I Just Wanted to Teach Cultivation, But Goddesses Keep Coming!

Chapter 272: Chapter 272 An Ant Trying to Trip a Giant, a Maiden Trying to Drain a Dragon, Who Is More Foolish?

Shock and indignation flashed across Yuan Bao’s round face.

But instead of despair, a new expression took shape… a mixture of pity and simmering pride.

He lifted his chin slightly and regarded the passing students with eyes that burned, not with envy, but with judgment.

“You’ve gazed upon the True Dragon and mistaken it for a common earthworm,” he muttered under his breath, low and scornful. “Remember this day. One day, you will regret underestimating me.”

His mind whirred with determination. This slight would not stand.

He would prove, without a doubt, that he could command attention, respect, and admiration even from the most beautiful of women.

Then he looked toward Lin Feng, who was still observing the dispersing students from a distance, posture immaculate and commanding even from afar.

Yuan Bao studied every angle, every subtle movement of his teacher’s stance and the way Lin Feng carried his presence, the calm authority radiating from every inch of him.

Slowly, deliberately, Yuan Bao adjusted himself.

Back straight, shoulders squared, chin raised, eyes focused forward.

He copied the stance perfectly, mimicking the quiet power that Lin Feng projected.

He held the pose for a long moment, imagining the day when he too would command such pure adoration, imagining a scene where women would vie for his attention with the same fervor that they gave his teacher.

“The fool looks at the moon and waits for it to fall into his lap. The Cultivator builds a ladder, one rung at a time, until the moon is beneath his feet.” Yuan Bao muttered a line from a book he’d read, hoping it would make him look more impressive in the eyes of women.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng spoke with Wang Yuyan and Qiao Mei, who had requested a few days off from class to attempt a breakthrough later that day.

Lin Feng, of course, understood and offered them his encouragement and best wishes.

“Don’t be hasty, and keep the trust in your heart alive,” Lin Feng advised calmly. “I know that both of you will achieve successful breakthroughs. I’ve trained you well and witnessed your progress firsthand. I’ll be waiting here for your good news.”

“Thank you, Mentor Lin Feng! We won’t fail you!” Wang Yuyan and Qiao Mei replied in unison, their voices full of determination.

With Lin Feng’s blessing and words of confidence, they felt completely assured that they would reach the next realm.

After all, they knew the dangers of breakthroughs all too well… many had perished in the attempt.

The process was not just challenging. It was life-threatening, a true test of skill, resolve, and luck.

But with Lin Feng’s guidance behind them, doubt found no place in their hearts.

They wandered off, and Su Wanwan kept muttering to herself as she followed.

“So many beautiful big sisters! Someday Wanwan will be big and beautiful too! Yes!” she said, nodding enthusiastically.

Then, with a playful grin, she began mimicking the elegant way the pretty women had walked, exaggerating their swaying steps and delicate gestures.

She stumbled a few times, and both Chu Jiangyue and Qiao Mei couldn’t help but smile at her antics, gently correcting her clumsy imitations as they still guided the little girl along.

Even Lin Feng couldn’t suppress a smile at the scene.

He stood quietly for a moment, observing the interactions, while Li Zhiyan remained composed, silently watching from behind him.

After another minute, Ning Xi appeared. Her presence immediately drew attention.

“Mentor Lin Feng!” she greeted brightly, striding forward with confidence.

Her hips swayed naturally, accentuated by the form-fitting, alluring sexy dress that highlighted her perfect figure.

Every step radiated poise and open seduction.

Her mind, however, was far from calm.

Using her spiritual sense last night, she had discovered that not only had Li Zhiyan entered Lin Feng’s room, but Tang Aining had as well and both of them left a lingering pressure on her heart.

And beyond that, there were practically thousands of beautiful women who became his students in hope to capture his attention.

Ning Xi’s chest tightened at the thought, but she refused to falter.

She straightened her posture, her eyes glinting with determination.

“I must not hesitate. I must not be slow,” she vowed silently.

No matter what it took, she would secure her place in Lin Feng’s life by skill, by cunning, or by sheer force of will.

Lin Feng almost whistled at how stunning Ning Xi looked today, though he kept his expression perfectly unreadable.

Every movement she made was graceful, every glance effortless, and yet he remained calm, a mask of composure hiding the flicker of admiration in his eyes.

They waited for a few more minutes, but the person they were expecting never appeared.

The classroom felt unusually quiet afterwards.

Finally, Lin Feng activated his divine sense, extending it outward like a net.

The moment his perception touched the distant aura of Teacher Ye Jian, the pieces fell into place.

She had left abruptly yesterday, summoned by the clan patriarch for reasons unknown to most.

Three breaths later, Lin Feng had absorbed the full details of what had transpired.

It was as if the web of schemes surrounding him had momentarily revealed itself in a single, clear image.

“Interesting,” he murmured, a faint, almost imperceptible smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

He had been living peacefully, content with the calm rhythm of his days, yet here were people plotting behind his back.

Clearly, they were tired of life already, desperate to test their limits against someone they had underestimated.

And Lin Feng? He would gladly oblige.

“Perhaps face slapping and courting death is the greatest form of entertainment in this cultivation world,” Lin Feng mused to himself, a faint smirk tugging at his lips. “I can’t say I dislike it either.”

With that thought, he led his group toward the dining hall, calm and unhurried.

Deep down, he already knew that those very people, arrogant, reckless, and full of schemes, would come knocking at his door sooner or later.
