31 I’m With A Group of Perverts ? (1/2)
After they left Jun made a couple calls. He called up Bu Fan and had him make a reservation for his party of four but said 8 just incase. Even through he traded it for a quantum room it doesn't mean that they literally seal off a room and wait for him to use it. It just means whenever he calls a room will be available for him even if they have to offended another party.
Bu Fan was extremely quick in dealing with the matter as not even 5 minutes passed by he already sent back a text tell Jun that the reservation is for tomorrow at 2 PM till he decides to leave. Jun then switches phone and texted Xintong to tell her the time and date.
After dealing with these minor matters like it was nothing Jun went back to cultivating. His aim was peak nascent realm. With his father pulling his support in terms of money Jun is currently pretty much a beggar in this world with one huge asset going for him. That would be connections. In the business world a person can have all the talent they want but without connections it is all for naught. However talent and connections do go hand in hand since with a genius level talent creating those connections for inevitable but would require time and effort.
After one night of cultivation he broke through to the sixth stage of the nascent.
”Still too slow,” Jun mutters. If anybody else heard that they would probable puke blood on the spot.
Afterwards he began to emulate sword movements in his head. The scenario would play over and over in his head but there were no epiphany moments.
”I looks like I really have to go look for a sword manual to practice. The previous sword art I practice is too low leveled,” Jun sighs. Just like everything in this world there are rankings to everything. An example would be herb ranks. The lowest ranking would be mortal, then earth, sky, and the never before seen Emperor's rank.
Then spirit beast which are technically the descendants of fiend-gods are rank from 1 to 9 with each corresponding to the human level cultivation ranking.
As for martial techniques, weapons manual, cultivation methods and anything related to that field it is ranked by cultivation realms. Then it is separated into lower, mid, and upper. The reason these are divided into such is because of the power level. It is just like in school where each subject is divided from grade 1 to 12. This is due to difficulty and the requirement of a foundation to learn the more complex knowledge. For example you would not expect a first grader to learn twelfth grade math. There are exceptions to the rules. Those exceptions are call geniuses where they are able to absorb and theorize those knowledge at an abnormal speed. Even so it just means they can learn faster. They still have to learn it from grade one to twelve. So even if a kid is only in grade one as long as they are taught each grade's subject one level a time by the time they reach grade twelve they can learn it with ease as they have a solid foundation to draw inspiration and knowledge from.
It is never good to skip the foundation building and head straight to the essence of a a subject. One must learn to walk before they can run. Even a genius mathematician would not be able to solve calculus questions without first learning the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
For Jun he has a solid foundation in sword arts as his father provided him with the best sword arts that are known to have the littlest flaw. Except Jun was never to keen or had the patience to practice it as it doesn't do anything for his pill forging. The reason he is so keen on learning it now is that he has someone he wants to protect whether he admits it or not.
Due to that sighs to himself again and disregard everything he learned about sword art so far and restarted from zero. He needs to built a stronger foundation if he is to master the Sword Dao.
Before he knew it was already 11 in morning. He decided to take a small two hour nap. Doesn't really need it but still feels nice to sleep for a bit.
When he woke up at 1 he noticed that he miss a couple calls from Xintong.
Knock! Knock!
Speak of the devil Jun thought. With his soul strength he already sensed her coming up the stairs.
”One sec!” Jun shouts. After getting dressed really quick he sprinted to the door like an olympic runner.
”Hey,” Jun said while opening the door.
”Good morning Lin!” Xintong greeted with a dazzling smile.
”Morning.”
”I tried to call you but you didn't answer thought you might have been cultivating so I came over to tell remind you. Everyone else is waiting for you at the shop.”
”Oh no prob. I'm ready to go.”
”Lets go then. Everyone is excited to go too!” Xintong said.
”Thats good.”
”And I hope you don't mind but I also invited Ximei along.”
”Oh is it the girl with Myriad eyes?”
”Yeah.”
”Thats fine the more the merrier. I reserved a room for 8 people.”
”Sorry I should have asked first,” Xintong still said apologetically.
”Don't worry about it. I don't know anybody here that I could bring along. You're really doing me a favor by adding more people,” Jun said. Truthfully Jun doesn't have many people he would call true friends in this city, Aside from his sisters and parents he spent most of his time alone. If not it would be with a group of pill addicts discussing what combination of ingredients would create some really interesting pills.
There was the accidental viagra pill his ”friends” created that lead to many holes in his apartment. Then there was the sex change pill when they were trying to create a transformation pill/potion. Basically it was a dark path for that group death seekers. Even so Jun enjoyed the experience and discovered many unconventional combinations and forging methods.
When they met up there were some greetings and Ximei who was shying away from Jun out of fear. She still remember what Jun looked like in his beast mode.
”Ximei Lin isn't that scary he is a nice person,” Xintong tried to mediate.
”Sorry about before,” Jun apologized.
