What number one disciple? Go away if you want to act cool. Do you really think you're that great?
No one in the Friar Association had ever dared to speak to Yang Jie like this. Everyone else had to be respectful whenever they saw him. Now that he was being rebuked, Yang Jie was stunned.
Then, he reacted and his face darkened. He raised his hand and waved.
A gust of wind came at him.
He was trying to send Lin Jin flying to the side.
Lin Jin felt the pressure. In terms of spells, he was clearly inferior to Yang Jie. After all, one was a professional beast appraiser while the other was the number one disciple in the Friar Association.
Hence, Lin Jin could only take this gust of wind head-on.
Fortunately, despite the strong wind pressure, he managed to endure it.
Upon seeing this, Yang Jie stepped forward and pointed a finger at Lin Jin. Unable to dodge, Lin Jin had no choice but to use his spirit energy finger.
This was one of the few offensive spells Lin Jin had mastered.
As the two fingers met, spirit energy collided.
Yang Jie was looking down on Lin Jin and his strength was higher than Lin Jin's. The strength of his finger was enough to injure Lin Jin.
In fact, Lin Jin was already injured from this clash.
After all, Yang Jie was the number one disciple in the Friar Association, and the undisputed number one. Lin Jin wasn't afraid of pet beasts, but he was far from being able to handle him in person.
If Lin Jin hadn't used his coiled wire needle to repel Yang Jie in the instant he was injured, he would have lost.
Similarly, no matter how powerful Yang Jie was, he was immediately hit by Lin Jin's pulse-seeking technique's coiled wire needle. The needle pierced through his acupoints and half of his arm went numb.
This caused Yang Jie to be extremely terrified.
He had always been a tyrant in the Friar Association, a man of his word. Whenever he ran into other disciples, they would have to make way for him. This was also the reason why he had developed a domineering habit.
But today, he met Lin Jin. Both of them were hot-tempered and fought at the slightest disagreement, resulting in injuries on both sides.
Suppressing the numbness in his arm and the surging blood in his body, Lin Jin continued forward.
As a man, he had to be tough when he needed to be.
'Either way, I'm going to fight you today. If you don't like it, let's fight again. '
Yang Jie gritted his teeth, showing no intention of making way. In fact, he was panicking. After all, he had no idea what was going on and half of his arm went numb. But now that his reputation was at stake, he couldn't back down.
One was up, and the other was down. They were about to collide.
However, just as they were about to bump into each other, the two of them moved sideways in a very 'tacit' manner, sticking close to each other and passing by each other.
It was obvious that the two of them were putting up a front. In reality, neither of them wanted to make a move. In other words, they looked tough on the outside, but they were panicking on the inside. Both of them took a step back.
Neither of them turned back. Lin Jin was heading upwards while Yang Jie was heading downwards.
When Yang Jie reached the second floor, his body swayed and he nearly stumbled. He discovered that not only was half his arm numb, but even his right leg was numb.
What kind of technique was this?
There was no need to mention the shock in his heart. At that time, he only felt a pain in his armpit, as if he had been stabbed by something.
He reached out to touch it, but he didn't feel anything.
Little did he know that Lin Jin had retracted his coiled wire needle the moment it pierced him. The coiled wire needle could be used at will, but more importantly, it was too unpredictable.
Forcing himself to walk out of the Suspended Stone Pagoda, Yang Jie's forehead was covered in sweat. He stood still and circulated his energy to clear the meridians in his body.
When the disciples who passed by saw Yang Jie, they bowed and gave way in fear of disturbing him.
After an entire hour, Yang Jie finally took his leave. However, he was already extremely wary of that person. When he returned to the Friar Association, he would definitely investigate when such a ferocious person appeared.
On the third floor, Lin Jin wasn't having a good time either. His opponent's spirit energy finger technique was far superior to his. After all, Lin Jin's spirit energy finger technique was mostly used to treat beasts. He didn't have any actual combat experience.
What happened today made Lin Jin understand that if he fell behind, he would be beaten. If he wanted to become the number one disciple in the future, he would have to overcome the mountain that was Yang Jie.
After taking a energy gathering pill and using the needle to treat his injury, Lin Jin was thinking about something.
Previously, he only used the coiled wire needle for beast evaluation. Now that he was using it in actual combat, it was indeed unpredictable. His opponent didn't notice it at all.
On the day of the tournament, Lin Jin would have to rely on this coiled wire needle technique to stand a chance of winning.
As for whether people would call it a hidden weapon, Lin Jin didn't care.
A cultivator's techniques included hidden weapons. Even if someone saw through it, he wasn't afraid.
After recuperating for a while, Lin Jin was fine.
His encounter with Yang Jie today was unexpected. It was an accidental feud.
But so be it. Lin Jin had no intention of befriending him. Moreover, he would have to compete in the disciple tournament half a month later. No matter how he looked at it, Yang Jie was his main competitor.
Once he was done recuperating, Lin Jin continued to test his spirit energy level.
There were three sets of spirit levitation stones in each of the examination rooms on the third floor. Lin Jin entered and cast a stone levitation spell. In an instant, twenty-nine spirit levitation stones floated up.
This was Lin Jin's current limit.
Lin Jin tried to lift another stone but gave up in the end. He couldn't do it.
Twenty-nine stones of spirit energy was a terrifying amount. Lin Jin was quite satisfied with himself. This was five stones more than what Lu Yunhe had.
Moreover, there was still some time before the disciple tournament. Lin Jin still had time to improve.
Glancing at the time, Lin Jin decided to return to the Beast Appraisal Association and finish the appraisal and treatment of the registered pet beasts. Based on his current speed, he could finish thirty-five pets in a day. If he was serious, he could finish them all in half a day.
Back at the consultation hall, Lin Jin saw an extra plaque so he asked what was going on.
Zhao Ying went up to him and said, "Someone sent it here early in the morning with a letter."
Lin Jin took the letter and understood.
It was from Chen Wenlin.
Sure enough, the man didn't intend to give up just like that. But what was he doing earlier?
Lin Jin didn't think much of it. It was just a plaque. Since it was delivered, he might as well keep it. But don't even think about changing Lin Jin's opinion of the Chen family.
He began his regular beast appraisal and treatment.
Numbers were put up outside and people started coming in one after another.
In the Beast Appraisal Association, Lin Jin's numbers were undoubtedly in high demand. Many people came early in the morning just to get their hands on Lin Jin's number.
Lin Jin no longer relied on the Museum of Deadly Beasts for his beast appraisal and treatment. There were so many useful beast appraisal manuals in the museum that he wanted to learn and practice them.
After all, the Museum of Deadly Beasts had come into being mysteriously. Who knew when it would disappear in the future?
Lin Jin understood the principle of being prepared. Even if the Museum of Deadly Beasts disappeared in the future, he could still rely on his own abilities to appraise and treat beasts.
However, all pet beasts that came here had to be recorded in the museum.
Once Lin Jin started appraising beasts, it was easy for him to get lost in the flow of time. Among the pet beasts that came today, there were quite a few rare beasts.
Just as Lin Jin finished appraising a rare beast and recorded it in the museum, the next moment, the museum's bell rang loudly, shocking the surroundings.
Stunned, Lin Jin took a look and realized that the number of rare beasts he recorded in the museum had somehow reached fifty.
With that, a cultivation technique was handed down.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Part Two of the Beast Energy Formation.
