Xie Junyan was still thinking about how to win Ning Lingyu's heart. Of course, he would not admit to Tang Meng's accusation that he and Zhuang Meina had teased Ning Lingyu.
Tang Meng had long known that Xie Junyan would deny it. He only sneered in disdain and did not bother to argue.
"Hmph, so what if we deliberately teased Ning Lingyu?"
Zhuang Meina was not stupid. She knew that even though she was Xie Junyan's girlfriend in name, in his eyes, she was just a substitute for Ning Lingyu.
She was embarrassed and angry at the same time. Coupled with her jealousy, her temper had completely exploded. She did not care how many students were watching, nor did she care about Xie Junyan's reputation. She even dragged Xie Junyan into the fray while provoking him.
"Nothing much!" Ling Yun, who had been leaning against the railing, suddenly straightened his body and took a step forward.
Ling Yun's voice was not loud and there was no sign of anger on his face. He was still smiling, but his smile was as cold as a thousand-year-old iceberg.
It was a light step, but it carried an inexplicable pressure.
By now, the news of Ling Yun beating up Gou Junfa had already spread like wildfire. Everyone in the school knew about it. Noticing Ling Yun's displeased expression, the surrounding students immediately took a step back.
According to Tang Meng and Ning Lingyu's understanding of Ling Yun, if Zhuang Meina and Xie Junyan said anything that annoyed Ling Yun, he would immediately attack.
Zhuang Meina saw that Ling Yun was getting closer to her and her face turned pale. However, she stood there unyieldingly and did not retreat.
Xie Junyan's eyes narrowed and his pupils constricted. It was obvious that he was not afraid of Ling Yun.
"Brother, forget it …" Ning Lingyu suddenly reached out and tugged on Ling Yun's shirt, shaking it lightly.
After all, they were at the entrance of Grade 12 Class 1 and the third period of self-study was about to start. Ning Lingyu did not want her brother to get into a fight because of her.
Her brother had caused enough trouble today!
Ling Yun looked at his sister and the smile on his face became as warm as the spring breeze. He nodded his head lightly.
Then, without turning his head, his voice turned cold as he said, "I'm warning you, if anyone dares to bully my sister or make her unhappy, I don't care if he's a man or a woman, and I don't care who he is, I'll make him pay the price!"
With that, Ling Yun smiled at Lingyu and patted her shoulder affectionately before turning around to leave.
Including Xie Junyan and Zhuang Meina, no one in Grade 12 Class 1 dared to utter a single word after hearing Ling Yun's blatant threat and warning.
Ning Lingyu watched as Ling Yun left. Her beautiful face was filled with joy, contentment, and happiness.
"Fatty, why didn't you attack just now? If you want to make a move, we'll take care of Xie Junyan today! "
Tang Meng naturally followed Ling Yun down the stairs. He recalled how Ling Yun had beaten up Tu Gang during dinner and was puzzled as to why Ling Yun did not make a move.
Ling Yun stopped and asked with a frown, "How old are you this year?"
"Seventeen and a half. What's wrong?"
"You have to call me brother in the future, remember? I'll only say it once. If you can't remember it, be careful that your butt will explode! "
Ling Yun was very satisfied with Tang Meng's performance just now and had started to accept him as a brother.
At this point in time, Tang Meng did not realize how much benefit Ling Yun would bring him by calling him brother. However, he thought that if he won Lingyu's heart, he would still have to call Ling Yun brother-in-law. The sooner he got used to it, the better. Thus, he reluctantly said, "Alright, brother, why didn't you make a move just now?"
Ling Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I know you wanted to fight tonight, but didn't you see that Lingyu was holding onto my arm?"
However, after some thought, he solemnly reminded, "In the future, if I'm not around, don't fight with Xie Junyan."
Tang Meng did not put Xie Junyan in his eyes at all. He said disdainfully, "Him? I can fight three of him alone! "
Ling Yun shook his head with a serious look on his face. "You're wrong. He can fight five of you alone!"
"What?!"
Tang Meng was stunned on the spot.
In terms of height, size, and fighting experience, Tang Meng believed that Xie Junyan was definitely not his match. Now that he heard Ling Yun say that five of them could not even defeat one of Xie Junyan, he was naturally shocked.
"Believe me, he definitely has the ability to do so!" Ling Yun patted Tang Meng's shoulder and said in a serious tone.
Ling Yun clearly saw that when he took that step forward, the reason why Zhuang Meina did not retreat was because of her temper. Even though she was afraid of being beaten up, she did not want to embarrass herself.
Xie Junyan was different. When the surrounding students retreated, not only did Xie Junyan not retreat, he even took half a step forward with his right foot.
At the same time, his hands were clenched into fists, making a very standard posture that allowed him to attack or retreat.
He was a martial artist!
An expert would know the moment he stretched out his hand.
With one look, Ling Yun could tell that Xie Junyan's movements were not simple. At the very least, he knew martial arts.
That was why he reminded Tang Meng out of goodwill, afraid that he would fall into Xie Junyan's trap if he was not careful.
