Under the astonished gazes of the others, Jiang Ning withdrew his palm and walked back from under the tree.
The palm strike he had just executed was meant not to damage the tree, so he had slightly used his spiritual power to knock the shuttlecock down.
To him, it was merely an insignificant gesture; had he been serious, with his Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer and Thunder Refining Body Cultivation, a single effortless palm strike could have broken the tree in two.
But that would have been too shocking.
Jiang Ning slowly returned, and only then did the others come to their senses.
Shen Qing'e quickly said, "Jiang Ning, you really got the shuttlecock down."
She was truly grateful. Now, with exams looming, if the shuttlecock hadn't been retrieved, it may well have been lost by the time they finished their exams and came back to deal with it.
Moreover, compared to Yu Wen's and Zhang Chi's methods, Jiang Ning had made it look much too easy, as if he hadn't exerted himself at all.
