(Story) King Of Gods Episode 13 - 16

Splitting the money

“Look! That person seems to be one of the Zhao family disciples!”

The other Xin disciples looked at Zhao Feng who was following the tiger. Xin Fei looked at Zhao Feng’s back and murmured, “What a high level of footwork! His speed is not even slower than mine when I go full out! His archery skills are not bad either……”
“Hmph! He’s just a guy who fires cold arrows! He better not let us catch up, or else……”

A youth, who was at the third rank, coldly said. This youth’s strength was placed after Xin Fei’s.

His words were immediately agreed upon by the others, “You are right! That kid let us be the bait and fired his own arrows while hiding!”

“Xin Gang, that person saved our lives.”
Xin Fei shook his head.

Just at this moment, a few miles out, the last roar of the “Green Headed Tigers” sounded…..

The expressions of the Xin family disciples changed. Without even thinking about it, they knew that the tiger must have died.
“Quick!”

The youth named Xin Gang charged towards the direction of the sound.

At the same time, three or four miles out in the east direction.

Hu!

Zhao Feng leaned against a tree and breathed heavily. Downwards, the five metre long tiger had a few arrows stuck in its forehead. Not long ago, the tiger was a ferocious being. Now however, it had no life left…..

Zhao Feng on instinct tried to take out another arrow but then realised that there were none left.

Teng!
Zhao Feng floated towards the corpse and went into deep thought.


Shua!

His left eye locked in on the Xin disciples who were two miles out. Zhao Feng stood still and did not move to touch the corpse. It wasn’t that he did not want to, it was just a bit hard for him to do so.

The tiger’s body weighed around three tons and was hard to move. Also, the tiger king’s skin was tough to cut.
Soon the five Xin disciples arrived.
“Kid! Move quickly! This is ours!”
Xin Gang, who was at the front, arrogantly said.

He was wary of Zhao Feng’s strength at first, but when he saw that Zhao Feng was only a second ranker, he obviously didn’t put Zhao Feng in his eyes anymore.
Although they had lost one person, and Xin Fei was exhausted, they still had two people of the second rank and two more of the third.
Zhao Feng stood his ground and mockingly looked at Xin Gang.

He was only wary of Xin Fei.
“Xin Gang! He saved our lives! We can discuss how to split the tiger.”
Xin Fei said slowly as he arrived.
Zhao Feng looked at him praisingly, “Just as I thought. The tigers corpse is this big, and I do not have to tools to cut it, nor the strength to carry it away.”

Xin Fei had put a lot of power into killing this tiger. They had also lost one person. Although Xin Gang was somewhat unwilling, he still agreed. Soon they started discussing how to split the tiger.

“Two-eight. The Xin family will take eight.”
Xin Gang said with an iron tone.
“Hmph! Twenty percent is already too much for this kid!”

The rest of the Xin family all had faces full of disdain.

“Two-eight? Hahaha……”
Zhao Feng laughed immediately.
“Kid! What are you laughing about? I want to hear how much you want to take!”
“Two-eight. I get eight….. You get two!”
Zhao Feng said. At first he wanted to split it five-five, but he did not think that the Xin family would have such an attitude.
“Don’t be arrogant! I’ll see how strong you are!”
Xin Gang laughed and pulled out his sword.
“Stop!”

Xin Fei tried to stop him but it was too late.
“Illusion Wind After-Image!”
Xin Fei was like a wind that whirled towards Zhao Feng.

“It is the high rank martial art Broken Wind Sword!”

“That kid is dead now. Xin Gang had already trained the first six moves of Broken Wind Sword to the low level.”

The Xin disciples had sympathetic expressions.
“Small tricks!”

Zhao Feng didn’t retreat but instead moved forward.

What speed!

Everyone, including Xin Fei, only saw Zhao Feng turn into a blur.

Not good!

Xin Gang’s Illusion Wind After-Image missed and Zhao Feng was closing in on him at an insane speed.
“Angry Wind After-Image!”
Xin Gang shouted as he used another attack.
“Angry Dragon Breaking the Sky!”
Zhao Feng put all of his strength into his fists. The moment he merged Angry Dragon Fists and Air Pushing Breathing Technique together, his power increased by more than double.

