Chapter 13: Provoking Universal Outrage! King Dong’s Chest-Grabbing Scandal?

[Rewriting Ma Xiaotao’s fate, +20,000 Luck Points!]
There were quite a few unexpected gains.
“About 10,000 luck points,” Zhuge Lan said with a smile. “Now we have some balance left, so there’s a sense of security.”
Huo Yuhao nodded happily.
Ten thousand luck points!
The first stage of the Muscle Tendon Change Classic only consumed 5,000 luck points.
A huge profit!
“Excellent!” Tianmeng Ice Silkworm cheered, “Only 10% left to awaken the spiritual telekinesis!”
“You’re celebrating too soon,” Zhuge Lan replied leisurely. “Yuhao has already started the Muscle Tendon Change Classic; it’s time to learn something else.”
Learning new skills definitely costs resources.
But since this luck points balance originally belonged to Huo Yuhao, what could Tianmeng Ice Silkworm say?
“Besides, if we’re to awaken spiritual telekinesis, shouldn’t Yuhao be the first?” Zhuge Lan pressed.
“Tch!” Tianmeng Ice Silkworm snapped in annoyance, “You’re always picking on me! I’m not talking to you anymore!”
She burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
Zhuge Lan chuckled softly; such a fiery temper.
“Lan-ge, Tianmeng-ge, we’re a trinity—there’s no need for this,” Huo Yuhao tried to mediate.
“The priority is to strengthen you. You are our foundation,” Zhuge Lan analyzed. “With this 10,000 luck points, do you want to develop attack skills or agility and lightness techniques?”
“I’ll trust Lan-ge.”
“Alright, you start training; I’ll think it over.”
“Okay.”
Huo Yuhao devoted himself to refining the Mysterious Water Pill.
Meanwhile, Zhuge Lan pondered.
Unsurprisingly, Huo Yuhao was assigned to the Freshman Class One under Zhou Yi.
The tri-monthly assessment was a critical hurdle; failing meant expulsion.
Thus, developing a powerful attack method was most suitable.
However!
Zhou Yi, like Yu Xiaogang, was arrogant and only trained the geniuses he favored. The usual training method was—running.
Absurd, isn’t it?
So many efficient training methods unused, yet long-distance running was preferred.
No one could understand.
But Zhuge Lan knew well that running alone could improve agility.
Moreover, combining agility with spiritual detection could yield synergy greater than the sum of its parts.

So expensive?
Zhuge Lan changed the conditions.

Looks like the price is accurate.
A bit expensive, but if it’s effective, it’s worth it.
He glanced at the balance: 46,521 luck points!
Twenty thousand of these were his private stash; the rest were recently earned, half of which belonged to Huo Yuhao.
Still a long way to go.
No rush now; better to save up more.
...
A night passed quietly.
Huo Yuhao trained until dawn, a thick black shell forming around him, the odor strong enough to waft even to the dorm building downwind.
“Yue—”
“Who’s soiled their pants?”
“Did the sewer burst?”
“Find them! Get them here!”
...
The huge commotion woke Huo Yuhao from his training state. He instinctively inhaled...
“Yue—”
Damn!
The smell was so pungent?
Hearing the shouting made him feel guilty.
He looked up toward the lounge chair—both person and chair had vanished.
No need to ask why.
Huo Yuhao hurried to the bathhouse.
He smiled to himself.
Three Mysterious Water Pills ingested had boosted his Muscle Tendon Change Classic progress by two months; the first stage was about 5% complete.
His soul power rose from initial level 13 to mid-level 15!
Training speed increased from 5 times normal to 9 times!
Almost doubled!
He could sense that while the effect of increasing soul power had nearly worn off, the pill’s ability to cleanse bodily impurities still worked reliably under the Muscle Tendon Change Classic.
—This Mysterious Water Pill accelerates Muscle Tendon Change Classic training!
“Technically, it’s not the pill itself but one ingredient—the Arhat Vajra Fruit,” Zhuge Lan corrected. “You don’t have to handle this yourself; just tell Ma Xiaotao, and she’ll naturally send the resources.”
“Huh? Have Sister Xiaotao buy resources for me?” Huo Yuhao hesitated.
“You don’t think joining my Holy Fire Meow Meow Sect grants you Muscle Tendon Change Classic training, do you?” Zhuge Lan said exasperatedly. “We earn luck points by our own merit; what has Ma Xiaotao done? Shouldn’t she repay her benefactor?”
Huo Yuhao scratched his head.
That made sense.
“Enough. Check your own stats.”

Huo Yuhao’s eyes widened!
In just four days, his attributes had risen so fast?
Ridiculous!
“You think that’s fast? You’ve consumed a lot of resources.”
Zhuge Lan lectured—
“Bi-Chun Tea, Mysterious Water Pills, and the Muscle Tendon Change Classic are rare opportunities for ordinary soul masters.”
“Training means competition!”
“Compete for resources, for luck, for the world!”
“So don’t be shy. Compared to the benefits the Muscle Tendon Change Classic brings Ma Xiaotao, your gains are minor.”
“Besides, the Vajra Arhat Fruit accelerates the Muscle Tendon Change Classic. That info alone is worth a fortune to Ma Xiaotao.”
Huo Yuhao silently took note.
No one had ever taught him these truths.
If not for Brother Lan pointing it out, he would have had to suffer a lot to understand.
He took a thorough wash, finally rinsing away the almost-settled stench.
Returning to his dorm, he reached to push the door open, but it swung open by itself. His hand missed the handle and landed on Wang Dong’s chest.
Wang Dong’s eyes instantly became dangerous!
But Huo Yuhao withdrew his hand quickly, smiled kindly, and stepped aside to let him pass.
Wang Dong’s face was annoyed but understood Huo Yuhao didn’t mean it.
Besides, Huo Yuhao didn’t know who he really was...
But still, he was angry!
“I’m the one who gets blamed if you’re late!”
He strode past Huo Yuhao and left quickly.
Huo Yuhao sniffed the air—it smelled strangely pleasant.
He didn’t think much of it.
He returned to his long-unseen small bed, sat cross-legged, and resumed the Muscle Tendon Change Classic.
Only half an hour passed; not enough time for many impurities to be expelled, so no odor.
Why not go outside?
The furious classmates, seniors, and upperclasswomen were still searching for the source of the stench.
He was afraid of a trap waiting for him.
