172: The King of Involution finally added another cyclone

Beast Taming Bureau Dormitory.

"Finally, another Qi Vortex!"

Feng Zhi, who had been diligently cultivating for days, cheered behind his closed door. It was incredibly difficult to add another Qi Vortex!

To be honest, this was the fastest he had ever increased a Qi Vortex. In the past, it would take at least a year to cultivate one, but these last two times had been very quick.

This was undoubtedly related to the rapid improvement from cultivating on the green train, but it also had to do with the train exclusive water he had been drinking recently.

The train exclusive water had indeed greatly improved his meridians and Qi Cavitys. Although it couldn't elevate his Qi Cavitys from ordinary to low-grade Qi Cavitys, his cultivation speed had become noticeably faster than before.

What a pity, the train exclusive water wasn't available every day. If he could drink a whole bottle every day, he might be able to reach Level Four very quickly.

Currently, he was only two Qi Vortexes away from breaking through to a Level Four martial artist.

If this were in the past, it would have been an unthinkable feat.

Thinking of this, Feng Zhi turned and squatted down, retrieving a small box from under his bed and unlocking it with a key.

"Click," inside was a stack of spirit stone vouchers and some loose spirit stones.

Feng Zhi rubbed his hands together, then took out these items and counted them.

"Three hundred, four hundred... one thousand, one thousand and fifty... a total of two thousand low-grade spirit stones."

After counting, Feng Zhi felt an indescribable mix of happiness and unhappiness. He had saved these two thousand low-grade spirit stones for a whole year.

Actually, if he didn't take the train every day, he could have saved more, but this was all he had accumulated so far.

"I've decided, I'll buy an Martial Enhancement Pill!"

Feng Zhi hugged the box in his hands, took out a thousand low-grade spirit stones and put them into his storage bag, then locked the box again and hid it under the bed.

To level up as quickly as possible, he still needed to continue saving money.

He knew the effects of the Martial Enhancement Pill: after consumption, it could increase two Qi Vortexes for martial artists below Level Five. As long as he took one Martial Enhancement Pill, he could immediately go from Level Three to Level Four, which was fantastic!

At the same time, Wang Yi, who had already broken through to a Level Four Beast Tamer, was undergoing special training. His master had been very busy these past two days and couldn't look after him, and he hoped to truly help his master one day, so he didn't want to fall behind in his training.

They had been training all day, and the Mystic Horned Beast was exhausted.

"Chirp chirp chirp? (When can we rest?)" The Mystic Horned Beast now only regretted not being a canine fierce beast; otherwise, it would truly want to stick out its tongue to help dissipate heat.

Tired, so tired.

Why was it that its master usually hated special training, but today he voluntarily created a special training plan for himself, dragging it along to exhaustion?

"Just a little more training, then we can rest soon."

Wang Yi was very strict with himself, and the same applied to the Mystic Horned Beast.

The Mystic Horned Beast drooped its head dejectedly upon hearing this and continued training.

Just then, Feng Zhi came downstairs, looking relaxed. Seeing Wang Yi and the Mystic Horned Beast still training, he said, "Isn't it too late to still be training?"

Upon hearing Feng Zhi's words, the Mystic Horned Beast seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

However, Wang Yi shook his head: "We can't rest yet; we'll finish today's training plan soon."

Mystic Horned Beast: "..." Can't rest, so wronged.

Seeing Wang Yi's relentless effort, Feng Zhi suddenly felt that he shouldn't be complacent just because he had gained another Qi Vortex; he was clearly the one who trained the hardest!

So, without another word, he quickly turned and went back upstairs, muttering, "No one can train harder than me."

He must be the one who trained the hardest!!

Meanwhile, far Outside the Bastion of 155 Fortress, Xiao Shen was also not resting.

It wasn't that he didn't want to rest, but Zheng Jinfeng was simply too relentless, sparring wave after wave. Xiao Shen and Liu Ling'er took turns, yet they couldn't make Zheng Jinfeng feel tired.

She was like a machine that didn't know how to stop, constantly operating in her position.

Until an external force intervened.

"Sister-in-law, it's so late, it's time to rest. Look, my arm is too tired to even lift."

Liu Ling'er shook her right arm, indicating she had no strength left.

During this period, they had been undergoing "extreme training," which meant expending all their energy in a day, then forcing themselves to unleash more potential.

So, not only had Zheng Jinfeng made great progress, but Liu Ling'er and Xiao Shen also learned many combat techniques from it.

"Alright then."

Zheng Jinfeng nodded. She wasn't completely untired after a day, but she was so eager to become stronger quickly that she always seemed tireless.

"Tomorrow, we'll get up early to buy water. The effect of drinking a bottle of water is much stronger than our long daily training sessions."

Liu Ling'er wiped the sweat from her forehead. The weather was hot, and even at night, it was still easy to break a sweat.

The train exclusive water's effect was indeed good, but that was only for Liu Ling'er and Zheng Jinfeng.

It didn't have much effect on Xiao Shen.

So now, every time they bought water, Xiao Shen gave it to the two of them and didn't drink it himself.

However, his strength had also greatly improved. He could feel that he would soon be able to add another Qi Vortex.

"If only I had a handy weapon..."

Xiao Shen touched the long sword at his waist and muttered to himself.

This sword was made for him by Xiao Zhenxuan three years ago and had been used for three years.

However, due to its inferior material, Xiao Shen now found it difficult to use.

He had inquired at the blacksmith's shop in the guild; forging a sword with better material not only required rare ores but also high-grade beast crystals, at least Level Five.

He did have Level Five beast crystals, but to be honest, he felt that the so-called better-material weapons displayed in the blacksmith's shop weren't particularly special.

It was a pity he couldn't refine weapons himself; otherwise, as long as he found a few pounds of rare ores and combined them with the pile of beast crystals they had collected, would he still worry about not forging good weapons?

According to Old He, there were hardly any skilled Weapon Refiners in the guild's blacksmith shop, and the weapons they forged were both expensive and difficult to use.

However, Old He himself didn't even have a weapon, so Xiao Shen didn't know what he was using as a reference for his statements.

But he knew one thing: Old He wouldn't harm him. Since Old He said the weapons made by the guild's blacksmith shop were bad, then they were bad.

It was better to first collect rare ores and high-grade beast crystals. When he eventually encountered a good Weapon Refiner, he would ask them to help forge a weapon... Night fell.

"Dad, is the person we're meeting this time really reliable? What if it's like Director Li again..."

Xiao Yue now had little confidence in the Xiao Family.

After the fallout with Director Li, some people left the Xiao Family. Xiao Zhenxuan wanted to stop them, but he couldn't. There weren't many left to begin with, and now was precisely the time when they were short-staffed...
