Guidance

In City No. 003, Silvia had just gotten dressed. Her cheeks were still slightly flushed as she looked at Wang Cheng and smiled. "Mr. Wang, you must be a very powerful War God. I'll never forget what just happened!"

"Who knew you'd figure out I was a powerful War God from something like that?" Wang Cheng said, at a loss for words. Still, as he looked at Silvia, he couldn't help but marvel.

When she'd been a mess earlier, aside from her good figure, there hadn't been much to notice.

But now that she'd washed up, everything was different.

Her delicate features, smooth hair, and dewy skin—in short, Wang Cheng was very satisfied!

"Can you tell me your real name now?" Silvia suddenly asked.

"Do you think I gave you a fake name?" Wang Cheng asked, puzzled.

"I've never heard of a powerful War God in Huaxia Country named Wang Cheng!" Silvia said with a smile.

"Then you're just poorly informed," Wang Cheng said coolly.

"You're really not straightforward!" Silvia still thought he wasn't telling the truth, but she didn't press him.

"I have to go back. At least give me a way to contact you, okay?" Silvia suddenly asked.

"Not worried I'll lie to you anymore?" Wang Cheng said with a smile.

"Suit yourself!" Silvia glanced at him and said no more.

"..."

Wang Cheng said nothing more. Smiling, he gave Silvia his contact information, and she gave him hers in return.

A little while later, Silvia finished packing her things.

"I'll miss you!" She hugged Wang Cheng and whispered in his ear, then left the building without hesitation.

"Maybe I'll miss you too." Wang Cheng watched Silvia leave, but felt little stir within him.

She'd only been trying to repay him, and although her way of doing it had been a little unusual, it wasn't hard to understand. After all, everyone had their own way of thinking.

"Time to cultivate!" Wang Cheng quietly calmed himself down. Honestly, his current strength was enough to let him do whatever he wanted on Earth, but he hadn't lost his senses. He still knew right from wrong!

Better to keep cultivating.

Silvia's visit had stirred up some feelings in Wang Cheng, but it had only been a minor diversion. He quickly put it behind him.

As he focused on cultivation, several days passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, Wang Cheng's Clone, who had stayed behind at home in Mingyue Community, was having a great time playing a brand-new game console. Just then, Luo Feng came to visit.

"Brother Wang!"

Luo Feng greeted him, but when he saw Wang Cheng playing a game, his expression turned a little odd.

"Oh, it's you, Luo Feng. Uncle Luo said you've been locking yourself in the Training Room all day lately. What brings you over today?" Wang Cheng set down the console and asked with a smile.

"Brother Wang, you know I bought the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade," Luo Feng said seriously.

"I'm heading to the Wilderness Area at the end of this month. I want to get as strong as I can before I go. I've been studying the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, which is why I've been holed up in the Training Room. But I've been at it for days and still haven't made any progress."

"That's normal. The Nine Heavens Thunder Blade isn't easy to master." Wang Cheng nodded. He understood why Luo Feng had come. He'd told Luo Feng before that he'd practiced the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, and he'd even easily beaten Zhang Zehu, who was stronger and faster than he was.

In that situation, there was only one reason Luo Feng would come to see him: he wanted some guidance.

"Come with me." Wang Cheng got up and headed for the Training Room.

His Clone was just playing games at home anyway. Taking a little time to teach a disciple was no trouble at all!

"Brother Wang?"

Luo Feng was initially a little confused, but as soon as he saw Wang Cheng heading for the Training Room, he understood.

He hurried after him. He'd come to visit Wang Cheng today hoping to ask for guidance, so there was no reason to hesitate now.

At the same time, Luo Feng couldn't help admiring Wang Cheng's generosity. Wang Cheng had helped him deal with Zhang Zehu before, and now he was just as willing to help him with his saber technique.

Soon, the two of them reached the Training Room. Wang Cheng tossed Luo Feng a shield and picked up a Blood Shadow Battle Saber.

