Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 676 - 0678: Everyone Has Weaknesses

Chu Feng had prepared for the worst possible outcome long ago. Ever since he started strategizing, he had designed everything with the worst-case scenario in mind.

Fighting was something Chu Feng had never been afraid of.

However, this was his first time seriously facing off against an Earth Level Expert.

The previous clash at Dragon Soul, with Helan Hall, could hardly be counted as a true fight. It was nothing more than a probing, and Chu Feng had won by a trick.

This time against Gu Cong was a head-on confrontation.

Huang Lan and the others very tacitly cleared the area for Chu Feng and Gu Cong.

When Earth Level Experts fight, it’s not a game. Even without participating, just being nearby could result in broken bones and tendons. It’s far too dangerous and not something they should suffer through.

The two also tacitly refrained from attacking, waiting for Huang Lan and the others to withdraw from their vicinity.

Even though they had distanced themselves, neither of them showed any intention to attack.

Gu Cong’s expression was calm. His blue clothing fluttered with the wind, hands clasped behind his back, his eyes slightly squinted, giving off the air of a detached Immortal.

Chu Feng, too, was unusually serious. After all, facing an Earth Level Mid-Stage Expert was no joke, and a careless mistake could cost him his life.

Gu Cong was not the kind to be soft-hearted; if he spotted an opportunity, there would be no such thing as pulling punches.

"You’re just standing there; are you not worried that after they finish fighting, we’ll all gang up on you?" Chu Feng asked.

Gu Cong opened his eyes, looking at Chu Feng and said, "I’m not afraid, because if I really were, you wouldn’t be asking that question."

Pausing for a moment, Gu Cong glanced at the leaders of the fifth and sixth teams and said, "They will surely lose. But likewise, your losses won’t be minor. So the one who doesn’t want to drag out the time is you, as you don’t want your people to suffer too heavily."

Chu Feng scoffed coldly, "They say that with age comes cunning, and you really are cunning, knowing even my thoughts. Those who are neutral and without a stance, if they die, they die. But my people, each one of them is a pillar of the nation’s future, and the loss of even one is a national loss. If they were to be injured, not only would I be heartbroken, but I think many others would be too."

After a pause, Chu Feng’s demeanor shifted back to lightheartedness, "How about we make a deal? What do you think? You, being a Huaxia person, for the peace and safety of Huaxia, why don’t you just surrender voluntarily? After all, as a member of Martial Soul, we can’t really do much to you in the end. That way, the nation’s strength is preserved, and we don’t have to fight to the death. Why not consider such a win-win proposition?"

Gu Cong, hearing Chu Feng’s words, did not argue, not even uttering a single word.

Gu Cong’s composure and tolerance were indeed commendable. No matter what Chu Feng said, he remained as immovable as Mount Tai, not reacting or speaking.

"No wonder you live such a long life; it turns out you speak and do little just like a tortoise, motionless, always a tortoise!" Chu Feng said, taunting Gu Cong.

Chu Feng’s words were as explicit as they could be, but Gu Cong still showed not the slightest reaction, as if Chu Feng was talking about someone else.

"Alright, I can tell now. Even if I spoke until flowers bloomed, you wouldn’t make the first move. But you, old fellow, have the means to do so. You don’t care about their lives, but I can’t do the same. They were brought here by me, and I must take responsibility for their lives," Chu Feng said.

As his words fell, Chu Feng also warned, "Be careful now!"

Though capable of ambushing, Chu Feng wouldn’t stoop to that level, as disdainful as he appeared on the surface, unreliable and shameless.

But when facing major principles, Chu Feng did have his morals, and he wasn’t that despicable either.

In confronting an Earth Level Mid-Stage expert like Gu Cong, Chu Feng had no chance of winning unless he took the initiative and seized the advantage.

However, striking first has its pros and cons. The good part, of course, is getting the upper hand. But the downside is equally dangerous. The earlier you strike, the easier it is for your opponent to spot the weaknesses in your technique. You also risk revealing your trump card to your opponent.

But Chu Feng had no choice now.

"Whoosh!"

Chu Feng’s punch was both fast and ferocious, practically igniting the air around him.

Even Gu Cong had to nod in acknowledgment of such a swift punch.

Aside from speed and power, the punch was almost flawless.

Such perfection in a technique could only be achieved through complete mastery of one’s Cultivation Technique.

But in this world, there’s never really a perfect technique. Even the punch Chu Feng delivered had its imperfections.

Those of lesser Cultivation wouldn’t dare to notice it, and those with higher Cultivation than Chu Feng, too proud, would pay even less heed to such details.

However, Gu Cong was different; not only was his Cultivation high but also crucially, he had the patience to scrutinize and find the flaws in Chu Feng’s punch.

And indeed, he found an imperfection.

With his current Cultivation level, Chu Feng running such a perfect offensive technique was a bit of a struggle.

This caused an issue in the flow of his Spiritual Energy.

Gu Cong took action, choosing one of Chu Feng’s weak points, an acupoint where Spiritual Energy flows were interacting and struck out directly.

Gu Cong’s fingers, like a sword, left the ground, aiming straight at Chu Feng from not more than ceiling height.

Although the height Gu Cong lifted from the ground wasn’t much, for ordinary people, it was beyond comprehension.

Gu Cong’s body truly resembled a sharp sword, aiming directly for Chu Feng’s only weak spot.

Having his weakness targeted, Chu Feng had no choice but to change his offensive strategy.

Otherwise, even if he hit Gu Cong, Gu Cong could also take his life.

Trading his own life for a severe injury on Gu Cong was clearly a bad deal.

Chu Feng switched from offense to defense, using his arms to protect his vital acupoints, and with a touch on the ground, he swiftly retreated backward.

Seizing weakness must not be taken lightly. Having forced Chu Feng back, what Gu Cong needed to do now was to take advantage of this opportunity to launch his series of deadly Techniques.

Just as they say, ’strike while the iron is hot,’ seizing the opponent’s weakness is the same. You have to proceed carefully to ultimately bring down Chu Feng.
