Chapter 102 Gu Qingyang

Chapter 102: Chapter 102 Gu Qingyang"How is that possible?" Shen Yufeng was also stunned. His Divine Soul had reached the early stage of the Reality Realm, on par with an ordinary Cultivator at the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm. Plus, his attack with Telekinesis was extremely fast due to his sudden surge of anger; even a Cultivator at the fourth level of the Spirit Sea Realm might not have been able to react in time. However, he had missed. "Are you a Divine Thought Master too?" Shen Yufeng swiftly came to realization. There was no aura of Spiritual Power on Ling Chen’s person, yet he had blocked his Telekinetic strike; there was only one possibility. This person was a Divine Thought Master, and a mid-rank one at that! His eyes couldn’t help but grow sharp—such a young mid-rank Divine Thought Master was unprecedented even in the history of the True Martial Academy! "What? A Divine Thought Master?" Deacon Gu was shocked and appalled. He was pondering how Ling Chen could have caught the attack. Reminded by Shen Yufeng’s outcry, he realized. Only if Ling Chen was a mid-rank Divine Thought Master could he catch the attack with such ease. But if Ling Chen was a Divine Thought Master, why didn’t he join the Divine Thought Hall and instead became an external disciple? "Slap!" Just then, a crisp slap rang out. A bright red handprint appeared on Shen Yufeng’s cheek. "You guessed right." Ling Chen spoke in a cold voice. Just now, he had also used his Divine Soul Telekinesis, taking advantage of the moment Shen Yufeng was stunned to strike decisively. Shen Yufeng’s sneaky attack on him was richly deserved! "Kid, you’re courting death!" The burning pain on his face instantly snapped Shen Yufeng back to reality. His eyes were blood-red, filled with hatred. He was a dignified Alchemist—when had he ever suffered such an affront? "Swish!" A silver needle streaked towards Ling Chen’s eyes like lightning. In a fit of rage, Shen Yufeng had directly utilized a Telekinetic weapon! Under the control of a Reality Realm Divine Soul, the silver needle was incredibly swift and its power surged. This attack was something that even a fourth-level powerhouse of the Spirit Sea Realm could not receive! "Shen Yufeng, you dare!" Deacon Gu bellowed angrily. Such a young Divine Thought Master, if killed by Shen Yufeng, would constitute a massive loss for the True Martial Academy. If the Divine Thought Hall nurtured him properly, Ling Chen was bound to advance to a high-rank Divine Thought Master! A high-rank Divine Thought Master, that was a presence comparable to the Primordial Pill Realm! "Unrepentant!" Ling Chen coldly snorted as Divine Soul Telekinesis burst forth from his Heavenly Spirit, enveloping the silver needle head-on. "Boom!" With a thudding sound, the silver needle Telekinetic weapon came to a sudden halt, its control wrested away by Ling Chen instantly! "What?" Shen Yufeng’s complexion underwent a drastic change. His Telekinetic weapon had been taken over by Ling Chen? "It seems that the slap just now wasn’t enough!" Ling Chen shook his head, and with another sweep of his Divine Soul Telekinesis, "slap," sent Shen Yufeng flying into the wall of the Alchemy Room, creating a human-shaped hole. That strike was a true display of Ling Chen’s anger. This guy actually tried to blind him; his heart was truly vicious! "Pfft!" Shen Yufeng spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with several broken teeth. "What’s going on?" Inside the Alchemy Pavilion, many people came running. When they saw the identity of the injured individual, they were stunned. Someone dared to lay hands on Shen Yufeng, a second-tier Alchemist? Then, they saw a young man walking out of the hole in the wall, approaching Shen Yufeng. "Shen Yufeng, you should be grateful that the Divine Thought Hall is supporting you; otherwise, you would have been dead long ago!" Ling Chen said coldly. "Deacon Gu, I am very disappointed with the Divine Thought Hall. There’s no need to refine the Elixirs anymore. Return to me the one million medium-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills; I’ll come to collect them in three days!" Ling Chen dropped these words and was about to leave the Alchemy Hall. "My Telekinetic Puppets!" Shen Yufeng’s voice came from behind. "These Telekinetic Puppets were meant to buy your miserable life!" seaʀᴄh thё NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ling Chen’s voice