Chapter 115 Weaknesses, Enhancing Mental Strength
"Zhuqing, you don't have any ulterior motives, do you?"
Xiao Wu seemed to have seen through Zhu Zhuqing's thoughts, and was somewhat surprised.
To her surprise, how could such an introverted girl like Zhu Qing have such thoughts?
All eyes were on Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed red at first, but then she quickly returned to normal.
She nodded slightly.
Dai Mubai was somewhat surprised.
"I don't want to be in that helpless situation again like last time."
Zhu Zhuqing bit her lower lip tightly, feeling a lingering fear.
She couldn't imagine what she would do if Hongjun really encountered an accident.
A moment of silence fell over everyone.
Ma Hongjun remained silent. In the end, it was his fault for not handling things well last time, which left several girls with a lingering trauma.
"Zhuqing, don't worry, this will never happen again. I promise you."
Ma Hongjun extended his little finger and said softly.
Seeing the boy's serious expression, Zhu Zhuqing remained silent, then softly hummed in agreement.
When the group returned to the academy, it was already late at night.
"This is so annoying. It's all that Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus's fault. I was planning to take advantage of the opportunity tonight and confess my feelings."
Ning Rongrong was somewhat annoyed on her way back.
"Rongrong, didn't you say it would be some time?"
Xiao Wu was a little confused. Could it be that she had drunk too much and remembered it wrong?
Ning Rongrong immediately covered her mouth, a embarrassed smile on her face.
It seems I accidentally revealed my true feelings.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing understood everything.
The two exchanged a glance and immediately chased after Ning Rongrong, pinching the girl's ticklish spots hard.
"Serves you right for lying to us! Serves you right for keeping secrets from us!"
Xiao Wu's movements were extremely fast, and she showed no mercy.
Zhu Zhuqing was no less impressive.
Ning Rongrong was no match for the two of them at all; she could only laugh as they pinched her, tears welling up in her eyes uncontrollably.
"Okay...okay...it was my...mistake, please forgive me."
Oscar and Dai Mubai watched the girls playing around in front of them from behind, glancing enviously at the red-haired boy's back, and tears of envy streamed down their faces.
Back in his room, the fatigue of the past few days suddenly overwhelmed him, and Ma Hongjun felt a rare sense of weariness.
He shook his head, sat up in bed, and opened the system panel.
Name: Ma Hongjun

[Current Fate Line Reversal Result: 22%]
Evolution Points: 7500
During this time, I did quite a few things here and there, although they weren't anything crucial in the plot. The system rewarded me with some evolution points, but unfortunately, not many.
Looking at his data, Ma Hongjun pondered how to use the evolution points.
"Add it to soul power?"
"No, no, there's still some soul power left in my body from my previous cultivation that I haven't fully absorbed. Adding more soul power would be a waste."
The red-haired boy muttered to himself.
His gaze fell on the Qi and Blood Soul Ring.
"Qi and Blood Soul Rings?"
After thinking for a moment, he shook his head again.
"It's still not working! In just a few days, my physical strength has made a qualitative leap. Too much of a good thing is bad. Moreover, my Qi and Blood Soul Rings have already reached their current limit. It would be inappropriate to upgrade them rashly."
I hesitated for a long time.
Ma Hongjun suddenly remembered the spiritual power that he had previously forgotten.
Unless one possesses a special martial soul, no soul master would typically choose to cultivate spiritual power.
Currently, mental strength is my biggest weakness. If I encounter a specialized Soul Master, it will be very troublesome for me.
Previously, I had never used evolution points to enhance my mental power, not because I wanted to completely relinquish my mental power, but because there was simply no need to do so before.
For low-level Soul Masters, the difference in spiritual power is not significant, and even if they are strengthened, the difference will not be noticeable.
Furthermore, mental strength will increase as the Soul Master's level increases.
In battles against Soul Masters of the same level, there is no need to use mental power at all. In battles against opponents of a higher level, one's mental power is simply insufficient to cause damage to the enemy.
When fighting opponents of a higher level, the opponent probably won't bother using their mental power against them, and over time, they'll slack off on mental power training.
"The National Advanced Soul Master Tournament will be held soon. There will be many powerful opponents in this competition, and quite a few of them will have strong mental strength."
Ma Hongjun pondered what happened next.
This competition is full of top players, so he naturally won't expose his weaknesses.
Losing the game is fine, but if someone with ulterior motives targets you, that would be terrible.
"7500 evolution points should be enough to raise my mental strength to a higher level."
"It's not suitable to upgrade directly now. I'll upgrade my mental strength after I obtain my fourth spirit ring, so that I can maximize the use of evolution points."
Ma Hongjun was pondering, but he didn't notice the commotion coming from the doorway.
"Knock knock knock..."
A crisp knock sounded on the door, and Gu Yuena's voice came from outside.
"I'm coming in."
The girl's clear, cool voice rang out, and then her figure appeared in front of Ma Hongjun.
The red-haired boy rubbed his forehead.
Gu Yuena's knock on the door was not an inquiry, but a notification.
The girl's indifferent gaze fell on the red-haired boy, and she spoke slowly.
"It's time to heal."
Gu Yuena's eyes flickered as she spoke.
She didn't know why, but she always remembered it clearly at this time of year.
Once the seven days were up, they came knocking on our door.
Ma Hongjun suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten again!
