Chapter 12: The frustrated Yu Xiaogang

“You must be joking. If you can’t find a solution, what solution could I possibly think of?”

Li Tian had a smile on his face.

“Do you still need anything? If not, I’ll head back first.”

Yu Xiaogang’s expression was a bit unpleasant.

He felt like Li Tian was playing with him, yet he had no evidence, which made him feel quite displeased.

“Do you know that the efficiency of the meditation Cultivation method is very low?”

Even though he wanted to kick Li Tian out, he thought about how rare a Genius was.

Yu Xiaogang still kept his patience.

And he prepared to throw out a trump card to intimidate him, making him willingly acknowledge him as his master.

Li Tian instantly knew what he wanted to say.

When Tang San acknowledged his master in the original work, Yu Xiaogang gave him a small notebook.

It recorded the spirit power circulation routes.

That was the optimal spirit power circulation route that Yu Xiaogang had developed through years of research.

It was similar to Internal Skill in martial arts.

The Cultivation effect should be faster than ordinary meditation methods, but only by a limited amount.

Li Tian was indeed a little interested, but not much.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill in the original work was clearly hyped up as very strong, but in reality, it didn’t play a significant role.

Tang San’s Cultivation speed wasn’t much faster than others.

He didn’t know if the author deliberately suppressed the combat power, or if Mysterious Heaven Skill was not as powerful as it was boasted to be.

Looking at it from all angles.

It seems its only advantage was being able to Cultivate before Spirit Awakening.

“I have something else to do, I’m heading back now.”

Li Tian was too lazy to waste more words with him, turned around and left. Yu Xiaogang hadn’t even reacted by the time he walked out the door.

Pretend to agree, get the Cultivation Technique first, and then talk?

Although Li Tian didn’t think his reputation was worth much, it wasn’t cheap enough to stoop to that level.

It would be almost worth it if it was all the Tang Sect’s unique skills.

Yu Xiaogang: “???”

No, what’s wrong with this kid? Does he really not have any curiosity at all?

Any normal person.

Would at least wait for him to explain further before deciding whether to stay or leave, right?

Why did he just walk away so straightforwardly?

“Damn it!”

Yu Xiaogang slammed his palm on the desk, not understanding which part had gone wrong.

He always felt that the kid seemed to reject him a little.

Someone must have spoken ill of him, otherwise why would he inexplicably reject me?

Damn it!

You better not let me find you, or you’ll be in big trouble.

What to do?

Yu Xiaogang, having calmed down, fell into deep thought, at a loss for what to do for a moment.

He used his trump card, but the other person wasn’t interested at all.

And he didn’t even give him a chance to fool him; that kid didn’t seem like a commoner from the countryside at all.

spirit power circulation routes won’t work.

Then his remaining advantage is only connections. Will that kid submit because of connections?

Hard to say.

Any country boy would have been won over by him already, but that kid is clearly a freak.

He might not fall for this trick.

It seems that if I want to take him as a disciple, I need to plan long-term. At the very least, I need to find the guy who spoke ill of me.

Only by first changing his impression of me.

And then letting him see my talent, resources, and connections.

Only then might he submit.

…

Three days, in just three days, Li Tian completed the one-on-three challenge.

And on the fourth day, he easily defeated Wang Sheng.

Without using his Spirit and Spirit Ability, he could even fight three people at the same time, going back and forth.

Not falling behind.

Of course, this doesn’t mean his combat experience has improved significantly.

But rather, it’s a crushing advantage in attributes.

If you asked him to fight Tang San, that cheater, he would most likely still lose.

Even if he used his Spirit and Spirit Ability, it would be the same.

After all, that guy has Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Mysterious Jade Hand, and Purple Demon Eye.

How do you fight that?

Among Spirit Masters of the same Realm, very few could win against that guy in a one-on-one fight.

If he used Hidden Weapons, it would be even more formidable.

This is also why Li Tian didn’t dare to stand against him.

No cheats, I really can’t win.

Li Tian and the others finished their practice and were sitting under a large tree, resting and enjoying the cool.

“Clap, clap, clap…”

Applause suddenly sounded, and Xiao Chenyu walked over with a group of his subordinates.

“Xiao Chenyu, what are you doing here?”

Wang Sheng suddenly stood up, glaring fiercely at Xiao Chenyu and the others.

The others also stood up.

Xiao Chenyu said, “I heard you poor guys are training in the back mountain every day, so I specifically came to take a look.”

Ling Feng asked, “What, not allowed to watch?”

Liu Long mocked, “It’s not me saying this, but aren’t you guys really naive to think that just relying on effort can make up for the gap between us?”

Li Tian stepped forward and asked, “You’re Boss Xiao, right?”

Xiao Chenyu looked Li Tian up and down, then turned to look at Liu Long and the others.

Liu Long said, “Don’t know him, he should be a new work-study student.”

Although he was a bit puzzled as to why a work-study student would come to school at the end of the semester.

But this was the only possibility.

Xiao Chenyu didn’t pay too much attention, after all, he was just a work-study student.

“What can I do for you?”

Li Tian said, “Let’s have a fight. If I lose, I’ll let you do whatever you want with me, but if I win, you have to agree to one condition of mine.”

“Hahahaha…”

Ling Feng and the others couldn’t help but burst into laughter when they heard this, as if they had heard the biggest joke in the world.

Liu Long mocked, “Brother, are you sick?”

“Looking at your clothes, you should also be a work-study student. Do you even deserve to fight with our Boss Xiao?”

“Go look at yourself in a puddle.”

Wang Sheng said with a smile, “What? Scared? You can just say you’re scared. Although we’re poor, we have manners and won’t mock you.”

“You damn…”

Liu Long was about to flare up but was stopped by Xiao Chenyu.

“You seem to have a lot of confidence.”

Xiao Chenyu re-examined Li Tian. He always felt that this kid might not be simple.

His own strength.

He’s new and doesn’t know, but Wang Sheng and the others surely know, right?

If they know and still dare to speak so arrogantly, he must have some skill.

But it’s not a big problem. What can a work-study student, no matter how capable, do?

At such a young age, could he be a Spirit Master?

Li Tian said, “Just tell me if you’ll fight or not. Don’t worry, I won’t make you do anything difficult.”

“Alright, why not three conditions instead of one?”

Xiao Chenyu smiled faintly, pointing at Liu Long and the others and saying, “But if you want to fight me, you have to beat them first.”

He wasn’t a reckless person.

If the other party dared to step up, they must have some skill. It would be safer to let Liu Long and the others test the waters first.

Wang Sheng whispered, “He wants to probe your depth.”

Li Tian smiled, “It doesn’t matter. My depth is not something they can probe.”

Although Wang Sheng felt something was amiss, he didn’t say anything more.

After all, up until now, they didn’t even know what Li Tian’s Spirit was.

Let alone his Spirit Ability.

Moreover, the impression Li Tian gave them was not that of an arrogant person.

Since he said so, he must have the confidence not to fear.

Li Tian waved his hand, and Wang Sheng and the others retreated to a large tree not far away.

“Come on, who’s first?”
