Chapter 1252: Chapter 1250: Make Your Move
A few days before the exam, Lin Feng took a careful stroll around the villa and rearranged several formations, suppressing the excessively concentrated spiritual energy to a more reasonable level. Although the energy remained abundant, it was no longer as overwhelming as before. Lin Feng didn’t waste the excess spiritual energy, redirecting it underground instead. Nourishing the land with spiritual energy would yield benefits to its inhabitants, and it would also make things easier for him later if he decided to construct a Hidden World here.
The Old Monster and others naturally noticed this change and showed expressions of delight. While concentrated spiritual energy was beneficial, excessive amounts could turn into poison. Lin Feng’s ability to regulate the spiritual energy to an optimal level ant they could cultivate without concerns and simultaneously keep this area hidden from other cultivators. This was an accomplishnt that only Lin Feng could achieve.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the makeup exam arrived. Early in the morning, Lin Feng had already made all the necessary arrangents. The Old Monster and his companions were positioned in various corners of the exam venue. If anyone dared to sabotage the exam again, Lin Feng wouldn’t hold back.
The Old Monster and his crew understood the importance of this task. Following Lin Feng’s instructions, they concealed themselves to bait anyone attempting to stir trouble...
At the sa ti, as the Old Monster and his companions were hiding, Pu Zhe and Jin Shi had just returned to Tianhai City. Pu Zhe recalled that he had left without confirming the outco last ti, so he imdiately turned to a nearby fruit vendor and asked, "Auntie, I just got back from out of town. I heard that the students at Yingbo University failed their exams. Is that true?"
Pu Zhe’s tone was anxious, as though he truly cared about Yingbo University. But in truth, it was all an act. To his credit, Pu Zhe’s performance was convincing enough to deceive the fruit vendor.
"Oh, that? Yes, sothing like that happened. But I’ve heard that several schools, including Yingbo University, are organizing a makeup exam today. It’s said that the students probably perford poorly due to weather conditions. Anyhow, most people believe that Yingbo University wouldn’t let sothing so incompetent happen," the fruit vendor eagerly replied to Pu Zhe. The issue had been hotly talked about for several days, and the auntie was well aware of it. As she ntioned, Yingbo University was a prestigious institution in Tianhai; a mass failure was unlikely to begin with.
"Makeup exam? That’s... that’s good..." Pu Zhe froze montarily upon hearing the reply, muttered sothing to himself, then turned to leave with Jin Shi. However, his expression darkened. After putting so much effort into ensuring the students’ failure last ti, now there was a makeup exam? All his efforts were wasted.
Jin Shi was equally perplexed. Logically, such a situation shouldn’t have occurred. How could a makeup exam happen so suddenly? What had gone wrong? The two exchanged a glance, reading the confusion in each other’s eyes. They both found the situation odd!
Regardless, they couldn’t allow the makeup exam to proceed as planned. Otherwise, their previous efforts would all have been in vain. With this thought, they imdiately headed to Yingbo University. Makeup exam or not, with them present, the outco would remain unchanged—even if the exam were retaken a hundred tis...
......
At Yingbo University, things seed calm for the most part, though Ding Wan’er and Leng i were visibly tense. Back then, they had made solemn promises to the leadership, and if they failed again this ti, they would have no way to answer to their superiors. Their faces were marked with worry and gravity; they desperately wished for nothing to go wrong.
Lin Feng approached from a distance, noticed the nervous deanor of the two won, and chuckled lightly. Walking over to them, he said, "Relax, don’t worry. I’m here; there won’t be any problems."
If anyone else had said this, it might have co across as arrogant boasting. But since it was Lin Feng who spoke, Ding Wan’er and Leng i instantly felt reassured and even broke into smiles. They had grown accustod to Lin Feng’s seemingly omnipotent abilities. His words implied that everything was already arranged, putting their minds at ease. They didn’t say much in response, simply standing next to Lin Feng as they watched the students enter the examination venue.
After the students entered the venue, Lin Feng closed his eyes, releasing his Divine Sense to envelop the surrounding space completely. Last ti, his absence had allowed such mischief to occur. This ti, he was determined to see who dared stir trouble at Yingbo University!
However, after waiting for over an hour, nothing happened. Just as Lin Feng was about to conclude that the opposition wouldn’t act again, an anomaly occurred. Several students in the exam hall suddenly exhibited the sa behavior as last ti—they beca dazed, utterly unaware of how to answer questions. Their minds seed blank, as if they had no thoughts or intentions!
