Chapter 55 - 55: Showing Off Talent
"Damn!! Why does it seem like Ah Tian is even stronger than us now?!" Wang Sheng asked while he's breathing heavily while lying on his back, trying to catch his breath his limbs all spread out, looking like a starfish on the ground.
"You're really absurd Old Tian, are you even cultivating the same way as us?" Huo Chen interjected as a hint of frustration appears in his eyes, sure, they might be happy for their brother achieving greater things, but they would be a hypocrite if they say that they don't feel even a bit of envy from him, good thing that for someone of their character, this bit of envy would only serve as a fuel for them to work even harder.
"Hahaha, I'm just lucky" Wu Xiaotian dismissed as he looks towards the two, scanning their current strength with the help of the True Sight Technique.

Seeing their strength, Wu Xiaotian nods in praise, as he recalls the so called 'peak' of their cultivation state for normal geniuses.
'Based on the data I've gathered, the limit of the Advanced State Core Formation is just 36 innate strength, for them to reach this level says much about their talents' he thought to himself, not telling them in fear of their ego inflating just after being beaten up.
"Hah… seems like they're also out as well" Wang Sheng said as they detected two new existences approaching from the distance, the aura surrounding them seems to perfectly complement each other, elevating each other's quality.
As the figures approached, the silhouette of the two ladies gradually appeared, their beautiful visage stunning their childhood sweethearts, and even Wu Xiaotian, who's exposed to multitude of different peerless beauties couldn't help but nod his head in admiration.
The two ladies seem to be the ones that gains the most in this trip, their strength that falls slightly behind the two young men previously now reaching a level on par with them, in addition to that, what they cultivated seems to improve their appearance even further, causing the two young men's heart to beat faster as they stare towards them.
"Ahem… your mouths are starting to form waterfalls" Wu Xiaotian ruthlessly commented, waking the two out of their stupor. They fixed themselves, even standing straight with their chest out as if to impress the ladies, something that probably would be a bit effective of not for the two ladies seeing them completely drooling at them.
"Forget about their antics Brother Tian, it's not like we've never seen them this way" Bing Xue said she gracefully laughed, before looking at Huo Chen and approaching him.
"Wang Sheng!! You… I'm ashamed of you!!" Leng Yue berated as she also approached her 'friend' pinching his waist for seemingly no reason at all causing the cunning-looking young man to cry out and complain.
"Why?!" Wang Sheng asked as tears formed on the corner of his eyes, the pain in his waist increasing even further while he tries his best to escape from this woman's cruel claws.
After playing around for a while, they decided to start packing up, looting the library clean, the only thing that seems to be of value now as the ambient spirit qi already started to deplete from their long seclusion.
"You sure you just want the herb garden Old Tian? I could give you so much more herb than that, come get some books and techniques" Huo Chen asked as he couldn't comprehend Wu Xiaotian's decision of exchanging all of his shares in the library for the exclusive rights of the herb garden, after all, he could buy so much of these herbs if he sold few of the techniques from the library.
'If they knew that I memorized everything here, I wonder how they will react' Wu Xiaotian wonders, deciding against saying it as he don't want them to be discouraged because of him than they already have.
"Forget about the techniques, I'm not interested, just give me the herbs you said when we meet somewhere again" Wu Xiaotian said, thinking of travelling alone to
"Yeah, that's one of the purposes of the messaging app, some sort of quick information channel with visuals if you will" he replied as he opens his artifact, creating a chat group with the five of them in and started a demo by taking a picture and video of the surrounding, then sending it to the group.
"Wow!!!" the two ladies excitedly said as they started to think of how great this artifact is, starting to explore all the functionalities this thing has.
"How long can it function?" Huo Chen asked, fiddling around the device.
"That thing runs on spirit qi, so as long as it's near your body when using it, it will always work, oh right, that thing can pick up signals from other same devices so long as they're within ten thousand kilometers of each other, and the devices can also act as a relay to connect two different devices that are too far from each other, the other things, you can figure on your own" Wu Xiaotian answers, telling them some of the specification of the device.
"Well, thanks for this gift Old Tian, I hope you could find the person you're searching for" Huo Chen said in farewell, throwing him a pouch, inside it are ten protection talismans enough to block a full power attack from a Perfection State Core Formation Realm.
"You know you need it more" Wu Xiaotian said as he thought this is too much of a gift.
"Keep it Old Tian, I have more of that in my space ring" Huo Chen shoved it back in his hands, so Wu Xiaotian no longer refused.
"See you when I see you" the four said almost in unison, causing all of them to look at each other before laughing for a while.
"Indeed, farewell fellows" Wu Xiaotian said as he starts walking away, his figure disappearing from their sight after a while.
