He's Just a Mud-legged Man Who Only Knows Austere Cultivation...

He was nothing more than a mud-legged peasant who only knew how to train bitterly... Zhang Ming, who had been staring with full concentration at the movements of Lin Tian's hands, immediately thought, This is bad.

This was already Lin Tian's most crucial moment.

That voice just now had definitely affected Lin Tian.

Perhaps that single voice might directly cause Lin Tian's attempt to break through the threshold to fail.

But in the next instant—

Bang, bang, bang!!

Three consecutive thunderous reports rang out directly as Lin Tian swung his fists.

The moment they heard that sound...

Zhang Ming and the surrounding people were all stunned.

Even those disciples of the Outer Academy knew what that sound represented.

A thunderous impact of this degree...

It was fundamentally different from the sounds they produced!!

If that sound meant this much to the Outer Academy disciples...

Then for those Inner Academy disciples, there was even less need to say it.

Bright Force! He had done it!!

"Wh... what?? This stubborn mule... ah... no, no... Senior Brother Lin Tian actually broke through to Bright Force??!"

Zhang Ming also quickly reacted.

With an incomparably sincere smile on his face, he said, "Congratulations, Junior Brother Lin. Your bitter effort never ceased, and Bright Force has finally been achieved!"

Listening to Zhang Ming's voice before him...

Lin Tian immediately bowed and cupped his fists in return. "Many thanks for Senior Brother's praise."

And in the next instant...

The surrounding Outer Academy disciples also quickly recovered from their shock.

Then, one after another, they rather flusteredly saluted Lin Tian and offered their thanks.

Their tones were filled with urgent praise, as well as panic that had yet to fade!

After all, they had not forgotten what they had done back when Lin Tian had practiced his punches alone.

And they knew even more clearly...

Now that Lin Tian had broken through to Bright Force, just how great the gap between them would become!

That was Bright Force!!

The opening gate of the martial path.

As long as one broke through, it truly meant stepping onto the martial path.

Even if Lin Tian walked out of the outer sect right now...

He could become a figure of no small weight among certain powers!

The treatment he would enjoy...

Was simply not something people like them, who had yet to break through to Bright Force, could imagine.

For example, the local tyrant entrenched in their district now, the Shark Gang.

The other side's leader was only at the strength of Bright Force!

It could be said that from the moment Lin Tian broke through to Bright Force...

The first portion of his status had already leapt to an entirely different level!!

It would not even be excessive to call it turning his life around!

And off to the side...

When Zhou Ya saw this scene, her eyes were instantly filled with disbelief!!

This... how was this possible!

He was clearly only of Inferior Bone Quality, yet he could actually break through to Bright Force?

At this moment, even a trace of disbelief appeared in Zhou Ya's eyes.

As if the matter now appearing before her was something absurd and laughable.

Of course, as one of the possible future successors of the Lin Family...

She could naturally adjust her emotions extremely quickly.

After calming herself for a while...

She immediately looked toward Lin Tian again.

Although Lin Tian's breakthrough into Bright Force surprised her at that moment.

In her eyes, it was actually just so-so.

After all, he had taken two whole months just to break through into Bright Force.

That had practically exhausted all of his martial potential.

In the future, he would probably stop here.

If he wanted to climb any higher, it would be as hard as ascending to the heavens!

There was simply no need to hold any expectations for him anymore.

After all, he was nothing more than someone with Inferior Bone Quality.

And at that moment.

After seeing Lin Tian break through to Bright Force.

Cao Wei's face instantly turned deathly pale!

"Bright... Bright Force!? He actually really broke through to Bright Force?!!"

At that moment, Cao Wei only felt as if a massive boulder were pressing down on his chest.

A feeling of being unable to breathe kept roaming through his body!!

Even the strength in his entire body was drained by half in that instant.

All the things he had once done to suppress Lin Tian.

Flashed continuously before his eyes like a revolving lantern.

Beside him, an Outer Academy disciple standing at his side had both legs trembling nonstop.

That was right—he was the one who had shouted just now, gathering everyone to come and watch Lin Tian's breakthrough.

At that moment, his face had also turned as deathly pale as Cao Wei's.

He knew very well just what his actions had meant.

To put it lightly, he had been interfering with another person's breakthrough.

To put it more seriously, he had been destroying another person's Dao path.

This was a grudge that would not end until one side died!!

In other words, at that moment, he had thoroughly offended a Bright Force martial artist!!?

Although he had still hesitated a little when he was doing that earlier.

The moment he thought that Lin Tian merely had Inferior Bone Quality, and that breaking through to Bright Force was practically a foolish dream.

He had felt no pressure at all then.

But now... he... his pressure... seemed... seemed a little too great???!!

At that moment, he could even feel his heart gradually turning ice-cold.

When Lin Tian faced the apologies and thanks of the disciples.

He mostly responded with a nod.

After all, he had said before that he did not care about those so-called discussions.

Of course, aside from nodding, he did not even show the slightest expression.

After all, not caring did not mean he enjoyed being treated that way.

And after responding with a few nods.

Lin Tian immediately turned his gaze toward Cao Wei, whose face was pale off to the side.

Almost instinctively, Cao Wei's legs also began to tremble.

"Senior Brother Lin... I... I..."

But before Cao Wei could finish speaking.

Lin Tian had already rushed straight out, then threw a punch, smashing it viciously into Cao Wei's body.

Bang!!

A powerful burst of Bright Force erupted with a boom.

However, Lin Tian was holding back at that moment.

If Cao Wei really died here, Lin Tian would definitely not have an easy time either.

At the very least, after this punch, Cao Wei could forget about getting out of bed to practice martial arts for the next few months.

A dull thud immediately rang out.

Cao Wei was sent flying straight backward and smashed hard into the ground.

A mouthful of blood immediately sprayed from his mouth.

Then, because of the pain, he passed out.

Looking at this scene...

Although most people were a little confused, quite a few among them began explaining what Cao Wei had done just now.

Although everyone's gazes had been focused on Lin Tian moments ago, so they had not seen what Cao Wei had done, it was not as if no one had seen it.

For example, the few Outer Academy disciples closest to Cao Wei.

And as those people explained, the originally somewhat shocked looks everyone gave Cao Wei immediately gained a trace of disgust.

After all, that was disturbing someone else's breakthrough.

No matter when something like this happened, it was the vilest kind of behavior.

It would make one rejected by everyone and severely punished!

After all, if Cao Wei could interfere with someone else today, then tomorrow he might interfere with them!!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Ming, standing to the side, had not the slightest emotion in his eyes.

After all, he had also seen what Cao Wei had done just now.

As for what Lin Tian had done at this moment, he would naturally explain it to his master as well.

He believed that for something like this, his master naturally could not possibly punish Lin Tian because of it.