Lin Feng, of course, wouldn’t let such a situation happen. With a swift movent of his Divine Sense, he identified two unfamiliar n outside the exam hall. Judging by their attire, they didn’t appear to be from Huaxia, surprising Lin Feng. He hadn’t anticipated foreigners coming here to cause trouble.
Now that they had been discovered, there was no way he would let them leave. But Lin Feng also suspected there might be additional saboteurs, and he didn’t want to risk being lured away from his post. To ensure the exam proceeded smoothly, he imdiately instructed the Old Monster and others to capture the two foreigners. He would deal with them himself after the exam ended.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s Divine Sense directives, the Old Monster and his crew quickly moved toward Pu Zhe and Jin Shi’s location. This left Pu Zhe and Jin Shi stunned—they hadn’t expected to be discovered. Jin Shi, seeing this, began to panic. He rembered the warnings their master had given them before heading out, cautioning that Huaxia was a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Encountering a powerful cultivator would spell trouble.
With that thought, Jin Shi dragged Pu Zhe with him, and with a sudden tremor of their figures, they vanished. The Old Monster and his team, unwilling to let them escape, imdiately gave chase!
By coincidence, Jin Shi soon led Pu Zhe into the forest surrounding the Heaven Profound Spirit Immortal Formation. With no one around, Pu Zhe suddenly shook off Jin Shi’s hand, leaving him bewildered and confused about what the third senior brother intended to do!
"Third Senior Brother, what are you doing? We need to leave here imdiately," Jin Shi said anxiously. Seeing the Old Monster and others approaching, he felt the urgency to escape. If they stuck to their previous plan, there was a risk of disaster—exactly the kind their master had warned them about.
But while Jin Shi wanted to leave, Pu Zhe had no such intention. Instead, he turned around and looked at the pursuing group without any hint of panic. After all, the strength of the Old Monster and his team was far inferior to theirs, so there was no reason for them to be alard at this mont.
"Fourth Junior Brother, calm down. They’re just a few people—there’s no need to be so anxious," Pu Zhe said nonchalantly to Jin Shi. Truthfully, he had always doubted their master’s warnings. How could the experts of Huaxia compare to the Haotian Sect? He was curious to see what abilities these individuals possessed.
Looking at the Old Monster and his crew, Pu Zhe grew even more confident. Just at this level? Who were they trying to scare? With the items their master needed already safely sent back by their allies, Pu Zhe and Jin Shi had nothing to worry about. This was the perfect opportunity to toy with the group in front of them. A bunch of old geezers still at this level—it was utterly laughable!
"Third Senior Brother, this... we should head back. Otherwise, Master will be furious!" Jin Shi panicked further upon hearing Pu Zhe’s intention to stay. He tried to persuade him to leave quickly; after all, this was Huaxia, not South Korea. If they made a move here and attracted stronger experts, what then?
"Relax. These fools can’t do anything to us," Pu Zhe said dismissively. From his perspective, none of them posed a significant threat—except perhaps the Old Monster, who was a slight nuisance. The others were inconsequential. Even if they clashed here, there wouldn’t be any danger.
The Old Monster and his crew finally caught up and were surprised to see Pu Zhe and Jin Shi still lingering in place. "Why aren’t you running?" the Old Monster asked, baffled by their behavior. If they were indeed the perpetrators Lin Feng spoke of, shouldn’t they be fleeing upon being discovered? Yet, here they were standing their ground. What was going on?
"You guys think you can intimidate us? What a joke—absolute nonsense!" Pu Zhe laughed upon hearing the Old Monster speak. He found his remark amusing—was this re Infinitesimal Realm expert seriously thinking he could contain them? Utterly delusional!
"Attack!" The Old Monster, seeing the two just standing there, lost his patience completely. He had no interest in wasting words on these arrogant troublemakers. Though their strength might exceed his, there was still a chance for victory in a life-or-death clash.
"You’re not worthy of fighting . You’re just not at the level," Pu Zhe said mockingly, his tone dripping with sarcasm. He considered the idea of challenging the Old Monster laughable—even insulting—that the latter would dare think he was on par.
Hearing Pu Zhe’s words, the Old Monster and his crew fell silent, stunned by the sheer audacity of the foreigner. To say the Old Monster wasn’t qualified to fight him was truly brazen. However, remaining vigilant, they examined Pu Zhe’s strength carefully. No matter how much they observed, though, all they could discern was that Pu Zhe seed to be at the Infinitesimal Realm. Nothing extraordinary.
By this point, the Old Monster and his team were done wasting ti. Without hesitation, they unleashed their aura. In an instant, a fiery blaze erupted, painting the skies red as though the Fire God himself had descended onto the land!
