Bai Qi was content after planning the future direction for his four pets. He left the secret realm and returned to the cafeteria.
The recent battle had consumed a lot of strength from his pets, and they urgently needed to replenish their energy.
“Auntie, I will have the same meal as before,” he ordered.
As he spoke, Bai Qi felt countless gazes gathered on him. When he turned his head, he discovered that the cafeteria was filled with trainee students.
“Bai Qi, you’re back?”
Zhou Yan looked surprised, asking, “Weren’t you with Bai Chuanqi when you left?”
“I returned this morning and wanted to come here to eat.”
“Where is Cha? Didn’t see him around.”
Xiao Yuan walked over to Bai Qi and asked, “Aren’t you two always together?”
“Cha probably went back to rest.”
The two battles fought by the four pets were time-consuming, so Cha must have eaten and left earlier.
“Let’s forget about Cha. You’ve been gone for a week, Bai Qi. Your previous challenge has been invalidated, so accept my duel now.”
Zhou Yan had learned her lesson from last time. The moment she saw Bai Qi, she initiated a score challenge through the badge system.
“Wait. What do you mean by ‘invalid’?”
Bai Qi felt a wave of uneasiness rising in his heart as though he had an idea of what was coming.
“If a challenge recipient purposely evades the fight, they’re deemed to have forfeited. Their corresponding points would be automatically deducted.”
Lu Qing pushed up her glasses and said, “Because of you, the three of us essentially took an extra training course. So, thank you.”
Evade the fight? He was forced to leave!!!
Bai Qi took out his badge. Upon seeing the deducted 1500 points, his heart ached.
These bastards! They maximized their points when issuing challenges!
Looking at an eager Zhou Yan and others, Bai Qi determinedly said, “Come on!
Who’s next? Anyone who wants to challenge me step up!”
“I’ll pass. You guys go ahead.”
Lu Qing took her meal tray from the auntie and walked straight to the side. Xiao Yuan, sensing something, said, “We’re not in a rush. Let Zhou Yan go first.”
“It just so happens that I will take all three rounds against Bai Qi.”
Zhou Yan’s eyes lit up. She directly issued three consecutive challenges to Bai Qi, choosing the highest score of 500 points each time.
“Don’t say that the Big Boss is bullying you. You can choose the fighting method and location.”
“Okay!”
Bai Qi nodded. After seeing Zhou Yan’s fifth rank, a smile appeared on his face.
“Then, I will return the favor with an invitation, challenging you too -”
That afternoon.
The assembly hall.
After tending to the Explosive Thunder Rat and taking a rest, Bai Qiucha arrived early at the assembly hall.
Although his week of outdoor training brought some harvest, he had also missed many classes and needed to make up for them asap.
“Huh? Xiao Yan, why are you so early today? And you’re studying?!”
Walking into the assembly hall, Bai Qiucha was startled to find someone studying there, and it was Zhou Yan, who usually despised theoretical courses the most.
“Don’t disturb me. I’ve even given up on challenges…”
Zhou Yan’s response left Bai Qiucha even more confused. Had Zhou Yan, indeed, changed and started loving to study?
“Stop asking. Someone arrogantly challenged a junior to gain points, only to end up getting farmed instead. She’s now in seclusion. Ignore her.”
Just then, Lu Qing walked in from outside, mercilessly exposing Zhou Yan’s wound. The group behind her, including Xiao Yuan and Li Mu, wore strange looks on their faces, not knowing whether to sympathize or laugh.
“Lu Qing! Can’t you stop exposing people?!”
Hearing Lu Qing’s words, Zhou Yan could no longer hold back. With bared teeth, she was about to rush to silence Lu Qing, but seeing a cheerful Bai Qi entering the hall, she ran back to her book.
Who knew what she had gone through. The Bai Qi who she thought was a pushover defeated her in both individual and team combat. Even his newly signed four pets beat her four pets.
If it were Xiao Yuan or Bai Qiucha, she could accept it, but being defeated by Bai Qi, a junior who was only a Second Stage when he first joined the training, left Zhou Yan somewhat shocked.
Seeing Zhou Yan’s state, Bai Qiucha had a realization and went to Xiao Yuan, asking, “Bro Yuan, could Xiao Yan have…”
Xiao Yuan shrugged, looking at Bai Qi, who was excitedly counting his points, “I now finally understand why Bai Chuanqi took Bai Qi as his disciple. This terrifying growth rate, tsk…”
As a witness to the six fights, he knew clearly that Bai Qi didn’t defeat Zhou Yan through luck but through a comprehensive dominance in combat prowess and tactics.
Not to mention anything else, as a die-hard fan of endurance fights, Xiao Yuan couldn’t claim for sure that he could defeat Bai Qi’s weird slime monster.
Three light skills, when stacked together, were indeed terrifying.
Seeing the display of Xiao Yuan’s abilities, Bai Qiucha did not find it too surprising amidst her astonishment.
She did not wish to comment on Bai Qi’s other pets, but she was certain that no one could match Alpha, who wielded the Sword of Death, within the same stage.
