Although he had already made a rough judgnt in his heart, Qian Shanxue still looked at Shen Qiang with eyes full of expectation, waiting for his answer.
However, at this mont, with his heart pounding wildly, Shen Qiang, who had realized that his Foundation Establishnt should be of the strongest, the Emperor Realm, did not want to tell Qian Shanxue the truth.
Because this was his trump card!
Even if it was Qian Shanxue, what then?
Such a secret, it was enough that Shen Qiang himself knew it.
Although telling the truth to Qian Shanxue might allow him to see her shocked expression, and perhaps even earn her admiration,
what else?
The mbers of the Dragon Group would soon know about Shen Qiang's situation, and if the secrecy was not well-managed, it wouldn't be long before the entire Cultivation World knew about it.
By that ti, those who harbored hostility towards Shen Qiang, if they had even a slight bit of intelligence, would certainly try everything they could to kill Shen Qiang quickly, and definitely not give him any chance to grow.
For a mont of satisfaction, leaving behind so many risks for the future was definitely not sothing a wise person would do.
So, even though he was ecstatic inside, Shen Qiang rely said calmly, "Oh, I just saw it raining and thundering."
Qian Shanxue exclaid in astonishnt, "You just saw it raining and thundering? How is that possible, I saw thousands of flying snowflakes, the instructor back then was only at the Yang God Realm, and he could easily withstand it, and now his cultivation has reached the Peak of the Mixed Elent..."
Instantly realizing that Qian Shanxue was at the Foundation Establishnt of King Realm, which was an extrely rare top-tier talent, lying unconvincingly in front of her would definitely not pass muster.
"Um... all I saw was thunder and lightning intermingling, so I really just saw that."
Hearing this, Qian Shanxue, with her eyes shining brightly, said in shock, "All you saw was thunder and lightning intermingling? What an incredible talent, that's more like it. Maybe your talent is even higher than mine. The instructor was careless for a mont, so he failed unintentionally, didn't stop it for even a second…"
As she spoke, doubt began to fill Qian Shanxue's eyes again.
Of course, Shen Qiang knew exactly what she was thinking.
It is known that for cultivators, below the Nascent Soul Stage, the speed of cultivation is usually very fast. As long as the talents are not too different, the pace of cultivation is roughly the sa. However, after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, without exceptional talent, it is very difficult for cultivators to ascend above the Mixed Elent Realm.
And Qian Shanxue's instructor, not only possessed exceptional talent but also had experience. Clearly, he would not make a move without a certain level of confidence.
Moreover, even if Shen Qiang's talent was just a bit stronger than Qian Shanxue's, it wouldn't possibly result in an experienced instructor, whose cultivation had greatly improved since then, being instantly defeated.
Fearing that Qian Shanxue would continue to dwell on this issue, Shen Qiang quickly interrupted, saying, "The money I borrowed from you last ti, plus the junk I helped you dispose of, adds up to about two hundred million. I should be able to pay you back this weekend."
Qian Shanxue oh-ed, a bit surprised, "I didn't expect that those scraps were actually quite valuable," but then her brows furrowed slightly, as if she had another question.
Shen Qiang quickly interrupted again, "How are Ali and Ye Xiaolei doing?"
At this, Qian Shanxue raised an eyebrow, "Ali received the necklace you exchanged for her with 1500 points, and said you still have so conscience. Ye Xiaolei is the sa as always, tense as soon as she speaks, but her performance in tasks can only be described with the word 'genius,' impressively surprising."
"Really?" Shen Qiang laughed.
Just when Shen Qiang thought he had successfully diverted the topic, Qian Shanxue furrowed her brows and said, "But I still feel that there was sothing off about your Foundation Establishnt this ti."
Seeing that she was about to turn the conversation back to his Foundation Establishnt, the helpless Shen Qiang could only frown and coldly bluff, "Well, now you know, my Foundation Establishnt was very successful, my talent is incredible. Maybe we should have a spar to see who is more formidable."
Qian Shanxue was taken aback; her expression imdiately returned to normal, and then she looked at Shen Qiang very seriously, "Under the Mixed Elent Realm, all are re ants. You are still far from qualifying to spar with . I'll give you ten years. If you can reach the Mixed Elent Realm within ten years, I will give you an opportunity to face ."
Seeing Qian Shanxue's serious eyes no longer pursuing the issue of his Foundation Establishnt, Shen Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt inexplicably defiant because Qian Shanxue's words were just too provocative.
"Did it take you ten years to reach the Mixed Elent Realm?" Shen Qiang asked, his eyebrows raised, full of disbelief.
Qian Shanxue was silent for a mont, then looked at Shen Qiang very seriously, "I entered the Dragon Nest at the age of three, started cultivating at four, completed my Foundation Establishnt at thirteen. After that, it took nine years and three months to break through to the Mixed Elent Realm. If your talent truly surpasses mine, and your understanding is stronger, then ten years is more than enough."
"If after ten years, you have not reached the cultivation level of the Mixed Elent Realm, then you simply do not qualify to face . What you should do is honestly be my subordinate for life."
Shen Qiang's eyebrows shot up, and he retorted coldly, "Ten years is too long, that only proves that your capabilities are not that impressive. If it were up to , I believe three years would be sufficient to cultivate to the Mixed Elent Realm."
Qian Shanxue was startled, and a rare, faint smile appeared on her face, "Three years? It took nine years to beco a Mixed Elent Realm expert, hailed as a once-in-a-century genius by the Cultivation World. If you could reach the Mixed Elent Realm within three years, wouldn't that make you a once-in-a-millennium decisive talent?"
Shen Qiang felt proud inside and really wanted to say, "Yes, you guessed right."
But given the circumstances, he opted to swallow the words he had almost said.
Seeing Shen Qiang fall silent, Qian Shanxue turned and walked to the sickbed to check on the middle-aged man.
She imdiately felt, as if led by an invisible wind, seven silver needles circulating nature's spiritual energy around the middle-aged man's Qi Sea.
"What a peculiar acupuncture technique. Even though there are only seven needles, the accumulated nature's spiritual energy is no less powerful than a small Array from the training class! This Shen Qiang, he is becoming more and more enigmatic," she thought.
"But that's right; he does possess Disaster Level abilities, after all."
With this thought, Qian Shanxue quietly kept him company.
Then, the property managent staff arrived, intending to check the lightning rod on the roof and notifying the residents that they were doing their utmost to help repair the electrical facilities. During this process, they were advised not to use high-power electrical appliances as the backup power equipnt was not sufficiently robust.
Shen Qiang did not let them go up to the roof, telling them his girlfriend was undressed and asking them to co back tomorrow.
After speaking, Shen Qiang, who was imnsely pleased with his Emperor Realm Foundation Establishnt, looked forward to the other two items of Mixed Arts and the refining of Primary Level Elixir Pills. Thus, he chatted intermittently with Golden Cicada while quietly waiting for the middle-aged man's treatnt.
Two hours later.
With a cough, the man woke up. After briefly conversing with Qian Shanxue, Shen Qiang gave him so precautions, then asked them to leave, as it was his ho and he did not want it to turn into a hospital.
As the middle-aged man was leaving, his eyes filled with shock as he hesitated and asked, "Captain Shen, an acupuncture technique that can heal a ruptured Qi Sea is unheard of in the Cultivation World. If you don't mind, could you tell the na of this technique?"
Shen Qiang smiled, paused for a mont and then said indifferently.
"Spiritual Control Needle Technique."
