Five years later, outside Shrek City, in the Lin family's carriage.
"Xiao Feng, after you enroll at Shrek Academy, don't get involved with them too much. Don't believe anything about the academy's eternal glory; those are just Shrek's brainwashing tricks. Also, don't go to the Shrek Supervisory Committee..."
Lin Xiaotian gave Lin Feng some advice with a worried expression, fearing that he might be tricked by Shrek Academy into sacrificing himself for the academy after enrolling.
Lin Feng nodded. As an old man who had lived two lives, he wouldn't have believed Shrek Academy's nonsense even without Lin Xiaotian's reminder.
His purpose in going to Shrek Academy was to become stronger.
In Lin Feng's vision, the countdown of the blood mark slowly appeared:
[3...2...1...0!]
[Evolution complete: Gentle Breeze Sword → Gale Sword!]
Seeing Lin Feng's aloof demeanor, Lin Xiaotian sighed. The child had grown up, his cultivation had become stronger, and he no longer liked listening to his nonsense. He really missed the obedient and adorable little Lin Feng from before.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Lin Xiaotian felt a gust of wind blowing through the carriage from who-knows-where.
The carriage was completely enclosed, so where was the wind coming from? Just as he was wondering, he suddenly realized that the wind was actually blowing from Lin Feng's body.
"Whoosh~~"
Lin Feng's hair was blown about by the wind, dancing wildly. The wind grew stronger and stronger, and the items in the carriage were blown to the ground with a clattering sound.
Lin Xiaotian was stunned. This was...
"Clang!!!"
With a crisp sword cry, intense wind pressure spread outwards.
With a loud "boom," the carriage exploded.
The horse was startled, and even the coachman couldn't calm it down.
Lin Feng suddenly opened his eyes, and a brand-new longsword was already in his hand. The blade was three-tenths wider, and its color had changed from light green to deep dark blue, covered with dense wind patterns, making it incredibly mysterious.
If the Qingfeng Sword gives people a feeling of lightness, then the Kuangfeng Sword adds a bit of power to that lightness!
"Xiao Feng! What are you doing?!"
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Grandpa, my martial soul has evolved."
"evolution???"
Lin Xiaotian was incredibly excited, his old face flushed red. He never expected that Lin Feng's martial soul could evolve before he even entered Shrek Academy!
The Lin family has a thousand-year-old tradition, and every generation takes pride in the Qingfeng Sword. Who would have thought that this martial spirit, passed down for thousands of years, could evolve in Lin Feng's hands! This is simply unheard of!
"Xiao Feng, this...this really is the Qingfeng Sword?"
Seeing his shocked expression, Lin Feng laughed and said, "Grandpa, of course it's the Qingfeng Sword, but it's not the same as before. I call it the Kuangfeng Sword now. If you don't believe me, you can try its power."
"Come!"
Lin Xiaotian released a surge of soul power at the level of a Great Soul Master, forming a clear green protective shield around him.
Lin Feng didn't waste any words. He pointed his left hand and swept it across the Gale Sword.
"Buzz!"
With a deep sword cry, Lin Feng slashed straight at him like a whirlwind.
"Snap!"
The soul power shield that Lin Xiaotian had condensed couldn't even last half a second before it shattered.
Lin Feng did not stop, but instead slashed directly at Lin Xiaotian's neck with incredible speed.
Lin Xiaotian quickly made a move, and in his haste, he only had time to extend two fingers to catch the Gale Sword, barely managing to stop Lin Feng.
The force emanating from the sword made his fingers go numb.
This power has surpassed Lin Xiaotian's understanding of the Qingfeng Sword, and even his comprehension of the attack power of agility-type soul masters!
It should be noted that Lin Feng is currently only a two-ring Great Soul Master, but his attack power is stronger than that of other powerful attack-type Soul Masters of the same level, and he may even be able to defeat a Soul Venerable.
"Good! Good! Hahaha!!" Lin Xiaotian suddenly laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.
"God bless my Lin family! Gale Sword! What a magnificent Gale Sword! This power, this speed, Little Wind, you truly are the prodigy of my Lin family! When we get to Shrek Academy, we'll chop down all those geniuses!"
He rushed over excitedly and hugged Lin Feng tightly, so tightly that he almost strangled Lin Feng to death.
"What are you doing?!"
At this point, the commotion they made finally alerted Shrek Academy's enforcement team, who came to question them.
