125: Chapter 125 Buying Equipment
"One hundred thousand yuan, bought a supreme divine ability, plus a cosmic-level inheritance clue."
Su Yu rubbed his chin.
"This was quite a steal."
However, that golden light spot was ridiculously far from the galaxy where Earth is located. With his current strength, it was simply impossible to traverse the universe to find it.
"Note it down for now."
"Wait until my strength is sufficient in the future, then go explore it."
Su Yu solemnly put the tile into his storage ring.
Just at this moment, ding-dong. The apartment doorbell rang right on time.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
Lin Xiaoxiao had arrived.
Su Yu stood up.
The vast ocean-like Dark Gold Divine Blood within his body instantly receded completely.
His aura fell back to the Martial Master level once again.
Click.
The door opened.
Lin Xiaoxiao stood outside, dressed in a clean and crisp black tight-fitting training suit.
A high ponytail.
Her fair cheeks carried an undisguised sense of excitement and pride.
"Teacher Su, good evening!"
Lin Xiaoxiao held her hands behind her back, playfully blinking her eyes.
Su Yu stepped aside.
"Come in."
"Head to the training room."
The two went one after the other to the underground training room.
As soon as they stood still, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to grab the Steel Spear from the wall.
"Su Yu, don't say anything yet!"
"Watch closely!"
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath.
Her originally playful expression instantly became extremely serious.
She bent her knees slightly and exerted force from her waist.
Without the slightest hesitation, she thrust the spear out!
Whoosh!
The air was instantly torn apart!
But unlike last night, this time, on the tip of the Steel Spear, a faint, yet exceptionally pure, transparent edge had faintly emerged!
Although it lasted only for a brief moment, it caused the destructive power of this strike to more than double!
"How was it?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao retracted the spear and stood still, panting.
Her bright, large eyes were filled with the words "Quick, praise me."
A trace of surprise flashed in Su Yu's eyes.
Spear Intent!
Although it was still extremely immature and couldn't even be considered to have reached the threshold of Micro-Perception, it was indeed the embryonic form of Spear Intent!
You must know, even among those talented seniors in their fourth year at Capital Martial Arts University, very few could touch the threshold of Spear Intent!
How long had Lin Xiaoxiao been practicing?
Apart from the slight guidance of his will last night, how could she have comprehended it on her own so quickly?
"Not bad."
Su Yu did not hold back his praise.
"Excellent talent."
"You have already touched the threshold of Spear Intent."
Hearing Su Yu's praise, the corners of Lin Xiaoxiao's mouth instantly curled up wildly.
She felt as if her heart was as sweet as having eaten honey, so happy she was about to fly.
Being able to receive recognition from this "peerless genius" Su Yu made her even happier than her dad depositing hundreds of millions into her card!
"Of course!"
Lin Xiaoxiao raised her chin triumphantly and clenched her small fist.
"My talent is not going to be any weaker than yours!"
"You just wait!"
"Sooner or later, I will surpass you!"
The young girl's vow was crisp and stubborn.
It carried a hint of the spoiled air peculiar to a young lady, yet it also revealed incomparable sincerity.
Su Yu looked at her serious appearance and just smiled, without refuting her.
"Good."
"I will wait for the day you surpass me."
"But for now, let's begin today's training."
Su Yu walked forward, his voice returning to a stern tone.
"The force in that strike just now was still a bit scattered."
"The edge of the spear tip didn't fully converge."
"Again."
Lin Xiaoxiao immediately put away her pride and obediently got into position.
The spear thrust out again.
Su Yu stood by her side, his gaze sharp as an eagle.
"Lower your shoulders."
"Don't let your wrists shake."
Su Yu reached out his hand.
Just like last night, he placed it directly on the back of Lin Xiaoxiao's hand holding the spear.
The warm sensation came again.
Lin Xiaoxiao's body trembled slightly, beyond her control.
The distance between them was mere inches.
