Breaking Through Level 40, Shattering the Record

Outside the Girls' Dormitory.

When Tang San knocked, Xiao Wu opened the door, holding Ning Rongrong's hand with her other hand.

The two girls had only lived together for one night, yet it was as if they had already formed a deep bond.

They told each other everything.

"Xiao Wu, it looks like you and Ning Rongrong get along pretty well."

Tang San looked at Xiao Wu, who was being teased by Ning Rongrong, and spoke.

"Yeah, Rongrong's actually really nice."

Xiao Wu replied with a smile.

"That's good."

Tang San had been worried that Xiao Wu would not be used to living here, but now he could relax.

Ning Rongrong, huh.

He glanced at the girl in luxurious clothing. She was clearly no ordinary person, and she had secrets of her own.

But since Xiao Wu got along with her, he would look after her as well.

Tang San thought silently.

"Alright, I'm starving to death."

Ning Rongrong looked at the Sundial. It was already past seven.

She had been starving for ages.

"Fine, let's go eat at the cafeteria."

Tang San led Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu toward the cafeteria.

Just as the group reached its entrance,

they happened to see Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing heading inside as well.

"Huh? Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing?"

Xiao Wu looked surprised. "Zhu Zhuqing, where did you go? Why didn't I see you this morning?"

"Oh, Mubai and I went to cultivate."

Zhu Zhuqing answered.

"What? You two got up way too early."

Xiao Wu could not help saying.

"Mm, let's eat."

Tang San did not particularly want to say much to Dai Mubai.

He simply pulled Xiao Wu and the others inside.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing followed at an unhurried pace.

"What? Why... is breakfast actually this stuff?"

The moment Xiao Wu entered the cafeteria and saw the food, she could not help shouting.

"Exactly... this is..."

Ning Rongrong complained bitterly as well.

"It's even worse than Nuoding Academy's."

Tang San could not help twitching at the corner of his mouth.

Dai Mubai calmly walked over and sat down.

"Is this even fit for human consumption?"

Xiao Wu looked at the food in her hands, feeling increasingly irritated.

"Exactly, this..."

Ning Rongrong's young lady temper flared up again.

"Ladies, would you like some of my sausage?"

Suddenly, Oscar popped out of nowhere, holding a sausage in his hand.

"You perverted bearded uncle! Get lost!"

Ning Rongrong jumped in fright and could not even hold her tray steadily. With a smack, it fell to the floor.

"Say, Dai Mubai, is this what you usually eat?"

Tang San finally could not hold it in any longer. He walked over to Dai Mubai and asked.

"Oh, no. It's what you'll all be eating from now on."

Dai Mubai expressionlessly pulled out two meals from somewhere.

He had ordered this delivery long ago.

What a joke. He was a dignified Prince of the Star Luo Empire.

How could he possibly eat something that looked like swill?

Dai Mubai glanced at the breakfast in front of Tang San.

It was just noodles, with nothing else in them.

And those noodles did not look very clean, either.

That guy Flender truly did not care about anything as long as it saved money.

A strong youth made a strong nation. Luckily, these people were all soul masters.

Otherwise, it would have been "a youth collapsed in the cafeteria."

"Zhuqing, come eat."

Dai Mubai opened the two lunch boxes.

This was breakfast for the two of them.

They were filled with Soul Beast meat.

They tasted quite good, too.

"Dai Mubai, how much does this cost?"

Xiao Wu stared eagerly at Dai Mubai's breakfast.

She was practically drooling.

Seeing this, Tang San felt an itch in his heart as well.

After pondering for a moment, he walked over to Dai Mubai and asked,

"Oh, one Gold Soul Coin per portion."

Dai Mubai fed a piece of meat into Zhu Zhuqing's mouth as he answered Tang San's question. "Here, Zhuqing, this venison is good."

"This..."

Tang San's expression changed, and he was startled inwardly.

He had not expected Dai Mubai to eat so well.

One Gold Soul Coin was ten thousand Copper Spirit Coins.

Tang San had not had much money to begin with, and Flender had even swindled quite a bit from him.

He could not afford such good food.

"Third Brother, it tastes awful."

Xiao Wu frowned. After taking just one bite, she could no longer eat.

"Xiao Wu, we still have to eat this. A sage once said, when Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility upon a person, it must first torment his will, exhaust his muscles and bones, and starve his body..."

Tang San tried to fool Xiao Wu into eating the food.

"Third Brother, what you said seems to make sense."

Xiao Wu looked at Tang San and nodded.

Then she lowered her head and started eating.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong snorted coldly. "Isn't it just that you don't have money? And you're still trying to preach reason."

Tang San's mouth twitched at once, and he did not know what to say.

Dai Mubai watched the scene while leisurely eating his breakfast.

Everything he had ordered was extremely nutritious.

It was all Soul Beast meat.

After eating it, it could provide a slight increase to Soul Power.

Though it was only a little, a tower of ten thousand feet began from the ground up.

Trying to take shortcuts and achieve obvious results was not very realistic.

Those precious foods were far too expensive for Dai Mubai to afford.

Right now, he was merely a down-and-out prince.

Though someone sent him gold coins, it was not much.

He still had to find a way to speed up his cultivation.

Dai Mubai stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth and pondered silently.

Ah!

He had it.

How about... cultivating together with Zhu Zhuqing through Dual Cultivation?

He suddenly thought of the Mysterious Heaven Skill that Tang San cultivated. Since that kind of martial arts technique could aid Soul Power cultivation, then a Dual Cultivation method should presumably work as well.

Of course, the proper kind of Dual Cultivation.

Not a Fusion Technique.

As everyone knew, Dual Cultivation was an extremely fast method of increasing one's strength, second only to Demonic Cultivation.

However...

There was a problem.

He did not know martial arts, and as for a Dual Cultivation method like that...

he truly had no idea how to use one.

Still, he and Zhu Zhuqing did have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill...

Perhaps the method of Dual Cultivation could offer some clues through their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

At this point, Dai Mubai was deeply obsessed with cultivation.

Whoever got a leveling system would not constantly grind levels?

That was exactly how Dai Mubai was now.

You were a genius? You could challenge opponents above your level?

Then what if I was ten levels higher than you?

If ten levels still were not enough, then twenty, thirty, fifty.

Eventually, there would come a level you could not overcome.

Dai Mubai's thinking was that simple.
