Bai Su only called a halt once she reached Level 12, and the other four men had powered up to Level 11 right alongside her.
Nearly every one of them awakened a new Skill.
Bai Su let out a long breath and collapsed bonelessly into Lu Tingyan's arms, tilting her head back in exhaustion. "Next time, let's cut it a bit shorter. Cultivating is exhausting."
She could clearly feel a membrane-like barrier inside her body that she just couldn't break through. Her spiritual power would gather, but no matter how hard she pushed, it was like punching cotton. Her Level simply wouldn't rise.
'This must be what the system was talking about. I need to go through real-world trials to solidify my foundation before I can break through.'
Seeing her collapse only into Lu Tingyan's arms, Li Chenlin couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy. "Susu, it's their fault for being in such a rush. Unlike them, all I would do is worry about you."