"Luo Feng, Hall Master Wu said your physical fitness is now on par with an Intermediate Warrior's. Is that right?" Wang Cheng asked.

"Yes!" Luo Feng immediately nodded.

"Good. I'm going to attack you now. Your job is to block as much of it as you can," Wang Cheng said.

"Understood!"

Luo Feng nodded. Although he was a little confused, he raised his shield.

"Watch out!"

Wang Cheng took a step forward and swung his saber.

His first strike wasn't very fast. Luo Feng's eyes lit up, and he raised his shield to block it.

Clang!

The saber collided with the shield. Luo Feng felt a slight jolt, but easily held his ground.

Before he could relax, however, a second force surged out. Caught off guard, Luo Feng was sent staggering back several steps.

"The Nine Heavens Thunder Blade?" Luo Feng's eyes lit up. The second force had erupted slowly enough for him to feel it clearly.

"You felt that, right? That's the first level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade: two bursts of force," Wang Cheng said with a smile. "Of course, in a real fight, the second burst has to come quickly and stack directly on top of the first. Otherwise, there's no point to it."

"I understand!"

Luo Feng nodded seriously.

"I'm going to speed up now. Get ready!" Wang Cheng warned him, then raised his saber and swung again.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Wang Cheng swung again and again, each strike a slowed-down version of the first level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. Luo Feng kept taking the blows, but he was incredibly excited. As he felt Wang Cheng's force with each strike, many of his questions about practicing the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade gradually became clear.

Luo Feng didn't yet know that the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade was a secret technique designed to rapidly stack bursts of force and increase its power. Most people who practiced it found it difficult to slow down the release of their strength.

Only someone like Wang Cheng, who had easily mastered the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade, could do it so effortlessly.

They continued for half an hour. When Wang Cheng felt they'd done enough, he stopped.

"How did it feel?" Wang Cheng asked.

"I learned a lot!"

A smile appeared on Luo Feng's face before he could stop it. "I really appreciate your help, Brother Wang!"

"It was nothing," Wang Cheng said with a smile. "If you still haven't got it, come back again. I'm free, so giving you some pointers is no trouble."

"Brother Wang, won't I be bothering you too much?" Luo Feng scratched his head. Of course he wanted to come back, but he felt bad about constantly imposing on Wang Cheng.

"We're neighbors. No need to be so polite!" Wang Cheng patted Luo Feng on the shoulder. "If you want to thank me, just ask Aunt Gong to invite me over for a couple more meals. That's no trouble, right?"

"Of course not!" Luo Feng immediately nodded. "Brother Wang, my head's full of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade now. I'll head back first!"

"Go ahead," Wang Cheng said with a smile.

"Okay!"

"..."

After Luo Feng left, Wang Cheng picked up the game console again and got back to playing.

Wang Cheng figured that his cultivation wouldn't suffer just because this one Clone wasn't training. Besides, he needed a little entertainment, so he'd never had the Clone he left at home cultivate.

He had to admit, Earth's technology was far more advanced than it had been before he transmigrated. Even the struggling gaming industry was much better than it had been back then.

Of course, Wang Cheng knew that the truly fun games were in the Virtual Universe. Unfortunately, he couldn't get an account to log into the Virtual Universe right now, so he had to make do with Earth's games.

Time passed slowly. Wang Cheng's days remained peaceful, and his strength continued to grow steadily.

Luo Feng came to ask Wang Cheng for guidance several more times. Finally, after more than twenty days, he learned the first level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade.

The first level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade could amplify strength by 1.4 times. That wasn't much in Wang Cheng's eyes, but Luo Feng was still weak, and learning this technique gave his strength a considerable boost.

However, Luo Feng had no time to continue studying the second level of the Nine Heavens Thunder Blade. Nearly a month after becoming an Official Warrior, the team he'd joined was finally heading into the Wilderness Area!
