"No way!"
A tremor of disbelief crept into Liu Erlong's voice as the words slipped softly past her lips.
Her gaze involuntarily settled on Chen Jue. With his eyes closed in concentration, he was immersed in cultivation, seemingly cut off from the world.
Chen Jue's cultivation had quietly risen another two levels.
Three levels in a single night-such speed overturned everything she knew, leaving her dumbfounded.
This... this was simply unbelievable!
Liu Erlong marveled inwardly. Even with all her experience, she had never heard of such astonishing cultivation speed.

"Only three levels in one night. Sigh! What a letdown!"
Liu Erlong's pupils contracted slightly at his words, while waves churned violently in her heart.

"Chen Jue, how do you cultivate so quickly?"
"Is there a reward for telling you?"

His gaze froze, incredulous shock spreading across his face, as though time had stopped.
Erlong? She... she actually came out of Chen Jue's dormitory?
