"Of course, if you don’t want to tell me, that’s fine as well." Wang Ming added.
After a moment of silence, Yuan said, "It’s Sword Qi."
"Sword Qi? I have never heard of this technique before. Where did you learn such a powerful technique?"
"Cultivation Online," he responded calmly.
Wang Ming’s eyes widened with surprise.
As far as he was aware, there hasn’t been a single person that has successfully learned a technique from Cultivation Online that wasn’t a cultivation technique.
"Congratulations, Yuan. You’re the first person I know of that has successfully learned a martial technique from Cultivation Online." Wang Ming said after his daze.
"Anyways, it’s getting late. I will be here again tomorrow if you’d like to spar again." Wang Ming then said.
Yuan nodded.
Once Wang Ming left the scene, the crowd around them also dispersed.
However, they didn’t stop talking about Yuan and Wang Ming’s spar for the rest of the day.
Shortly after Wang Ming left, Meixiu returned to the first floor.
"I am finished for the day. Are you ready to leave, or do you want to train more?" Meixiu asked Yuan after returning to him.
"Let’s go home. I had enough training today." Yuan said.
Then he noticed the bow and arrows in Meixiu’s grasp.
"Where’d you get those?"
"The instructor gave them to me so that I could practice even at home," she said.
"Looks like you had fun today," Yuan chuckled.
"Yes, archery was more entertaining than I’d anticipated. I think I will stick with it for a little longer."
Sometime later, they returned to the immortal caves.
Yuan sat down and prepared to remove his mask, but Meixiu quickly said, "Wait a moment. Don’t take your mask off just yet. Let me look around the place for a little bit."
Yuan wasn’t sure what she was trying to do but he nodded his head regardless.
Then he watched as Meixiu searched every nook and cranny of the place.
"What are you looking for?" He decided to ask her.
"If there is any surveillance in this place," she calmly responded.
"L-Like hidden cameras? I don’t think they would do something like that..." Yuan said in a somewhat dazed voice.
"I know, but we can never be too careful."
Many minutes later, once Meixiu was satisfied with the results, she removed her mask and said, "The place looks clear."
Yuan also removed his mask afterward.
"Ah... I am tired... I don’t think I have ever practiced this intensively before, not even in Cultivation Online." Yuan released a long sigh.
Sometime later, Meixiu asked, "Do you want to take a shower first?"
"Yes, I have been sweating all day."
"You can go inside first. I will follow you after I unpack our clothes."
"Okay."
Yuan then went into the bathroom that was larger than he’d anticipated, and there was even a square bathtub in the corner.
After removing his clothes and tossing them inside the laundry basket, Yuan took a seat and started rinsing his body with warm water.
"Hmm?" Yuan noticed something different about this water.
Compared to the water in his apartment, this water actually contained a hint of spiritual energy!
"The spiritual energy in this place is so potent that it even affects the water?" He mumbled to himself.
A few minutes later, Meixiu entered the bathroom and started washing his back. Once that was done, she assisted him in the front for a couple of minutes before rinsing him off.
After drying his body, Yuan left the bathroom to wear some clothes that were neatly folded on the desk.
Meanwhile, Meixiu stayed in the bathroom to clean herself next.
Once they were both clean and getting hungry, they realized something.
"There’s no kitchen in this place? So we have to eat outside?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.
He didn’t mind eating outside, but that would require him to remove his mask.
"We can get the food there and eat it back here," Meixiu suggested.
"Let’s do that." Yuan agreed.
They then wore their masks that had been washed by Meixiu and prepared to leave the immortal caves, but right as they left the place, they noticed a figure approaching their direction.
"Senior Wang?" They immediately recognized the identity of this individual.
"Good evening, Yuan. Where are you heading this late?" Senior Wang asked them.
"We are planning on going to the cafeteria for some food since there’s no kitchen in the immortal cave," he said.
Senior Wang chuckled and said, "That’s exactly why I am here. I forgot to tell you about that, I am sorry."
"Anyways, the cafeteria is half an hour away from the immortal caves, and it’s mostly for the ordinary disciples, so we don’t normally go there when we’re training in the immortal caves."
"Then where do you go?" Yuan asked.
"We either have someone deliver it to us, or we go to a special cafeteria that’s made specifically for people training at the immortal caves."
Senior Wang pointed to a certain path and said, "Follow this path and you should arrive at a restaurant called ’Silver Restaurant’. It’s only a five-minute walk."
She then pointed to another path and said, "There’s also an open area where you can do some outdoor grilling if that’s your thing."
"I understand. Thank you."
"By the way, I heard you had a spar with my grandson today, and you defeated him spectacularly." Senior Wang suddenly mentioned their exchange today.
"I knew he was from your family since he had the same surname, but I didn’t think he was your grandson."
"Yes, you should’ve seen his face when he told me about how he’d lost to you. I have never seen him so happy despite being the loser. I think he’s just happy to have a worthy opponent that can challenge him since he can defeat even the elite disciples quite easily."
And she continued, "He will surely approach you for more spars in the future. If it ever gets annoying, you can tell me and I will do something about it."
