Elder Luo quickly recovered his composure, placed his hands on his hips, and burst into laughter, "Hahaha! I knew it, I knew it! My judgnt is never wrong! Hahaha!"
Ye Changfeng still hadn’t snapped out of it, and he was suddenly dumbfounded.
If it were an SSR Awakener who had now reached the ridian Opening phase, he would have totally accepted it since that was quite normal. But the problem was, Xiang Beifei wasn’t an SSR! He had entered school as an N-level person...
Wait, could he be an SSR?
Ye Changfeng could no longer view his junior normally. For a mont, he even wanted to grab his sharp sword and drag Xiang Beifei to the desolate beast dissection room for research.
"Did you see it, did you see it!" Elder Luo, ecstatic, vigorously patted Ye Changfeng’s shoulder, "Are you still worried Liangzhou University has no freshn in the ridian Opening phase for the competition? We may not have SSR-level students at Liangzhou University, but we do have an N-level Awakener!"
Ye Changfeng: "..."
Sothing about that statent seed off.
"Why are you standing there, co on, get out every sword you can, we need to fully arm Beifei!" Elder Luo said.
"Okay!"
Ye Changfeng had just been worrying about which sword could help Xiang Beifei, but now that Xiang Beifei had reached the ridian Opening phase, he didn’t need to think that much anymore.
"Hold on, don’t waste them!" Xiang Beifei quickly said, "There’s still a month left, giving them to now is useless, wait until then, and I’ll tell you what I need."
Elder Luo and Ye Changfeng were too excited and about to equip Xiang Beifei, but stopped when reminded by him.
"Right, you just broke through to the ridian Opening phase this morning, your ridians should be very small, probably just a small section..." Elder Luo began, then paused. In his mind, a small section should be about the size of a fingertip.
Half a ter... does that count as a small section?
Elder Luo decided to ignore that and continued, "In a month, you should be able to develop more ridians. Then I’ll give you whatever you need! I will even trade items from the God Refining phase! But what do you need right now?"
Everyone’s cultivation base is different, and high-level system items are not necessarily what Xiang Beifei wants. Only the items that suit him are the best.
Xiang Beifei thought for a mont and said, "Sunflower seeds, I only need sunflower seeds."
Elder Luo’s sunflower seeds were a divine artifact for ridian developnt!
He had just cracked a few and found that the ridians within his body seed to be subtly twitching, ready to grow further.
"Sunflower seeds?" Elder Luo frowned, "I have so many good items, and you only want sunflower seeds?"
"I found that sunflower seeds have the ability to develop ridians, which you never told about," Xiang Beifei said.
Elder Luo hesitated for a mont and then said, "That’s not right! My sunflower seeds don’t have the ability to develop ridians; they can only replenish lost spiritual power."
If his sunflower seeds had that ability, he would have already cultivated a bunch of powerful ridian Opening phase students.
"They don’t?" Xiang Beifei was a bit confused; he hadn’t seen anything about this ability on Elder Luo’s system interface. Touching his chin, he added, "But my ridians were definitely acting up just now, I feel like they’ve grown a bit longer."
As he spoke, he suddenly realized that his way of cultivation had always been different from others’. While others cultivated slowly and needed the system to forcibly transform their bodies to open ridians, he seed only to need to absorb spiritual power to grow his ridians.
Sunflower seeds happened to be a type of spiritual power replenisher, and strangely enough, cracking Elder Luo’s sunflower seeds enabled his ridians to grow.
Elder Luo was also quite incredulous, "Your ridians grow by cracking my sunflower seeds?"
After all, he never experienced such an effect when he ate sunflower seeds! He had to develop his ridians by himself!
"Yes," Xiang Beifei nodded.
Elder Luo suddenly felt uneasy. Why didn’t his sunflower seeds develop his own ridians, but they could for this kid?
Last ti his SR system concluded that Xiang Beifei was more suited to spiritual power cultivation, and now his sunflower seeds had a special effect on Xiang Beifei too?
Could it be that his own system was biased outward?
Good grief! This traitorous system!
——
"Are you sure you only want sunflower seeds?" Elder Luo asked again.
Xiang Beifei nodded.
Elder Luo, rather reluctantly, quickly brought out five large bags of sunflower seeds and said, "Here, take these, all these sunflower seeds are for you. If you don’t eat sunflower seeds for long, the spiritual power will dissipate. Finish these and co ask for more, there’s plenty!"
"Okay."
Xiang Beifei quickly accepted all the sunflower seeds.
Ye Changfeng watched by the side, his face speechless.
Who would have thought that after Xiang Beifei broke through to the ridian Opening phase, he would not ask them for more powerful system items, but for Elder Luo’s sunflower seeds!
"Okay, since Xiang Beifei has reached the ridian Opening phase, we can now report it to the school..." Ye Changfeng said.
"Don’t rush!"
Elder Luo extended his hand with a wave, halting Ye Changfeng.
He furrowed his brows and pondered for a mont before snorting and said, "Keep this matter a secret for now! Right now, the people from the other schools are probably waiting to laugh at Liangzhou University. Let’s endure for now and catch them off guard when the ti cos!"
The other eight schools were already aware that Liangzhou University had no SSR. Last year, Liangzhou University ranked fourth, and now the five schools behind it are eagerly plotting to push Liangzhou University to the last position.