followed: "If you really want the Telekinetic Puppets, I am ready to face you on the life and death platform anytime!" True Martial Academy stipulates that students are not allowed to kill each other. But some conflicts are truly irreconcilable, hence the existence of the life and death platform for such individuals. Life or death will be determined on this platform. Once someone steps onto the life and death platform, only one can leave alive. Moreover, disputes on the life and death platform will not be interfered with by True Martial Academy. Of course, to enter the life and death platform, both parties must agree, and there must be a high-level witness from the academy. Not until Ling Chen’s figure disappeared from sight did everyone snap back to reality. "Who is this guy?" "He’s not old, but he has quite an imposing manner! Mentioning the life and death platform as soon as he speaks!" "Master Shen just mentioned the Telekinetic Puppets, could it be that even using the Telekinetic Puppets, Master Shen couldn’t deal with this youngster?" ... Everyone was discussing among themselves. Listening to everyone’s discussions, Shen Yufeng felt incredibly ashamed to the point of wanting to die! At this moment, Deacon Gu also stepped out of the Alchemy Room and spoke to Shen Yufeng, "Shen Yufeng, I will report this matter to the Hall Master truthfully." Not to mention the deal with Ling Chen or even the one million medium-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills. Just the fact that Shen Yufeng knew Ling Chen was a Divine Thought Master and still attempted to kill him was enough for the Hall Master not to let Shen Yufeng off lightly. Divine Thought Masters are too scarce, even rarer than Spiritual Bodies! And Ling Chen is so young and yet already stronger than Shen Yufeng, who has cultivated for dozens of years! Such a Divine Thought Master genius has limitless future achievements. However, Shen Yufeng attempted to wipe out this kind of genius. How could the Hall Master possibly let Shen Yufeng go? Hearing that Deacon Gu would report to the Divine Thought Hall Master, Shen Yufeng immediately panicked. "Deacon Gu, there is room for discussion! I was just acting out of extreme anger just now; it wasn’t intentional!" Shen Yufeng pleaded anxiously. In recent years, the Divine Thought Hall has not found a single Divine Thought Master genius, which has even driven the Hall Master to desperation. If the Hall Master knew that he had attempted to kill a Divine Thought Master genius, he might really be finished. He has been cultivating for many years to reach the early stage of the Solid Realm. When compared to a genius who is far more powerful and immeasurably younger, it’s obvious what decision the Hall Master would make. Even, to recruit Ling Chen, he wouldn’t be surprised if the Hall Master decided to execute him. Deacon Gu said coldly, "The Hall Master will make his own decision regarding this matter." With that, he too turned to leave, leaving only Shen Yufeng with a face filled with despair. ... "What? A Divine Thought Master genius appeared in the outer court?" Within the Divine Thought Hall, a grey-robed elder stood up in shock upon hearing Deacon Gu’s report. This grey-robed elder was none other than the Hall Master of the Divine Thought Hall, Gu Qingyang. Over the years, he had sent people to scour Zhenwu Prefecture for Divine Thought Master geniuses, but to no avail. To think that one would appear in the outer court. "Yes." Deacon Gu replied respectfully. "Where is he, take me there immediately!" Gu Qingyang came over, grabbed Deacon Gu’s sleeve, and was eager to leave. "Hall Master, please wait, this matter is not so simple." Deacon Gu hurriedly said. "Alright, let’s talk while walking." Gu Qingyang insisted. With the Hall Master pulling him, Deacon Gu could only say, "His name is Ling Chen, a new student who joined this year. He just entered the outer court not long ago and has already defeated Bai Wentian, one of the nine major students of the outer court. As for his Divine Soul cultivation, I’m not clear. All I know is that Shen Yufeng is no match for him." "Shen Yufeng?" Gu Qingyang’s eyes widened, "That would mean he’s reached the Reality Realm?" "Hurry up!" Gu Qingyang quickened his pace. "Hall Master, Ling Chen has already been offended by Shen Yufeng. Not long ago, Shen Yufeng made an attempt on Ling Chen’s life and was taught a lesson by Ling Chen!" Deacon Gu revealed the crux of the matter.
