Elder Han's Favor, Third-level Training Ground!

A moment later.

A group of Demon Suppression Guards left reluctantly.

Lin Feng, meanwhile, led Lin Qingxue into their new courtyard.

A Squad Leader's courtyard was more than ten times as spacious as those of ordinary Constables.

It also received excellent sunlight, without a trace of gloom.

Lin Qingxue was quite delighted upon entering. This place was far better than where they had lived North of the City.

At this moment, Lin Feng inspected the Brocade Boxes those people had just presented.

Every single box contained Body Tempering Pills!

Lin Feng was currently only at the Body Tempering Seventh Level.

He was still quite a distance away from Houtian.

Whenever he thought of the Black Lotus Cult causing trouble within the city, Lin Feng's heart tightened slightly.

Lü Anyang had said before that if the Black Lotus Cult stirred up trouble, the Demon Suppression Division would have to step in.

And now that he had become a Squad Leader, there was no telling when he might cross paths with the Black Lotus Cult!

Who knew how powerful such a bizarre and unfathomable evil cult truly was?

For it to remain active in Nanyang Commandery for so long, it surely had Xiantian Masters holding the fort.

As for Houtian experts, there would be even more of them!

Besides the Black Lotus Cult, Captain Zhao was also a threat.

Lin Feng's realm was still too low. He needed to advance quickly!

After counting them, he determined the number of Body Tempering Pills sent by those Demon Suppression Guards.

There were seventy-eight Body Tempering Pills in total.

To advance from the Body Tempering Seventh Level to the Eighth Level of Body Tempering, he would need at least three hundred Body Tempering Pills.

But being able to gather one-third of them already was quite good!

Just then.

A knock suddenly sounded at the door.

Lin Feng walked over and opened it.

He found a Demon Suppression Guard outside. The guard said, "Squad Leader Lin, someone from Black Tiger Martial Arts School is looking for you outside the Demon Suppression Division."

Black Tiger Martial Arts School!

Lin Feng's thoughts stirred, and he knew why they had come.

He had agreed to become a Guest Elder of Black Tiger Martial Arts School, so there would naturally be generous compensation.

Lin Feng arrived outside the gates of the Demon Suppression Division.

Vice Head of Black Tiger Martial Arts School Lü Anyang was standing there, waiting for Lin Feng.

"Little Brother Lin, we meet again."

Lü Anyang revealed a faint smile, then offered up a Brocade Box. "Inside are thirty True Qi Pills and twenty First-order spirit medicines!"

"Little Brother Lin, you're currently at the Body Tempering Seventh Level, right? With so many spirit medicines, it should be enough to help you enter the Eighth Level of Body Tempering."

Lin Feng accepted the Brocade Box and nodded solemnly. "Thank you."

Lü Anyang then waved his hand. "The stronger you become, Little Brother Lin, the more Black Tiger Martial Arts School benefits. I still have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave."

After delivering the resources to Lin Feng, Lü Anyang departed directly.

Lin Feng did not waste any time either and returned to the Demon Suppression Division.

Of course, he did not return home right away.

Lin Feng still had 200 Merit Points to his name, and these Merit Points could also be exchanged for Body Tempering Pills!

After arriving at the Resource Repository, Lin Feng exchanged 200 Merit Points for ten Body Tempering Pills.

Then he returned straight to his courtyard.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng looked at his younger sister, Lin Qingxue.

"Qingxue, I'm going to cultivate next. Stay here and rest quietly."

"Alright." Lin Qingxue nodded obediently. She was very sensible and would never cause trouble for Lin Feng or make him worry.

Seeing how sensible Lin Qingxue was, Lin Feng felt comforted.

Then he left and headed for the Scripture Pavilion!

He had far too many things that needed cultivation.

The Third-grade Martial Art, Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm, along with all these cultivation resources—the Body Tempering Pills and twenty First-order spirit medicines.

