A man walked out of the Three Step Tower with a confident stride. His face seemed to be hinting that the whole world was within his grasp.
”HAHAHA, I, Guan Ying, have finally improved my second Element to the Intermediate Level! I can finally train on the same team as Wen Jing and crush that asshole Xu Dongqiang. Uncle is going to be impressed too, how splendid!...” The man who referred to himself as Guan Ying burst out laughing in excitement.
Meanwhile, a man in simple clothing and unkempt hair was also walking with a confident stride and joy on his face.
”HAHAHA, I finally did it. I am a f**king genius!” The man was laughing even more crazily.
Guan Ying was interested in making friends. He immediately went up to the man after seeing that he was around the same age as him. ”Brother, it looks like your hard work has paid off too. Mine did too, but I didn't really have anyone to celebrate with. It's noon, so my stomach is already grumbling. Why don't we go have some drinks and celebrate together? I know a barbecue place, I can guarantee that it's one of the best!”
”Why not?” the man agreed.
”Come, haha, it's better to have someone to celebrate with. By the way, brother, which school are you from?” said Guan Ying.
”The Fire School,” replied the student.
”Fire School, I heard everyone there is extremely violent. However, I swear I saw flickers of lightning around you when you came out just then. I thought you were from the Lightning School,” exclaimed Guan Ying.
”Mmm, Lightning is my secondary Element,” answered the student.
”Damn, Lightning and Fire, they say it's the most violent combination. I am Guan Ying from the Light School. Lunch is on me, we can look after one another if anything happens… so your Lightning Element has also improved. Lightning and Fire are pretty scary together. Congratulations, I bet you've worked hard for it?” said Guan Ying.
”Yeah, I almost failed to expand my Lightning Element into a Galaxy. I f**king went all out when I thought about all the money I would lose if I failed the process. I almost fried my own brain. Luckily, I managed to break the barrier in the end. If the barrier was just a bit tougher, I might just be a retard now,” replied Mo Fan.
Guan Ying burst into laughter upon hearing it. He patted Mo Fan on the shoulder and said, ”Brother, you must be very happy. You even mixed up your Nebula with a Galaxy. Galaxy is for Advanced Level. Yours is a Nebula. The Advanced Level is like a dream for us. I don't even know if I can become an Advanced Magician in the future...”
Mo Fan remained silent.
Guan Ying soon realized the strange atmosphere. He looked at Mo Fan and asked with a strange expression, ”Well, did you seriously improve to the Advanced Level?”
Mo Fan nodded with a smile. He was aware that he should not be too high-profile.
Guan Ying's expression changed immediately, but he still forced a smile and said, ”You are only around my age. How are you an Advanced Magician? Please don't trick me like that...”
Guan Ying tried to inspect Mo Fan's cultivation with his will. Normally, Mo Fan could have stopped someone else from probing his cultivation, but he had just had a breakthrough. He needed to share the joy with someone, so he did not stop the man.
As he thought, in just a few seconds, Guan Ying's expression suddenly turned indescribable. He even froze in his tracks.
The joy he had from breaking through to the Intermediate Level was gone within an instant. It was replaced by lightning strikes shattering his fragile heart.
-I don't want to live anymore!-

The barbecue place that Guan Ying had in mind was not bad at all, but for some reason, the man did not really eat much, even though he looked like he was really starving when he first came out of the Three Step Tower.
