Chapter 28: Earning SP the "The Kent Way"

Chapter 28: Earning SP the " The Kent Way"

---

After finishing his morning training with Xian Yu, Kent dragged himself back home, sweat dripping from his brow. His body ached, but the thought of earning SP kept his spirits high.

"It took me FIVE spiritual fruits last time to cultivate From LEVEL-F to LEVEL-E. I should need five fruits this time too. One fruit cost now- 100,000/- Spiritual Point. It's ten times more expensive than the previous level. I need to hit 500,000 SP before my cultivation reaches to LEVEL D," Kent muttered to himself, wiping his face with a towel. 

"Let's check my spiritual points first," Kent muttered. He opened the system to view his SP balance. After checking, he sighed. It wasn't enough for him to level up anytime soon.

Spiritual Points: 187,123 SP. 

Kent asks with a deep voice, "Hey system, what's the difference between cultivation fruits of each level. They all look same. Can I buy like 30 or 50 Cultivation fruits?"

[Ding! System notifications- Dear host, you can only buy five Cultivation fruits in each level. Like the price, the fruits spiritual energy also increased by ten times.]

"What a bummer... Kent says, Soon Nima will become a cultivator of Level E (middle). At this rate, I'll never catch up to Nima. I need a plan to earn SP faster, I need to get creative."

While sipping a glass of water, Kent leaned back in his chair, his eyes narrowing mischievously. "If the system rewards me for triggering emotions, then I just need to mess with people—without getting myself in trouble, of course."

Nima walked into the room, chewing on a carrot. "What are you scheming now, Kent? Why do your face expression looks like you are planing to do something wired?"

"Nothing that concerns you, my face is normal as always." Kent said, grinning.

"That grin is terrifying," Nima replied, narrowing her eyes. 

"Bye Nima, i have to set up my stall." Kent stepped outside, ready to put his plan into action.

First plan- The Stinky Momo Stall (Revisited): Kent set up his infamous stinky momo stall in the middle of the bustling street. The smell wafted through the air, causing immediate chaos.

"What is that smell?!" a passerby exclaimed, covering their nose.

"It smells like someone left socks in a sewer for a month!" another yelled. "I can't take it anymore."

+56 SP copied (Disgusting).

+77 SP copied (Annoyance).

+79 SP copied (Fainting).

A curious man approached, pinching his nose. "What are you selling?"

"Stinky momos," Kent said proudly, holding up a steaming plate. "One bite and you'll forget all your problems!"

The man hesitated before taking a bite. His eyes widened. "This… this is amazing!" he shouted, shoving another momo into his mouth. "It's the best thing I've ever tasted!"

+133 SP copied (Joy).

Kent smirked. "That's the magic of stinky momos."

Second plan- The "Lost Wallet" Prank: Kent walked into the crowded market area and "accidentally" dropped a fake wallet filled with Monopoly (fake) money.

"Excuse me! You dropped your wallet!" a kind woman called out, picking it up.

Kent turned around dramatically. "Oh, thank you! You're an angel! This wallet contains my life savings!"

As she handed it to him, the play money spilt out, revealing the fake bills. The woman's expression shifted from concern to disbelief. "Are you serious right now? This isn't real money!"

+88 SP copied (Annoyance).

+45 SP copied (Shocked).

Then, he decided to go even further. He casually dropped the wallet in the busy street. When people saw it, filled with money, they thought they'd hit the jackpot. But as soon as they picked it up, their hopes were shattered.

+99 SP copied (Annoyance).

+451 SP copied (Anger).

Third plan- The Dramatic Falling Act: Kent positioned himself near a group of teenagers( 16-17 years). As they passed by, he suddenly tripped over his own feet, flailing his arms like a cartoon character before landing with an exaggerated thud.

"Are you okay?!" one of the teenagers asked, startled.

"I think… I think I broke my pride," Kent groaned dramatically, clutching his chest.

The group burst into laughter. Giving him a lot of SP.

+99 SP copied (Amusement).

+112 SP copied (Sympathy).

By the time Kent returned home, his SP balance had skyrocketed. 

System, check my current SP. He said! 

Ding!

Current SP: 212,456.

Kent grinned, staring at the system screen. "Not bad for a day's work. Who knew being a clown could be so profitable?"

Nima was sitting on the couch, flipping through an old comic book when Kent walked in. "You're home early," she said without looking up. "What's with that smug look?"

"Nothing. You read, don't disturb me. I will get ready for school. After that I will leave you with Grampa Xian Yu to study." 

+99 SP copied from Nima. (Anger)

A few moments later, Nima was sitting on a wooden chair, holding a pen in her hand and writing something. Opposite her, the old man Xian Yu sat, watching over her. Both of their faces are pale and full of frustration and annoyance. None of them wanted to be here in the yard, one studying and the other teaching. Kent waved his hand saying have fun. I am leaving. See you later. 

Rustle!

.... 🍃 🍃 🍃 

Rustle!

A wind blowing some leaves passed in the background of Nima and Xian Yu. Both silent. 

In the school. Some students were gossiping. 

One saying you are awesome. "You have got luck."

Another saying. "I wish my family also had something like that. You are great. Bla Bla..." 

Kent walked into the classroom, his eyes scanning the room before settling on the group. He sat down at his desk, noticing Ethan Cross seated next to him."What's going on?" Kent asked Ethan. "I heard loud voices outside. What are they talking about? Why are they so excited?"

"Why, they are holding that grass like it's some kind of treasure?" Kent continued, raising an eyebrow.

Ethan leaned in and explained, "That's not ordinary grass. It's spiritual grass, filled with spiritual energy. Eating it can boost cultivation.

"Kent nodded. "Ah, so that's why they're so hyped."

"Yeah. Ryan reached Level E last night," Ethan said. "He's giving the grass out to celebrate.

"Kent frowned. "He made it to the next level so fast. He should be the top student in our class."

"Didn't miss Elena say it takes about 15 days to break through?" Kent asked.

Ethan shrugged. "Ryan has an A-rank physique, and his family bought him spiritual land for cultivation. That's why it's faster for him."Kent's eyes widened. "Wait... What is spiritual land?"