“What strength!”
Xin Gang felt as if a volcano was erupting. Zhao Feng’s strength almost surpassed the strength of third rankers.
Peh!

A loud explosion sounded as Xin Gang and Zhao Feng clashed.
Wah!
Xin Gang spit blood as he was hit by the first punch.

The second punch.
Bang!

His silver sword was knocked flying.
The third punch.
Boom———

His whole body flew out and left an imprint of him on a tree.

What power!
So strong!

The other Xin disciples stood there dazed. They never thought that someone who had the power of the peak of the third rank would lose in one move to a second rank Zhao sect disciple.
“Strong.”

Xin Fei, who wasn’t far away, asked, “May I know your name?”
“Zhao Feng.”

Zhao Feng casually took back his fists.
“Kid! You were just lucky this time!”
Xin Gang crawled up from the ground, “I’ve been fighting the tiger and am exhausted. Next time you won’t have such luck.”
“Luck?”

Zhao Feng gave off a faint smile. Although Xin Gang was injured, Zhao Feng believed that he could still beat him at his peak. The only one he was wary of was Xin Fei.
Xin Fei’s strength had almost reached the fourth rank. When he used all of his strength it could even damage the Green Headed Tiger King, not to mention third rankers.
“Xin Gang! You are not his opponent! Do you not think that you have already lost enough face?”

Xin Fei slowly turned towards Zhao Feng. Suddenly, his body gave off a frightening fighting will. Zhao Feng’s heart jumped, “Did Xin Fei already recover?”
Of course, if Xin Fei did not have sixty-percent of his strength, then Zhao Feng wasn’t afraid of him. After being in such a state, it was obvious that Xin Fei had yet to fully recovered.

“Your fist skill has almost reached the peak level and your footwork is incredible. Next time I would like to spar with you.”
Xin Fei faced Zhao Feng in the eye full of praise.

“Sure, we will spar next time.”
Although Zhao Feng was wary of him, it did not mean that he was scared. Xin Fei’s strength was at least on par with Zhao Yijian, who was ranked third amongst the outer disciples.


If Zhao Feng could beat Zhao Yijian, then he would have the ability to fight Xin Fei.
Soon they finished discussing how to split their rewards.

“Six-four. Me six, you guys four.”
Zhao Feng said.
“Ok.”

Xin Fei was the one that answered as the other Xin disciples did not have the courage to respond. They were wary of Zhao Feng’s strength.

Zhao Feng nodded to himself, giving 40% away was like shooting two birds with one arrow. Firstly, he did not have any tool to cut or move the corpse, so he just let the others do the work. Secondly, he did not want to make that many enemies before he had enough strength.

Imagine if he took it all of it for himself. Would that not cause the eyes of the others to go red?

The tiger was dissected one hour later.
Zhao Feng took the most expensive parts and left all of the meat to the Xin disciples. After confirming that he took sixty percent he casually left.

“Hmmm….. The Zhao sect seems to have a new genius. Even Zhao Linlong wasn’t as strong as him at the same level of cultivation.” Xin Fei said as his eyes followed Zhao Feng.

“Zhao Linlong!”
Xin Gang had an expression of awe, “He is one of the four genius’ of Sun Feather City! He already reached the fourth rank two years ago and became a true martial artist! How can this kid be compared to him?”

The four great genius’ were the top youths of Sun Feather City. Any one of them were true martial artists and they were stronger than other martial artists by far.

“Do not even mention Zhao Linlong, even brother Fei could kill that kid in one blow”

EPISODE 14

Third Rank of the Martial Path

Half a day later, Zhao Feng carried three massive bags on him as he entered Sun Feather City.

At a shop in Sun Feather City that sold beast skins.

“Black-spotted Wild Pig, teeth, paws….. Worth a total of three hundred and fifty nine silver.”

“Gold-spotted Snake…… Worth four hundred and twenty silver.”

“Five Poison Centipede….. Worth two hundred and ten silver.”

The shopkeeper expressionlessly said as he calculated the prices.

“Metal Pecker Eagle…. Yi!”
Speaking up to here, the face of the shopkeeper changed. The Metal Pecker Eagle was a beast that had almost entered the ranks of deadly beasts. It defense was strong and it was hard to catch. Even some cultivators of the fourth rank could not catch them.

