As soon as Thousand Magnet returned to the M Country players' common lounge, Raven Ruiwen a chair away, and the chair landed squarely in front of Thousand Magnet, as if she was deliberately picking a fight.

"Hey, what do we do now?" Ruiwen, arms crossed and face dark, roared at Thousand Magnet, "Your 'plan' didn't work at all! It's not what you agreed on beforehand, is it?!"

Thousand Magnet knew that Ruiwen's voiceover was questioning why he hadn't seriously injured Yinglong as promised and let him "Plunder" him, but the others in the lounge only thought they were talking about the match.

Ye Wanqing brushed her teeth, Xiao He took the opportunity to help her tidy up the stray hairs sticking up on her head.

"Look at you, your hair is all messed up from sleeping," Xiao He said, gently stroking her head. He looked at Ye Wanqing in the mirror. Ye Wanqing blinked her beautiful big eyes at him, and their eyes met.

"Gurgle..." Ye Wanqing mumbled incoherently as she brushed her teeth. Xiao He kissed her on the cheek, poured her a glass of water, and stood beside her brushing her teeth. The little girl smiled at him as she looked in the mirror.

"Silly girl." Xiao He patted her head and started brushing his teeth. Ye Wanqing, of course, finished brushing her teeth first and stood aside smiling, waiting for him. "Old Xiao, let's eat lunch at school today."

"Why?" Xiao He asked somewhat reluctantly, then rinsed his mouth. Ye Wanqing had been waiting for this moment for a long time, pouting her little lips and leaning in, "Mua~!" A loud kiss, then a mouthful of toothpaste flavor.

"The fridge is empty, and I have classes back-to-back today, the third and fourth periods in the morning and the first and second periods in the afternoon. I simply don't have time," Ye Wanqing said while helping Xiao He wash his face. "Just make do for today, I'll cook you something delicious when I get back tonight."

"Alright then," Xiao He muttered. Ye Wanqing nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, it's clean now."

After living with Ye Wanqing, Xiao He developed a fondness for drinking porridge in the morning. A sip of warm porridge would soothe his digestive system, which had been quiet all night, and naturally restore his energy. After breakfast, Xiao He would ride his old bicycle and take Ye Wanqing to school.

"Her delicate and pretty appearance is like a juicy peach that everyone wants to take a bite of..." Xiao He hummed a song as he rode his bike, in an incredibly good mood. Ye Wanqing hugged his waist and laughed, "Old Xiao is singing."

"What? Is it that strange?" Xiao He retorted irritably.

"That's strange, you've never sung at home before," Ye Wanqing said with a grin.

"Because my mouth was never idle; I was either kissing you or talking to you," Xiao He replied. Ye Wanqing thought for a moment and nodded, "That seems to be true... But you sang quite well, without going off-key, and your voice was good too."

"That's right, you're my girlfriend, how could I say it's not good?" Xiao He smiled smugly.

"Hehe." Ye Wanqing pressed her face against his back and laughed happily.

Although the two were riding on a beat-up bicycle, their affection for each other drew envious glances from those around them.

However, everyone's current focus is on only one topic: the finals of the Mutant Competition Arena next week.

Wherever Xiao He passed by, people around him were discussing this matter. Although everyone basically believed that "Yinglong" would win the championship this year, whether in the team competition or the ring competition. After all, the power shown by that punch...

"How do you feel?" Ye Wanqing asked curiously, poking Xiao He's cheek with a smile. "Everyone's looking forward to it, are you feeling pressured?"

"With you here, what pressure do I have?" Xiao He said, leaning on the table. "If I have any pressure, I'll just pour it all out on you."

At this point, Xiao He suddenly frowned and gasped in pain, "Hiss..."

"What's wrong?" Ye Wanqing asked with concern, stroking his head.

"When I turned over in my sleep last night... I think I poked my testicle, it hurts a bit now." Xiao He looked pained, and Ye Wanqing couldn't help but chuckle. She pursed her lips, suppressing her laughter, and sympathetically touched his face. "Shall I massage it for you tonight?"

"Don't rub it, it hurts as soon as you touch it... it even pulls on the tendon in my leg." Xiao He shook his head and said.

