Is this guy... out of his mind? He actually burnt something as rare as the Star Miscanthus!

Tang Xue Rou and the others had a huge change in their expressions.

"Senior, don't!" Tang Xue Rou screamed out in shock. How could he bear to burn such a precious and rare plant. It was akin to wasting natural resources!

Not only was the Star Miscanthus a crucial medicinal grass used for the second stage of the Contest Area, it was also extremely scarce in all of the Five Nations. Although only the people of Sky Incense Valley knew how to refine it, its worth was infinitely undeniable everywhere.

It was rumored that a single Star Miscanthus could fetch at least 500,000 Spirit Stones in black market auctions!

Instead, Xu Que had set the Star Miscanthus ablaze with a bunch of flames in his hand.

"Chi!" In a flash, strands of sparks started to splash outwards. Akin to countless tiny and resplendent bits of starlight, the sparks emerged from his hand. Then, the sparks spilt upwards, similar to a fountain!

Tang Xue Rou and the others were dumbfounded. Firstly, at the fact that Xu Que had burnt the Star Miscanthus. Secondly, at the scene of the Star Miscanthus burning up and emitting starlight. It was indeed beautiful!

"Damn, isn't this similar to fireworks which the kids used to play with during the New Year?"

Xu Que looked upon the light emerging from his hands and became joyful. There are indeed so many types of magical medicine grasses in this World of Cultivators. Also, this light seemed more beautiful than the "fireworks" they have on Earth. Looked pretty fun...

He waved his hand and a golden colored "fireworks" formed a line in mid-air. It remained there for a good while before gradually dissipating and landing on the ground. It then left a faint lasting glow, which left Tang Xue Rou and the others in awe!

After a while, the golden light finally disappeared in its entirety.

And so, in the hands of Xu Que, the precious Star Miscanthus had dissolved into ashes and drifted away with the wind!

"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 40 act tough points!" The system beep sounded in Xu Que's head.

"Wait!" Xu Que suddenly came into realization and became excited shortly after, "I, the Act Tough King, seem to... have found out a better, new and refined way to act tough!"

"Ha ha ha! I've struck it rich this time!" Xu Que laughed out loudly. Without even saying his goodbyes to Tang Xue Rou and the rest, he quickly left into the distance.

Zhang Su Liang and the others were left with a curious expressions. When Xu Que's figure finally disappeared from their eyes, they looked at one another in dismay and immediately let out an awkward laugh.

That "Senior" is indeed an oddball!

Only Tang Xue Rou's eyes were filled with a tinge of suspicion. This black robed man looked very familiar to her but she could not recall where she had met him before.

...

Moments later, far at the other side of the mountain valley, several Cultivators were overwrought with finding the Star Miscanthus.

"After so long, we still can't find the Star Miscanthus. Could it be that we really have no fate with the Sky Incense Valley?"

"Blame it on our bad luck."

"No. It's mainly due to the fact that the Star Miscanthus was extremely rare. Although this valley is vast, it's impossible that many of them exist here. I reckon that most of them had been found by the others already."