Due to this, the price of Metal Pecker Eagles exceeded that of other beasts of the same rank.

“Metal Pecker Eagle….. Three of them….. Worth one thousand one hundred silver.” The shopkeeper said after pausing for a second.

One thousand one hundred silver? Zhao Feng was a little shocked as the eagle was worth more than he thought. Soon, apart from Zhao Feng’s Green Headed Tiger King, the rest was totaled up.

“A total of five thousand eight hundred and fifty silver!” The shopkeeper said.
Five thousand eight hundred and fifty silver! Zhao Feng’s heart sped up. His monthly allowance was only twenty silver! He never had a time when he carried more than one hundred silver on him.

Even then, the most expensive materials, that of the Green Headed Tiger King, had yet to be added in.




“How about this, I will give you a total of five thousand nine hundred silver.” The shopkeeper had a cunning face.
“Sure.” Zhao Feng couldn’t be bothered to talk so he agreed.
Soon Zhao Feng received his money, all in silver notes.

“Oh yea, do you guys take parts from deadly beasts?” Zhao Feng didn’t leave immediately after exchanging.
“Could it be that you have deadly beast parts?” The shopkeeper’s eyes floated towards the last bag in Zhao Feng’s hands.
“Yep.” Zhao Feng slowly opened his bag, showing the parts of the Green Headed Tiger King.

Immediately a powerful aura came from the bag.

“Green Headed Tiger King!” The shopkeeper exclaimed as he looked disbelievingly at Zhao Feng.

He couldn’t imagine how a measly second ranker was able to kill a deadly beast. It was known that a deadly beast could fight against true martial artists. There were even rumours of deadly beasts destroying whole villages.
“We had a total of seven people. It took us a while to kill it and even then we lost someone.”

Zhao Feng’s words seemed to comfort the shocked shopkeeper.

Facing the materials, the shopkeeper’s eyesight looked at the “Zhao” symbol on Zhao Feng’s clothes and finally gave a price, “Sixteen thousand silver!”
As he gave the price, the workers in the shop took a cold breath. It was their first time hearing such a high price.
The shopkeeper did not dare to trick Zhao Feng as he came from the Zhao sect.
The Zhao, Xin, and Qiu families were the three biggest powers in Sun Feather City. No shop could open up without their permission.
“Deal!” Zhao Feng smiled. He seemed calm but was laughing inside.

Soon Zhao Feng took his twenty thousand silver and left the shop.
“I can now go buy some resources to help me break through to the third rank.” Zhao Feng headed towards the weapons shop that he went to a few days ago.
“Kid, you’re here again?” A few days ago Zhao Feng was low on money and technically half borrowed and half paid for the heavy metal bow.
Pah!

Zhao Feng put his hand on the table: “Here’s one hundred silver. Thank you for your help that day.”

One hundred silver? The shopkeeper was surprised as he never thought that Zhao Feng would be so honest. Zhao Feng had said he would pay back double, but this was over ten times the amount!

The shopkeeper smiled as he took the silver. Although he was the shopkeeper, he did not own the shop. One hundred silver was half his year’s income.

After paying back the money Zhao Feng didn’t leave but looked around more.

“My heavy metal bow’s strength is too low.” Zhao Feng wanted a new bow. He used his left eye to inspect the weapons on the wall. Soon his eyes stopped on a silver longbow.

The silver long bow gave off a cold aura while also giving off a deep calm feeling.
“How much is it for this bow?” Zhao Feng asked.

“You have good eyes! This bow is called “Mysterious Silver Bow” and is one of the shops most powerful weapons. Only true martial artists that are proficient in archery can use it to its fullest potential…… Its price is one thousand and eighty silver.” He did not think that Zhao Feng could afford it but still acted politely.

“One thousand and eighty silver? That’s not very expensive. I will buy it.” Zhao Feng said.
The Mysterious Silver bow was made out of great materials and was better than his heavy metal bow by at least a few times. It also needed martial artists of the fourth rank or higher to use it to its fullest potential.
“Are you sure you want it……..? Not borrow it?”
Pah!

