Primordial Emperor

"Alright, today's training ends here. Go back and rest well. We have classes tomorrow morning, and after class, remember to continue training here."

Zi Ling clapped her hands after knocking everyone down, speaking leisurely.

"Ah, we have to come again tomorrow? My bones are about to fall apart."

Yang Ming felt a chill down his spine upon hearing Zi Ling's words and spoke weakly.

He thought returning to lie down for a good rest would be a relief, but upon hearing about the continuation tomorrow, Yang Ming's mood instantly soured.

"What's the matter? You seem to have a lot of opinions about my decision, Junior Brother Yang Ming."

Zi Ling looked at Yang Ming, her eyes slightly narrowed, showing an expression as if she were about to eat him alive, causing Yang Ming's hairs to stand on end, feeling goosebumps all over.

"I don't dare, I have no opinion at all. I'm absolutely willing, seeing how much effort Senior Sister puts into our training."

Yang Ming forced a smile onto his face as he replied to Zi Ling.

"Not bad, not bad. It seems Junior Brother Yang Ming has a high level of ideological consciousness. As a reward, during tomorrow's training, Senior Sister will intensify the effort just for you."

Zi Ling looked at Yang Ming and nodded with satisfaction as she spoke.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ming immediately felt disheartened, secretly regretting his previous tough words.

This was indeed perfect; tomorrow he was bound to get a good beating. He knew well what Zi Ling meant by her "attention."

Cheng Liang approached Yang Ming and sympathetically patted his shoulder.

"Junior Brother Yang, you're really daring, directly challenging Senior Sister's decision."

"Don't worry, if tomorrow you can't walk after being beaten, we'll carry you back to the dormitory. If you're beaten to death, we'll even arrange your burial."

Cheng Liang spoke solemnly to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming's mood worsened upon hearing Cheng Liang's words.

What Cheng Liang said seemed to predict his fate tomorrow.

But there was nothing he could do to change it; he'd better go back and recover from his injuries to prepare for the beating tomorrow.

Looking at Yang Ming's face full of resignation, Lin Chen couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

Although being pummeled by Zi Ling was painful, it was nothing to Lin Chen, as compared to the pressure of an unfamiliar world, this pain was trivial.

Moreover, this way of breaking and restructuring the physique is undeniably an excellent method to enhance physical strength.

A martial artist's spiritual power strength is actually connected to the physique, as only a stronger physique can allow the meridians and spirit sea to bear more spiritual power.

Even though none of them were focused on body cultivation, this method could still enhance physical strength, albeit not at Lin Chen's pace.

After the training, Lin Chen returned to his dwelling, immediately summoned the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, and entered it.

Today's training not only increased Lin Chen's physical strength but also brought gains in martial path application and combat experience.

Recalling the day's battle, despite Zi Ling being at a half-step into the Creation Realm cultivation, her actual combat strength could likely rival that of a typical fourth-layer Creation Realm expert.

This was stronger than that elder from the Flying Crane Sect.

Lin Chen carefully thought about today's battle; frontal confrontation surely wouldn't work due to Zi Ling's overwhelming combat strength.

Thus, Lin Chen had to focus on movement technique speed, dodging Zi Ling's attacks while waiting for a chance to strike back.

Of course, winning was currently almost impossible; his goal was to withstand Zi Ling's attacks longer, which was considered an improvement.

After deliberation, Lin Chen decided to continue training speed in movement techniques.

He directed his attention to training the Purple Thunder Shield Technique, a spell combining the power of wind and thunder concepts.

After training for five days in the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen's Purple Thunder Shield Technique finally broke through, reaching the fifth level.

Swish, swish—

Lin Chen immediately cast the spell, and the speed of the Purple Thunder Shield Technique was several times faster than before at the fourth level.

With Lin Chen's current cultivation, casting the Purple Thunder Shield Technique, he could instantly flee thousands of miles away, faster than the previous Space Compression Talisman inscription.

However, the Purple Thunder Shield Technique couldn't be maintained for long due to enormous spiritual power consumption.

With Lin Chen's current cultivation, he could cast the Purple Thunder Shield Technique fully five times at most.

Still, this spell was invaluable for escaping or surprise attacks in combat.

Yet during training with Zi Ling, the Purple Thunder Shield Technique seemed useless, as fleeing the stage using a spell wouldn't do during a match against Zi Ling.

Doing so would surely get Lin Chen caught and pummeled.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen nodded helplessly, pondering his fate of being endlessly pummeled by Zi Ling during this period.

Lin Chen exited the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, where five days in the second layer space equated to less than a night outside, and it was now just dawn.

He walked out of the room but didn't sense the presence of Yang Minghui and others, likely because they had gone to class.

Lin Chen thought about it and decided to visit the Spirit Martial Arena of Yunlong Heavenly Palace.

However, this time, the Spirit Martial Arena was hosted by the Heaven Hall; if Lin Chen went there as himself, he'd be beaten out for sure.

So Lin Chen took out a Disguise Talisman, applying it on himself to change his appearance, ensuring that unless a Creation Realm Fifth Level expert appeared, no one would notice.

Hence, Lin Chen headed towards the Martial Arts Practice Ground to check out the Spirit Martial Arena.

Upon reaching the Martial Arts Practice Ground, Lin Chen saw it bustling with activity, crowded with people.

Looking towards the main arena, Shi An, Wang Shuo, and others were there.

Additionally, there were nearly twenty half-step Creation Realm experts.

It must be said that the Heaven Hall was indeed powerful as the leading institution among the four halls.

Despite many experts being in seclusion, the Heaven Hall could still dispatch twenty half-step Creation Realm experts to hold the ground, showcasing its strength.
