"Drat! So close to making it!"
Wu Gang, with a grave expression, patted the bed.
After a night of relentless effort, though somewhat hastily, he had completed over thirty Heavenly Circuits, and he was just shy of stepping into the Innate Realm.
"If only I had spirit stones, I could definitely have reached the Innate Realm. It's really frustrating!"
Wu Gang was now quite vexed and, after heaving a few sighs, prepared to go out.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Young Master, are you awake? The Miss has asked me to deliver a towel and such."
After Wu Gang got up and opened the door, he saw a girl with a washbasin and a towel waiting at the door.
"Young Master, after you've washed up, the Miss asked me to take you to the main hall—she's waiting for you there."
The girl handed the items to Wu Gang and then waited at the door.
"Mhm, I got it!"
Wu Gang nodded and took the items, then went back into his room to wash up.