If Liangzhou University were to suddenly reveal a ridian Opening phase candidate, those five schools would definitely investigate Xiang Beifei. At that ti, for the sake of their own school’s reputation, who knows if they might harbor ulterior motives?
Xiang Beifei was currently only at the early stage of ridian Opening and belonged to the weakest part of that phase.
Even within the early stage of ridian Opening, different individuals had varying strengths, and this difference was manifested in the length of the ridians they had opened.
In the ridian Opening phase, one needs to open 96,000 kiloters of ridians, which ans that cultivators at the early stage of ridian Opening need to open at least one-third – that is, 32,000 kiloters of ridians to advance to the mid-stage of ridian Opening.
However, Xiang Beifei had only opened less than half a ter, not very strong yet.
Elder Luo couldn’t keep an eye on Xiang Beifei 24 hours a day, so the safest approach was to keep this matter under wraps for now.
Ye Changfeng also realized this and said, "Right, I was too excited just now and almost forgot."
"Cao Pei and Wei Tong, those guys are so concerned about their reputation. They don’t have any ridian Opening phase candidates this year, and they must be extrely anxious now. Let’s let them be anxious to death! On the day of the competition, we’ll let Xiang Beifei reveal his strength, and then we can slap them hard! Let’s see how they have the face to speak like they did before !"
Elder Luo was never easy to deal with. He wouldn’t be polite to principals and deans. Those people had been critical of Xiang Beifei since the beginning of school, but all were blocked by him. He disliked such people the most.
"Understood," said Ye Changfeng.
Xiang Beifei asked, "By the way, does each school need five freshn? Are the lists already decided?"
"Not yet, because it’s not the final mont, and it’s unclear who is more outstanding. So, this month, we plan to select four individuals from these eleven SR Awakeners," explained Ye Changfeng.
Xiang Beifei would definitely participate. Even if he didn’t break through to the ridian Opening phase, the school would still let him compete. After all, he had long been an unmatched "Body Cultivation" student in the Qi-Controlling phase, and his strength was evident, easily overpowering any SR youth with a single punch.
This year, the school admitted fourteen SR freshn, three of whom chose the Liberal Arts College. They didn’t possess high combat strength and could only participate in so activities organized by the Liberal Arts College. Thus, these freshn competitions fell to the eleven SRs of the Martial Arts College.
But it had only been two months since school started. While the SR freshn had strong learning abilities and were fairly familiar with the necessary knowledge, they still required training.
The cultivation progress of SR Awakeners wasn’t as rapid as that of SSRs. For example, in Xiang Beifei’s dormitory, only Long Guocheng and Li Zimu had reached the later stage of Qi-Controlling, while ng Yuekai was still at the mid-stage. There was still a gap between them.
However, this gap wasn’t too big in Xiang Beifei’s view; ng Yuekai would probably catch up in just about ten to fifteen days.
"Co on, we need to focus on cultivating now! First, we need to stabilize the ridians in your body, and then I will set up a cultivation plan for you."
Elder Luo sent Ye Changfeng away as he wanted to focus on teaching Xiang Beifei.
——
Xiang Beifei followed Elder Luo and trained for another week, cracking sunflower seeds and quickly consolidating his realm.
Under Elder Luo’s guidance, he avoided many detours. His ridians were now covering his fists, and Elder Luo’s sunflower seeds were still a miraculous aid in his improvent.
After stabilizing the ridians in his body, Xiang Beifei began to think about the capabilities of the ridian Opening phase.
He needed more spiritual power crystals to light up the first constellation of the ridian Opening phase. Currently, he only had a Purgatory Armor from Yuchi Shen.
Normally, asking for Elder Luo’s help was not a problem, but fleecing benefits should be done from outsiders, not from one’s own people.
He originally wanted to seek out the SSR Awakener, Hou Chengwu, but Xiaohei said the distance was too far and would require a trip to Qingzhou.
He pondered for a while and decided it wasn’t urgent for the mont. He would definitely encounter Hou Chengwu next ti. Just standing on the stage, Xiang Beifei would reset his cultivation with a single thought, without even needing to fight, delivering a slap directly.
So, he was thinking of trying to kill a ridian Opening phase desolate beast!
Xiang Beifei didn’t want to impose on Elder Luo, so he decided to use a Beast Pill instead! A desolate beast’s Beast Pill could also light up a constellation!
Xiang Beifei explained his requirents to Elder Luo, who looked sowhat puzzled.
"You need a ridian Opening phase Beast Pill?"
"Yes, I know ridian Opening phase Beast Pills might be hard to find..."
"Not hard to find! God Refining phase Beast Pills are hard to find, not the ridian Opening ones. I’ll help you go and kill one!"
Elder Luo imdiately didn’t care about anything else; he stood up from his recliner and prepared to run to the domain beyond, but then turned around and asked, "Is this Beast Pill for your system task? Must you kill it yourself, or can soone else help?"
"Uh, there’s no such requirent," Xiang Beifei said.
"Good, just wait at ho, I’ll make a trip myself!"
Elder Luo didn’t mind the trouble at all and was happy to run the errand for Xiang Beifei.
"Can I go? Can I take action?" Xiang Beifei asked eagerly.
Although Elder Luo could solve it with a move, Xiang Beifei wanted to test his own strength. Currently, his fists had opened up their ridians, and the power was still there in a punch.
"Oh sure, that works! I can also teach you so things too."
Elder Luo took a step forward; with a tremble of his spiritual power, he enveloped Xiang Beifei and dashed toward the domain beyond.
