Chapter 57: Shui Bing'er: You Want Me to Buy Whale Glue for My Father? Are You a Human?
Shui Bing'er gritted her teeth and swallowed the still-warm Whale Glue in front of her.
Whale Glue's medicinal properties only take effect after being heated with flames. The two pieces of Whale Glue before them had already been processed, and despite having cooled for a long time, they still retained a warm feeling.
After being burned by the flames, the Whale Glue lost its fishy smell, replaced by a light, refreshing fragrance. The taste was warm, like biting into a piece of jelly, transforming into a warm current that flowed down the throat.
Shui Yu'er, seeing her sister's actions, also took a bite of the Whale Glue.
A flicker of surprise flashed in the two girls' eyes; the Whale Glue was clearly more delicious than they had expected.
They felt the warmth coursing through their meridians, nourishing them and giving them a soothing, comfortable feeling.
The power dissolved and absorbed into their meridians, causing their faces to flush and their perception to begin to blur slightly.
Whether it was a feeling in some part of the body or the actual feeling after the meridians were nourished, they did feel the effect of the tempering chain. It was a feeling as if being burned by flames but without pain.
The two girls' eyes flickered with a faint light, becoming even more charming in the night.
Shui Bing'er, who was usually cold because of her Spirit, seemed to melt at this moment.
Sun Qi was guarding outside the door and could not see this scene. He could only hear faint and indescribable sounds.
The next morning, Sun Qi looked at the two sisters with dark circles under his eyes and looked refreshed.
"Sister Bing'er, how is it?"
Sun Qi was now concerned about Shui Bing'er's feelings.
"It does have the effect of improving physical fitness, and the feeling is very obvious." Shui Bing'er said with a blushing face.
Thinking of the effect of taking Whale Glue last night, she couldn't help but think of the shameful process in the second half of the night, and her head almost fell to her chest.
"Then I can absorb Soul Rings of higher levels, right?" Sun Qi said.
Shui Bing'er frowned slightly.
She was not sure how much her ability to withstand it had increased.
"Sister Bing'er, your endurance is clearly palpable. It's at least three hundred years of improvement. Isn't that just enough time for me to try for a Thousand-Year Soul Ring?"
Shui Bing'er hesitated for a moment before turning to Shui Yu'er to inquire about the situation. Shui Yu'er had also seen significant improvement.
Her Soul Power had also broken through, boosted by Whale Glue, reaching Level 20.
Reaching Level 20 at eleven, if all goes well, she should be around Level 24 or 25 by twelve.
If she can try for a Thousand-Year Soul Ring at her second Ring, she might even be able to defy fate and reach Soul Elder status by the age of fourteen.
She and Shui Bing'er share a father and mother, but she's two years younger. However, her talent is significantly different. While she's considered a prodigy, she's far behind her sister.
Shui Bing'er not only possesses the top-tier Beast Spirit, the Ice Phoenix, but also possesses an innate Soul Power of Level Nine. She's only two years older, yet she's ten levels higher!
"You've broken through?" Shui Bing'er was surprised.
Although she also felt that her Soul Power had increased significantly, she still didn't break through that threshold and reach level 30.
Seeing this, Sun Qi suggested: "Why don't we wait for you, Sister Bing'er? You've been stuck at level 29 for a few months. Now that you've absorbed the power of Whale Glue, it shouldn't take long for you to break through. Then we can hunt souls together, and the three of us can absorb Soul Rings at a higher level together."
Shui Yu'er looked at her sister expectantly.
She was tempted.
Because Sun Qi told her about the series of chain benefits that Soul Rings could bring.
Shui Bing'er was very conflicted at the moment.
She said: "I can't decide either. After all, if we really want to hunt souls together, it will definitely be my father who takes us to hunt souls."
Father?
Shui Yu'er said: "That's perfect. My father basically listens to you, sister."
"Stop it! How could Father possibly agree to something like this?"
Sun Qi seized the opportunity and said, "Sister Bing'er, why don't you buy Uncle Shui a piece of Whale Glue?"
Shui Bing'er's eyes widened.
She stared at Sun Qi.
Are you kidding?
A good daughter buying a piece of Whale Glue for her father—what kind of operation is this?
Sun Qi knew his suggestion was a bit abstract, but how else could he explain it?
"Sister Bing'er, just do it this way. Uncle Shui has a higher level of Soul Power, so he should be able to more accurately judge the effect of the Whale Glue enhancement. This way, we can also better determine our body's tolerance."
Shui Bing'er bit her lip, her face full of confusion.
Shrek Academy.
A new day, a new beginning.
As usual, Golden Cudgel Sun Qi rose early and began exercising.
Glancing over, he was surprised to see Yu Xiaogang returning from outside, dragging his exhausted body towards the dormitory. His gait was odd, as if he were holding his buttocks close.
After his surprise, he paid little attention.
Yu Xiaogang didn't need to be given too much attention.
Unbeknownst to Sun Qi, Yu Xiaogang had been completely transformed.
He was truly a genius in the realm of copying homework. Drawing inspiration from Stone Monkey Sun Qi, he had discovered the correct training method for Luo Sanpao, and his progress was remarkable.
On the first night, he mastered his Soul skills and achieved a momentary pseudo-Spirit possession.
On the second night, he increased the duration of his Spirit possession to one second, allowing him to benefit from Luo Sanpao's various bonuses.
It was this second that allowed him to control his Soul skills with greater ease, allowing him to wield them with greater agility, such as aiming.
On the third night, he concentrated on the research of Spirit possession and stopped practicing Soul skills.
Every morning during his morning exercises, Sun Qi saw Yu Xiaogang sneaking back to the dormitory from the grove, and gradually felt the change in Yu Xiaogang's attitude.
This guy's temperament seemed to have changed, becoming more - confident?
By the seventh day, he found that Yu Xiaogang was no longer that sneaky when he returned to the Academy, and even looked at him many times, as if with a hint of... fighting spirit?
"He probably doesn't recognize himself anymore."
Sun Qi shook his head and continued his practice without paying attention.
Until half a month later.
"What? Yu Xiaogang broke through level 30?"
Sun Qi looked at Oscar who came to report the news in surprise.
He remembered the recent changes in Yu Xiaogang and was sure that it should be caused by these changes.
"I just scolded him a few words, and that coward was still able to stand up?"
Sun Qi couldn't understand it either. Wasn't Yu Xiaogang known for being cowardly and thick-skinned?
He came to the playground and saw Flender hugging Yu Xiaogang excitedly.
"Great, Yu Xiaogang, you finally broke through level 30!"
Yu Xiaogang couldn't help crying in Flender's embrace. It was obvious that breaking through level 30 meant too much to him.
Sun Qi looked at this scene and found it very eye-catching.
"Next, it's the soul hunting operation. Let's check your strength at the same time."
After the two of them were excited, Flender turned around and waved his hand, indicating that the Academy would launch the soul hunting operation next.
"Dean, I refuse." Sun Qi said.
Soul hunting is a waste of time and energy, so he refused.
Dai Mubai followed suit and refused.
Including Ma Hongjun, they all raised their hands weakly, indicating that they didn't want to go.
