Chapter 360: Chapter 80 The Foremost in History_3
“If it hadn’t been for Master Shi Caiming’s intervention to protect my senior brother, he would have ended up like many others, dead in Datong Prefecture.”
Li Fei was startled, “Master Shi Caiming? Do you mean the current Principal Shi Caiming of Wuda?”
Shangguan Xiao nodded, “Yes, him.”
“At that time, there was no Wuda, and Master Shi Caiming was regarded as the First Master of Datong Prefecture and even the entire Feng Province. Respected and honorable, he had taught many students and advised numerous experts. His status and reputation in Feng Province were extremely high. It was because Master Shi Caiming valued talent that he chose to protect my senior brother. But even for Master Shi Caiming, the most he could do was to save my senior brother’s life.”
This was probably because Hao Yi’s Tao Foundation had been damaged, and he had no hope of making a Breakthrough again in his life, which is why the powerful figures of Datong Prefecture were willing to spare him.
But since they had let him go, why did they plot against Hao Yi again after so many years?
“Auntie Master, who exactly did our teacher offend back in the day? Who do you think is most likely to seek revenge after all these years?”
Shangguan Xiao looked at him somewhat helplessly, “If we’re talking about offending people, my senior brother managed to offend practically all the high-ranking officials in Datong Prefecture.”
Shangguan Xiao continued, “The previous Garrison Commander retired early precisely because my senior brother caused so much trouble. If we’re talking about hatred, this Garrison Commander and his family must hate my senior brother to the bone.”
“Besides, there were many important figures my senior brother had ousted from power back in the day. Not all of them were sentenced to death; many are still alive and could potentially seek revenge.”
“There are also those geniuses whose Heart Realms were shattered by my senior brother, like Xu Jing who troubled you before. He was once known throughout Feng Province as a talented individual and deemed likely to represent Feng Province on the Fengyun Leaderboard as a Tao Foundation Stage expert. Yet, he was defeated by my senior brother multiple times and has held a grudge ever since…”
Now Li Fei understood why Hao Yi couldn’t come to Datong Prefecture.
It was simply because he had too many enemies, and coming here would be like stirring up a hornet’s nest…
Following that, Li Fei asked Shangguan Xiao for more details about the past incidents until it was time to leave the interrogation room and part ways with her.
He got back into the car, leaving Zhi Ge General Hospital with Wen Ke, heading back to Wuda.
“Professor Wen, I would like to see Principal Shi Caiming.”
In the car, after being quiet for a moment, Li Fei suddenly spoke up.
Wen Ke was not surprised, but just shook her head, “Principal Shi has been unwell and has been in seclusion all year round; unless it’s something important, he does not see visitors.”
“Well, now there is something of great importance.”
Li Fei said earnestly.
Wen Ke smiled gently, her tone still warm:
“Principal Shi will no longer bother with these matters.”
“I’m not talking about this matter.”
Li Fei shook his head.
Wen Ke turned to look at him.
Li Fei also turned to meet her gaze and said slowly:
“I have made a Breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage.”
The driver abruptly slammed on the brakes, the tires leaving a long streak on the ground.
Wen Ke glanced at the driver, who quickly apologized:
Then he continued driving.
Wen Ke turned back to Li Fei, her expression serious: “What did you say?”
“I said, I have made a Breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage,” Li Fei repeated calmly.
Of course, he wouldn’t outright say that he had completed the Breakthrough in just ten days, as that was too shocking and would only make others see him as a monster or an outlier.
In reality, he had reached the Innate Qi Late Stage in March of this year. Thanks to the special nature of his Force, coupled with his powerful Mind Power, he was able to skip the stage of refining Force and directly reach the peak of the Qi Change Stage upon making a Breakthrough.
All told, it took him a little over two months to advance from the peak of Innate Qi to the Tao Foundation Stage.
Even at this pace, he had set a record in the cultivation history of the Da Lan Dynasty!
No, not just the history of the Da Lan Dynasty’s cultivation.
In the history of human Martial Arts Cultivation over the past thousand years, the fastest record for completing ‘Unity’ from the peak of Innate Qi and making a Breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage was 92 days.
Now, Li Fei had broken that record!
In other words, his pace of Breakthrough at this stage was unprecedented in history!
Wuda had a student who set a historical record for the fastest Breakthrough pace, which was naturally a matter of great importance.
