I Have Countless Clones-Chapter 11

Playboy

After class, it took Lin Shen quite some effort to deal with the students gathering around him to ask questions.

When the crowd finally dispersed, there was already a layer of sweat on his forehead, which showed how much effort he had put in.

Lin Shen suddenly missed his past self. Other than having a good relationship with Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan, he didn’t have much of a presence in the class, nor did he need to deal with people he wasn’t familiar with.

“Lin Shen, have you been enlightened recently or something? How did you make such rapid progress?”

At some point, Zheng Hongsheng came over and sized Lin Shen up as if he was looking at an unbelievable existence.

Beside him, Xu Yuan had the same expression.

They had thought they would catch up with Lin Shen as long as they worked harder. Now, it seemed that they had been too optimistic.

With Lin Shen’s speed, they couldn’t catch up no matter how hard they tried!

Having no other choice, Lin Shen had to repeat the reason he had just given. Finally, his two friends accepted this explanation and didn’t ask further.

Lin Shen took the opportunity to change the topic and asked Xu Yuan, “Where’s your date? Has she become your girlfriend?”

As expected, Xu Yuan’s attention was diverted. He nodded shyly.

Zheng Hongsheng threw shoulder around Xu Yuan’s and chuckled. “When are you going to introduce her to us?”

“Soon.” Xu Yuan chuckled. “We’ll go karaoke then, my treat!”

“Then it’s a deal!”

…

[Clone 3]

[Talent: Pure Yang Body]

[Stage: Qi Transformation Level 5, 2%]

[Current Cultivation: Blazing Sun Palm (Beginner 77%+10%)]

After returning to the apartment, Lin Shen immediately checked the cultivation progress of Clone 3, and the results satisfied him.

It had increased his progress by 10% in a day!

At this speed, by this time tomorrow, his Blazing Sun Palm would reach Proficient.

“Pure Yang Body is so impressive!”

After a moment of joy, Lin Shen came back to his senses and thought about the cultivation method to restrain his aura.

Compared to ordinary martial arts cultivation techniques, those that could restrain one’s aura were hard to come by, but they did exist.

However, Lin Shen had very little opportunity to find one.

He thought for a long time and realized the only way he could obtain this kind of technique was through the True Martial Pavilion.

The True Martial Pavilion was a shop in Dragonside City that specialized in selling all kinds of martial arts cultivation techniques. It was also the only business organization designated by the three sects that could legally sell them.

The Origin Breathing Technique and Blazing Sun Palm that Lin Shen cultivated were both purchased from the True Martial Pavilion.

Other than the True Martial Pavilion, any other shops that dared to openly sell martial cultivation techniques would be banned and punished by the Three Sect Prefecture.

However, other than the Origin Breathing Technique and the three fundamental cultivation techniques, the other cultivation techniques sold in the True Martial Pavilion were incredibly expensive. They could easily cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of spirit coins, if not millions. It was far from what Lin Shen could afford.

“The price of a cultivation technique that can restrain one’s aura will only be more expensive than ordinary ones. With my current financial resources, I can’t afford it at all.”

Shaking his head, Lin Shen temporarily put this matter aside and summoned the interface to look at the bottom.

[Clone 4]

[Condensing, current progress: 5%]

“It’ll take 20 days to create it at 5% a day.”

Lin Shen grew excited.

In another 19 days, he would have another clone. After that, his cultivation speed would increase to a new level.

It was worth mentioning that Lin Shen had experimented with the range of the clones’ movements.

As expected, after breaking through to the fifth level, the zero consumption distance had been extended to 50m.

A single clone could already move around 300m away for half a minute.

“That’s good. At least in the vicinity of the apartment building, the clone can materialize at will!”

…

In the combat room in the Calm Sun Martial Arts School.

Yang Zhongyi struck Lin Shen’s left shoulder with a slap, and the strengthened ceramic plate shattered with a bang. However, Lin Shen only swayed slightly before he quickly adjusted himself. He put both arms in front of him to parry the attack and assumed a defensive posture.

