“So… you’ve already spent all your money?”
Staring at Dong Chengling, who was eating some porridge and custard buns, Ren Suo began to develop an appetite.
“No… I haven’t…”
Dong Chengling finished chewing her bun and took another mouthful of Century Egg and Pork Porridge before saying, “I left some salt and instant noodles, just in case.”
“Are noodles enough for you?”
“Don’t they serve free rice and soup on every floor of the canteen? I’ve been eating free food for breakfast and lunch in the past few days. If cultivation didn’t cause hunger that would result in a decrease in energy, I wouldn’t even have to prepare noodles.”
Rice and soup were served free-of-charge on every floor of the canteen. Ren Suo glanced at the last window on the third floor to see that “Free Rice and Soup” were written on the glass. There was no one behind the window at all. It seems there would only be a transfer of manpower whenever there were visitors.
After giving it a little thought, he immediately knew the rationale behind it. It was the most basic life insurance that the institute was giving its students. After a few monthly exams, there would definitely be students who have yet to accumulate enough points because of their poor grades. Hence, they had no choice but to resort to free rice and soup in the canteen.
The food served was obviously not the most delicious but it could at least help provide proper nutrition required by the students. Allowing them to have their basic needs met and experience the logic of suffering when one doesn’t study hard enough. It was a great encouragement.
Although it seemed rather embarrassing to be eating free food, one would not lose their dignity while eating it because it had nothing to do with their family background. If they wanted to have good food, they would have to work hard to gain points for it. Regardless of how wealthy their families may be, they could not buy any points…
However, it would be a little… embarrassing for Ren Suo, a cultivation instructor to have free meals.
Dong Chengling was not at all bothered, though. She told him about her plans in a serious manner and sounded extremely dignified like a fat person talking about having fried chicken every day.
“Did you really spend all your money on cultivating time? It’s only the third day of school,” Ren Suo asked in disbelief.
“But I’ve already been here for 13 days. I used up all of my cultivation quotas three days ago,” Dong Chengling said.
“How could that be!?!”
Ren Suo immediately retorted because he didn’t expect Dong Chengling to have really used up her points.
Ren Suo had accumulated 90 hours, which was enough for him to cultivate for three hours daily for a month.
Although he did not know how many hours Dong Chengling had accumulated, he was sure that she definitely had more than him. In other words, she had probably spent nine hours a day cultivating, in the past ten days.
Reasonably, although absorbing Reiki was a pleasing activity that could be seen by the naked eye, and would progress every minute, it would also cause one to be mentally and physically fatigued. For example, Ren Suo would need to stop and rest after every hour of cultivation. He would at most train and cultivate for three hours a day, unless he activates “Unlimited Energy”.
Once he practices too much, Ren Suo would feel unusually tired, thus resulting in mistakes in spitting. He would find it hard to concentrate and his efficiency would be greatly reduced.
In this sense, cultivation is like a puppet that runs while doing a roll. It could enjoy the training of one’s spirit and body while deriving joy…
Therefore, the limit of the controllable Reiki polymerization equipment in the dormitory was not, in essence, a restriction on the practice time of the monk. It was simply a measure to prevent them from wasting resources and keeping the equipment on all day. Ren Suo had consulted Zhao Huo about it before, after which the latter said that he had rarely been able to practice for 3 hours in the past few days.
“How could it not?” Dong Chengling answered.
“That would be exhausting!” Ren Suo exclaimed.
“Fatigue is the potential imprisonment of the body and the spirit. Take the initiative to break through it, and your upper limit will be increased. It is normal to give up because of exhaustion, but we have already stopped being normal.”
Dongcheng Ling continued self-righteously, “If I am still an ordinary person, I naturally need instructions to improve my health but through cultivation, I can attain a greater gain through exhaustion after each break. That is the right way to cultivate.”
“In fact, I only knew this when I saw some scientific articles that are related to this topic, during special training. I once proposed that the college also introduce this method, but the dean did not agree.”
Ren Suo knew that he had met a powerful and strong figure who could break through fatigue by herself.
She would rather eat minimal food and use all resources for cultivation?
She’s simply a weakened version of The Seeker!
Of course, it would be impossible for the Vice Dean to agree with this masochistic method of practice, which was akin to the theory of being able to become the leader of Xuan Nation just by putting in an effort. It was only theoretically feasible!
If it were someone else, Ren Suo would definitely think that she was just bragging; however, Ren Suo believed it because it was said by Dong Chengling.
Although he had only seen Dong Chengling thrice and spoke to her twice, he knew that she wouldn’t lie even though she was straightforward and dislikeable.
“Last night, I… uh… Why didn’t you come when I wanted to give you a “treat”? It’s a waste to turn down a free offer,” Ren Suo said.
“Like I said, I needed to prepare for a lesson. I will modify today’s lesson according to the students’ progress.”
Isn’t that an excuse for rejection!
After eating and drinking, Dong Chengling wiped her mouth in satisfaction and said, “Thank you for your treat, but I will not establish a complicated romantic relationship with you.”
Ren Suo more or less knew how to communicate with the heroine in front of him. “Why not?”
“First, I don’t have the intention to do so. Second, I don’t have a great impression of you, and third, what I’m focusing on now is the future.”
Dong Chengling continued, “Because of a rare opportunity that I got when I was young, I’ve always hoped to attain great power so as to uphold justice. Now that I have such an opportunity, I will not focus my energy elsewhere, except training hard or doing my part for the country.”
She then said in a mellower tone, “But if you still want to treat me to a meal, I will not turn you down if I have the time.”
Ren Suo could tell that Dong Chengling was finally a little shy and embarrassed, for she was looking away. Feeling amused, he asked, “Why?”
“I have stated my position, but if you are still willing to treat me out of good intentions, I won’t turn you down. I can’t give what you want, but accepting is a kind of gift too. If giving me a treat makes you happy, I’ll gladly concede!”
Although Dong Chengling remained composed on the surface, she began to stutter. It seems she knew how embarrassing her words were.
However, it was what Ren Suo wanted to hear.
“Sometimes I get hungry at night but I don’t dare to walk alone in the dark, so I often hope for someone to accompany me to the canteen for supper… Can I ask you to go with me from now on?” Ren Suo asked with a wink.
Dong Chengling suddenly grinned widely. “My pleasure!”
