257: After nine days of seclusion, the increase was twenty-eight times!

“The reason I drove these old men away today wasn't impulse, but to establish my authority!”

“That Tang Feifang fears Minister Li and the crew; at least he wouldn't dare to kill me openly!”

“However, ultimately, everything depends on one's own strength!”

“Go into seclusion and cultivate!”

As soon as Guo Feng entered the Preaching Palace, he began his seclusion within it.

...

Nine days later!

“The Great Dao Heart Refining Art has reached the second layer, with 1050 divine thoughts, allowing 20 divine thoughts to be integrated, boosting skills by a maximum of 12 times!”

“Double Thunderstrike Slash, with a 12-time boost, and the double blade light has reached fifty percent of its power!”

“Plus the Mystic Dragon Spirit Blade's enhancement, and the two-time spirit talisman's enhancement!”

“I can now unleash a 28-time boost!”

“Damn it, Tang Feifang, try provoking me again! I'll cut through your barrier in a few slashes!”

“Panel!”

Guo Feng's thought moved, and he summoned his panel.

Host: Guo Feng.

Exclusive Level: 54.

Assets: 317,560,000 (currently increasing...)

Asset Boost: 230

Expenditure: 85,102 / 171,000,000.

Physical Strength: 33,315.05.

“Over 300 million in assets? That's right, I've been in seclusion for nine days now!”

“This is my longest seclusion!”

“After this seclusion, my strength has greatly increased!”

“The burst amplification has increased by nearly ten times!”

“First, I'll go out and have a meal with Dean Yu and the crew to understand their plans for the academy.”

“Then, I'll go out for two things: one is to transfer money to upgrade.”

“The other is to ask General Sima if the law anchoring spiritual energy primordial stones has been passed, as ten days are almost up.”

“Furthermore, I need him to push for the quick launch of satellites in Qingcheng Spirit Realm to establish a signal connection between the spirit realm and Earth.”

“Otherwise, I'd have to go out every time to upgrade, which is too troublesome!”

Having made his plans, Guo Feng used the Mystic Dragon Spirit Robe's array function to cleanse his entire body.

Then he walked outside.

Soon after, he arrived outside and took out hotpot ingredients from his spatial storage.

With the help of Luo Juan, Liu Qiang, Meng Lilian, and others, they prepared two tables of hotpot!

Afterward, Liu Qiang and the crew went to invite Dean Yu and other academy leaders, along with some other level 50-plus powerhouses.

While eating, they discussed the academy's recent plans.

It turned out that under Dean Yu's leadership, the academy was managed in a sect-like manner.

Each dean was equivalent to an elder of a sect.

Every student of the academy was a disciple under an elder's command.

The academy used a credit system to assign tasks, assess students, and exchange resources.

Guo Feng listened and understood that his foundation was truly beginning to take shape!

He then stood up and raised his cup: “To all deans and mentors, I, Guo Feng, hereby declare that as long as I am here for one day, everyone in our school will be under my protection! I will also seek benefits for our school!”

“Soon, I will fully open the various functional halls of Tianqi Sect. The specific rules of use will be jointly formulated by Vice Principal Yu and all deans!”

“To the future of our school, cheers!”

His words were resonant!

“Cheers!”

Everyone responded loudly, very excited.

Everyone drank.

Guo Feng then said to Dean Yu and other school leaders: “I will report this detailed plan to Minister Li Chi when I go out to see General Sima. Don't worry, he will definitely agree!”

“Good!”

Dean Yu nodded vigorously.

He was very pleased that Guo Feng had grown to this extent.

At the same time, he also had a selfish motive.

In the future, he would further integrate the school with Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

Soon, the eating and drinking were finished.

The discussions were also almost complete.

Before leaving, Dean Yu said to Guo Feng: “Guo Feng, be careful when you go out!”

“These past few days, students have seen Tang Feifang and others occasionally come to investigate!”

“It's very likely they're looking for your whereabouts, wanting to seek revenge!”

He earnestly warned, “You'd best bring Qiongqi!”

“Heh.”

Guo Feng chuckled, “Thank you, Dean Yu, for your concern. I've already made my plans!”

He paused, stretched, “If they want to play, I'll play with them!”

After he finished speaking, he saw everyone off.

He then bid farewell to Luo Juan and the crew.

He took the Beast Taming Circle and flew directly out of Tianqi Sect.

As soon as he came out, he sensed Tang Feifang, and smiling, he flew towards him...