Zhao Feng stacked up a heap of silver and pushed it towards the shopkeeper, “Quick, I do not have much time.”
What?

The shopkeeper never thought that Zhao Feng was so “rich”…. A few days ago he had only bought a bow worth fifteen silver…..
“Sure, sure!” The shopkeeper nodded as he took down the bow down and put it in a beautifully carved box. Zhao Feng also bought one hundred arrows that were worth three silver each.

After exiting the weapons shop, Zhao Feng went to the City’s biggest medicine shop.
“The medicine pavilion is this City’s largest medicine shop. The owner is very mysterious and it has chain stores in the thirteen countries around here. Even the three big families of Sun Feather City are afraid of its strength.”

As soon as he came to the store he heard a familiar guy’s voice.
Yi!
Zhao Feng found a male and female not far away. The one speaking was a youth clothed in purple who gave off a frightening aura.
“It’s them…….” Zhao Feng sighed.
The male and female duo was Zhao Yijian and Zhao Xue.
“Brother Feng.”

Zhao Xue said surprisingly as she saw Zhao Feng .

Zhao Feng nodded his head as a response and then walked into the Medicine Pavilion.
“Hmph, just him? He has the right to enter the medicine pavilion? Any item from the medicine pavilion is worth a few years of his income.” Zhao Yijian said disdainfully as he looked at Zhao Feng.

Although Zhao Xue did not speak, she knew that with Zhao Feng’s background it would be very hard to take out a few hundred silver.
Compared to Zhao Yijian, whose father and grandfather were both cultivators higher than the fourth rank held middle-high positions in the sect, their wealths were not comparable.
Ignoring the two, Zhao Feng walked into the Medicine Pavilion and started to search for resources that would help his cultivation increase.

“Third rank of the Martial Path……… is when the body becomes stronger. In this direction, the blood plant use is incredibly good. It can consolidate one’s foundation and even help some cultivators understand Inner strength…..”

Zhao Feng thought about it and then confirmed his needs.

Out of all the plants, the blood plant was of the biggest use for martial learners.
Blood plants were split into many categories. The ones that were older had better use, but were also more expensive.
“One hundred year old blood plant, five hundred silver. Two hundred year old blood plant, one thousand two hundred silver. Three hundred year old blood plant…. Three thousand silver….. Five hundred year old blood plant…… ten thousand silver.”
Zhao Feng’s eyes scanned through the price list.

Obviously, the older it was the better it was. Of course, the limits of martial learners were blood plants that were five hundred years old.
“Brother Yijian, if I had a two hundred year old blood plant, I might be able to reach the peak of the second rank in half a year.” Zhao Xue’s voice came wandering through.
“That is not possible. At most I can only buy you a one hundred year old one. I have been trying to learn Inner Strength and need expensive materials to help me.” Zhao Yijian said. Although he was rich, he could not spend his money recklessly.
“A one hundred year old one is ok as well.” Zhao Xue smiled faintly.
Just at this moment, a voice expressionlessly said, “Shopkeeper, give me two two-hundred year old blood plants and a three hundred year old one.”
This voice gained the attention of many people.
It’s him!

Zhao Xue saw Zhao Feng who was not far away and her heart leapt.
“A three hundred year old blood plant? He is probably boasting.” Zhao Yijian gave a cold laugh. He would not believe that a normal branch disciple could afford a three hundred year old blood plant.

“Two two-hundred year old blood plant and a three-hundred year old blood plant. A total of five thousand four hundred silver.” The shopkeeper gave his price.

Soon, in front of their eyes, Zhao Feng took out his silver and successfully exchanged it with the shopkeeper.

This scene made Zhao Yijian’s smile freeze.
“How…. how is this possible?” Zhao Xue had an disbelieving, dazed look.

“Shopkeeper, can I also get three bottles of high level healing pills as well as three bottles of high level blood recovery pills?”

Zhao Feng bought some other medicine which were all high level and spent another thousand silver.

After the exchange, Zhao Feng waved at Zhao Xue and left in a cool manner. When replying, Zhao Xue had a forced smile and did not look Zhao Feng in the eye….

After leaving the Medicine Pavilion, Zhao Feng didn’t return to the Zhao sect. Instead he went to an inn.

