Chapter 189: Chapter 140: Monster Sword Intent, Jack Clark Blocked (Extra Chapter for Alliance Leader Thirteen)!
Translator: 549690339
“The cultivation package contains resources to help you break through to the Fourth Layer Heaven quickly, as well as a transcendent material for refining transcendent weapons after entering the Fourth Layer.”
“I just didn’t expect you to break through so quickly…”
When they came back earlier, Lori Parma had asked Jack Clark about when he roughly planned to break through.
Only when Jack said that he estimated it would take about two months to break through the Fourth Layer Heaven did Lori think about the timing, and submitted an application for an additional resource package.
By the time the semester starts, these resources would be approved and help Jack break through faster, and immediately after breaking through, he would be able to refine his own transcendent weapon.
Lori Parma just finished speaking when Jack Clark couldn’t help but be surprised, “That much?”
No need to mention the Sumeru Bracelet, it’s worth 500 contribution points each and requires high authority, while the other cultivation package is also worth more than 400 contribution points.
Even a slightly less valuable cultivation package would be worth almost as much as what Jack earned from the cleaning mission this time.
Sylvia Lyons shook her head: “That’s why it wasn’t approved.”
“That much?”
Lori Parma was somewhat unconvinced, “Then why did the applications submitted by Vernon Leinster for Jane Aiken and Elijiah Raven for Howard Lee get approved? Their numbers are also similar.”
“It’s not the same.”
Sylvia Lyons said indifferently, “Jane Aiken not only has a cultivation talent but also demonstrated her outstanding ‘enlightenment’ during the trials. She cultivated the Sword Intent during the Third Layer Heaven, which made her a true monster.”
“Howard Lee is almost the same, with his ‘Innate Divine Strength’ talent and perfect integration of advanced skills. His performance in the trials was also eye-catching, completing the first physique transformation.”
“As for Jack Clark, although he has cultivated the Dragon Elephant Power to the True Martial Divine Rhyme, displaying the ability to leapfrog a level in battle, the problem lies here.”
“Dragon Elephant Power is just a low-level martial arts, which does not mean that he has such comprehension and integration with advanced martial arts, so the final potential evaluation is slightly lower than that of Jane Aiken.”
“But now there is no problem.”
Sylvia Lyons looked at Jack Clark with a smile on her face: “Now that you have broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven in less than half a month after transferring to the Dragon Elephant Overlord Body, your speed has surpassed everyone’s expectations, including mine.”
“No one can question your potential now. What you need to consider next is whether to choose the Sumeru Bracelet or the cultivation resources.”
“Can I choose?” Jack Clark was somewhat tempted.
Lori Parma nodded, “Yes, but now that you have already broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven, I suggest you choose the Sumeru Bracelet.”
“The Alien Beast Battlefield is different from the previous small-scale trials. The situation there is more complicated, and sometimes you may encounter desperate situations lasting one or two months.”
“At that time, if you have a storage space to carry food and resources, you can hold on for much longer and have a higher survival rate.”
“In addition, the Sumeru Bracelet is also connected to True Strength, which allows you to store your weapons in it during normal times, and achieve a tempering effect during cultivation.”
“Then I choose the Sumeru Bracelet.”
In fact, even if Lori Parma hadn’t suggested it, Jack Clark would have chosen the Sumeru Bracelet anyway, because most of the resources in that cultivation package had very little effect on him.
Not all of them were Life Crystals.
Then Lori Parma reminded him, “After reaching the Fourth Layer Heaven, you will need to try to refine transcendent weapons. Whether or not you have transcendent weapons is very important for advanced cultivators.”
“Even the most ordinary transcendent weapon can enhance a cultivator’s combat power by 10%.”
“In addition, when you go to the Alien Beast Battlefield later, if you have enough resources, try to refine a set of extraordinary battle armor for extra protection.”
“For you, improving your cultivation is just a matter of time, but the premise is to survive.”
“Over the years, I’ve seen many geniuses, some with monstrous talents that are no less than you or Jane Aiken. Each of them has swept their peers.”
“But in the end, many of them die in some dangers or battles due to accidents or miscalculating their own strengths, which is a pity.”
Jack Clark kept Lori Parma’s reminder in his heart, then spoke awkwardly,”… Um, teacher, I didn’t redeem the Weapon Casting Secret Skill.”
“You didn’t redeem the Weapon Casting Secret Skill? Didn’t you have a free opportunity?” Lori Parma was taken aback.
He had previously reminded Jack Clark specifically to redeem this secret method early so as to practice it in preparation for refining transcendent weapons after breaking through the Fourth Layer Heaven.
