As Xu Zhou refined, that Exotic Beast energy gradually disintegrated and merged into his limbs and bones.
The exotic beast attributes contained in this energy also entered his body, tempering him completely.
Xu Zhou stood up, stretched his stiff body, and glanced at the panel.
Realm: Tier 0 Explosive Type (3%)
After two hours, it increased by 1%.
Not bad, although it’s twice as slow as the Beast Blood Bath, at this speed, he can break through within a month.
Xu Zhou nodded in satisfaction, showing a relaxed expression. He could feel that as his realm increased, his body became stronger.
It was already lunchtime, and classmates were getting up one after another, heading to the cafeteria. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovelfire.net
Wen Yuehui came over, excitedly saying, "Xu Zhou, I’m about to refine thirty percent too."
Hearing this, Xu Zhou smiled and said, "Congratulations."
Xu Zhou could sense that the aura around the other person became somewhat intense.
This kind of aura, Xu Zhou could also sense earlier on Zhou Jie.
However, other classmates didn’t have this aura.
Xu Zhou speculated that this was probably because thirty percent was a threshold. Cultivating to this level makes you different from ordinary people.
He wondered when he could reach this step himself.
Reflecting inwardly, he walked towards the cafeteria with Wen Yuehui.
Xu Zhou scooped a bowl of hearty food, with meat making up a full fifty percent.
Wen Yuehui sat across from him, eating while saying, "Xu Zhou, have you decided which university to apply for?"
Hearing this, Xu Zhou shook his head, "I haven’t thought about it yet."
In this world, universities are divided into cultural universities and martial arts universities.
Among them, there are only dozens of cultural universities, but hundreds of martial arts universities.
Xu Zhou certainly wants to apply to a martial arts university, though it seems there are many choices.
"What about you?" Xu Zhou asked.
Wen Yuehui blurted out, "Of course, the Great Tao Academy."
Xu Zhou was slightly stunned, not expecting the other’s ambition to be so high.
The Da Xia Federation has many martial arts universities, but only one Supreme Academy, which is the Great Tao Academy.
However, to get into this school, you must at least rank in the top ten in the county in the college entrance exam.
Xu Zhou frowned and said, "With Fujiang First Middle School’s historical results, you’d need to be at least in the top three of the entire school to have a chance to enter the Great Tao Academy, right?"
Wen Yuehui shook his head, "Grades alone are not enough. I’ve heard that a certain contribution is also required. Without contribution, you can’t get in."
Xu Zhou was slightly surprised; he hadn’t learned about this before.
"Only by hunting Exotic Beasts can one gain contribution. But, we’ve just started cultivating. Hunting Exotic Beasts is easier said than done, and just surviving encounters with them would be good enough," Wen Yuehui sighed.
"Is it that difficult? Do you have any confidence?" Xu Zhou asked with curiosity.
Wen Yuehui shook his head, "Not me, even Zhou Jie might not be confident. However, Yang Zihan from Class One likely has a chance."
"Are they all thinking of applying to the Great Tao Academy?" Xu Zhou was surprised.
"Of course, the Great Tao Academy offers the best resources and the best teachers. The conditions there are top-notch nationwide. Like today’s Beast Blood Bath, the supply is unlimited every day. If you can get in, the benefits are countless."
Wen Yuehui had a look of longing.
Hearing this, Xu Zhou was also momentarily breathless.
His previous self hadn’t even considered martial arts studies, so naturally, he hadn’t checked out such a martial arts supreme academy like the Great Tao Academy.
So today was his first time hearing about these things.
However, judging by his current cultivation speed, he had better not think about it for now...
Seeing him not speaking, Wen Yuehui thought he was discouraged and quickly said, "Actually, the Great Tao Academy isn’t the only choice."
"There are many Hidden Sects in Xia Country, specializing in selecting talents who have awakened exotic beast talents. Becoming a core disciple there offers benefits not less than the Great Tao Academy."
"Hidden Sects?" Xu Zhou nodded.
The news reported that after the resurgence of myths, many legendary Hidden Sects have surfaced.
He didn’t know much about these, only aware that these Hidden Sects were also a significant force in Xia Country.
Unexpectedly, he could go to such places after the college entrance exam.