"Oh dear, could it be poisoning? We'll have to suck it out," Ye Wanqing said with a giggle.

"That's quite possible, let's give it a try." Xiao He nodded seriously.

"Shameless!" Ye Wanqing poked his face hard and said. Xiao He innocently replied, "You asked for it yourself..."

"Hmph, don't get carried away. I only agreed for your health, okay?" Ye Wanqing said coquettishly, resting her chin on her hand. Xiao He simply smiled and patted her head, everything understood without saying a word.

After finishing their morning classes, Xiao He and Ye Wanqing planned to have lunch near the school before continuing their afternoon classes.

This was Xiao He's first time eating at this school, so the two of them went to the student cafeteria first.

"There are so many people, even though the food is so bad..." Xiao He muttered in dissatisfaction.

"Because not everyone is so well-off," Ye Wanqing said, linking her arm with his. "Is there anything you'd like to eat?"

"I want to eat your fried noodles with soybean paste..." Xiao He muttered. Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "Then I'll make it for you tonight?"

Xiao He nodded, and Ye Wanqing led him forward. "Let's... take a look first, and if it doesn't work out, we can eat outside the school."

Just then, they spotted a familiar figure in the crowd; they only knew one person in the entire school. Ye Wanqing waved cheerfully to Huang Ling: "Senior! What a coincidence, we meet again!"

"It's not a coincidence at all. I came here to monitor you," Huang Ling said with a smile.

Xiao He: "..."

"What good food is there in the school cafeteria?" Ye Wanqing asked curiously.

"The barbecue and fried skewers at this cafeteria are pretty good, and they're also very cheap," Huang Ling said with a smile.

"Let's go try it then," Ye Wanqing said with a smile, then turned to Huang Ling and asked, "Senior, do you want to eat with us? Since we're already here, you're all alone, right?"

"That's really hurtful," Huang Ling muttered softly, puffing out her cheeks.

"Old Xiao, go order." Ye Wanqing gestured to Xiao He with her small hand, and Xiao He readily agreed.

"You're the only one in the world who would dare talk to him like that," Huang Ling teased, resting her chin on her hand.

After buying the kebabs and fried skewers, Xiao He carried a full tray of food back to Ye Wanqing and Huang Ling. The three of them ate and chatted about the upcoming Mutant Competition. After their meal, they took a walk together on campus. Xiao He suddenly felt a little excited: he was actually living a university life like an ordinary college student... This feeling was so novel!

However, he is still Yinglong after all. It's fine to do this occasionally, but if he does it every day... he'll feel like he's wasting his time.

Therefore, the next day Xiao He decided to be a friendly neighbor for a day.

"A brawl has broken out on 23rd Street in Blue District... I'll be there soon." Xiao He glanced at the message on the "Aid App," then greeted Ye Wanqing, "Little Pufferfish, I'm off to be Spider-Man, okay?"

"Remember to come back for lunch on time, okay? I'm planning to make salt and pepper pork ribs today; they taste best while they're hot." Ye Wanqing called out from the kitchen. Xiao He responded and then used his Dimensional Walker to arrive at the scene of the crime.

Right now, five teenagers, around seventeen or eighteen years old, are punching and kicking two adults.

"Hi, have I disturbed anyone?" Xiao He landed in the crowd and asked with a smile.

The five young men turned around and, upon seeing Xiao He, were immediately startled: "Ying... Yinglong!? Is it really Yinglong?" "No way? Yinglong actually cares about such trivial matters?" "Could it be an imposter?"

"It's true," Xiao He said with a smile, pointing at the five of them. "You're suspected of intentional assault. The police are on their way. Behave yourselves, okay? You know me, if I make a move, it'll basically be..."

At this point, Xiao He looked curiously at the two people on the ground and laughed, "Oh?! It's you two!"

The two men on the ground were the same cat-rescuing men Xiao He had encountered twice before. One of them was curled up, seemingly protecting something. Upon seeing this, the five young men exchanged glances and prepared to flee, but Xiao He raised his hand, and the five men were instantly bound by his Psychokinesis, floating in mid-air, unable to move.

