Elemental Card King.

Chapter 34 Summer Lotus
After finishing her meal, Xia He declined the invitation from a female student from the same school to take a walk after dinner and went straight back to the meditation room.

When they arrived, the room was empty.

She returned to her yoga mat, took out wireless earphones and a book from her small handbag on the floor, and quietly listened to music while reading the novel.

Half an hour later, she placed a cute cartoon cat bookmark into the book and then closed it.

Xia He continued her practice alone in the quiet and peaceful meditation room.

Nine o'clock.

A slight tactile vibration came from the delicate wristwatch on her wrist, abruptly interrupting her meditation.

The alarm I set has gone off.

Xia He turned her cool face slightly to the side and looked at the figure sitting cross-legged not far away. The row of material cards reappeared in front of the other person, but three were missing.

After taking one last look, she quietly and silently left the meditation room.

After being booked out for a city-level selection competition, the city's cultural activity center closed at 9:30 p.m.

After Ms. He Yun and several other teachers made their rounds, the students who had been lingering were all asked to leave.

Once inside the meditation room, the group remained outside in the corridor, whispering amongst themselves, and no one disturbed Su Chen inside.

"What kind of cultivation maniac is he? He can really sit still."

The meditation room uses a lot of sound-absorbing materials, so when the door is closed, they are not worried that conversations outside will affect the people inside.

"After an afternoon and an evening, this kid is practically inhuman."

"It's really a pity that people who are more talented than you are also working harder than you. Once you fall behind, you're destined never to catch up."

At this time.

Teacher He Yun laughed and said, "According to the current trendy saying 'lying flat,' people who are more outstanding than me are still working hard, so what's the point of me working hard?"

Everyone burst into laughter.

"The overall quality of this year's students can only be described as average. If we take the evaluation cycle of five years as a reference, there is indeed a problem with their mental outlook. They are completely different from my generation."

Although they had a lot of opinions about Wang Liyang himself, there were too many crybabies, gloomy people, and those who gave up halfway through the competition in the venue.

Before participating in the card battle competition, didn't you understand that this is a real competition?

So, they just wanted to come here to freeload off resources.

"Fortunately, we have Su Chen and Xia He, this golden couple. If they both secure a spot on the national training team, their performance evaluation this year will be significantly higher than expected," a teacher said with a smile.

"The golden couple has arrived." Some people were speechless.

"Hmph, if the performance incentives break new records, I'll even acknowledge them as my parents."

孝。

That's incredibly filial.

It was nearly 10 p.m. when Su Chen finally came out.

On his way home, he hitched a ride with Ms. He Yun.

What a pity.

Su Chen actually felt a bit carsick.

"It's as if the moon is moving along with it."

He pressed his face against the car window, his slightly listless eyes gazing at the bright moon in the night sky. Suddenly, he seemed to notice a vortex on the moon, waiting for him to feed him some material.

Without a doubt, he was confused.

"You've been working too hard all day," Teacher He Yun noticed that Su Chen was indeed quite tired.

The meditation enhancement will inevitably create a vortex of devouring during the fusion process, and the card player's mind cannot be relaxed, and must not let their attention wander even for a moment.

Once the perspective shifts, the reinforcement ends.

Su Chen's ability to continuously enhance the Fusion Vortex four times in a single day at the beginner card master stage is truly admirable.

However, a normal card player can only do it once a day at most.

This might be his happy dilemma of consuming seven times the resources.

After returning home.

Su Chen leisurely soaked in the bathtub, his arms outstretched, leaning steadily against the edge of the tub. After a short nap, he regained much of his energy.

The replication of the colorless and transparent divine card has long been completed.

However, the Fire Card I received was the original light green quality version.

I copied it too early.

"Keep it as a souvenir."

Su Chen no longer needs to strengthen it.

It takes up time.

After all, the enhancement and copying functions of the Mysterious Colorless Card cannot be used simultaneously.

He simply started copying it all over again.

"It is estimated that the copying process will take 23 hours and 37 minutes to complete."

The long-awaited 23-hour rule is back.

With the quality transitioning to a higher level and the effect improving, the duplication time has also increased. As a result, the time required for a two-star card will inevitably increase significantly.

