Chapter 38 Breakthrough
When Jared arrived home, his parents weren’t around. He figured they were out for a stroll which he thought would do them good.
Without anyone to interrupt, he stayed in his room and continued his training.
With no time to waste, he trained as hard as he could. After all, he wasn’t sure what he was going to face on the fifteenth of July. Although Draco promised him a wonderful opportunity, he was worried that the opportunity could also be dangerous too.
Sitting with his legs folded, he chanted the mantra of the Focus Technique. As his abdomen began to move, the surrounding spiritual energy was gradually drawn into his body.
Jared continued training the entire night and even missed dinner.
Huff!
The moment he opened his eyes, he puffed out a ball of turbid air.
“I didn’t expect the vengeful dragons to be so powerful.”
Gently clenching his fist, Jared felt the power coursing through his veins. Evidently, he had made a breakthrough.
At that moment, Jared had reached Level Five Energy Cultivation. When he was in prison, he had only achieved Level Four under Draco’s guidance. Hence, he was ecstatic and pleasantly surprised to have ascended to Level Five after absorbing the nine vengeful dragons’ energy.
Jared felt as if he had found a shortcut for his training. As long as he absorbed the energy generated from hatred and vengeance, he was able to advance his training at exponential speeds.
Nevertheless, it was a shame that an encounter with such objects depended on luck, given how rare they were.
After exhaling gently, Jared got out of bed and straightened his clothing.
At that moment, Hannah’s voice rang out. “Is that you, Ms. Sullivan? Although I can’t see, I can recognize you from your footsteps.”
“Mrs. Chance, you’re really sharp!” Josephine replied with a smile. “Don’t be a stranger. Just call me Josephine.”
“You’re right, you’re right. Josephine it is!” Hannah’s face lit up as she nodded repeatedly. “Are you here to see Jared? He’s still holed up in his room.”
Turning, she then yelled in the direction of Jared’s room, “Jared, get up, quick! Josephine is here to see you.”
“Mrs. Chance, there’s no need to shout. I’ll go get him myself.”
