Goddess's Breakfast

The first light of dawn peeked through.

It was Shen Xiu's turn to teach again. Whether it was Nie Li, Du Ze, or Lu Piao, they all found Shen Xiu's lessons incredibly boring. She droned on and on every day, clearly just filling a spot. Her lectures were filled with tedious gossip about nobles, offering no real knowledge.

Moreover, whenever Shen Xiu taught, Nie Li, Du Ze, and Lu Piao had to stand at the back.

Class was about to start, and the students were chatting in small groups.

Ye Ziyun didn't keep much distance from the other students in the class and quickly befriended many of the girls. Shen Yue, however, sat arrogantly to the side. Given his status and position, he disdained interacting with his classmates. If Ye Ziyun weren't here, he would never have stayed in this class.

There would be a test in two months. Both he and Ye Ziyun would definitely be admitted to the beginner Demon Spirit Master class.

Shen Yue glanced at Nie Li, who was standing at the back, a sarcastic smile on his face. "To reach Bronze 1-star within two months? If a good-for-nothing like you could do it, then the sun would truly rise from the west!"

Nie Li, Du Ze, and Lu Piao were chatting at the back. Besides them, a few commoner students were also friendly with the trio. Because Nie Li was full of ideas, he often guided their cultivation, subtly becoming the leader of their small group. Even Du Ze, who held considerable prestige among the commoner students, willingly listened to Nie Li.

In just a few short days, Nie Li had already helped them earn over 16,000 Spirit Coins, an amount Du Ze could hardly imagine. Du Ze trusted and admired Nie Li greatly, believing him to be very capable.

"Nie Li, what's our next move?" Du Ze asked. Since Nie Li had said they wouldn't be hunting Horned Sheep anymore, what were they going to do?

"You'll know after school!" Nie Li said with a mysterious smile. He already had a series of plans. The first step was to buy some Soul Crystals to test their talent attributes and start cultivating immediately.

Nie Li also had a bet with Shen Xiu: to reach the Bronze 1-star level within two months!

Aside from his own cultivation, Nie Li's gaze fell into the distance. Ye Ziyun stood out amongst the other girls like a crane among chickens. How could he get closer to Ye Ziyun? And make her fall for him?

Just as Nie Li was lost in thought, Xiao Ninger, sitting in the front row, suddenly stood up and walked towards Nie Li.

Xiao Ninger was the only girl in the class who was as beautiful and outstanding as Ye Ziyun. Every move they made drew the attention of everyone in the class. Ye Ziyun was gentle and serene, never condescending or arrogant, so many commoner or aristocratic girls were willing to befriend her. Xiao Ninger, on the other hand, was cool, aloof, and proud, an ice queen whom strangers found difficult to approach.

If even girls couldn't get close to her, let alone boys.

Could Nie Li have provoked Xiao Ninger?

"Nie Li is doomed!" Watching Xiao Ninger's retreating figure, several aristocratic young masters in the class discussed with smirks. In their opinion, Xiao Ninger approaching Nie Li could only mean trouble. Otherwise, what could an ice queen like Xiao Ninger possibly have to do with a scumbag like Nie Li?

If such a thing were to happen, the sun would truly rise from the west.

Xiao Ninger's cultivation was about to reach the Bronze 1-star Realm. If there was a conflict, Nie Li would be the one getting beaten!

Those aristocratic young masters were waiting to watch the show. Many of them liked Xiao Ninger; after all, she was a super beauty no less than Ye Ziyun!

Xiao Ninger was wearing a checkered lace dress today. Her ink-black hair cascaded down her back, and a pair of beautiful bracelets adorned her fair wrists, making her look exceptionally stunning. Xiao Ninger usually wore tight-fitting jackets for convenience during cultivation, but with her beauty, she managed to make even those tight jackets look unique. Today, however, she seemed to have dressed up meticulously, looking even more beautiful than usual, captivating anyone who glanced at her.

It seemed like the first time she had dressed up so elaborately.

