Chapter 65 Mother, that woman is strange!
Perhaps knowing it was in the wrong, the system immediately offered an explanation.
Although the host lacks talent for cultivation, the cultivation points awarded by the system can be accumulated directly.
That's more like it!
In other words, although Zhou Wei has no talent, she can directly increase her cultivation level as long as she completes the system tasks.
That saves you the trouble of arduous cultivation.
"How many years of cultivation can be rewarded in total from the four missions?"
[The host has completed two main promotion quests and two random promotion quests, for a total reward of 300 years of cultivation.]
!!!
Three hundred years?
Zhou Wei was so excited that her hands were trembling.
Wan Qianliang was only twenty years old, yet he had already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
Even if he started cultivating in his mother's womb, he would only have cultivated for twenty years.
If I suddenly gain three hundred years of cultivation, won't I become an immortal?
Zhou Wei was already feeling lightheaded; a heavenly gate even appeared before her eyes, just waiting for her to ride away on a crane!
But the system's next voice pulled her down abruptly.
[After rewarding three hundred years of cultivation, the host's current realm is: First-Rank Martial Artist.]
???
"System, when did the cultivation world become so inflated? I've gained three hundred years of cultivation, and I'm still only a first-grade martial artist. I've just entered the field."
"Wan Qianliang has only been cultivating for twenty years, and he is already close to becoming a Grandmaster."
"Did you go to northern Myanmar for further studies and come here to scam people?"
[Cultivation level is accumulated and then converted based on talent.]
[Wan Qianliang's Talent: Genius]
[The host was originally of mediocre talent and had no possibility of cultivation. After accumulating three hundred years of cultivation, he will indeed become a first-grade martial artist.]
Okay, Zhou Wei understood.
The root of all this lies in that talent, which will be explained in parentheses later (you can never master it even if you practice until you die).
However, Zhou Wei used the cultivation points earned from mission rewards to accumulate them, which was equivalent to exploiting a bug.
The system's judgment was very simple and straightforward; it simply assumed that Zhou Wei would not die and would continue cultivating indefinitely.
With Zhou Wei's talent, she could become a first-grade martial artist after three hundred years of cultivation.
This time, Zhou Wei behaved herself.
Talent is like money; you either have it or you don't!
She has mediocre talent; even if she doesn't die and cultivates tirelessly for three hundred years, she will only be a beginner in martial arts.
It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. Compared to someone as gifted as Wan Qianliang, Zhou Wei is utterly trash.
Fortunately, she had a cheat code, otherwise she would have lived an ordinary life.
Speaking of talent, Zhou Wei couldn't help but feel curious.
"System, what are the Princess's talents?"
Jiang Yueli's Talent: Genius
Another genius?
"What about Qi Jingming's talent?"
Qi Jingming's talent: Genius
Zhou Wei was starting to doubt her beliefs.
"Where are Shen Shuqing, Su Yunjin, and Mei Xingyue?"
Shen Shuqing's talent: Genius
[Su Yunjin's Talent: Genius]
Mei Xingyue's talent: Genius
???
Was it intentional? They're all geniuses, and she's the only mediocre one.
"Is your assessment of talent based on the distinction between genius and mediocrity?" Zhou Wei asked, somewhat skeptical. "They're both geniuses, so why isn't Qi Jingming's cultivation level as high as Wan Qianliang's? Even geniuses need to be ranked, right?"
In the cultivation world, talent can be summarized into three categories: mediocre, average, and genius.
Mediocre people cannot even begin to grasp the basics before their lifespan runs out.
[A person of average appearance cannot become a Grandmaster before their lifespan is exhausted.]
[A genius may reach the Grandmaster realm in their lifetime; beyond that, it depends on individual ability.]
This division... upon closer inspection, makes quite a bit of sense.
It only considers lifespan as the limit, without taking other factors into account.
For example, among those of average appearance, some will just enter the Grandmaster realm before their lifespan is exhausted, while others will have already reached the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
But these differences are irrelevant when viewed from the perspective of life!
As long as one cannot exceed their lifespan, a difference of a fraction or a difference of ten or eight years makes no difference.
The path of spiritual cultivation is indeed this cruel!
This gave Zhou Wei a new insight: the heroines with great fortune are basically geniuses, and if they have the opportunity to cultivate, they will surely make great progress in a day and a half.
If she wants to survive better in this world, she needs to increase her strength even faster!