He was just a novice card master, and no one at that stage could contract a three-star card. Even if the colorless divine card could ignore his mental power and successfully copy a three-star card, he estimated that it would take at least ten days to half a month, and there was a possibility that he might not be able to copy it successfully.

"Not worth it."

The copy function is essentially created out of thin air, and the cracking process takes a very long time. In comparison, the enhanced function offers the best value for money.

The prerequisite is to provide material cards for colorless divine cards.

After considering the situation, Su Chen began to tentatively plan the strengthening arrangements for the next two weeks.

The second round of copying and cracking strengthens Xiaoling's guardian skills. At the same time, it obtains more material card resources related to the spirit attribute from the city card master association.

"So be it."

Su Chen went to sleep shortly after getting up from his bath.

The next day.

It's not even eight o'clock yet.

Perhaps having learned from yesterday's lesson, none of the participants in the actual competition were late; in fact, they arrived quite early.

When Su Chen arrived, he also heard that many people had been kicked out yesterday afternoon.

51 people left in one day.

In addition, a small rumor quickly spread.

"I heard that the person in charge was indeed from the military. He got into big trouble. Not only did he have to hand over his weapons, but he was also stripped of his military rank, retaining only his original lieutenant colonel rank and benefits. No wonder he was so unhappy yesterday. Could he have taken it out on us?"

If the news is true, the fact that a lieutenant colonel has been assigned to teach a group of high school seniors is undoubtedly a great irony.

"It does sound like that. The instructors at the city association all seem to have a lot of respect for him."

"Let's keep things separate. The resources and food allowances this year are exceptionally high. Can you honestly say you're not benefiting from their generosity?"

Some people have a love-hate relationship with this team leader.

But upon closer reflection, if the news were true, a lieutenant colonel who looks to be in his early thirties, especially a young officer in a prosperous and peaceful era, would be incredibly prestigious.

Moreover, the other party didn't seem to have any powerful connections or background, otherwise they wouldn't have been treated so badly.

So, what's this guy's strength?

"Following him, I'm sure I can learn some real skills."

One-sided affection cannot win the other party's favor.

Not long after he arrived, several people were removed from the list.

Small meditation room number 105.

On the left and right, there were still two figures, the man tall and handsome, and the woman tall and aloof.

Another day has come to an end.

The two seemed to be strictly adhering to the rules of the meditation room, each maintaining solemnity and focus, not uttering a word to each other, and never disturbing others.

One can sit cross-legged and meditate for several hours.

During their lunch break, they exchanged a glance and nodded, remaining silent.

In the afternoon.

The Earth Card gained the property of counter-shock, and Su Chen's seventh enhancement was over. Not a single material card was left on the ground.

"ended."

Su Chen's body leaned backward, and he lay on his back on the ground.

Even with his eyes closed, he could feel a vortex slowly rotating within his dark vision, and his consciousness space seemed to be subtly distorted.

Isn't this also a test of willpower?

The situation is a bit better than yesterday; at least we've been given more rest time.

"Congratulations."

At that moment, a sound like flowing ice spring broke the ethereal and tranquil atmosphere.

When Su Chen, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes, he could see the beautiful figure sitting on his left. Xia He did not turn around, but only mentioned it briefly when she was resting and reading.

"Thanks."

Su Chen responded.

This was the first complete conversation between the two.

Like a ripple accidentally disturbed by a gentle breeze, the indoor atmosphere gradually returned to tranquility.

Perhaps just as his aunt knew, Su Chen, who was starting a new life under someone else's roof, did not want to show any disappointment and was reluctant to see the disdain of his guardian. So he only wanted to do everything perfectly at this stage.

Early romantic relationships among minors are naturally forbidden in his heart.

Su Chen politely declined all the love letters he had received over the years.

At least for now, Su Chen needs to seize the future at this crucial juncture in his life.

After all, many opportunities, once missed, will never come again.

Women will only slow down your meditation practice.

One minute later.

Someone gently pushed open the door outside the meditation room; it was Teacher He Yun.

Seeing that the two people inside were resting, she immediately spoke with a serious expression: "Su Chen, the team leader is calling you. Be prepared."