Then, Xiao He reached out to the two men who had rescued the cat and pulled them up from the ground. The man who had rescued the cat cried bitterly, "We can't let these five people go so easily! They... they're nothing but beasts in human skin!"

"What happened? What did you do to them...?" Xiao He asked, suddenly noticing that the man who rescued the cat was holding a trembling kitten in his arms. The kitten was missing an ear and both of its front paws were broken.

The left forepaw was cut off at the root, while the right forepaw disappeared starting from the elbow.

Moreover, judging from the break, it must have been some time ago, as the wound has already scabbed over.

Upon seeing the wound, Xiao He immediately understood: cats fighting for territory could never inflict such damage; only humans could cause such wounds. Therefore, Xiao He turned to the five trapped men.

"You mean, these five guys did it?" Xiao He asked the man who rescued the cat.

"It's them!" The man who rescued the cat's companion burst into tears, "We came here specifically because of a tip from the local residents! They said someone has been abusing cats here for a long time, resulting in the deaths of more than a dozen stray cats!"

"They're just a bunch of beasts!" the five young men said irritably.

"But you guys hit someone too," Xiao He said, looking at the five young men and pointing to the man who had rescued the cat behind him.

"That, that's because... it's because... they..." The five people were speechless.

Xiao He rested his chin on his hand and pondered. Just then, the sound of sirens grew closer and closer. He snapped his fingers and laughed, "Ah! I have an idea! Like this..."

As he spoke, Xiao He reached out his hand to the man who had rescued the cat. "Here, give me the cat."

"It... it's very afraid of people, you'd better be careful..." the man who rescued the cat said worriedly, handing the cat over.

But Xiao He simply placed one hand on the cat's head and grabbed the men abusing the cat with his other hand.

Although he cannot convert inorganic matter into organic matter, he can convert organic matter into inorganic matter.

Therefore, a large amount of body tissue emanated from the men who were abusing the cat, and then quickly condensed on the cat's body. Its mutilated ears began to grow, and its severed claws also began to spread.

Soon, new ears and claws grew back. Of course, they weren't real flesh, but prosthetics made by Xiao He through "Mechanical Modification." But although they were prosthetics, they were completely different from ordinary prosthetics; they were true "mechanical arms." The machinery had fused with the flesh at the break point, making them indistinguishable from normal limbs.

"Come on, give it a try," Xiao He said with a smile, then watched as the man who had rescued the cat placed it on the ground.

The cat looked around and nimbly ran a couple of steps. Although it hadn't fully gotten used to its new "prosthetic limb" yet, once it did, it would return to being a normal cat... or rather, much stronger than a normal cat.

"Hey! Mimi, no, we still need to take you to an adopter!" The man who rescued the cat quickly picked her up, then turned to Xiao He and smiled, "Oh dear, we're troubling you again."

"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Xiao He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something: Wouldn't this Mechanical Modification be absolutely awesome?

This allows for the direct replacement of severed limbs with mechanical parts, which is far superior to conventional prosthetics!

"Goodness, why didn't I think of this application before?" Xiao He pondered, resting his chin on his hand. However, whether this method can be used on humans remains to be tested, since the human nervous system is different from that of a cat.

But Xiao He felt that it should work...

At this time, the police cars had also arrived at the scene and were preparing to take away the five young men that Xiao He had subdued.

"How tragic, because there's no animal protection law, they're being arrested for assault instead." The man who rescued the cat sighed, stroking the cat in his arms. "But we only suffered minor injuries, while the cat was so badly hurt..."

"Human society is constantly progressing, let's give it some time." Xiao He patted the man who rescued the cat on the shoulder and said, "There are always people like you and me working hard to make it better, right?"

However, Xiao He was in a hurry to study the ability to Mechanical Modification, so he didn't plan to chat idly here. "I have some things to do today. Where do you work? I'll help you promote it next time I have time."

"Oh, we are employees of the 'Stray Animal Home' in Beichang City," the man who rescued the cat explained.

"Stray Animal Home ..." Xiao He nodded. "I'll remember that. I'll go visit another day."

Then, Xiao He flew into the air and made a phone call to Cui Man, "Hey, Sister Man? I've discovered a really powerful use for my ability. Do you want to have a few people test it out? I just tested it on a cat, and it definitely works."
