Cultivation Family
In the cultivation class.
Lin Shen finished practicing the Blazing Sun Palm. He stopped in satisfaction and let out a long breath.
[Blazing Sun Palm (Beginner 60%)]
“It only increased by 1% in three days. That’s too slow. As expected, I have to rely on my clones.
“After breaking through to the fifth level, I’ll let Clone 1 focus on cultivating the Blazing Sun Palm.”
Naturally, there was no lack of battles in the competition. Those with higher cultivation levels wouldn’t necessarily win. Martial techniques were also a very important factor.
A student with Proficient Blazing Sun Palm at the fourth level of the Qi Transformation Stage might be able to defeat a student with Beginner Blazing Sun Palm at the fifth level.
Although not many ordinary students in Willow Academy had reached Proficient in the Blazing Sun Palm, there were at least four or five of them.
If Lin Shen wanted to obtain a good ranking in the competition, he’d better reach Proficient in the Blazing Sun Palm!
With a plan in mind, Lin Shen heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and saw Kong Hong standing a few ters away, sizing him with a strange expression.
“Sir?”
“‘I’ve heard from Gao.” Kong Hong looked at Lin Shen in surprise. “Initially, I didn’t believe him when he said that your resistance to attacks was outstanding, but now it seems true!”
He had to believe it. All new training partners would feel sore the next day, but Lin Shen was still alive and kicking.
Kong Hong had observed him for a while and confird that not only didn’t Lin Shen have any bruises, but he was also full of energy. He didn’t look like he had been a sandbag for an hour yesterday.
That was strange. Lin Shen wasn’t cultivating a technique that enhanced his defensive ability. Where did he get such outstanding resistance?
Hearing Kong Hong’s doubts, Lin Shen could only shrug and smile.
He couldn’t say that he had a cheat code, right?
After thinking for a mont, Kong Hong could only tell himself that it was Lin Shen’s natural physical advantage, just like so people were born with divine strength.
“Since you’re so suitable for this part-ti job, work hard, and buy more spirit beast at to nourish yourself. Improve your cultivation level and try to get a good ranking in the competition.”
After giving Lin Shen so encouragent, Kong Hong turned around and left.
After class, Lin Shen had just changed his clothes and walked out of the stadium when Zheng Hongsheng caught up to him from behind and threw an arm over Lin Shen’s shoulder.
“Lin Shen, what did Mr. Kong say to you just now?”
“That’s right. You went to talk to him yesterday.” Xu Yuan also ca from behind and walked side by side with the two of them.
“It’s nothing. I just asked Mr. Kong to help find a part-ti job.”
“I see.”
“It seems Mr. Kong introduces part-ti jobs to his students every year.”
Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan knew Lin Shen’s financial situation very well and understood why he needed a part-ti job. In order not to hurt their good friend’s pride, the two of them chuckled and tacitly changed the topic.
“Xu Yuan, I heard that you’re dating Qian Hui from Class B?” Zheng Hongsheng suddenly winked at Xu Yuan and said with a smile, “Good job, bro. You got a girlfriend without breaking a sweat.”
“Really?” Lin Shen looked at Xu Yuan in surprise.
“Don’t listen to Zheng Hongsheng’s nonsense.” Xu Yuan cleared his throat. “We haven’t officially confird our relationship yet.”
“It’s only a matter of ti. I don’t care. When you close the deal, you’re going to have to buy us dinner.”
“No problem.”
Xu Yuan agreed without hesitation. He couldn’t help but smile, apparently very pleased.
At this mont, there was a commotion ahead.
Zheng Hongsheng looked in the direction of the noise, and his eyes widened.
“Holy crap! It’s them. Why are they here at this ti?”
Lin Shen turned around, and his expression changed slightly.
The people Zheng Hongsheng was talking about were a group of young n and won.
There were about ten of them, all of whom were well-dressed, and their deanor carried a faint sense of arrogance.
The disciples of influential families!
Those words imdiately appeared in Lin Shen’s mind.
In Willow Academy, these people of influential cultivation families were actually a very special group.
They rarely interacted with ordinary students and hardly ever ca to the academy. When they did show up, they seed to be symbolically fulfilling their school obligations.
However, that was understandable. After all, cultivation families had deep foundations and could hire Bright Aperture cultivators or even real cultivator masters to guide their disciples in their cultivation. There was no need for them to co to the academy to listen to a group of Long Breath teachers.
Because of this, in Willow Academy, or any other academy, these people and ordinary students were two very separate groups.
Most of the disciples of influential families looked down on ordinary students. Even if ordinary students took the initiative to approach them and try to get close to them, they would be ignored.
At this mont, more than ten disciples of influential families appeared in the academy at the sa ti, and they imdiately attracted the attention of many students, who gathered around and pointed at them.
“The leader is Yan Xing, right?”
“And Zhao Xueying!”
“What are they doing to her at this ti?”
“Who knows.”
Lin Shen sized up the group in a discreet manner.
Among the ten or so people, a man and a woman were the most eye-catching. They were surrounded by the others like stars surrounding the moon.
The two of them were Yan Xing and Zhao Xueying.
...
Yan Xing was tall and had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He had a transcendent temperant about him as if no one here was worthy of his attention.
Zhao Xueying wasn’t as showy, but her back was straight as she walked, and her footsteps were light and smooth. She also gave off an aura that couldn’t be ignored.
Most of the male students were looking at her.
In addition to her talent, Zhao Xueying was also a beautiful woman with fair skin and fuller breasts than other girls of her own age.
Her breasts heaved up and down as she walked, and the boys’ eyes moved with them.
Lin Shen suddenly thought of sothing. He patted Zheng Hongsheng, whose eyes were about to pop out, and asked in a low voice,
“Do you know who Yang Zhongyi is?”
Zheng Hongsheng ca back to his senses and said without thinking, “Of course, I do. He’s the young master of the Yang family, one of the five famous families. Everybody in the academy knows who he is.”
Lin Shen said, “I don’t.”
Xu Yuan said, “Neither do I.”
Zheng Hongsheng almost choked.
...
It was not until Lin Shen signaled him with his eyes to keep talking that he explained reluctantly.
There were many cultivation families in Dragonside City. According to their backgrounds, they were ranked from top to bottom into three great surnas, five famous families, and ten preeminent clans. They were collectively called the eighteen influential families.
Many of the high-ranking officials of the three great sects that ruled Dragonside City ca from these eighteen families.
Any mber of these families was undoubtedly a colossus to ordinary people!
Yang Zhongyi’s Yang family and Yan Xing’s Yan family were two of the five famous families.
The Zhao Family that Zhao Xueying ca from was one of the three great surnas.
Other than these eighteen cultivation families, there were also many cultivation families that had once been glorious but had now declined.
They were called humble families.
In terms of their tradition and strength, they were only slightly better than so cultivation families that began to rise two to three generations ago.
After listening to Zheng Hongsheng’s explanation, Lin Shen couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
He didn’t know the cultivation families had so much background information.
More importantly, Yang Zhongyi was much more famous than he had thought.
When he thought about it again, it was very rare that soone like Yang Zhongyi would talk to him like an equal.
He found Yang much more likable than those other disciples of influential families, who did things their own way and looked at the surrounding students with arrogance and contempt.
Shaking his head, Lin Shen looked away from those people and patted Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan.
“Let’s go.”
The two of them ca back to their senses and left the academy with Lin Shen.
