Chapter 346: Reaching Three Stars!
No matter how much Qin Hu and Lu Siya invested in the club, they could not compare to the mysterious boss who had donated one million Supernatural Coins and one hundred cultivation cabins.
Once five hundred broken-star superhumans decided to support their two friends and became famous because of it, the donor donated another two million Supernatural Coins and two hundred cabins to the club through the abnormal beast research center.
When Ye Xiaoxing told Meng Chao the figures, he was absolutely flabbergasted.
“Is the person... still unwilling to reveal his or her ident.i.ty?” Meng Chao asked tentatively.
“Yes. But the donor is very pleased with the development of the Broken Star Club over this period of time. The donor also regards your individual potential very highly,” Ye Xiaoxing said. “So, don’t feel burdened by this. You just have to devote yourself to training and polishing the Broken Star Club. This donation is nothing to the donor.”
Meng Chao could tell that the donor was definitely an incredibly thick coattail. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was an invincible coattail.
This was something that could be proven by the cultivation data he or she gave Meng Chao.
When he handed the data chip to his tutor, he, Gu Jianbo, and Li Yingzi studied it meticulously for a long time, and the more they looked into it, the more they felt chills down their spines.
They did not expect that there would still be so many flaws in the Ultimate Style and that it could be improved so much.
They had thought that it was a perfect spirit energy circulation model, but in the person’s eyes, it was full of flaws and had low efficiency.
In other words, if they modified the Ultimate Style based on the cultivation method the person gave them, the circulation of spirit energy and the output efficiency would increase by at least two times.
And the donor had also given a lot of cultivation suggestions that specifically targeted Meng Chao. He learned a lot from it.
“These cultivation suggestions were not given by normal Deity Realm elites.” Gu Jianbo and Li Yingzi studied the data for a long time before they came to the conclusion. “In all of Dragon City, there are fewer than five people who can provide such detailed and accurate modification suggestions to our cultivation system.
“That person’s realm is at least at the same level as Black Tortoise Zong Yue’s, and his fighting experience and fighting strength might even be higher!”
A top-tier fighter ranked at the top five in Dragon City? Meng Chao gasped in amazement.
But when he thought about it carefully, he was not surprised. It had been a full year since he awakened to his memories before the national college examination.
He had also revealed many future martial arts and cultivation methods, be it the Ripple Force or the One Hundred Saber Techniques.
Even though they were just basic martial arts and there was an air of inexpertness when he used them, the peerless fighters who stood at the top of Dragon City would definitely be able to tell that these cultivation methods had a value that surpa.s.sed the current era.
It was only logical that they would then regard him highly and invest in him.
Under Gu Jianbo and Li Yingzi’s guidance, Meng Chao began to practice the martial arts that the mysterious fighter decided to give him.
Even though Ye Xiaoxing had said that the donor had only given him a few casual pointers, they were difficult to practice.
There were all sorts of profound and complicated formulae in the data. Meng Chao also needed precise control over the circulation of his spirit energy in his spirit meridians and the timing and rhythm when he created his spirit energy magnetic fields...
It was as if the person had told Meng Chao to slide under a Nine-headed Crystalline Dragon when it roared. Then, all he needed to do was to swing his saber upward, and he would be able to cut the Nine-headed Crystalline Dragon’s stomach open. It was very simple.
There was a 1/10000 possibility of it actually working out.
If Meng Chao really wanted to do it, he needed extreme precision and being 120% in control of all his muscle fibers, nerve bundles, and bones.
He also needed to have strength to tear apart tigers with bare hands, along with a sharp weapon that could cut through metal as if it were mud.
The mysterious donor probably knew that Meng Chao would not be able to digest all the cultivation suggestions in a short period of time. It was a plan to train his overall strength for the next three or more years.
But Meng Chao did not have that much time.
He seized every second to get prepared in just a few short months so that he could fight to the death with the abnormal beast organization.
So, he could only cheat.
He tried using his contribution points to increase his Skillfulness with the Improved Ultimate Style given by the mysterious donor.
This revealed to him that the powerful person was indeed powerful. He was usually able to increase his Skillfulness by 1% or 2% by dumping from three hundred to five hundred contribution points into normal martial arts.
But there was not even the smallest splash after he tossed more than one thousand contribution points into the techniques provided by the mysterious donor.
But now... Meng Chao did not lack contribution points.
The greatest surprise brought by building the Broken Star Club was in the rapid increase of contribution points.
Every time he helped a broken-star superhuman discover his or her strength and confidence, he contributed to increasing the overall fighting strength of Dragon City and gained a corresponding amount of contribution points as a reward.
There were more than one hundred thousand members in the Broken Star Club. Even if some of them had not received personal guidance by Meng Chao before, practically all the members had watched his online cla.s.ses.
Even the gene medicine they used in their cultivation cabins was repeatedly modified in the past by Meng Chao and Gu Jianbo as Meng Chao endured torturous pain to test it.
Even if each member only gave Meng Chao from three to five contribution points, the points piled up and reached astronomical figures.
