Stunningly beautiful young lady

However, seeing that the strength of the people who came in with her had all improved, and considering that she was still only a Spirit Warrior, she lowered her head and dared not meet the eyes of any of them.

“The leap between Spirit General and Spirit Sect is enormous. I don’t believe she can cross that level after absorbing three spiritual energy sources.”

Hu Na had her arms crossed in front of her chest. Having absorbed the spiritual energy, she didn't plan to immediately look for an exit. She wanted to keep looking around first.

She wanted to see just how capable Su Qing really was.

It's a major level, not something you can just jump over easily. Some people might even spend three to ten years or more stuck at this level.

At this moment, Su Qing was enveloped in red and green light, the two colors of light alternating and complementing each other, making her look very mysterious and beautiful.

These two colors are normally an odd combination, but when printed on Su Qing, they make everyone unable to look away.

"What a nice view."

A female disciple looked at Su Qing under the red and green light and exclaimed in admiration.

The woman inside had skin as smooth as jade, cherry lips, willow-leaf eyebrows, and very lively features. Even her slight furrowing of her brows looked beautiful.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at her, and after hearing a buzzing sound, Su Qing's aura suddenly intensified.

"This is... a Spirit Sect One-Star!"

After noticing the change in her aura, a power akin to that of a Spirit Master or higher emerged from her.

How do you know?

Although Su Zhen was also curious about his sister's current strength, he couldn't ask her because she was still inside.

But the people around him said this, yet he wasn't a Spirit Sect master, and his strength wasn't even as high as his sister's. So how did he make that judgment?

Su Zhen's small head was filled with big questions.

"Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run, right? There are so many Spirit Sect One-Star people in the academy, and every one of them goes through this process when they advance."

Although Hu Ziyi was not at the level of a Spirit Sect Master, he had seen many disciples who had advanced to the first star of the Spirit Sect, and each of them was in the same situation as Su Qing at this moment.

"I thought she was so powerful, having absorbed so much spiritual energy, yet she only leveled up by one."

Long Jiangsu scoffed at this. Since it wasn't his senior sister Hu Na who was promoted, he figured he would just say whatever Hu Na didn't like to hear, and he was sure he wouldn't be wrong.

"Exactly, she has three spiritual energy sources. We all level up by absorbing one spiritual energy source, but she only leveled up once with three. It's such a waste of resources."

Another disciple who had been following behind Hu Na without saying a word finally spoke up.

Just a second before Su Gulingyu was about to retort that they were meddling in other people's business, something strange happened to Su Qing again.

To everyone's surprise, Su Qing's aura changed, and two beams of red and green light appeared on her body.

"She leveled up again!"

Long Jiangsu was so surprised that he could fit an egg in his mouth, his eyes wide open.

Hu Na's eyes were filled with jealousy. She bit her lower lip hard and looked at Su Qing, who was advancing in the competition, with an unfriendly gaze.

Su Qing felt her dantian was completely filled, and her limbs and bones were filled with spiritual energy.

Every inch of blood vessel, skin, flowing blood, and even the hair on the head is filled with spiritual energy.

Sensing that there was still spiritual energy in her dantian that wanted to burst forth, she immediately formed a hand seal to tightly bind the restless spiritual energy within her dantian.

She should not continue to advance, because it would weaken her foundation and be detrimental to her future cultivation.

This spiritual energy will temporarily reside in her dantian. After she completes a month of basic physical and combat training, she will release this spiritual energy to upgrade herself.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she gradually compressed the spiritual energy scattered throughout her body into her dantian, and then stood up.

The barrier created by the old locust tree dissipated the moment Su Qing's hand crossed that critical point.

"Congratulations, sister! You've reached the Spirit Sect level... um, Spirit Sect level two!"

Su Zhen even counted on his fingers, because this second-star Spirit Master was several levels higher than him, and there was a huge gap between them.

Just a few months ago, my sister was still a girl without any spiritual power, and I still had to protect her.

But just a few months later, his sister's strength had surpassed his by a great deal, and now he even needed her protection.

"You guys are great too."

Su Qing looked at Su Zhen and Gu Lingyu and praised them.

Because Su Zhen was only a little boy of ten years old and had already reached the first level of Spirit General, while Gu Lingyu had reached the third level of Spirit General at the age of fifteen.

This is quite impressive among freshmen, and it's something to be envied.

"My older sister is even more amazing. I want to learn from her."

Su Zhen looked at Su Qing with a serious expression, raised his right hand and placed it on the side of his head to make up his mind.

"Me too, I need to learn more from you."

When Gu Lingyu was still in the family, his father often taught him:

Yu'er, this world is so big, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. You must study hard when you go out into the world.

He didn't take it seriously at first, but after arriving at the academy, he realized that his father was right.

Originally, his strength was above average in his family, not bad at all, but when he came to the academy and compared himself to other outstanding people, there were just too many.

There are many people who reach the level of Spirit General at the age of ten or eleven, and many of them have multiple spiritual roots. They are skilled in various alchemy, talisman making, and beast taming, unlike those who are few and far between in their region.

There are many talented people in this academy, but he hasn't seen many of them with his own eyes; he's only heard about them from his seniors.

"Alright, now that you've all absorbed everything, let's leave this place and head to the next location."

The old locust tree had been keeping an eye on Hu Na and the others, but seeing that they didn't make any further moves, it stopped saying anything.

"Grandpa Locust Tree, we're leaving now. Don't miss us."

Bai Ling jumped down from the branches of the old locust tree, and then with a few leaps, landed on Su Qing's shoulder, looking at Grandpa Locust Tree with a reluctant expression.

After spending so much time with this old locust tree, I felt a little reluctant to leave it.

"Don't worry, we'll meet again."

The old locust tree spoke with a hint of amusement in its voice, then waved some branches, and a large bag of small white flowers, held in a cloth bag, fell in front of Su Qing.

"Thank you."

Su Qing reached out and put the packet of flowers into her spatial storage. Although she didn't really understand what the old locust tree meant, she didn't ask.

Just as Bai Ling, the curious girl, was about to ask a question, the scene was suddenly filled with white locust blossoms, and then they found themselves in a different place.
