This Master Will Give You a Physical Examination

"Xiao Yexuan, take off your shirt."

Liu Erlong's voice was clear and bright, yet carried an unquestionable tone.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yexuan froze in place, his mouth forming a perfect "O" as he asked in astonishment, "Huh?"

At this moment, the back mountain was a carpet of lush green grass, and a gentle breeze swept by, carrying the faint, fresh scent of nature.

The moment Liu Erlong brought Xiao Yexuan to this secluded spot and set him down, she had dropped this earth-shattering remark.

Even with Xiao Yexuan's superior intellect, he was caught off guard by such sudden, bold words, his mind going completely blank.

Xiao Yexuan knew full well that Liu Erlong's favorability toward him was already maxed out; they were undeniably close.

But even with affection overflowing, surely there was no need to be this impatient?

He hadn't even prepared himself mentally for anything!

Watching Xiao Yexuan stand there like a wooden chicken, two blushes suddenly bloomed on Liu Erlong's beautiful cheeks. She coughed a few times and hurriedly explained:

"Ahem! Xiao Yexuan, I just want to see how your physical cultivation is coming along."

So, it was just a physical examination.

Xiao Yexuan grumbled inwardly, though his face remained calm; he didn't believe a word of that nonsense.

Still, he put on an obedient and compliant expression, dutifully taking off his shirt.

The slightly thin fabric slid away, revealing the long, well-proportioned torso beneath.

Xiao Yexuan's build wasn't overly bulky or massive, but the muscle lines on his body were distinct and fluid, as if carved by a knife—perfect in every way.

Seeing such a flawless physique, Liu Erlong's eyes flickered, her Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and she nearly drooled.

She walked quickly to Xiao Yexuan, her jade-like hand gently covering his taut abdominal muscles, her fingertips tracing them slowly with a cool touch.

Xiao Yexuan felt a soft, chilly sensation spread from his abdomen, instantly permeating his entire body.

The strange sensation sent a fine, itchy thrill through him, causing his heart to skip a beat.

After a long while, Xiao Yexuan endured the peculiar feeling and asked somewhat uncomfortably:

"Master, have you finished checking? Does my body need more intense training?"

Hearing Xiao Yexuan's voice, Liu Erlong snapped out of her trance and hurriedly reined in the obsession in her eyes.

She reluctantly pulled her hand away from his solid muscles, her fingertips seemingly still lingering with that intoxicating sensation.

Liu Erlong raised her hand to fan her burning cheeks, trying to dissipate the heat.

She cleared her throat, steadied herself, and said, "Xiao Yexuan, your physical strength is indeed quite good."

"However, you still lack systematic and high-intensity training."

"Tonight, I will prepare a medicinal bath for you. After you finish your cultivation, go and soak in it."

Xiao Yexuan realized what she meant immediately.

The muscles he had now were all forged through hard work in his previous world; they looked impressive, but were actually more style than substance.

Beneath the muscle, his meridians were somewhat disorganized and not robust enough, and the soul power within him was pitifully scarce.

Having arrived in this world of martial soul awakening, he needed to rely on the energy of this world to polish his body and enhance his potential.

Liu Erlong truly doted on her little disciple; she had brought out such a precious medicinal bath on the very first day of his apprenticeship.

Xiao Yexuan was deeply moved and bowed to thank her.

For the subsequent cultivation guidance, Liu Erlong remained professional and didn't pull any more stunts.

Xiao Yexuan summoned his Death Martial Soul, while Liu Erlong watched his every move intently, offering pointers from time to time.

In just a short while, she provided insights that left Xiao Yexuan feeling enlightened.

He had a vague premonition that in future battles, the power of his soul skills would increase by at least ten to twenty percent compared to before.

Time flew by, and cultivation hours always passed with startling speed.

Before he knew it, the sun was setting, and it was time for the afternoon meal.

Xiao Yexuan suddenly remembered his promise to Zhu Zhuqing and dared not delay, quickly saying to Liu Erlong, "Teacher, I need to go to the cafeteria to eat."

"After I finish eating, I will come back to complete the rest of my cultivation and continue learning from you, Master."

Liu Erlong frowned slightly, her tone filled with an irresistible, doting possessiveness:

"Xiao Yexuan, why go to the cafeteria to eat?"

"I have already arranged for the chef to prepare the most sumptuous and nutritious meal, which will be delivered shortly."

"You don't need to run back and forth across the school; just stay by my side, focus on improving your strength, and refine your body."

Liu Erlong's kindness toward Xiao Yexuan was meticulous, with everything arranged perfectly.

Even the food was carefully selected, far superior to what she usually consumed herself.

Seeing Liu Erlong's enthusiastic demeanor, Xiao Yexuan stepped forward quickly, his face full of apology: "Master, I have already made plans with someone else for dinner."

"I appreciate your kindness, but I do not wish to be a person who breaks their word."

"Next time, I will definitely listen to Master obediently and properly enjoy the delicacies you've prepared."

Xiao Yexuan's tone was incredibly sincere, and the expression on his face was so earnest that not a single flaw could be found.

Liu Erlong had clearly been right beside Xiao Yexuan and Zhu Zhuqing that day, so she naturally knew who Xiao Yexuan was going to eat this meal with.

Her first instinct was resistance; an inexplicable sense of possessiveness welled up, making her wish she could keep Xiao Yexuan by her side forever.

Yet, when she saw those clear, bright eyes of his, his innocent and pure expression, and his look of keeping his word, she truly couldn't bear to let such an obedient disciple carry the reputation of being untrustworthy.

If Xiao Yexuan were to break his promise today and not go to Zhu Zhuqing, his reputation at the academy and his image in Zhu Zhuqing's heart would surely suffer a great blow.

Even in her own eyes, she couldn't stand to see Xiao Yexuan make such a mistake of principle.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Erlong finally relented. She nodded slightly and said helplessly:

"Xiao Xuan, since you have an appointment, then hurry along; don't keep the young lady waiting too long."

"But remember, come back immediately after you're finished."

"The medicinal bath I've prepared for you tonight is of vital importance to your body."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yexuan was overjoyed. He hurriedly bowed to express his thanks, then took his leave of Liu Erlong and headed toward the academy cafeteria with light, quick steps.

Before he even reached the entrance of the cafeteria, Xiao Yexuan saw that familiar figure from afar.

Zhu Zhuqing was standing quietly at the cafeteria entrance, waiting for him prettily.

Besides her, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were also present, the two girls chattering away about something.

Seeing Xiao Yexuan's figure, the three girls' eyes lit up instantly, and their faces blossomed with incredibly brilliant smiles.

Without a word, they took off and sprinted toward Xiao Yexuan.

The sight was exactly like a pack of starving wolves that had finally spotted the long-awaited sheep village.

Xiao Yexuan felt a shiver run through his heart, his scalp tingling.

He subconsciously shrank his neck, feeling that if he didn't run fast enough, he would likely be devoured alive by these three girls, leaving not even a scrap of bone behind.

It was truly terrifying!
