Chapter 735 - 733: Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist
Taking a deep breath, Chen Tianlong began focusing his Qi. He resolved to use all his current strength and the fastest attack speed he could muster to see if there would be any unexpected outcomes.
"Hoh..." Chen Tianlong punched once more.
"Boom..."
A thunderous noise shattered the bench opposite him into pieces, scattering them across the ground. Chen Tianlong’s eyes widened; he fully understood what had just happened, as he executed the move himself.
He observed the high-quality wooden bench about two meters away being struck by two apparitions created by the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist. Chen Tianlong initially thought these apparitions were just for show with no actual effect, but at this moment, that notion was completely dispelled.
These apparitions not only did not diminish in energy but seemed more potent—what was happening?
Aside from his surprise, Chen Tianlong was also exhilarated because the stronger the move, the more advantageous it was for him. Suddenly, Chen Tianlong recalled a crucial issue, which was the energy and physical strength consumption of the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist. Chen Tianlong initiated his cultivation technique and discovered that his Qi and stamina were hardly consumed.
In other words, the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist did not demand much physical strength or Qi—in simple terms, it dealt fixed damage.
Moreover, Chen Tianlong’s personal power level—once it increased—the fixed damage of the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist would also rise accordingly. As an accompanying technique of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, it was surely linked to the technique’s upgrade.
Therefore, two factors influence the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist: the technique’s level and the upgrade of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique.
"Wow! So powerful."
Seeing the ground covered in wooden shards, Chen Tianlong was overjoyed.
Evidently, the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist had decent power, though this was just the first move. No matter the technique, the first move is usually quite simple and not too powerful.
Even so, Chen Tianlong was already very satisfied, considering the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist had a total of seven moves. If this power continued to upgrade, wouldn’t it be even more heaven-defying?
At this thought, Chen Tianlong felt a bit excited.
Thinking it over, Chen Tianlong realized his current strength was insufficient to deal with those three formidable opponents. After deliberation, he decided to visit Master Tan Tian to see if he could undergo body refinement.
Master Fang Yan had mentioned that only when one’s attack and defense were enhanced could the Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist integrate more perfectly with the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, potentially unleashing its full effect and activating the Martial God’s Arm.
After taking a deep breath, Chen Tianlong went to his wardrobe, dressed neatly, and left the room. It was time for breakfast again; Lin Wushuang couldn’t go to school, but Lu Xiaoyu had to. Although they shared a deep sisterly bond, it couldn’t interfere with their studies, and even if Xiaoyu was willing, Lin Wushuang would not agree.
Just as Chen Tianlong stepped out, he saw Yang Xinru from the neighboring room also stepping out, well-groomed and dazzling. Seeing such beauty early in the morning made Chen Tianlong feel quite lucky.
"Morning, Xinru."
"Haha, Chen Tianlong, morning!"
Yang Xinru habitually called him Chen Tianlong, unlike Lu Xiaoyu and Wu Mengting, who called him Tianlong. Although it felt a bit unfamiliar, Chen Tianlong had grown used to it and didn’t mind at all.
As they reached the hall, they saw Lu Xiaoyu eating voraciously as if she hadn’t eaten in days. Chen Tianlong chuckled wryly and approached, saying, "Xiaoyu, slow down. Why are you eating so fast?"
"Oh, it’s like this. I had a dream last night where I had nothing to eat and was starving half to death. So, this morning, seeing Mr. Hu had breakfast ready, I ate more, just in case it turned out like the dream."
Lu Xiaoyu spoke while eating, showing none of the elegance of a classic beauty.
Seeing Lu Xiaoyu’s explanation, Chen Tianlong and Yang Xinru were left bemused. This glutton couldn’t be stopped; even in an earthquake, she might think of eating first before escaping.
"Alright then, eat more if you want. After you’re full, I’ll take you to school." Chen Tianlong said with a slight smile.
"Okay, but... ah! Without Wushuang here, classes will be dull for Xiaoyu." Lu Xiaoyu felt a bit sad at this point.
But upon seeing Yang Xinru, a thought crossed her mind, and she asked, "Xinru, aren’t you transferring over? Which grade are you in?"
"Oh, I’m in the second year of high school. What about you guys?" Yang Xinru, aware that Chen Tianlong was in the second year, inquired since she wasn’t sure about the others.
"Ah? I’m also in the second year; not just me, Wushuang and Tianlong are too." Lu Xiaoyu was thrilled to hear Yang Xinru’s response and continued, "Does that mean you’ll be in the same class as us?"
"Oh, not sure. My dad said the principal had it arranged; I’ll just find him when I get to school."
Yang Xinru replied indifferently; as to which class she’d be in, she didn’t care.
Not because she excelled in studies but because her academic demands weren’t high; just passing and graduating smoothly sufficed.
Being from a prestigious family, she didn’t need to worry about finding a job; she could start working right after graduation.
She was a master at surgery and a martial arts enthusiast who didn’t particularly value academics.
Elder Yang saw that the Yang family only had a few young ones, and with Yang Fan’s health issues preventing further training, only Yang Xinru was smart and a good prospect for martial arts.
Elder Yang, being advanced in age, didn’t want to remarry and risk conflicts with his former wife, unrest at home, and resentment from Yang Xinru and Yang Fan.
"Okay."
Lu Xiaoyu didn’t press for more, understanding these matters were beyond her influence. All she could do was pray; otherwise, these days would surely be dull for her.
Although Chen Tianlong was around, as a girl, she couldn’t talk with him non-stop without feeling shy. With Lin Wushuang present, it felt fine, but being alone with Chen Tianlong was worrisome for her.
Soon, the three finished breakfast and set off together.
Chen Tianlong drove an Audi with Lu Xiaoyu right beside him in the passenger seat, giving her a different feeling.
After all, it was her first time alone with Chen Tianlong, while Yang Xinru drove her white BMW. Both luxury cars set out straight for South Sea No.1 Middle School.
As soon as they arrived, Yang Xinru received a call from Principal Situ Feng, instructing her to visit the principal’s office to handle the transfer procedures.
Meanwhile, Chen Tianlong led Lu Xiaoyu towards the high school third-year (1) classroom.
Entering the classroom, Chen Tianlong was taken aback as he saw Xu Fei had returned to attend classes. But then he realized, the main culprit, Chu Jingyun, had likely fled back to their old home in the Capital City. As for other matters, those were police and Chu family’s concerns, and Chen Tianlong didn’t want to bother with it.
