“Agah!” Upon hearing his mother’s words, Suo Jia couldn’t help but let out a weird exclamation. The reason he did not bring his mother was because he was afraid she would be tired. However, he had not imagined that letting her stay at home would make her feel bored instead!
After a bit of thinking, Suo Jia soon understood. Even though she had a son that was already 8 years old, his mother had given birth to him when she was still very young. Therefore, his mother was currently only 24-25 years old. Since she was still young, being shut at home would definitely make her feel bored.
While thinking, Suo Jia said helplessly, “Fine. If Mother wants to go, then of course I’ll welcome you. Are you finished preparing? Let’s go!”
“Nn… ” Seeing Suo Jia actually agree, the woman immediately nodded her head in excitement without a thread of motherly appearance. In reality, when talking with her 8 year old son, she could have simply commanded him to bring her along with her authority. There was certainly no need to have discussed it.
However, it was exactly because she normally discussed such things with Suo Jia that Suo Jia had developed an independent personality since he was young. It was also the reason why every one of Suo Jia’s opinions and ideas dictated his own will. If it was any other child, if their parents did not approve, would he/she dare to casually test new activation methods? Would any other child use the Exhaustion Training Method at such a young age?
The group of three first headed to the church to pray. After they had arrived once again at the designated spot on the street, they raised the tent. During the past year, Suo Jia had already built up a regular set of customers. There would already be a huge crowd of girls lined up waiting for them when they arrived from praying.
The tent was quickly set up and Suo Jia began to let people enter the tent one by one. His mother stood at the entrance and was in charge of allowing people in while Sixth Sister was responsible for reception. She had somehow managed to produce a ton of leaflets from somewhere and was now distributing them in front of the church on the same street.
When Sixth Sister came back to grab flyers, Suo Jia had quietly asked her. It turned out that… these plans were all organized by Eldest Sister. Since in the future, the location of the business would change to their home, she had naturally wanted to distribute a few leaflets, making sure to bring the regular customers to the new location as well!
Sighing in admiration, Suo Jia shook his head. He casually activated the Moisture Technique and at the same time, he secretly sighed in sorrow. This older sister was really not simple, to have thought of such a method. Perhaps this method was not very brilliant, however Suo Jia had never considered it before.
With the guests entering and exiting one after another, the number of gold coins in Suo Jia’s pocket increased. After activating 100 Moisture Techniques, Suo Jia still did not feel drained at all. This level of method of activation really did greatly conserve his spirit power.
After activating 160 Moisture Techniques in a row, at last Suo Jia felt the strain. Not only was he lightheaded, his whole body felt like it was made of soft cotton. Feeling all this made Suo Jia excited; these were the requirements for using the Exhaustion Training Method!
Although Suo Jia had often ran out of spirit power in the past, this was not the same as practicing the Exhaustion Training Method. Entering the state of the Exhaustion Training Method had a set procedure.
Suo Jia’s previous ‘exhaustion’ hadn’t been real complete exhaustion. Real ‘exhaustion’ meant that there wasn’t a single remaining trace of power; it only counted if it was completely used up. Otherwise, it would be categorized as ‘dried up’ and not ‘exhausted’!
Utilizing the Exhaustion Training Method requires certain steps: first, low ranked magics have to be cast continuously. Once the low rank magics have exhausted the magic power, you have to cast the highest rank magics you know. Although the activation will obviously not succeed, the activation of higher rank magics flushes out all the few remaining streams of magic power and spirit power within the body.
However, there was one important point that had to be addressed; going beyond was just as bad as falling short. For example, the previous evening, although Suo Jia’s magic power had similarly been emptied, there were no benefits to it. Suo Jia not only failed to raise his magic power, he had allowed his magic power to drop. The goal of the Exhaustion Method was to completely drain the body of power until empty, and not go into the negatives. Once it caused harm to the body, it could no longer be called ‘exhausting’, it was essentially organ failure, and caused harmful damage!
After dispersing all the customers, Suo Jia instructed his mother to not let any others inside for the moment. He faced
