Chapter 44 His Star Is Not Here
It's no wonder Katsuragi made that arrangement.
The Spirit-grade Marrow Cleansing Agent can help martial artists advance their Spirit Bones, and its market price has reached a terrifying 2700 million, which is more than 9 times more expensive than the Profound-grade one!
This amount of money is almost equivalent to a quarter's expenses for the school.
"Principal Ge, may I ask what kind of martial arts prowess this person possesses who is competing with Jiang Feng?"
Upon hearing that Jiang Feng did not want to go to No. 1 Middle School for the time being, Sun Hao was overjoyed and also somewhat relieved.
Therefore, he was determined to do everything in his power to secure the ownership of this Spirit-grade Marrow Cleansing Elixir for Jiang Feng.
"Naturally, they are all Xuan bones," Ge Cheng said, pointing to the list in the sky.
"Aside from the students from Tianyuan who did not participate in this exhibition, the remaining 17 students with spiritual bone aptitude from all 13 high schools in Donglin were not assigned to the test."
"Only students with mortal bones and profound bones have come for the assessment this time."
Sun Hao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. "That's good."
At least there's still a chance to fight with the Xuan bone, but if it were a Ling bone, then it would be better to just go for it.
"Principal Ge, I don't have any problems on my end either," Jiang Feng replied.
"Good." Ge Cheng nodded approvingly. "Jiang Feng is number one on this list, so we naturally won't underestimate him. We look forward to your performance in the future."
"Of course," he added with a smile. "Jiang Feng, don't feel guilty. Even if you lose to the winner, we will give you five bottles of Xuan-level Marrow Cleansing Agent as compensation."
"Okay, Principal Ge."
"Okay, I'll let Jiang Feng know when we have the results over there."
He was number one on the list, so he would have to wait until the second and third place winners were decided before it was his turn.
"it is good."
After saying this, Ge Cheng led his men away. At that moment, the stone tablets in front of the building slowly sank, and everyone's spirits lifted.
"Let's go in and have a look around," Sun Hao suggested.
The group followed the flow of people inside.
The interior of the exhibition hall is much more magnificent than it appears from the outside. The dome, which is tens of meters high, is inlaid with countless luminous crystals, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.
Inside the enormous building, rows and rows of items protected by special crystals are displayed.
The weapons, cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, mystical treasures, and spiritual objects left Jiang Feng and his companions speechless.
"This is the Heavenly Scale, a low-grade Dao-level weapon. It is said to be able to break through all protections below the Saint Bone level and is known as the Spear of the Martial King."
Luo Feng explained from Jiang Feng's side.
Everyone's expressions tightened slightly, and Yuan Guannan asked in confusion, "A Dao-level weapon... how do you know so much about it?"
Luo Feng pointed to the side of the weapon, "It's written here."
Everyone was speechless.
"A high-grade spiritual-level cultivation technique, the Mechanical Divine Body Fusion Technique. Its blessing is divine body synchronization. Possessing this blessing allows one to resonate with the mecha, as if in symbiosis." Yuan Guannan imitated the example, stopping in front of a cultivation technique and reciting it.
Jiang Feng's heart stirred slightly. He had forgotten that there were martial artists in this world who wore mecha combat suits.
However, this requires not only extremely high martial arts aptitude, but also extremely strong mental strength and mechanical talent, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
The group continued walking forward.
Jiang Feng, walking behind, looked at Lin Lu and smiled, saying, "Why are you so quiet today?"
He had initially thought it was just his imagination, but after so long he realized that Lin Lu was unusually silent today, as if she had something on her mind.
Lin Lu's gaze swept almost imperceptibly over Ye Weiwei, then she shook her head. "Family matters..."
"Alright." Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Jiang Feng didn't press her further, but simply said, "If you can help, just let me know."
"Mmm," Lin Lu said softly.
As Jiang Feng walked forward, Lin Lu was about to follow when she was pulled back by a slender hand.
It's Ye Weiwei.
