Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 2003

The extreme shock on Emery's face elicited a giggle from Diane and the other girls. Diane, as the eldest among them, stood up and said, "It's all thanks to Severin. We wouldn't have been able to make such quick breakthroughs without his alchemy skills."

Gilda and the others nodded wholeheartedly upon hearing that. Though they had the privilege of residing on Pearl Light Isle, the training resources they received followed the standard given to normal disciples—two sixth-grade low-rank pills each month and a few spiritual stones. Breaking through to the fourth level of Supreme Saint with such limited resources was difficult, if not nearly impossible.

Emery had already predicted yet, and she looked at the girls with envy. Consuming sixth-grade pills like candy was a luxury beyond imagination, and one that would surely leave everyone else outside of Pearl Light Isle in shock. Lucky for Emery, she was able to calm herself down quickly as a result of her experience.

She then observed that Diane and the girls had reached level four supreme saint within half a year. They were brimming with energy, and they had a very solid foundation too. When Emery first joined, she was only able to make a breakthrough to level two supreme saint within half a year. As a result, even she—an apprentice of Daniella—could not help but envy the girls' surging level four supreme saint aura.

After putting away the Crystal Spring Pill Severin handed her, Emery remarked to Diane, "You just joined the sect half a year ago, right?"

"Yes," Diane replied in some confusion.

Emery glanced at Severin with a mix of despair and emotion. "Making a breakthrough to level four supreme saint in just six months is a feat that will have our fellow disciples jealous."
