Soon, Wang Xiaoqiang met Lotus Princess and Princess Hua Shao again at the Jade Banquet Hall.
Princess Hua Shao wore a long red dress, her skin as fair as snow, with rosy cheeks that looked naturally beautiful, and a little face crafted like jade, exuding a natural charm. A vermilion mole at the center of her brows was like the finishing touch, making her look even more delicate and lovely.
Such a beauty at such a young age!
Since the last meeting, Wang Xiaoqiang noticed that Princess Hua Shao had made significant progress in her cultivation from the original Fivefold Body of the Immortal Venerable to the Eightfold Body of the Immortal Venerable.
Princess Hua Shao, after all, possessed spirit roots with three attributes—a cultivation genius. Moreover, she was furthering her studies at Yueyang Academy, the world's top academy, with substantial cultivation resources from the royal family. Achieving such progress within a few months was not surprising.
Lotus Princess's looks were unchanged, her appearance consistent, with her long black hair elegantly styled. A green hairpin adorned her head, with strands falling gracefully around her temples, her cheeks fair as snow, brows like distant mountains, eyes like autumn water, lips seemingly naturally formed, and not a trace of makeup could be found on her face, as if she was pure gold and flawless jade. Coupled with her slender figure, she appeared graceful and charming.
Like a match made in heaven.
Her dignified and graceful demeanor exuded the charm of a delicate woman, alluring yet not seductive, beautiful yet not vulgar, a gentle warmth with a hint of cold elegance—that maturity and charm far surpassed what Princess Hua Shao could compare.
Lotus Princess's beauty transcended description, reaching a realm beyond words, and any adjective would only demean her.
Princess Hua Shao, as always, looked down on Wang Xiaoqiang arrogantly, examining him from a high and mighty stance. Upon discovering that Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation had reached the Immortal Sage level, her clear and cold beautiful eyes suddenly widened in surprise, pointing at Wang Xiaoqiang she exclaimed, "You, you are Wang Xiaoqiang?..."
"Wang Xiaoqiang has always been true to his name and true to his nature," Wang Xiaoqiang replied humbly yet confidently.
Seeing her daughter lose her composure in astonishment, Lotus Princess glared at her in reminder.
Princess Hua Shao then changed her expression, coughed awkwardly, rolled her eyes at Wang Xiaoqiang, and disdainfully said, "Did you 'dope' yourself with pills..."
Wang Xiaoqiang indeed relied on a large number of demon hearts and pills to reach the Immortal Sage level within a few months, so he was not offended by her words. Smiling faintly, he said, "The Princess truly is astute. I indeed 'doped' myself to the Immortal Sage level using pills."
Upon hearing this, Princess Hua Shao's sneer became more pronounced, deliberately belittling him: "Hum, then your Immortal Sage status must have a lot of water content..."
Wang Xiaoqiang smiled faintly, indifferent.
Lotus Princess said, "The path of cultivation offers many routes, and it traditionally values only the result, not the process. To become an Immortal Sage naturally means one has the abilities of an Immortal Sage..."
"Mother, you overestimate him," Princess Hua Shao retorted sullenly, glancing at Lotus Princess. "The path of cultivation requires a solid foundation, progressing step by step, and pills are merely supplements. It's like eating; grains and cereals are staple foods, whereas vegetables are just supplements. His cultivation, built solely on pills, has too much water content, and consuming a large amount of pills will harm the meridians and body..."
Just as Princess Hua Shao spoke, Lotus Princess turned to Wang Xiaoqiang with a gleaming eye and asked, "Wang Xiaoqiang, what level has your body refining cultivation reached?"
"Uh," Wang Xiaoqiang knew that Lotus Princess was in the Half-Step Immortal King realm, her insight extraordinary, and at such a place, he dared not hide anything, thus confessed honestly, "I have reached the Vajra Body Second Layer cultivation level..."