Su Yu's deep profile and cold, hard jawline exuded a lethal attraction under the bright lights.
Lin Xiaoxiao's heartbeat began to accelerate once again.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
In the training room, besides the sound of the spear breaking through the air, it seemed only the sound of her drum-like heartbeat remained.
An ambiguous atmosphere quietly permeated the air.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced slightly to the side, secretly looking at Su Yu.
Suddenly, she froze.
A woman's intuition is always astonishingly keen.
Although Su Yu's aura was perfectly concealed, the moment their skin touched, Lin Xiaoxiao still faintly sensed a trace of a subtle abnormality.
Su Yu... seemed to have become stronger?
That feeling was like facing an unfathomable abyss.
It seemed calm, but in reality, it contained terrifying power capable of devouring everything!
"How on earth does he cultivate?"
Lin Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes widened slightly.
Could it be that his blood vitality value had broken through again?
1200? 1500? Or even... 2000?!
Lin Xiaoxiao bit her lower lip, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly rose in her heart.
She had only just touched the threshold of Spear Intent and was feeling smug, but Su Yu's back seemed to be moving further and further away from her!
No! Absolutely cannot be left behind by him!
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the romantic thoughts in her heart.
She concentrated all her attention on the spear in her hand.
"Kill!"
She let out a delicate shout, and following Su Yu's guidance, she fiercely thrust the spear out!
This strike... its edge was even sharper!
They practiced for a full two hours.
Lin Xiaoxiao was so tired that she collapsed onto the sofa, her whole body soaked in sweat, outlining her youthful and graceful curves.
She panted heavily, lacking even the strength to move a finger.
Su Yu handed her a bottle of mineral water.
"That's it for today."
"Great progress."
Lin Xiaoxiao took the water bottle and gulped down half of it.
Only then did she catch her breath.
She wiped the sweat off her face with a towel, looked up, and gazed at Su Yu.
"Su Yu."
"Hmm?"
"Tomorrow... are you free?"
Lin Xiaoxiao's voice suddenly became somewhat nervous.
She twisted the towel with both hands, her eyes avoiding his.
"Next month is the National Martial Arts University Exchange Tournament."
"My dad gave me some money to go pick out a better set of equipment."
"Could you... accompany me?"
Accompany a girl shopping for equipment?
Su Yu frowned imperceptibly.
He instinctively wanted to refuse.
With this time, it would be better to spend it in the training room becoming more familiar with the newly comprehended Great Wilderness Star-Fall Dharma Aspect, or studying that cosmic star map.
But, looking at Lin Xiaoxiao's bright eyes that were full of expectation and a hint of nervousness, and thinking back to the scene where she had unhesitatingly handed him precious cultivation resources, Su Yu was silent for a moment.
Buying equipment.
Mecha? Battle armor?
He had just deduced the Records of Celestial Craftsmanship to the Great Perfection level.
He was just worrying about not having the opportunity to conduct field research on the materials and forging techniques on the market.
Accompanying her to take a look didn't seem like a complete waste of time.
Coincidentally, his forging skills might just come in handy.
Thinking of this, Su Yu nodded.
"Fine."
"I will accompany you tomorrow."
Hearing this affirmative reply, Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes instantly lit up like two brilliant stars.
"Really?!"
She jumped up from the sofa in excitement and grabbed Su Yu's arm.
"That's great!"
"Then we'll meet at the school gate tomorrow morning at nine!"
"Don't be late!"
After saying this, seemingly afraid that Su Yu might change his mind, Lin Xiaoxiao grabbed her coat and rushed out of the underground training room like a gust of wind.
Watching her retreating figure as she fled in a panic, Su Yu smiled dumbly.
He shook his head and turned back to the center of the training room.
"National Exchange Tournament."
Su Yu whispered to himself.
Then he shook his head.
Inside his body, that one hundred million points of Dark Gold Divine Blood were like a dormant dragon.
In the darkness, it slowly emitted a low roar that shook the heavens and the earth.
