As Bai Pu’s words echoed, the team mbers who had not yet been nad all listened intently.
Especially Light Wine, who prided himself on being a Level 4 Heroic Profession. Originally, he was supposed to be an ironclad main lineup, still thinking of further enhancing his power to compete with Bai Pu for the captain’s position.
But now, being ruthlessly suppressed by Bai Pu, he could only hide his little thoughts and now could only hope to get into the main lineup, win a school championship, and then talk about it later.
Several other close combat mbers also started thinking. Even though they weren’t as strong as Light Wine’s template, their levels were higher. Maybe they’d be chosen by Captain Gangxin’s discerning eye.
Only Shiyi stood honestly at the back.
She was currently just Level 3 and moreover rely an elite template, the weakest in the school team, not expecting to be chosen.
She just stayed in the back, looking at Bai Pu’s face, lost in thought.
Bai Pu’s gaze settled.
"For the final main mber, it’s between Light Wine and Shiyi. Strictly speaking, both of you are still lacking. Light Wine, your level is too low; you need to at least reach Level 5. Shiyi, how far are you from 100% experience at Level 3?"
Shiyi felt a tension akin to being called out by a teacher when daydreaming, quickly replying: "About twenty percent left..."
"Twenty percent, an exploration of the Spirit Realm or finding a training-focused Boundary Land should suffice."
Bai Pu said, "Once you’re fully prepared, try a Second Transformation. If you succeed, advance to Level 4 Heroic Profession and you can join the main lineup."
Light Wine couldn’t help but say, "Captain Gangxin, I am already a Level 4 Hero right now!"
Bai Pu said blandly, "Wait for Shiyi’s Second Transformation and you to reach Level 5, then have a duel and see."
Light Wine fell silent.
He internally complained: Do you think advancing to a Heroic Profession with a Second Transformation is that easy? Can anyone break through?
Teacher Cai Cai looked at the field, the team mbers all obedient to Bai Pu; even when Bai Pu obviously showed favoritism towards Shiyi, no one dared to protest genuinely.
She sighed internally, realizing that indeed the bigger the fist, the louder the voice; an issue that caused her a week’s headache was resolved by Bai Pu with a few punches and kicks.
Teacher Cai Cai said, "Gangxin, I want to apply for a cultivation field for the school team at the Giant Fern Mountain Range."
"No problem, go coordinate with Li Ling. Once agreed, I’ll enable the permissions."
Bai Pu didn’t ntion anything about "free". Talking money hurts feelings, talking feelings hurts money.
Teacher Cai Cai didn’t ntion it either. She knew that Bai Pu and Blood Spider stayed because the school promised to give Bai Pu and Blood Spider Spirit Realm Tickets and other cultivation resources as a preference, essentially pleading for Bai Pu to stay. The most important thing now was not to upset Bai Pu.
After the main lineup was finalized, Bai Pu waved towards Shiyi, saying, "Shiyi, co over here."
Shiyi blushed and quickly ran over to Bai Pu.
"Long ti no see."
"Mm... long ti no see," Shiyi said, fiddling with her clothes corner.
The other mbers of the school team pricked up their ears; it seed like there was so romance.
But Teacher Cai Cai was considerate and led the others away.
Bai Pu wasn’t harboring any ideas towards Shiyi. Though Shiyi had a cute appearance, radiating a kind of youthful energy, desire and love were completely outshined for Bai Pu by the allure of reaching the pinnacle of evolution and exploring the mysteries of Spiritual Energy.
What left a deep impression of Shiyi on Bai Pu was that ti Shiyi escaped his wrist grasp.
Bai Pu’s fighting specialization was now honed to Level 7, and with the Limit Breaker, it reached the height of Level 8. Facing Level 3 Shiyi was supposed to be absolute dominance; once he made a move, Shiyi shouldn’t have any chance of dodging or evading.
Yet Shiyi then seed to transform into formless light, slipping through Bai Pu’s fingers.
"What skill did you use to dodge my grab just now?" Bai Pu asked.
"I don’t know, just... got nervous, my mind went blank, and then it happened." Shiyi’s face flushed red like a bun.
"Want to try again?"
With Shiyi’s consent, Bai Pu made another move.
Shiyi once again felt that nowhere-to-hide tension, but this ti, she couldn’t escape and was caught by Bai Pu.
"Again."
Bai Pu was a bit dissatisfied.
After about ten attempts, Shiyi wasn’t able to replicate that miraculous escape once.
She was so anxious she was nearly in tears.
"Forget it, maybe the ti hasn’t co." Bai Pu couldn’t be too demanding. He was even beginning to suspect, is Shiyi truly a "reincarnation of the Divine Race"?
As for Shiyi’s occasional display of dance-like extraordinary body technique, it was one of her mutant three-star skills, called "Secret Scripture Dance," which increased dodge value and instant sprint speed by 10~???.
This was already quite impressive.
When Bai Pu asked Shiyi about her comprehension of the mutant skill, he was taken aback.
Shiyi said, "I had a dream... dread of dancing at a festival, where it was a grand sea of flowers... seed like being called so goddess. After waking up, an original two-star combat skill ’Swift Shadow’ disappeared, and this mutant skill erged."
Shiyi blushed a bit; dreaming such goddess dreams felt too embarrassing to share.
"Alright, it’s like being fed by heaven."
Bai Pu waved his hand, not pressing further. He thought even if Shiyi wasn’t a reincarnation of the Divine Race, she was at least an exceptionally gifted genius.
...
Bai Pu notified Li Ling to establish a cultivation field for the Xili Institute of Technology school team in the Giant Fern Mountain Range.
The cultivation field was located on the periter of the Giant Fern Mountain Range, where the concentration of Spiritual Particles was substantial, albeit lower compared to the core area’s Molten Rock Platform of Giant Fern Volcano, which was the site of Bai Pu’s cultivation hut.
The Molten Rock Platform and Ancient Dragon Tomb were currently marked as forbidden zones; only Bai Pu and his trusted friends were allowed entry, others were not permitted to enter.
As days passed, ti rolled into March.
Bai Pu activated the roulette lottery.
The last roulette lottery was held in mid-December, drawing from the B-level fa roulette.
Originally, Bai Pu had high hopes for the lottery, but luck was just as bad as in September, without drawing any particularly rare prizes; instead, he drew a full 12 Blue Enhancent Crystals.
Blue Enhancent Crystals were roughly worth tens of thousands of Spiritual Points. They were not completely useless for Bai Pu, though such items were sothing he didn’t particularly lack anymore.
Since the last lottery, Bai Pu hadn’t bothered to maintain his fa anymore, just normally streaming, cultivating, not even releasing the much-demanded "Steel Heart Interdiate Character Card" by players.
But even so, Bai Pu’s fa remained steadily at B-level (well-known), hovering around 1500 points.
This indicated Bai Pu wasn’t just a fleeting teor; after scoring the top exam rank, winning the school championship, and resolving the beast disaster crisis by taking the Giant Fern Mountain and Steppe Border, the positive publicity earned made Bai Pu’s fa comparable to well-known players of the A-level league.
