133: Ling Yichen’s Breakthrough

Ling Yichen’s Breakthrough

2"Chuxi, you… What did you just say?"

Regardless of how composed Ling Yichen usually was, he was simply unable to keep calm at the moment.

"Tian Luo Pill. Xia Zhuoyi's mother gave me a pill recipe, and it was for the Tian Luo Pill. I refined it last night," said Ling Chuxi with her eyes closed, yawning again.

Her words invoked a storm of excitement in Ling Yichen's heart!

'Tian Luo Pill. The item Xia Rulin gave Ling Chuxi was actually the formula for the Tian Luo Pill! And Ling Chuxi actually managed to refine it! Is that what she bought those herbs that day for?'

Looking back and forth between the porcelain bottle in his hands and the indifferent Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen's heart was incredibly shocked. He knew that Ling Chuxi seemed to understand art, and also knew how to refine pills, but he never thought that she would actually manage to even refine the Tian Luo Pill.

In that case, which level had her pill refinement standard reached?

After finishing her soybean milk, Ling Chuxi lazily said, "If you don't breakthrough this time, I'll refine another one for you."

"One is sufficient."

Ling Yichen grasped the porcelain bottle tightly, a glimmer of self-confidence shining in his eyes.

…

After that, Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen went to the back mountain of the academy. It was quieter, and there normally weren't many people who came to this place.

Finding an empty spot, Ling Yichen ate the Tian Luo Pill and quietly sat down with his legs crossed. Ling Chuxi cuddled Little White as she sat nearby, watching over him.

Ling Yichen very quickly entered into a good state. His face was peaceful. Slowly, the air surrounding him seemed to become like a small tornado with him as the center, slowly spreading to his surroundings. His body gradually started emitting the white light of Battle Qi. The next moment, it suddely surged out, as if a dam had broken. A gale rose, then suddenly, everything returned to silence.

Very quickly after, Ling Yichen's eyes snapped open. There was joy and shock in his clear eyes.

Ling Chuxi's face broke into a smile as she knew — Ling Yichen had brokenthrough! Now he was also at Battle Qi Level-7 Primary stage!

Ling Yichen stood up and quickly ran over to Ling Chuxi as he excitedly said, "Chuxi, I, I brokethrough!"

"Yes, congratulations, Yichen." Ling Chuxi tilted her head as she smiled.

"Chuxi… thank you." Ling Yichen took in a deep breath before slowly exhaling. He was grateful to Ling Chuxi from the bottom of his heart.

"So, repay me." Ling Chuxi raised her brows playfully and smiled. "I heard that there is a new rice noodle shop over at Chengxi. Your treat. I want to try every single flavor."

Ling Yichen was stunned, but very quickly smiled again. "Alright." At this moment, his usually cool facial features had also softened.

He passed the porcelain bottle back to Ling Chuxi. "There are still two more Tian Luo Pills here. You keep them yourself. You can decide how you want to use them."

Ling Chuxi pondered for a moment before accepting it. "Zhuoyi's Battle Qi is at Level-7 Intermediate stage, so he temporarily does not need the Tian Luo Pill. We can talk about his later on. As for these two, I will find a suitable opportunity to give them to the second elder. I'll get him to let the people in the clan use it."

"That's good too," replied Ling Yichen, nodding.

"Then, we'll go back during the next break to take a look." Ling Chuxi put away the porcelain bottle. "I miss the second elder and Aunt Wang a little."

Ling Yichen naturally did not have much of an opinion and simply said, "Alright."

…

The next few classes were extremely smooth sailing. Normally, the mornings were for theoretical classes, while the afternoons were for practical classes. One had to admit, White Stone Academy being the fifth best academy nationwide was indeed based on ability. The teachers' explanations and demonstrations minimized the students' unnecessary detours, and helped them understand the Battle Qi at a glance.
