Chapter 131 Breakthrough to Level 40
Chapter 131 Breakthrough to Level 40
Ning Kaiwen turned and left, and nothing else happened after that.
Qian Yuhan glanced at her companion beside her, then smiled at Ouyang Luoxue and said, "Thank you, Luoxue."
Ouyang Luoxue said, "No need to thank me. If I hadn't come to find you and joined this team, they wouldn't have had the chance to talk about you like that—"
Fang Ya then said, "Sister Luo Xue, don't blame yourself. It has nothing to do with you. We've already talked things out properly; they're just being unreasonable. It'll be our turn soon. Let's see what we want to eat—"
……
As Ning Kaiwen left the cafeteria, Ning Kaixuan grabbed his collar and demanded, "Ning Kaiwen, what are you trying to do? What do you mean?! You didn't say you were going to slap me in the face!"
Ning Kaiwen broke free and slowly said, "Fifth brother, there's no other way. We got carried away with the conversation, so this is the only option now—here, take this." He then took out a card from his pocket and continued, "There should be tens of thousands of gold soul coins in this card, here you go."
Upon hearing that there were tens of thousands of gold soul coins, Ning Kaixuan's expression immediately changed, and he beamed with joy. He snatched the card from Ning Kaiwen's hand, afraid that he would regret it and take it back.
"Fourth Brother, I'll help you this time, but is all this just to get you to vent your anger by having me yell at those exchange students? You need to know that I've made a fool of myself in front of Luo Xue. How am I supposed to pursue her now?" Ning Kaixuan took the card, hurriedly put it in his pocket, and then said to Ning Kaiwen.
Ning Kaiwen stepped forward and patted Ning Kaixuan on the shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I'll help you later. Didn't you have something else to do at noon? Go on, then—"
Ning Kaixuan suddenly remembered that she had fallen asleep in class that morning, and her homeroom teacher had asked her to come see her at noon. Ning Kaixuan walked toward the office building with a droopy face.
Watching Ning Kaixuan's retreating figure, Ning Kaiwen sneered, "Idiot, someone like you wants to compete with me for Luo Xue? Ridiculous—she won't be your girlfriend, she'll only be your fourth sister-in-law, hehehe—"
……
After Qian Yuhan and the others finished their meal, they parted ways. The four boys returned to their dormitories to meditate and cultivate, while Fang Ya and Ouyang Luoxue also went back to their luxurious dormitories for a midday rest.
Qian Yuhan had a feeling that he had not completely absorbed the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Blossom that he had absorbed earlier. How could he have absorbed the two most top-grade immortal herbs so quickly?
Mu Chen and the other two have only absorbed one type of immortal herb, and they haven't fully absorbed it yet. Tang Xuan and Tang Chen are now focusing on their cultivation, intending to absorb all of it and prepare to break through to the Soul Sect level.
Mu Chen broke through under immense pressure during yesterday afternoon's battle, and his foundation is still unstable. He is currently consolidating his foundation at this stage.
Tang Xuan and Tang Chen are both highly perceptive, not much less so than Qian Yuhan. Currently, the Heavenly Thunder Devouring Grass and the Strange Treasure Sky-Piercing Chrysanthemum in their bodies still retain the last bit of primal energy of heaven and earth, and they both feel that they are just one step away from breaking through to the Soul Sect.
This morning, I explained the situation to Lei Meng, who was overjoyed and gave the four of them a half-day off, with Qian Yuhan and Mu Chen acting as bodyguards for Tang Xuan and Tang Chen.
……
The afternoon flew by.
Qian Yuhan slowly woke up from her cultivation and looked at Tang Xuan and Tang Chen, who were sitting cross-legged facing each other on the dormitory floor. She encouraged them, "Big brother, second brother, you'll be fine, hang in there!"
Mu Chen woke up at this moment, stretched, and was about to make a groan when Qian Yuhan quickly covered his mouth.
"Waaah—" Mu Chen moved Qian Yuhan's hand away and gave Qian Yuhan a resentful look.
Qian Yuhan smiled and patted Mu Chen on the shoulder, glancing at Tang Xuan and Tang Chen who were still cultivating.
"They're not done yet? It's almost dinnertime, should we wake them up?" Mu Chen asked, puzzled.
Mu Chen was about to go over and wake them up when Qian Yuhan stopped him. "Let's not go yet. I feel like it should be soon. Their auras are gradually getting stronger. This is a critical stage. If we interrupt them, all our efforts will be in vain!"
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Then I'll stay here and protect them. Fourth brother, go and get them some food. They don't look like they'll wake up anytime soon, so if we don't prepare some, they won't have anything to eat when they do wake up."
Qian Yuhan nodded, then put on her school coat and went out. She was just about to check at the side gate of the academy to see if "Snow's" reply had been delivered.
Arriving at the mailbox, she searched it thoroughly but couldn't find it. Qian Yuhan sighed, thinking to herself:
"Oh, it's my fault for not writing back to her these past few days. Does she not know I delivered the letters here? That shouldn't be the case. Didn't Luo Xue say that all students from all the academies leave their letters here? She knows I came here too—oh, she's angry now."
Qian Yuhan searched again, and after confirming that it was not there, she left with regret.
Not long after he left, Zhao Shuo reappeared. "What are you doing here? You've searched everywhere and found nothing. Who are you waiting for a letter from?"
As Zhao Shuo was muttering to himself, he noticed that Qian Yuhan was about to leave his sight, so he quickly chased after her.
Qian Yuhan didn't linger in other parts of the academy. She went to the cafeteria, packed some food, and went back to her dormitory.
Zhao Shuo followed Qian Yuhan the whole time, only leaving after he entered the dormitory...
……
Back in the dormitory, Qian Yuhan saw that Tang Xuan and Tang Chen still showed no signs of waking up, and whispered to Mu Chen, "Third Brother, why don't you eat something first?"
"Hmm, I need to eat something, my stomach's growling, hehe—"
Qian Yuhan smiled and pulled Mu Chen up, then sat down in the seat Mu Chen had been sitting in. After a while, she said to Mu Chen, who was eating:
"Mu Chen, have you noticed? It feels like someone has been following us all day!"
Qian Yuhan frowned slightly and whispered to Mu Chen beside her.
"Following us? Who's following us?"
Mu Chen, carrying his food, shook his head with a puzzled look after listening, indicating that he hadn't noticed anything.
"I always feel like there's a pair of eyes watching us, but every time I suddenly turn around to look, I can't see a ghost at all. It's really strange!"
At that moment, Tang Xuan and Tang Chen, who had been cultivating with their eyes closed, suddenly opened their eyes almost simultaneously, as if they were of one mind, and exhaled a long breath of stale air.
"Haha, great! I've finally broken through to level 40!" Tang Xuan cheered excitedly.
"As long as I obtain a suitable spirit ring, I can officially become a Spirit Master!"
Tang Chen could not hide his joy and said excitedly.
It's important to understand that for these young Soul Masters, each level of Soul Power advancement is an extremely difficult and lengthy process. Now, Mu Chen, Tang Xuan, and Tang Chen have all successfully reached the threshold of level 40, just one step away from their coveted Soul Master realm. How could this not be incredibly exciting?
