After stretching his body, Mo Yuan walked toward the window and looked outside.
The streets of Holy Base were already filled with people. Cultivators could be seen moving in every direction, while vehicles passed along the wide roads. The entire city seemed full of life.
’Hmm, the others should have received their missions by now. I wonder what kind of missions they got.’
Mo Yuan couldn’t help but feel curious.
However, he knew that the Human Federation wouldn’t allow candidates to share the details of their missions with one another. It was probably a way to prevent them from helping each other complete the tests.
’Sigh... Whatever.’
He stopped thinking about it and turned his attention inward.
Inside his body, the number of Shadow Elemental Particles had now reached 1.5 million. More importantly, his proficiency in converting Primordial Qi particles into Shadow Elemental Particles had increased to forty per second.
’Not bad! At this rate, I should be able to reach the Sovereign Realm very soon.’
A smile appeared on his face.
His progress over the past three days had been amazing. His proficiency had increased from zero to forty particles per second and it was still improving. If things continued like this, his cultivation speed would become even more frightening.
While he was thinking, Mo Ran came out of the bathroom, looking refreshed.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
"I’m coming!" Mo Ran called out before walking over and opening it.
Standing outside were Mu Qingying, Mu Shaobei, Qin Wushang, Ming Yue and Bai Ningning.
"Good morning, everyone!" Mo Yuan greeted them with a smile.
"Good morning!"
Everyone returned his greeting.
"Buddy, we’ve received our missions!" Mu Shaobei said excitedly.
The others also nodded.
"Oh? That was fast. I don’t think I’ve received mine yet."
Mo Yuan glanced at the card he had received from the academy. There was still no notification on it.
Hearing this, Mu Qingying laughed softly.
"That’s because of your strength. Senior David already told us that your mission would probably take longer to prepare."
Mo Yuan smiled helplessly.
"Yes, yes. I guess I have no choice but to wait."
He then looked at everyone and asked, "So, how are your missions? Do you think you can pass?"
As soon as he asked, the atmosphere changed slightly.
Mu Qingying lowered her eyes, while Mu Shaobei, Qin Wushang and Bai Ningning also looked a little solemn. Only Ming Yue still had a smile on her face.
After a moment, Mu Qingying spoke.
"I’ve decided not to attempt the mission. I’ll apply to another academy instead. I’ve been looking into a few of them and I think I have a chance of getting accepted but I don’t think I can pass the Human Federation Academy’s test."
Mo Yuan looked at her and nodded.
"That’s fine. We can meet whenever you want. Holy Base is huge but getting around the city isn’t difficult. It won’t take much time for us to meet."
Hearing this, Mu Qingying smiled and nodded.
"Yes, yes."
She had already made her decision, so there was no need for Mo Yuan to persuade her. After all, joining another academy was still a good choice.
Mu Shaobei, Qin Wushang and Bai Ningning, however, still seemed worried about their chances.
Mu Shaobei finally clenched his fists and said, "I’ll do my best to get into the Human Federation Academy, buddy. Then we can study together!"
The others nodded in agreement.
Mo Yuan laughed.
"Hahaha, don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll pass."
He then turned toward Ming Yue.
"And you? You look quite confident."
A faint blush appeared on Ming Yue’s face.
"I’ll do my best!"
Mo Yuan nodded with a smile.
Considering her talent, he believed she had a good chance of passing. Although her Cultivation Talent was only Ultimate Grade, her Exceptional Grade talent gave her considerable potential. Reaching Monarch Realm in the future shouldn’t be impossible for her.
As for going beyond that, even Mo Yuan couldn’t say.
"Alright, then. Mu Qingying, you can stay with Mo Ran for a while. That way, she won’t get lonely when I leave for my mission."
Hearing this, Mo Ran immediately nodded.
"Yes! Sister Qingying is my favourite!"
Mu Qingying couldn’t help but laugh when she heard that.
"Hahaha!"
The others also laughed and the slightly gloomy atmosphere finally eased.
Just then, Mu Shaobei spoke up.
"Come on, let’s go eat. We also need to leave for our missions."
Hearing this, everyone nodded.
Goldy and Kitty, who had been lazily sleeping nearby, immediately raised their heads when they heard the word eat. Their sleepy expressions disappeared in an instant.
Mo Yuan glanced at them and shook his head with a smile.
’These two really know when to wake up.’
Everyone went downstairs to the hotel’s dining area, found a table and enjoyed their breakfast together.
After finishing their meal, they prepared to leave.
"Good luck with your missions!" Mo Yuan said.
"You too, buddy. Hopefully, we’ll all get into the academy!"
Mu Shaobei waved at him, while the others also said their goodbyes.
Soon, everyone left.
Mo Yuan watched their backs for a moment and shook his head.
He genuinely hoped they would all pass. However, he also knew that the Human Federation Academy’s entrance test wasn’t easy. Some of them might have to choose another academy.
He then turned toward Mu Qingying, who was still standing nearby.
"Let’s go upstairs."
"Okay."
Mo Yuan, Mo Ran and Mu Qingying returned to their room.
Once inside, Mo Yuan looked at the two girls and said, "I’ll be cultivating for now. You two can do whatever you want. Also, if you need money, I’ve already transferred some to your accounts."
"Thank you, brother!"
Mo Ran stuck out her tongue playfully.
At first, she had been hesitant to accept so much money from her brother. After all, they had lived a poor life for so many years and she was still not used to spending large amounts.
But when she saw the balance in her account, her eyes had practically turned into money signs.
She had never imagined that her brother would become so rich!
Mo Yuan simply laughed at her reaction before returning to his bed.
He sat cross-legged and began cultivating once again.
’By tomorrow, I should receive my mission.’
With that thought, he closed his eyes and focused on absorbing the Shadow Elemental Particles.
The day passed quietly.
Mo Ran and Mu Qingying spent their time chatting and watching television, while Goldy and Kitty continued their usual lazy routine. Mo Yuan, on the other hand, remained focused on cultivation.
Soon, another morning arrived.
It was 9 AM when a sudden flash of light came from the card lying on the table.
Mo Yuan’s eyes immediately opened.
He stopped cultivating, got up from the bed and picked up the card.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
’Looks like it’s finally time for my mission.’
