What are the projects for XiongJing?
talent?
Lin Kong is now twelve years old, level twenty-five, and possesses an External Soul Bone that can grow. Yu Tianheng subconsciously recalled his Soul Power Level at the age of twelve and immediately dismissed the thought, realizing that thinking about it further would only be pointless.
strength?
The two are quite far apart in age, and comparing them makes it seem like he's bullying the younger one, which is pointless.
background?
Lin Kong's casual " Uncle Ning " immediately made Yu Tianheng abandon the topic. What kind of identity did Ning Fengzhi have? He was the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, a figure whom the entire Heaven Dou Empire had to give some face to. Even with his background in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, he couldn't gain any advantage in front of him.
identity?
Yu Tianheng's eyes darted around as he looked at Lin Kong, asking in a seemingly casual tone, "Brother, where are you from? What does your family do?"
"Keep it a secret." Lin Kong simply shook his head without the slightest hesitation.
"No!" Yu Tianheng was completely baffled, his brows furrowed. "What's there to keep secret? We'll all be classmates from now on, it's just a chat about our backgrounds."
As he spoke, he discreetly slipped one hand behind his back and gestured a few times towards Osler.
Osler understood the implication and immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, Brother Lin Kong, tell us! You see, everyone knows the identities of the captain and vice-captain. For example, I'm from the Feilier Clan of Yasidang City, and my father is the patriarch; Yu Feng is a member of the Yu Clan of Qingshan City. You wouldn't happen to be...?"
He paused halfway through his sentence, a hint of probing in his eyes.
Could he be a commoner with no family background?
Even commoners shouldn't be afraid to reveal their place of origin, right?
Is it because she has a fragile sense of self-esteem and is afraid of being looked down upon?
Lin Kong didn't answer the question directly, but calmly said, "I haven't even told Teacher Qin Ming about my identity and background. It's not that I intentionally kept it from you."
He knew in his heart that some things could not be said. The secret of the right leg bone of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor would only lead to his death if it were revealed. He had to keep his mouth shut.
Yu Tianheng pressed further, "You won't tell me that? How are you going to get into school?"
"I don't know!" Lin Kong's tone remained calm, even taking it for granted. "I don't know much about the academy's rules. Teacher Qin Ming is handling these things; I just need to wait."
He looked up at Dugu Yan, smiled brightly, and asked, "Do you think I'll be able to get into university in the end?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan also showed a puzzled expression. "This..."
She wasn't very clear about the specific rules of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. She had just joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy this year with a very clear goal: to join the Imperial Fighting Team and prepare for the All-Continent Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academy four years from now. Only a month had passed, and she didn't know much about it yet.
Yu Tianheng opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
Would saying I'm certain Lin Kong won't get into school make Dugu Yan think I'm targeting him, and seem petty?
To say that Lin Kong is certain of admission? Wouldn't that be tantamount to admitting that you have gained a formidable competitor, one whose talent far surpasses your own?
Especially when he thought about the scene of Dugu Yan holding Lin Kong's hand, Yu Tianheng felt uncomfortable.
He quietly made another hand gesture behind his back.
Osler immediately understood and quickly changed the subject, asking with a smile, "Brother Lin Kong, let's not talk about that. Do you have any hobbies? Like playing musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, painting, walking chickens and dogs, riding horses, or something like that?"
This conversation, seemingly casual, was actually a roundabout way of probing Lin Kong's background. After all, people from different social classes have vastly different interests.
Upon hearing this, Lin Kong shook his head helplessly. "If that's how you ask me, I can only make up a few things to answer you."
Yu Tianheng's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Sure! Tell me about it, no problem."
Can you compose a few lines?
That would be perfect!
Humans can never imagine things they have never seen before; a person's words and actions all stem from their own personal experiences.
As soon as Lin Kong opens his mouth, they can tell from his description of his "hobbies" what kind of life he used to lead and what his background is.
When the time comes, we'll always find something that can surpass him!
Lin Kong asked, "Do you know what kind of injuries people suffer when they are struck by lightning and killed while hiding under a big tree on a rainy day?"
In an instant, all eyes fell on Yu Tianheng. When it comes to knowledge of "lightning", he should be the expert!
Yu Tianheng stammered, speechless.
He didn't see it with his own eyes!
Since that's the case, let's make one up!
"He was struck by lightning, his whole body was burned by the high temperature, his skin turned black, and if it gets serious, it will crack, his hair will stand up, and smoke will come out of his mouth." This was Yu Tianheng's answer.