Lin Xiaotian straightened his chest and said loudly, "We're here to enroll."
"Go that way to school, and don't cause any trouble!"
The students from the enforcement team were exasperated by this sight. Parents who think their children are geniuses are a recurring problem every year; they're truly overestimating themselves. They shook their heads helplessly and left.
Lin Xiaotian patted Lin Feng on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Go on, Xiao Feng. If you need anything, you can go to the Qingyang Chamber of Commerce in the city. Your aunt Lin Shenglan is in charge of Shrek City's business there. If you need money, just take it from her account."
Watching the carriage without a carriage drive away, Lin Feng walked in the direction the law enforcement team trainees had pointed out, found the registration line, and soon it was his turn.
He handed over the letter of recommendation from the Lord of Qingyang City, registered his information, and then input his soul power into the crystal ball used for testing.
Instantly, the crystal ball burst into a dazzling light, shining brightly even in daylight.
The trainee in charge of the testing exclaimed, "Level 27! Pass!"
His words drew envious glances from those around him, including the members of the enforcement team who had just reprimanded Lin Xiaotian. They were astonished, never expecting Lin Feng to be such a genius.
Lin Feng didn't care at all. Showing off in front of others was really meaningless. His purpose in coming to Shrek Academy was to become stronger.
After registering and paying the tuition, he went to the dormitory building for first-year students, where a hunched old man was sunbathing in a recliner.
That unique aura allowed Lin Feng to recognize his identity at a glance.
Mu En, the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, the guardian of Shrek Academy, a level 99 Limit Douluo, and the Dragon God Douluo.
As Lin Feng approached, Mu En squinted and glanced at him.
Sensing his gaze, Lin Feng smiled at him and nodded in greeting.
The next moment, two figures walked out of the building, one after the other.
A handsome young boy with short hair, light blue hair and eyes.
The other was small and thin, with black hair and blue eyes, and looked malnourished.
Needless to say, these two extraordinary individuals are respectively Saint Tang Wutong in her Wang Dong form and Huo Yuhao in his untamed form.
After enjoying a scene where a haughty young lady was thoroughly taught a lesson by a poor boy, Lin Feng left satisfied.
The path to becoming stronger sometimes requires a little adjustment.
However, he had no intention of having any in-depth exchanges with these two. If they caught Tang San's eye and became part of his grand plan, that would be terrible.
Back in his dormitory, Lin Feng tidied up and then began to study his bloodstain.
Now that the Gale Sword Martial Soul has been fully enhanced, he wants to see what will happen if he continues to enhance it.
[Wind Sword: The emerald longsword of the "Wind Masters," survivors of an ancient sect destroyed by the wind calamity. They are the oldest adaptants to the wind calamity, and their thick, broad blade has given rise to unique swordsmanship. Evolvable branches: 3]
[Special Feature: Grandfather]
[Weapon: Storm Sword]
[Mechanical Weapon: Cosmic Alloy Battle Sword]
Looking at the other two bizarre branches given, Lin Feng felt helpless. This blood seal was good in every way, but sometimes it was too abstract.
As expected, these special weapons and mechanical weapons require hundreds of years of effort to evolve, while the Storm Sword only needs two years.
However, this time we also need a material called the Core of Gale.
It seems that evolution is not possible in the short term, so Jiang Ze decided to ask his aunt Lin Shenglan to help him find one when he has time.
So he set his sights on spirit rings.
Lin Feng's first spirit ring was not ideal.
Due to the constant warfare near the Mingdou Mountains, the powerful soul beasts had long been wiped out by the Sun Moon and Star Luo kingdoms.
Lin Xiaotian went to great lengths, but he only managed to catch a 400-year-old Gale Demon Wolf.
The first soul skill you acquire is called Gale, which can increase speed by 20%.
With a thought, information about the enhancement of the spirit rings appeared before his eyes.
[400-Year Gale Wolf Soul Ring: Upgradeable Branches: 1, 800-Year Wind God Wolf Soul Ring, Upgrade Time: 120 days]
With only four months of time and effort required, which wasn't a long time, Lin Feng chose to enhance his abilities without hesitation.
After finishing all that, Lin Feng calmed his mind and began his cultivation for the day. It must be said that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at Shrek Academy was several times richer than that of Qingyang City.
Lin Feng estimated that after the spirit rings were fully enhanced, he should be able to level up again. This trip to Shrek Academy was worthwhile.