Jack Clark was somewhat embarrassed, “At that time, I was more interested in another secret method to converge my aura. I thought 1 wouldn’t break through to the Fourth Layer Heaven so quickly, so I didn’t choose Weapon Casting.”At the side, Sylvia Lyons casually said, “How simple is this? Old Perry, just add a Weapon Casting Secret Skill to the application for the Sumeru Bracelet.”
“I don’t believe they’ll dare to block us this time, it’s just a secret method.”
Teacher Parma thought about it before nodding, “Alright, Jack Clark breaking through the Fourth Layer Heaven within one semester and being the first to break through in this term’s South Sky Martial Height is already enough reason.”
Hearing this, Jack felt grateful.
Of course, he deliberately brought up the matter of the Weapon Casting Secret Skill, since letting him spend another 100 contribution points to exchange the not-so-useful secret method felt a bit of a loss.
Now that he has this genius-monster identity, better make use of it while it’s free.
Next, Teacher Parma continued to remind Jack of some things to pay attention to, such as not casually revealing his True Martial Attribute to others.
The True Martial Attribute involved the Seventh Layer Heaven’s True Martial Phantom, battle body, and even the domain of the Ninth Heaven; if enemies knew about it, he could easily become a target.
Although many strong men can analyze and calculate others’ True Strength attributes through their characteristics and power.
However, with dozens of variations in just fire attribute alone, it’s hard to pinpoint the exact True Martial Attribute of others.
In the end, Teacher Parma breathed out, “Come to think of it, this might be my last time chatting with you about these things.”
“Teacher Parma, are you leaving?” Jack paused.
Teacher Parma nodded, “That’s right, I’ve already talked to Mr. Lester, and I’ll head to the Frontline Battlefield with him in a few days, finally getting rid of the boring days at school.”
Speaking of this, Teacher Parma couldn’t help but show a smug expression in his eyes but then consoled Jack.
“Little Jack, don’t be sad. Our school in Eastern Summer isn’t like the sects in Berlin; we teachers are just guides on your cultivation path and can only take care of the initial stages.”
“Especially after you’ve broken through the Fourth Layer Heaven, we don’t have much to teach you anymore. The most we can offer are some cultivation insights, how far you can go in the future depends on you.”
“Okay, I understand, teacher.” Jack nodded.
As for being sad… What’s that? He was just surprised by Teacher Parma’s departure.
At the same time, he was grateful for the guidance he had received and the help given this time to secure resources but, to be honest, there wasn’t much more emotion than that.
After leaving the Office Building, Jack looked up at the sun in the sky, it was probably around two in the afternoon. He couldn’t help but head towards the dining hall.
He hasn’t eaten lunch yet.
On the way to the dining hall, Jack’s eyes revealed his contemplation.
He still had 101 contribution points left in his hand, which wasn’t enough to exchange for the 300-point high-order dragon blood. So, what about exchanging the Combat Skill Eight Desolations Refining Inferno Halberd?
The Sword Armor Flame Beast had two Level 4 Life Crystals in its hands, which could potentially be converted into more than 100 attribute points, just enough to strengthen the combat skill and new weapon.
As for the Transcendent Weapon… There were no materials, he’d have to wait until he went to the Alien Beast Battlefield to consider that.
Only after breaking through the Four Layer Heaven did Jack realize he was even more impoverished.
The Dragon Elephant Overlord Body’s fifth level required dragon essence blood, attribute points, transcendent materials for weapons and battle armors, and besides all that, there were also the upgrades of combat skills and secret skills…
Thinking about all this, Jack suddenly felt a headache.
Of course, he could also not rely on resources and cultivate slowly, after all, those who created these cultivation methods also went through slow cultivation and breakthroughs.
But after getting used to the feeling of rapid cultivation progress, if you asked Jack to spend two to three years breaking through the Fifth Layer Heaven, he’d naturally be unwilling. With that time, he might even reach the Nine Layers Heaven.
This two or three years is just an estimate after his physique has been constantly evolving and his talent has increased. If it’s his initial medium talent, it might take at least ten years. After the Fourth Layer Heaven, many people’s progress gets stalled for ten or eight years.
However, with his current strength comparable to the Fifth Layer Heaven, as long as he’s careful, he shouldn’t have much problem going to the Alien Beast Battlefield.
As a traverser, Jack had a sense of pride in his heart. Knowing that he almost got blocked because his ‘talent’ wasn’t enough, and the resources being applied for made him feel a bit annoyed.
How monstrous is Jane Aiken and Howard Lee’s talents? Can they be more monstrous (Attribute Panel, Avatar Strengthening) than him?
And just as Jack arrived at the dining hall to have lunch, his breakthrough to the Four Layer Heaven, which had not been kept secret, quickly spread and made waves within the school’s official website.
Or rather, it caused a huge stir..