Upon hearing "Vajra Body Second Layer," not only Princess Hua Shao but even Lotus Princess's expressions changed slightly,
The Vajra Body's refining cultivation is one of the rarest in the Immortal Realm. If an Immortal Sage reaches Vajra Body cultivation, their strength is exceedingly terrifying,
Suffice to say Wang Xiaoqiang, though his cultivation is merely the First Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage, his combined strength is entirely capable of contending with cultivators at the Fifth Soldier Realm of the Immortal Sage.
Wang Xiaoqiang's body refining cultivation served as the strongest rebuttal against Princess Hua Shao's mockery.
Indeed, as Princess Hua Shao mentioned, the path of cultivation necessitates progressing step by step through arduous training, not solely reliant on pills,
In contrast, while using a large amount of pills can cause a backlash to the meridians and body, this is only true for ordinary Qi Refinement cultivators—body cultivators are on a different level.
Cultivators like Wang Xiaoqiang, who have achieved Vajra Body Second Layer, possess meridians and physical bodies so solid and resilient that they can withstand large amounts of pill consumption and the impact of ferocious spiritual power.
Hence, Wang Xiaoqiang ascending to Immortal Sage using pills within just a few months was feasible, and this was a solid cultivation base, not something superficial as Princess Hua Shao claimed.
Noticing Princess Hua Shao's awkwardness, Lotus Princess laughed and said, "Hua Shao, Wang Xiaoqiang is soon entering Yueyang Academy; you will be classmates, so don't hang on to your biases against him..."
Princess Hua Shao pouted and said, "To enter Yueyang Academy, one needs not only cultivation strength but also profound cultural refinement, although certain people are exceptions recommended by my father..."
Speaking, Princess Hua Shao cast a disdainful glance at Wang Xiaoqiang, implying that regardless of his cultivation, without cultural refinement, his talents were hollow, and entering Yueyang Academy was solely reliant on her father—what's there to be proud of!? After delivering the recommendation letter to Wang Xiaoqiang, Huang Ce handed it to him, saying, "Little Qiang, this is a letter of recommendation, with this you can smoothly enter Yueyang Academy."
Wang Xiaoqiang, however, didn't accept the letter, saying, "Your Majesty, please forgive my presumption; I have decided to rely on my real abilities to enter Yueyang Academy."
Understanding from Wang Xiaoqiang's words that he was provoked by Princess Hua Shao, Huang Ce then shot a glare at her and said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Little Qiang, Yueyang Academy's student selection is very strict, even harsh. Your cultivation strength is not a problem, but your cultural refinement..."
"Your Majesty can be rest assured; I am confident!" Wang Xiaoqiang said.
Wang Xiaoqiang's words surprised Huang Ce, Lotus Princess, and Princess Hua Shao. They all knew Wang Xiaoqiang's grassroots origins and his youth, thinking his cultural refinement shallow. But Wang Xiaoqiang faced it with confidence that was rather impressive.
"Good," Huang Ce put away the recommendation letter, clapping in praise, "Little Qiang, such ambition!!"
Princess Hua Shao, however, sneered, "Ha, let's see how you manage to enter Yueyang Academy..."
"Hua Shao, stop pressuring Little Qiang; you're classmates now. Moreover, you're his senior, so take care of him as your junior... Haha..." After looking at Wang Xiaoqiang, then at Princess Hua Shao, Huang Ce laughed heartily.
"He's so capable, why would he need me to take care of him?" Princess Hua Shao's porcelain cheek flushed with a tinge of shame as she frowned.
"Lotus Princess, don't you think Little Qiang and Hua Shao have a good match..." Huang Ce suddenly suggested, making Princess Hua Shao blush all over her face and scold her father, "Father, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Saying so, she stomped her foot and turned around.
Lotus Princess laughed, "I also think so; there's a saying 'not enemies don't congregate,' I look forward to them..."
"If you say more, I won't eat here." Princess Hua Shao angrily stomped and turned to leave but was embraced by Lotus Princess, who said, "Alright, I was just joking. How could a dignified national princess be so petty..." (The novel "Superpower Little Farmer" will have more fresh content on the official WeChat platform, along with a 100% chance to win big prizes.
