"Greetings, Lord Zhongli."
Zhong Li nodded in response to the group, then, noticing that they were all holding their phones and checking the company system, asked another question.
Are you all huddled together checking out the mission details?
Zhang Jinglan, relying on the sofa-sliding company system, nodded.
"Yes!
To be precise, Miao Miao and I are looking for a suitable first mission for Kotonoha and Ruri.
Chen Miaomiao nodded in agreement.
"After all, it's their first mission, so Jinglan and I plan to go on the mission with them and show them around."
Katsura Kotonoha and Gokou Ruri are ultimately still beginners.
Furthermore, they had little combat experience before, so for safety's sake, it was natural to guide them.
Of course, it's also because the two of them have a relationship with Zhongli and know that Zhongli wants to mentor them.
That's why Chen Miaomiao put in so much effort.
Zhongli nodded upon hearing the explanation.
Zhang Jinglan, who had stopped checking the system, looked over curiously.
"Zhongli, why didn't you come to school today? Why are you staying at the company instead? Are you doing some tasks?"
I remember that low-level paranormal phenomena are rare even during the day, right?
Upon hearing the question, Chen Miaomiao, Katsura Kotonoha, and Gokou Ruri also looked over curiously.
Chapter 29 The First Person in History, a Prodigy Beyond Comparison
"Zhongli, why didn't you come to school today? Why are you staying at the company instead? Are you doing some tasks?"
I remember that low-level paranormal phenomena are rare even during the day, right?
Upon hearing the question, Chen Miaomiao, Katsura Kotonoha, and Gokou Ruri also looked over curiously.
Seeing the girls' curiosity, Zhongli didn't hide anything and spoke directly.
"It's nothing, I broke through to the intermediate level of spiritual master at the company today."
The breakthrough has now been successful.
Zhongli also reached out and clenched his fist, enveloping his fist with the sublimated white spiritual power, causing the air to distort.
I could see that the spiritual power on Zhongli's fist had clearly undergone a qualitative change.
Chen Miaomiao and Zhang Jinglan's beautiful eyes widened involuntarily, and their rosy little mouths opened into an "O" shape, big enough to fit a sausage.
On the contrary, Katsura Kotonoha and Gokou Ruri, who were unaware of the difficulty of advancing as spirit masters and were also unaware that Zhongli had only awakened a few days ago, did not react much.
They just thought that it was normal for Zhongli, who was so powerful, to break through his cultivation level.
So everyone was happy and celebrating.
"Congratulations to Zhongli Jun on breaking through to the intermediate level of spiritual master."
Zhongli Jun is indeed the most powerful.
Katsura Kotonoha looked at Zhongli with eyes full of joy.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Lord Zhongli! You will surely stand at the pinnacle of the world and become an unparalleled demon king."
Ruri Gokou also raised her hand happily, and even the chuunibyou-like Ruri had come up with a title for Zhongli: the peerless demon king.
After all, the Demon King is pretty cool.
Hearing their congratulations, Zhong Li gladly accepted.
I received your congratulations.
"But Liuli, please don't call me the Peerless Demon King. If others hear that, they'll think I'm some kind of villain."
As he spoke, Zhong Li saw Zhang Jinglan and Chen Miaomiao, who were stunned and speechless, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"What, shouldn't you two be happy and celebrate my advancement to intermediate-level spirit mage?"
Why are you two so quiet?
The two only snapped out of their daze after being reminded.
Chen Miaomiao excitedly hugged Zhong Li's arm, not caring at all about the softness pressing against her body.
"Brother Zhong, Brother Zhong, you're amazing!"
He reached the intermediate level of spiritual master in just two days after awakening.
I doubt anyone in the entire world could compare.
It should be noted that, as a person with supernatural powers, she possesses the most outstanding spiritual affinity.
It also possesses the top-tier functional supernatural power, the Spirit Gu Divine Body, and its cultivation speed is among the best.
It took her more than half a year to advance from the lower level to the intermediate level, during which she consumed a lot of resources.
It's impossible for Zhongli to advance to the intermediate level in just over two days; this can't even be described as monstrous.
It's more like cheating.
However, Chen Miaomiao's thinking is not wrong; Zhong Li is indeed cheating.
He activated an overpowered skill cheat.
Zhang Jinglan, standing to the side, also stared at Zhong Li with horrified eyes, making sarcastic remarks as if she were looking at a monster.
"Zhongli, how exactly do you cultivate?"
The cultivation speed is as fast as the speed of light, and you'll reach the intermediate level in no time.
I'm afraid that in another two or three months, you'll catch up with me and Miaomiao and become their superior?
That's absolutely outrageous.
