"Miss Fu has no choice, it’s better than just sitting idle here at Xiaopei Mountain like us."
"Hmph, I don’t believe it. This cursed Evil Star shift can’t last for four months straight. Another ten days or half a month, and I’ll take a task at Shoushan Tower."
Ever since the last task with Liou Yuan, Qiu Ming has been eager every day to go out on a task.
If it weren’t for how dangerous it is during the Evil Star shift, he would’ve already tried to persuade Liou Yuan.
"The consumption of Star Stones is indeed too high, and my rit points have only been decreasing lately," Liou Yuan sighed slightly, fully understanding Fu Xueping.
He’s able to train during the Evil Star period, but it’s still too slow without the help of the Sect Array, requiring daily reliance on Star Stones.
Don’t be fooled by his seemingly calm deanor every day.
Seeing the constant drain of rit points is still unsettling.
This feeling of idly waiting around is not good.
"Let’s not talk about these annoying things, let’s drink!" Qiu Ming drinks, and forgets quickly.
"It’s like this for all the outer disciples at Five Extres Mountain now, not just us."
After a round of drinks, Xie Miaobo talked about the cultivation status of this year’s new disciples.
Most of the Five-Star Star Acupoint disciples have already reached Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer.
The Four-Star Star Acupoint disciples have basically broken through to Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.
Most of the Three-Star Star Acupoint disciples are still at Qi Cultivation Third Layer, with only a few having reached Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.
The gap in cultivation talent is clear.
Don’t underestimate the difference of just one layer; this is just the beginning stage of cultivation.
This gap will only widen in future cultivation.
Liou Yuan listened calmly, not worried at all.
After all, he has already gathered nine strands of Spiritual Power within him, just one more to break through to Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer.
"Within the next one or two months," Liou Yuan said with bright eyes.
The more he cultivates, the more he feels that his cultivation speed might only be slightly behind the Five-Star Star Acupoint disciples, almost like a Quasi-Five-Star Star Acupoint.
"I heard..." Xie Miaobo began, using his talent for gossip.
Starting with the words ’I heard,’ he unfolded a story that might be true or false.
"The Six-Star Star Acupoint who entered the Inner Sect is already at Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer and is in seclusion, aiming to break through to Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer."
"What a freak," Liou Yuan and Qiu Ming were shocked, exchanging incredulous glances.
The more they cultivate, the more they understand how difficult each breakthrough is past Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer.
Qiu Ming struggled to break through to Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer, yet that Six-Star Star Acupoint freak is already aiming for Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.
"Not even on the sa level," Liou Yuan exclaid with emotion.
Though they weren’t sure if the rumor was true, they subconsciously assud it was.
Without such cultivation speed, the entrance of that Six-Star Star Acupoint into the Inner Sect wouldn’t have caused such a stir.
The higher-ups in the Inner Sect have likely assud that this Six-Star Star Acupoint disciple will beco a Foundation Establishnt Great Cultivator in the future.
The three talked in admiration, with no jealousy among them.
As Liou Yuan remarked earlier, the Six-Star Star Acupoint is on a different level from these outer disciples.
"It’s a relief that monsters like that appear at Five Extres Mountain only once every few decades, otherwise it’d be too discouraging," Liou Yuan pondered silently, then turned to ask the well-inford Xie Miaobo: "Any news on Liou Tao lately?"
"No, ever since the battle at Little Cyan Valley, Liou Tao has seemingly vanished," Xie Miaobo affird with a shake of his head.
After the battle at Little Cyan Valley, Xie Miaobo had been particularly keen on keeping tabs on Liou Tao, so if he said there was nothing, then there was indeed nothing.
"Must be up to no good," Qiu Ming sneered coldly.
He didn’t believe Liou Tao would do nothing and was just waiting for the right opportunity.
"Not too foolish, are you?" Liou Yuan chuckled.
"Stop calling foolish!" Qiu Ming shouted.
It wasn’t the first ti Qiu Ming protested, evidently to no effect.
He wasn’t confident he could defeat Liou Yuan, so other than protesting, he had no recourse.
After his protest, Liou Yuan noticed Qiu Ming squinting, speaking in a low tone: "I saw Zhao Feiyue yesterday."
"Since joining, that woman hasn’t shown her face, burying herself in cultivation daily. Her aura feels much stronger than mine."
"She’s likely the first among us to break through to Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer."
Since joining, Liou Yuan had already morized the nas of the seven Five-Star Star Acupoint disciples.
Upon hearing Zhao Feiyue’s na, her details instantly popped into his mind.
Zhao Feiyue, the youngest daughter of the Patriarch of the Zhao Family, one of Six Major Families at Five Extres Mountain, with a Five-Star Thunder Acupoint.
It’s well known that among the various Star Acupoints, Thunder Acupoints are the most aggressive.
Thunder magic always has the greatest power among spells of the sa quality.
"Thunder Acupoints are already difficult enough to deal with, judging by her deanor, she’ll likely be the first to break through Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer among the Five-Star Star Acupoint disciples,"
Liou Yuan clicked his tongue in amazent, not forgetting to ask: "Did she take elixirs?"
Just as Bao Yufeng did to break through Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer by purchasing elixirs to enhance cultivation, such acts are common.
As long as the elixir toxins are mild, with Zhao Family’s strength, they certainly have the resources to purchase elixirs for Zhao Feiyue.
"Hard to say. You haven’t seen her; she’s ambitious, aiming for Foundation Establishnt. She likely won’t use elixirs early in her cultivation," Qiu Ming noted, uncharacteristically sensible.
Though he’d never t Zhao Feiyue personally, seeing that even the usually foul-mouthed Qiu Ming refrained from slandering her, Liou Yuan’s impression of her rose a few notches, thinking: "With both background and talent, and such dedication."