He first calculated the silver he had left, it was a total of twelve thousand silver.
“I will leave this silver for later use.” Zhao Feng understood that a cultivators path needed a huge amount of resources.

That night, he closed his eyes and slowly used the Air Pushing Breathing Technique.

Inside of his left eye, the faint green glow had increased from two feet to two feet-five.
Zhao Feng confirmed that he had reached the peak of the second rank and just needed half a step more to reach the third rank.
“I wonder how strong this medicine will be.”

Zhao Feng was full of expectations as he ate a blood plant that was two hundred years old.
Soon, Zhao Feng felt an enormous amount of strength appear in his body that was chaotic.
“What a strong herb!”

Zhao Feng fully used the Air Pushing Breathing Technique and absorbed the medicine.
Maybe it was because Zhao Feng had never used such precious herbs before that he thought that it was extremely strong.
In the morning of the second day.
“Could this be….” Zhao Feng felt himself burst with energy. All of his muscles and bones were full of power.
Peh!

He casually waved his fist and hit out with a force of seven hundred kilograms! Breaking through to the third rank was easier than Zhao Feng thought……

EPISODE 15

Strength of a Quasi Martial Artist

“The effect of the blood plant is so good.” Zhao Feng felt incredible. He first thought that, with the help of the two hundred year blood plant, it would still take him at least two days to break through.

Zhao Feng thought that if everyone had the same effect, then cultivators at the fourth rank or higher would be worth nothing.
Soon he found the reasons:
Firstly, he had never taken any herbs before therefore he could absorb the herb to a high degree. Secondly, the Air Pushing Breathing Technique had reached the third level, which made Zhao Feng’s strength reach the third rank even while he was at the second rank. Thirdly, Zhao Feng felt that his body was slowly changing after it merging with the left eye.

Zhao Feng calmed down soon as he realised that many others in the Zhao sect had already reached the third rank at his age. He could only be considered talented, not a genius.
Taking Zhao Yufei for example, she had reached the peak of the third rank two months ago and had already almost learned Inner Strength, which meant that she had the strength of a quasi martial artist.
“I am probably at the same level as Xin Fei and Zhao Yijian. However, I do not have confidence in winning against them.”
After all, Xin Fei and Zhao Yijian had learnt high rank martial arts skills, and had at least trained them to the low level.
For the next two days, Zhao Feng consolidated his cultivation.

While he was training in the Air Pushing Breathing Technique he realised that there was a low humming sound. Zhao Feng emboldened his left eye and realised that there was a faint green and red glow forming between his blood and skin.



“Air Pushing Breathing Technique is nearing the peak of the third level. My strength is not any weaker than Zhao Yufei or Xin Fei who have quasi martial artist strength.”
Once Air Pushing Breathing Technique reached the peak of the third level he would have the chance at understanding Inner Strength.

Most had to be half-step martial artists to reach this step. Even most peak third rankers could not do this.

After he consolidated his foundation Zhao Feng left the inn and headed towards the Zhao sect. As for the other two blood plants, he did not plan to use them any time soon.
As soon as Zhao Feng left the inn, a beggar wearing torn clothes turned and ran not far away from him.
“Master Xin, he has come out!” The beggar arrived at a restaurant and reported to a youth clad in silver.
“Ok, here’s your promised silver.” The youth had a cold smile.
As Zhao Feng turned into an alleyway, he heard footsteps thundering from behind.
Teng sou sou ———-
Two or three shadows flipped over the wall and pursued him from behind.
“Who’s there!?”
Zhao Feng immediately turned around.
“Kid! Leave ten thousand silver and we’ll let you go.” Three disciples of the Xin family said as they surrounded Zhao Feng. The one that talked was the youth in silver.
Xin Gang!

Zhao Feng immediately recognised the youth.
The three disciples in front of him had all reached the third rank and Xin Gang had reached the peak of the third rank.
“Ten thousand silver? Just you three?” Zhao Feng said indifferently as he stood straight.

He had spent near ten thousand silver in Sun Feather City and still had ten thousand left. These people obviously planned to take it all for themselves.
“Kid! I’m warning you, do not be too arrogant! I was injured the last time, that’s why you won. Today we’re going to have payback for the “losses” we had back in Sky Cloud Forest.”

