30: Chapter 30 The Reactions of the Prodigies
When the two emerged from the tunnel and encountered Xiao Tian, who was sitting to the side waiting, Xiao Tian's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
How long has it been since they last met?
Just a moment ago, Senior Brother Su's True Qi was weak, but now, his True Qi was profound, faintly circulating on its own.
His cultivation level was so deep that even he couldn't discern it!
Could there really be a tremendous Opportunity inside that coffin lid?
This Opportunity is too great, right? Did it make Senior Brother Su's cultivation skyrocket like a rocket?
Emperor Xiao Tian, who was somewhat questioning his life, couldn't help but lower his head and ponder: was his moral standard too high?
With the self-doubting Xiao Tian and the high-spirited Ling Yao, Su Yi felt exceptionally high-spirited.
Su Yi, now at the 8th Level of Qi Refining, completely suppressed all the Children of Destiny in the small courtyard!
Even within the Outer Sect, he could be considered high-end talent!
After completing the Sect mission, three Low-Grade Spirit Stones, one for each, Emperor Xiao Tian, who had contributed the most, held his Low-Grade Spirit Stone and questioned life even more.
Returning to the small courtyard, when Su Yi faced the others there, a feeling of arrogance suddenly welled up in his heart!
"Name: Su Yi"
"Rank: 8 (0/9000)"
"Bone Structure: 2 (Water)"
"Spiritual Power: 4"
"Physique: 4"
"Comprehension Ability: 6"
"Spirit Soul: 6"
"Talent: Born Alluring Talent (Red)"
"Cultivation Technique: Luoxia Qi Refining Technique Beginner (Blue)"
"Magic Treasure: None"
Tell me, what is a Prodigy?!
Who is the true Prodigy?
In this courtyard full of future big shots, the highest is currently only Gu Wanquan at the 5th Level of Qi Refining!
And I, Su Yi, have advanced five levels in a row, reaching the 8th Level of Qi Refining!
Who dares to call themselves a Prodigy, who dares to call themselves the protagonist?
Who else is there in front of me, Su Yi?
When facing the crowd of Children of Destiny who were listening in utter astonishment as Ling Yao embellished the thrilling dangers of the Opportunity.
The gazes they directed at Su Yi now held a hint of admiration and wariness!
Breaking through five levels in a row, even they couldn't do it!
And Xiao Tian, holding his rice bowl, was still vexed about his overly high moral standard!
Otherwise, he would have had a part in the bragging!
Hearing the voices outside, Su Yi, holding a spatula in the kitchen, couldn't help but straighten his back even more.
Although in a few days, this group of monsters in the courtyard would quickly catch up to him.
But at this very moment, Su Yi stood out like a crane among chickens among this group of Prodigies!
Enjoy it while it lasts, show off while you can!
If a person doesn't show off, what's the difference between them and a salted fish?
For this, Su Yi stewed a whole pot of pork knuckle and pork belly to properly reward Ling Yao, the koi fish who contributed the most today!
Watching Ling Yao stuffing her mouth until it was bulging, the few Prodigies sitting around the stone table felt like their food tasted like wax.
Excluding Gu Wanquan who was still in seclusion, the most restless among them were Yin Chaoge and Shi Buran.
Yin Chaoge, who was called a peerless Prodigy encountered once in a century no matter the time or place, was unwilling to accept this.
At this moment, the arrogant him faced Su Yi, who was already at the 8th Level of Qi Refining, and even felt that the other could kill him in seconds.
Clearly, in the morning, Su Yi was not as good as him, only at the 3rd Level of Qi Refining!
Thinking of Gu Wanquan, who was currently in seclusion in his room comprehending the Dao of the Sword.
Yin Chaoge's arrogant heart completely broke down at this moment!
It was one thing for a hypocritical smiling tiger to be stronger than him!
Why could he, Su Yi, also be stronger than me, Yin Chaoge?
Just because he, Su Yi, looks good?
Looking at Su Yi, who was tucking his sleeves and looking dotingly at Ling Yao, Yin Chaoge's cold heart panicked for no reason.
Those memories he tried so hard to forget, as well as the feeling of heat from when they were in the same room, suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Yin Chaoge's heart tightened for no reason; he gritted his teeth, stood up, and walked out of the small courtyard with his saber on his back.
Now being surpassed by others one after another, Yin Chaoge felt unprecedented frustration!
