Chapter 230: Finally Got It

ntal talent. As long as it's developed properly, the future is limitless!" 。An A-rank talent awakener, even in the entire Jiangnan Continent, is quite rare. 。"Lao Qin, your class has produced an A-lev...Only the old principal would dare to call General Longshanhai, the commander-in-chief of Pinghaizhou, like that.

"Old Master, how do you say that"

As for Xiao Hai, Long Shan Hai couldn't feel even a bit of displeasure, and he even had some fondness.

"Look at this little guy beside me!"

"When I arrived, I saw it and wanted to ask Master Qing about it."

Longshan turned his gaze to Yunfeng beside him.

"She is beautiful and graceful, but also strong-willed. She has great potential."

"You don't have to praise him, he's our school's key cultivation target."

Seeing the two people chatting about him right in front of him, Yunfeng felt a bit awkward. He could only lower his head slightly, cross his hands, and twirl his thumbs continuously.

"So you're a junior in school The future is limitless for you! But what's the matter, don't keep me in suspense."

Upon hearing Longshanhai's words, Yunfeng realized that he was also a graduate of the Pinghai Awakening Academy.

No wonder he respects the old headmaster so much.

"No, it's probably not just about identity."

He reckoned there was a huge gap in their abilities.

"You, my little junior brother, made quite a few contributions in this defensive battle. Especially the final match, which your announcement didn't even mention."

When Qinglao finished speaking, the pressure instantly shifted to Longshanhai's side.

If the matter is true and gets out, it would be a huge blow to the military's credibility. Moreover, the person who spoke about this cannot be held accountable in any way.

"Old Qing, regarding the final battle, everything came from Di Xing's report. I've always trusted his character, so I didn't verify the details. I take responsibility for this."

Although he believed in Di Xing's integrity, he trusted his teacher more and didn't think his teacher would deceive him with such a thing.

"Little apprentice, our military department has done something that has wronged you. I'll have Di Xing come over right now to apologize."

Long Shan Hai said this, and Yun Feng didn't know how to respond. He couldn't really ask Di Xing to come over and kowtow, could he

"Xiao Hai, but there's no need to make a fuss about it."

Just then, the old principal took over, relieving Yunfeng's tension.

"That Di Xing, I know him. He's been guarding the West City Gate for ten years as a military historian. It's not that he did much, but neither was he bad. This time, finally encountering such an event, he probably wants to use this opportunity to gain some merit and advance further. I can understand."

"Hmph, even so, one cannot become complacent. If this is how things are, how can my military department manage and reward merit"

Even though Qinglao offered a eulogy for Di Xing's release, he certainly wouldn't just let it slide. Otherwise, he would definitely be scolded.

This teacher of yours, he knows you too well. Don't be fooled by his kindness and approachability, he could find ways to trip you up.

Since the military communiqué has already been issued, making any further changes would damage the military's prestige.

"Thank you, Qing Lao, for thinking of the military."

Longshan Hai hurriedly bowed in greeting.

But...

Long Shan's body trembled, he knew this wasn't as simple as it seemed.

"You can't be so busy for nothing, little apprentice."

So he was getting something out of this kid.

At this time, Long Shanhai couldn't help but take another look at Yunfeng.

Being able to get one's own teacher to personally come to the military department to ask for favors, this kid isn't simple at all.

But on the surface, there was nothing particularly special about Yunfeng.

After Qing Lao leaves, I have to look into this little junior brother of mine and see what he's really about.

He kept his cool, without changing his expression.

"Since you've accomplished so much, Junior Brother, our military department will certainly not take credit for your achievements. Junior Brother, if you have any needs, please feel free to speak up. We will definitely do everything we can to help."

As he spoke, he looked towards Yunfeng.

"Really, anything is possible"

Yúnfēng still used his eyes to ask the old principal for confirmation, seeing the other party lightly nod before asking.

Of course, just don't go too overboard.

I want awakening stones.

"Wait a minute… what do you want"

Long Shanhai couldn't react immediately.

He thought Yunfeng would ask for a lot of shards, high-grade items, or something like that, but he ended up asking for just one awakening stone.

The key is, what use does this awakening stone have It's free to use at school.

Even those who don't go to school can use Awakening Stones for free at the Awakening Pavilion when they reach the appropriate age.

And, after nearly three hundred years of research, the Awakening Stone is only capable of allowing humans to awaken and break through their first barrier. It has no other value.

But for so many years, the military has kept strict control over this thing, only because they don't want anyone to awaken privately and be without supervision.

So, he doesn't understand why Yunfeng would make such a request.

Even the usually composed old man Qing Lao was now looking at Yun Feng with astonishment, wondering what he had up his sleeve.

"Supreme Commander, you heard me right. I need Awakening Stones."

"May I ask what you use awakening stones for"

He strongly suspected that Yun Feng had learned of the other uses and value of the Awakening Stone.

But, after all these years, with so many researchers working day and night, isn't it still less impressive than this little kid right here

This is the boy's secret, and I cannot tell it.

"...Could it be..."

Ching Lao frowned in thought. Hearing Yun Feng's words, he suddenly felt as if a ray of light had pierced through his mind.

He remembered when he was investigating Yunfeng, the school had told a rather unremarkable little joke.

"Yun Feng, that kid, was the last one to awaken in that generation, and he had the lowest level of talent. I almost died of anger! What pissed me off the most was that after he awakened, he used up all the awakening stones the next year."

At that time, Lao Qing only thought it was the principal of that school casually complaining. Now, combining Yunfeng's requirements, it becomes interesting.

"Plunder, back then he registered getting a little extra mana from slaying monsters, now it seems this kid is hiding something, very likely related to the awakening stones."

Yúnfēng didn't expect his request to have made the old principal think so far, and even wrongly suspected Yúnfēng's talent.

"Little brother, don't waste this good opportunity that the elders have created for you."

Longshanhai still wants to dig out some useful information about Awakening Stones.

"Thank you for your advice, but I insist on my choice."

Yunfeng's heart was clear, and with the awakening stone, he had everything else. He didn't need anything else from the military department, unless the other party could come up with a legendary-level item, which was obviously impossible.

"Since this kid wants it, just give it to him."

Just as Longshan Hai was hesitating, the elder Qing spoke up.

Okay, this time I'll give you a discount for this worthless thing.

Although awakening stones are classified as contraband, they are not considered valuable to the military. In fact, one could say that there are many of them.

Yunfeng chose Awakening Stone as compensation, their military department did indeed benefit greatly.

When Yun Feng heard Long Shan Hai agree, the stone in his heart finally dropped. He was truly afraid that the other party wouldn't agree, after all, he didn't know what status the Awakened Stone held within the military.

"Alright, I'll take my younger brother to get the Awakening Stone."es of this level.Just now, after Ren Wen's fatal blow, a golden spirit resembling the monster emerged from the dead creature's body.Yúnfēng thought something must have happened and hurried to tie up t...
