Jade Sword in Hand, Defying a Thousand Troops

Just as Xue Qinghe was about to speak with a smile, Chen Feng continued:

Curiosity is something everyone has.

"Brother Xue, aren't you curious about this?"

Xue Qinghe choked, and the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat.

He originally intended to use Chen Feng's curiosity as a basis to expose Chen Feng's identity.

But if Xue Qinghe said something like that again after Chen Feng asked that question, he would seem very naive.

Because Chen Feng is right, curiosity is something everyone has.

It's possible to become curious after witnessing such a strange phenomenon Cat Girl.

Although Xue Qinghe had no intention of exploring this strange phenomenon, he believed that most people in the world would not be either.

However, if he continues to use this as a basis to conclude that Chen Feng is Chen Feng, then it is clearly not convincing at all.

It will only make you a laughing stock.

Xue Qinghe took a deep breath, knowing that he probably wouldn't gain anything today.

But he was still unwilling to give up, so he asked:

"So, Xiao Feng, since you're so curious about this, have you thought about how to figure out this phenomenon?"

"That's a bit difficult for me. I'm still just a child, and I'm still in the stage of learning knowledge," Chen Feng said with an innocent look.

Seeing his appearance, Xue Qinghe gritted his teeth inwardly. He felt that this kid was slippery and slippery, and he couldn't find the slightest flaw in him.

Having no other option, he had to end the conversation. "Alright, then you should study hard and try to figure this out as soon as possible."

"Yes, I will." Chen Feng nodded.

He got up to get off the carriage, but suddenly seemed to remember something and asked:

"Brother Xue, I have a favor to ask."

"Oh?" Xue Qinghe's eyes lit up slightly. "There's no need for us to be so formal. Just say what you need to say."

He wasn't afraid of Chen Feng making demands, because demands would provide an opportunity to test him, and he might be able to use that to confirm Chen Feng's identity.

"Um, I want some of your blood, Brother Xue," Chen Feng said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Blood?" Xue Qinghe was taken aback. "How much do you need? What do you need it for?"

"Just a small bottle is enough. As for its use, it's not convenient to say right now, if you don't want to, Brother Xue."

"It's fine if you can't say. It's just a little blood. Have you prepared a container?" Xue Qinghe waved his hand and said.

"I've been preparing for this for a while." Chen Feng took out a small bottle from the Blood Sky Vault, which he had already added with a potion to prevent blood from clotting.

Chen Feng opened the bottle cap, Xue Qinghe twitched his nose slightly. He smelled a rather peculiar scent coming from the bottle.

But he said nothing, only took out a dagger and gently cut his wrist, letting the bright red blood flow into the bottle.

After the small bottle was filled, Xue Qinghe also took out a small bottle, opened it, and poured the powder inside onto the wound on his wrist.

The powder quickly stopped the bleeding from the wound.

"This medicine works quite well," Chen Feng said as he put away the small bottle.

"A royal special supply, do you need it?" Xue Qinghe asked.

"No need, my companion has healing abilities."

Xue Qinghe nodded. "I hope this blood will be of help to you."

"I think so, thank you, Brother Xue."

After collecting Qian Renxue's blood, Chen Feng looked at her current male appearance and thought for a moment before saying:

"Brother Xue, you've lost so much blood. You'll need to eat some blood-replenishing foods when you get back, like Red Dates and Longan."

Watching Chen Feng earnestly explaining blood-nourishing foods to him, Xue Qinghe's lips twitched slightly.

He wanted to say that he knew more about this than Chen Feng did, but in the end he didn't speak. Instead, he waited for Chen Feng to finish explaining before nodding with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to know about this. Don't worry, I'll eat the foods you mentioned."

"That's good, Brother Xue. We'll chat again next time. See you later."

See you later.

After Chen Feng left, an old man appeared silently inside the carriage.

"Young Master, Your Highness, your hand."

"It's a minor issue," Xue Qinghe said casually.

He watched Chen Feng's departing figure, thought for a moment, and said:

"I just smelled something. Go and find some herbs that smell similar."

"Yes."

Walking along the path in the Academy, Chen Feng wore a faint smile.

He was in a very good mood at the moment, for two reasons.

Firstly, there was hope that Yang Sword would awaken, something he had longed for for a long time.

Secondly, he successfully cast the fishing hook.

Qian Renxue had always wanted to test Chen Feng's identity, and he knew this.

However, he neither chose to confess directly nor completely dispel the other party's suspicions.

Instead, he used a Tai Chi Cloud Hands move to evade Qian Renxue's probing, and then revealed a perfectly timed opening.

This is called playing hard to get.

It's all about playing the "tug-of-war" game.

