Jiang Haoyuan’s forehead instantly began to sweat beads, his complexion a tad unsightly.
At this moment, Jiang Haoyuan immediately circulated the Inner Strength within his body, knowing that if he didn’t put his full effort into pushing back, his palm could very well be crushed by Ye Feng.
"Bang!" In an instant, an airwave erupted almost simultaneously from both Ye Feng and Jiang Haoyuan.
Jiang Haoyuan’s face turned beet red, exceedingly ugly as he exerted 120% of his strength.
However, it was only after Jiang Haoyuan had employed 120% of his strength that he gradually began to turn the tables.
Jiang Haoyuan felt the pain from his injury subsiding, but Ye Feng still looked entirely at ease.
Jiang Haoyuan’s immense pride took a serious hit; he wanted to suppress Ye Feng.
But just then, Ye Feng released his grip, looking indifferently at Jiang Haoyuan.
Jiang Haoyuan was stunned; just as he had been about to fight back with all his might, Ye Feng let go, but there was no doubt that in this brief skirmish, Jiang Haoyuan had come out on the losing end.
At this point in time, rather than feeling defeated, Jiang Haoyuan was incredibly excited.
Jiang Haoyuan had made a judgment about Ye Feng’s strength, and although he had been at a disadvantage just now, it was caused by his own carelessness. If he had responded with his full strength, it would at least be a draw.
Therefore, Jiang Haoyuan believed that he was on par with Ye Feng. If they truly fought, it was still unknown who would be more formidable, of course. Ye Feng was fully seven years younger than Jiang Haoyuan, who didn’t feel the least bit diminished.
He thought that it was because Ye Feng had practiced a superior Earth-level technique that he had such formidable strength.
If he practiced the same technique as Ye Feng, then certainly, his own strength would be even more powerful!
At this moment, Jiang Haoyuan’s excitement grew; he secretly vowed to obtain Ye Feng’s technique.
Jiang Haoyuan said, "Right, Ye Feng, every new member of the Heavenly Dao Society is subject to a trial period, lasting one week. Next Friday, you can report your progress. The trial is simple: do something beneficial for the Heavenly Dao Society in its name.
As long as you get approval from over two-thirds of the members, then you can become a permanent member. Some people inject capital for the development of the Heavenly Dao Society, others represent the school in nationwide competitions to win glory for us. I believe, Brother Ye Feng, you should find it quite easy to accomplish."
Ye Feng smiled faintly, "There’s no need for such trouble. I just happen to have an Earth-level technique, which I’ll contribute to the Heavenly Dao Society."
"What!" Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, Jiang Haoyuan wavered, and Gao Zhixiang was also visibly shocked.
That was an Earth-level technique, something the five top families craved, and Ye Feng was simply offering it?
Jiang Haoyuan’s voice trembled a bit as he felt a dryness in his throat.
As the young master of the Jiang Family, what haven’t I seen? Yet, upon hearing Ye Feng’s proposal, my heart still raced, unable to contain my emotions.
Ye Feng smiled slightly, "Of course, it’s just a part of an Earth-level technique, containing some basic methods for nurturing Inner Strength. It can significantly enhance the process of transforming Inner Strength into True Essence by at least thirty percent. Earth-level techniques are invaluable. I couldn’t possibly offer the complete technique, but you should understand."
"Phew..." Jiang Haoyuan heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought it was unlikely for Ye Feng to freely give away a technique.
Still, even a part contributed by Ye Feng could reduce the time for Inner Strength to transform into True Essence by thirty percent.
Jiang Haoyuan had the confidence to break through to the Grandmaster realm by the age of forty.
With Ye Feng’s technique, he was certain he could achieve it before the age of thirty-six and create history!
Thus, even though it was only a part, Jiang Haoyuan was very eager.
Subsequently, Ye Feng took out a small notebook, "This is a part of the technique I’ve transcribed by hand. Take a look."
Then, Ye Feng handed the notebook to Jiang Haoyuan, who, after reading it, became ecstatic. Indeed, it was countless times more profound than the technique he was practicing, and Jiang Haoyuan was sure that practicing according to the book would indeed be thirty percent more efficient than his own technique, both in time and efficacy!
Jiang Haoyuan immediately grew incredibly eager, desperate to attain the complete method.
Ye Feng looked at Jiang Haoyuan and asked, "What do you think, Chairman Jiang, is this part enough for me to pass the evaluation?"
"More than enough! If anyone dares say it isn’t, I’ll have them thrown out of our Heavenly Dao Society!" Jiang Haoyuan declared loudly, his excitement difficult to calm down for a long time.
"Good, I’ve now shown my sincerity, and I hope the Heavenly Dao Society won’t disappoint me," Ye Feng said indifferently. However, he thought to himself: "Even for your complete technique, I won’t let you be disappointed!"
Jiang Haoyuan laughed heartily, "Rest assured, our Heavenly Dao Society will absolutely not disappoint you. You guys rest up for now; I have things to attend to. I’ll notify you when it’s time for the meeting!"
Upon hearing Jiang Haoyuan’s words, Ye Feng nodded faintly.
It wasn’t long before Jiang Haoyuan left the dormitory. After he was gone, Gao Zhixiang asked discontentedly, "Boss, why did you give him the technique? Even if it was only a part, it still holds endless value. The technique you taught me, you don’t allow me to teach to anyone, yet now you’ve given it to the Heavenly Dao Society!"
Ye Feng said indifferently, "Don’t worry, yours and his are not the same, and besides, do you really think I would give it away that easily?"
Ye Feng’s reason for giving away this part was merely to cast a long line to catch a big fish. Once Jiang Haoyuan got a taste of the benefits, he would surely want to please Ye Feng to get the complete technique, making Ye Feng one of their own.
In this way, Ye Feng would eventually be able to easily investigate information about Bloody Heaven; that was his plan.