“What?”

Yang Zhongyi looked at him in surprise and said uncertainty,

“You seem to have become much stronger.”

Many people already knew about the breakthrough, and Lin Shen didn’t intend to hide it. Hearing this, he admitted frankly, “I just broke through to the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage yesterday.”

Yang Zhongyi raised his eyebrows.

He didn’t know that Lin Shen had just broken through to the fourth level the week before, so he wasn’t very surprised. Instead, he laughed loudly.

“That’s good. This way, you can last longer. Why don’t we extend our training time to two hours from today?”

Lin Shen was slightly stunned. Then, he nodded without hesitation.

“No problem!”

...

If he could earn more money, he wouldn’t say no to that.

In any case, with the talent of Perseverance, he could recover quickly, no matter how painful or tiring he was

Once they reached an agreement, the training continued.

In the corridor outside the combat room, Gao Jun looked at Lin Shen, who was already at ease under Yang Zhongyi’s fierce attack, and sighed inwardly.

“This kid is great. It hasn’t been long, but he’s already a good training partner. Kong Hong is quite good at teaching students.”

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Before leaving, Yang Zhongyi casually said to Lin Shen, “By the way, I heard that there had been cultivator criminals appearing in the eastern districts recently. You live there, right? Be careful on your way back.”

Lin Shen paused in the middle of removing the protective gear. He recalled the yellow-scarved warrior he had met the week before, and his heart skipped a beat.

However, he quickly came back to his senses and smiled at Yang Zhongyi.

“I see. Thank you for the heads up!”

]Yang Zhongyi laughed heartily, waved his hand, and left the room.

...

During this period of time, Lin Shen and Yang Zhongyi had become much closer. Occasionally, they could even talk and laugh.

Unlike the disciples of influential families Lin Shen had seen before, Yang Zhongyi wasn’t only friendly to Lin Shen, but he was also approachable to the others in Calm Sun Martial Arts School. He was playful and easygoing, and everyone had a good impression of him.

Other than being a frivolous guy that liked to flirt with the receptionists, he didn’t have other unpleasant shortcomings.

Even his frivolity wasn’t seen as a flaw. At least the receptionists he flirted with didn’t resist. Instead, they rather enjoyed it.

Lin Shen had seen them smile at Yang Zhongyi several times.

Yang was a powerful and good-looking playboy.

This was Lin Shen’s impression of Yang Zhongyi.

The only thing that puzzled him was that as a disciple of an influential family, Yang Zhongyi could have hired an expert to be his training partner at home. There was no need for him to come to Calm Sun Martial Arts School every day.

However, it was Yang Zhongyi’s private matter. Although Lin Shen was puzzled, he didn’t have the intention to run any reckless investigation.

After walking out of Calm Sun Martial Arts School, Lin Shen walked towards the apartment.

When he passed by the shop selling spirit beast meat, he went in to buy white-headed pork as usual.

As his cultivation level rose, Lin Shen ate much more, and his digestive ability greatly increased, far exceeding what he had before.

Half a kilo of spirit beast meat a day was far from the maximum amount that Lin Shen and his two clones could absorb, not to mention that he had a new clone now.

However, because he was short of money, Lin Shen could only buy half a kilo a day.

Now that his salary as a training partner had doubled, he was much richer. He didn’t hesitate to double his daily portion of spirit beast meat.

Lin Shen made money just to buy resources to improve his cultivation. He wouldn’t be stingy in this aspect.

On the way back, Lin Shen looked at the bag of spirit beast meat in his hand and was especially happy.

However, on his way home, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly looked around.

He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but at that moment, he seemed to feel a malicious gaze on him.

However, after looking around, he didn’t find anything unusual.

When he focused again, the strange feeling of being stared at had already disappeared.

“Did I imagine it?”

Lin Shen frowned slightly and kept walking.

That strange never returned until he reached his apartment.

Lin Shen laughed at himself. He took out his key, opened the door, and walked in.
