Chapter 217: Chapter 155: Rewards Brought Out, Su Xing's Seeking Heart! (5k)_3

"Buddy, I get it! Don't worry, I'll be the only one eating this elixir!"Watching Fatty Yu's smug expression, Su Xing was somewhat surprised. Could it be that this guy really noticed something?

But then Fatty Yu slung his arm over Su Xing's shoulder and led him out of the dorm, heading toward the gathering location.

"Let's go, the others are getting impatient!"

Soon, Su Xing and Fatty Yu arrived at an old, well-known food stall across from the school.

It wasn't expensive, but the taste was excellent. Su Xing would occasionally come here to eat.

About twenty classmates attended the gathering. Other than Fatty Yu, Su Xing only knew the others as acquaintances, and couldn't even recall some of their names.

"Come on, guys, let's have a drink!"

"Hahaha! I heard that you, kid, recently advanced to Master Level? You're paying for the meal today!"

"Little Liu is doing well too, right? I heard you were poached by a big trading company. Now even breaking through to Grandmaster Level seems possible for you!"

A group of young people in their early twenties gathered, their faces flushed with drink.

At this moment, a tall and thin young man stood up, holding his glass and said:

"Haha, guys, you may not know yet, but Fatty Yu just recently broke through to Grandmaster Level! In our cohort, his strength can rank among the top three!"

As these words were spoken, the rest of the classmates looked on with envy and then raised their glasses to Yu Yan.

The atmosphere at the entire gathering was quite good.

Only Su Xing sat alone in a corner, occasionally drinking with Yu Yan and at times drinking on his own.

There was no scene of showing off or slapping faces as imagined. These classmates, although not particularly warm to Su Xing, did not go so far as to exclude him.

Perhaps because of Fatty Yu's face, a few classmates even toasted Su Xing several times.

Su Xing responded in kind.

Looking at the young faces before him, Su Xing couldn't help but recall the scene from four years ago when school had just started.

Back then, Su Xing was riding high, hailed as a once-in-a-decade talent at Kyoto Academy! seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

With the robust physique of a Body Refinement Cultivator, Su Xing had even crushed those who had just barely reached the bronze level.

He claimed first place in the newcomers' competition...

However, fate is unpredictable, and soon Su Xing found he couldn't level up, and his strength hardly improved.

The friends who were once keen on him gradually drifted away.

Even the teachers were thoroughly disappointed in Su Xing...

It wasn't until half a year ago, when Su Xing got the golden finger, that he finally grew up completely.

"In just half a year, from a mere Qi Refinement first stage cultivator... to becoming a Divinity Transformation Stage powerhouse... this really has been, a wondrous experience!"

Su Xing thought to himself, feeling quite enlightened at the moment.

"However, be it Qi Refinement or Divinity Transformation... bronze or legend... failing to become a top-tier powerhouse in this world means one will ultimately die in that unexpected change!"

Su Xing silently took a sip of his drink, reminiscing about everything he had experienced in the Divinity Transformation's fifth pass.

He mused, "A cultivator, if seeking immortality, how can one be confined by trivialities? These years of cold glances, the ups and downs..."

"They're nothing more than a bit of frost during the process of cultivation!"

Su Xing drained his glass in one gulp, his resolve to pursue the Dao growing even firmer.

At that moment, Su Xing's state of mind ascended...

Late at night, after the gathering ended, Su Xing escorted a drunken Fatty Yu back to the dorm.

Watching Yu Yan in deep slumber, Su Xing silently entered his Spirit Field, using spiritual power to disperse the effects of the alcohol.

"Ah, time to continue alchemy!"

Su Xing smoothly resumed his alchemy life.

A week quickly passed by.

In that week, most of Su Xing's classmates graduated and left the school.

But Su Xing's life remained as regular as ever. Unexpectedly notified by Liu Xiaodong that he was being held back a year, Su Xing wasn't annoyed and just continued with his alchemy.

Soon, on July 8th, Su Xing brought the elixirs to meet Jin Congxue.

Jin Congxue was wearing a beautiful red dress that day, vibrant and unrestrained.

"Heehee, big boss... Congratulations on your graduation!"

Jin Congxue smiled and said to Su Xing.

Su Xing rolled his eyes and said:

"Cut it out, I got held back!"

Jin Congxue looked puzzled and inwardly exclaimed, "No way, with your strength, you're being held back? Is Kyoto Academy's barrier that high?"

Su Xing briefly explained.

Then he thought of something and said to Jin Congxue:

"By the way, could you arrange a casual position for me within Kyoto Academy, like a librarian or something? School restarts in September, and I don't want to stay in the same dorm with freshmen... A single dorm would be preferable, it would make things convenient for me!"

After hearing this, Jin Congxue nodded slightly, understanding Su Xing's intent.

"Don't worry, leave this trifle to me. You'll report to the library tomorrow! The last one in the ranking?"

After saying that, Jin Congxue covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, her demeanor very alluring.

Su Xing also smiled, chatted with Jin Congxue a bit more, and then returned to the empty dorm with new stock for the week.

"I wonder if Fatty Yu would get into trouble at Demon-Subduing Pass?"

"Demon-Subduing Pass is relatively safe for now. I might be able to send him some treasures later if I get the chance... There shouldn't be a big problem..."

Su Xing shook his head slightly, then entered into the Spirit Field Blessed Land.

After converting the new stock of goods into simulation energy, Su Xing's energy increased by 16 million points.

It was a considerable amount, but for Su Xing, who had experienced "big trades," it was only decent.

On the afternoon of July 8, 2024, Su Xing punctually started a new round of simulation.

"Start the simulation!"

[Ding! This simulation consumes 4,400 energy points, leaving 226.38 million energy points remaining. Remaining simulation attempts are unlimited.]

[Simulation begins!]

[Drawing a green talent costs 1,000 energy points. Blue talent costs 10,000 energy points. Drawing a purple talent costs 100,000 energy points. Would you like to draw?]

"Draw the purple talent!"

Su Xing silently recited.

[Congratulations! You have obtained the purple talent: Tiny but Cute!]
