Chapter 68: Let Feng Xiaotian Come, Let Him Hang Out With Me
"This... is this true?" Feng Ming rubbed his eyes, and the four of them looked toward Luo Xingyue.
Luo Xingyue said, "Let me introduce him; this is my son, Lingxu. His current soul power is, well, level 58."
When she said this, even Luo Xingyue herself felt it was somewhat surreal; Lingxu's improvement over this period had indeed been a bit fast.
But the facts were right before their eyes; Lingxu's soul power was incomparably stable, a normal improvement.
"Level 58!"
"My god, is he really only twelve years old?" Feng Ming asked in surprise.
His son, Feng Xiaotian, was only level 23 at eleven; barring any accidents, he would reach level 25 or 26 by twelve.
Yet Lingxu's soul power had already reached level 58.
However, even with Luo Xingyue saying this, they still found it somewhat hard to believe.
To put it bluntly, it was a matter of perspective; in their eyes, a level 58 Spirit Master, no matter how much of a genius, would be around thirty years old.
Twelve years old, and with two black ten-thousand-year soul rings.
Feng Ming said, "Then Lingxu, what is your Innate Spirit Power level?"
He was still quite concerned about this.
Lingxu said, "Actually, my talent isn't that high, just Innate level 7. Our Lingxue Academy is just starting and is in need of a large number of students. If you introduce your own people to successfully enroll, we will certainly give them priority."
"Although it's impossible to reach my level, it will definitely be much better than what you expect."
Feng Ming continued, "Innate level 7, can you let me test whether this is really true?"
Even though Luo Xingyue had confirmed it, he still couldn't believe his eyes—twelve years old, level 58 soul power, and capable of absorbing a Spirit Beast beyond his level.
Lingxu smiled and said, "Since you don't quite believe it, let's spar. Whether I have the strength of level 58 will be known with a try."
"Fine! Let me test you," Feng Ming said.
Luo Xingyue said, "This isn't a place for fighting; let's go to the newly built Spirit Fighting Platform."
The group followed Luo Xingyue, with Qian Renxue staying by Lingxu's side, while the others remained where they were; if other teachers came to apply, they could also receive them.
Standing on the brand-new Spirit Fighting Platform, Lingxu and Feng Ming released their martial souls at the same time.
A level 58 and a level 71, yet the momentum of the two was surprisingly evenly matched.
Don't let Lingxu's soul power of only level 58 fool you; his combat strength could absolutely not be described by level 58.
"Then, I'm starting." After Feng Ming finished speaking, he rushed rapidly toward Lingxu, though he still held back some strength during his attack.
He probably only used thirty percent of his strength; what if Lingxu's strength was faked?
It wouldn't be good to use his full strength and seriously injure him.
Bang...
The moment their fists collided, Feng Ming immediately withdrew his hand and took several steps back.
Lingxu said, "Don't hold back; I won't be polite."
Is this the power of a Soul King level?
"Fine, then I won't be polite," Feng Ming swung his fist and met him again.
Neither side used soul skills, but one could see a person's strength from the hand-to-hand combat after Martial Soul Possession.
At the very least, one could easily see whether Lingxu truly had the abilities a Soul King should have.
But after they fought, the four of them were even more surprised.
The level 71 Feng Ming was completely suppressed by Lingxu.
Feng Ming was not only lacking in speed, but he also couldn't gain any advantage in strength.
One must know that Lingxu's strength had been improved at least twice by the system, plus Ice and Fire Body Tempering, and he had a pair of External Spirit Bones on his arms.
Therefore, the strength of Lingxu's arms was enough to rival a Soul Saint, and with the mastered Eight Extremities Fist and Phantom Shadow Steps, Feng Ming was simply no match for Lingxu if soul skills were not used.
"Feng Ming, are you actually capable or not?" Huo Yan asked from below.
"I... you come up and try, and you'll know," Feng Ming said.
After saying this, Feng Ming moved his martial soul, channeled his level 71 soul power, and then used his third soul skill, instantly increasing his strength and defense.
However, his martial soul was not a mutated Swift Wind Two-Headed Wolf like Feng Xiaotian's, which possessed dual attributes of agility and strength.
So this soul skill of his only increased his strength and defense; his agility did not increase.
Seeing this, Lingxu immediately used his second soul skill, unfolding a pair of wings on his back, and his speed became even faster.
The booming sounds of fists and feet colliding followed one after another; the two were surprisingly evenly matched.
And neither of them used higher-level soul skills; after all, this was just a spar, not a competition or a life-and-death battle.
When the two separated, Feng Ming waved his hand directly and said, "Stop, stop. Your speed and strength are not weak, and that strange movement of yours left me helpless for a moment."
Lingxu smiled and said, "Can you believe my strength now?"
Feng Ming said, "Where does a normal Soul King get this kind of strength and speed? I'd even believe you if you said you were a Soul Emperor."
Shui Qingfeng and Huo Yan both agreed with this statement wholeheartedly.
"Since that's the case, then you must keep your word!" Lingxu looked at the four of them; although he didn't know what Leng Yushuang could bring, having people come was at least a good thing.
The group looked at each other, and Shui Qingfeng said, "Fine, I will definitely persuade them to let my two daughters come, but they still have more than half a year before they awaken their martial souls; if their talent is poor, don't refuse to accept them."
Lingxu smiled and said, "Let them all come, let them all come; I will absolutely not mind."
From Shui Qingfeng's martial soul, the Yingyu Dolphin, and the information he revealed, it was not hard to see that he was likely the father of Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er.
Although Shui Yue'er's talent was not as good as Shui Bing'er's, it was still better than most Spirit Masters.
Luo Xingyue said, "Everyone, when will you come to take up your posts? The academy will prepare separate courtyard-style housing for you."
Leng Yushuang said, "Dean, I can do it now."
"Good, and what about you all?" Luo Xingyue looked at the other three.
Feng Ming said, "I need to go home first, and then I'll see if I can bring my son Xiaotian along, so he can learn from Lingxu."
"Sigh... seeing Lingxu's strength, my son is now just over eleven years old and only at level 23 soul power, but my son Feng Xiaotian has Innate Full Spirit Power and possesses a mutated martial soul; it is I who have delayed him."
"What? Innate Full Spirit Power?"
Several people looked at Feng Ming in surprise.
Feng Ming continued: "That's right, my son Feng Xiaotian has Innate Full Spirit Power, but his soul power is only level 23. Compared to Lingxu, I am truly ashamed; I have not cultivated him well."
One has innate level 7 soul power, is twelve years old, and is level 58; the other has Innate Full Spirit Power, is eleven years old, and is level 23.
There really is no harm without comparison!
Lingxu smiled and said: "Innate Full Spirit Power, and only level 23? Sigh... if he had cultivated with me since he was young, I won't say much else, but by his age, he should have at least reached the Soul Elder realm. It is truly a pity."
"Let Feng Xiaotian come. I am one year older than him; just let him hang out with me. I guarantee his cultivation speed will be more than double what it was before!" Lingxu said directly.
He was not speaking falsely; if he were to let him cultivate the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art, it would accelerate his cultivation speed by more than just two times.
"Good!" Feng Ming said. If it really were more than double the cultivation speed, then having Feng Xiaotian come here would absolutely be worth it, though he felt a bit sorry for Shenfeng Academy.
Thinking about how he had worked conscientiously for twenty years from graduating from Shenfeng Academy to becoming a teacher, he had already considered the debt of gratitude for Shenfeng Academy's cultivation repaid.
In order not to waste his son's talent, he should come to this Lingxue Spirit Master Academy!
