Getting Beaten Up

On the other side, after leaving the conference room, Xiao Yu returned to the small attic.

Upon entering, Xun'er saw Xun'er and the others still sitting in the living room waiting for him to return. Seeing Xiao Yu, Ruolin hurriedly asked, "What does the Dean want with you?"

Seeing that they were all looking at him with questioning eyes, Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "It's nothing serious, just about the elemental power within me."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on. Xun'er frowned slightly and said, "Now that you mention it, I seem to remember too. Brother Xiao Yu, wasn't your body originally filled with Fire Attribute energy?"

Xiao Yu chimed in, "That's right. The Dou Technique you used today was not only incredibly powerful, but it also seems to be powered by Wind Attribute energy, right?"

Xiao Yu said somewhat helplessly, "Actually, I don't know what's going on either, but I do currently possess two types of Dou Qi within my body, which is why my cultivation speed is so fast!"

After hearing Xiao Yu's explanation, although everyone was still puzzled, they ultimately didn't ask any further questions. Ruolin stood up and looked at Xiao Yu and the others, saying, "Tomorrow, the top fifty students who can enter the Inner Academy should be determined. You all should rest well and strive for a good ranking tomorrow. Most importantly, the top five can enter the Library Pavilion!"

Everyone nodded, and then Xiao Yu returned to his room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Cai Lin lying half-reclined on his bed, her alluring body looking extremely hot.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Yu quickly closed the door and asked with some surprise, "What are you doing in my room?"

Cai Lin slightly opened her eyes, her beautiful, half-closed gaze fixed on Xiao Yu, and said somewhat lazily, "The time I agreed to meet that stupid snake is almost here."

Xiao Yu's face lit up with joy, and he quickly asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

A dangerous glint flashed in Cai Lin's eyes as she said calmly, "You seem quite happy?"

Xiao Yu paused for a moment, then said, "No, I just wanted to ask you, how much longer until your agreed-upon time with Little Cai?"

Cai Lin got out of bed and went to the window, saying softly, "There are still five or six days left, right? What, do you want me to stay a little longer?"

"Ah? No, uh, it's not that. How should I put it? I still rely on Her Majesty the Queen quite a bit. If you want to stay a little longer, I can accept that!" Xiao Yu said with a rather troubled expression.

Cai Lin glanced at Xiao Yu with icy eyes and said, "Since you came to the Jia Nan Academy, it seems you haven't thought about helping me find the ingredients for the Spirit Fusion Pill!"

Xiao Yu simply chuckled and said, "The herbs needed for the Spirit Fusion Pill are very precious, okay? Don't worry, I've always remembered about the Spirit Fusion Pill. When I went to the Inner Academy this time, there was a forest in the Inner Academy mountains there. I think you can find the herbs you want there!"

Cai Lin looked at Xiao Yu and said, "I hope you keep your word. There are conditions to me staying by your side."

Xiao Yu shrugged and said helplessly, "What, if it weren't for the Spirit Fusion Pill, you'd turn your back on me? Don't forget, I helped you a lot when you were evolving."

It would have been better if this hadn't been brought up, because when it was, Cai Lin suddenly remembered how this bastard had seen her entire body during her evolution. A blush suddenly rose on her beautiful cheeks; the Queen was actually shy.

Xiao Yu looked at Cai Lin with some surprise. He had never seen her so shy before. Although he didn't know why, Xiao Yu's Cai Lin gaze and tentatively said, "Actually, besides the Spirit Fusion Pill Cai Lin, I have another way to help you get out of your current predicament."

Cai Lin frowned slightly and asked, "What method?"

Xiao Yu chuckled, his once handsome face now appearing rather lewd. Xiao Yu said, "Exactly, hehe, why don't you just have a child and give the Sky Swallowing Python's soul to the child?"

When Cai Lin heard this, she didn't get angry. Instead, her long, narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and a slight smile appeared on her lips as she said, "Oh? Is that really okay? Who can I ask for help?"

Xiao Yu didn't sense any danger. Looking at Cai Lin's smiling face, he chuckled and said, "Well, you can go find someone you like. There are so many Snake People Clan, can't you find a man?"

Upon hearing that Xiao Yu did not recommend her, a strange sense of disappointment flashed deep in Cai Lin's eyes. She then sighed softly and said, "I am the Queen of the Snake People Clan. Between me and the other Snake-People, there is only awe. How could I possibly have someone I like?"

Xiao Yu nodded in agreement and said, "That's true. Why don't you take a look at me?"

Cai Lin glared at Xiao Yu with a murderous look in her eyes, her pretty face flushed slightly. But with a wave of her hand, a burst of energy suddenly erupted. Xiao Yu quickly stretched out his hands to block it. Bang!

With a loud crash, Xiao Yu was sent flying into the wall. Spiderweb-like cracks immediately appeared on the wall behind him. Xiao Yu grimaced and said, "Just kidding! Why such a big reaction? You'll never get married... no, nobody will want you!"

Hearing the loud noise, the others in the room rushed to Xiao Yu's room. Xun'er saw Xiao Yu rubbing his chest and immediately turned her icy gaze to Cai Lin, coldly saying, "You dare to attack Brother Xiao Yu? Don't think that just because you're Dou Zong, you can act recklessly!"

Cai Lin glanced at Xiao Yu, then looked at Xun'er, and then walked out of the room without saying a word. Xiao Yu tugged at Xun'er, Xun'er quickly supported him, asking softly, "Brother Xiao Yu, are you alright?"

Xiao Yu shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile, "I'm fine. Cai Lin didn't kill me. It wasn't her fault just now. I was just being flirtatious, and I didn't expect her to react so strongly!"

"This beautiful snake is really not to be trifled with," Xiao Yu thought to himself. "Once my cultivation surpasses yours, I'll definitely hang you up and beat you to a pulp!"

Xun'er widened her eyes slightly and said, "Why did you provoke her for no reason?"

Xiao Yu shrank back and simply stopped talking. Seeing his expression, Xun'er huffed and puffed, "I should have told her to go all out and make you suffer, hmph!"

Xiao Yu pursed his lips, looking at Xun'er's beautiful profile, and thought to himself, "Xun'er, you've changed!"

Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu, who had just arrived, watched the farce with faint smiles. Xiao Yu's eyes even showed obvious schadenfreude. Xiao Yu glared at Xiao Yu fiercely, while Xiao Yu stuck out her tongue, looking completely fearless.

The next day.

The group returned to the plaza. When Xiao Yu and his companions appeared, they immediately attracted a lot of attention. After all, following Xiao Yu's battle with Bai Shan, many girls in the academy had taken notice of Xiao Yu. He was handsome and powerful; who wouldn't love him?

It's just a pity that, looking at the beautiful women standing beside Xiao Yu, their eyes reflected a hint of jealousy and frustration. After all, they couldn't compare to a girl like Xun'er who was both capable and beautiful.

Soon, the same middle-aged referee from yesterday stepped onto the stone platform. The platform, destroyed by Xiao Yu yesterday, had been repaired overnight. The referee announced loudly, "Today is the final day of the Inner Academy Selection Tournament competition. The remaining 150 contestants from yesterday will compete today to determine the top 50 who will enter the Inner Academy!"
