Unexpected Breakthrough
"How are you? Can you move now?"
It was unclear how long Xiao Lin had been resting on the ground when Mang Tianchi's voice finally came through.
"Hmm~"
Feeling sore all over, Xiao Lin managed to stand up after recovering some of his Dou Qi.
"Walking a few steps should be fine."
Xiao Lin said, looking exhausted.
As he finished speaking, Mang Tianchi smiled and walked to his side, circling around him once.
"Slap slap"
"Hmm, looks like you're in good health!"
Seeing that Xiao Lin could move again, Mang Tianchi couldn't help but pat him twice.
"Bang"
However, the next second, Xiao Lin was lying on the ground again.
Mang Tianchi:".
"Dean, are you trying to murder me?"
Lying on the ground, Xiao Lin spoke with a resentful expression.
"Haha, my mistake, my mistake! I didn't expect you to be so frail!"
After laughing twice to cover his embarrassment, Mang Tianchi couldn't help but say...
However, the further he spoke, the lower his voice became.
Clearly, he was somewhat guilty.
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes at this.
You were just saying you were in good health, and now you're suddenly all frail and weak?
Sure enough, you're the dean, whatever you say is right!
Xiao Lin silently complained to himself.
In the end, it was Mang Tianchi who personally carried the weakened Xiao Lin back to the Jia Nan Academy.
After returning to the Jia Nan Academy, it took Xiao Lin three days to fully recover.
Of course, the main reason he recovered so quickly was because he had only exhausted his Dou Qi and had not suffered any injuries.
Mang Tianchi was merely instructing Xiao Lin; naturally, he wouldn't use any ruthless methods.
After recovering, Xiao Lin began to slowly digest the gains from this battle.
First, Xiao Lin has already realized that the development of Astral Dou Qi is insufficient.
Secondly, the application of Soul Power was too crude.
Xiao Lin had already decided that once he arrived in Central Plains, he would find two soul-related Dou Technique no matter what.
After all, the Central Plains are not like the Northwest Continent.
The experts here are far superior to those in the Northwest Continent.
Of course, his advantage in terms of his soul is actually not that great.
This can be seen from the fact that his Soul Power, at the Mid-Heavenly Realm, was unable to break through the soul defense of the peak of the Mang Tianchi Spirit Realm Peak.
Furthermore, Xiao Lin felt that he needed to develop more and stronger Dou Technique.
Of course, going to look for it is also an option.
However, he can forget about Star Dou Technique, as he can only develop and create them himself. But Earth Attribute Dou Technique don't have this limitation.
These are the three points that Xiao Lin summarized after his battle with Mang Tianchi.
Just after Xiao Lin finished summarizing what he had learned in this battle, he suddenly discovered another pleasant surprise!
"Huh, I feel like I'm about to break through again! Wow, it's been so fast. It seems like only a year and a half since my last breakthrough?"
Feeling the changes within himself, Xiao Lin could not hide the joy on his face.
"Is it because you used up all your battle Dou Qi in one go?"
Xiao Lin couldn't help but guess.
This was the first time Xiao Lin had completely exhausted his fighting Dou Qi!
Therefore, it was only after he recovered that he felt a breakthrough.
However, this kind of behavior is not encouraged.
After all, when a person's Dou Qi is exhausted, that's when they're in the most danger!
If you encounter any accident, you might die before you've even recovered.
If that's the case, what's the point of having a feeling of breakthrough?
Therefore, very few people would use this method to pressure themselves.
First, it's unsafe; second, it's not 100% safe!
Xiao Lin's battle with Mang Tianchi was the only reason he exhausted all his Dou Qi.
If it were a different opponent, I guarantee he wouldn't do that!
Unless it comes down to risking everything.
But given Xiao Lin's personality, getting him to risk his life is practically impossible!
For Xiao Lin, why would he bother with a grueling, high-level battle when he could easily win?
He doesn't have any masochistic tendencies!
It was precisely because he sensed that he was about to break through again that Xiao Lin temporarily abandoned his plan to go to Central Plains immediately after recovering.
Another month has passed, Xiao Lin has been back at the Jia Nan Academy for almost five months now.
On this day, after emerging from seclusion, Xiao Lin broke through to the Four-Star Dou Venerable realm, officially entering the ranks of Mid-Level Dou Venerable!
"This kid has real talent! He found a breakthrough opportunity after just one match with me. It seems my earlier thoughts were correct!"
Sensing the aura that Xiao Lin exuded after his breakthrough, Mang Tianchi, who was eating sweets and drinking tea alone in the dean's office, couldn't help but have a glint of light flash in his eyes.
At this moment, Mang Tianchi strengthened Lei Clan's resolve to invest in Xiao Lin!
Shortly after his breakthrough, Xiao Lin arrived at the dean's office.
At this moment, due to the commotion caused by Xiao Lin's breakthrough, First Elder Su Qian and Qian Bai Er Lao had already arrived here.
Upon seeing the group, Xiao Lin first nodded to them as a greeting, then looked at Mang Tianchi.
"Dean, there's nothing much going on at the academy right now. I'd like to continue my training in Central Plains to improve my strength."
Upon entering the dean's office, Xiao Lin went straight to the point.
Upon hearing Xiao Lin's words, a look of reluctance flashed in the eyes of First Elder Su Qian, who was standing to the side.
However, it was not hard to tell from his expression that he had obviously expected this.
He had long suspected that Xiao Lin's return was only temporary.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that Xiao Lin's stay at the Jia Nan Academy for over five months after returning was beyond his expectations.
"That's pretty much what I was thinking, so let's do it together."
Upon hearing what Bu Tianchi said, Xiao Lin was completely stunned.
To be honest, he had considered a million possibilities, but he never expected the other party to say that!
"What, you don't want to?"
After taking a sip of tea, Mang Tianchi glanced at Xiao Lin and asked.
"No, Dean, are you serious?"
Coming to his senses, Xiao Lin asked with a surprised look.
Mang Tianchi wants to go to Central Plains with him?
This was something Xiao Lin hadn't expected.
"Of course, I actually planned to leave a month ago, but I stayed until now because you were about to break through. You didn't think I would stay in the academy for a long time, did you?"
It can only be said that Mang Tianchi, as a hands-off manager, has absolutely no psychological pressure whatsoever!
"Yes, this is the longest the dean has stayed since he came back. He has never stayed for more than three months before. This time, I think it has been seven or eight months!"
Old Lin, what do you think the dean's purpose was?
At this moment, First Elder Su Qian, who was standing to the side, also spoke up to explain.
Upon hearing First Elder Su Qian's words, Xiao Lin immediately realized what was going on.
It seems the Mang Tianchi is waiting for me!
This touched Xiao Lin deeply.
Come to think of it, given Mang Tianchi's personality and his status, how could he possibly stay at the Jia Nan Academy for long under normal circumstances?
