046
Xu Yunfeng had never dreamed of this.
He had only come to stay in the hospital, yet he had stumbled across such a diamond in the rough.
The boy's vitality and spirit were perfectly contained, returned to their purest, most natural state.
He practically had an innate Psychic Master Sacred Body!
If properly polished...
Perhaps he would not become a Transcendent.
But reaching ten thousand Spirit Power and becoming an Advanced Mentalist would be a piece of cake.
As for the possibility that the boy was already a Psychic Master...
That was even more impossible.
Xu Yunfeng was an Intermediate Mentalist with over two thousand Spirit Power!
If the boy were a Psychic Master, he would definitely have sensed his Spirit Power.
After all, although the person before him wore a baseball cap and a mask that concealed his face...
There was no hiding his youthful air.
How could someone so young have more Spirit Power than him?
"Well?"
Seeing the boy hesitate, Xu Yunfeng could not help asking again.
Jiang Fu had already stood up.
He gave himself a long, vigorous stretch.
"Maybe another time."
Without looking back, he headed toward the hospital gates.
"Hey... young man, don't go!"
"I really am not a bad guy, much less a con artist!"
Xu Yunfeng looked like a hyperactive monkey.
He followed Jiang Fu, bouncing around and chattering nonstop.
The commotion soon drew other people's attention.
Jiang Fu felt a headache coming on.
With so many people watching, he could hardly beat the guy up.
Forget it.
If I can't fight him, I can still dodge him.
Then he abruptly accelerated.
In an instant, he vanished without a trace.
"Holy shit, he's fast!"
Xu Yunfeng jumped in fright.
"That speed already surpasses plenty of Intermediate Martial Artists!"
"No wonder he wouldn't become my disciple..."
"Hmph! But how could a crude Martial Artist compare to a noble Psychic Master?"
"Although I didn't see your real face, I've memorized your build and bearing!"
"The next time we meet, I'll definitely..."
Just then...
A figure charged over like a gale.
In an instant, he was right in front of Xu Yunfeng.
"Where's the expert? Xu Yunfeng, what did you do with my expert?"
Zhang Chong grabbed Xu Yunfeng by the collar.
He roared until his voice was nearly hoarse.
Xu Yunfeng grew irritated.
He brushed Zhang Chong's hand aside and snapped, "Zhang Chong, what's gotten into you now?"
"What expert? If there's an expert here, it's me!"
Zhang Chong gritted his teeth. "That guy in the baseball cap just now was the Psychic Master who instantly killed the Blue Ringed Octopus yesterday!"
"I didn't even get to say a fucking word to him before you scared him off!"
Xu Yunfeng froze.
"What did you say?"
"That young man just now was the Psychic Master who instantly killed the Blue Ringed Octopus yesterday?"
"But... but I couldn't sense any Spirit Power from him at all..."
Zhang Chong snorted. "Would he be such an expert if you could sense his Spirit Power?"
Xu Yunfeng shuddered.
At that moment...
As he recalled his own endless babbling just now...
He wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.
I'm just an Intermediate Mentalist with a little over two thousand Spirit Power, and I actually dreamed of taking that expert as my disciple!
"Did I offend him?"
Zhang Chong patted Xu Yunfeng on the shoulder. "Relax. He isn't that petty."
Yesterday at the supermarket, the expert had even remembered to pay for his purchases before leaving.
...He had even paid for the cap and mask.
"By the way, how's your recovery coming along?"
"The day after tomorrow is Ninth High School's Hundred-Day Oath Ceremony for the College Entrance Examination."
At the mention of the Hundred-Day Oath Ceremony...
Xu Yunfeng composed himself. "I'm almost fully recovered."
"Don't worry. I'll definitely be there!"
As he spoke...
A vicious glint flashed in Xu Yunfeng's eyes.
"I heard someone squeezed my good-for-nothing younger brother out of Ninth High School..."
Zhang Chong's expression changed, and he hastily said, "You can't go causing trouble!"
Xu Yunfeng shrugged.
He gave no definite answer.
Jiang Fu stopped by the supermarket on his way home.
Only after buying some ingredients did he return to the villa.
Looking at the empty villa...
