Chapter 115: Chapter 92: Tempering Force Like a Whip
That Zhang Xuan, he seemed to be just like that!
He had heard about the First-grade Yuan Pool and the Holy-grade Source Pool, which could absorb hundreds of Heavenly Mandate Vitality streams, but to absorb tens of thousands at once, even transforming his own horse into a Primordial Beast...
This was indeed the first time he had heard of such a thing!
Could it be... that guy was the so-called “Mandate Chaos Master” mentioned by the others?
It couldn’t be such a coincidence, could it?
“Should I report him?”
Just as the thought crossed his mind and he was about to speak out, Liu Tianzheng’s fist suddenly clenched tight. “No! Mingyue is still his student at the moment. If this guy really has issues, Yue’er will definitely be taken away... If that happens, our entire clan will be implicated! The most crucial thing is whether or not he is actually one, which still needs to be determined...”
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but ask, “Do you know... besides these, are there any other characteristics?”
Xu Xin said, “I don’t know much else specifically, but it’s said that these people have ferocious faces and are extremely vicious, recognizable at a glance. However, they are too rare; in the entire Source World, over countless years, only one or two have appeared. Not just me, even Lord Ling doesn’t have detailed knowledge; he also learned some information from the records...”
Liu Tianzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
The Source World was vast and endless, and the Han Yuan Dynasty where he resided was just a drop in the ocean. Such a huge place had only seen one or two such individuals over countless years; it wouldn’t be so coincidental for him to encounter one!
He should not be so unlucky.
Talking like this, that Zhang Xuan was probably just using some special methods to absorb a few more Heavenly Mandate Vitality streams. He was likely not the rare Mandate Chaos Master.
After all, he seemed quite amiable and handsome, not like someone vicious and evil.
“What is it? Does Baiyan City really have one?”
Seeing his unusual expression, Xu Xin looked over in confusion.
“That’s not the case. I was just thinking about my daughter Liu Mingyue. During this Source Pool evaluation, she absorbed 24 Heavenly Mandate Vitality streams. Her talent is quite good. I wonder if she has the chance to become a Life Guardian like you...”
Liu Tianzheng gave an embarrassed smile and hurriedly changed the subject.
“24 streams? For a Fifth Grade Source Pool, that’s quite good. Which grade of the Furnace was ignited?” Xu Xin looked over.
Liu Tianzheng replied, “With the help of the Lingyun Beast’s blood essence, she fortuitously ignited the Peak of Pinnacle!”
Xu Xin’s eyes lit up, “That’s a very good budding talent. Clan head Liu is quite lucky. In that case, when you are free, bring her over for me to see. If suitable, I will take her as my apprentice!”
“Thank you, Lord Xu...” Liu Tianzheng sighed with relief.
As long as she could be taken under his tutelage, even if that Zhang Xuan was a Mandate Chaos Master, Liu Mingyue should be safe. It was like preparing in advance.
“Hmm! You’re welcome!”
Xu Xin waved his hand, “This is the Destiny Plate entrusted to me by Lord Ling, three pieces, ten million Origin Currency!”
Liu Tianzheng’s heart twitched, and he immediately nodded, “Yes!”@@@@
Indeed pricey!
School Head Lu had given him one for just two million, whereas here, three cost ten million, making each one approximately 3.33 million!
But even though it was expensive, it was better than not having any. With proper management, he could easily make back his investment and even gain a large profit.
Of course, that is assuming he didn’t let someone like Zhang Xuan mix in...
“Arrange some accommodation for me, I might need to stay here for about half a month. Also, prepare some beautiful women for me; having been under Lord Ling’s strict control for so many days, it’s been quite a while since I indulged... Regardless, this time I intend to enjoy myself multiple times!”
Xu Xin waved his hand.
He had initially intended to warn them. Since they spoke first, he felt no need to continue speaking.
“Zhang Laoshi, I was wrong...”
Just stepping out of the classroom, he saw Liu Mingyue still kneeling at the door. Her dark eyes were determined, devoid of the confusion she had before.
“Since demands were set, they must be followed. If you didn’t meet them, you could have anticipated this outcome...”
Zhang Xuan shook his head. “You may leave. Our teacher-student bond is over. Even if you kneel to death here, it won’t change anything!”
“Teacher...”
Liu Mingyue’s face paled, about to say more, when the sound of footsteps approached and immediately her father’s displeased voice rang out, “Mingyue, what are you doing?”
“I...”
Liu Mingyue shuddered slightly and quickly turned around, only to see Liu Tianzheng, the clan head, striding over, already close by.
“Dad...” Liu Mingyue lowered her head.
“Follow me home!”
With a snort, Liu Tianzheng looked at Zhang Xuan nearby, “Zhang Laoshi, you are indeed talented and held in high regard by City Lord Yu, School Head Lu, and even Patriarch Chen, but letting my daughter kneel outside your classroom door without giving her any attention is perhaps too arrogant...”
“Dad, it wasn’t Zhang Laoshi who asked me to kneel; I chose to do it myself...”
Seeing her father’s misunderstanding, Liu Mingyue hurriedly explained.
“You?” Liu Tianzheng was startled.
Liu Mingyue nodded. “Yes, I didn’t meet the demands Zhang Laoshi set, and he no longer took me as his disciple. I knelt here just hoping he would change his mind...”
“Demands?”
Liu Tianzheng frowned. “Are you talking about the note in the Silk Pouch that asked you to double your strength overnight to 1.2 horsepower?”
“Yes...” Liu Mingyue’s face was full of embarrassment.
The Silk Pouch was supposed to be opened today by her, but her father opened it last night...
Liu Tianzheng waved his hand in anger, “Doubling your strength in one night? That’s absurd! It’s obviously just an excuse, and only someone as young as you would believe it...”
Before he could finish, Yu Xiaoyu stepped forward and the bells on her body jingled vigorously. “Liu Clan Head, please think carefully before you speak! Just because you can’t achieve it doesn’t mean others can’t!”
“Indeed! If Teacher sets such a demand, it means it can be achieved.” Hong Yi also spoke out unabashedly.
If it were just them being scolded, they might have borne it, being that the accuser was an elder and a clan head, but to doubt their teacher warranted a rebuttal.
“Are you saying someone really can do it?”
Liu Tianzheng frowned.
“Of course! If Liu Clan Head doesn’t believe it, I can prove it to you now. My strength yesterday was only 0.5, even less than Mingyue, and many were present, so there’s no room for deceit.”
Taking a deep breath, Yu Xiaoyu didn’t waste more words but stepped forward, lowering her shoulders and raising her eyebrows, then swiftly threw a punch.
Hiss!
The air burst into a series of sonic booms, like the crack of a whip, due to the immense strength.
“This is... Tempering Force like a whip, physical strength surpassing 1.5 horsepower to achieve such a blow! A threefold increase overnight, how is this possible?”
Liu Tianzheng’s pupils dramatically dilated.
Although there was no Strength Measuring Formation present, he still recognized that her strength was twined like a rope, tough as iron, and definitely over 1.5 horsepower!
