160: Breakthrough to High Stage 160: Breakthrough to High Stage “`
After returning to the academy, Su Yuan rested for two days.
The month-long hunting trial, constantly searching and hunting down fugitives, was far more intense than casually hunting star beasts in the Transversal Mountain Range.
Even for Su Yuan, his body and spirit were already exhausted.
After resting well for two days, feeling the state of the star power within his body, Su Yuan directly headed to the Star Mist Hall.
At the registration window of the Star Mist Hall, it was still Zhang Chengyun on duty.
“Hmm, you’re here again so soon?”
Noticing Su Yuan approaching, Zhang Chengyun put down the thick book in his hand and looked over at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan greeted respectfully: “Hello, Teacher Zhang.”
Zhang Chengyun scrutinized Su Yuan for a moment and then nodded: “Your star power is abundant and refined, not far from high stage; not bad.”
Zhang Chengyun remembered that it had been only a little over three months since Su Yuan had broken through to the intermediate stage in the Star Mist Pool, and he had already reached this level again.
“So, are you here to use the Star Mist Pool today?”
“Yes.”
Zhang Chengyun sighed inwardly.
After all, young people with talent can be a bit impatient.
Shaking his head slightly, Zhang Chengyun said: “Go back.
I see that your star power hasn’t reached the point where you can’t advance any further.
Attempting a breakthrough now is 99% likely to fail, which will affect your next attempt.
Go back and practice peacefully for a month.
Then come back with enough academic points for 8 hours in the Star Mist Pool.”
If a breakthrough failed, the star power already refined in the star power vortex would also dissipate somewhat, causing a setback in the cultivation progress.
That would be a great loss.
“Thank you for the reminder, Teacher Zhang, but you misunderstood.
I’m not planning to break through today.”
Su Yuan smiled, took out his student card, and handed it over.
“I’ve made some progress recently and earned some academic points.
Please check them, Teacher Zhang.”
Earned some academic points?
Zhang Chengyun took the student card from Su Yuan and placed it in the card reader.
The reader immediately displayed a four-digit number of academic points.

“I didn’t expect that you could earn so many academic points…” Zhang Chengyun looked at Su Yuan, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
“So, you’re planning to use all these points for cultivation, right?”
“Correct, please guide me, Teacher.”
Zhang Chengyun thought for a moment: “Over a thousand academic points.
With your current state, it’s more than enough to break through to the high stage.
Although the concentration of star power in the Star Mist Pool should be as high as possible during a breakthrough, for regular cultivation, the concentration can be moderately reduced to extend cultivation time…”
Zhang Chengyun looked at Su Yuan and said: “First, cultivate continuously for four days at double concentration, eight hours a day.
This continuous high-intensity cultivation can maximize the effect of the high-concentration star power in the Star Mist Pool.
After a few days, when your star power reaches its limit, you can attempt a breakthrough.
At triple concentration, it still takes eight hours to break through to the Bronze High Stage…
By the way, can you withstand four times the concentration?”
Su Yuan thought for a moment and then nodded: “Yes.”
Previously, He Yanan had mentioned that if one’s constitution was good, the upper limit of the Star Mist Pool’s concentration could be increased.
Last time, when cultivating at three times the concentration, Su Yuan felt he could still endure it.
Increasing it by one more time should not be a problem.
Zhang Chengyun nodded: “Good, at four times the concentration, you only need to prepare for four hours during the breakthrough.”
“Cut the breakthrough time in half?” Su Yuan was quite surprised.
“Four times the concentration of the Star Mist Pool is almost the physical limit for the Bronze Level.
The closer you get to the limit, the more obvious the effect, especially during a breakthrough.
