"Wenren Yu?"
"For normal people, yes, it's fast," Wenren Yu replied after a while. He just realized that he answered in his mind when he heard Lin Yun asked him.
Lin Yun arched his eyebrows. Thinking about how many disciples in the sect couldn't even reach Body Training Rank 10 even though they have spent a few years, he realized that their progress was indeed fast. Thanks to the cultivation resources that they got from Elder Wang along with their own rigorous training, they didn't lag that much behind.
However…
"But in this case, wouldn't it mean that everyone who have resources can advance so fast?"
"Yes and no." Wenren Yu smiled. "Just like if you try to give a diamond to the pig. Even though diamond is a valuable item, in the hands of a pig, what worth could it have to the pig?"
The comparison only made Lin Yun speechless. He was thinking that Wenren Yu was about to say something genius, yet he was left with something like that. Shaking his head, Lin Yun paid attention back to his brother's fight.
However, he understood what Wenren Yu said internally. Those without good talent nor comprehension wouldn't be able to utilize the resources he was given. Eventually, he might not be able to even cultivate properly and thus wasting the resources he was given.
How unfortunate.
Swish! Thud!
Lin Xiao didn't have any interest to prolong his fight with Luo Lan. After sidestepping, he tripped Luo Lan's leg and made the brat fell down. With that flurry of attack, one would find it difficult to get close to Luo Lan, but Lin Xiao did so effortlessly.
"You…"
"You're no longer my match, Luo Lan," Lin Xiao said calmly. For some reason, he felt calm when he fought against the hot headed Luo Lan. In the past, he would surely be agitated and happy.
But after fighting so many powerful beasts and also meeting several Foundation Establishment Cultivators, he no longer had much interest in these youngsters who were only all talk.
Luo Lan's face flushed. He sat down in annoyance. "Damn you, if only I'm a Core Disciple, I'll surely not lack behind you at all."'
"You're not Core Disciple?" Lin Xiao was stunned when he heard Luo Lan's words. If he was not wrong, Luo Lan was still someone who was quite good, right? How come someone like him didn't reach the qualification to become Core Disciple?
Luo Lan looked at Lin Xiao and snorted. "I'm only Inner Disciple. My Master used to be a Core Disciple but now I don't really have any Master."
Master?
Lin Xiao thought hard then he recalled the female representative who came with Luo Lan back then. If he had to be honest, he had already forgotten the detail of what had happened a year ago.
"Luo Mingyue?" Lin Xiao blurted out.
Luo Lan was stunned once more. "You know her?"
"She's the female representative back then, right?"
"Yes…" Luo Lan gritted his teeth. The loss of his master was quite devastating for him, but he knew that it was inevitable in this cruel cultivation world. Besides, his sect was known to let the people in the sect learnt how to control their feelings well and never ever let them have problems with feelings.
Feelings were unnecessary.
What Luo Lan hated the most was simply the fact that his resources to cultivate was reduced so greatly. It hindered his cultivation and made him unable to advance faster like he used to be.
His progress began to slow down and his peers caught up to him.
"Are you planning to join Sun Dragon Academy?" Luo Lan asked abruptly.
Sun Dragon Academy?
Lin Xiao was stunned. If he was not wrong, it was the name of the top academy in the entire Sun Kingdom. Everyone wanted to go there. Heck, if only it was possible, even the elders were begging to be able to enter the academy.
However, Sun Dragon Academy only accepted the genius of geniuses. No matter how talented one was, if they couldn't get accepted into Sun Dragon Academy, they would be mocked. After all, Sun Dragon Academy was like the gate that separate those who were only slightly genius and those who were true genius.
But even then, there were still many geniuses who died within the academy. After all, genius could only become true geniuses when they managed to prevail and entered higher stage.
Before that, they were nothing more than seedlings.
"You're going to join the academy?" Lin Xiao asked, his voice strange.
If Luo Lan can get accepted, someone like me should be able to, right?
"That's my plan." Luo Lan snorted. "Just see. After I got accepted into Sun Dragon Academy, I'll trash you so badly that you don't even have the guts to show your face in front of me ever again."
"You? Do you really think that you can do something like that?"
"Stop mocking me!"
"Bah!"
"You!"
"Weak!"
"You're the weak one!"
However, Luo Lan was truly not a match against Lin Xiao. The fight just now had already proven that, so Luo Lan no longer tried to attack Lin Xiao aside from the vocal battle they had.
On the bush, Lin Yun and Wenren Yu's expression had turned strange. They clearly recognized Luo Lan but to think that Luo Lan would be reduced to be nothing more than someone who could talk without attacking…
It seemed inconvincible.
"At least, Master still hold back and give face to Luo Lan," Wenren Yu finally said.
Lin Yun nodded absentmindedly. If he was not wrong, the message he always told his brother whenever the latter was about to fight was to give the opponent's face. To think that it would happen so soon, he was quite stunned.
"But he wouldn't grow this way."
"Yes?"
"We should find Foundation Establishment Cultivator to go against Lin Xi… I mean Master if we want him to grow even stronger."
Lin Yun: "…"
