Chapter 61: The Gluttonous Attribute is Maxed Out! Tianming Brother, I Want More!
"Is it finally over? That was such an amazing battle. Ye Qingxue, with her F-rank ability, managed to hold her own against Lin Tianming, who has an SSS-rank ability, and only lost in the end. That's nothing to be ashamed of!"
"Indeed, Lin Tianming truly deserves to be the top freshman of our Imperial Capital Great Academy. His God's Hand is incredibly powerful!"
"Those lightning skills he used were also copied with God's Hand, right? This ability is too monstrous! It can replicate any skill and use it indefinitely. Who can defeat him?"
As the battle ended, Ye Qingxue's classmates did not mock her for her defeat. On the contrary, they felt that losing to Lin Tianming was nothing to be ashamed of.
However, they did not know that Ye Qingxue also had an SSS-rank ice ability, not an F-rank one. The F-rank she showed during the awakening ceremony was due to a soul injury she suffered long ago while saving someone, which resulted in a car accident.
Once her soul is repaired, she will regain her true SSS-rank ability.
Lin Tianming's God's Hand replication ability is not as limitless as they think. It has cooldowns and usage limitations.
Although the restrictions will lessen as his level increases, he still has a long way to go before he can truly replicate and use abilities indefinitely.
Lin Tianming naturally wouldn't reveal the weaknesses of his lower-level God's Hand to others.
If not for Teacher Jiang Han, who had experience developing abilities in a previous life, knowing his weakness, Lin Tianming wouldn't want her to know either.
But since Teacher Jiang Han knew, Lin Tianming trusted her principles and believed she wouldn't tell anyone.
Moreover, his exploration of God's Hand replication and potential development, as well as the path of spiritual ascension, relied heavily on this teacher who was imparting all her knowledge to him.
With her help, he would grow even faster, avoiding many detours.
After Lin Tianming and Ye Qingxue's sparring match, Ye Qingxue's female teacher immediately came up to check her physical condition.
After confirming that Ye Qingxue was only exhausted and not injured, the teacher finally sighed in relief.
Next, Jiang Han and Ye Qingxue's teacher exchanged some discussions on ability courses and spoke to the students attending today's class before announcing the end of the class.
Today's class was only about the practical sparring with Ye Qingxue. After class, Lin Tianming was free to walk and chat with Ye Qingxue in the campus, feeling quite happy.
Walking on the campus streets of the Imperial Capital Great Academy, Lin Tianming noticed there were far more people today than in previous days.
He casually asked, "Qingxue, are there more people on campus today?"
Ye Qingxue responded, "Of course, today is the official start of the semester for second, third, and fourth-year students. Naturally, there are more people!"
"All the students of the Imperial Capital Great Academy are back today?"
Seeing Lin Tianming still surprised, Ye Qingxue glanced at him curiously, "Yeah, Tianming Brother, you didn't know?"
Talking about this made Lin Tianming a bit embarrassed, "Yes, I didn't know."
Ye Qingxue blinked her beautiful eyes, "Tianming Brother, you should pay more attention to campus news. But it's okay, if you don't follow the news, Qingxue will act as your little news assistant to ensure you don't miss any important events. I'll keep you informed!"
"Qingxue, that would be very helpful."
"It's no trouble, who asked Qingxue to be Tianming Brother's considerate little girlfriend!"
[Being Tianming Brother's considerate news assistant, he will definitely like me more!]
[Hmph, Feng Lan, you little fox, don't think you can steal my Tianming Brother!]
Hearing Ye Qingxue's jealous thoughts, which even took a jab at Feng Lan, Lin Tianming felt a bit helpless about her behavior.
But he did not point out her little thoughts and continued to accompany her around the campus.
"Tianming Brother, since today's class ended early, how about we go out and play?"
At this moment, Ye Qingxue suggested going out to play. Lin Tianming thought for a moment and felt it was not very appropriate.
"You're exhausted now. Are you sure you don't want to rest first and go out later in the evening?"
"No way! It's just that I'm out of energy and can't use my abilities. It's not like I'm badly injured. Let's go out now! There's a snack street at the west gate. We can go there and have some food!"
Ye Qingxue didn't want to miss this chance to date Lin Tianming. She clung to his arm, looking at him expectantly.
The snack street at the west gate?
He had been there a few days ago with Chu Yunfei and even ran into Alice there.
It wasn't far from the Imperial Capital Great Academy, and eating something could help Ye Qingxue recover faster.
After a moment of thought, Lin Tianming agreed, "Alright, but after eating, we need to come back. Your exhausted body shouldn't walk too long. Resting early will help you attend your teacher's class better tomorrow."
"Okay, Tianming Brother, we'll come back by noon!"
Finally convincing Lin Tianming to take her out, Ye Qingxue was overjoyed and dragged Lin Tianming towards the west gate, looking nothing like someone who was exhausted.
Seeing her lively demeanor, Lin Tianming worried she might collapse from overexertion.
He followed closely, ready to help if needed.
After a nerve-wracking walk, Lin Tianming and Ye Qingxue arrived at the snack street a few streets away from the west gate.
"So much delicious food, it smells so good! Tianming Brother, I want ten skewers of grilled gluten! No, wait... let's start with ten squid tentacles. No, no, no... ten lamb skewers, or maybe..."
Faced with the variety of food, Ye Qingxue turned into a little foodie and couldn't decide what to eat.
Seeing her indecision, Lin Tianming made the decision for her.
"Boss, give us ten skewers of squid tentacles, ten lamb skewers, ten grilled gluten, and ten pork skewers!"
The boss was delighted with Lin Tianming's large order.
"Got it, young man! Please wait a moment, it'll be ready soon!"
After waiting patiently, Lin Tianming and Ye Qingxue received their grilled gluten, squid tentacles, pork skewers, and lamb skewers all packed up.
Lin Tianming handed the bag to Ye Qingxue, "Eat whatever you want."
"Thank you, Tianming Brother. Let's eat together. Here, this is yours. I'll get you more after we finish these!"
[Tianming Brother is so good to me!]
Walking along the snack street, with a bag full of skewers in her hand, Ye Qingxue was continuously tempted by the surrounding food.
"Tianming Brother, it's bullfrog. Let's get two servings of bullfrog!"
"That shop sells clams. I want both the honey and garlic ones!"
"There's duck blood vermicelli soup there, let's try that too!"
"It's vegetable pancakes! I didn't expect to find them here in the capital. I prefer vegetable pancakes over mixed grain pancakes. It's been so long since I had them!"
"Here, here... and over there... I want this too!"
Listening to Ye Qingxue's gluttonous remarks without any self-control, Lin Tianming felt overwhelmed.
He held her back and reminded her, "Qingxue, I think you should finish what you have first. Don't buy too much or it'll go to waste if you can't eat it all."
