Chapter 37
Hyber Hotel.
In a VIP room.
Annie, Chief Charles, and Dean Carroll had been waiting in the hotel for a long time.
The dining table was full of dishes, and almost all the meat was from demon beasts. Hyber Hotel had contracted a warrior team to hunt demon beasts in the wilderness to provide meat for the hotel.
Of course, most of these demon beasts were first-grade.
Even so, the dishes made from the meat of demon beasts were still in short supply. Usually, they had to book a few days in advance.
The three of them sat around the dining table.
Annie held a knife and fork. It was her first time eating at the same table with two Grandmasters. She seemed a little reserved, but she was more worried about Andrew.
Chief Charles took a sip of wine and glanced at Annie. He comforted her again, “Don’t worry. Your brother is not weak. He should be fine in the outskirts of the wilderness.”
“That was a test. It can’t be compared to actual combat. How many geniuses in the past died early because they had no experience in actual combat?” Dean Carroll said.
Then, she remembered that Annie was here, so she turned her head. “I’m not saying that something bad will happen to your brother. I’m just saying that in the wilderness, anything can happen.”
Chief Charles snorted coldly. “You don’t know his assessment results.
“His Blood Qi and speed are normal. He barely passed the minimum standards of a third-grade fighter. But do you know his reaction speed test? It’s almost close to a middle-grade fighter!
“Do you think he won’t run away if he senses danger?”
Chief Charles paused and continued, “If you want to test him, you can try to start from the battle technique… it’s a little weak.”
It was just a passing comment, and he didn’t explain it in detail.
Carroll didn’t think too much either and nodded.
Most high school students would not come into contact with battle techniques. Only in university would there be teachers to teach them such skills.
“If his test results are so good, even if his battle technique is a bit weak, it’s normal. Since Chief Charles has said so, there is no need for the test.”
“Really?”
On the side, Annie, who had always been a little reserved, suddenly became overjoyed. “Dean Carroll, you mean… my brother can get the special enrollment quota of Stanford University?”
Cough, cough.
Chief Charles almost choked on his saliva.
He said with some embarrassment, “Dean Carroll, the entrance exam of your Stanford University is different from our warrior exam. If I make a wrong judgment and let you waste a special enrollment spot, it would be bad.”
He originally wanted Dean Carroll to suffer too.
If she didn’t conduct the exam, wouldn’t what he said be in vain?
It would be best to let Dean Carroll witness Andrew’s ten-meter-long Blade Qi battle technique for herself.
Afraid that Dean Carroll would regret it, Chief Charles changed his tone and said seriously, “I have something that I want Dean Carroll to help me with…”
…
At the door of the Hyber Hotel.
The moment Andrew stepped into the hotel, a system notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding, Congratulations, Host, for obtaining 860 strengthening points.]
It seemed that the John Brothers had sold all the monster meat.
Andrew stopped and checked the system interface.
[Name]: Andrew Doyle
[Age]: 18 years old
[Identity]: Martial Arts Training High School No. 3 student
[Cultivation Realm]: Qi Formation Third Grade (+)
[Cultivation Technique]: Nine-layered Thunder Blade, Infinite Innate Skill, Innate Five-elements Limitless Escape Technique (+)
[Strengthening Points]: 2,080 Points
[System Store]: Opened
[Lucky Draw]: 100 strengthening points for one lucky draw
[Storage Space]: 1 cubic meter (+)
“My cultivation is the foundation of whether I can survive in the wilderness or not.
“Moreover, when the cultivation advances to the fourth-grade of the Qi Formation realm, one would be considered to have stepped into the middle stages. One would pass the rookie status Immortal Cultivation, touching the threshold of true Immortal Cultivation.”
Andrew’s heart was burning with passion as he thought of something.
“Ding!”
“Your cultivation has been raised to the fourth grade of the Qi Formation realm. Strengthening points -1000.”
Then, it was the Nine-layered Thunder Blade.
Although the 20-meter-long Lightning Blade Qi was powerful, it was still too short. It was just like the Gale team’s Liebert. If the opponent’s speed was too fast and he ran more than 20 meters away in an instant, wouldn’t he have to catch up with the opponent before he could slash?
“Ding!”
“Your Nine-layered Thunder Blade has been raised to the third level of great success. Strengthening points -500.”
Awesome!
Andrew felt that his entire body was filled with power.
His Qi exploded.
His cultivation technique was upgraded.
If he were to fight against the Gale Squad now, he wouldn’t even need to use the Innate Five-elements Limitless Escape Technique.
“When I was in the second level of the Qi Formation realm, because of the addition of my Qi and Nine-layered Thunder Blade, I was able to kill Black Wolf, who had just entered the fourth grade.
“Now, I’m already at the fourth level of the Qi Formation realm, my Nine-layered Thunder Blade has reached the great success stage, and my battle prowess has increased more than tenfold…
“Hmm?”
Andrew felt the abundant Blood Qi in his body.
No.
He was afraid that he had made a mistake.
His combat power had increased by more than ten times. Didn’t that mean… his attack power was even stronger than a peak fifth-grade martial artist? He could even contend with a sixth-grade martial artist for a while.
He could cut a building cut in half at his current level.
“No, I can’t think like that. Ordinary martial artists of the fifth-grade are too weak. Only someone as strong as Chief Charles can be called a real martial artist. Even if he suppressed his cultivation, I wouldn’t be able to defeat him.”
Andrew clenched his fists and said solemnly, “That’s right. I can’t be short-sighted. If I want to compete, I’ll compete with an expert like Chief Charles!”