Well… perhaps the Skeleton Dragon with its Spirit Master ability could, but if Bai Qi were to summon his other pets, she wasn’t so sure anymore.
Soon enough, the other trainees arrived at the assembly hall, their gazes upon Bai Qi subtly shifting away.
In the little over a week that Bai Qi was missing, Zhou Yan boosted her own point score to fifth place through the points battle, becoming invincible to challenges from others. Otherwise, it was estimated that Zhou Yan would have wiped out the points of over half the training class.
Yet now, Zhou Yan, a challenge maniac, had been silenced and rendered socially withdrawn by Bai Qi, which was profoundly shocking to the rest of the trainees.
It had been less than two months since Bai Qi rose from the Second Stage to the Four Stage, beating a veteran Four Stage like Zhou Yan on his way. Was this even possible for a human being?
It turned out their headmaster was right to remind them to stay low-key when pursuing their studies. There were too many prodigious students, and anyone who dared to call them geniuses after they returned home would face their wrath!
Compared with Bai Qi, they were merely worth as much as junk when they boasted to be geniuses.
With this thought, every trainee took a seat and began to revise their previous work.
Walking into the room from outside, Luo Xiang watched the zealous students with a start. But when he saw Ba Qi among them, he understood.
“You guys arrived pretty early today, so let’s get started early.”
For once, Luo Xiang didn’t tease or create any mischief. He even delivered a slew of dry goods, and the students were more than happy to concentrate on their studies.
They had given up trying to deal with Bai Qi directly, and now they hoped to outpace him in other aspects.
The half-day passed quickly, and amid the students’ lingering gazes, Luo Xiang ended today’s class.
“That’s all for today. We will remember to digest everything at home.”
Knowing that he had assigned a lot of work today, Luo Xiang kindly reminded them, then turned to Bai Qi and said, “Bai Qi, come with me. The headmaster wants to see you.”
“Okay.”
Bai Qi nodded, figuring that the headmaster wanted to discuss the Spirit- Control Orb and the White Meeh.
Wondering what kind of compensation he would receive?
Bai Qi followed Luo Xiang to the Tower of Decision. Unlike the organized setting of the Holy Relic Tower or the bloodless competition in the Tower of Competition, the Tower of Decision appeared deserted. As Bai Qi ascended, he hardly encountered anyone.
“Here we are.”
Before long, Luo Xiang led Bai Qi to a spacious hall where the White Meeh stood tall in the center.
“Here you are.”
Upon seeing the two of them, Zhao Futu, who was closely examining the White Meeh, turned around. Looking at Bai Qi, he chuckled, “You really don’t fit in with the traditional way of studying. You’ve only been out twice, but each time you manage to stir things up.”
“Cough, cough, well, it was just a coincidence.”
With an embarrassed grin, Bai Qi knew he couldn’t allow his leader to think him a troublemaker. That would lead to rocky days ahead.
“Yes, indeed. So Headmaster, after Bai Qi completes his training, why don’t you hand him directly to me? I promise not to delay his progress.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiang immediately sidled up to Zhao Futu and said this seriously.
“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Bai Qi is still a student and should focus on his studies. You can stop trying to find a way to slack off.”
With a light smile, Zhao Futu ignored Luo Xiang’s request. Approaching Bai Qi, he said, “Heguang told me just now, this White Meeh is what you chose, right?”
“You made a good choice. Compared to offensive mechs, helper ones like the White Meeh have more research value.”
Bai Qi nodded. He chose the White Meeh for the same reason.
“I’ve notified the Tower of Knowledge. They will send someone to research it soon. You should go with them, Bai Qi. After all, you found it, so you should participate.”
“I’ll tell Lan Ke that the resources of the Tower of Knowledge will be temporarily open to you to help your research.”
“Okay, President.”
With a gleeful agreement, Bai Qi’s worries about whether his authority could access the Demon Class’s information were resolved before he knew it.
“Oh yes, President, this White Meeh…”
Bai Qi hadn’t forgotten the main point. He gestured toward the White Meeh, rubbing his fingers unconsciously.
Seeing this, Zhao Futu couldn’t help but laugh aloud. “You’re not at all like Heguang’s apprentice. Don’t worry, you won’t be short-changed. After all, the White Meeh is already a legendary weapon.”
“Go to the Holy Relic Tower and find Xiang Li for a self-chosen mythical resource.”
“Thankyou, President!”
Upon hearing that Zhao Futu was granting him a mythical resource, Bai Qi immediately broke into a wide grin, thanking him profusely.
“Oh yes, you’re not going to the outside for the moment. Try to tame the Legendary Giant Dragon as soon as possible. A legendary creature without an owner is prone to causing trouble.”
Patting Bai Qi’s shoulder, Zhao Futu said, “Take a couple of days off class and help me tame this dragon as soon as possible.”
Gazing at the smiling Zhao Futu, Bai Qi instinctively retracted his neck but obediently nodded, “Alright, I’ll find it right away.”
Hailed as one who took others’ short hands and softly fed on their mouth, he had just taken a favor and couldn’t afford to coast along.