As one of the top geniuses in the Celestial Empire, Zhang Jinglan said she was devastated and her Dao heart was almost shattered.
At the same time, I was very puzzled.
According to the historical records of Longhu Mountain that she had read, even those who were blessed by the heavens were considered to be among the most fortunate.
The speed of cultivation and growth should not be so contrary to common sense.
The fastest recorded advancement was over a month and a half, from lower to intermediate level.
This is even with that guy being able to cultivate automatically 24 hours a day, and with a large force using a huge amount of resources.
Moreover, the records indicate that the cultivation speed at that time was already at its limit; any faster and the spirit and body would collapse.
After all, even if the body and soul can become stronger at all times, there is still a limit to how fast they can adapt.
Because of so many doubts, Zhang Jinglan felt itchy inside.
Unable to resist pushing past Chen Miaomiao, she snuggled up to Zhong Li, cupped her hands around her heart, blinked her big eyes, and said in a coquettish voice.
"Brother Zhong, how did you do that?"
Could you please tell Jinglan, my little sister? I want to know.
Just tell Jinglan, and I can let you...hehehehehe!"
Zhang Jinglan's lips curled into a smile, her eyes glistening with tears. She looked at Zhong Li with an intense thirst for knowledge, resembling a lovesick fool.
Looking at Zhang Jinglan, who was pressing down on her and almost burrowing into Zhong Li's arms, Chen Miaomiao pouted, clearly unhappy.
"Get away from me, you scheming guy. Brother Zhong is not that kind of person."
As she spoke, Chen Miaomiao tried to push Zhang Jinglan away so as not to disturb her time with Zhong Li.
But Zhang Jinglan was filled with curiosity and clung tightly to Zhong Li's waist, refusing to leave.
"No, no, I'm just really curious, I don't have any ill intentions."
For a moment, the two started playfully fighting.
Katsura Kotonoha, watching from the side, was filled with envy and also wanted to frolic on Zhongli.
Zhong Li, caught in the middle of the commotion, had no choice but to push Zhang Jinglan away.
After all, he was only an intermediate-level spiritualist, and he wasn't as strong as Zhang Jinglan, an advanced-level spiritualist.
Zhong Li had no doubt that one day Zhang Jinglan would become attracted to his good looks.
She would probably be pushed onto the bed, powerless to resist.
I was truly moved to tears at that moment.
"Okay, okay."
Since you already know that my spiritual energy circulation system is special, I can cultivate at any time.
To achieve rapid advancement within a few days, one would need a spiritual energy circulation system similar to mine, as well as spiritual techniques to adjust the physical body and soul.
As he spoke, he patted the heads of Zhang Jinglan and Chen Miaomiao, who were playfully fighting, to comfort them.
Hearing the explanation she wanted, Zhang Jinglan was immediately satisfied with her curiosity.
Instead of continuing to playfully tease Zhongli, she stood up and looked on expectantly.
"So, Zhongli, when you reach the same level as us, you can also arrange for us to join you."
Zhongli nodded without hesitation.
"That's certainly possible, and with sufficient resources, we can continuously upgrade you until you reach the world limit without any problem."
However, there was one thing Zhongli didn't mention.
Using this method has some side effects, but the two people will feel very close to him.
But since they are all good female friends, it doesn't have much of an impact, so there's no need to mention it.
At least that's what Zhongli thinks.
Hey!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jinglan and Chen Miaomiao's eyes lit up.
It can speed up cultivation, which is much better than their hard cultivation.
"That's great, Zhongli, you'd better improve your strength quickly."
This girl is waiting for you to carry her to new heights.
Zhang Jinglan spoke excitedly, then continued, as if remembering something else.
"By the way, Zhongli."
It's a rare occasion that you've broken through to the intermediate level of a spiritualist today. How about we go out for a celebratory meal?
What do you think?
After Zhang Jinglan finished speaking, she looked at Chen Miaomiao, Gui Yanye, and Wugou Liuli, and finally looked at Zhongli to ask for his opinion.
Zhongli had no objection to this.
After all, his breakthrough was too easy and didn't feel real, so whether to celebrate or not was up to him.
"I have no objection, but didn't you guys choose which missions to go out on before?"
Only after being reminded did the group realize this.
However, Zhang Jinglan waved her hand dismissively.
"It's okay, we can do the mission next time."
But the celebration can't wait until the next day.
The tasks chosen for Katsura Kotonoha and Gokou Ruri were the lowest difficulty beginner missions.
It's more like a trial run, a change of mindset, and a familiarization with the process.
For two novice supernatural beings, there was no danger at all, nor was it too easy.
As you can see, when the Five-Watching Crystal just awakened, it almost defeated the lower-level supernatural coffin bearers at dusk.
So you can do the task anytime.
