A burst of praise erupted from the class. Many of the girls looked at Declan in utter adoration. To donate close to twenty million without much thought, Declan must have been extraordinarily wealthy.Declan’s image in his classmates’ eyes improved once again.However, some of them did notice the tiny details—Circe especially. She observed Darryl. She could clearly see that every single time Declan donated the money, his hands trembled. Darryl, on the other hand, remained calm all this while. He could donate tens of millions and still remain poised.She was more interested in Darryl out of the two of them.Darryl could not help but laugh. “Declan, are you almost broke?” he mocked.Declan could barely afford the meal at the Oriental Pearl yesterday. He had just donated seventeen million, so he must not have much left. Darryl took his phone and donated once more.There was dead silence once again. Declan swallowed hard. When he saw the ranking list, he was floored.Twenty milli
Katherine did not tell anyone that she dropped by two levels to a Level Four Master General. How did Darryl find out?“Miss Katherine,” he laughed as he spoke slowly. “Like I said yesterday, the Spirit Petrification Elixir had some issues. Sadly, no one believed me.”Katherine did not speak, biting down on her lip nervously. Did the Spirit Petrification Elixir truly cause it?“If I’m not mistaken, you will drop two more levels every day,” he continued. “According to your current level, you’ll become an ordinary being within the week.”Katherine’s expression darkened. There was fear in her eyes, her lips trembling.It took her a lot of effort to become a Level One Master Marquis. She even became an Elder of the Xiaoyao sect! Everyone respected her.If she became an ordinary human being, she would lose everything.Katherine’s mind blanked out. “Darryl, did you come up with this lie to frighten me?” she snarled.She came to her senses. She had heard of the Spirit Petrification Eli
Abbess Mother Serendipity was meditating at the pavilion in the courtyard. She exuded an ethereal aura in her long white dress.There was a silhouette at the courtyard door peeking in with an evil smile. It was Florian Darby.Ever since the gorgeous Emei sect followers moved into the mansion next door, he hoped to have a memorable encounter with them. However, Abbess Mother Serendipity and the others rarely left the mansion. They were mostly in the courtyard.Florian dared not disobey his grandfather’s orders, so he stood by the fence to look in. Suddenly, an idea came to him.Abbess Mother Serendipity noticed Florian. “Mister Florian,” she greeted politely. “May I help you?”“Abbess Mother Serendipity, sorry to disturb you,” he laughed sincerely. “I was thinking… Since the Mid Autumn Festival is approaching in two days, I would like to invite you and the followers to have a meal at our place.”Abbess Mother Serendipity thought about his offer. “That would be asking too much from
“What thief?” Yvonne asked curiously as she overheard the Palmer sisters’ sneers.Daisy smiled and said, “Yvonne, didn’t you hear? Darryl stole someone’s handphone yesterday. You’d better stay away from that thief.”Yvonne smiled, not believing a single word. Darryl stealing phones? This was the funniest thing she ever heard.He could live comfortably for the rest of his life just by relying on his skill in authenticating antiques and artifacts. Why would he steal phones? Darryl ignored Daisy, completely engrossed in examining the piece of jade.“There is a carving of a foreigner playing a musical instrument. If I’m right, this should be from the jade carving of it. This jade is a gem, estimated to be worth roughly around one and a half million or so.”Lily’s face was filled with admiration as she heard Darryl’s analysis. “Darryl, you’re wonderful!” she cheered.How did she not know sooner that he knew so much about antiques?Yvonne was equally in awe as well. Even her father
Xavier King was a Level Five Master General from the Kunlun sect.His biggest problem was that he was a pervert. He lusted after women. He noticed Lily and Yvonne on the first day of school and tried getting close to them.He was unhappy that the two of them were so close with Darryl, so he threw the ball at him without a second thought.“I’m so sorry, the ball slipped!” Xavier smiled“It’s fine,” Darryl replied nonchalantly.Xavier picked up the ball and returned to the court.Darryl continued his conversation with Circe. “Sure, let’s discuss where to eat after school.”The belle of the school was buying him a meal. It would be dumb to not accept. As Circe left, she cheered silently, not showing it outwardly. She maintained her usual ice-cold composure. Lily hooked her arm around Darryl’s arm as she asked, “Why is she apologizing to you? Why is she buying you a meal?”Yvonne was curious as well. After all, Circe was the belle of the school. Plenty of men had tried to court
Xavier immediately withdrew his fist. “Oh, Miss Katherine,” he chuckled as he sized her up. Katherine was incredibly charming; her maturity immensely attractive.Lily let out a sigh of relief under her breath. Thank goodness, Miss Katherine came in time. If not, Darryl would have gotten a beating.After all, Xavier was a teacher. How could Darryl fight back?Katherine frowned. “Mister Xavier, what were you all doing?” she asked.She watched the entire scene unfold. “Nothing, we were just joking around.” Xavier laughed loudly.Katherine obviously did not buy any of his words. “I saw everything. Mister Xavier, as a PE teacher, how could you bully your students?” she accused coldly.Katherine also loathed Xavier. His perverse character was widely known among the Six orthodox sects.“Miss Katherine, you must be mistaken!” Xavier bitterly smiled while pretending to be innocent. “How could I bully a student? I was just playing with him. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the other
Katherine took a long breath before continuing, “The possibility of mastering these manuals are only one in a thousand. So, don’t get your hopes up in mastering these on this occasion.”How hard could it be?Darryl frowned. “Miss Katherine, when can I enter?” he asked“I can bring you there now,” she replied.“Miss Katherine, please wait here for a while,” Darryl interrupted. He ran back to Circe with an apologetic look on his face.“Circe, I’m so sorry," he apologized, "I have something on with Miss Katherine. It looks like I won’t be able to have a meal with you. Can we take a rain check?”Having a meal with a gorgeous woman was tempting, but who could resist mastering the manuals from one of the Six orthodox sects?"Okay." Circe unhappily nodded and replied bluntly. No man has ever rejected her! Darryl was the first.Half an hour later, Darryl followed Katherine to the library. The school bell had just rung, so many students had entered as well.They pushed through the crow
PURE ENERGY SCRIPTURE.The name seemed powerful! Darryl cheered happily. He impatiently flipped the manual open, reading a few sentences of small words on the first page.‘The Pure Energy Scripture belongs to the Shaolin sect, created by Bodhidharma. It is a masterpiece of the Internal Energy.’‘Internal Energy? Was this not about powerful skills?’Nevertheless, he continued flipping through the book, eventually becoming deeply engrossed in it.It did not turn out to be any ordinary Internal Energy book. It described in detail that if this skill was mastered, the user’s Internal Energy would become as pure as possible. That meant if one fully mastered the Pure Energy Scripture, they could easily overpower other cultivators of the same rank.At that, Darryl was ecstatic. He crossed his legs, lowered his energy field, and started cultivating.The Mid-Autumn Festival arrived two days later. The entire city was in a festive mood, with moon cakes being sold everywhere.Many people c
