Chapter 263: A friendship that stood the test
"However, there is one person's reaction you will definitely be interested in."
When Luo Feng mentioned this person, a smile couldn't help but hang on his face; it was clear he was very happy.
"How is Zhang Haobai?"
A smile also appeared on Zhang Jie's face.
If one were to ask who left the deepest impression on him at Third High School besides Luo Feng, it had to be Zhang Haobai.
However, unlike Luo Feng, who was a close friend and good brother who had been a classmate,
this guy Zhang Haobai, although he shared the same surname Zhang as him, was their "enemy."
To be precise, Zhang Haobai, who came from a wealthy family in Yangzhou City,
relied on his family background to throw his weight around at Third High School,
holding a contemptuous attitude toward students like Zhang Jie and Luo Feng who wanted to rely on their own efforts to become martial artists.
With no golden finger and still being a small fry, Zhang Jie and Luo Feng had suffered no shortage of grief from Zhang Haobai over the past two years.
Yet this guy managed his sense of proportion very well; they couldn't find any handle to report him.
"Hehe."
"That guy transferred schools directly after knowing you became a Spiritual Master."
Thinking of the pathetic figure of Zhang Haobai sneaking away that day, Luo Feng only felt a sense of relief.
"That guy got off easy!"
Zhang Jie snorted coldly and said.
Whether before being sent to the Myriad Realms by the Great Luck or after being turned into countless parts and sent to the Myriad Realms by the Great Luck,
he, Zhang Jie, had never been someone who repaid evil with kindness.
Repaying evil with kindness, how then to repay kindness?
Only repay kindness with kindness, and repay evil with evil!
However, it was still only the second year of high school, and this guy Zhang Haobai was not yet as insane as he was in the original work during the third year,
daring to repeatedly try to obstruct Luo Feng from taking the martial artist exam, and even daring to take action against Luo Feng's father, Luo Hongguo.
The current conflict had not yet fully intensified; it was just friction between classmates,
and Zhang Jie also decided to be generous and not pursue Zhang Haobai anymore.
His current energy had to be put into improving his strength; after he became a War God,
or even a parliament-level powerhouse, Zhang Haobai would be an insignificant small character.
"He did get off easy!"
Luo Feng also hadn't expected Zhang Haobai to be so decisive, not even seeing Zhang Jie's face,
and relying on a piece of news of unknown truth, he so decisively chose to transfer schools.
Although a bit pathetic, in reality, he hadn't suffered any losses.
Looking at it this way, this guy was afraid he had an expert pointing him in the right direction!
"Let's not mention that disappointing guy Zhang Haobai anymore. Madman, catch."
Zhang Jie threw something to Luo Feng.
"What is it?"
Luo Feng caught the object with a wave of his hand, and then, seeing clearly what it was, he was stunned,
incoherently refusing: "A-Jie, I, I can't accept this!"
The thing Zhang Jie threw to him was clearly the key to the house in the community from before!
Zhang Jie's meaning could not be more obvious: this was to let them move in.
"It's just temporarily lent to you to live in, not given to you. Accept it."
Zhang Jie smiled indifferently.
"But, but that is the home of you and Uncle Zhang and the others!"
Luo Feng still insisted on refusing.
That place carried Zhang Jie's memories; as a good brother, he shouldn't go and destroy it.
"With me around, everywhere is home!
Besides, haven't we already moved the things inside over?"
Zhang Jie, who planned to resurrect the parents of this life in the future, didn't care much about this "home."
Where home is and what place it is in is not important; the most important thing is the people living inside.
As long as the family is all together, everywhere is home.
"This..."
Luo Feng stammered, wanting to say something more.
"Madman, I'm not doing this entirely for you.
With your talent, becoming a formal martial artist next year is not a problem,
and climbing stairs for a few more months is a small matter, but have you thought about Luo Hua?"
Zhang Jie's next sentence completely blocked Luo Feng's mouth.
"Luo Hua..."
Thinking of his disabled younger brother, Luo Feng could no longer say the words of refusal.
It would be one thing for him and his physically sound parents to climb stairs; at most, it would be a bit tiring.
But Luo Hua was disabled due to a car accident in his childhood and had to have his limbs amputated and sit in a wheelchair;
one can imagine the difficulty of him going up and down stairs.
The reason he had rarely gone home during this period, besides First High School having more courses than Third High School,
was that climbing stairs with difficulty in moving was not a reason.
"Then I will shamelessly accept it. But A-Jie, don't worry,
after I become a martial artist, I will definitely return the house to you exactly as it is!"
For the sake of his younger brother, Luo Feng finally decided to accept.
Then, he added: "By the way, I will also pay the rent according to the market price."
"Come on, call me landlord and let me hear it!" Zhang Jie teased.
He didn't refuse Luo Feng's proposal to pay rent,
because he knew this was a matter of Luo Feng maintaining his dignity in front of him!
They were good brothers, close friends, not one being the vassal of the other!
Even if they were currently unequal in wealth, force, and talent,
the personality between them was equal.
"Landlord brother, about this month's rent, you see..."
Luo Feng deliberately begged pitifully.
"Forget it, this month's rent is waived!"
Zhang Jie waved his hand and said very heroically.
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
Then the two looked at each other and laughed; their friendship had once again stood the test.
"It's time for a wave of consumption."
Sending off Zhang Jie, who was preparing to go back to discuss the moving matters, he took out his tablet computer,
and opened the exclusive website of the Limit Martial Arts Hall, Limit Home.
He still had the opportunity given by the Limit Martial Arts Hall to freely choose one combat technique,
one movement technique, and one guidance technique secret manual!
"First is the guidance technique."
Zhang Jie took the lead in opening the guidance technique module.
Compared to other combat techniques and movement techniques that increase combat power,
a guidance technique that can significantly improve cultivation efficiency is more important.
He carefully flipped through the webpage and discovered that guidance techniques can be divided into four levels from low to high.
C-level: Basic amplification of 2-3 times, mainly opened to entry-level warrior-level martial artists.
B-level: Amplification of 6-7 times, requires warrior-general-level authority to unlock.
A-level: Amplification of 10-15 times, corresponding to War God-level powerhouses;
S-level: Exclusive to the Limit Martial Arts Hall, amplification can reach dozens of times.
The representative works among them are the nine top-tier guidance techniques created by Hong.
"Whale Absorption Technique: A-level guidance technique.
Nine-Fold Hunyuan: Created by Lei Shen, the world's second-ranked top-tier guidance technique."
Zhang Jie flipped through the introductions of each guidance technique one by one.
Finally, one guidance technique attracted his attention:
"Black Hole Derivation Method, ultimate guidance technique, extremely difficult to cultivate,
and most importantly, more suitable for Spiritual Masters."
"The black hole that swallows everything..."
Zhang Jie couldn't help but think of the martial art that started their Zhang Jie's rise, "Northern Dark Divine Art";
the worlds the two were in were different, and the strength was also different, but the philosophy was extremely similar.
"This is it!"
Upon seeing the Black Hole Derivation Method, Zhang Jie determined that it was the guidance technique he needed. ===== CHAPTER 264 =====
