Chapter 431
"Unlike ordinary cultivation methods and combat techniques, the method for mental power cultivation is directly imprinted in a jade slip and cannot be written on paper."
"This is the important method that will allow you to defeat your opponent tomorrow."
"Of course, it’s best if you don't need to use it."
"After all, you are our trump card; exposing your strength too early is not advantageous."
"But if the need arises, don't hesitate to use it. If the opponent is a cultivator from another kingdom, don't be polite; attack with full force."
The implication was that killing them or turning them into a fool was the best outcome.
"Understood." Isn't it just about reducing the number of enemies on the Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield?
After all, their current opponents were very likely to be their opponents on the Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield in the future.
The Open Origin Secret Realm was, after all, a place that every kingdom coveted.
Those sent here were naturally the most outstanding people from each kingdom.
The Dean of the Mobis Academy left after handing the jade slip to Qin Feng.
He believed that with Qin Feng’s ability and intelligence, he would know what to do without needing further words.
What else could he do?
Since this thing was a mental power cultivation method, it naturally required contact with mental power.
Qin Feng’s mental power was already extremely strong, far exceeding the mental power of those at the Dao-Proving realm.
So he wasn't too worried.
After cautiously splitting off only a sliver of mental power, he directly probed it into the jade slip without any hesitation.
The mental power cultivation method was carved into the jade slip.
Upon contact with his mental power, it immediately branded the method into that mental power.
Once Qin Feng withdrew his mental power, this cultivation method was already firmly imprinted in his mind.
I have to say, this was quite convenient.
If they had had this method back when he was in school, those miserable students wouldn't have had to memorize books until their heads were spinning.
How was this any different from Doraemon’s memory bread?
This was a skill for controlling mental power, not an attack or defense skill.
It allowed one to control their own mental power with greater ease.
When cultivated to the extreme, one could even use mental power with more precision than Origin Power.
Although this wasn't an attack or defense method, for Qin Feng right now, it was the most effective way to see quick results.
Because Qin Feng already possessed attack methods.
It was just that his control over his mental power wasn't that precise.
Therefore, the speed at which he condensed mental power needles wasn't fast, and it consumed more mental power.
If Qin Feng could advance his mental power control techniques before tomorrow’s match,
then when he fought using mental power needles condensed with the same amount of mental power as he used in yesterday’s team battle, his attack power would at least double.
But if, as the Dean of the Mobis Academy said, Qin Feng really attacked by condensing mental power needles with all his might,
let alone making a first-level Dao-Proving student dizzy for a few seconds,
it would be normal for them to become an idiot or even die directly.
Qin Feng’s mental power was far beyond that of a low Dao-Proving level.
Yesterday, he had already held back.
And he didn't just hold back a little; he held back an ocean.
Another night of sleepless cultivation followed.
Only this time, Qin Feng wasn't cultivating Origin Power, but improving his level of mental power control.
By the next day, he returned to the side of the arena.
To ensure the fairness and impartiality of this draw,
every contestant drew their own opponent, without passing through any official hands.
This was also because the major kingdoms didn't trust each other, so they let the contestants draw lots themselves.
After the draw was completed, the results would be posted.
Qin Feng quickly learned who his opponent was this time.
It was hard to say if it was good luck or bad luck.
The opponent Qin Feng encountered this time was not a cultivator from another kingdom,
but a cultivator from the Mobis Kingdom.
If viewed at the national level, this was a case of one of their own fighting one of their own.
And fortunately, the opponent’s strength was only at the eighth level of Entry.
They were among the weakest, aside from Qin Feng and Lin An.
When fighting this person, Qin Feng might not even need to use mental power to win the battle.
The martial arts tournament held some time ago was, after all, an internal selection for the Mobis Kingdom.
Therefore, members of other kingdoms were forbidden from watching.
So, aside from some of the older generation powerhouses of the Mobis Kingdom, no outsiders knew about Qin Feng’s unique skill.
The young people couldn't tell, and among the older generation, not many could see that this was a mental power attack.
Moreover, most of those who could see it knew about the Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield, so they wouldn't easily reveal it.
Those who didn't know had been immediately notified and warned after the battle ended.
Those who could make it this far weren't fools and wouldn't talk nonsense.
This ensured, to the greatest extent possible, that Qin Feng’s trump card would not be easily revealed before the Hundred Kingdoms Battlefield opened.
Two hundred people, one hundred matches, ten arenas.
It took only one day to completely finish the finals.
And the spots for entering the Open Origin Secret Realm were determined.
When fighting his opponent, Qin Feng’s opponent was the type who was unremarkable and had no special techniques.
Their strength was only two levels higher than Qin Feng’s.
So even though it was a bit difficult, Qin Feng won without any suspense.
But this was the first time Qin Feng had been seriously injured since coming to this world.
Although not so severe that he lost the ability to move, it was not light either.
I have to say, the gap in strength cannot be ignored.
After a month of grand proceedings, the martial arts tournament finally came to an end.
But there were still three days left until the Open Origin Secret Realm opened.
These three days were a rare time for rest and preparation.
"Why gather in this place?"
After the tournament ended, this was the first time all the members involved in the plan to eradicate the Earth Demons gathered in Yunlan City.
The one who asked this was naturally Qin Feng.
Lin An was relatively less familiar with them and wouldn't ask such questions casually.
"Don't worry, this is our territory; it’s very safe."
Beigong Yun said with confidence.
The place they gathered this time was a small teahouse.
Although it wasn't large and didn't have much foot traffic, it was, after all, a public place.
Even though they had entered the innermost private room, Qin Feng didn't feel it was that safe.
"The walls, doors, and windows of this room are all inscribed with arrays. The sound inside absolutely cannot be heard from the outside."
After Beigong Yun finished speaking, Beigong Shang followed up with an explanation.
After Beigong Shang finished, Qin Feng didn't continue to express his opinion on the previous question.
Instead, he looked Beigong Shang up and down and then said,
"It was you, right? The mysterious black-robed person. 'See you in the Royal Capital'?"
"That’s right, it was me. I originally thought that once we reached the Royal Capital and participated in the ancient ruins incident, I would ask if you were willing to be involved."
