All along, Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei have had a good relationship.
Entering Jia Nan Academy this time, Xiao Yu took very good care of Xiao Mei in all aspects.
However.
After returning from the library today, Xiao Mei suddenly seemed like a different person.
This puzzled Xiao Yu greatly.
From her younger brother, she heard that Lin Xiu seemed to have said something to Xiao Mei.
Seeing Xiao Yu's angry appearance, Lin Xiu knew that his words had worked, he felt happy in his heart, but didn't show it on his face, "I don't understand what you're talking about."
"Don't act dumb with me." With the sword hilt against Lin Xiu's chest, Xiao Yu's face was slightly cold, "Do you think I won't act?"
This' crazy woman... 'Lin Xiu suddenly felt that Xiao Yan's evaluation of her was very apt.
Lin Xiu didn't speak immediately, just frowned.
In his heart, Lin Xiu weighed the possible outcomes of him and Xiao Yu fighting.
Xiao Yu is now a 3 Star Dou Practitioner, has been studying at Jia Nan Academy for some time, and her strength is definitely better than the average Dou Practitioner.
He had just been promoted to a Dou Practitioner. If they were to clash right now, he might be at a disadvantage. Just relying on a Mountain Breaker might not necessarily gain him an advantage.
However, allowing a woman to bully him like this, was he going to lose face?
Just as Lin Xiu was about to answer, several men and women hurried over.
"Xiao Yu, what's going on?" The man who spoke had a somewhat nervous expression, his gaze shifting between Xiao Yu and Lin Xiu, trying to detect any clues.
In the Academy, Xiao Yu's looks were not the best, but her long and straight legs were very much coveted by men.
Many people have pursued her, but none have succeeded.
"It's just a minor disagreement." Xiao Yu gave Lin Xiu a warning glare, telling him not to speak out of turn.
However.
This only made the male student who spoke up even more nervous, his gaze toward Lin Xiu as if facing a formidable enemy.
"It's not something important. Let's not waste time on it. Our mission objective won't wait around for long." A female student furrowed her brows.
These few people belonged to the same team as Xiao Yu.
At Jia Nan Academy, there were many such teams; students wouldn't stay in the Academy all the time, they also needed to go out for training.
Xiao Yu and her companions received a mission. On the way out, seeing Lin Xiu, she remembered Xiao Mei's abnormality today, which made her unable to resist running over.
"You're lucky today. I'll teach you a lesson when I come back!" When her companions had gone far enough, Xiao Yu gave Lin Xiu a threatening look, then caught up with them.
Standing in place, Lin Xiu took a deep breath. Women like Xiao Yu, unless given a lesson, wouldn't understand what it means to respect others.
"You'll teach me a lesson when you come back? Then I'll have to prepare a surprise for you." Lin Xiu smirked coldly.
Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, and even Xiao Xun'er, those people related to Xiao Yan, entangling with them, Lin Xiu didn't know how much trouble it would cause.
Just from the first male student who spoke up earlier, Lin Xiu sensed a hint of hostility from him.
Lin Xiu just wanted to quietly make some preparations, not wanting to stir up trouble. He made up his mind to give Xiao Yu a good lesson, preferably making her never dare to appear in front of him again.
On the way back to the dormitory.
Perhaps with the help of the library, as soon as Lin Xiu returned to the dormitory, someone had already prepared dinner in advance, with both meat and vegetables, clearly showing thoughtfulness.
It saved him the trouble of going out to eat, and Lin Xiu didn't hesitate to accept.
"Have you both cultivated the Qi Method?" Lin Xiu spoke while eating, his gaze shifting towards Xiao Ning, and another slender boy.
In the dormitory, these two were closer to becoming Dou Practitioners, while others still needed some time to cultivate before possibly condensing the Dou Disciple whirl.
For someone like Lin Xiu, who could condense the Dou Disciple whirl in one go, unless paired with the Qi-Gathering Pill, there would still be a chance of failure.
And once failed, the Dou Disciple level would regress, requiring time to cultivate again.
