Chapter 1132: Chapter 706 Liu Liu’s Life Opportunity
The ninety-ninth floor observatory of the Magic Capital Financial Building was unusually quiet at this mont, devoid of its typical bustling and lively atmosphere, with only tranquility and elegance to fill the air.
Seated by the massive floor-to-ceiling windows of the observatory, two n and a woman were leisurely sipping coffee. All three were young. Based on appearances alone, even the oldest of the youths looked to be only in his mid-twenties, while a slightly world-weary expression made the age of another youth difficult to discern. As for the sole woman, she emanated a faint scholarly aura, clearly resembling a student from a school.
Although these three were rely observing the prosperity of the Magic Capital with indifferent faces, nearby heirs of the four major families dared not make a single loud noise. These top-tier young masters, who usually held their heads high, sat upright and proper as if mice before a cat at this mont.
Wu Youyou stood out among these second-generation youths as particularly out of place. First, she was not an heir to any of the four major families; second, she lived in the Emperor Xuan Villas alongside Mister Chu from across the way, and moreover, her father was one of Mister Chu’s confidants, currently in Capital City managing Mister Chu’s business affairs. Truthfully, Wu Youyou should be considered as one of their own; thus, compared to the restraint of the other heirs around her, she appeared much more relaxed and at ease.
“If only I could again receive Mister Chu’s or Tianya’s esteed favor and have another opportunity for advancent, that would be wonderful,” Wu Youyou lay on the dining table, her eyes fixed intently across from her, her whole being radiating anticipation.
But just as her words fell, Xuanyuan Fanghua, seated opposite her, rolled her eyes and then this young miss of the Xuanyuan family scoffed coldly:
“So people are just never content. Advancing two levels in succession is already the greatest of blessings from above, and still not satisfied with that, aiming for another advancent? Do you think martial cultivation is child’s play?”
Xuanyuan Fanghua’s words were laced with a thick tone of jealousy, regretting that during their first sparring competition, she had not seized the opportunity to be the first to go up to fight. Otherwise, she could have been the one progressing now.
Wu Youyou gave no heed to Xuanyuan Fanghua’s words. She simply flipped an eye-roll, then lifted her chin arrogantly and said:
“I seem to recall soone lost a bet to last ti and was supposed to call ‘senior sister’. Moreover, they’d have to avoid by three feet whenever we et in the future. I wonder who that soone could be!”
Using their previous bet to tease Xuanyuan Fanghua, Wu Youyou effectively deflated the latter’s jealousy-inducing display.
Ever since the bet, Xuanyuan Fanghua deliberately avoided going to Emperor Xuan Villas. It had been half a month since she last saw Wu Youyou, but this ti, she was representing the Xuanyuan family heirs to et with Mister Chu. And with such a rare opportunity at hand, even if mocked by Wu Youyou, she had no intention to leave voluntarily.
Opting for silence, Xuanyuan Fanghua said nothing, while Wei Xinran suddenly spoke up from the side:
“Mister Chu had previously said that, no matter who it is, anyone receiving Tianya’s acknowledgnt would have one wish granted. This was promised by Mister Chu himself, so whether it’s or Youyou advancing again, it’s not impossible, given the rules set by Mister Chu himself. Nobody can oppose that, right?”
Like Wu Youyou, Wei Xinran had also seized an opportunity previously in the villa courtyard, both having advanced from A-rank to Half-step Grandmaster. Their progress was trendous, equalling what might typically take more than a decade of rigorous cultivation.
Valuing the present chance all the more, if they could receive assistance from Chu Mo or Tianya and leap from early Half-step Grandmaster straight to peak Half-step Grandmaster, it would be as though they soared to the heavens, with limitless potential for the future.
By then, ascending to Grandmaster was practically a certainty for them, and even charging towards Great Grandmaster held great promise, since both were significantly younger than the average Grandmaster, possessing at least a twenty-year advantage in age that further amplified their chances of progression.
Under these circumstances, Wei Xinran would naturally not want others to deprive her of the potential to advance. Despite her rivalry with Wu Youyou, the two ford a united front at this mont.
“Don’t celebrate too early, you two. You’ve just advanced from A-rank to Half-step Grandmaster, and your bodies have only begun to cultivate Innate True Qi. The ridians and cultivation at this stage are fragile. You both would need at least a year of hard cultivation to stabilize your foundation, and only with a stable foundation is further advancent possible.
If you both seek to advance now, your foundations may beco unstable, and the violent Innate True Qi within your bodies could burst your ridians, leading to a catastrophic end!”
Whispered among the young heirs, aged Wei Ran, heir to the Wei family, was the eldest, a thirty-one-year-old who had just reached the peak Half-step Grandmaster. According to his own projections, he might ascend to the Grandmasters within a decade, which would be an incredible pace of training.
Having cultivated every step of the way to this point, Wei Ran, of course, understood the realm of Half-step Grandmaster better than anyone present. While he too envied the two young won before him, Wei Xinran was, after all, of his Wei family, which is why Wei Ran couldn’t help but speak up to remind her.
