Qin Wanrong’s almost crazy affection, he might not be able to withstand it either. The Qin Family’s threshold is too high, even he would feel suffocated.

Outside, no matter how Qin Wanrong explained, people preferred to believe that Qin Wanrong had taken a liking to Zhang Lingfeng. Only in such a scenario would she activate the South Heaven Gate Array to save Zhang Lingfeng.

Even Qin Qianyu and Qin Xin agreed.

In the dormitory.

Zhang Lingfeng checked the panel information.

Name: Zhang Lingfeng

Coasting Along Value: 18888

Profession: Martial Arts Grandmaster, Spirit Telekinesis Master Level 17

Seven Element Spear Intent: Third Layer (22/30000)

Bloodline Power: Leopard God Bloodline (13201/50000)

Spiritual Demon Realm: Dark Night (14366/50000)

Sea of Consciousness: (17.5/100)

Spiritual Power: (17.1/100)

Dantian: (41.633/100)

Sea of Qi: (39.99/100)

Physical Fitness: 2360.2

Combat Power: 30100.3

Skills: All-weather Dantian Sea of Qi Expansion Ability (some early awakened abilities, now mostly ineffective, will not appear again to avoid unnecessary wordiness.)

Since the addition of Li Xiaoshuang and the three others, Zhang Lingfeng has been immersed in play daily. Thanks to this, his Coasting Along Value has consistently remained high, accumulating 18888 points in ten days.

Meanwhile, with the help of the All-weather Dantian Sea of Qi Expansion Ability, his Dantian and Sea of Qi also grew at a speed of 2.0 per day.

Due to the concurrent enhancement of his physical fitness and combat power, aided by the all-weather bloodline awakening ability benefitting his Leopard God Bloodline, Zhang Lingfeng’s physical fitness surged over a hundred points in just ten days, reaching 2360.2, and his combat power exceeded 30000.0, reaching 30100.3.

Currently, aside from not yet awakening a Spiritual Root, his overall combat power doesn’t fall short against some pseudo-spiritual root realm travelers.

The disadvantage lies in not possessing a Spiritual Root, limiting his control over the Power of Heaven and Earth, putting Zhang Lingfeng at a disadvantage against those pseudo-spiritual root realm travelers even with comparable combat power; he finds it hard to gain an edge and is easily suppressed.

However, no matter what, at this moment, his Dantian Sea of Qi level reached a small success level.

Once it reaches 70.0, the Dantian will be filled, and the Sea of Qi will be complete, allowing him to attempt nurturing a Spiritual Root.

Combining the power of the Sea of Consciousness and Spiritual Power, he’s hopeful to nurture an extraordinary Spiritual Root.

Of course, Zhang Lingfeng is not in a hurry. With the All-weather Dantian Sea of Qi Expansion Ability, he can achieve a completely filled Dantian and Sea of Qi.

With both the Spiritual Power and the Sea of Consciousness Power assisting, the spiritual root level he nurtures in the future might be within the Sixth Grade and could even rival Li Xiaoshuang.

In short, Zhang Lingfeng is full of expectations for the future. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Looking at those 18888 Coasting Along Value points, thinking that tomorrow is the major exam, Zhang Lingfeng hesitated whether to enhance the Dantian Sea of Qi, pushing it into the Great Success Domain.
