Looking at Mo You and Mu Yuzhu’s curious expressions, Mo Xiaobai revealed a mysterious smile.

“Dad, you don’t have to buy a beginner level refined force technique anymore.”

“What?”

Mo You was stunned for a moment. He frowned slightly and looked at Mo Xiaobai. “Why not?”

Mo Xiaobai cleared his throat pretentiously, and replied, “My luck is not bad. I found a force technique stone crystal containing a superior-grade refined force technique.”

Mo Xiaobai smiled shyly. “It’s a flawless grade.”

“Oh, flawless. That’s not bad… What?! Flawless?! Cough… cough, cough, cough!”

Mo You shuddered and didn’t manage to breathe properly. He kept coughing violently. His eyes were wide opened as he stared at Mo Xiaobai.

At the side, Mu Yuzhu’s face turned red too. Her breathing got heavy, and she looked at Mo Xiaobai in disbelief.

“Little… Xiaobai, what grade of refined force technique did you say you found?”

Mu Yuzhu didn’t notice that her voice was trembling as she spoke.

Mo Xiaobai looked at Mu Yuzhu and Mo You’s nervous looks, and decided that he shouldn’t tease them anymore.

“Dad, Mom, I found a force technique stone crystal with a flawless grade refined force technique inside. You heard me right,” he hurriedly said in a serious tone.

“…” Mo You.

“…” Mu Yuzhu.

The room became silent.

After receiving Mo Xiaobai’s confirmation, they looked at each other. They seemed lost. They hadn’t accepted this reality completely.

After remaining silent for some time, Mo You said in a skeptical tone, “That’s not right. A flawless grade refined force technique can only be found in a rare grade force technique stone crystal, right? The graystone hill is just a normal first-rank area in the hollow realm. How can there be such high-grade force technique stone crystals there?”

Mu Yuzhu nodded. “That’s right. Rare grade force technique stone crystals can only be found in areas with a higher difficulty level…”

The two of them were experienced adventurers, but now they felt that their world was collapsing.

Mo Xiaobai explained, “Cough, Dad, Mum, the flawless grade refined force technique was in a legendary grade force technique stone crystal. I found a hollow treasure space, and that’s where I found the force technique stone crystal.”

“…” Mo You.

“…” Mu Yuzhu.

A legendary force technique stone crystal…

A hollow treasure…

Mo You looked at Mo Xiaobai with his mouth agape as though he saw a ghost. “A hollow treasure?! The kind… That kind of space where there are a lot of treasures?!”

Mo Xiaobai nodded. “That’s right. That kind of hollow treasure.”

The corners of Mu Yuzhu’s lips twitched. “You managed to find a hollow treasure in a normal first-rank area in the hollow realm?”

Mo Xiaobai nodded again. “What’s wrong with that?”

Mo You looked at Mo Xiaobai. “What kind of irritating good luck is this?”

“???” Mo Xiaobai.

He looked at Mo You in disbelief.

Why was he talking to his son like this?

This made him unhappy.

“I was just blessed by the goddess of luck!”

The room became quiet again. Mo Xiaobai and Mu Yuzhu kept breathing in deeply. They worked hard to understand the astonishing piece of news Mo Xiaobai relayed to them.

The two of them were experienced in life, so they calmed down very soon.

Mo You patted Mo Xiaobai’s hand with a bright smile on his face. “Not bad, not bad! With this flawless grade refined force technique, you will definitely be able to become a powerful warrior in the future as long as you work hard! You will be able to reach six force points or even seven force points.”

Mu Yuzhu nodded.

Mo Xiaobai happily said, “Besides that legendary force technique stone crystal, I found an uncommon grade attack force technique…”

Mo Xiaobai told them about everything he found in the hollow treasure. Then, under Mo You and Mu Yuzhu’s plea, he told them what happened during this trial, and how he found the hollow treasure.

Besides the weird lines of lights around him, he told them everything.

They heard that Mo Xiaobai got chased by a first-rank graystone wolf, and had to hide in a crack. That was how he managed to find the hollow treasure. Mo You and Mu Yuzhu couldn’t keep their laughter in.

“Fortune comes with misfortune. The saying is right,” Mo You exclaimed. “As for the Triple Slash crystal, you can use it after you become a Force Warrior.”

Mu Yuzhu nodded. “The Triple Slash is a very powerful attack force technique. It’s suitable for you. With this force technique, you won’t have to worry about having a lack of attacking methods for a short period of time.”

“Since you have a flawless grade refined force technique, you should start to prepare for your breakthrough right now. There’s no need to waste any time. Sensing your force points and opening them requires some time. I will take leave for you from your headteacher. You can stay at home and cultivate peacefully.”

Mo Xiaobai nodded seriously. “Yes.”

He wanted to become the top scholar of Pingxi Town. It would be great if he could enter one of the top three institutions too.

However, he could only place his target in his heart. He didn’t say it out loud.

“Let’s eat. You can bathe after you eat, and then have a good rest. After that, you will prepare for your breakthrough.”

During dinner, Mo You drank a few cups of his valuable wine collection. Even Mu Yuzhu accompanied him and had a few cups.

After dinner, Mo Xiaobai got urged by Mo You and Mu Yuzhu to bathe and sleep.

Mo You and Mu Yuzhu cleared the table. Mo You couldn’t help but keep laughing. Mu Yuzhu glanced at him, and asked, “Why do you keep laughing?”

Mo You was beaming with joy. Even the scar on his face seemed to be shining with happiness. “Our son will have a good future.”

Mu Yuzhu smiled too. She rolled her eyes at Mo You, and replied, “Of course. Our son is so outstanding. Even if he didn’t find the hollow treasure, he would be able to get into a good school too.

“Clean up and take a bath. You smell of alcohol.”

Mo Xiaobai’s room was very simple. There was a single bed made from black paulownia at the corner. On the side of the window, there was a study desk made from redwood and a shelf beside it. There were some books placed on the shelf.

There was a wardrobe on the other side of the bed.

The entire room was neat and tidy.

After Mo Xiaobai returned to his room, he lay on his bed. He tossed and turned, but he couldn’t fall asleep.

Moonlight shone into his room through the window. His room was stained with a faint layer of silver.

Mo Xiaobai opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling in a daze. The white lines of lights floated around him.

Mo Xiaobai didn’t know what these lines of lights were, but he knew that these lights were probably the greatest opportunity in his life.

He recalled how he got these lines of lights, and remembered his experiences in graystone hill. Then, he thought of his university entrance exam. In the end, his mind was fixed on the student from Stone Sun Secondary School who became a Force Warrior.

He sat up from his bed abruptly.

He finally managed to get a flawless grade refined force technique. How was he able to sleep?

It’s time to get up and cultivate!

He planned to start sensing his force points now so that he could become a Force Warrior as soon as possible!
