Global Towers: Starting With The SSS-Rank Talent, God-Tier Extraction Chapter 161 - Cultivation

Cultivation was originally a long-distance race

The manager of the herb garden ordered his n to collect all the bamboo baskets filled with white radishes and counted them up.

At this ti, Liu Yan finally found all the other herb farrs.

Liu Yan was surprised to find that all the other herb farrs were actually left behind by him and Wu Hua.

Because they had been left far behind, Liu Yan had not been able to find these herbalists at that ti.

Liu Yan was puzzled for a mont.

After all, judging from their initial speed, many of the herbalists were faster than him and Wu Hua, and even twice as fast as him.

But why were these people so far behind now?

In addition, Liu Yan also noticed one thing.

These herbalists were sweating profusely and looked extrely tired.

Although Liu Yan was also tired, after a month of continuously plucking white radishes, he had long gotten used to it and was not that tired at all. He did not even sweat that much.

Soon, the staff of the herb garden finished counting.

Cao Dong looked at the summary table and was a little surprised. He then announced, “The top three in this competition are Liu Yan, Wu Hua, and Qiao Feng. Liu Yan has 378, Wu Hua has 356, and Qiao Feng has 179!”

......

Hearing Cao Dong’s announcent, Liu Yan was a little surprised.

Yesterday, Liu Yan was only close to 300. He did not expect to improve so much today.

However, Liu Yan realised in a split second. The main reason was that he had not stopped to rest throughout the entire day.

Although he had made good use of his ti previously, he still went for lunch and rested a little in the afternoon. Today, he had no rest at all, so naturally, there were so many more.

In addition, what surprised Liu Yan was that the third place only had a hundred or so, which was a huge gap between Liu Yan and Wu Hua.

At the sa ti, the other herbalists also looked at Liu Yan in surprise.

“Didn’t they say that their strength was sealed? How can they still be so strong?”

“Yeah, is their strength not sealed?”

“The number of radishes he plucked in a day is three tis that of mine with his strength sealed! This is too strong!”

“His strength should be sealed. Didn’t you see that Liu Yan’s speed wasn’t very fast in the beginning?”

“Yes, Liu Yan’s speed wasn’t very fast. It was only dium speed. But he didn’t rest the entire ti. He didn’t stop at all. This is too exaggerated.”

“Yeah, this radish is so difficult to pull out. We don’t have the strength anymore after pulling so and need to rest and recover. But he can keep on pulling. It’s too amazing.”

“Is this the strength of a once-in-a-century monstrous genius? This is too amazing. I’m impressed!”

“Each generation outperforms the previous. I ca to the Lighthouse Academy a few years earlier than Liu Yan, but I was left so far behind by him. It’s really embarrassing!”

“...”

For a mont, many of the herbalists looked at Liu Yan in shock and discussed animatedly.

Only when Liu Yan heard their discussions did he roughly understand the reason.

It turned out that at the beginning of the competition, Liu Yan’s speed was not as fast as theirs, and was even only half of their speed.

But soon after, the gap gradually appeared.

These white radishes were extrely difficult to pull out. Although these students were strong and capable, after pulling them out for a while, they had no strength left and needed to rest and adjust.

Even after resting and adjusting, they could not continue pulling out radishes for long.

As a result, they could not pull out many radishes at the end of the day. The third place only had a little more than a hundred radishes.

On the other hand, Liu Yan and Wu Hua, although their speed was not very exaggerated.

However, because of the special way of pulling out radishes, it was much easier. Additionally, when they gathered all the strength in their bodies, it was also much easier.

As a result, although Liu Yan’s was not as strong as the other students, pulling radishes was much easier for him.

In addition, Liu Yan had been training his stamina, strength, and willpower for the past month. He was hence able to persevere.

For the entire day, he did not rest throughout the entire journey and continued to walk forward.

On the other hand, although the other students were faster at the beginning, when they stopped to rest when they were tired, Liu Yan had already surpassed them.

By the ti they finished resting and continued, Liu Yan had left them far behind.

In the end, this wasn’t a competition of a montary speed, but the overall speed for a day. This was a long-distance race!

The pulling of radishes was the sa as the path of cultivation. Although so awakened ones had very good talent, they couldn’t persevere. And in the end, they couldn’t beco an expert.

And so awakened ones, despite their diocre talent, were able to keep going and persevere all the way through the hardships and cultivation, eventually becoming an expert.

Talent was very important, and it also determined the upper limit of an awakened one.

But persistence was also extrely important. It determined whether an awakened one could beco stronger and beco an expert in the end.

The path of cultivation was originally a long-distance race. It was not a competition of instantaneous speed, but the overall speed that one had persevered for a long ti. It was a competition of who could walk farther!

Liu Yan understood everything at this mont, and his heart was instantly filled with gratitude towards Wu Hua.

After all, Liu Yan had learned all of this from the old man, Wu Hua.

Without Wu Hua, Liu Yan would not have been able to improve so much in one month, nor would he be able to obtain first place in this harvesting competition!

At this mont, Cao Dong also ca up and took Liu Yan away, arriving at the place where the divine dicine was stored in the dicinal garden.

“Tell , what divine dicine do you want? As long as our dicinal garden has it, we can give you one!”

Cao Dong, who had always been dignified, had a sowhat relaxed expression now.

He had heard of Liu Yan before, and had also learned from the principal that Liu Yan was here to gain experience.

However, even so, he did not give Liu Yan any special treatnt, and treated him fairly.

However, he didn’t expect Liu Yan, who had sealed his strength, to be able to improve so much within a month after losing his powerful strength and terrifying talent. It was truly rare.

At this mont, even Cao Dong couldn’t help but think highly of Liu Yan.

When Liu Yan heard this, he was naturally extrely happy.

Although he knew in his heart that the Eastern Suburbs dicinal Garden had many precious dicinal herbs, there was no lack of divine herbs among them.

However, what Liu Yan needed the most at the mont was the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng. This was the dicinal herb that Liu Yan needed to refine his skin.

Only by gathering those four rare items could Liu Yan break through his upper limit and create a perfect body.

Liu Yan said without hesitation, “Hello, manager Cao. I need the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng!”

Cao Dong heard this and nodded slightly. “Hold on.”

After saying that, Cao Dong left. Not long after, Cao Dong returned with a special wooden box in his hand. He handed it to Liu Yan and said, “Our dicinal garden only has this half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng. You can take it.”

When Liu Yan heard that, he imdiately asked with so doubt, “Where is the remaining half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng?”

Cao Dong saw that Liu Yan really did not know, he smiled and said, “The other half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng was already obtained by Wu Hua last year. As for where it is now, you should ask yourself. Alright, you have already achieved your goal of coming to our dicinal garden. Pack up and leave on your own. Your talent and temperant are very good. I have high hopes for you. Continue to work hard!”

As he said this, Cao Dong made his leaving.

Liu Yan, who was standing where he was, was confused. What did he an by asking himself?

However, Liu Yan still opened the special wooden box in his hand. When he saw half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng, he was stunned.

It had a brownish-yellow appearance and a faint but strange sll.

Wasn’t this the sa as the soap given by Wu Hua?

Liu Yan recalled the words of Cao Dong, the manager of the dicinal garden, and imdiately understood.

It turned out that the remaining half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng had been with Wu Hua, and Wu Hua had actually given it to Liu Yan long ago. He had even taught Liu Yan how to use it.

In this one month’s ti, that half of the ten-thousand-year-old ginseng had also been used up by Liu Yan.
