After breaking through bronze-level with Lin Xin, Lin Xin took less than a day to elevate her combat strength to bronze-level rank-3 by consuming Life Crystals.
Her speed of elevating her combat strength was so terrifying that even Lin Huang, a man with a Goldfinger, had to admit defeat.
Fortunately, she could not rely on Life Crystals to break through. Otherwise, she would be able to reach imperial-level within a week.
Now that Lin Xin's Life Power was considered to have reached a higher level, Lin Huang began spending one day a week to guide Lin Xin on her cultivation. His main goal was to train her combat ability. Lin Xin's combat ability was improving rapidly.
Apart from guiding Lin Xin, Lin Huang also did his best to teach the students. Every Friday, he would teach the students from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. However, he would teach them until 11 p.m. or even 12 p.m. Each class was equivalent to three classes. However, the students in Class 2 of the Sword Dao faculty were all geniuses. None of them complained. Instead, they worked hard to become more powerful.
The battle drill at the beginning of December happened to coincide with Lin Huang being investigated for Hong Zhuang. The results of Class 2 of the Sword Dao faculty were not ideal. Although they ranked second among the new students in the Sword Dao faculty, they were more than 200 points behind Class 1 and almost got the second place by Class 3. Their total score was less than 20 points higher than Class 1. That ignited the fire in the hearts of the young students who were extremely competitive.
Lin Huang was satisfied with the students' performance.
Qin Tianxing seemed to be in low spirits after the incident with Hong Zhuang. He did not attend Lin Huang's class anymore. Lin Huang knew that it was not because he disliked him, but because he liked Hong Zhuang. The news of Hong Zhuang being a member of the Purple Crow and her death was a huge blow to him.
However, Lin Huang did not plan to tell Qin Tianxing that Hong Zhuang was still alive. Firstly, Hong Zhuang needed him to keep it a secret. Secondly, he did not want Old Qin to get too close to Hong Zhuang. With Lao Qin's personality, it was highly likely that he would be toyed to death by Hong Zhuang. Lao Qin was one of the few good friends he had in the Martial Arts Academy. Lin Huang did not want to see him being dragged into the abyss by Hong Zhuang.
Time flew by, and it was already the end of December.
It had snowed in some parts of the White Capital. Although the central area of the Martial Arts Academy had always been sunny, the lake in the academy had started to freeze. Students in down jackets could be seen everywhere.
Of course, this temperature was nothing to a Transcendent Ranker.
Lin Huang was still dressed in casual clothes. Every day, he would go to the library, the practice room, and the teacher's dormitory.
After dinner, it was time to fight with Liu Ming.
Liu Ming suppressed his combat level to purple flame-level to train with Lin Huang. If not for the breakthrough in his Sword Dao, he might not be able to fight Lin Huang even if he suppressed his combat level to gold flame-level.
Throughout the 20 days, he was shocked by Lin Huang's ability. He could feel Lin Huang's improvement every time they fought. One must know that both of them were fighting each other every day. Under such circumstances, he could feel that Lin Huang was getting more powerful. It was a rather terrifying thing.
Under the pressure of Liu Ming's terrifying Sword Dao and his absolute ability, Lin Huang was no longer limited to sword skills. He even used Vampire Particles, Telekinesis, Witchcraft, Punishment, and other monster skills.
Not only was his Sword Dao increasing slowly, but Lin Huang was also getting more familiar with the usage of Vampire Particles, Telekinesis, Witchcraft, and other skills. He even developed many new skills with these monster skills. Even the first new skill that was modified from Worldly Purification was basically completed. Lin Huang named it Flowing Flame Blade!
Although it was called a skill, it actually contained thousands of ways to attack. However, the final effect was similar to Worldly Purification, which was to burn the target into ashes.
Lin Huang was now studying the second skill. He wanted to condense Thunder Sting into a more powerful and faster lightning attack. He had discussed it with Liu Ming a few times and practiced it for a few days. However, he still had no idea.
"Brother, why are you still going to the library? You should have finished reading all the sword skills in the school, right? I've shown you the few sword skills that aren't available in the library. Why don't you use the time you spend in the library to practice? " Liu Ming had been fighting with Lin Huang every day for the past few days. He always felt refreshed. Lin Huang's Sword Dao was completely different from his. Although Lin Huang's understanding of Sword Dao was not as deep as Liu Ming's, there were many new things that he could learn. Therefore, he wanted to practice for a few more hours every day.
