Chapter 29: A-Arm Wrestling with Ryan 

---

"Oh, you didn't know?" Ethan wears glasses to look and sound like an intellectual . "A spiritual land is a place where spiritual energy is more concentrated compared to other places. You know, spiritual energy is still recovering. Not all areas of the world contain equal amounts of spiritual energy. Some places are rich in spiritual energy, while others have very little."

"The old and ancient places like ruins and pocket dimensions Miss Elena told us about draw more spiritual energy. Spiritual land is a smaller version of those. Those places gather more spiritual energy than others. It can make animals and plants mutate and evolve faster."

"Spiritual lands are extremely expensive. If someone lives on those lands, their cultivation is faster. Spiritual land also has different levels. All land is not the same. Some places might also harm you, like a graveyard or an old battlefield. Those places have negative effects if you cultivate them for too long."

Kent says, "You also have a spiritual land. Congrats on your breakthrough."

Ethan's chest puffed up a little hearing that. "Yes, yes. I broke through yesterday. My spiritual land is a little higher than Ryan's."

"Kent, why don't you come and cultivate at my place? Your breakthrough will be faster. Although your physique is F-rank, it should make you cultivate faster."

Kent, with a smirk, thought to himself, "Oh, I broke through to Level E two days ago. And my sister is also a Level-E cultivator. But Ethan must belong to a big clan, I guess. He owns a higher level of spiritual land. And he doesn't show off like Ryan. He's not like others, a arrogant person. I guess I can be friends with him."

Meanwhile, in the classroom, many students were saying, "Ryan, show us your power! We want to know how much stronger you are at Level E!"

Ryan became full of confidence and showed off his muscles. "Watch, watch! 💪 Ha ha ha!!"

From behind, Kent says, "Your arms look so thin and weak. Are you sure you levelled up?"

Ryan got embarrassed. All the students started laughing.

+99, +77, +88, +65, +35 SP from students.

+999 SP copied from Ryan (Embarrassment).

Ryan defended himself. "It's not about the look and appearance. How about you challenge me to an arm wrestling match, Kent?"

Kent replied, "Sure, why not? I want to see how strong you are."

Ryan says mockingly, "Come, I'll show you... F-rank physique."

Both of them held their hands, and people started cheering in the background. They were pushing against each other. From the right side, Kent paused Ryan's hand. From the left, Ryan pushed back.

"What are they doing? Are they dancing or something?" students were murmuring.

Ethan says, "It looks like they're showing us an arm wrestling dance."

Ryan thought, "He always embarrasses me in front of others. I'll break his hand. Then I'll apologize afterwards. He's a cultivator; his hand will heal in a week." Ryan used all his power. His eyes turned red with anger, and he yelled, "Ahhh!"

But Kent didn't feel anything. His physical power was already higher than anyone in the class. He had maxed out his physique. Kent pushed with only half of his strength. Ryan fell backwards on his butt from the force.

Slam!

Everyone was shocked. "What just happened? Kent is a Level-F cultivator, and Ryan is Level-E!"

+999, 888, 777... SP copied from students (shock).

Kent realized he had used too much power. "I didn't think he'd be so weak. What should I do now?"

He scratched his head and says, "Suddenly I feel full of strength. I don't know why. Maybe I reached Level E and awakened as a strength-type."

Then he says, "Thank you, Ryan. You helped me level up. I'm grateful to you. Let's celebrate both of our breakthroughs. Where's the spiritual grass? Here, take it. Have fun!"

Kent distributed all the grass to his classmates. Ryan became as stiff as a stone, giving Kent a lot of SP.

+999 SP copied from Ryan (Frustration).

+999 SP copied from Ryan (Shocked).

+999 SP copied from Ryan (Anger).

+999, +999, +999, +999 SP copied from others.

Kent laughed. "Now I can show my power without any worries. I'll just say Ryan helped me level up faster. I'm such a genius. 😎"

Ethan asked, "Did you really level up just from arm wrestling?"

Kent replied confidently, "Yes. Didn't you see?"

Ethan said, "Then you should definitely tell Miss Elena about this. You'll get more cultivation resources."

Miss Elena came into the classroom. Before Kent could say anything, the rest of the class started to tell her everything. How Kent level up.

Miss Elena said, "You're already a self-awakened cultivator, and now you level up faster than your physique and even gain strength-type power."

She handed him two more spiritual stones. With the previous three, Kent now had a total of five spiritual stones. These stones were useless to him. Nima could use the spiritual stones, but Kent didn't want to give them to her. She was already progressing faster than he was.

Ethan came over and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you look disappointed?"

Kent quickly had an idea. 😁 💡

"I have a good deal for you, Ethan. Do you want to buy some spiritual stones for a cheap price? I have five in total. They've never been used."

Ethan was shocked. "Don't you need the spiritual stones for cultivation? You know, all these stones in our Dragon County are controlled by Nexus and the Watchers. You'll never get any more spiritual stones in the future if they find out you sold them. Think about it, Kent."

Kent murmurs to himself. "I don't need these stones. I don't care if I get more or not. But I can sell them to earn some extra money. But how much do they cost? What if Ethan cheats on me?"

Then he defends Ethan thinking, "No, Ethan is rich. He doesn't need to cheat me. These stones probably don't cost much. People can easily absorb spiritual energy from the air for free. I don't need them. Nima's already progressing faster than me, and I can use this to earn some extra cash. But how much do they even cost? I don't know the real value of these spiritual stones."

Kent kept thinking about this over and over again. Ethan broke his thought. "Are you sure you want to sell them? I don't have much pocket money left. I can buy two from you. But I know a place where we can sell them all. We just have to be careful. Nexus and the Watchers can't find out about this."
