The Strongest Urban Son-in-law
Chapter 389 - 388: Half-step Master?

Chapter 389: Chapter 388: Half-step Master?

Mu Yun, as well as everyone else present, felt an immense sense of confusion. Just yesterday, Gao Zhixiang was no match for Ye Feng, defeated with a single effortless strike. Yet today, the fierceness displayed by Gao Zhixiang was astounding; the eight Great Perfection Inner Strength experts stood no chance against him, easily overpowered without any resistance.

Gao Zhixiang’s face was filled with disdain as he said coldly, "Who told you, I was only at the first layer of Inner Strength Great Perfection?"

"Boom!" In an instant, Inner Strength erupted violently, a turbulent wave of energy burst forth from Gao Zhixiang’s body.

His clothes billowed wildly as a terrifying oppressive force descended. At this moment, Gao Zhixiang exuded a majestic aura akin to that of a Grandmaster, like a mountain insurmountable, overwhelmingly powerful.

This intense pressure made everyone feel as though there was a several hundred-pound boulder on their backs, causing them to unconsciously bend their waists.

Gao Zhixiang was shocked; such an aura, he had only ever sensed from one other peer.

That was from Jiang Haoyuan, the president of the Heavenly Dao Society, the top young leader of Longdu University.

And Jiang Haoyuan was a Half-step Master. Mu Yun’s heart, in this instance, was engulfed by a storm of awe, struggling to calm down, with only endless astonishment and surprise in his eyes.

"Half-step Master! How is this possible, how can this be? Weren’t you at the first layer of Great Perfection Inner Strength? Why are you a Half-step Master!" shouted Mu Yun, overwhelmed with shock.

Not just Mu Yun, but everyone present was shocked; they could never have anticipated that Gao Zhixiang was actually a Half-step Master, and such a formidable one at that.

With a cold sneer, Gao Zhixiang said, "You fool, you overestimate yourself. I have only just stepped into the realm of Half-step Master, and you’re already no match for me. Ye Feng, our boss, is even stronger than me. Provoking him, aren’t you just asking for death?"

"What!" Every person present was shocked. They hadn’t anticipated that a Half-step Master could be that formidable.

They had originally thought, while Half-step Masters were powerful, strictly speaking, they were akin to Great Perfection Inner Strength, on the same level. The difference wasn’t significant, and with enough numbers, a Half-step Master could be defeated.

But they were wrong now. Half-step Masters were nothing like Great Perfection Inner Strength; not on the same level at all.

If Gao Zhixiang was already this powerful, then Ye Feng, who was even stronger than Gao Zhixiang, meant that Mu Yun and the others stood even less of a chance against him. Finally, everyone understood why Ye Feng was so arrogant.

Because Ye Feng had every right to be so. Mu Yun and the others posed no threat to Ye Feng; they were not even on the same level. Ye Feng had no reason to fear them.

However, this was excruciatingly hard for Mu Yun to accept; his inner turmoil refused to subside. "This can’t be possible. Even our president doesn’t progress this fast in his cultivation. How can you possibly have reached the realm of Half-step Master? It’s impossible!"

Wang and the others also found it hard to accept. Gao Zhixiang’s cultivation had suddenly advanced to such a degree.

Gao Zhixiang, full of contempt, said, "What’s impossible! Ye Feng, our boss, taught me an incredibly advanced Cultivation Method. Even the Cultivation Methods of the Grandmasters of the Gao Family can’t compare to what the boss has given me.

The method the boss imparted to me led me to a realization. In just a single day, it allowed my cultivation to successfully ascend to the realm of Half-step Master. Within three years, I will surely become a Grandmaster!"

"An advanced Cultivation Method, how can that be!" Everyone was shocked once more, finding it hard to believe.

It was common knowledge that the top five noble families’ Martial Arts Cultivation Methods were the most advanced, other than those in the Dragon Country national treasury. No other methods surpassed those of the top five families.

Yet, Ye Feng taught Gao Zhixiang an even higher level technique, eliciting shock and awe.

The Cultivation Methods from the five top noble families were all of the Spiritual Level quality, which meant that the method Ye Feng taught must be of, at the very least, Earth-Level quality. Realizing this left Mu Yun in horror.

Every Cultivation Method belonging to the five top noble families, each valued in the hundreds of billions, would cause a bloodbath upon release. The prominent status of these families today bore significant connection to their Cultivation Methods.

Yet Ye Feng possessed an even higher level; Mu Yun was profoundly aware of what that meant.

Standing up, Mu Yun, dragging his heavily injured body, looked at Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, I apologize for what transpired today. My prior actions were all wrong. I was too arrogant. I surely don’t have the right to invite you to join our Heavenly Dao Society; only our president has that privilege. Please forgive my recklessness!"

There was a trace of disdain in Ye Feng’s eyes as he said indifferently, "Get lost. I don’t want to see you right now."

Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, Mu Yun wasn’t angered but instead became very respectful, "Thank you. Then I’ll be leaving. I assure you, I won’t bother you again. I hope you can give the Heavenly Dao Society another chance."

After speaking, Mu Yun called Wang and the others and left the classroom.

"What!" All the students watched, dumbfounded, finding it difficult to accept, feeling as if they were dreaming. They initially thought Ye Feng was done for.

But then Gao Zhixiang appeared and easily overcame them all.

And it wasn’t just that; now Mu Yun not only harbored no anger towards Ye Feng but his attitude had also made a complete one-eighty, showing utmost respect.

Upon this realization, everyone felt a deep shock, utterly at a loss.

"Could it be... Could it be that there’s no one in Longdu University who can suppress Ye Feng?" The students’ hearts were filled with complex emotions, some staring at Ye Feng, muttering in disbelief.

Some spoke in a daze, "I don’t know. Maybe, just maybe, Jiang Haoyuan stands a sliver of a chance..."

Ye Feng had been in Longdu University for merely a few days and had already provoked numerous notable individuals. Three of the four great youngsters were subdued by him, and even Li Qinghua, the department head, couldn’t handle Ye Feng.

At this point, within Longdu University, everyone saw Jiang Haoyuan as the only one who might have a chance to suppress Ye Feng, but whether it was possible, no one was certain.
