I Can Level Up By Staying Idle

Gao Feng was a Silver Lunar martial artist who had seen the world after all. He was particular about what he did. He said that he would treat Lin Mo to a meal, so in the evening, he had already set up the hotpot and prepared the ingredients. He waited for Lin Mo outside the gym.

What was more particular was that he directly carried a box of Moutai! He planned to have hotpot with white wine tonight, drinking to his heart's content and chatting happily.

This stance stunned the teachers and students of the prep class.

'Where's your integrity?'

It was already very overboard to have one eating and drinking while they were cultivating! Now, there were two?

"Dad!" Gao Haoran looked at his father bitterly. "I'm training hard inside while you guys are eating well outside… Have you considered my feelings? Have you considered the strange gazes my classmates are giving me?"

"Hurry up and get lost inside to cultivate!" Gao Feng kicked him unceremoniously. "Don't affect our meals here!"

"Wuwu…" Gao Haoran squirmed and ran into the prep class.

"Lin Mo, sit down!" However, Gao Feng's attitude towards Lin Mo was completely different. He warmly invited Lin Mo to sit down as he opened a bottle of wine.

The two of them first threw down some meatballs that were not easy to cook and took a few sips. Gao Feng then opened the topic. "You should know that the five people I arranged to stop Haoran last night are all official martial artists, right?"

"Yes!" Lin Mo did not hide. He had already insta-killed the five of them each, so his strength had long been exposed. There was nothing to hide.

"Impressive!" Gao Feng praised sincerely and probed, "You defeated five official martial artists so easily. Your strength has already stepped into… the Celestial Martial Artist Realm?"

Lin Mo thought for a moment and said ambiguously, "Something like that."

Actually, Lin Mo's current punching force was only about 1,700 kilograms. It was a huge gap from the minimum requirement of a one-star martial artist to 2,000 kilograms.

However, as long as he waited until tomorrow, Lin Mo's punching force would definitely break through the 2,000-kilogram mark. Therefore, it was not a problem for Lin Mo to say "almost". After all, it was only a day away.

Moreover, this did not mean that Lin Mo liked to forcefully show off, but if he did not have the strength equivalent to a one-star martial artist, it was indeed impossible for him to defeat five experienced official martial artists so easily. Therefore… Lin Mo either went along with the other party and tacitly agreed that he was almost a Celestial Martial Artist, or he would expose his fourth-rank combat technique!

In comparison, he still built himself into an ordinary one-star martial artist and appeared to be more low-profile.

Still …

Even though Lin Mo had tried his best to keep a low profile, Gao Feng was still shocked. "How promising! Heroes come from the young! If only our Haoran was half as capable as you!"

'Damn!'

Lin Mo understood that he had become an enviable "other people's child".

He raised his glass and comforted Gao Haoran's old father. "Although Haoran is a little lacking, he still has half of my ability!"

Lin Mo's words of comfort were not lies, but very reasonable—in terms of punching force, Lin Mo was about 1,700 kilograms, and Gao Haoran had already reached more than 1,000 kilograms, which was more than "half". In terms of combat technique, Lin Mo was at the fourth rank, and Gao Haoran had reached the second rank, which was also "half"!

At least for now, Lin Mo did not brag for Gao Haoran at all. Gao Haoran was indeed half as capable as him!

As for whether it will still be that in a few days, he didn't know.

"He still has half the ability?" Gao Feng felt that something was wrong when he heard this, but he couldn't put his finger on it, so he changed the topic. "I heard from Haoran that you come outside this prep class every day? It shouldn't be just to eat hotpot and barbecue, right? It's to improve your combat skills?"

Lin Mo was shocked.

He had disguised himself so well, how could anyone tell? It was amazing!

"Haha, I guess you've reached a bottleneck in your combat technique!" Gao Feng's face was filled with wisdom that I expected. "There's not much point in cultivating blindly for you anymore. What you need more is an epiphany to break through the bottleneck! So, on the surface, you're lying down and indulging; but in fact, you're waiting for a spiritual touch to enlighten you!—Am I right?"

"Uh…" Lin Mo, who had just picked up a meatball from the hotpot, couldn't help but pause.

'Am I right?'

Of course it wasn't right!

Gao Haoran's father was too imaginative! Epiphany, waiting for his soul to be touched, he's thought of everything!

'What nonsense is this!'

However, the other party was treating him to good food and drinks, hotpot, and Mao Tai… Lin Mo was naturally embarrassed to tell him he's wrong.

"Yes, yes!" Lin Mo replied vaguely as he ate his meatball.

You're my good brother's father, so whatever you say! We don't dare to refute!

"As expected!" Gao Feng became even more pleased with himself. His wise eyes seemed to have seen through everything about Lin Mo. "You should have already reached the bottleneck of the early-stage third rank. You can break through to the mid-stage at any time, right?"

Lin Mo thought for a moment. "Something like that!"

In reality, Lin Mo could break through to the mid-stage fourth rank at any time. It was only one word away from the mid-stage third rank that Gao Feng had guessed!

It was indeed similar!

"Impressive!" Hearing Lin Mo's affirmative answer, Gao Feng's eyes lit up even more. He praised, "The improvement of combat technique is much more difficult than the improvement of fist strength! Many two-star martial artists might not even be as good as you in terms of combat technique! Impressive, impressive, really impressive!"

Gao Feng saw even more of the potential of a "Martial Dao Grandmaster" in Lin Mo!

However, he would never have dreamed that Lin Mo's combat technique was actually not at the third rank, but the fourth rank. Otherwise, he would probably not be able to continue eating the hotpot calmly.

At that moment—

Lin Mo, who was eating hotpot and enjoying the involution index, suddenly realized that his combat technique had broken through!

"Is this… power of the blood flow?"

Lin Mo could clearly feel that in addition to the "power of internal organs" that he had perfectly controlled, he could also mobilize another force in his body—the power of blood flow!

And this was also the sign of his combat technique breaking through to the mid-stage of the fourth rank!

"Mid-stage fourth rank already?" Lin Mo was not surprised.

After all, he was already very close to breaking through last night. As long as he came over today, he would definitely be able to break through!

It would be strange if he didn't break through!

However, Gao Feng, who was opposite the table, did not notice the change in Lin Mo. He continued to drink and sighed with emotion. "You haven't even gone to a martial arts university and haven't cultivated the cultivation techniques and secret skills there, but your combat skills are about to break through to the mid-stage of rank 3! If you enter a university, wouldn't you soar on the spot?"

Gao Feng did not know that Lin Mo had actually taken off long ago.

However, Gao Feng's words really piqued Lin Mo's curiosity. He couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is in the martial arts university?"
