Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 151: The Start Of A Feud (2)

At the fragment room, Su Yu resumed his routine of torturing himself. After witnessing Bai Feng's strength, his thirst for strength had increased further. He wasn't even at the Mental Tempering Stage yet. People like Bai Feng didn't even have any interest in properly teaching someone at his level. There was also no need for them to teach him. At his level, there were many things that he simply couldn't learn or understand.

After a session in the fragment room, Su Yu hesitated slightly before using a drop of Infinite Strength blood essence. He was going to use the blood essence to further speed up his cultivation.

With the blood essence and the filter room, his acupoint opening speed reached a terrifying level. He was on the verge of opening the seventh acupoint of the War God Art. The Great Strength Realm wasn't that far away.

That day, Su Yu cultivated madly. He tortured himself endlessly. And he cried endlessly. With the help of his blood essence, Su Yu finally opened his seventh acupoint. Now, he was one acupoint away from mastering the first stage of the ordinary War God Art.

…

He only returned to the living area after ending his cultivation late at night. On the table was a book.? That was the advanced War God Art! Bai Feng had left the underground room some time earlier to leave the book on the table. Su Yu picked up the book and exhaled lightly. This was a top-tier earth-grade cultivation method.

A cultivation method with 108 acupoints! For the first stage, he needed to open 12 acupoints. To officially enter the Great Strength Realm, he needed to open 5 more acupoints.

"Even without a willpower text, my cultivation speed still feels fine."

Su Yu muttered to himself. He did not have a War God Art willpower text but he felt like his cultivation speed was still quite fast. He didn't know if it was because willpower texts weren't that important for the early stages or if it was due to his incredible talent.

"Whatever. I'll try to open the remaining acupoints as soon as possible and officially enter the Great Strength Realm."

He aimed to finish that goal in one month. As for his willpower, he also hoped to enter the Mental Tempering Stage within one month. But that seemed rather unlikely.

Tomorrow, classes would start. Su Yu decided to not spend the night in the research center. He had to go back and get a fresh set of clothes. His textbooks were there as well.

"Maybe...I can move to the research center."

Su Yu was tempted. Nobody would bother him when he cultivated in the research center. In fact, living there would feel like living in an independent villa. Even with Bai Feng around, he would spend most of his time on the third underground floor.

"I can save 10 merit points per year if I stay here. I need to start saving my merit points."

The more Su Yu thought about it, the more he looked forward to it. Should he...do it?

...

Even late at night, the academy was still brightly lit.

Walking on the street alone, Su Yu finally had some free time to enjoy the night view of the academy. His exhausted mind started loosening up. After two continuous days of high intensity training, he was quite tired. He couldn't help but to admire those experts that could stay in seclusion for decades.

How did those people last so long? Also, he couldn't help but to wonder if those experts need to empty their bladder during their seclusion. That was a very important question! If they still needed to empty their bladder, could outsiders enter the places of cultivation of these experts? Would they faint from the stench the moment they walk in?

While entertaining these random thoughts, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Su Yu stepped aside. He was a new student so he decided to continue keeping a low profile. But surprisingly, the newcomer stepped in front of him again. When Su Yu finally looked up, his expression changed and many thoughts appeared in his mind.

The person in front of him was a young man. He had seen this person before. In fact, he had just seen this person earlier today. But back then, this person had not paid him much attention.

The young man exhaled softly. Finally, he found Su Yu. When Su Yu stopped walking, the young man said, "Let me introduce myself. I am Chen Qi, a student from the previous intake, also a personal student of Assistant Hu Wensheng."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Su Yu."

Chen Qi nodded and said, "Today, Assistant Bai Feng defeated my teacher and won the mountainbreak bull blood essence my teacher had prepared for my body forging."

Chen Qi's face turned gloomy as he said, "I have been waiting for this chance since last year. The Great Strength Realm is the only time one can forge one's body prior to the Skysoar Realm. One can forge one's body as long as one stays at the ninth-stage Great Strength Realm or lower.

"I aim to challenge the Top 100 Ranking, so I'll try to enter the Infinite Strength Realm this year. Without a strong enough body, I won't be able to defeat the students in the Top 100 Ranking.

"Su Yu, you have just entered the academy. You still have plenty of opportunities. Even at the ninth-stage Great Strength Realm, you can still forge your body. As for me, I don't have any time left."

Chen Qi earnestly said, "After your teacher won the mountainbreak bull blood essence from my teacher, I have no way of forging my body. Your teacher must have won that blood essence for you. Su Yu, I hope you can agree to sell it to me.

