Soon, Chen Mochuan came down from the overwhelming delight of gaining access to special cultivation resources.
Ferocious Beast meat containing excessive toxins was contraband. After slaughter, it was destroyed on the spot, so there was no way to get it through legitimate channels. Where was he supposed to find any?
A few hazy ideas flashed through his mind, but Chen Mochuan quickly dismissed them one by one.
All those methods seemed to skirt the edge of the law. Some of them even sounded a little... criminal.
He shook his head, temporarily abandoning the dangerous idea of finding Ferocious Beast "scraps" to eat.
He would have to think this through carefully.
The next morning, during Stance Training class, the students in the advanced class held their breath and focused on practicing the Root-Solidifying Stance under Lin Hong's supervision.
Chen Mochuan was practicing the seventeenth stance, while only a few of the other students had managed to assume the fifteenth stance at most. In this regard, he had opened up a commanding lead.
Some eyes turned his way.
He had just made a spectacular impression at the midterm exams, then gone absent from school for several consecutive days. Aside from Li Biao, who knew some of the circumstances, none of his classmates had any idea why he, usually so diligent, had suddenly taken most of the week off—right at such a critical point in their final-year sprint.
But Chen Mochuan paid no mind to their stares. He simply focused on his stance, carefully feeling the surge of Blood-Qi within him.
At last, before class ended, the Golden Light Screen gave him its feedback.