Jiang Fu stood there in a brief daze.
It was still early.
Shi Jiu was out, too.
He was not in the mood to cook.
Jiang Fu casually unwrapped an Energy Pill and popped it into his mouth.
Then he brought a basin of water from the bathroom and set it beside the sofa.
He also took out his beloved little Fishing Rod.
"Since Fishing Fanatic belongs to the concept system..."
"There shouldn't be any difference between fishing in a pool and fishing in a basin."
"Divine Sequence: Fishing Fanatic, multiply quantity by ten, lasting ten hours."
"Good luck multiplied by ten, lasting ten hours."
The next moment...
Inside his mind...
The original single Divine Sequence instantly became ten Divine Sequences.
One Divine Sequence lasted an hour.
Ten Divine Sequences made exactly ten hours.
Not a single one would go to waste.
The instant the Fishing Rod dropped into the basin...
The first Divine Sequence began its countdown.
As for the grades of the items he fished up...
There would still be time to multiply those by ten after catching them.
Right now, Jiang Fu had a Qi-Blood Value of 70 and Spirit Power of 1,005.
He was a complete and utter small fry.
If he really caught some impossibly high-grade item...
He would have no use for it yet, other than putting it away as a collectible.
Take Flying Sword Qie Man, for example.
Yellow-tier upper grade.
Neither too high nor too low, just right for him to use.
"Time to cultivate."
"Comprehension multiplied by ten, lasting ten hours."
"Understanding ability multiplied by ten, lasting ten hours."
"Cultivation speed multiplied by ten, lasting ten hours!"
The next moment...
Jiang Fu closed his eyes and began cultivating the Star Gazing Chart on a Rainy Night.
Fishing and cultivating, neither getting in the way of the other.
The items he fished up...
Would automatically land on the living room carpet beside him.
[Ding!] [Item obtained: fire flame crystal] [Category: resource] [Grade: 6 (Profound-tier Upper Grade)]
[Ding!] [Item obtained: Cloud Patterned Gloves] [Category: weapon] [Grade: 12 (High-grade Heavenly Rank)]
[Ding!] [Item obtained: Invisibility Talisman] [Category: support talisman] [Grade: 10 (low-grade heavenly rank)]
[Item obtained: Eight Treasures Purple Gold Spear] [Category: weapon] [Grade: 5 (profound-tier middle grade)]
Time...
Slipped by, little by little.
The sun slowly set.
At six in the evening...
Jiang Fu stirred his Spirit Power ever so slightly.
[Cooking skill multiply by ten, duration: until this meal is finished.] [For the food cooked, deliciousness multiply by ten!]
The next instant...
All the cooking utensils in the kitchen began moving under the influence of his Spirit Power.
Another hour passed.
It was now seven.
The door to the villa's living room was gently pushed open.
"I'm back!"
Jiang Fu looked up at the girl, who had already changed into those fluffy Panda Slippers.
Shi Jiu stepped inside with a spring in her step.
She casually tossed something golden to Jiang Fu.
Jiang Fu caught it, momentarily stunned. "This is..."
"A Storage Badge."
"The one I have is a keepsake my maternal grandmother left me..."
"Yeah, so I found you a new one..."
As she spoke,
Shi Jiu sat down beside Jiang Fu.
Then
she froze too.
All around Jiang Fu lay a dazzling array of treasures. "Wh-what are all these...?"
Jiang Fu set down his Fishing Rod.
He turned the Storage Badge over in his hands, unable to put it down.
At Shi Jiu's question, he smiled and explained, "I fished them all up."
"Take whatever you like."
Shi Jiu: "..."
As he spoke,
he sent his Spirit Power into the Storage Badge.
This time, there was no password.
Inside was the same vast space, twenty meters long, wide, and high.
And within that space
sat a finely crafted Silver Shield,
one meter in diameter and half a meter wide.
"What's this?"
With a thought,
Jiang Fu took out the silver Shuttle-shaped Shield.
Shi Jiu snapped back to herself.
She looked at the treasures on the floor, still dazed.
"That's a Star Shuttle."
"It's a kind of Psychokinetic Weapon. It also counts as a flying weapon."
"The kind that can carry you through the air..."