It's not a pleasant feeling to have someone constantly biting your butt.
It seems that in the future, I need to be more proactive in contacting the heroines with good fortune, so that I can obtain more cultivation rewards.
……
Inside the prison cell of Zhaoyu Prison.
Su Yunjin had just woken up from her sleep.
After calming down, I saw that the jailer had already placed the food at the cell door.
She walked over, picked up a steamed bun with disdain, broke it in half, and went back to the straw mat.
As for the remaining cabbage leaves, they didn't even glance at them.
He broke the half-eaten, dark bun into pieces and threw it into a far corner of the cell.
Soon after, several mice appeared and ate the steamed bun clean.
Su Yunjin stared at the rats, her eyes filled with hatred.
"It's all that bitch Zhou Wei's fault, and Princess Jiang Yueli's fault too, otherwise I wouldn't be locked up in such a filthy place."
"Fortunately, I have a spiritual spring in my space so I don't have to worry about food and drink. If I had to eat those black steamed buns and spoiled food every day, I might as well be dead!"
Su Yunjin cursed for a while, then looked down at her clothes.
"I haven't changed my clothes for two days. I'll go into my space and change into a different set when it's quiet at night."
"Luckily, I had the foresight to prepare several sets of the same clothes in my space, so even if I changed them, no one else would be able to tell."
Su Yunjin leaned against the brick wall of the prison cell, thinking of Lu Zhiyan.
"I wonder when Ayan will come to rescue me?"
"The fact that Ayan was brought from the prison of the Five Cities Military Command to this Zhaoyu prison must mean that he argued with the Emperor."
Su Yunjin knew that the Zhaoyu Prison was managed by the Embroidered-Robed Envoys, who were subordinate to the Great Zhou Emperor.
Thinking of Lu Zhiyan fighting against imperial power for her sake, Su Yunjin felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
Even the boredom of being in jail has lessened a bit!
"Once I get out of here, I'll make sure Ayan chops that bitch Zhou Wei to pieces and feeds her to the dogs!"
"Although I can't touch the eldest princess, how can I not touch a lowly maidservant like her?"
As she fantasized about how to torment Zhou Wei, Su Yunjin's eyelids began to droop.
Just then, she heard a commotion outside the cell.
An embroidered-clad official walked in front, followed by a family of four.
The embroidered-robed messenger's voice was icy as he gave instructions.
"Don't blame me for not warning you. Once you're in this prison, don't even think about escaping. Otherwise, there are hundreds of tortures waiting for you."
Jiang Nianmei, nestled in Mei Xingyue's arms, trembled all over!
I know these words are meant for her.
The embroidered-robed official then said, "However, since the Princess has not given any instructions, I will not mistreat you."
"There's medicine in the cell. Apply it as soon as you get in, or you'll die here."
Mei Xingyue looked at the two knife wounds on Jiang Nianmei's face and the mouth full of blood of Jiang Nianyue.
My heart is filled with boundless hatred!
Jiang Yueli, Zhou Wei, don't let me find an opportunity.
Once I leave and reunite with the Crown Prince, you will suffer a fate worse than death!
With this little bit of psychological support, Mei Xingyue immediately applied medicine to the two children as soon as she entered the prison cell.
Before leaving, the embroidered messenger pointed towards Su Yunjin's cell.
“You’re lucky to be neighbors with Boss Su. If it weren’t for your sharp eyes, woman, giving me some money, you wouldn’t be in cell B.”
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Boss Su. She's been in here for several days now. Ask her if she enjoys having a quiet cell all to herself. Isn't it comfortable?"
Mei Xingyue ignored him.
This person is utterly bizarre and eccentric.
They're all in jail, who cares if it's a private and quiet suite?
Su Yunjin sat in the corner of the opposite cell, keeping a watchful eye on the Embroidered-Robed Envoy and the Mei family of four without making a sound.
After the embroidered messenger left, Su Yunjin chose to ignore the probing gaze that Mei Xingyue cast at her.
She turned her head to the side and leaned against the straw mat in the corner, pretending to doze off!
Mei Xingyue found this woman inexplicable. They were all here to go to jail, so what was so superior about her?
Just as she was about to set up the straw mat, her eldest son, Jiang Nianxing, suddenly grabbed her hand.
In a voice only the two of them could hear, he said, "Mother, that woman is strange!"