Meng Chao felt as if he had become rich overnight.
When he spent those contribution points, he did so lavishly and generously.
He used the contribution points in exchange for Skillfulness, and hence, even if he missed out on most of the professional cla.s.ses in his university, he could still score high marks in all of his professional courses.
He learned most of the cla.s.ses like that. He first memorized them without thinking them through, then used contribution points to slowly digest them.
He did the same thing in the courses from the training camps of the abnormal beast research department and Ghost Tribe. In just a few months, he obtained experience that others would not be able to gain in a few years or even a decade.
Meng Chao used his remaining contribution points to improve the Skillfulness of the skills taught by the mysterious donor.
If he could not make a splash with three thousand contribution points, he would spend ten thousand. If ten thousand were not enough, he would spend thirty thousand, then fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, and five hundred thousand!
Meng Chao remembered Qin Hu’s words.
Money was only money if you spent it. It was worthless paper, otherwise, and too tough to even use to wipe your b.u.m.
It was the same with contribution points. It was only if he spent them fully that he would have the strength and motivation to contribute more!
Hence, before the end-of-term exams of the second semester, Meng Chao smoothly but shockingly reached Spirit Gathering Realm and became a three-star superhuman.
When they were two-star superhumans, only some of their spirit meridians had a crystallized quality, which allowed them to create stronger spirit energy magnetic fields.
Once they became three-star superhumans, they could use the spirit energy gathered by the crystal spirit meridians to repeatedly refine some of their organs, and through metabolization, they could make the new organ cells stronger. They would then also go through crystallization.
The crystalized organs improved some of the body’s functions and the superhumans could display stronger divine arts. They could also activate anti-gravity magnetic fields to prepare for Heaven Realm.
Normally, superhumans did not refine a lot of spirit meridians while they were two-star superhumans. Usually, only one-third or a quarter of their spirit meridians would crystalize.
Hence, when they became three-star superhumans, not a lot of their organs could be nourished by spirit energy and crystallize.
Most of the superhumans only refined one or two organs, such as the heart, spleen, liver, lungs, kidney, mouth, nose, eyes, ears, tongues, limbs, or others.
Meng Chao mainly cultivated his branch meridians and was baptized by the Red Radiance Jades and Blue Origin Crystals. He also had his contribution points, so most of his spirit meridians and organs crystalized based on how his vitality magnetic field surged about.
In just one year, he managed to turn from a normal human to a three-star superhuman. He had risen by three levels, so it was inevitable that he felt a little smug.
But as he thought about it carefully, he had future cultivation methods, was baptized by the Red Radiance Jades and Blue Origin Crystals, was given a beast soul brand by a Deity Realm elite Black Tortoise Zong Yue, had been taught martials arts by a peerless elite who was much stronger than Zong Yue, and he had personally tossed an astronomical amount of contribution points to level up.
Even a husky would turn into the Howling Celestial Dog if it went through what Meng Chao did, right?
After thinking about it, Meng Chao abandoned the thought that he was a rare genius. But only a little.
He felt that he should still keep a low profile.
Fortunately, his cla.s.ses in the abnormal beast research department and Ghost Tribe taught him skills on how to restrain his spirit energy. He also learned how to activate his vitality magnetic field to neutralize the explosive force from his spirit energy magnetic field so that he would appear normal.
Skills like Walking Corpse could also make all the physiological reactions of a normal person disappear without a trace!
Hence, when his tutor, dean, chancellor, coursemates, broken-star superhumans, family members, friends, and various members of society were shocked by his rapid increase in cultivation realm, Meng Chao remained calm
He just said with a smile, “That’s nothing. I just cultivate with the mindset that I want to contribute to Dragon City, and I got a little lucky, that’s all.”
Meng Chao’s humility, modesty, and cordiality made everyone praise him.
His coursemates, however, all said, “Meng Chao is pretending again!”
The mysterious donor’s martial arts were really strong, and the help it provided to the Broken Star Club far exceeded the standards of a normal donation. Meng Chao then naturally thought about the problem that he might be taking advantage of the person.
It was not easy to get three million Supernatural Coins and three hundred cultivation cabins. There would definitely come a day when the person would make a series of requests to the Broken Star Club.
Since he or she was one of the top five leaders in Dragon City, the request the donor would make would naturally not be something trivial.
From a certain perspective, the donor was using the astronomical donation to bind the Broken Star Club to his or her side.
Even though the normal members did not need to bear any sort of responsibility, Meng Chao would take responsibility. He was not an ungrateful person, and under the donor’s guidance, he had become a three-star superhuman at miraculous speed. He was now close to the peak of Earth Realm.
Even so, he was not entirely bothered by this. The most important thing to him was to increase his strength.
He had to increase his fighting strength, the power of Superstar and the Broken Star Club, and his status in the abnormal beast research department to gain the right to partic.i.p.ate in the game that would decide Dragon City’s future.
As long as he could stop the apocalypse from becoming true, he would not hesitate even if he had to make a trade with the Devil.
