Zhuang Xiaoqin herself does not possess profound insight into the Mysteries Spirit Array like her Master.
Therefore, for Lin Chen to express such profound insight, he must have remarkable comprehension in the Mysteries Spirit Array.
And even if these insights of Lin Chen were gleaned from some ancient text, the volume he read must be an exceptionally profound and extraordinary piece.
In fact, the reason Qiu Yue does not want to admit this fact is that she has believed Lin Chen to be ill-intentioned ever since she first met him.
Therefore, in her eyes, Lin Chen is merely a flirtatious rogue, leading her to unwillingly admit Lin Chen as a remarkable figure.
Actually, Qiu Yue, in considering what Lin Chen had just described, can see that he is likely not as unscrupulous as she claims.
For Lin Chen to articulate such insights is itself a remarkable feat.
Yet Qiu Yue, unwilling to recognize Lin Chen, angrily refutes him entirely.
"Haha, boy, you have no skill but dare to emulate others in forcing yourself into the spotlight; how utterly ridiculous."
The plump fellow turned to look at Lin Chen and spoke coldly.
Earlier, after the plump fellow stood up to express his views, he was mercilessly ridiculed by those around him.
However, when Lin Chen stood up, it left the surrounding people utterly amazed.
Although people now suspect Lin Chen might have taken his insights from a book, Lin Chen's actions stole his thunder, and the contrast caused his prestige to plummet.
Therefore, at this moment, as Lin Chen faces merciless ridicule from those around him, the plump fellow does not forget to stomp on Lin Chen.
The plump fellow has another motive for doing so: he hopes to attract others' fire towards Lin Chen, thus having his own actions quickly forgotten.
Watching the plump fellow's smug, mocking demeanor, Lin Chen smirked coldly, ignoring him.
In Lin Chen's mind, the plump fellow is already one of the fat sheep he has set his sights on.
For now, let this plump fellow bask in arrogance a little longer.
Buzz—
Yet as everyone continued to mock Lin Chen during the lecture, a strong and mysterious aura suddenly spread throughout the classroom.
Feeling this aura, they immediately turned their heads towards the podium.
There, Zhuang Xiaoqin opened her eyes, a mystical rune flashing within her gaze. Witnessing this, Qiu Yue was greatly astonished.
As Zhuang Xiaoqin's junior, she is familiar with her condition.
Her senior's realm in Spiritual Formation has seen no breakthrough for three to four years, facing a bottleneck that requires an opportunity for progress.
Despite years of tireless study, her senior's Mysteries in Spiritual Formation showed no improvement.
Yet now, her senior has actually broken through.
Qiu Yue realized this breakthrough was undoubtedly due to Lin Chen's words earlier.
Her senior's mastery had already reached the initial realm of the Seventh Rank in Spiritual Formation.
A Formation Master of this rank is incredibly rare within the Cloud Dragon Kingdom.
Thus, achieving a breakthrough in such mastery is no trivial matter.
Her Master once said that a breakthrough for Zhuang Xiaoqin would be a fortunate occurrence within a century.
However, Lin Chen's words have unexpectedly prompted Zhuang Xiaoqin to achieve what she might have in a hundred years.
The other disciples in the classroom, though unsure of what transpired, could see that Zhuang Xiaoqin seemed to have achieved a breakthrough.
At this moment, after opening her eyes, Zhuang Xiaoqin walked straight towards Lin Chen.
Seeing this, everyone was puzzled and filled with doubt.
Could it be Zhuang Xiaoqin also disapproves of Lin Chen's actions and plans to punish him personally?
After all, as a new disciple, this was Lin Chen's first lesson here, and he caused such a disturbance.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but get excited, as they relished the idea of Lin Chen being publicly humiliated.
"Young Master's earlier discourse enlightened me greatly; allow me to offer my bow to you."
Approaching Lin Chen, Zhuang Xiaoqin surprisingly did not proceed to punish but offered a fist salute and bowed to him.
"What!?"
Witnessing this scene, the students were astounded, their eyes nearly popping out.
Seeing Zhuang Xiaoqin bowing to Lin Chen, they thought their eyes deceived them.
Instantly rubbing their eyes and looking again, the scene remained unchanged.
The crowd couldn't accept what they saw; their goddess, highly revered lecturer, now referring to herself in front of Lin Chen, who moments ago was their ridiculed target.
Recall that they had just mocked Lin Chen, yet now Zhuang Xiaoqin's actions served as an indirect slap to their faces.
Zhuang Xiaoqin's conduct proved that Lin Chen's words earlier were all true.
Not only were his words true, they assisted Zhuang Xiaoqin in her breakthrough.
Thereupon, everyone didn't know what to do, feeling a burning humiliation.
For Lin Chen truly understood the Way of the Spirit Arrays, whereas their mocking highlighted their ignorance.
The more they ridiculed Lin Chen earlier, the more ashamed they felt now.
Especially Qiu Yue and Tan Yingping, the ones initially questioning Lin Chen—they led the others into joining their mockery.
Tan Yingping looked at Lin Chen, his face turning increasingly sullen.
Not only did Lin Chen steal his thunder today, but he also branded him as ignorant.
Should this spread, he feared becoming a laughingstock.
Tan Yingping clenched his fist, a fleeting killing intent in his eyes, knowing killing is prohibited within Yunlong Heavenly Palace.
However, Tan Yingping was not about to let Lin Chen off so easily.
As for Zhuang Xiaoqin, Tan Yingping naturally dared harbour no resentment, as a Seventh Rank Formation Master was not someone he, or even the Tan Family, would offend.
