Chapter 25 Special Training! Demons!

In the training ground, as soon as Lu Ming finished speaking, Shen Changfeng roared furiously:

"Lu Ming, you plotted to frame my fourth brother yesterday, causing his death, and you still have the nerve to ask Wei Sizheng what business he has with you?"

"I have come here today to arrest you."

The four hundred disciples were completely silent at this moment, watching the scene with surprise, confusion, or amusement.

"Who are you?" Lu Ming turned to look at Shen Changfeng and said calmly.

Shen Changfeng's gaze sharpened, and his blood surged, a subtle sense of oppression washing over him, causing Lu Ming to catch his breath. The next moment, Shen Changfeng took a step forward, about to capture him.

"Stop." Wei Jinlin's calm voice came from the high platform.

Shen Changfeng suddenly stopped and quickly said:

"Master Wei, I have no intention of disrespecting you. It's just that I was unable to control my emotions because of the murderer who killed my brother. Please forgive me, Master Wei."

Since they were both from Chiyun County, Shen Changfeng had also worked in the Military Service Department a few years ago, so he could also address Wei Jinlin as "Master Wei".

Wei Jinlin asked, "What evidence do you have that Lu Ming is the murderer of Shen Jue?"

Shen Changfeng gave Lu Ming a cold look and said:

"I have found out that my fourth brother, Shen Jue, left the Military Service Department yesterday because he had a grudge against Lu Ming and went to settle it with him."

"When Lu Ming returned from his trip yesterday, he passed by the vicinity of the place where my fourth brother died, and the time of his passing coincided with the time of his death."

"This matter must be related to Lu Ming. I urge Master Wei to uphold justice and hand Lu Ming over to me for judgment."

Wei Jinlin suddenly spoke up: "You mean Lu Ming has the ability to create earthquakes? Is that right?"

Shen Changfeng's heart skipped a beat. Wei Jinlin seemed to know a lot about what happened yesterday?

Wei Jinlin continued:

"Shen Jue fell to his death because the ground suddenly cracked open. This may have happened naturally or was caused by the monsters that were rampaging in the city."

"I went to the site myself to see it."

"If you can't produce any new evidence, please leave."

"Yes, Master Wei." Shen Changfeng's face was stiff, and he glared at Lu Ming with resentment, feeling extremely unwilling.

He naturally knew that Shen Jue's fall to his death was likely unrelated to Lu Ming, but Shen Jue had left the Martial Arts Department to kill Lu Ming, and as a result, Lu Ming was unharmed, while Shen Jue died.

Shen Changfeng could not accept this.

The Shen family has many members, but Shen Jue and he were born of the same mother and were the closest of friends. Since Shen Jue died because of Lu Ming, he would definitely avenge him.

However, he dared not be presumptuous in front of Wei Jinlin. Since Wei Jinlin refused to release him, he could only endure it for the time being.

Lu Ming, you'd better stay hidden in the Military Service Department. Shen Changfeng's eyes flashed with malice as he gritted his teeth and left.

"Thank you, Master Wei, for standing up for me." Standing on the platform, Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief and said to Wei Jinlin.

He didn't expect that Shen Changfeng would come knocking on his door without any evidence, just because Shen Jue's death was somewhat related to him, and dare to come directly to his door demanding his release.

Even after it was discovered that Shen Jue had left the Military Service Department to kill him.

He was clearly in the right, but Shen Changfeng was being aggressive, as if the Shen family was in the right.

This gives a glimpse into the domineering style of martial arts families.

Wei Jinlin said, "Come in. I've called you here today because I have something to announce."

"Yes." Lu Ming glanced at Wei Jinlin, a flicker of excitement crossing his heart.

The Shen family's domineering attitude was completely ineffective in front of Wei Jinlin. Wei Jinlin made him leave in disgrace with just one sentence, which stemmed from his own powerful strength.

In this world, strength determines status.

He must improve his strength as soon as possible, not only in terms of supernatural abilities, but also in terms of cultivation level.

Lu Ming joined the queue, clenching his fist slightly. Now that he possessed the Qi-Boosting Pill and the Sweet Dew Powder, as long as he studied diligently, reaching the Body Refining Realm before the major exam should not be a problem.

