c264: Probing

Zu An’s face was black like charcoal. The chances of getting a skill were too rare!

He finally got one, yet he ended up with this garbage.

Seems like it going to be one of those days…

Sure enough, other than Ki Fruits, there were only ‘thanks for playing’ messages.

He didn’t even get a single bottle of medicine.

He really wanted another bottle of Faith in Brother Spring!

He had no idea when Chen Xuan would pop up again. Knowing that guy, there was no way he wa giving up here.

If he had a bottle of Faith in Brother Spring, he could still bounce right back if he was unlucky.

Since he didn’t have this to count on, he could only always remain on guard.

This round of pulls netted him a total of 320 Ki Fruits.

Considering the odds, his luck was actually not that bad.

His mood improved a bit. While no one paid attention, he tossed these fruits into his mouth one after another.

His face immediately went rigid when he examined himself.

What the heck? Why did only a tenth of the formation fill up?

This was the most Ki Fruits he ate in one sitting!

He examined himself carefully, and then he noticed where the issue lied.

He was now already at the third rank’s eighth step. If the number of Ki Fruits needed for each formation increased in accordance with the fibonacci sequence, then he would need 2,584 Ki Fruits to reach the ninth step.

He only ate 320, so of course it would only fill up by a bit more than a tenth.

In reality, the seventh formation that needed 987 Ki Fruits and the eighth that needed 1597 Ki Fruits wasn’t something his Rage points could have easily filled.

It was still thanks to that bloodsoaked battle against Mi Li… but of course, that was just a one-sided butchering.

Under the help of the Heiress Ball of Delights, his body suffered countless fatal blows, slashed again and again, blood flying everywhere. Only then did the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra show its prowess, directly filling in two steps.

Trying to fill in these formations with just external help seemed like an extremely slow process.

It was already so hard for him to advance when he was only at the third rank. Once he climbed higher, wouldn’t the number of Ki Fruits he needed really reach astronomical digits? It seemed almost impossible to reach.

He couldn’t find a way to solve this issue no matter how he racked his head, so he gave up on thinking.

I’ll just cross that bridge when I get there.

The class unwittingly came to an end. His deskmate Wei Suo couldn’t hold himself back, immediately scooching over. “Boss, so how did the courtesan queen… taste?”

He wanted to ask this as soon as Zu An came back. But after seeing his locked brows and gritted teeth, he didn’t dare ask him anything.

Since Zu An was already back to normal, he immediately asked eagerly.

He was fully aware that Qiu Honglei was far outside his league.

But he could still share this divine experience indirectly with his boss!

All of the nearby students rushed over when they heard Wei Suo’s question. News of the courtesan queen’s choice had clearly already reached everywhere. All of them looked at him with gossipy eyes.

Zu An felt like it was a bit too embarrassing to say in front of all these hopeful eyes that nothing happened. As such, he immediately began to talk big. “It was obviously the best! Really a divine experience…”

He spoke whatever came to his head, throwing them some random plot from an extremely explicit web novel he read before.

Even though Brightmoon Academy had many students from influential families, there were also many from ordinary backgrounds. This ratio was higher in yellow class.

All of them were quite young too, so they didn’t have much experience in this field. Their blood began to boil as they listened, their faces and ears flushing red. Their eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred.

You have successfully trolled the yellow class for +66 +66 +66…

Zu An thought to himself these fellas really have no conscience. They’re getting a free audiobook here, but they still have the nerve to get angry.

Hmph, whatever. Out of favor for these Rage points, this young master won’t bicker with the lowly. You’re all forgiven.

A student ran over at this time to pass on a message. “Ah Zu, someone is looking for you by the gate.”

Everyone already got used to his nickname.

There were some who were already completely sucked in to his tale. When they heard this, they all became irritated, wondering who it was that was disturbing them.

When they turned around, they saw a traditional beauty in a long dress standing by the gate, waving at Zu An with a smile.

“Isn’t that the ninth ranked beauty Zheng Dan?”

“Truly a fairy level girl! Our class’ fuglies don’t stand a chance.”

“Her manners are so wonderful. This type of gentle and sweet-tempered woman is definitely a perfect wife candidate!”

“Keep dreaming man. She’s already engaged to Sang clan’s young master, and even if she wasn’t, you wouldn’t have a chance.”

“Then why is she here for Ah Zu? This isn’t even the first time.”

“Dammit, now that you mention it, is there some kind of scandal going on here too?”

Zheng Dan’s cheeks flushed from all of the whispered gossip, lowering her head in embarrassment. Her bashful and reserved appearance was imitated to perfection.
