Chapter 53 – Entering the Stage (3)
Wang Lin was also shocked and did not recover for a long time.
Zhou Peng was furious, thinking he had been careless earlier. How could a third-grade kid defeat him? This time, he didn’t say a word and summoned the giant python again. He formed a seal with his hands, and the python was about to open its mouth.
Wang Lin’s magnetic force was unleashed once again. The python let out a whining sound as it disappeared. Zhou Peng’s right cheek swelled. He coughed up a mouthful of blood as he was thrown back again.
As soon as he landed, he returned to the stage. His hair was completely disheveled. Ignoring the blood at the corner of his mouth, he took off his clothes and removed a yellow talisman from his chest. His cultivation suddenly increased, and his hair fluttered in the air in a strange manner.
“Wang Lin!!! That doesn’t count! I didn’t use my true strength! Let’s fight–”
Wang Lin was now confident in his strength. Without waiting for Zhou Peng, he used a pulling technique and attacked him again.
Pa! Zhou Peng, still raging, was punched in the face again, coughing up blood. This time, he didn’t get up immediately. The spiritual energy in his body was in disarray. He struggled, but couldn’t get up, and the shame overwhelmed him. He couldn’t breathe and fainted.
Everyone was silent. Apart from the deep breathing of the surrounding students, there was no other sound.
Huang Long finally recovered from his shock, his face revealing a joyful expression. The more he looked at Wang Lin, the more he liked him. He thought, “This Wang Lin is the lucky star of my Heng Yue Sect. This brat has already become this strong and doesn’t want to fight. He really needs to be scolded! I also need to carefully question him about how he did it.”
Sun Dazhu took a deep breath. He finally recovered a bit and thought, “Wang Lin must have some secret. That gourd definitely isn’t the only one! Wang Lin, you’ve tricked me well! Hmph!”
Dao Xu was stunned. The first fight could be considered luck, but the next two were real battles. What shocked him most was that after Zhou Peng released the yellow talisman, his cultivation rose to the 12th layer, the same as his, but he was still thrown off the stage with a single slap by Wang Lin’s attraction technique.
What level has this Wang Lin reached? He stared at Wang Lin for quite a long time. No matter how much he checked with his divine senses, he couldn’t see Wang Lin’s cultivation.
The red-faced elder finally recovered and thought, “When Wang Lin was accepted into the sect, I was the one who approved it. Hmph, it seems my vision wasn’t wrong!”
The middle-aged man who had received the metal piece from Wang Lin’s fourth uncle also thought, “Fate! This is fate! It seems like this kid and I have a destiny, otherwise I wouldn’t have encouraged him to join the sect. I’ve done a good deed for the Heng Yue Sect! I’ll have to talk to the sect head later.”
Standing beside him was a yellow-faced, middle-aged man. He nodded and thought, “When I tested this kid earlier, I knew that his tenacity was extraordinary. It seems he’s not normal. Hmph, if he hadn’t been stolen by Sun Dazhu, he would have been my disciple, Zhang Rencai!”
Wang Zhuo’s mind finally cleared up. He was no longer floating in the clouds, but instead thought bitterly, “So he’s this strong… I’ve mocked him so many times… He must be thinking of a way to get revenge on me… What should I do?!”
The woman named Zhou’s eyes lit up. She was absolutely certain that Wang Lin had been hiding his strength. She remembered when she thought Wang Lin was still at the 3rd layer and how he had said all those emotional things to her. Her face turned red. She thought, “This Wang Lin is really… he’s already so powerful, but he lied to me when he said he was only at the 3rd layer. Later, I’ll have to get an answer from him! Hmph!”
The woman named Xu blinked several times as she stared at Wang Lin, then looked at Wang Zhuo and thought, “How can he compare to Brother Wang Zhuo? Now is the time for Brother Wang Zhuo to show off, but this Wang Lin is too strong! He was able to knock the head of another sect’s disciple off the stage with a single slap, not just once, but three times. He’s really taking his frustration out on all of us.”
One of the inner disciples laughed secretly and observed the surrounding disciples, thinking, “This Wang Lin has been pretending to be a pig planning to eat a tiger all this time. Too cunning. Luckily, I never mocked him before, or it would have been really bad. Hehe, I’ll be able to see a good show from all those people who used to mock him.”
One of the disciples who often mocked Wang Lin thought, “It’s over! I used to point at him and laugh at him, but now he can kill me with just one finger! Your cultivation is already so high, but you’re still pretending to be weak! Too shameless! Unfortunately, this Wang Lin is known to hold a grudge among the unnamed disciples and is nicknamed the Black-Hearted King. I’ll have to go and curry favor later…”
Another disciple who used to often mock Wang Lin thought nervously, “This Wang Lin must be a cool-headed genius. That must be why he didn’t even bother responding when he was the object of my mockery! This must be like when a dog bites someone, one won’t bite back. That’s right, it must be like this. Brother Wang Lin is a genius, how could he bother with someone like me?”
The third elder of the pill house sucked in a breath of cold air. His expression was uneasy as he thought, “This is bad. I heard this person and Wang Hao are brothers and their relationship is quite good… How should I deal with this? If this were three days ago, I could have let Wang Hao go and not anger him, but now… ah, Wang Hao has become like this. If he goes and finds Wang Hao, that means I’ll have to face his wrath… This Wang Hao can’t be allowed to live! If I let him go, then he might take revenge on me! After the exchange is over, I’ll kill him and pretend he died from something else!”
Lu Song lowered his head and looked at the purple clothes on his body. He laughed bitterly and thought, “The core disciples of the Heng Yue Sect are going to be in turmoil. This Wang Lin isn’t simple. His schemes are profound. He probably hid his cultivation just for this day. Hehe, I’m afraid Wang Lin’s name will soon spread throughout the Zhao cultivation world. I must make him a friend and not an enemy!” With that, he decided how he would treat Wang Lin in the future.
Zhang Kuang’s face was filled with bitterness. When he obtained the spiritual water, he only thought it was water containing a lot of spiritual power, so he didn’t chase after Wang Lin.