Once he consumed them all, it would not be long before he reached the Eighth Level of Body Tempering!

Although Lin Feng's strength had grown considerably compared to his first day joining the Demon Suppression Division, it was still somewhat insufficient to deal with the current situation!

The most pressing concern was none other than Captain Zhao.

During the assessment, Lin Feng had clearly sensed it.

Captain Zhao's gaze toward him carried a faint hostility!

Clearly, the other party had likely already learned of his identity.

However, Captain Zhao probably did not yet know of Lu Gang's death.

If he did, he would likely move even faster to deal with him!

Among the Three Captains, Captain Zhao was the strongest.

Lin Feng had previously asked around among several Squad Leaders. Captain Zhao's strength might already be nearing Xiantian!

Lin Feng's current strength could be considered among the more formidable beneath the captains within Wancheng City's Demon Suppression Division.

Yet compared to Captain Zhao, the gap was still considerable.

He had to hasten his advancement in cultivation if he wanted even a sliver of ability to respond.

Before long, Lin Feng arrived at the Scripture Pavilion.

After explaining his purpose to the One-armed Elder, the One-armed Elder pointed upstairs for Lin Feng.

"You don't need any external aids to cultivate the Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm."

"However, cultivating a Third-grade Martial Art is extremely difficult. You need to calm your mind, focus your spirit, and devote yourself wholeheartedly before you can even get started."

"Go to the third floor, to the second Training Ground on the left! It is usually reserved for the captains' cultivation. It's very quiet there."

Lin Feng was slightly surprised upon hearing this.

He said respectfully, "Thank you, Elder Han."

From Captain Chen, he had learned that the One-armed Elder's surname was Han.

Lin Feng then headed for the third floor.

The third floor was open only to captains and a scant few others.

Yet now, the One-armed Elder had allowed him to cultivate there.

This degree of regard clearly surpassed that shown to many others.

Watching Lin Feng's departing back, Elder Han, the One-armed Elder, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Little fellow, grow quickly."

The traces of the Black Lotus Cult have appeared within the city. Wancheng City is likely headed for troubled times, the One-armed Elder thought inwardly.

Inside the third-floor Training Ground, as soon as Lin Feng entered, a vast expanse opened before his eyes.

The moment he stepped inside, Lin Feng sensed that the Training Ground was brimming with True Qi.

As a cultivation ground meant for captain-level figures, the True Qi contained within was exceptionally dense.

Even without cultivating, merely sitting here would make cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.

Lin Feng calmed his mind.

He took out all his cultivation resources.

The main ones were the twenty First-order spirit medicines given to him by the Black Tiger Martial Arts School.

They were crucial for his advancement to the Eighth Level of Body Tempering.

There were also some scattered Body Tempering Pills, which would serve as supplementary aid.

Lin Feng did not hesitate.

Light burst from his eyes as he looked at those spirit medicines.

He grabbed them and swallowed them all in one mouthful.

The instant they entered his mouth, Lin Feng felt a vast force of blood and vitality coursing through and scouring his flesh!

Immediately afterward, he entered a state of cultivation...

Who knew how much time passed.

Lin Feng cultivated without pause.

Only after exhausting every spirit medicine and Body Tempering Pill did Lin Feng finally open his eyes.

A vast, surging power radiated from all around Lin Feng's body.

Feeling the aura within him grow stronger, Lin Feng's tiger-like eyes brimmed with a trace of confidence.

"I'm already at the Eighth Level of Body Tempering. The Houtian Realm is close at hand," Lin Feng thought.

A realm was a realm, but Lin Feng's current combat strength went far beyond that.

After Iron Shirt reached lv5, the boost it gave Lin Feng was utterly terrifying.

Those so-called Houtian Realm experts at the first or second level, if they did not wield weapons, would find it exceedingly difficult

to injure him!

After advancing his realm, Lin Feng pulled that Third-grade Martial Art, Bone Corroding Seven Kill Palm, from his robes!