Nie Li, Du Ze, and Lu Piao were still chatting when Xiao Ninger arrived at Nie Li's desk.

Xiao Ninger seemed to possess a unique aura. As she approached, Du Ze and Lu Piao nervously stood up. Xiao Ninger was usually a bit cold and aloof, always indifferent to people, making her unapproachable. They were all worried for Nie Li.

Xiao Ninger looked at Nie Li, who was casually sitting in his chair, his gaze occasionally drifting towards Ye Ziyun in the distance. This made Xiao Ninger feel a bit disheartened. Nie Li's eyes seemed to be only for Ye Ziyun, as if he had never noticed her presence.

Since Nie Li had massaged her last night, Xiao Ninger's body had improved significantly, and she had slept exceptionally soundly. Upon waking up this morning, Xiao Ninger had rushed to the library, trying to find the origin of the Guidance Technique. However, she discovered that the library only had a very brief record of it – a secret technique passed down from the era of the Snowy Wind Empire!

Furthermore, Nie Li's revised Soul Power cultivation method had become incredibly profound. After only half an hour of cultivation this morning, her Spirit Energy had increased by 2 points, which was more effective than cultivating for an entire day!

In Xiao Ninger's heart, Nie Li was mysterious and powerful.

What made Xiao Ninger proud was that she was the only one in the class who knew Nie Li's talent! How ignorant were those who mocked Nie Li in class!

Xiao Ninger stood by Nie Li's desk, quietly watching him chat and laugh with ease.

Several aristocratic young masters were discussing.

"How do you think Xiao Ninger will teach Nie Li a lesson?"

"Nie Li's Spirit Energy is only five. He'll probably be thrown out of the classroom!"

"Haha, Nie Li, that kid doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Not only did he offend Instructor Shen Xiu, but he also provoked Xiao Ninger. He's definitely in for a miserable time!"

Even Du Ze and Lu Piao were nervously watching Xiao Ninger. They couldn't understand why the heavenly proud daughter Xiao Ninger had suddenly walked over. They cursed Nie Li to death in their hearts; Nie Li was always stirring up trouble! If Xiao Ninger was going to beat Nie Li, they would definitely help, but even the three of them combined couldn't defeat Xiao Ninger, whose Spirit Energy reached 78!

Xiao Ninger was about to reach the Bronze 1-star Realm and become a true Demon Spirit Master!

At this moment, both Ye Ziyun and Shen Yue, among others, turned their gazes towards them.

Ye Ziyun was also a bit puzzled, not knowing what Nie Li had done to provoke Xiao Ninger. Could Nie Li have flirted with Xiao Ninger? A rake like Nie Li really deserved to be taught a lesson!

Everyone's gaze was filled with confusion.

Seeing Xiao Ninger standing so gracefully by his desk, Nie Li couldn't help but feel a bit surprised. He looked up and asked, "Is there something you need?" In this setting, Nie Li didn't even know how to address Xiao Ninger, and the memory of yesterday still made him feel a bit awkward.

Having truly interacted with Xiao Ninger, Nie Li realized she wasn't as cold and arrogant as she appeared. In fact, Xiao Ninger was a gentle and lovely girl at heart!

Xiao Ninger moved her right hand and took out a paper bag from her Spatial Ring. She said softly, "This is the breakfast I made. I wasn't sure what flavors you liked, so I made a few extra portions." Xiao Ninger gently placed the paper bag on the desk.

What? What was going on?

The entire classroom fell into silence, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Everyone thought they had misheard.

Du Ze and Lu Piao stared with their mouths agape, looking at the scene as if they could stuff an egg into their mouths. They simply couldn't believe their eyes. Xiao Ninger was one of the two goddesses in their class, and likely a top-ten campus beauty even within Sacred Lan Academy. Moreover, Xiao Ninger was usually a bit cold and unapproachable, but today, what were they seeing? Xiao Ninger had actually made breakfast for Nie Li, and not just one portion?

Had the sun risen from the west? Was this real? Everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning.

