Chapter 215, Rank 4
Chapter 216 Fourth Rank
Lu Fengrou, who was standing to the side, stopped paying attention to Fang Ping. After all, he had already chosen to build it together, and even if it failed, it would only be a matter of taking a life-restoring pill, so it wouldn't be a big problem.
Instead, she was more concerned about another matter: "Were those photos of gay men taken by him something you were willing to do?"
Lu Fengrou stared sharply at Li Changsheng and said, as if to say, "If you don't give me an answer, I'll beat you up and that'll be the least of my worries."
Li Changsheng's face stiffened. "It has nothing to do with me. This kid was short of money; he did it himself."
"Didn't you stop him? Look at how the outside world views Fang Ping now. Do you think this kind of voice is a good thing for the atmosphere at Magic Martial Arts University?"
"I've made it clear to him that cutting off someone's livelihood is something you can't do, but he insisted on taking it himself."
Li Changsheng said in a weak tone, after all, this matter was indeed somewhat related to him, but not that much.
"I'm putting this on your tab!"
Li Changsheng's face stiffened, and he almost cursed. How could this be his fault? If it weren't for the presence of junior Lu Hao, he would definitely have had a good talk with this woman.
This is so unreasonable! Someone's suddenly burdened with this problem for no reason. Who could stand it?
Li Changsheng snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Lu Hao, who was standing nearby, burst into laughter at the sight. Lü Fengrou was truly resourceful, leaving Li Changsheng speechless with bitterness.
"Teacher Lü, don't blame Teacher Li too much. He didn't expect these rumors to spread so widely." Lu Hao said with a smile. On the surface, he was speaking up for Li Changsheng, but in reality, he had already confirmed that Li Changsheng was the one to blame.
"I—you—Lu boy—you're really something!" Ji Changsheng opened his mouth, unsure what to say.
He shouldn't have come here. It's such a shame. There's a saying that goes, "Only the person who wronged you knows how wronged you are."
"Teacher Li, I'm perfectly fine. After all, my spiritual power has materialized, how could I not be?"
Lu Hao continued to press on, because this old man always liked to tease him, and now he'd caught him red-handed.
Li Changsheng's face was so black it could be used as coal; the resentment emanating from him could probably feed ten Evil Sword Immortals.
"Alright, stop teasing him."
Lu Fengrou transmitted her thoughts through mental energy.
Lu Hao said no more and watched with a smile as Fang Ping made a breakthrough in the room.
As the blood cocoons on Fang Ping's body grew thicker and thicker, they completely enveloped him.
After a while, Lü Fengrou suddenly said, "Three are left, two more to go."
Lu Hao wasn't worried about anything at all, after all, Fang Ping had a system, how could he possibly fail?
Song Yingji glanced at the instrument panel outside the door, then came in and said, "My heart has collapsed."
Neither Li Changsheng nor Lü Fengrou spoke.
Song Yingji, his face stiff, said again, "The fifth-rank underground warrior in charge of energy supply is dead."
"Little Song, I have to say something to you. It's just a mere fifth-rank. Once Fang Ping breaks through, just have him go down into the underground cave and bring one back for you. When Fang Ping breaks through, even a fifth-rank is no match for him. What's a fifth-rank?
Song Yingji was exasperated by Li Changsheng's words. He was only a fifth-rank official; couldn't he please refrain from saying such things in front of him?
No, he has to go down into the underground cave to break through. Otherwise, after being oppressed by the older generation, he'll have to be oppressed by the younger ones too.
Song Yingji planned to go down into the underground cave after Fang Ping finished his breakthrough, and then she wouldn't come out again until she broke through to the next level.
Qin Fengqing and Wang Jinyang, standing to the side, also showed no expression. Although their cultivation level was still fifth rank, their combat strength had long since reached sixth rank, so they didn't consider themselves fifth rank at all, but rather as two sixth rank martial artists. Therefore, the only one injured on the scene was Song Yingji, the only pitiful person.
Everyone continued to wait, when Lü Fengrou suddenly said, "Close the energy sealing barrier!"
Song Yingji immediately began to operate, and the wall inside the Qi and Blood Pool floated slightly, as if an invisible film had disappeared.
Energy began to flow into the room from all around, no longer flowing in a slow, steady stream as before.
Fang Ping also began to absorb energy, and the surrounding energy was actively entering his body.
Seeing this, Lü Fengrou raised an eyebrow and said, "The Bridge of Heaven and Earth is stable and has begun to absorb energy. It seems his breakthrough is on track."
"Judging from this, his Bridge to Heaven and Earth is quite stable. After adapting for a while, he can start tempering his five internal organs. He might even reach the high-level of the fourth rank before the end of the year. Lu Hao, are you nervous? This guy might catch up with you soon, while you've been stuck at the sixth rank of the Sealed Gate."
Li Changsheng said with a smile that he was starting to retaliate against Lu Hao's earlier act of taking advantage of his misfortune.
"Teacher Li, I'm still far behind him. Besides, it's not like I'm not improving even if I close my doors. Slower progress is still progress."
Lu Hao said.
"Hehe, who knows? Maybe Fang Ping will reach the high-level rank faster than you."
His bone marrow was fully developed, and his mental strength was considerable. After reaching the seventh rank, once his skull tempering was completed...
Soon he will be an eighth-grade Golden Body Realm expert, and as for the ninth grade, it may not be long before that happens.
Li Changsheng said with a smile that it seemed Lu Hao was really not as good as Fang Ping.
"Tch, Teacher Li, I've already manifested my spiritual power. Once I reach the seventh rank, I'll be faster than him. You should worry more about yourself. You haven't finished instigating Fang Ping to film GG yet," Lu Hao said with a smile.
"I already said, I didn't instigate it, it has nothing to do with me, don't try to pin the blame on the teacher," Li Changsheng said, cursing.
"Who knows? We'll find out when Fang Ping comes out and ask him. That will clear Teacher Li's name."
Lu Hao said with a smile.
Li Changsheng remained silent. Didn't he know what Fang Ping was like? As long as Lü Fengrou asked, that guy would definitely shift the blame onto him.
Am I really destined to take the blame for this?
"Alright, that's enough. He's about to break through."
Lu Fengrou spoke first, after all, she still wanted to give Li Changsheng a way out. As for the truth of the matter, she already knew it, and she was just teasing Li Changsheng.
"Hmph, I'm not going to bother with a little brat like you."
Li Changsheng said something and then looked at Fang Ping, who was breaking through in the room, with a serious expression, as if there was some big secret inside that was worth his attention.
Lu Hao didn't say anything more, otherwise, if he angered this guy, what if he stabbed him?
It's good that Fang Ping is taking the blame now. He can be reborn at the end of the year. Lu Hao can't get that much life essence, so he can only try to keep the original plot and let Fang Ping help Old Man Li.
Meanwhile, Fang Ping in the cultivation room absorbed the surrounding energy, and the construction progressed even faster. The fourth step was successfully completed.
The last bridge between heaven and earth was successfully built. When the fifth bridge between heaven and earth appeared, Fang Ping felt a jolt. His internal organs absorbed the surrounding free energy particles, and his blood and qi were rapidly recovering.
At the same time, his qi and blood were slowly increasing on their own, and it would take some time before they reached their limit, which was similar to Lu Hao's situation at the time.
