Global Cultivation: I Become Invincible by Drawing Sword for 10 Years - Chapter 23
Chapter 23: Fate Is Truly Wonderful
Just as Su Hao was packing up, there was a ding from outside and the door opened.
“Seems like Senior Su Hang is back. Let’s go out and get to know him.”
Su Hao clapped his hands and walked out.
Su Hang closed the dormitory door and saw someone walk out from another room. He thought to himself, ‘This must be a new student. My teacher mentioned to me before that a new student will be staying in my dormitory this year. I guess this must be it. I hope he’s someone I can get along with.’
“Hello, Senior. My name is Su Hao. I’m a freshman this year..”
Su Hao started introducing himself as soon as he walked out of the room but when he saw who it was, he was stunned.
Not only him, even Su Hang was stunned. The two of them did not expect such a coincidence.
“Senior! It’s you!”
Su Hao was the first to come back to his senses. His face was filled with surprise and he couldn’t help but sigh at the wonders of fate.
“Junior, I didn’t expect you to be my roommate. We are really fated.”
Su Hang came back to his senses as well, wearing his spring-like smile.
Su Hang was the enthusiastic senior who brought Su Hao to the stronghold ?c. He didn’t expect the two of them to meet again in this manner.
“That’s right. What a coincidence. We actually became roommates. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of us in the future.”
Su Hao extended his hand happily and understood what he meant.
“No, I’ll have to trouble you more in the future. Oh, right, let’s not stand here for now. There’s a sofa over there. Let’s go over and talk.”
“Okay, let’s go.”
The two of them sat on the sofa and began to formally introduce themselves.
“Senior, my name is Su Hao. I saw a name written on the door of your room. That’s your name, Su Hang, right?”
Su Hang nodded with a smile and said, “That’s right. There are so many coincidences. Not only are we in the same dormitory, both of us even have the same surname. How unexpected.”
“By the way, don’t call me senior anymore. After all, we’re brothers who will live together for a few years. Just call me Su Hang. I’ll call you Su Hao. How about that?”
“That’s great but you’re older than me. Let me call you Brother Hang.”
Su Hao said.
“That’s fine too. If you think it’s convenient, you can call me whatever you want.”
Su Hang smiled faintly. He hadn’t expected his junior to be so familiar with how to conduct oneself. Furthermore, he seemed to be quite a nice person and was someone worth befriending.
“Alright, I’ll call you Brother Hang then. Oh yeah, Brother Hang, are you playing League?”
Su Hao asked with a smile. The best topic for young people to get close to each other was the game. Su Hao deeply agreed with this point. As long as he played this hot game, then they would have a topic to talk about and they would be able to talk for a while. With that, their relationship would also rapidly rise.
“Ofcourse, I do, Su Hao. What about you?c”
As expected, Su Hang’s eyes lit up the moment he heard about the League. It was obvious that he was a loyal player.
“I’m Platinum One. Brother Hang, will you help me get to Diamond Rank! I’m currently Platinum One for the Life and Death Tournament!”
“No big deal! Under my guidance, you will be impeccable. Today, I’ll bring you to show off and we shall soar high!”
“Let’s go!!!”
Just when the two men were getting ready for a big fight, a loud gurgling noise sounded.
“Eh?”
Su Hao scratched his head in embarrassment. Other than breakfast, he hadn’t eaten lunch. He had been delaying until now. Although his physical body had reached the Tenth Layer of the Aura Refining Realm, there was no way he could abstain from eating!
Hah!
“Su Hao, you’re so interesting. Hahaha, let’s do it later. Come with me, I’ll bring you to the dining hall for dinner.”
Su Hang laughed out loud. This junior of his was really amusing. He reckoned that he would not be bored for the next few years.
“Hahaha, alright. To be honest, I’m starving. I only ate breakfast and didn’t even eat lunch. I’ve been starving until now.”
He patted his belly as he spoke.
“Hahaha, alright, let’s go. I’ll bring you to eat. To celebrate our affinity, I’ll treat you today. Don’t wait on a ceremony with me!”
Su Hang came up and placed his hand on Su Hao’s shoulder as he spoke in a heroic manner. It was obvious that he was planning to befriend Su Hao.
“Sure, Brother Hang, we’ll do as you say.”
After giving it some thought, he did not object to it. He was well aware that Su Hang had good intentions and it was obvious that he wanted to befriend him. Hence, Su Hao was naturally happy to see him do such. He felt that Su Hang was a decent person and wanted to get to know him well.
Some time later…
“Su Hao, this is the dining hall. Isn’t it luxurious?”
Su Hang smiled at Su Hao, anticipating his reaction.
“Impressive! This isn’t a dining hall, it’s a whole restaurant, a luxurious one at that! I’ve only seen restaurants of this scale on TV!”
If Xia Qingxue heard his words at this moment, she would definitely complain, “If you are more enlightened, I will bring you to eat different foods every day. ?check”
“Hehehe, let’s go.”
Su Hao followed Su Hang into the restaurant.
