Meeting a Beauty Again

Having dinner with two beautiful women made Shi Yan feel incredibly happy.

Just this one meal directly added a card's worth of Blood Essence to him.

Even more outrageous was when he asked which robot was better, the two women gifted him one each!

And they weren't cheap ones either.

One was for household use, and the other was one Shi Yan could use himself, capable of assisting in combat.

Together, they were worth over fifty thousand academic credits, but the women hadn't even blinked when they paid.

He suspected their academic credits were just lying around somewhere.

Soon, the three of them were full and satisfied. Li Yuqing bid farewell, and Shi Yan, along with Zhang Yunya, took the school's magnetic levitation train to the library.

The one thing the school definitely wouldn't shortchange its students on was books.

Therefore, Magic Martial University's library was built to be grand, impressive, and also warm and tranquil.

The library was circular, with only two floors, but it occupied a vast area of two hundred thousand square meters. The lower floor housed books on humanities, geography, history, and literature, while the second floor was dedicated to Martial Arts.

It was already nine in the evening, but the library was still brightly lit and packed with people.

The students admitted to Magic Martial University were all top talents from across the country, knowing what they needed to do, hence the intense competition.

The two didn't linger and went straight to the second floor.

Compared to the first floor, there were fewer people on the second. As they entered the Martial Arts section, the crowd thinned even further.

This was because access required authorization, and the Martial Arts techniques were all sealed behind displays with only brief descriptions. If no one intended to redeem or purchase a technique, they wouldn't come here.

"Beep, S-Class card."

"Beep, A-Class card."

The two tapped their wristbands, scanning their student IDs.

Zhang Yunya's authorization level was S-Class, the highest a student could possess.

Shi Yan's was A-Class, the highest a freshman could obtain. To reach S-Class later, he would need to make significant contributions.

An A-Class authorization allowed one to select one A-Class or lower Martial Art technique. Each subsequent academic year, they would receive one B-Class technique. An S-Class authorization granted one A-Class Martial Art technique each academic year.

These were free; any additional techniques would have to be purchased.

"This year's Martial Art technique, I want to gift it to Shi Yan."

At the front desk, Zhang Yunya tapped her wristband and spoke to a round-faced young woman behind the counter.

The reason she brought Shi Yan here was so he could get an A-Class Martial Art technique.

"S-Senior Sister, are you sure?"

The round-faced girl, a part-time student in her third year, recognized Zhang Yunya and looked a little scared.

Zhang Yunya was simply too wild. Since Magic Martial University was established, the only person who had ever gotten into a fight in the library was Zhang Yunya.

"Senior Sister, is there a lot you haven't told me?"

Shi Yan was speechless. It was understandable for guys to avoid Zhang Yunya, but why were even girls afraid of her?

Zhang Yunya ignored Shi Yan and just stared at the round-faced girl.

"Hurry up, I'm in a rush."

"Okay."

The round-faced girl shivered slightly and then looked at Shi Yan.

"Hello, Senior Brother. Please open your student ID... Oh, sorry, Junior Brother."

Upon seeing Shi Yan's student ID, the girl's face instantly turned red, like an apple.

In just half a minute, after a "beep," two green entries appeared below Shi Yan's electronic student ID.

"You can go in. All Martial Arts techniques have descriptions. Remember to pick a movement technique first; your footwork today was like a pile of dung."

Before leaving, Zhang Yunya earnestly instructed him.

Hearing this, Shi Yan's forehead was covered in black lines.

I had a perfect winning streak today!

"Senior Sister, take care."

If you can't find the book by its title, you can try searching for the author; maybe they just changed the name!

After bidding farewell to Zhang Yunya, Shi Yan turned and walked into the Martial Arts section.

The Martial Arts section was divided into several areas based on rank, category, and so on. He followed the directional arrows and headed straight for the A-Class movement technique area.

A-Class Martial Arts techniques were extremely precious. In this area, it was divided into many cubicles, each about twenty square meters, storing only two techniques.

They were placed on two raised stone pillars, covered by thick glass.

"Eight Trigrams Soaring Dragon Movement Technique, A-Class. Transforms the body into a dragon, stepping on the Eight Trigrams..."

Shi Yan looked inside the glass enclosure. There was a memory crystal propped up by a stand, and in front of the memory crystal was a description of this movement technique.

Unfortunately, the description is very brief and doesn't reveal much information. I only know that practicing this movement technique requires a strong physique and knowledge of the Eight Trigrams.

Shi Yan wasn't very interested and looked at another stone platform in the room.

Turtle Flip Technique, A-Class.

Still not interested.

He had no choice but to go to other cubicles to continue searching.

After looking through about five or six, he finally stopped.

It wasn't that he found a suitable movement technique, but rather that he saw someone unexpected.

A girl with a graceful figure stood beside the stone platform. Her purple dress was like a lavender field in the twilight, shimmering with a luster of mystery and elegance under the lights. The exposed skin emitted a fluorescent glow under the light. The beams of light that traced her fair profile were like divine radiance from an angel, captivating and dazzling.

Qi Ziyue!

Why was she at Magic Martial University?

As if sensing something, the girl withdrew her gaze from the martial arts and turned towards the door.

Upon clearly seeing Shi Yan, a flicker of surprise flashed in her eyes. Then, she rejoiced, followed by a hint of panic.

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

They both spoke at the same time, and then immediately said in unison: "Are you also looking for a movement technique?"

After speaking, they stared at each other, and both fell silent.

A few seconds later, Qi Ziyue spoke first.

"I don't really like the atmosphere at Jingwu, so I ran over here. My College Entrance Examination scores were decent, and Magic Martial University gave me A-Class authorization. I came here wanting to find a relatively light movement technique. I'm done, your turn."

"I was scolded like dog shit, so I came to find a movement technique," Shi Yan said truthfully. "As for coming to Magic Martial University, it's because they offered too much."

"Also, Qi Ziyue, why are your eyes always darting around? Did you do something you regret?"

"I... does running away from home count?"

Qi Ziyue looked up, met Shi Yan's eyes, and then gritted her teeth.

"Also, I don't dare to ask my family for money, so I can't pay back the two hundred million I owe you for now. Can you give me some more time?"

For some reason, she liked talking to Shi Yan. Even though she owed him money, she enjoyed chatting with him. That feeling... it was like Shi Yan treated her as a friend, rather than adding various labels to her before talking.

"Wait a minute, I can understand a young lady from a prominent family like yours running away from home, but when did you owe me two hundred million?"

A gentleman loves wealth and acquires it righteously. Shi Yan really wanted to be rich, but he was a bit baffled by Qi Ziyue's thoughtless offer.

Hearing this, Qi Ziyue frowned and then recounted what happened between the two of them during the Martial Arts Examination.

As Shi Yan listened, his eyes gradually widened. "Qi Ziyue, did your head get slammed in a door or kicked by a donkey when you were little?"

"Shi Yan, are you scolding me?"

"Yeah, you took a casual remark seriously? If I said ten billion or a hundred billion, would you give it to me too?"

"You... you're mean!"

Qi Ziyue was filled with shame and annoyance. She raised her small fist and hit Shi Yan's chest.

It hurt her hand. Finally, she stomped her foot and left the room.

Shi Yan was slightly stunned. He touched his chest, then chased after her.

"Hey, I was just kidding. Let's not think about that. I'll walk around here with you."

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.
