Cultivation Online novel Chapter 1981

When Yuan arrived at the training ground, Xi Meili was engaged in a fierce spar with one of the young dragons.

"What happened to her? She’s improved a lot since I last saw her. Even her cultivation has soared," Yuan remarked as they watched from a distance.

Xi Meili’s cultivation had somehow soared to the peak of Divine Ancestor in two short years, and her aura had grown so exponentially that Yuan almost didn’t recognize her at first.

"She’s trained with our most experienced instructors nearly every single day for the last two years. It was already apparent from the very beginning that she had tremendous potential and talent, but we’ve underestimated how much talent was dwelling within her."

"After training for a year, her training progress suddenly skyrocketed toward the heavens, as if something within her bloodline awakened," said the Dragon Emperor.

"Honestly, I was quite surprised when it happened," he added. "Her bloodline is more powerful than I’d initially anticipated. I’m really intrigued by its origins."

"She’s closely related to the Dragon Ancestor," Yuan said.

"Dragon Ancestor… I wonder where he is right now."

Eventually, Xi Meili defeated her opponent.

"Damn it! I lost again!" The young dragon complained out loud.

"It was a good fight." Xi Meili extended her arm toward her opponent.

The young dragon grabbed it and spoke with a defeated smile, "You’re a monster, Senior Sister."

"You only say that because you’ve never seen a real monster before," Xi Meili chuckled.

It was at this moment that Xi Meili noticed Yuan.

"Speaking of the devil…"

She leaped from the stage and landed before Yuan.

"I didn’t realize you’d be back today! Welcome back, Yuan!"

"I’m back," he smiled.

"I’ve been so focused on training that it doesn’t even feel that long since you left," she said.

"I can tell. You’ve worked hard."

"I know you just came back, but how about a spar?"

"Why not? I might as well stretch my body before I activate the teleportation device."

Yuan jumped onto the stage with Xi Meili, and the two of them began sparring immediately. However, neither was going all out in the beginning, and they chatted as they fought.

"I heard you had to protect the Azure Dragon Clan from an invasion. How was it?"

"It was a good experience since I got to fight with Immortals and even a few God Ascension experts."

"Hm? Wait! You’re already at the peak of Immortal Ascension?! I was going to brag about my cultivation progress, too!" Xi Meili exclaimed after noticing his cultivation.

Though she was happy for him, Xi Meili couldn’t help but feel a little dejected since she thought she’d closed the distance between them, even if it was just slightly.

However, she quickly shook off those negative thoughts and declared, "I’m going to train even harder!"

"That’s the spirit." Yuan laughed.

Their spar quickly increased in intensity, with both of them using Dragon Awakening at the end.
