Chapter 210: The World of Dreams (2/2)

As soon as he opened the cover of the dish, a tempting aroma assaulted his nose.

He had to admit that the chef of the hotel was probably top tier. Even the presentation of the meal was superb.

Jake was tempted to dig in, but he had to take his bath first.

He took a large apple from the fruits baskets and dragged himself to the bathroom.

Twenty minutes, he came out afresh and a new man.

Putting on a simple shirt and a pant, he walked to the cart and picked his plate, but before he could take his plate, he spotted Kaleyx sitting on his chair as she munched on her meal.

She stared back at him as he reveled in her meal. Her eyes said, ”what?”

Jake just brushed her off and proceeded to sit on his bed.

As a young lady, he found it strange that she would bother about eating before taking care of her body.

All the women he had met really worried about their bodies.

As if reading his thoughts, Kaleyx voiced out as she munched, ”You know, at this realm, a cultivator doesn't need to worry much about his body. The need to eat is lessened. The need to sleep is almost nonexistent. The body doesn't produce as much dirt as a regular person's body does.”

Jake knew she was right, but it had become a habit for him to worry about his body. Plus, just because there wasn't much dirt produced doesn't mean there isn't any.

He ignored Kaleyx and focused on his meal.

As he was eating, he heard Kaleyx ask him, ”Hey, who is this Cheyenne?”

Her words went right through him as he sharply turned to Kaleyx!

”Huh?” asked Jake.

He saw Kaleyx holding something like a newsletter, probably the one the breakfast team brought with them.

Kaley read what the newsletter had about her, ”It says, ”Girl Wonder. …...Young Girl from Aztec dominates the younger generation... Princess Cheyenne is possibly the strongest student the academy has had in two to five hundred years.....Girl Wonder took only a few months to reach the upper echelon of the sect.....Is there anything that can stop her?”.”

Her mouth twitched as couldn't bear it anymore, ”I reckon with this type of praise she's probably a god already or something.”

She looked at the facial drawing on the newsletter page and couldn't help being drawn to it.

It was like she knew who the face belonged to.

”Tell me, who exactly is she,” asked a very interested Kaleyx.

”Why would I know?”

”She comes from Aztec. Same as you” answered Kaleyx.

The more Jake acted strangely, the more she felt an interesting story behind it.

”Hmmmm,” Jake hummed.

He laid his head on his bed and scenes of his encounter with the princess began to play out in his head, ”Princess Cheyenne Aztec is a monster. Normally, one would expect a royal child to at least be talented but Cheyenne takes an extra mile from that. She is too talented, boasting of a mature mind comparable to old cultivators. However, she is a bit unique. Cheyenne Aztec doesn't really show off her power often. In fact, before the first time she showed her real strength, she was merely known as the notorious princess….”

His words flowed like honey as he had a lot of things to say about her. After all, he had witnessed her true strength first hand.

Listening to him, Kaleyx smiled, ”...sounds like she's wonderful. Also, I'm sensing a history between you two. I have never heard you say so much about one person.”

”Hmmm. You could say so. I have fought her twice,” informed Jake.

Kaleyx eyed him instantly, ”ehh, did you win?”

She knew Jake's strength. It was not fair to group him with the others.

However, she was surprised when she heard his reply, ”No, I lost both times. The second time was probably when I got to see her true strength.”

She had to ask, ”...and? ”

”It was not something one could take care of easily. She is like you. In fact, she is almost exactly like you,” smiled Jake

”Don't make jokes, Jakes. What exactly do you mean?” Kaleyx shot back.

She could feel a certain trepidation in her bones. Her blood boiled like she already knew the answer. Nevertheless, she wanted confirmation.

”I speak no lies. At first, I was the clear winner of the battle. I thought it was over, but suddenly, on the brink of death, she erupted with a reveling power that totally dominated my mind and body. In less than three seconds, I was fully defeated,” sighed Jake.

”What power was that?”

”I think you know it.”

”Tell me!”

”It was a bloodline power, except the bloodline was otherworldly. The power of a Celestial!”