If Qian Renxue isn't clever enough to notice this flaw, it doesn't matter. They'll have many more opportunities to interact in the future, and Chen Feng will continue to reveal some seemingly plausible flaws little by little.

At first glance, he seems to be that genius Scholar.

But from another perspective, wait a minute, it doesn't seem like that.

This hazy, ambiguous feeling is incredibly alluring, Qian Renxue will definitely want to use these flaws to definitively prove Chen Feng's identity.

Once she truly confirms Chen Feng's identity, it will be like she has successfully solved a long-standing problem, bringing her a great sense of accomplishment.

At that point, Qian Renxue will most likely expose Chen Feng's identity to his face, then watch him show a surprised and astonished expression, and may even take some steps to win him over.

But this was all an opportunity that Chen Feng deliberately gave her. He seemed to be the prey, but in reality, he was the hunter.

After returning to the Academy, Chen Feng first settled He Yun and her daughter in.

His plan for the two was to enroll them in the Academy; his daughter could become a student directly, while He Yun became the dormitory supervisor for the girls.

The original Academy did not have dormitory supervisors, and students had to handle everything themselves, while some inspection work had to be done by teachers.

Even ten thousand years later, Shrek Academy still doesn't have dormitory supervisors. Someone like Mu En definitely doesn't count; he's at most just a gatekeeper.

Therefore, Chen Feng suggested that Flender add this position to make it easier to manage students in a standardized way, and Flender adopted this suggestion.

Chen Feng didn't rush to investigate the cause of Cat Girl's transformation, because Cat Girl must be quite sensitive and anxious right now due to what she's been through. It would be inappropriate to ask her to cooperate with any research at this time.

He planned to study the External Beast Martial Soul and the Cat Girl together after he awakened the Yin Sword and gained soul-related abilities.

Chen Feng sensed that the two seemed to share some commonalities.

By then, He Yun and her daughter should have settled down, and with a little more cooperation, they wouldn't resist so much.

After dealing with the Cat Girl's matter, it was already evening.

Instead of going straight back to his dormitory, Chen Feng first went to a secluded spot in the Academy Forest.

This was his first attempt at awakening the Yang Sword, and he didn't know what would happen, so he chose a sparsely populated place so that if anything happened, it wouldn't have a big impact.

He sat cross-legged under a tree, summoned his Chen Feng Martial Soul, placed the sword flat on his lap, and stuck a torch next to him for illumination.

Then, he took out a small bottle containing Qian Renxue's blood and first tried dripping a drop of blood onto the yang fish of the Tai Chi diagram on the Sword Guard.

The blood was quickly absorbed, just as it had been absorbed from the blood corresponding to other trigrams in the past.

Seeing this, Chen Feng felt relieved and began to drip more blood onto the Yang Fish.

Soon, the bottle of blood was completely absorbed, and Chen Feng also felt that his Martial Soul was undergoing some kind of change.

With a thought, he followed this feeling and activated his Martial Soul.

Then Chen Feng saw that, starting from the yang fish at the Sword Guard's edge, the white color rapidly spread to other areas.

In just a moment, the original Tai Chi Bagua Sword transformed into something else entirely.

At this moment, its entire body was dyed white, and the place that was originally Taiji Bagua Diagram turned into a ball of light radiating golden light.

The golden light was gentle and not dazzling, illuminating an area of two to three meters around it.

Chen Feng touched the ball of light and found that it had no physical form; it seemed to be nothing more than a simple ball of light.

He reached out and gently stroked the sword, discovering that the Tai Chi Bagua Sword, or rather the Yang Sword, was no longer made of metal, but had become as smooth as jade.

In other words, the Yang Sword is now a Jade Sword.

Chen Feng tapped the Yang Sword in his hand lightly with his fingers and muttered:

"Jade Sword. Does this mean I'm to wield Jade Sword and lead an army into battle?"

The change in the texture of his Martial Soul was somewhat unexpected, and it could potentially affect the strength of his Martial Soul. However, what he was truly concerned about was what the awakening of the Yang Sword would bring.

It's impossible that all they could produce was a flashlight for illumination, right? Even if it were meant to be a flashlight, its beam distance wouldn't be sufficient.

Chen Feng stood up and began using his three Soul Skill to see if his Martial Soul had changed after transforming into the Yang Sword.

First, there was the Art of Light and Heavy Sword, which was Chen Feng's forte and was no different from his technique before awakening.

Then came the second Soul Skill, Sharpness. After using this Soul Skill, the Yang Sword in Chen Feng's hand became even more lustrous, and its ability to slash at the surrounding trees remained unchanged compared to the past.

However, when Chen Feng replaced the test material with metal, he felt a slight stiffness.

Clearly, this change in texture has had some impact on Chen Feng's Martial Soul, at least making it a little duller.