But the Qi-Gathering Pill is a very expensive Pill, and ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to obtain it.
"I've made a breakthrough. Lin Xiu, want to practice tonight?" Xiao Ning seemed somewhat excited, as if waiting for Lin Xiu to speak.
Confident again?
Burying his head in his bowl, Lin Xiu's chopsticks paused slightly upon hearing the voice, but he didn't lift his head. "Sure."
The other boy answered honestly, "Thanks, Brother Xiu, I've also made a breakthrough."
"Good job" After finishing the meal, Lin Xiu wiped his mouth, "By the way, the fatty meat is delicious, but it can be a bit greasy if you eat too much."
"Brother Xiu, tomorrow I'll take more lean meat." The boy who just answered said.
Xiao Ning, sitting on the opposite bed, flashed a hint of envy in his eyes. He was the leader of the dormitory and had never enjoyed such treatment.
'Seizing the successful breakthrough today, tonight I must reclaim my dignity as the leader!'
Xiao Ning secretly swore in his heart.
...
In the square.
"Brother Xiu! Brother Xiu! I was wrong, I was really wrong!"
Lying on the ground, Xiao Ning saw Lin Xiu's fist coming towards his face and quickly shouted out loud.
Even if it hits the body, bruises will appear. If it hits the face, he won't be able to show his face for a week.
"What did you call me?" Lin Xiu's fist slightly lowered, revealing Xiao Ning's eyes.
"Brother Xiu, you are my elder brother." Xiao Ning's eyes were full of pleading.
He had thought that by breaking through to become a Dou Practitioner, he would have the chance to teach Lin Xiu a lesson, but he didn't expect Lin Xiu to have also made a breakthrough.
Xiao Ning couldn't accept it. He came from the Xiao family, with his sister taking care of him. Why is Lin Xiu so formidable?
"Get up, the ground is cold." With a satisfied smile, Lin Xiu loosened his fist and helped Xiao Ning up.
[You engage in a battle, Mountain Breaker experience +15]
[Your Ability Mountain Breaker has leveled up to lv5, gaining 1 Attribute Point]
[You engage in a battle...]
[You engage in a battle...]
[You engage in a battle, Wind Thunder Technique experience +15]
[You engage in a battle, Realm experience +0.1]
Glancing at the notifications, Lin Xiu's lips curled slightly, revealing a happy smile.
After sparring with Xiao Ning for a few rounds, his levels in Mountain Breaker, Shadow Step increased, gaining two Attribute Points, and his Qi Strength level was about to break through.
In addition, the Wind Thunder Technique experience is also close to full. Today, it can break through to level 2, and also grant him attribute points.
Compared to cultivation, the Realm experience gained in battles is only one-tenth, but it triggers very frequently. It only takes one-third of the time for cultivation to gain 1 point of experience.
However, this isn't without limits. After Lin Xiu's Dou Qi is depleted, he can't increase it anymore.
"Brother Xiu, I know I was wrong, can you let go now?" Held by the same gender, with an excited expression still on the other's face, Xiao Ning felt a bit uneasy.
'We all live in the same dormitory; he wouldn't crawl into my bed at midnight, right?'
These days, Xiao Ning had seen how indifferent Lin Xiu was to Xiao Mei. His own younger sister wasn't bad looking either, but Lin Xiu showed no interest in her at all. On the contrary, he seemed somewhat repelled.
"You're not wrong. I quite like your unruly attitude." Lin Xiu released his hand, patting Xiao Ning on the shoulder. A treasure trove of experience like him isn't easy to come by.
Finding that there was still some Dou Qi left in his body, Lin Xiu approached another roommate who had also broken through to become a Dou Practitioner, and the two continued to spar.
When the Dou Qi was depleted, Lin Xiu practiced recovery in place.
He had also tried with other roommates and found that facing those whose strength was inferior to his own yielded very little experience.
Practicing until late into the night, with almost no one left in the square, Lin Xiu then returned with the other person.