“Hmph…… that day you took sixty percent of the tiger’s worth while one person from our sect died.” One of the Xin disciples had greed and unwillingness in his eyes.
“Stop speaking such nonsense! We’ll take him down quickly in case some accidents happen.” The youth on the left said as he kicked towards Zhao Feng. Immediately after the two others followed suit.

“Hahaha, a bunch of trash.” Zhao Feng laughed as he jumped seven metres off the ground and landed on top of the wall of a mansion.

He had easily dodged the three frenzied attacks.

“Don’t let him run away!” Xin Gang roared and was the first to leap towards Zhao Feng.

“Run?” Zhao Feng looked mockingly at Xin Gang as he immediately used the Air Pushing Breathing Technique and Lightly Floating Ferry, leaving behind an afterimage in the air.
Not good!

Xin Gang felt an unbearable pressure coming from his side.
Pah—-

Xin Gang, who was in mid-air, barely managed to block one punch.
Wah!

Although he blocked it, the forced still made him smash into a stone wall which made him cough out blood.

“This kid’s strength has probably reached the quasi fourth rank. I cannot even take one of his hits.” Xin Gang felt his eyes go black and immediately warned his peers: “Xin Yu, Xin Chen watch out!” However, before he finished warning them there was a scream coming from his left.

“Ahhhhhh……….” Another youth had his bones broken.

“Run!” The last Xin disciples was scared out of his wits and tried to run. However, before he could escape, a whistling sound came from behind.
Peh!

He felt his eyes turn black before he could even see the attack…..

In terms of speed, Zhao Feng had learnt a high rank martial art skill and when used, could be compared to martial artists of the fourth rank.

“I will let you off the hook this time, but if you anger me again…..” Zhao Feng looked coldly at Xin Gang and then, like a bird, floated away.

“What incredible strength and speed…….” The youth next to Xin Gang said dazed.
“This Zhao Feng has just reached the third rank and already has the strength of a ‘quasi martial artist’.” Zhao Feng’s strength right now could be compared with Xin Fei’s.

After finishing off Xin Gang and company, Zhao Feng returned to the Zhao sect.
A few disciples that were familiar with Zhao Feng were surprised by his cultivation.
“When did Zhao Feng reach the third rank of the Martial Path?” They all knew that Zhao Feng’s strength was only at the first rank twenty days ago!

“I heard that Zhao Feng and some Xin family disciples killed a “Green Headed Tiger King” yesterday and he then stole over half of the spoils….” One well-informed Zhao disciple said.

“One deadly beast is worth around twenty to thirty thousand silver. This kid’s definitely bought some super expensive herb that increased his cultivation.”

“What is so amazing about using outer help to increase one’s cultivation? Those people usually have lower strength.”

These disciples were all either envious or disdainful.

Zhao Feng never thought that the information would reach the sect so fast. Not bothering with these people, Zhao Feng walked straight ahead. Soon he arrived at home.

He first saw his mother Zhao Shi sewing clothes.

“Father, mother, here is one thousand silver.” Zhao Feng walked inside the room and took out a stack of silver.

“One thousand silver?” Zhao Shi stared as she picked up the notes.

“How did you get so much money?” Zhao Tianyang said in surprise. When he saw that his son’s cultivation had reached the third rank, a strange glimmer passed through his eyes.

“It happened like this…..” Zhao Feng then told them a simplistic story of what had happened in Sky Cloud Forest. After listening to the story, Zhao Tianyang and Zhao Shi had a tinge of questioning apart from their excitement. After all, Zhao Feng did not use to have such a superb performance. However, being parents, they obviously wanted their children to be successful.

Zhao Feng sat crossed legged in his room and surveyed the worn out room, “There is still one more month until the family sparring contest. If I can become an inner disciple…. My parents’ status and treatment should become a bit higher…..”

Closing his eyes, Zhao Feng’s consciousness entered the pitch black dimension inside his left eye. The faint green ring had extended to three feet.

When Zhao Feng was at the first rank, the green ring’s length was one feet, and it was two feet when his cultivation reached the second rank. Now, it was three feet as he reached the third rank.