Chen Feng also tested the strength of the Yang Sword's material. After colliding with stone and metal, no marks were left on the sword, indicating that the Jade Sword's strength was still acceptable.

However, he is not entirely sure where the real limit lies, and there are currently no good testing methods.

Having roughly determined the strength of the Yang Sword, Chen Feng used his Third Spirit Skill once more.

With a roar and flash of lightning, Chen Feng appeared at another location some distance away, his expression strange.

"It seems to be no different from before. Could it really just be a flashlight? And the sharpness has even decreased. This is really..."

Just as Chen Feng was starting to doubt his life and felt that all his expectations had been dashed, a dark figure silently appeared not far away.

"Who?" Chen Feng pointed his sword, only to find that the dark figure was Dark Soul Cat Xiao Hei.

Although Chen Feng named it Dawn, Chen Feng still preferred to call it Xiao Hei.

When Chen Feng saw that the visitor was Xiao Hei, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that the commotion he had made while testing his Martial Soul had attracted Xiao Hei.

At this moment, seemingly because of Chen Feng's earlier action of pointing his sword at Xiao Hei, the Soul Ring on his body suddenly moved and actually detached from his body.

Chen Feng was shocked and instinctively tried to retrieve his Soul Ring Soul Ring, which obediently returned to him.

Looking at the three Soul Ring around him that were moving slowly and normally, Chen Feng was momentarily stunned.

He asked Xiao Hei:

"Just now, didn't my Soul Ring fly towards you?"

"Meow." Xiao Hei nodded and walked over to look curiously at the Soul Ring on Chen Feng's body.

It had never seen anything like this before. Could it be that this human had learned some new ability?

Chen Feng looked at his Soul Ring and thought for a moment, then took a few steps back and pointed his jade Jade Sword at Xiao Hei again.

He felt that this must be the power brought by the Yang Sword. Although there was a possibility that the Soul Ring could not be returned once they were gone, he still planned to give it a try.

After all, the Yang Sword, which he had been longing to awaken for so long, couldn't really be used as a flashlight.

As Chen Feng pointed his sword at Xiao Hei and focused his attention on it, his three Soul Ring flew towards Xiao Hei.

"Three is a bit too many." Chen Feng tried to retract two of them, releasing only his First Spirit Ring.

Even if he really can't get the Soul Ring back, he won't lose too much.

A yellow Soul Ring flew from Chen Feng to Xiao Hei and was then placed on its body.

Looking at the Soul Ring that had appeared on its body, Xiao Hei tried taking two steps to the side, and the Soul Ring moved with it as if it had always been there.

It looked at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression. Chen Feng understood and shook his head, saying:

I didn't have control over it.

Xiao Hei looked at the Yellow Soul Ring on its body again. It was a wonderful feeling it had never experienced before, and it felt very novel to it.

Chen Feng then suggested:

"Why don't you try to activate it?"

Now that the Soul Ring has been transferred to Xiao Hei Xiao Hei, he might be able to use Soul Ring.

However, Xiao Hei looked completely bewildered by Chen Feng's suggestion, clearly having never used Soul Ring before as a Soul Beast.

Fortunately, with Chen Feng's guidance, it finally managed to grasp the knack.

As Xiao Hei attempted to activate its Soul Ring, the Yellow Soul Ring on its body immediately lit up, and Xiao Hei's body visibly sank.

Seeing this, Chen Feng finally understood.

"Am I now Support System Spirit Master? But this support method seems a bit weird."

When a normal Support System Spirit Master is providing assistance, why would they throw their Soul Ring out to someone else, let alone lend their Soul Skill to another person?

The reason it's called a loan is because Chen Feng sensed that he could still get the Soul Ring back; it wasn't a permanent gift.

Even more bizarrely, the Soul Beast could also use the Soul Ring he provided.

Xiao Hei might be the first Soul Beast in the world to possess and use Soul Skill at the soul Soul Beast stage. If someone were to see this, it would definitely shock many people.

But no matter how unorthodox this method may be, the fact remains that Xiao Hei can now use Chen Feng's Soul Skill.

It felt exceptionally excited, darting around among the surrounding trees, wantonly tormenting the poor trees, and experiencing the wonderful sensation brought about by the Soul Skill enhancement.

Branches and leaves kept falling from the tree; those were all Xiao Hei's handiwork.

Some branches flew towards Chen Feng. Although they didn't hurt when they hit him, Chen Feng still instinctively tried to block them.

However, before he could make a move, the flying branch fell to the ground at the edge of the light emitted by the Yang Sword, as if it had hit an invisible wall.

Seeing this, Chen Feng turned his gaze to the area of light surrounding him, and a possibility suddenly occurred to him.