Not to mention Gu Wanquan who was still in seclusion; when Gu Wanquan came out of seclusion, his strength would definitely improve significantly!
He was still here thinking about useless things; as expected, he was just a useless piece of trash!
From today on, he would work ten times, or even a hundred times harder; he, Yin Chaoge, must surpass Su Yi and Gu Wanquan and become the most dazzling existence!
The more arrogant a person is, the less they can accept being inferior to others; at this moment, Yin Chaoge, who had fallen into a lack of confidence in his own strength, urgently wanted to prove himself.
If Su Yi knew what Yin Chaoge was thinking at this moment, he would most likely sigh.
Kid, these few years are not your version yet. After the Sect is destroyed, after you take the blame and betray to the Demon Sect, that will be your period of explosive strength.
When Yin Chaoge becomes the Demon Venerable and wields the Heaven Demon Great Method, no one will be able to withstand two moves under Yin Chaoge's desperate Saber Qi!
That's why there is the playful nickname of the 'Mute Demon Venerable who is still trying hard'!
Except for one person, and that is Gu Wanquan!
But if Yin Chaoge knew that even at the end of the story, bearing the injustice of the Sect's destruction, sacrificing his life and exhausting his luck, he still couldn't defeat that black sesame dumpling.
With Yin Chaoge's arrogant personality, would he scream out in grief and rage: "Since Gu exists, why must Yin exist!" and then commit suicide with his saber?
No way, kid, your version's power peak hasn't come yet...
Of course, it would be useless even if it came!
And the one with the most complex state of mind on the side was Shi Buran, whose gaze towards Su Yi was full of doubt and confusion.
Once, on the flying boat, when everyone was waiting for Su Yi, Gu Wanquan asked him to look for Su Yi.
When he found the restroom, he originally wanted to go in and check, but heard Su Yi's wailing like a wounded little beast.
The voice was shrill and painful, yet he was trying his best to suppress his voice, as if afraid of being heard by others.
Enduring such great pain, yet hiding in a corner to bear it alone; this character made Shi Buran feel respect.
Shi Buran stopped at the restroom door and took the initiative to guard the door for Su Yi, not letting others disturb him.
When Su Yi came out of the restroom, his lively words, matched with those peach blossom eyes that seemed to ripple with spring light, and that faint, elusive fragrance.
Made Shi Buran develop a great interest in Su Yi.
What exactly has such a complex person experienced?
So, when Shi Buran mistakenly thought that after Su Yi embarked on cultivation, he was still trapped in romance, that was why Shi Buran couldn't help but speak up to remind him.
Romance is ultimately just a dream; don't waste your talent and the pain you've endured in vain.
But his well-intentioned reminder was brushed off by Su Yi with a joke.
This made Shi Buran think for a time that Su Yi was just a Mortal, with no heart for the Dao at all!
But hearing from Ling Yao today that Su Yi, at the critical moment of Ling Yao's crisis, broke through five levels in a row and took action to suppress the demons, Shi Buran felt the other person had become mysterious again!
Shouldn't a cultivator abandon love and focus solely on pursuing the Dao?
Or is it that only by tempering the heart in the Mortal World can one wash away the worldly dust and directly question the true heart?
Shi Buran put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up, and followed Yin Chaoge's footsteps out of the small courtyard.
He needed to think carefully about whether the things he had once insisted were right were actually wrong!
And the long-legged girl listened to the adventure recounted by Ling Yao, occasionally exclaiming in admiration, and her gaze towards Su Yi also carried a hint of curiosity.
Clearly having a cold and aloof face, yet carrying a naive and silly look.
When Xiao Tian finished chewing the bone marrow from the pork knuckle bone, put away his grief and indignation, and decided to go Cultivate properly.
And Ling Yao went back to her room early to count the Spirit Stones she had gained today.
At this moment, only Su Yi and Wen Daoyi were left at the stone table.
"Are you not going to sleep? It's already very late?" Su Yi asked casually while cleaning up the bowls and chopsticks.
"Mm."
Wen Daoyi, who was helping Su Yi clean up the bowls and chopsticks, just lowered her head and gave a soft 'Mm'.
After clearing the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen, Wen Daoyi, who was learning diligently, watched from the side as Su Yi washed the bowls.
After Su Yi had completely wiped the last bowl clean, Wen Daoyi finally couldn't help but ask:
"Senior Brother Su, can one still Cultivate without a Spiritual Root?"
