Chapter 11: Failed… Again

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After all, it was just an unrelated person. Of course, he did not need to take it to heart.

Those people used to speak ill of him and spread rumors about him in school.

At that time, he was not in the mood to argue with those people. All he wanted was to get good grades and get out of his father’s control.

Now that the college entrance examination was over, he had nothing to worry about.

He didn’t mind doing something about it if they still insisted on holding onto him.

His expression darkened as he recalled his classmates’ behavior.

[Aiyo… Host, don’t be angry at those people. After a year, when the spirit energy recovers, those people won’t even live for three days.]

The system spoke at the right time, its voice somewhat gloating.

“Why do I feel like you’re gloating?” Jiang Yu asked, deadpanned.

[… No, I’m merely stating my stance with you! Those people are nothing compared to you, host!]

The system felt a little awkward.

It went along with the host’s words, so it shouldn’t have said anything wrong.

“Ignore them,” Jiang Yu shook his head helplessly, “On moral grounds, I still hope that they can live longer. Of course, if they want to die early by continuing to provoke me, it’s good for them to die early. Letting them live will be a disaster.”

[That’s right!] The system spun around happily. As expected of the host it chose, so cool!

However, the place they were going to was getting colder and colder. What was the host trying to do?

According to its data, wild beasts roam around in the mountains. The host had better not be bitten to death by them. Otherwise, it would have to find another host. Such a powerful host was rarely seen in a hundred years.

[Host, what are you looking for? If you are looking for spiritual energy, any place in the mountain will do.]

Jiang Yu rolled his eyes, “How come you don’t even know this?”

[What?] The system asked, confused as to why it was being scolded again. It really didn’t understand what Jiang Yu was trying to do.

“Even in the mountains, there is a difference between pure and impure spiritual energy. The further away you are from the crowd, the purer the spiritual energy is, and the more effective your cultivation will be,”

Jiang Yu explained patiently.

For a moment, he did not know whether he should cultivate it himself or the system. However, the system did not seem to be able to cultivate it either.

Jiang Yu’s thoughts were wild, but he soon received the system’s retort. [Host! I can cultivate too! I can also increase its level! Don’t underestimate me!]

“Then you should cultivate!” Jiang Yu suddenly stopped walking.

[But not now!]

Noticing that Jiang Yu had stopped, the system turned around and followed his line of sight. It actually found a waterfall.

The waterfall wasn’t small, and the sound of the water was loud. Jiang Yu also noticed that there was a puddle on the rock below the waterfall. It should have been caused by the strong force of the water.

Jiang Yu immediately thought of the cultivation methods in cultivation novels. Meditating under a waterfall was one of them. Perhaps, he could also try this method!

Without any hesitation, Jiang Yu immediately followed the stone toward the waterfall. The strength of the water almost threw him into the pool.

[Be careful!]

Just as the system warned him, Jiang Yu had already arrived at the spot at the bottom of the waterfall. It couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for its host.

The current was so strong…. Could its host’s small body withstand the pressure?

However, training under the waterfall was indeed a good way of training. It had originally wanted to explain, but it did not expect its host to be so knowledgeable. It did not even need to explain.

As expected, the host it chose was great! Or it was better to say that it was lucky!

The system was pleased with itself and then accompanied Jiang Yu to cultivate under the waterfall.

Time passed second by second. The waterfall was too strong, and no ordinary person could withstand it.

After enduring for three hours, Jiang Yu finally felt a trace of cold pain.

[Host! Hang in there! Perseverance is victory!]

The system could sense his body’s condition and was a little worried. For Jiang Yu, a beginner-level cultivator, it was not easy for him to persist for three hours. It would be difficult for him to continue.

“You don’t have to say it! I know I have to persevere!” Jiang Yu gritted his teeth as images raced through his mind.

His father was probably waiting for him to go back and inherit the family business and property!

He thought about how much effort he had put in just to get out of his father’s cage to come this far.

Was he going to give up and go back to listen to fate?

No! Absolutely not! He had to fulfill his dream!

Even if he couldn’t complete it now, he definitely wouldn’t go back to inherit the family business!

Perhaps it was because of his conviction, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.

The pain in his back was unbearable, but as long as he endured it…

He could feel that he was reaching his limit. As long as he could endure it, he would be able to break through and complete his mission.

However, if he wanted to complete the mission, he could also eat that medicinal pill. Moreover, it was much easier than this.

As soon as he had this thought, Jiang Yu immediately threw it out of his mind. He absolutely couldn’t be fooled by the system’s punishment!

That kind of shortcut may seem powerful, but in reality, it was just for show.

He did not want to be such a person!

[Host, why don’t you rest first? I feel that your body is in danger now.]

The system warned him. [What if something happens to your body?]

“Shut up!”

Jiang Yu gritted his teeth and persevered. Gradually, he felt the numbness on his back and a new force surging out of his body.

He was pleasantly surprised.

This level of cultivation was about to be completed! He just needed to hold on a little longer…

Soon, another half an hour passed.

The last point was always difficult to break through, but he could only persevere.

When Jiang Yu felt that he was about to succeed, the system’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Failure to break through to the first stage of the Body Tempering realm within 24 hours. Punishment: 9,999 Body Tempering pills.]

Jiang Yu felt his entire body relax as he let his body be swept away by the force of the water into the pool.

[Host!]

Jiang Yu was already tired but didn’t dare to relax for a moment. He quickly swam to the shore, his heart full of anger.

“I told you that this system mission was unreasonable!”

How could he possibly complete the mission so quickly if he did not rely on medicinal pills?

Seeing this, the system hurriedly urged, [So, host, you should just take the Body Tempering Pill in peace. It will be more efficient and your body will suffer less.]

He lay on the ground and rested for a long time. 9,999 Body Tempering Pills were already placed beside him.

This was clearly a ruse for him to eat these medicinal pills by force!

Was there really no other way?

Jiang Yu suddenly sighed, “I’ve never completed a mission on my own…”

In response, the system comforted him, [Host, that is very normal. In fact, your cultivation speed is considered to be very fast. Even if many people used pills before, they are still not as fast as you.]

He was still good?

Jiang Yu was a little speechless. He tilted his head to look at those medicinal pills and didn’t care anymore. He immediately sat up, picked up the Body Tempering Pill, and stuffed them into his mouth.

The system even considerately moved the medicine over very.