"I've finished reading all the sword skills and I've learned all of them." Lin Huang nodded, "I'm looking at other types of combat skills, including Sword Dao, Spear Dao, and even Gunfighting Skills. I'm trying to see if there's anything I can learn from them."
Liu Ming was stunned. He had never thought of looking at other types of combat skills. After listening to what Lin Huang said, he felt that it was a new way of thinking. However, there were some drawbacks. "It's okay for you to look at them. Just don't go astray."
"Don't worry. I won't go that far." Lin Huang shook his head and smiled.
"By the way, it's less than a month before the holidays. What's your plan?" Liu Ming asked expectantly. He was not asking about his plan during the holidays. Instead, he was asking if Lin Huang wanted to stay in the Martial Arts Academy after this semester.
Lin Huang understood what Liu Ming meant. He smiled and shook his head. "I'll leave Division 7 after I've settled some things. I won't be able to stay in the next semester."
Although Liu Ming was disappointed, he had expected that. "It's good that you're leaving. You can't grow a dragon in shallow waters. Your real stage is still in the core zone. However, there's no need for you to resign. I'll keep your position for you. You can come back when you're free. "
"Senior, you've leveled up to imperial-level this time. Will you be transferred next year?" Lin Huang thought about it.
"Yes, I've been informed by the higher-ups two days ago. I'll be the deputy dean of the Martial Arts Academy in Division 3." Liu Ming nodded. "There'll be a new dean here, but it won't affect your position. Many of the powerhouses in the academy don't teach. Moreover, the Martial Arts Academy's system is connected. If you're willing, you can be a teacher in Division 3 with me. "
"I don't think I'll be a teacher. I don't think I'll have the energy." Lin Huang shook his head and rejected.
"Then, I'll just be a teacher. That's settled then. "Liu Ming did not allow Lin Huang to reject him.
"Alright then …" Lin Huang did not reject Liu Ming as he saw how determined Liu Ming was.
"Oh yeah, senior, there's something else." Lin Huang recalled something that he wanted to ask Liu Ming or Mr. Fu. "You know that I've leveled up to holy fire-level. However, if I don't join an organization, I won't be able to get access to many channels of information. Is there any good solution?"
"If you don't join an organization, there's really no good solution. Most of the information is monopolized by organizations. The information above transcendent is sold at a high price in the black market. Some of the free information is sold at a high price, and there's a lot of fake information. The best solution is to join an organization … Of course, if you really don't want to join an organization, you can build your own small organization. However, you'll have to work with an organization to get access to information. There's no other way. If you want to build your own information channel, you'll need at least tens of years to complete it. " Liu Ming did not have a good solution. "Actually, I think it's easy for you to get an executive token in the Hunters' Association. The Hunters' Association has a lot of freedom."
"People below executive level in the Hunters' Association have freedom. Those above executive level will have to sign a contract and they'll have to complete missions every year. I'm used to being free … "Lin Huang smiled awkwardly and shook his head." I'll think about it. "
Positions above executive level in the Hunters' Association were official positions in the Hunters' Association. Naturally, there would be some restrictions and they would not have as much freedom as ordinary hunters.
"Why don't you ask Mr. Fu again?" Liu Ming could not think of a better solution.
"Alright, I'll ask him when he comes back a few days later. He might be busy now." Lin Huang nodded.
"Wait for him to come back? Where did he go? "Liu Ming raised his eyebrow and asked.
"He said that he's going to leave Division7 for a few days. I have no idea where he went." Lin Huang shook his head. "It's been half a month."
"Leave Division7? Why would he leave Division7?! "Liu Ming was shocked.
"Is there a problem with leaving Division7?" Lin Huang asked curiously.
"No … Nothing." Liu Ming glanced at Lin Huang and did not say anything else. He looked at the time and realized that it was past 11 pm. "It's getting late. Let's stop here."
"Brother Liu, are you hiding something about my teacher from me?" Lin Huang noticed that something was wrong.
"Since Mr. Fu didn't tell you, he must have his own thoughts. It's not my place to interrupt. It's better for you to ask him when he comes back. " Liu Ming did not deny it. He knew that if he denied it, Lin Huang might ask him about it. Therefore, he gave an excuse.
Lin Huang thought about it and did not ask further. He nodded helplessly. "Alright then."
