Take You on as My Underling
Now that someone who fits the criteria for the Book-holding woman" has appeared, Ma Feifei certainly won't miss the opportunity. After all, the "Book-holding woman" quest has been going on for quite some time, and it would be best to complete it as soon as possible.
"I know her. She's very famous in Wu'an City. She's known as the most outstanding student at the Wu'an Academy and has consistently ranked first on the Heavenly Ranking." Lian Yi replied, but then her brows furrowed again.
"What's wrong?" Ma Feifei asked.
"I've only heard that Mu Qingyi has been in seclusion for more than half a year. I don't know if she's come out of seclusion yet." Lian Yi was quite familiar with Mu Qingyi, and even knew about her seclusion.
Ma Feifei shook her head and said, "It's alright, these things aren't important. Just take me to the place where she used to study."
Since the system has indicated that there is someone in the academy who fits the description of the Book-holding woman, it proves that Mu Qingyi must be at the Wu'an Academy, and her seclusion should be over.
Seeing Ma Feifei say this, Lian Yi could only nod in agreement and lead the group forward.
After a quarter of an hour, houses, students, pavilions, bridges, streams, shady courtyards, and cobblestone paths gradually appeared before our eyes.
The scenery is absolutely beautiful.
More and more students arrived, passing by Ma Feifei and his friends in small groups. Because of the three beautiful girls among them, they attracted a lot of attention.
However, gradually, some people began to focus their attention on Lian Yi, and they would whisper among themselves from time to time, as if they were talking about Lian Yi.
"Is that Senior Sister Lian Yi?" asked a student wearing a blue academic robe with three blooming flowers embroidered on the sleeves, signifying that she had been a student at the Wu'an Academy for three years.
"Senior Sister Lian Yi? Which Senior Sister Lian Yi?" a second-year student asked curiously.
"It's normal that you didn't know since you enrolled late. He's a legendary figure in our academy," a third-year student sighed, then watched as Lian Yi and her group walked past him.
Countless similar incidents occurred along the way. The further they went, the more people Ma Feifei noticed watching them, or more precisely, the more people watching Lian Yi.
This made Ma Feifei increasingly interested in Lian Yi, wanting to know why this student, who had only stayed at the Wu'an Academy for less than half a year, had left such a deep impression on the students of the Wu'an Academy.
However, this was not the time to gossip, so Ma Feifei could only keep his curiosity to himself and continue walking forward with Lian Yi.
Wu'an Academy is truly vast. Because flying is prohibited within the academy, they could only walk. Although walking sped up their pace, it still took quite a while. Finally, they arrived at a plaza where a group of students dressed in blue academic robes with four blooming flowers embroidered on their sleeves were sitting on the ground. In front of them was a white-robed instructor explaining the techniques for controlling Spiritual Power.
"As we all know, Spiritual Power is the source of our cultivation. We absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy and convert it into Spiritual Power to enhance our cultivation and combat abilities. But how do we defeat our opponents when we are at the same level? This involves our level of control over Spiritual Power."
The instructor was speaking eloquently, and the students were listening intently. Ma Feifei and his group didn't want to interrupt them, so they could only watch silently from a distance.
However, Ma Feifei found it somewhat interesting, because he was a complete novice in this area and knew nothing about it. If he could learn how to use Spiritual Power, his combat ability would definitely improve significantly.
Thinking of this, Ma Feifei sneaked over and hid among the students in the last row, trying to learn from them...
Seeing this, the others all eagerly joined in.
The instructor seemed oblivious to Ma Feifei and the others, continuing to lecture on his professional knowledge.
Whether it was intentional or not, Ma Feifei happened to squeeze next to a female student. She was sitting cross-legged on the ground in a blue robe, with her hair in a bun and a red hairpin inserted horizontally. Her eyes were fixed straight ahead, and her fair face was expressionless.
However, neither Ma Feifei nor the other party reacted. Ma Feifei merely glanced at the other party before turning her gaze to the instructor, as listening to the lecture was more important.
"In our Chu Kingdom, the person who has mastered the use of Spiritual Power the most is none other than the former Saint Chu Feng Yiming. In his hands, Spiritual Power is never wasted. So today we will talk about the methods of Spiritual Power used by Saint Chu Feng Yiming." As the instructor said this, he stretched out his palm and faced upwards, and an oval-shaped ball of gas appeared in his palm.
The gas was perfect; not a trace of Spiritual Power leaked out. All the Spiritual Power was perfectly gathered into wisps of fine threads that swirled around.
"Wow!"
The students below looked on in amazement, clearly stunned by the instructor's move.
Everyone possesses Spiritual Power, but no one can completely prevent it from leaking out, and no one can control it as perfectly as he does.
Don't underestimate this control ability. If the cultivation levels of both sides are similar, then the Spiritual Power within their bodies will also be almost the same, and once a fight breaks out, it will be a war of attrition.
In a war of attrition, what is most important? The answer is definitely the Spiritual Power within the body. If one side has a higher degree of control over their Spiritual Power than the other, it doesn't guarantee victory, but it certainly increases their chances of winning.
Therefore, the degree of control over Spiritual Power naturally becomes an essential lesson for cultivators.
Ma Feifei was genuinely interested in this, so he listened very attentively. However, as he listened, the aroma of meat suddenly wafted to his nose. Ma Feifei sniffed and turned his head to look.
The woman next to him remained expressionless, her hands resting naturally on her lap, just like a diligent student listening attentively.
However, Ma Feifei was somewhat speechless and whispered a reminder, "Miss, there's still oil on your lips."
Upon hearing this, the woman next to her panicked, sticking her tongue out of her mouth and licking it around the corner of her lips in a 360-degree arc before retracting it.
"Is there anything else?" a pleasant voice asked.
Ma Feifei shook her head and said, "No, that's all."
"Thanks for the reminder, young man. Here, have some!" As soon as the voice finished speaking, a hand holding a chicken leg appeared in front of Ma Feifei.
That's not the key point; the most crucial thing is that it's been bitten in the middle.
That's what she just ate.
The aroma of meat is starting to waft through the air again...
However, apart from Yun Qingyang and the others, no one turned around following the scent. The instructor continued talking as if everyone had lost their sense of smell.
"What? You don't like it?" The pleasant voice came again when Ma Feifei hesitated to take the chicken leg.
"I love chicken legs, but I'm not hungry right now, thank you, miss." Ma Feifei kindly declined and continued listening to the lecture. He needed to study hard; girls could stay out of his way!
"If you don't eat, you're disrespecting me Mu Qingyi. If you do eat, I'll take you under my wing, and you'll call me Big Brother!" (8)
