In the forest, the sight of Zhu Zhuqing leaving resolutely was like a poisoned steel needle, stabbing viciously into Dai Mubai's chest.
That icy, disappointed gaze deeply wounded Dai Mubai's pitiful self-esteem.
"I'm not trash! I haven't wasted these five years! I've been building up my foundation!!!"
Dai Mubai roared madly in his heart. The extreme humiliation, fury, and intense desire to prove himself transformed into boundless motivation at that moment.
Perhaps Zhu Zhuqing's departure had dealt him too severe a blow, but the Soul Power that had been rampaging within Dai Mubai's body miraculously converged, forming an unstoppable torrent!
Crack!
Accompanied by a crisp shattering sound from within his body, the level-thirty bottleneck that had plagued Dai Mubai for five whole years finally shattered with a bang!
Boom—!
A fierce Soul Power fluctuation several times stronger than before erupted from Dai Mubai's body, instantly blasting away the fallen leaves around him.
He had broken through!
Sixteen-year-old Dai Mubai had finally crossed the threshold of level thirty and become a Quasi-Soul Elder!
"Hahaha! I broke through! I finally broke through!"
Dai Mubai abruptly opened his eyes and howled at the sky.
He did not even have time to stabilize his newly attained realm. He leaped up from the ground and sprinted toward the academy like a crazed White Tiger.
He had to find Zhu Zhuqing immediately!
He had to tell her in person that he was already level thirty!
He had to explain that the reason his Soul Power had risen so slowly over the past five years was entirely because he had followed Grandmaster's teachings, tempering his body and building up his foundation!
He believed that as long as he brought out Grandmaster's Invincible Theory, Zhu Zhuqing would surely understand his difficulties!
Dai Mubai ran all the way and