However, after the major exam, he could no longer stay in the Martial Arts Department. With his mere Body Refining Realm cultivation, he was still too insignificant in the face of the massive Shen family.

As for joining a sect after the major exam and using the sect's power to fight against them, that's one path. However, this depends on others, so it's not a sure thing.

It would be best if he became stronger himself, so that he could move forward and backward at will.

"At least I need to be a master of meat refining!" Lu Ming thought to himself.

If given the chance, he must at least reach the pinnacle of flesh refining before he can unleash even stronger supernatural powers and have any hope of protecting himself.

"Recently, demons have been rampant around Chiyun County. Yesterday, Shen Jue was murdered, which is suspected to be the work of demons. There are still some doubts, but we must be vigilant."

On the high platform, Wei Jinlin spoke slowly.

"Now, those who have reached the Nine Breakthroughs in One Breath or above, step forward and follow me to the Grand Martial Arts Arena, where you will receive special training. The rest of you, cultivate on your own here."

Special training? Lu Ming was taken aback, a strange feeling rising in his heart.

Unexpectedly, his actions yesterday were mistaken by Wei Jinlin as the work of a demon, leading him to launch a special training program.

Seeing Chen Jinyang, Feng Qingzhu and others step forward and follow Wei Jinlin deeper into the Martial Arts Division, Lu Ming also stood up and followed the crowd.

Finally, they arrived at the depths of the Military Affairs Bureau, at a large training ground surrounded by a huge wall.

As soon as he entered, Lu Ming looked around curiously. He had seen this place before, but the door had always been closed, so he had never been inside.

Upon entering, one sees a large number of wooden stakes—or rather, iron stakes—inserted into the training ground.

The iron stakes were arranged in neat rows, with each row about ten feet apart, totaling about thirty rows. Their bluish-black luster caught the eye, carrying a slight chill.

Further inside... Lu Ming looked up, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.

Deep inside all the iron stakes, a python's body lay quietly coiled. The python's body was enormous; even coiled up, it was over ten feet tall, equivalent to the height of a single-story building.

The python's body is covered with black iron-colored scales, which look extremely hard.

Upon seeing the python, an extremely strong sense of oppression emanated from it, causing everyone to feel a tightness in their chests.

Someone in the crowd exclaimed in horror:

"A demon! There's a demon here!"

"That's... the legendary Iron-Scaled Python Demon? I think I've heard of it. Its scales are comparable to heavy armor in the army, and it can't be cut by swords!"

"Rumor has it that demon flesh is an excellent tonic, far superior to Qi-Nourishing Powder and many other pills. Could it be that Master Wei is going to give us demon flesh?"

"Are they going to make us fight that demon? Isn't that suicide?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming was shocked. So, it was a demon?

A glint of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and the wind in his vision took on color. A gray wind swept over the Iron-Scaled Python Demon, and an extremely powerful aura emanated from it, far surpassing that of Shen Changfeng whom he had just seen.

This aura had already substantially affected his condition; he was as if he were being stared at by a ferocious beast, and his body stiffened.

The sheer power of this aura was unlike anything he had ever witnessed in his life!

As for Wei Jinlin, since he didn't display much martial prowess, his usual aura was only slightly stronger than Shen Changfeng's.

On the left side of the grand martial arts arena, there was a high platform. Wei Jinlin stood on it and said:

"Monsters are monsters, and demons are demons. Don't confuse them in the future."

"This Iron-Scaled Python Demon is not the one in the city, and it is already dead. I stuck ten red sticks into its body."

"There are sixty-one of you in total, including sixteen flesh-refining martial artists. Whoever gets a red token will receive one-tenth of the demon meat."

Upon hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.

If you can get a red token, you can obtain demon flesh? That's a treasure that can greatly enhance cultivation efficiency!

A surge of passion welled up in Lu Ming's heart.

With only the Dew Powder and Qi-Boosting Pills, he could only cultivate to the level of Flesh Refining at most before the Great Examination. However, if he could obtain demon flesh, he might achieve the Great Perfection of Flesh Refining!

However, he also noticed a detail in Wei Jinlin's words: the Iron-Scaled Python Demon was actually dead.

Even though the demon is dead, it can still exude such an aura, overwhelming everyone!

Lu Ming had a vague feeling that getting a red token wouldn't be so easy.