As the green ring extended, Zhao Feng found that the power of his left eye increased. He could see every item in detail in a range of ten miles. His mind’s energy and reaction speed had also significantly increased.

Thinking up to here, Zhao Feng started to “decipher” Lightly Floating Ferry once more.

Soon there was less and less of Lightly Floating Ferry left undeciphered.

One-third left….. One-quarter left….. One-fifth left……

Night. Just as Zhao Feng was exhausted, the last bit of Lightly Floating Ferry was deciphered. At this moment Zhao Feng held his breath as he viewed its contents.
“This footwork skill can even…….”

Suddenly, his expression was replaced by ecstasy!

EPISODE 16

Air Crossing Breathing Technique
“……. Lightly Floating Ferry, Late page: Only with the Air Crossing Breathing Technique can one wield it to its fullest potential. It will be unsurpassable by all those under the seventh rank and is a peak speed skill for all those under the ninth rank. Below is the contents of the Air Crossing Breathing Technique and the minimum requirement are being at the peak of the third rank of the Martial Path as well as Inner Strength.

As the last tenth of the skill was deciphered, Zhao Feng released his excitement. He never thought that a skill such as Lightly Floating Ferry would have a complementary skill. This was technically buffing Lightly Floating Ferry to an ever higher level.

Zhao Feng could now confirm that Lightly Floating Ferry was at least a peak rank martial art skill. Most people knew that martial arts were split into Core, Low, Middle, High and Peak. However this did not mean that peak ranked martial arts skills were at the top. There were rumours of Holy Martial Skills, skills that surpassed peak ranked martial arts skills.

Likewise, there was the Holy Martial Path above the nine ranks of Martial Path.

Zhao Feng had heard however that, to enter the Holy Martial Path, one needed to learn a Holy Martial Skill.

Obviously, with Zhao Feng’s status, he couldn’t even think about “Holy” skills.
Even the true martial artists of Sun Feather City could not touch the level of the Holy Martial Path.

Night.

Zhao Feng had finally deciphered all of its contents. Now, the entire Lightly Floating Ferry was displayed.




“If I can gain an understanding of Inner strength right now, any opponent under the fourth rank will not be a match for me.”
Zhao Feng immediately started to learn the contents of Lightly Floating Ferry. Once Lightly Floating Ferry entered the beginning stages Zhao Feng could immediately start using Inner Strength.

Half an hour later Zhao Feng had only just understood some parts of Lightly Floating Ferry.

However, to try and understand Inner Strength through Lightly Floating Ferry alone was still a bit difficult.

Sun Feather City had thousands of cultivators who had reached the peak of the third rank, but many of them would never understand Inner Strength and reach the fourth rank.
Even some of the sect’s talented youths, such as Zhao Yijian and Zhao Yufei had been stuck for a while and had yet to succeed.
Zhao Feng ended that night with failure.
“Don’t rush! I have just stepped into the realm of the third rank and if I can train the Air Pushing Breathing Technique to the peak of the third level, I believe that my chances of success will increase.”

The second day, Zhao Feng once again started to train in the Air Pushing Breathing Technique as well as Angry Dragon Fists. On the third day the Air Pushing Breathing Technique was slowly moving towards the peak of the third level. Zhao Feng felt that his body strength had reached a limit now, every time he operated it he felt as if it had reached its peak.

He once again tried to condense Inner Strength, but it again resulted in failure. Every time he failed, his strength would fall into a period of exhaustion.

Although Zhao Feng understood the Air Crossing Breathing Technique, to actually successfully form Inner Strength was an entirely different matter.

However, Zhao Feng did not give up, and every time he tried there would be subtle improvements.

On the same day, Zhao Feng received a notice.
“Tomorrow noon there will be a very powerful martial artist giving a lecture on the martial arts field.”

Every outer disciple had heard this news.
“An open lecture on the martial arts field?”
Maybe it was because the family sparring contest was only one month away, but the outer disciples all started to put in more effort as well.

Zhao Feng was very expectant of this lecture. He had only been at the Zhao sect for half a year and this was the first time he had this kind of chance.

The morning of the fourth day.
Although it wasn’t noon yet, there were already a lot of Zhao sect disciples here. Zhao Feng even saw many strong outer disciples that weren’t usually seen.

