Chapter 32: Third Schoolhouse

Su Jin's spirit-refining effect was so good that it was very likely not because she cultivated the If Three Methods together.

Rather, it was because her talent was inherently high.

"Are you saying we are very unlikely to achieve the effect Su Jin has, where one great cycle increases a wisp of soul power?" Su Wuji said thoughtfully.

"Mm." Su Cheng nodded directly.

"Even if we cannot reach Su Jin's level, if we cultivate the If Three Methods together, we will definitely be much faster than others," Su Wuji said.

"Mm." Su Cheng nodded again.

"Then everyone should speed up. Look, Su Jin is already cultivating the If Three Methods together, and I have already broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two. What about you? Still squatting in Qi Refining Layer One, and you haven't even achieved cultivating the If Three Methods together!" Su Wuji urged with a poisonous tongue.

"Brother Wuji, if you always speak like that, you will get beaten," Su Yunhu said.

Su Wuji directly rolled his eyes at him. "Am I not speaking the truth?"

Su Yunhu: "..."

Su Cheng went straight back to disassemble the formation plate; he must solve the medicine bath matter when he got home, and he must accelerate his cultivation.

Just at this moment, someone arrived again at the schoolhouse entrance. Liu Shi walked in from the schoolhouse entrance with two female students.

"Eh? You are all resting. This is Su Xiao, this is Su Lan. They have also broken through to Qi Refining Layer One. From now on, they will cultivate here in the backup schoolhouse together with you."

"This is Su Wuji, this is Su Cheng, this is Su Jin, this is Su Yunhu. The two over there, the one on the left is Su Linyuan, and the one on the right is Yang Guan. You all get to know each other." Liu Shi introduced the six original students in the schoolhouse to the two new students.

"From now on, all eight of you must stay here in this schoolhouse to cultivate. Remember not to disturb other students' cultivation casually." Liu Shi's words were mainly directed at Su Lan and Su Xiao.

After all, they had just arrived.

"Today is the fifteenth day since our new semester began. Our class already has eight students who have broken through to Qi Refining Layer One. Although our class is not the one with the most students breaking through to Qi Refining Layer One in the entire grade, at least we ranked third."

"This ranking is acceptable, right?"

Liu Shi was quite satisfied with her results this year and continued speaking: "But I still hope you can cultivate more diligently, striving to break through to Qi Refining Layer Two as soon as possible. Then go to the neighboring schoolhouse to continue cultivating. The spiritual energy in that schoolhouse is even more dense."

"Liu Shi, this place here is the neighboring schoolhouse. You keep saying 'neighboring schoolhouse.' Which one is that neighboring schoolhouse?" Su Yunhu complained with a playful grin.

Liu Shi rolled a pair of eyes at him wordlessly.

"Alright then, let's unify our terminology. The schoolhouse where we originally held class will henceforth be the First Schoolhouse. This place is the Second Schoolhouse. If any of you break through to Qi Refining Layer Two and go to the schoolhouse next to the Second Schoolhouse, that counts as going to the Third Schoolhouse. The spiritual energy there is even more dense, and there are various special facilities waiting for you to use."

Upon hearing this, Su Wuji immediately asked, "Liu Shi, does breaking through to Qi Refining Layer Two require going to the Third Schoolhouse next to the schoolhouse we are in now?"

"Yes. The Third Schoolhouse allows you to freely practice various spells. Once you break through to Qi Refining Layer Two, you can go to the clan school's library to select spells you like. Of course, you can also choose not to cultivate spells and only cultivate the basic Qi Refining Cultivation Technique."

"However, greed leads to indigestion. When you select spells, it is best to choose only one or two at a time. After you have cultivated the spells in your hands to the Minor Success stage, then select new spells to cultivate," Liu Shi said.

"Then Liu Shi, I have broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two," Su Wuji said, raising his hand.

He did not want to wait; he needed a schoolhouse with more spiritual energy.

This way, using the Spirit Gathering Array would also consume fewer spirit stones.

Upon hearing this, Liu Shi immediately smiled. "Good, Su Wuji, come over here and let me check. If it is true, you can go select spells tomorrow afternoon."

Before she came, she had been thinking constantly about when her class would produce a Qi Refining Layer Two cultivator.

She did not expect one to appear right now.

"I am here." Su Wuji hurriedly walked toward Liu Shi. After Liu Shi confirmed that he had indeed broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two, she directly handed him a small wooden token. "You have already broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two; the original medicine bath packs are no longer very effective."

"Hurry and return the remaining medicine bath packs, then go to the Medicine Office to exchange them for new medicine bath packs."

"Alright, I will go first thing tomorrow morning." Su Wuji nodded immediately upon hearing this.

He knew the effects of the medicine bath packs issued by the clan school too well; he used them every day. Now hearing he could exchange them for better medicine bath packs, Su Wuji was even happier.

The other students looked at him with envy on their faces. Even Su Linyuan and Yang Guan were no exception.

Especially Su Linyuan; he was not only envious, but he was also cursing in his heart: Damn, Su Wuji cultivates way too fast.

It has only been such a short time, and he has already broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two!

Although he and Yang Guan had other plans, Su Wuji's far-ahead lead made them deeply feel the psychological pressure of being unable to catch up even if they spurred their horses.

This fellow is at least a small genius-level figure.

Such a person, even if he enters a sect in the future, will absolutely surpass the vast majority of disciples. His future might even become a powerful Hall Master or Peak Master.

Yang Guan felt this even more deeply.

He remembered telling his father about the situation in the class. His father had once sighed and said: Heaven is truly too generous to the Su Clan. Since the Su Clan established the clan school, almost every generation has produced outstanding disciples.

In your generation, Su Wuji is likely one of them.

Su Wuji had broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two and was about to transfer to the neighboring Third Schoolhouse to cultivate. This major event was like an exploding thunderclap, leaving Su Xiao and Su Lan somewhat dazed.

They had originally thought that since the two of them had broken through to Qi Refining Layer One, they were among the strongest students in the class.

They did not expect that among the strong, there are even stronger ones.

Su Wuji had actually already broken through to Qi Refining Layer Two.

Liu Shi left Su Lan and Su Xiao behind and departed. She still had to return to the First Schoolhouse to guide those students who had not yet broken through to Qi Refining Layer One in their cultivation.

Su Lan felt she must think of a way to accelerate her cultivation speed. Otherwise, she would very likely become the tail-end of the Second Schoolhouse.

She suddenly saw Su Jin's face, and an idea sprang to mind.

She simply pulled Su Xiao over to stand in front of Su Jin. "Su Jin, this is Su Xiao. Now that we have all broken through to Qi Refining Layer One, we must help each other from now on."

Su Jin: You ignored me before, and now you come looking for me? And you talk about helping each other? Help my ass?

"Did you receive the formation plates issued by the clan school?" Su Jin asked.

"Liu Shi said she will give them to us tomorrow," Su Lan said quickly.

"Then remember to bring spirit stones with you, otherwise the Spirit Gathering Array cannot be activated," Su Jin said.

"Then how many spirit stones do we need to bring?" Su Lan asked again.
