NOVEL NEXT Chapter 91 - Adventure
When Mai Dongzi saw Ren Guang’s eyelid twitch, she had questions in her mind. However, since there were three unfamiliar boys present and students were occasionally walking by in the school corridor, she decided not to ask her questions right away, thinking there was no rush.
According to Ren Guang’s original cultivation level, even with the new type of energy potion she provided, it would have taken him at least a month or two to advance to level six.
However, he had advanced to level six within just a few days, and his cultivation was very stable. It was evident that he had reached this level shortly after she left the Xi family.
“I insisted on taking the Warrior Training Potential Enhancement Potion, so my father spent a lot of money to buy me the best one. Although it was risky, I succeeded. My warrior training potential has advanced from 3A to S.” Ren Guang must have noticed the question in Mai Dongzi’s eyes and answered it without her needing to ask.
“Captain, why did you suddenly take such a risk? You never had this idea before,” asked Senior Shi Zimo, who introduced himself.
Shi Zimo’s cultivation level was also late-stage level five, and his training potential was probably similar to Ren Guang’s original potential. However, since Ren Guang’s potential had now risen to S level, the gap between them would gradually widen, so he was particularly concerned about this matter.
In fact, not only Shi Zimo was paying attention, but the other two boys were also very interested. Their cultivation levels were both mid-stage level five, which made them quite outstanding even as third-year students.
After all, cultivators above S-level are extremely rare, so anyone with a potential level above 2A is considered exceptional.
Ren Guang glanced at Mai Dongzi, and she understood that this matter was related to her. It seemed he trusted her “precognitive dream,” which led him to take the risk. However, this couldn’t be spoken about openly.
“You all know my cousin’s training potential,” Ren Guang said somewhat helplessly. “And the other cousin, the one who just returned to the family—her original training potential was only 3A, but after taking the enhancement potion, it became S-level. I can’t be worse than my cousins, can I?”
Although he couldn’t reveal the real reason that prompted him to take the risk, his statement was true. Both of his cousins had taken the training potential enhancement potion and were quite formidable. If he, as a man, kept being cautious and hesitant, he would have no standing in the family.
Indeed, after his success, his position in the family was almost fully restored. At least, within the family, Erica could no longer suppress him.
As for the eleventh cousin, she was a prodigy he could never surpass. While he didn’t speak of it, in his heart, he had already decided to follow her whenever he had the chance. After all, she was both grand and capable.
Speaking of his smooth progress and solid cultivation, the new type of energy potion provided by the eleventh cousin played a crucial role.
It’s worth noting that many who failed after taking the training potential enhancement potion did so because of insufficient abilities or physical strength.
This new type of energy potion could quickly replenish one’s special abilities or physical strength, allowing him to safely navigate the dangerous phase of body transformation induced by the enhancement potion.
Upon hearing Ren Guang’s words, Shi Zimo’s eyes lit up with excitement.
From Shi Zimo and the others’ self-introductions, Mai Dongzi could immediately tell that their backgrounds were nothing significant.
However, since these were Ren Guang’s teammates and Shi Zimo’s family background was not as good as Ren Guang’s, if Shi Zimo could also successfully advance to S-level, he might become an asset to Ren Guang in the future.
Since Mai Dongzi decided to take General Su as her mentor, Ren Guang had been added to her list of candidates.
In peaceful times, she would climb up step by step without rushing, but there was no time left, so she needed talent for a battle team that could be trained quickly.
Given her age and status, students from the Imperial Capital University were the most suitable.
Although Ren Guang and his team had already graduated, they had only graduated a year ago, so young people with just one year of experience wouldn’t have a deep background in any field.
When the world falls into chaos, having enough ability and resources will make it much easier to gather them around herself.
She currently has quite a few new types of energy potions, and with the continuous stream of dividends in the future, although there won’t be much left aside from what she uses for her own cultivation, it will be enough to form a battle team with these potions.
The Combat Department is right next to the Command Department, just a two or three-minute walk away, so naturally, everyone wouldn’t waste their points on flying cars.
In fact, many students walk, and very few take flying cars.
When Ren Guang and his three companions entered the Combat Department cafeteria with Mai Dongzi, they attracted a lot of attention.
Ren Guang’s level six cultivation alone was enough to make him stand out. In Imperial Capital University, any cultivator above level six is considered a genius. However, with a team member who is an even more talented girl, how could they not attract attention?
Mai Dongzi quickly drew most of the gazes.
Those who knew Mai Dongzi were naturally interested, and even those who didn’t know her paid attention because of her age and cultivation level.
“Eleventh Sister, order whatever you want. I have a hundred points, enough to treat you to a feast,” Ren Guang said generously.
Mai Dongzi gave Ren Guang a silent glance, then elegantly ordered two items. Vegetables were fine, but the level-three mutant beast meat was a bit pricey.
Ren Guang didn’t mind at all and ordered the same natural meal as Mai Dongzi.
And the three teammates of Ren Guang quietly ordered similar meals, looking like they were wealthy and unconcerned about the points.
Because there were many people in the cafeteria, their food would take two minutes to arrive, so the five of them naturally started chatting.
“Junior, did you know you made a big impression today!” Shi Zimo said with interest as he looked at Mai Dongzi.
“The incident where the instructors competed for new students?” Mai Dongzi guessed.
Many new students were waiting in the lobby, and with senior students maintaining order. Mai Dongzi had seen the news about the incident on the Imperial Capital University’s campus website while having her late lunch.
The news included pictures, and although the faces were blurred, Mai Dongzi recognized herself immediately.
“But those pictures didn’t have familiar people, so it would be hard to recognize them. Yet, it seems like most people here recognize my Eleventh Sister,” Ren Guang said, puzzled.
“Didn’t Xi junior participate in the survival live-stream game? The news spread privately among everyone, but since you’re from the Xi family, no one would mention it to you,” said Yuan Hong, another teammate of Ren Guang.
This was expected by both Mai Dongzi and Ren Guang. Even if the instructors hadn’t competed for new students, with Mai Dongzi’s cultivation level, she would be well-known by the end of the freshman competition at the latest.
When it came to the incident of instructors competing for new students, everyone was curious about Mai Dongzi’s choice.
“Why did you insist on staying in the Arts Department?” Ren Guang genuinely didn’t understand Mai Dongzi’s choice.
When Ren Guang heard that she stayed in the Arts Department, he felt that she was wasting her cultivation potential and nearly wanted to take matters into his own hands and help her write a transfer application.