Looking at the decorations of the restaurant, the glamor almost blinded Su Hao’s eyes. It was filled with money. Hah!
“Su Hao, come here.”
Su Hang stopped infront of a shop and called him
“Sure.”
Su Hao walked over.
“Su Hao, do you want some steak? The first floor of the restaurant is filled with western food. Chinese food is on the second floor and the third floor is where the academy holds its parties. ?check”
“Parties?”
Su Hao was puzzled.
“That’s right. Our principal used to live overseas, so she holds parties in high regard. Hence, she arranged some events such as proms during the Cultural Festival.”
“I see.”
Su Hao was enlightened. He then asked, “Brother Hang, what do you pay for the food here?”
“Coins, of course. Even though cultivators use Spirit Stones, the restaurants in the school are all ordinary restaurants and there aren’t any Immortal Chefs stationed there, so they naturally use Coins.”
“Also, the restaurants are entirely open to the first to second graders. You juniors can eat the food, as well as some middle-aged and senior students who are hungry for food.”
Su Hang knew that Su Hao wasn’t pulled into the group chat, so he was willing to help him out.
“I see. That’s nice.”
Su Hao nodded. He could eat a big meal in school, so how could it not be good?
“Come and take a look. Do you want some steak?”
“Sure.”
After the two had their fill, they returned to the dormitory.
Su Hang, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly remembered that Su Hao lacked serious information regarding the college. Hence, he took the initiative to say, “Su Hao, have you entered the chat group yet? If you haven’t, let me help you with some of the more important things in the college.”
“Not yet. Something happened while I was registering. I forgot to tell the teacher that I was not added to the group.”
Thinking of the series of events that happened during the registration process, he felt a headache coming on. Fortunately, it was resolved at the end.
“Is that so? Then I’ll get to the main point. First of all, the most important thing for us to do here is to cultivate. When cultivating, there will naturally be a class teacher to teach us cultivation. You don’t have to worry about that.”
However, cultivation was also divided into specializations. There were Alchemists, Blacksmiths, Sword Cultivators, and Saber Cultivators. As such, the school would arrange for several Nascent Soul Realm elective teachers.
“Other than the compulsory training sessions every morning and the elective classes twice a week, the rest of the time is very free. Moreover, it’s fine even if you skip classes and are absent. After all, cultivation is your own business. The school will not care. At most, your cultivation practice will be kept at your own level.”?check
Su Hao listened attentively and nodded from time to time, showing Su Hang that he was listening.
“Then there’s the place where the students usually cultivate. It’s the Demonic Beast Forest that the principal spent a lot of effort to build. The level of the Demonic Beast there are at the Nascent Soul Realm!
The Demonic Beast Forest was divided into the Periphery, where Aura Refining Realm Demonic Beasts lived. Occasionally, Foundation Establishment Demonic Beasts would wander about. The Inner Region was almost entirely filled with Foundation Establishment Demonic Beasts and there was also a forbidden area. That forbidden area was where Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realm Demonic Beasts lived.
After the students entered to cultivate, the college would not give them any protection. If they were careless, they might lose their lives inside. The principal’s motto was that the flowers in the greenhouse could never grow into towering trees. Therefore, she created such a forest of Demonic Beasts for the students to practice and cultivate. The Demon Cores aquired by the students inside would all belong to the students.
“There are also resources such as, Spirit Herbs and so on. As long as you find them, they will all be yours.”
At first, Su Hao only thought that he had found a good place to practice his skills. However, when he heard that the Demonic Cores, Spiritual Plants and other resources were all given to the students, his eyes instantly lit up. He was just worried that he wouldn’t be able to find cultivation resources. This was just right. As long as he went to hunt those Foundation Establishment Demonic Beasts inside, wouldn’t he have a lot of Demonic Cores? Moreover, if he was lucky, he might even be able to find a few Spiritual Plants.
Su Hang’s gaze seemed to glow as he realized that Su Hao was interested in the Demonic Beast Forest. Thus, he said, “Su Hao, you’ve only just come to the academy to study. Before you reach the Fifth Layer of the Aura Refining Realm, you mustn’t set foot in there. The periphery of the Demonic Beast Forest is very dangerous. Do you understand? If you’re really curious and want to go, call me. I’ll accompany you there.”
“Alright, I’ll do my best.”
Su Hao smiled at Su Hang and was once again certain that Su Hang was someone he could get along well.
“Mm, that’s good. These are all rather distant matters. Let me tell you something that will happen soon. Half a month from now, the Freshmen Competition will be held. At that time, every new student will have the chance to go on stage to compete. It will be used to test the results of your half a month of cultivation.”
“Huh? Every new student? How long will the competition last?”
Su Hao was dumbfounded. How long would it take for the competition to end?
“Oh, you don’t have to worry about that. There are many arenas in our school, so there will be hundreds of competitions every day. Therefore, the competition will be over in three days at most.”
“ha ha… I see.”
Su Hao let out a bitter laugh. Once again, he was shocked by how extravagant the school was.