"I must be sleepwalking. I need to go back and wake up before I say anything else!" a student mumbled.

"Hiss!" Several students thought they were dreaming and pinched themselves. The sharp pain told them they weren't.

"This defies common sense!" Several young masters from prominent families wailed inwardly. They still had no idea what was happening. Xiao Ninger's attire today, and the hint of tenderness she exuded, were unbelievable. They had originally thought Goddess Ninger was going to cause trouble for Nie Li, but they never expected her to be bringing him breakfast!

If Xiao Ninger were bringing them breakfast, they'd happily eat pig slop!

Xiao Ninger rarely even had female friends, and she was too lazy to pay attention to other boys. Yet, she treated this good-for-nothing Nie Li with special consideration, even lowering herself to bring him breakfast. This... this... was just too against common sense! Could it be that Nie Li was being punished by being made to stand because he had talked back to Instructor Shen Xiu? If that were the case, they'd gladly stand for years to talk back to Instructor Shen Xiu!

Xiao Ninger, however, wasn't thinking that much. She just wanted to express her gratitude to Nie Li. She didn't care what others thought of her; she always did as she pleased anyway. Xiao Ninger didn't care about others' opinions. Those people mocked and looked down on Nie Li because they were ignorant. Sooner or later, they would realize they had failed to recognize a gem!

In this world, only she knew Nie Li's talent!

At this moment, even Ye Ziyun and Shen Yue were bewildered and couldn't believe it. This outcome was something they had never anticipated!

"What in the world is going on?" Shen Yue asked with a grim expression. How could a proud daughter of heaven like Xiao Ninger take a liking to trash like Nie Li and actively show him favor?

Ye Ziyun, at this moment, also felt a deep curiosity towards Nie Li. Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ninger had been very close friends in their childhood. Later, as Xiao Ninger's family declined, the two stopped associating due to family reasons. But after that, Ye Ziyun never made another true friend. Thus, Ye Ziyun increasingly missed the days when she played with Xiao Ninger. Upon learning that Xiao Ninger had enrolled in Sacred Lan Academy, Ye Ziyun had her father arrange for her to enter Sacred Lan Academy as well.

Because of Xiao Ninger, Ye Ziyun began to pay attention to Nie Li. What was the reason for Xiao Ninger to actively pursue this boy who had achieved nothing? It was truly baffling. Xiao Ninger's actions indeed carried such an implication.

"May I sit down and eat with you?" Xiao Ninger asked, looking at Nie Li, then at Du Ze and Lu Piao.

Du Ze and Lu Piao's gazes immediately fell upon Nie Li. Although they dared not harbor any thoughts towards Xiao Ninger, having such a beautiful woman like Xiao Ninger sitting beside them was still a pleasant sight.

Nie Li remained silent for a moment, then nodded. "Alright!" For some reason, seeing Xiao Ninger always reminded Nie Li of the intimate scene from last night. Xiao Ninger's boneless figure and fair, smooth skin made him feel a bit awkward.

Xiao Ninger took out the breakfast. It contained various exquisite pastries that made one's appetite soar at the sight. The fresh aroma seemed to drift to every corner of the classroom.

"Du Ze, Lu Piao, you two eat too!" Xiao Ninger said, looking at Du Ze and Lu Piao.

Goddess Ninger actually called their names, which made them feel incredibly honored. The usually aloof Goddess Ninger wasn't as unapproachable as the legends said.

"Then I'll just take advantage of Nie Li's good fortune!" Lu Piao chuckled, picked up a pastry, and began to eat. His mouth bulging, he mumbled, "Delicious!"

Seeing Lu Piao's appearance, Du Ze felt speechless.

Xiao Ninger couldn't help but smile, making her even more radiant and captivating. The classmates in the room stared blankly. They rarely saw Xiao Ninger smile, and the entire world seemed to dim in comparison to her smile.

Nie Li sighed inwardly. He and Ye Ziyun had faced life and death together in his past life and experienced too much. Therefore, Xiao Ninger and he were destined to be just friends.
