At ten o’clock in the morning, Jack Clark was woken up by a phone call.
“Jack, 1 just received a transfer message of 340,000 and the note reads [For student Jack Clark), what’s going on?” Doris Raven sounded a little panicked on the phone.
She didn’t know what Jack had done for someone to transfer so much money to him all at once.
Howard Lee transferred the money from the Mutated Black Bull so quickly.
Jack, somewhat surprised, reassured her, “Mom, don’t worry, it’s the money I got from killing a Mutated Beast with my classmates yesterday. It’s clean and legal.”
“Hunting a Mutated Beast?”
On the other side of the phone, Doris was stunned and even more surprised, “Didn’t you go to the Koroya Trial? How did you end up killing Mutated Beasts? Are you injured?”
“I’m not hurt. It was just a coincidence that we encountered this Mutated Beast while on a mission yesterday, so we killed it casually.”
“As long as you’re not hurt.” Doris on the other side of the phone breathed a sigh of relief.
Knowing that the money was legitimate, Doris felt better and suggested, “Jack, I’ll keep this money for you first, and you can use it to buy a house and get married after you graduate.”
“Uh… aren’t you thinking too far ahead?” Jack said, somewhat amused.
Marriage was too far off for him.
However, he had heard a woman tell him this before, asking him to save his salary to buy a house and get married.
At this thought, Jack felt a little moved.
After a slight silence, Jack softly said, “Mom, you don’t have to save this money. I think you can hire someone to redo the inside and outside of the house.”
“For example, repair the missing ceramic tiles on the outer wall and fix the peeling and cracked walls in the living room.”
“Also, the washing machine broke down twice last month, so let’s just replace it, as well as other old appliances…”
Before he could finish, Doris interrupted, “It doesn’t matter about the renovation. It’s fine the way it is now. You worked so hard to earn this money, so it shouldn’t be wasted.”
Jack persuaded her, “Mom, you don’t have to save this money. I am already at the True Martial Second Layer Heaven and will break through to the Third Layer Heaven in less than two months.”
“By then, when 1 join the Mutated Beast Trials in the second grade, killing a Mutated Beast will earn me hundreds of thousands. This money is nothing.”
“Moreover, Jim has been eating more and more lately, so we can treat him better with the food at home.”
“When my strength is stronger in the future, I’ll let him eat Mutated Beast Meat every day to establish a solid foundation in cultivation, so he can be ahead of other classmates when he enters high school.”
Jack used to wonder why the initial physical constitution of Justin Welan was so high. The reason is that they had started eating Mutated Beast Meat early on.
Of course, they ate the gentler energy Mutated Beast Meat, which was mild in energy content.
If ordinary people ate the powerful Mutated Beast Meat, indigestion would cause death.
And because ordinary people have poor absorption capacity, they need to eat for a long time to slowly improve their physique. This is also why Mutated Beast Meat is so expensive.
Under Jack’s bright description of their future, Doris finally agreed to renovate the house as he requested.
When she returned to the office, the smile on Doris’s face could have been seen by a blind man.
Sister Vernon, who was sitting across from Doris, couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Jenny, did you encounter some good fortune? You look so happy.” Doris happily replied, “Didn’t 1 just receive a text message on my phone? The transfer notification of over 300,000 scared me.”
“What, 300,000!”
“Jenny, where did you get the money?” The surrounding colleagues exclaimed in amazement.
Jenny laughed, “I was shocked too. Since the transfer note had my son’s name,
I called him.”
“Then 1 found out that it was the money he and his classmates shared after killing a Mutated Beast, and Jack said he would break through to the Third Layer Heaven in just a few months.”
Sister Vernon across from her was shocked, “Breakthrough to the Third Layer Heaven in just a couple of months!? Jenny, hasn’t your son been in high school for just over two months!?”
Her son had also practiced cultivation when he was in high school a few years ago, but he failed to achieve Foundation Establishment due to poor talent, so she knew a bit about cultivation realms.Many geniuses at South Sky Martial Height only manage to break through the Third Layer Heaven in their sophomore year.
