Chapter 641: Bragging
Ma Changyi had finished cleaning when Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Sheng Qingyan, Chu Jiaojiao... as soon as they caught Ji You’s gaze, they were ready to bolt—
Ji You took a deep breath: "Dear heroes, please stay your steps!"
No one was listening and they all took several steps forward.
Ji You clenched her teeth and said, "If you leave, you’ll definitely regret it! I guarantee it!"
Yue Qiguang was the first to turn around, giving Ji You a disdainful glance, "Hmph! Dad never learned the word ’regret.’"
Yue Qiyuan didn’t even bother to make up an excuse and simply said, "I’m off, I’m off."
Shen Changqing was silent, but the rejection in his eyes couldn’t be clearer.
Chu Jiaojiao chuckled and said, "Ji You, it’s not that I don’t want to help you clean the rabbit shed, but as a rough and unrefined person like me, I can’t handle such delicate work."
Sheng Qingyan yawned and said, "I’m going to Green Glaze Master’s shop to apply for a salesperson position, I have no time to waste here with you guys."
Listening to her plastic friends, one after another, Ji You’s lips curled into a mysterious smile and said, "Don’t you want to know why the Rag Queen’s spiritual power is so strong?"
At this statement, their hurried steps abruptly halted.
Yue Qiguang was the first to turn back, somewhat awkwardly saying, "Dad wants to make it clear that dad isn’t regretting anything, just curious about the reason, that’s all."
Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao all turned back in unison—
Yue Qiyuan: "I’m off, I’m off, going to clean the rabbit shed."
Shen Changqing glanced at Ji You, his pitch-black eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge...
Chu Jiaojiao flashed a grin and said, "Ji You, you look so serious, I will definitely join you in cleaning the rabbit shed."
Only Sheng Qingyan, not really interested, turned to leave but was grabbed by Chu Jiaojiao next to her and didn’t get away—
Plastic.
All just plastic camaraderie.
But—
Forget it.
Ji You pressed her lips together and said, "You all can be heartless, but I can’t be ungrateful; it’s not in my nature. As a future ruler destined to stand at the World’s Peak, I never beat around the bush, so I’ll just straight up tell you guys."
The first few phrases were as if Ji You was just farting around, but after she finished the last sentence, everyone made a show of listening attentively.
Ji You kept a straight face and said, "Because—my Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate is very high. Speaking of Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate, I dare say everyone here is simply trash."
Everyone: "..."
Chu Jiaojiao laughed and said, "Ji You, stop joking, everyone is listening seriously."
Beside her, the two S-level Spiritual Level Talents, Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan, glanced at each other. Yue Qiyuan said, "I believe you and Shen Changqing does too. What’s your cleaning rate now?"
Ji You chuckled, "100%."
Yue Qiyuan: "..."
Yue Qiguang cursed directly: "Stop boasting! If you’ve achieved 100%, I’ll quit, I’ll be your grandson."
Yue Qiyuan’s face darkened, and he immediately said, "Yue Qiguang, shut up."
[Idiot!
If you want to be someone’s grandson, don’t drag me into it.
Cough...]
Yue Qiyuan didn’t say this out loud.
Ji You hooked the corner of her lips, just about to say ’My good grandson, call me grandpa and let me hear it.’ Unexpectedly, she got a stern glare from Yue Qiyuan: "Number 4444, you shut up too!"
Ji You: "..."
Ji You thought to herself: Never mind, I won’t take advantage of the situation today.
On this side.
Chu Jiaojiao, with her eyes wide open, stared dumbfounded at Ji You’s face, saying, "Classmate Ji You, I’m not kidding, overusing your thick skin could affect your beauty value. How about I buy you some skincare products? I’ve heard that herbal essences are particularly effective for facial care."
Ji You’s mouth twitched: "I wasn’t boasting, it’s 100%. If it wasn’t 100%, how could I dare to call myself the king standing at the World’s Peak?"
Shen Changqing, who hadn’t been saying much, hesitated for a few seconds before speaking up: "A 100% Cleaning Rate, theoretically speaking, is achievable but extremely difficult. So difficult that, throughout human history until now, there has never been anyone with a 100% Cleaning Rate. Unless it’s innate." At this, Shen Changqing shook his head first, adding: "Impossible. It’s not likely even for the innate."
The human exploration of spiritual power only has a history of a few hundred years, yet there is plenty of evidence proving that when spiritual silk is first formed, it’s a tangled mess, which must be cleaned by acquired means.
...
At this point, Shen Changqing looked at Ji You somewhat doubtfully and asked, "Classmate Ji You, what exactly is your Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate?"
Um~
To tell the truth, Ji You’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Shen Changqing’s words, though she still put up a stubborn front, saying, "Cough cough... I told you, it’s 100%."
Shen Changqing shook his head, clearly disbelieving.
Ji You cleared her throat and said, "Cough cough, alright, I won’t lie to you anymore, it’s 50%."
Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan both widened their eyes in surprise, then thinking about it, they both found it very plausible. Ji You’s Spiritual Level was low, but she had been training with everyone for so long, and every time she achieved surprisingly good results. Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan had both speculated on her Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate.
Now that they had the answer, both had a clear picture in their minds.
Ji You threw out a question, asking, "Right now, the highest should be Classmate Shen Changqing, right? Have you reached 15% or is it 18%?"
Shen Changqing replied, "18%. Almost reaching 19%."
Ji You nodded and said, "What was it before you enrolled?"
Shen Changqing said, "Less than 15%."
Ji You turned to Yue Qi, Chu Jiao, and the others.
Everyone nodded in unison, saying they had indeed seen significant improvement recently.
Ji You blinked and said with a smile, "I believe you’ve all looked for the reasons. First, this term, we have been training hard every day, constantly honing our spiritual power. Second, you’ve all used Soul Devices, haven’t you?"
Everyone nodded.
Shen Changqing said, "The Soul Device I bought from Master Qingyou’s shop had a very obvious effect on me."
Chu Jiaojiao hastily added, "Me too."
Afraid that the topic would steer towards the Soul Devices, Ji You quickly said, "The school’s natural food and the Candy Beans awarded by teacher Mu Jianling... Let’s not talk about these benefits for now. I believe you’ve all used these things since childhood, and the effects have never been as pronounced as they have been during this period, right?"
Everyone nodded once more.
Ji You continued, "Have you also noticed? Our cleanup of the horse stables and rabbit shed has greatly improved the Cleaning Rate of our spiritual silk."
Huh?
Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, Ji You said, "Think carefully about the process of cleaning the stables and the condition of your spiritual power afterward. Was there a noticeable change? And about this issue, I have already consulted Aunt Zhang from the neighboring Agricultural College. Taking care of crops and raising animals can indeed improve spiritual power and Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate."
The crowd pondered.