"Are you serious? I've never heard of Xie Junyan practicing martial arts. Boss, are you bluffing me? Or, did you see wrongly? "
Tang Meng had always thought that Xie Junyan was just a weak and treacherous playboy. If he wanted to beat him up, it would be a piece of cake.
Now that he heard that Xie Junyan beating him up was a piece of cake, Tang Meng could not accept the truth.
Ling Yun did not explain further. He smiled faintly and said, "You're right to listen to me. Go do your own things, I still have something to do tonight, I'll head back to the dormitory first."
Tang Meng felt that Ling Yun was very mysterious today. He really wanted to follow Ling Yun to find out what caused Ling Yun to change so much in one night. However, Ling Yun had already asked him to leave, so he had no reason to follow.
Looking at Ling Yun's silhouette getting further and further away, Tang Meng suddenly thought of something and asked, "Boss, can you beat Xie Junyan?"
Ling Yun's hearty laughter could be heard, "What do you think?"
Ling Yun did not lie to Tang Meng. He indeed had something to do tonight, and it was something very important.
He had used up all the spiritual energy he had absorbed from the Shichiyou herb through his crazy running this morning. He did not expect Ning Lingyu to have an innate spiritual body. Therefore, whenever he was with Ning Lingyu, he would use his innate ability to absorb the spiritual energy emitted from Ning Lingyu's body.
This was also the reason why he could still be so energetic even after running 11 laps with the sandbag.
Otherwise, even if Ling Yun's body had been cleansed by the Immortal Spiritual Energy and his body had been reborn, he would still have to endure the fatigue and fatigue caused by the crazy consumption of energy.
Since Ning Lingyu did not cultivate, the spiritual energy emitted from her body was very little. It was not even a quarter of the amount of spiritual energy emitted from the Shichiyou herb. However, this was already a great help to Ling Yun.
In total, Ling Yun had spent more than two hours with Ning Lingyu today. His body was almost saturated with the spiritual energy that he had absorbed. Therefore, he had to use up all the spiritual energy before heading to the Shichiyou Herb in order to increase his cultivation level to the greatest extent.
Therefore, what Ling Yun had to do now was to repeat the exercise he had done in the morning, which was to carry the new sandbag and run!
After separating from Tang Meng, Ling Yun quickly returned to his dormitory. First, he tied the two small sandbags to his calves. Then, he carried the 25kg sandbag on his shoulders and ran down the stairs.
Thinking about the impact of his morning run, Ling Yun did not run on the school field this time. Instead, he ran across the field and climbed over the wall from where he had entered the school last night.
This was a narrow and winding path behind the school. Usually, other than students who were in love, very few people would come here. Compared to the Xuefu Road in front of the school gate, this path was many times quieter.
It was half past eight in the evening. Ling Yun identified the direction and started running just like he did in the morning on the sports field.
It could be said that after forcefully breaking through the limits of his body, Ling Yun's body was much stronger than it was in the morning. After running for about three kilometers, the accumulated spiritual energy in his body began to circulate and flow through his bones, muscles and meridians.
This time, Ling Yun ran for a full hour and a half, about eight kilometers, before completely exhausting the spiritual energy in his body.
At 10 pm, Ling Yun carried the sandbag and arrived at the place where he had found the Shichiyou Herb last night.
At this time, he was already exhausted. After reaching his destination, he threw the sandbag aside and sat on it to rest before coming to the side of the Shichiyou Herb.
As the temperature of the night dropped rapidly, the grass by the river was already covered with crystal clear dew. However, this did not affect Ling Yun who was already drenched.
Ling Yun sat down cross-legged beside the Shichiyou herb and began his first breakthrough.
Ling Yun's physique tempering technique was called the Stellar Condensation Technique. As long as he had mastered the first stage, he could continuously use the essence of the sun, moon and stars to cleanse and transform his body.
If the Stellar Condensation Technique was cultivated to the extreme, one would be able to draw upon the power of the stars in heaven and earth and convert it to their own use. Their bodies would be as strong as the stars, and even in the cultivation world, it was a technique that everyone fought for.
Only those who had reached the peak of physique tempering could cultivate their Qi. Therefore, Ling Yun chose this physique tempering technique.
After sitting cross-legged, Ling Yun first began to absorb the spiritual energy from the Shichiyou Herb to restore his exhausted body to its peak condition.
After his body had completely recovered, Ling Yun silently activated the technique and began to break through to the first stage of physique tempering!
As the Yang Heel Meridian had yet to recover, Ling Yun faced great difficulty in breaking through to the first stage of physique tempering. Even with the soul of a Tribulation Cultivator, it took him a whole three hours to complete!
As the sound of beans popping could be heard rhythmically in his body, Ling Yun's face lit up and he began to work hard to consolidate the results of his breakthrough.
At one o 'clock in the morning, Ling Yun finally stopped.
"It seems like I was thinking too simply. I thought that I would be able to break through to the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Two in one go. In the end, I only managed to break through to Physique Tempering Stage One. I didn't even reach the peak of Physique Tempering Stage One!"
After reaching Physique Tempering Stage One, Ling Yun felt that the strength in his body had more than doubled.