“Look…. Those are two of the top three outer disciples” Zhao Yufei and Zhao Yijian! Even Zhao Guang who is ranked fifth is here!”
The main focus of these people were those at the peak amongst the outer disciples.

At the Zhao sect there were over one thousand youths from the age of thirteen to eighteen. Over half of them had cultivations of the second rank. Obviously, when Zhao Feng came, he was indeed the bottom…….

On the field, those that that held the most attention were those that ranked in the top ten and top twenty.

The most focused on person was Zhao Yufei, who was fourteen or fifteen years of age. Her beauty stood out amongst the crowd.

She wasn’t just pretty, she also had great talent and was ranked third, equal with Zhao Yijian.

“Look! That is Zhao Yue who is ranked first!”

There was a buzz as Zhao Yue appeared.

Zhao Feng did not even need to find him as the crowd split apart by itself. Through the pathway came a youth, sixteen or seventeen years of age. He wore azure coloured clothes and had a simplistic face.

“He is Zhao Yue?” It was Zhao Feng’s first time seeing Zhao Yue, he had only heard rumours about him before.

Zhao Yue’s was older than most disciples, being seventeen years of age. This was because once someone became eighteen years old, they were considered adults and could no longer be counted as the younger generation.

Zhao Yue often cultivated effortlessly inside his own room, so it wasn’t common for him to be seen by others.

At this moment, Zhao Feng’s eyes locked onto Zhao Yue and felt the tremendous pressure coming from him. Although their ranks were the same, Zhao Feng could feel the pressure that being emitted byhim.

Zhao Feng also felt the immense strength hiding in Zhao Yue’s muscles. Because Zhao Yue was older, this meant that he had cultivated longer and had the best foundation. In terms of strength, he was definitely ranked first!

No wonder he’s worthy of the title of being the strongest outer disciples!

Zhao Feng felt like he couldn’t find any flaws on him. As Zhao Yue appeared, Zhao Yijian who was ranked third, and Zhao Guang who was ranked fifth, showed their fighting intent.

There wasn’t much difference in strength between the top five outer disciples.

There was still a bit of time before the lecture started.

Soon, there was another shout.
“Zhao Gan’s here!”
“Zhao Gan? The person ranked amongst the top five?” The gazes of many disciples turned towards a certain direction.

The youth that came was a short haired youth who’s body was as slim as a leopard.

Zhao Gan?
Zhao Feng felt that the name was familiar. Soon he remembered that this person was Zhao Kun’s brother. And sure enough, behind Zhao Gan came a familiar figure, Zhao Kun!

Zhao Kun had also spotted Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng only saw him walk to his brother and say something.
En?

Zhao Gan spun around and his cold eyes locked onto Zhao Feng.

“You’re that Zhao Feng?” Zhao Gan said expressionlessly as he walked over.
Hua!

There was a shock that went through the crowd.

“What is going on? Why would Zhao Gan trouble someone who is so unknown?”
“Unknown?” Someone shook his head and mocked, “Zhao Feng is not some unknown brat. A few days ago he killed a Green Headed Tiger king by accident!”

“Oh, it’s him!”
“I heard that he beat up Zhao Gan’s little brother. I bet you Zhao Gan is coming for revenge.”

After a short discussion the crowd soon calmed down. Most of the disciples had playful looks on their faces as Zhao Gan was ranked fifth in the outer disciples.

At this moment, even Zhao Yue, who was ranked first, Zhao Yijian and Zhao Yufei, who were equally ranked third, looked over.
Zhao Yijian had a gloating expression on his face. He knew Zhao Gan’s strength quite well. Zhao Xue, who was next to Zhao Yijian, sighed, but after remembering how Zhao Feng had acted in the Medicine Pavilion, it was replaced by coldness.

On the other side, Zhao Yufei had an interested look. Zhao Feng’s performance at the archery field had made her shocked. At this time, Zhao Feng was one of the main focuses on the field.

“Kid, today you are going to get humiliated in front of the crowd.” Zhao Kun lips curled into a smile. Zhao Gan walked step by step, and every step he took caused the atmosphere to tense up.

“Yes, I am Zhao Feng.” Zhao Feng gave a off faint smile as he sized up Zhao Gan.