Doris Raven, who had no concept of cultivation speed, nodded and said blankly, “Yeah, it’s only been a little over two months.”
At this point, another colleague hesitated and said, “I remember you mentioned last week that your son went to the Koroya Trial.”
“My husband works in education, and 1 heard that South Sky Martial Height did send some freshmen to the Koroya Trial, but only a few geniuses could sign up.”
“Hmm, Jack broke through the Second Layer Heaven some time ago, and he even participated in the Freshman Ranking Tournament, ranking 49th in grade.”
Other colleagues immediately exclaimed, “Jenny, 1 didn’t expect your son to be a genius.”
“Yeah, and he’s 49th in his grade, too. That’s amazing.”
Many colleagues congratulated Doris Raven and spoke with envy.
Hearing the noise outside, the office supervisor furrowed his brows and walked out, but he soon returned with a smile on his face after standing outside the crowd for a while.
Jack Clark didn’t know about all this, and after being awoken by the phone call, he simply sat up. Meanwhile, Justin Welan was still sound asleep on the other bed.
Holding his mobile phone, Jack hesitated for a moment and clicked open the Trial Group, then clicked on Lori Parma’s avatar to start a private chat.
“Teacher, do you have time now?”
Lori Parma’s reply came quickly, with a message sent in just a few seconds.
“Jack, what’s up?”
Jack asked curiously, “Teacher, when I followed you guys up the mountain last night, 1 noticed that the weapons in your hands seemed a bit different from ours.”
“And I don’t think you guys had weapons with you when you got off the car…?”
“I know what you want to ask.”
Facing Jack’s inquiry, Lori Parma answered readily, “As cultivators, we naturally have weapons too, but we usually keep them in Sumi Equipment to nourish them.”
“That’s a kind of equipment containing space, and after you break through the Fourth Layer Heaven, you can exchange for it, so don’t be curious.”
“In addition, our weapons belong to Extraordinary Equipment, which is different from the ordinary alloy weapons of freshmen, and can allow us to exert greater combat power.”
“Extraordinary Equipment!? Jack’s tone was a bit shocked.”
Of course, what shocked him was not the strength of Lori Parma’s weapons, but the idea of attribute strengthening.
Lori Parma didn’t know about these, and reminded him, “Extraordinary Equipment is also the weapon-involved after the Fourth Layer Heaven, so it’s useless for you to learn about these now.”
“However, if you feel that ordinary alloy weapons are too weak, you can try using True Strength to temper battle armor or weapons after breaking through the Third Realm.”
“Although weapons tempered solely by True Strength are not as strong as Transcendent weapons, they are more solid and sharp than ordinary alloys, and I will send you the tempering techniques later.”
“But under normal conditions, 1 don’t recommend you doing this, as it will slow down your cultivation progress, and I wouldn’t have told you if you hadn’t asked me.”
“Compared to tempering weapons with True Strength in the Third Realm, it’s more valuable to break through the Four Layer Heaven and smelt Transcendent weapons earlier, as the former was eliminated 20 years ago.”
After that, Jack asked some more cultivation questions and put down his phone with a faint smile on his face.
Lori Parma’s words just now had resolved some of the concerns he had after strengthening his battle armor.
Although the strengthened armor was very defensive, it also risked exposing some of his secrets.
After all, if everyone else’s armor gets damaged in battle and yours doesn’t, anyone would be suspicious.
Then there’s the issue of the armor’s color changing after being strengthened, but luckily he thought of an excuse at the time causing the serious atmosphere of the trial to be a bit off.
Now, there’s a better excuse to cover it up, and he’s about to break through the Third Realm soon.
Jack got up, tidied up, put on the black and red-trimmed military uniform given by the military, and prepared to go to the dining hall to eat… breakfast, and then exchange life crystal for a breakthrough.
As they had eliminated the main forces of the Evil God Sect Cultists and rebels in Lester City last night, Jack and the others were given two days of rest time.
And due to the reduced threat, their mission would be adjusted at that time, and they wouldn’t have to patrol every day..