"I know you come from an ordinary family and lack merit points. I can buy the blood essence from you with merit points. Among the different types of Great Strength blood essence, the mountainbreak bull blood essence is rare enough that its value is comparable to Infinite Strength blood essence. I am willing to buy it from you at the price of 5 merit points per drop. You can get 500 merit points in total."

Chen Qi said, "At your current level, you need a lot of merit points to build your foundation. You will take at least a year to reach the ninth-stage Great Strength Realm. During that time, I'll try to buy some blood essence of a top 100 race for you. Both of us can benefit from this."

He was very earnest. He was even willing to spend his merit points to buy the blood essence from Su Yu.

Initially, Su Yu was rather shocked when he heard the offer of 500 merit points. But soon, he bitterly said, "Senior Brother, you must be kidding. My teacher won the blood essence himself. I haven't even laid my eyes on it. How am I supposed to sell it to you?"

"Don't worry. Assistant Bai will give it to you soon." Chen Qi hurriedly said, "You're already at ninth-stage Source Opening Realm. The blood essence must have been prepared for you."

Su Yu frowned slightly and forced himself to smile before saying, "But Senior Brother, I still don't have the blood essence in my hands..."

"It's fine. You can sell it to me after getting it." Chen Qi eagerly said, "We can sign a contract first. I'll agree to purchase the blood essence from you for 500 merit points. As long as you sell the blood essence to me, you won't get a single merit point less."

Su Yu forced himself to smile again. What a joke. Even if he already had the blood essence, he still wouldn't sell it. Even if he didn't need the blood essence, that still wasn't something for him to sell.

If Bai Feng really gave the blood essence to him, it meant that Bai Feng hoped to see him grow strong. But if he ended up selling the blood essence instead, what would Bai Feng think?

He might offend Bai Feng for that. Offending Bai Feng for only a few hundred merit points or even getting himself kicked out of the research center was totally not worth it. Furthermore, doing so would only damage his reputation.

His teacher had given him blood essence to forge his body only for him to sell the blood essence. If news of that spread, his reputation would plummet. If Bai Feng ended up kicking him out, no other teacher in the academy would be willing to accept him after that. Thus, this Chen Qi was basically trying to buy Su Yu's future with only 500 merit points. Was his future worth that little?

"Senior Brother Chen, my apologies, but I can't do this."

Su Yu refused.

Chen Qi's expression changed as his tone turned gloomy, "Su Yu, if you refuse, that's the same as ruining my future. I am supposed to have a chance at challenging the Top 100 Ranking during the next two years. Without the blood essence, I won't be able to do so. Do you know what it means to ruin someone's future?"

Su Yu frowned. The smile finally vanished from his face as he said, "Senior Brother Chen, you're making this a way bigger deal than it is. Your teacher was the one who had lost the blood essence in a bet. How is that my fault? If you really want to buy it, you should look for Teacher Bai, not me.

"You're only a coward who is afraid of the strong and only dares to bully the weak. You are only here because you don't have the confidence to get the blood essence from my teacher. You're here to take advantage of my ignorance. But if I do sell you the blood essence, that would truly be the same as ruining my own future. You're trying to ruin my future and even want me to agree to it. You threaten to see me as an enemy if I disagree. In that case, so be it. We shall be enemies."

Su Yu's face was cold. What a joke. Who was ruining whose future here? This guy was obviously the one trying to ruin his future. Did this guy really think that he was a fool?

Sure, 500 merit points were a lot. An ordinary student might really accept the offer. But he was Su Yu. He had his own ambitions. Why would he ruin his future for only 500 merit points?

Su Yu started walking away. Behind him, Chen Qi's gloomy voice rang out, "You might be right, but like I said, you still have more opportunities after this. But this is my last opportunity. Su Yu, are you really unwilling to do me this favor? I can pay you 1,000 merit points!"

"Senior Brother, you can try to buy the blood essence somewhere else. With 1,000 merit points, you might really get it."

"That requires time!" Chen Qi angrily said, "Generally, you can only buy a few drops per day. To get 100 drops, you need at least half a year or an entire year. Therefore, you still have time to start gathering the blood essence from now. Accepting this offer won't negatively affect you. As for me, I don't have any time left!"

"Try the black market, Senior Brother."

Su Yu was unmoved by the offer. Did he really have that much time? He also wanted to enter the Top 100 Ranking in a year! He ignored Chen Qi and continued walking away.

Behind Su Yu, Chen Qi clenched his fists tightly with fury in his eyes. He was here earnestly to buy the blood essence from Su Yu. He was even willing to pay 1,000 merit points. That was worth more than the blood essence. Why was Su Yu insisting on ruining his future?