"Wrong!" Lin Kong shook his head. "What you just described was the situation of being directly struck by lightning. When you take shelter under a big tree on a rainy day, the lightning will only strike the tree, causing similar damage. As for the person, they are killed by the immense power of the lightning, which manifests as... broken bones, blood coming from the mouth and nose, and ruptured internal organs!"
Yu Tianheng's face gradually turned red, overwhelmed with shame!
Dugu Yan's small mouth opened slightly as she looked at Lin Kong, her beautiful eyes blinking. She hadn't expected him to "crush" Yu Tianheng in this aspect at all.
That's an exaggeration!
Lin Kong shifted his gaze and found Osler. "South of Yasidang City, there's a vast expanse of mudflats inhabited by all sorts of migratory birds. They migrate in spring and winter, their numbers countless, forming a mighty, vast flock in the sky. Do you understand?"
"Ah!!!" Memories flooded Osler's mind, and he immediately replied, "I understand, of course I understand! When I was a child, I could see migratory birds flying over Yasidang City every year. Back then, I would..."
"Bird droppings!" Lin Kong immediately chimed in, raising a finger.
"That's it! Bird droppings!" Osler perked up, as if he had met a kindred spirit. "So many migratory birds! The droppings fall like rain."
He recalled that scene, hugged his arms, and shuddered.
" Osler, have you gone further away, ten, twenty, or even fifty miles away from where the migratory birds flock together, to observe their migration?"
"Yes, maybe..." Osler shook his head, "No, I've never really seen migratory birds from that angle."
Lin Kong spoke leisurely, opening his hands in front of him as if unfurling a scroll, as if igniting their imaginations, "From afar, you wouldn't mistake them for countless migratory birds, but for a single bird, a bird thousands of miles in size, its wingspan resembling a descending cloud. This bird has a name: Peng!"
"Let me ask you again, do migratory birds migrate in groups, and do ocean fish migrate in groups? Of course they do! It's an equally magnificent sight. From 10,000 meters above, you would only see one fish, a fish called a Kun."
"Kun and Peng! Kun, Peng! Kunpeng! Legendary mythical beasts!"
Osler was completely distracted by Lin Kong's words.
Just thinking about it made Dugu Yan feel her blood boil, her cheeks flushed, and she looked at Lin Kong and asked, "How do you know all this?"
"Peng is easy to spot; just wait for it along the migratory bird route at the right time! As for Kun, my elders can take me flying to 10,000 meters above the ground to look down!" Lin Kong casually shook his head. "It's very simple."
That was a really cool statement!
What level of skill is required for an elder to fly to an altitude of 10,000 meters?
Titled Douluo?
While everyone was brainstorming, Lin Kong found the next person, " Yu Feng!"
"Ah! What's wrong?" Yu Feng was startled.
"Hmm, let me think! You're from Qingshan City, which is most famous for its waterfalls. The empire's largest waterfall is located around Qingshan City, called Cloud Mountain Waterfall, right?"
"Yes!" Yu Feng nodded dryly.
Lin Kong's lips curled up. "Have you ever seen a waterfall at dusk? Especially during the rainy season, the heavy rainfall pushes the waterfall to its limit. Combined with the dim light of dusk, in the hazy grayness, the silvery-white spray of the waterfall is incredibly eye-catching... Hiss... In short!"
Lin Kong had piqued everyone's curiosity!
Lin Kong, feigning profundity, said, "It seems as if the Milky Way has fallen from the ninth heaven!"
hiss--
Yu Feng gasped, his eyes darting around, muttering, "It seems like the Milky Way has fallen from the ninth heaven... fallen from the ninth heaven... That, that's simply..."
Click!
The image suddenly flashed into his mind and matched the words. Yu Feng jumped up from his chair in shock, swallowing hard. " Lin Kong, no, brother, how did you come up with that? For generations, my family has watched over Cloud Mountain Waterfall, and none of the words we've spoken can compare to yours."
"It seems as if the Milky Way has fallen from the ninth heaven!"
"Beautiful! Absolutely stunning!"
At this moment, Lin Kong used his knowledge to completely overwhelm Yu Tianheng, Osler, and Yu Feng.
To put it simply, he knew more about the details of how lightning kills people than Yu Tianheng.
On a grander scale, he has personally witnessed migratory birds and fish swimming in groups, and he can summarize it in one word.
In the world of fantasy, the phrase "It seems as if the Milky Way has fallen from the ninth heaven" is enough to make Cloud Mountain Waterfall famous.
At this moment, Lin Kong's identity and background became extremely mysterious!
Dugu Yan stared at Lin Kong, completely mesmerized, her cheeks flushing deeper.