"Sister Ye Wei," Lin Lu blinked, stopped moving forward, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Weiwei didn't look at her, but stared straight ahead at Jiang Feng's back, and said softly in a voice only the two of them could hear,
"Lin, do you know Lin Feng, the one who took the test at Gate 1 today?"
Lin Lu's eyes paused almost imperceptibly for half a second before she smiled and said, "Of course I know, he's from my Lin family..."
"Isn't that a coincidence?" Ye Weiwei didn't finish her sentence before turning her head and looking directly into the other person's eyes.
"My mentor, Lin Xuan, happens to be the head of the Lin family, Lin Yuan's third daughter. I've known her for so long, but I've never heard her mention that there's anyone like you in the Lin family."
"Hehe." As if she had heard something funny, Lin Lu covered her mouth and laughed. "Sister Ye Wei, there are so many people in the Lin family, your mentor must have remembered wrong, right? Besides, as far as I know, there doesn't seem to be an elder in our Lin family named Lin Xuan?"
"interesting."
Ye Weiwei laughed along, then held up two fingers, picked up a card from her breast pocket, and waved it in front of Lin Lu.
It was an exquisite black card with the words "Lin Xuan, tutor of the History Department, Suzhou University" prominently displayed in gold lettering.
"My supervisor and I have an excellent relationship. Whenever I go out, no matter which library I go to, I always use her card, so..."
Her star-like eyes flashed. "Are you still going to pretend?"
"......."
Lin Lu's smile froze instantly. She remained silent for a long time before turning around and walking towards Jiang Feng.
"Aren't you afraid I'll tell him about this?" Ye Weiwei's words made her pause again.
Lin Lu suddenly chuckled, then returned to her usual demeanor, tilting her head and saying, "Sister Ye Wei, I don't understand what you're saying."
"Jiang Feng!" Ye Weiwei suddenly shouted.
Jiang Feng, who was walking ahead, turned around in confusion. "How come you two are so far behind?"
As he spoke, he began to walk over.
Lin Lu's expression changed slightly. She grabbed Ye Weiwei's hand and moved a few steps away.
Ye Weiwei's smile deepened. "It's nothing, it's nothing. Lin Lu was just talking about you with me."
Lin Lu's face flushed red to her ears instantly. She quickly waved her hands and scolded, "Jiang Feng, don't listen to Sister Ye Wei's nonsense!"
Jiang Feng chuckled, waved his hand, and followed Luo Feng and the others forward.
Fang Xiao, noticing this, became gloomy +1
Lin Lu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Jiang Feng leave.
She glanced deeply at Ye Weiwei beside her. For some reason, even though the girl's body showed no signs of energy fluctuations, she couldn't calm her own mind.
"You admit it?" Ye Weiwei smiled, her eyes narrowed.
Lin Lu remained silent.
Just then, Ye Weiwei's mentor walked over.
"Xiaowei, so you're here! I've been looking for you for ages. Remember to attend the discussion tomorrow, and don't be late again."
"Understood, Teacher Zhang!"
The two began to talk.
Lin Lu, standing to the side, was taken aback.
"Teacher Zhang? Not Lin..." She stopped mid-sentence.
The teacher's certificate that Ye Weiwei had been wearing on her chest had vanished without a trace, and... it wasn't even in her pocket?!
For the first time, Lin Lu's face showed an unusual seriousness.
Ye Weiwei's conversation with the tutor surnamed Zhang had just ended.
"You found out?" Ye Weiwei smiled.
It's strange, really. Even though she didn't look at Lin Lu once when she was talking to that mentor, it was as if she knew what Lin Lu was thinking.
"whee."
Lin Lu's face was now completely calm, or rather, indifferent. "Now that you know about this, what do you plan to do, Ye Weiwei?"
Ye Weiwei said seriously, "I won't do anything, I won't care about your identity, and it's none of my business how you scheme. I just want to give you a piece of advice."
"What advice?" Lin Lu raised an eyebrow.
"Don't interfere with him. The reasons are none of my concern, it's just that..."
Starlight shimmered in Ye Weiwei's eyes.
"His star is not here."
