Leaning against the wall, senior Zhu Xueming took a break and then got up to say to Qi Yuan: “I’m Zhu Xueming, he’s Li Yang. Our school environment is quite good, apart from the occasional monsters that pop up.”
Li Yang couldn’t help laughing when he heard this and said, “What the hell are you talking about?”
“Isn’t living in a big villa good enough for you? Besides, there are not enough monsters to share.”
Zhu Xueming rolled his eyes.
The entire combat department of the school relied on beating a few monsters to death. Those who arrived late didn’t even get a chance to attack.
Speaking of monsters, Li Yang also recalled, “Last time I ate a little more rice before heading out and the monster’s corpses had already been divided up.”
The monsters at Shen City University were also in dire straits.
Also, monster corpses could make money?
When it came to this, Qi Yuan became interested: “What can monster corpses be used for?”
“It depends, some daily chemical companies collect plant monster pollen and floral scents, cosmetic surgery hospitals collect the skulls of beauty-faced monsters, clothing studios collect insect monster silks, and so on.”
“Speaking of which, don't you want to understand the content of military training?”
Li Yang poked his head in, wanting to say the two words were written on his face.
“......”
Although he didn't have that desire, Qi Yuan still satisfied his need: “You can tell me.”
So perfunctory, Li Yang instantly lost interest and said listlessly: “Nothing serious, the same as other schools.”
What Zhu Xueming said was right, you really are just a dog.
Qi Yuan was speechless. He said everybody would be polite, right?
He asked expressionlessly: “Senior, how about a match?”
I promise to make you lose confidence in taking the final exam.
Li Yang had just finished Zhu Xueming and was at the peak of his self-confidence.
If Qi Yuan were a freshman or sophomore, seeing Qi Yuan's temperament, he wouldn't have agreed to a match, but Qi Yuan was just a student about to enter university. Li Yang was confident he could win.
Facing life and death directly in the Fusion Zone and competing at school were two different things.
Such a genius shouldn’t be violently beaten while he was still young and tender. He wouldn’t have a chance once he grew up.
He looked down on the world arrogantly and said vigorously: “Come on then! If you want a fight, then fight!”
A while later,
Li Yang’s fist slammed into the light wall, the electric current collided with the high temperature light wall, making crackling noises.
Then Li Yang was bounced away again.
“Senior, haven’t you finished your warm-up yet?”
Qi Yuan stood in place, surrounded by a circle of light walls, with several light spheres hovering around him.
“Then I’m going to attack.”
He waved his hand and the light spheres turned into countless small swords aiming at Li Yang.
Li Yang was so shocked that his jaw dropped. Brother, are you serious?
Can anyone see that I was just pretending?
Qi Yuan didn't pay attention to his exaggerated blinking. His expression looked serious.
There had been a polite chance placed in front of you but you didn't cherish it. Now I won't be polite with you either.
“I surrender.”
Li Yang sincerely raised his hands and surrendered. If he didn’t speak up now he was afraid he wouldn’t have a chance.
Since he surrendered, Qi Yuan retracted the light spheres.
If Li Yang wanted to pretend nothing was wrong, Qi Yuan wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
He could only admire that with his mouth burnt to ashes he could still talk.
Zhu Xueming patted Li Yang on the shoulder, seemingly grieved but actually gloating, and said: “Li Yang, you’ve become weak again.”
Li Yang drooped his head dispiritedly and impatiently pushed away his troublesome friend's hand before lying on the floor with vacant eyes.
“I was really stupid, I really was. I only knew that geniuses would become unimaginably perverted. I didn't know they could still be so awesome.”
Seeing that his good friend was truly frustrated, Zhu Xueming gloated while comforting him: “That’s enough. It’s no big deal that I lost either.”
Li Yang suddenly thought of something. He crawled up in a tumble and asked: “Which department and class are you in? I absolutely don’t want to be assigned as your teaching assistant.”
Li Yang shuddered at the thought of others beating new students domineeringly while he was beaten by a new student.
He would definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame for seniors and laughed at.
And with the rising reputation of the genius there was a possibility it could be brought out again in the future to talk about.
“Combat department, I don’t know which class yet.”
The combat department in high school and university were two different concepts. The combat department in high school was similar to the liberal arts and science streams of ordinary people, while the combat department at university was made up of fighting elites selected from all over.
Apart from the combat department, there were also some ability-related majors like the Sealing Department, Battlefield Medical Specialty, Integrated Field Journalism Department, etc.
These professions went in and out of battlefields and required some ability to protect themselves.
Therefore, no matter the major, the curriculum for freshmen focused on the fighting module.
Li Yang’s mind expanded. He was also from the combat department so the probability of being assigned to Qi Yuan’s class was not low.
“What are you thinking about?” Zhu Xueming said, “If his strength isn’t from the combat department wouldn’t we be even more humiliated?”
Li Yang didn’t want to stay in this sad place and took the initiative to offer to give them a tour.
“Come on, I’ll take you around the school.”
“Our school was built so big for another purpose actually. Some espers will come to the school to train and then we have the chance to get guidance from them.”
Next, they took Qi Yuan on a tour of the school, mainly staying at the training area, cafeteria and dormitory.
After understanding the university situation, Qi Yuan added them on a messaging app and went back.
...
The location of the Shen City Advanced Esper Exchange Meeting wasn't far from the hotel they were staying at.
As usual, Qi Yuan went out on a shared bike and then suddenly realized he hadn't prepared a suit.
He deeply reflected. Did the sudden double wealth of strength and money overnight make him float recently, even forgetting basic courtesy?
This was not a good sign. Those whom heaven would destroy, it first makes mad.
He could pretend to be arrogant and confident but he couldn't really be arrogant.
Qi Yuan took out his phone to check the time. Luckily he was used to keeping extra time to prevent delays from sudden situations that would make him late. There was still some time before the exchange meeting. Going to buy a suit at a mall near the meeting venue and then heading over would work.
It was the busiest time of night. The mall was brightly lit and no shortage of whole families coming to shop.
Qi Yuan found the signboard at the foot of the stairs and headed straight for his goal.
Soon he walked out of the mall wearing a black suit, rather uncomfortable adjusting his tie.
He always felt that compared to successful people, he looked more like a salesman.
Not long after leaving the mall, Qi Yuan noticed someone approaching him before feeling a weight on his trouser leg.
A little Lolita clung onto his leg with her hands and feet, looking up at him with tearful eyes.
Qi Yuan grabbed his waistband and said while looking down at her: “Get down.”
The little girl ignored his words and hugged his shin even tighter: “No, a monster uncle is chasing me. Xinxin is very scared.”
“Get down first and I’ll take you to the Patrol Team.”
If she wasn’t a child he would have thrown her off already.
“The monster uncle is here.”
When Xinxin shouted this out, she fearfully buried her head in his trouser leg and still didn’t let go.
Qi Yuan glanced to the side and saw a man in an ill-fitting suit rushing towards them at high speed with a dagger in his hand.
