CHAPTER 30: CHAPTER 30: ZHANG LINGFENG, THIS IS THE ELITE CLASS

"Mr. Hong, congratulations on gaining a new student in the elite class. Zhang Lingfeng just underwent testing, his Combat Power reached 15.2, and he has awakened three lines of Qi Sensitivity. Now I hand him over to you."

Yang Liru said.

Mr. Hong’s name is Hong Lixin.

He is a powerful Elemental Martial Artist, with Combat Power close to 40.0, highly respected in the school, and has cultivated many Martial Dao experts over the years.

"Oh, the Combat Power exceeded the standard by so much. It seems you found it challenging to awaken Qi Sensitivity."

Hong Lixin scrutinized Zhang Lingfeng and said.

Usually focusing attention on the elite class students, Hong Lixin didn’t know about Zhang Lingfeng’s feats in recent days.

"Mr. Hong, you should know, Zhang Lingfeng awakened the first and third Qi Sensitivity lines within just less than ten days apart."

Yang Liru explained.

"What did you say?"

Hong Lixin was dumbfounded.

"Mr. Hong, there is something I must tell you, Zhang Lingfeng is exceptionally talented. Ever since he became a novice Martial Artist, it’s like he unlocked some potential..."

Yang Liru took Hong Lixin aside and recounted everything that had happened with Zhang Lingfeng from beginning to end.

"The school actually has such talent. It was my oversight. Ms. Yang, rest assured, since he has entered the elite class, his cultivation can no longer be left to himself."

Hong Lixin looked at Zhang Lingfeng with eyes full of surprise and excitement.

"His Combat Power has improved dramatically during this time, likely an explosion of potential. If he can’t harness this Power, once the momentum weakens, it won’t be easy to progress further in the future.

I have encountered such students before, and I have a complete set of cultivation methods. Rest assured, I won’t let him fall into mediocrity, nor will I allow his talent to be buried.

Perhaps this year, our school might indeed see a student enter Starry Sky University."

Hong Lixin was very excited.

"Hearing you say this, I’m relieved. In any case, you must change his cultivation habits."

Yang Liru sighed in relief.

Her fear was that Zhang Lingfeng, due to his cultivation attitude, would decline from a genius to an ordinary person.

"Alright, leave him to me!"

Hong Lixin was full of confidence and personally saw Yang Liru off.

"Just now, Ms. Yang said you reached a Combat Power of 15.2 and awakened three lines of Qi Sensitivity, is that true?"

Teng Qingshan controlled his breathing.

"I didn’t expect to improve this fast either. Yesterday you encouraged me to practice diligently and enter the elite class as soon as possible, and I didn’t expect that just a day later, I’m here."

Zhang Lingfeng laughed.

"Indeed surprising."

Teng Qingshan’s smile was stiff.

"Zhang Lingfeng, Ms. Yang has already informed me about you. You must remember that starting today, you are an elite class student. Your behavior, especially your cultivation attitude, must conform to the elite class standards. I won’t indulge you like Ms. Yang, understood?"

After seeing Yang Liru off, Hong Lixin warned.

He didn’t realize how significant his words were as many elite class students looked at Zhang Lingfeng with suspicion. It turns out that Zhang Lingfeng progressed so quickly without serious cultivation. If he practiced seriously, wouldn’t he quickly surpass all of them?

"Teng Qingshan, you were the first to enter the elite class for cultivation this year. I need you to supervise Zhang Lingfeng. If he slackens even slightly in his practice, you must report to me immediately and continue to correct his mistakes."

Hong Lixin instructed Teng Qingshan.

"Yes."

"Zhang Lingfeng, from now on we will cultivate together."

Teng Qingshan said eagerly.

"Alright!"

Zhang Lingfeng sighed.

If he follows Hong Lixin’s method of cultivation, he will eventually be kicked out of the elite class, let alone gain a recommendation to Divine Martial University or become an Elemental Martial Artist.

"This is the elite class student’s cultivation plan, Zhang Lingfeng, take a good look at it."

Then Hong Lixin handed Zhang Lingfeng a cultivation plan.

As Zhang Lingfeng read the plan, it outlined reporting to school every day at 5:30 AM to practice Breathing Technique with everyone for two hours before going to the cafeteria to receive cultivation resource subsidies.

Then return to train skills, participate in mutual sparring assessments.

No lunch break.

No holidays.

There are also evening lessons every day for cultivation.

Aside from the few hours left to rest, all the remaining time is spent on cultivation and learning.

Such an intense regimen, few could endure, but elite class students receive expensive cultivation resource subsidies, a cup of nutrient water each meal, and a few Qi Replenishing Pills daily, keeping their energy high and preventing damage from excessive practice.

In fact, the high-intensity regimen is so they can absorb the daily energy from the cultivation resource subsidies, continually evolving their vitality and constitution.

Laying a solid foundation to become Elemental Martial Artists.

Zhang Lingfeng felt his head spinning after reading it.

Arriving at school at 5:30 AM to practice Breathing Technique is impossible for him, let alone having no holidays, and attending evening lessons daily, etc.

If he strictly follows this cultivation plan, Zhang Lingfeng feels that even if Zhang Qingqing becomes a grown woman, he would never become an Elemental Martial Artist.

Let alone buy nutrient liquid for her.

"Time is precious, let’s start cultivating."

Hong Lixin couldn’t wait to let Zhang Lingfeng feel the elite class’s cultivation atmosphere and instill a disciplined cultivation attitude.

The Breathing Technique is crucial for enhancing vitality, strengthening the constitution, and absorbing energy from food and nutrient water, holding a significant place in Hong Lixin’s cultivation plan.

Almost half the time each day is spent on it.

To supervise Zhang Lingfeng’s cultivation, Hong Lixin arranged his seat at the very front, also assigning Teng Qingshan to oversee his training.

"Zhang Lingfeng, although both elite and ordinary classes practice the Tidal Breathing Method, the rhythm differs greatly between the two. The ordinary class focuses on smooth and long breaths, while the elite class emphasizes speed through sustained intense breathing pulls, continually enhancing vitality and constitution. Initially practicing with this rhythm, you will experience brain hypoxia, wanting to faint. Remember, under no circumstances can you faint. If you can endure, mastering the Tidal Breathing Method in the future will yield twice the results with half the effort. Do you understand?"

Hong Lixin reminded.

"What, fainting...? I understand, Mr. Hong, rest assured!"

Zhang Lingfeng was startled, then excitedly replied.

"Now, follow my rhythm and breathe in and out."

Hong Lixin nodded satisfied, then led everyone in breathing and exhaling.

Zhang Lingfeng followed his rhythm, breathing in and out. After a while, his eyes blurred, and his body swayed.

Hong Lixin wasn’t lying. The intense breathing and exhaling caused brain hypoxia, making him drowsy.

Even possessing all-weather Breathing and Exhaling Ability, that drowsiness still crept in.

"Hoo!"

Hong Lixin immediately noticed Zhang Lingfeng’s condition, couldn’t help letting out a long breath, trying to remind him to hold on.

"Bang!"

However, as soon as that breath was released, Zhang Lingfeng’s vision darkened, and he collapsed to the ground.

Teng Qingshan nearly choked, his face flushed watching Zhang Lingfeng unconscious, wondering if his Combat Power was gained through cheating.
