I'm Done Fighting. My Mom Called Me Home for Dinner
A cloud of red mist spread across the martial arts arena. Before long, the tall, slender "Xie Mei" emerged from it.
He was the product of Hu Liena and Xie Yue's Martial Soul Fusion.
Xie Mei held two Moon Blades that flashed with cold light. The blades spun with fierce sharpness, while the three remaining Battle Soul Masters across from him were already trembling.
Lin Luo said, "Use the one-time reward, Card Skill: Fireball Technique."
It was the last Fireball Technique reward...
This time, he unleashed it at the twin sisters at the very back.
Though the twins' Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Freeze Spread, had heaven-defying control, they couldn't suffer any attack during the fusion process, or their fusion would immediately come undone.
And facing Xie Mei, the three remaining Battle Soul Masters could barely protect themselves, let alone the sisters.
Lin Luo's task was to deal with the sisters. Otherwise, with Freeze Spread supporting the three Battle Soul Masters, it was hard to say who would win.
Just before the twins could unleash Freeze Spread again, the Fireball Technique struck them. Their fusion immediately came undone, and they lay on the ground, their faces pale.
Once Lin Luo was done, he crawled straight toward the edge of the arena.
I'm out, I'm out. My mom called me home for dinner.
You bunch of noob kunkuns are no fun at all. Once I awaken my Innate Soul Power, it'll be higher than your Soul Power is now.
When Yan saw Lin Luo about to crawl off the platform, he hurried over in alarm. "Brother Baby, what are you doing? It's not over yet!"
Lin Luo frowned. "Yiya!"
When he crawled left, Yan ran left to block him. When he crawled right, Yan ran right to block him again, with a look of firm determination not to let Lin Luo leave the platform.
Lin Luo simply sat down where he was and pointed behind him.
Yan looked over just in time to see Xie Mei defeat the three remaining Battle Soul Masters. The twin sisters had long since exhausted their Soul Power and lost the ability to fight.
"We won! We won! We're the team representing Spirit Hall Academy!"
Yan shouted excitedly.
When he came back to his senses, he found that Lin Luo had vanished without a trace.
After Xie Mei came apart, Xie Yue and Hu Liena stood on the platform, smiling as they panted for breath.
Below the platform, Xu Wenqiang looked dejected.
Diyala nodded in satisfaction. "Good, good, very good. I really liked today's match."
"Xu Wenqiang's team wasn't bad either. Remember to give them special attention in their training as well."
Mailun nodded at once. "Yes, Dean."
"Huh? Where's that little baby?"
Diyala looked around and discovered that Lin Luo had vanished without a trace.
Mailun smiled. "Oh, I heard from Hu Liena that Yiya has to go home for milk around noon every day. Otherwise, his mother gets angry and disciplines him."
Diyala was stunned for a moment, then burst into delighted laughter. "Oh, good, good, good! Milk! Hahaha! That makes perfect sense!"
He could finally represent Spirit Hall Academy at the exchange meet, bringing him one step closer to the three-level Soul Power reward.
Lin Luo thought that he also needed to collect ten kinds of rare metal and learn to draw as soon as possible.
Fortunately, given Qian Renxue's status and abilities, finding the metals and learning to draw through her wouldn't be difficult.
No, finding the metals might not be difficult, but when it came to drawing, Lin Luo didn't think his little chubby hands were precise enough to achieve an eighty percent likeness.
Perhaps he would have to wait until he was a little older.
The most crucial problem was that he still didn't know what Bo Saixi looked like...
Of course, Lin Luo had a way to see what Bo Saixi looked like: he could use Distance-Ignoring Spatial Teleportation to go straight to Sea God Island.
But that required careful consideration.
When he returned home, the door was open. Lin Luo crawled inside and found Qian Renxue sitting by the washing basin, doing laundry. Beside her sat a fluffy little pink ball, perfectly well-behaved.
Lin Luo didn't know how to describe the scene.
The woman doing laundry was both beautiful and virtuous, and the little fox sitting beside her was even more adorable and cute. They were bathed in golden sunlight from outside the window, making the scene look both peaceful and heartwarming.
As Qian Renxue washed the clothes, she mischievously flicked her wet fingers at the little fox.
The little fox immediately shook its body, vigorously shaking out its fluffy pink fur, then let out a disgruntled howl at Qian Renxue.
Even so, it remained obediently crouched beside her, watching Qian Renxue wash the clothes intently.
It seemed the two had gotten along very well during the half day he had been away.
Surprisingly, the little fox was the first to notice Lin Luo. As if it had caught his scent, it immediately turned around, its round eyes growing even rounder.
"Awoo, awoo, awoo~"
The little fox bounded over happily, like a little pink ball that could bounce.
It affectionately circled Lin Luo, howling nonstop. When Lin Luo raised his hand, it immediately offered up its little head and rubbed vigorously against his palm.
"Hmph, I'm jealous!"
Qian Renxue tossed the clothes into the basin and pouted in feigned displeasure. "Baby comes home and doesn't show Mommy affection first, but plays with this little vixen instead."
Lin Luo: "..."
At your age, you're still trying to act cute? Here's an eye roll for you. Make of it what you will.
He picked up the little fox and opened the panel, ready to see what the little thing ate and how to raise it until it had nine tails.
[Species: Nine-Tailed Fox] [Name: Unknown] [Age: 6h] [Level: One tail] [Skill: Fox Tail of the Mountain (lv.1)] [Growth progress (until two tails): Zero percent] [Food: Not picky (but the better the food, the faster it grows)]
Seeing that it wasn't picky about food, Lin Luo really couldn't keep a straight face. Was it that easy to raise?
Apparently, as long as it ate, it would grow more tails. It was just like raising a normal pet.
Qian Renxue wiped her hands and came over, picking Lin Luo up and setting him on the table. She took out a handkerchief and expertly wiped the dust from his knees. "Your friend is quite well-behaved. What are you going to name it?"
Lin Luo shook his little head.
Qian Renxue tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suggested, "How about Xiao Hong?"
"Awoo, awoo, awoo~"
The little fox yipped happily on the floor, spinning in circles again and again. It even jumped onto the table in delight and burrowed into Lin Luo's arms, blinking its big, round eyes.
Qian Renxue chuckled. "Looks like it likes the name. It likes it even though it sounds so awful. I'm such a naming genius~"
Lin Luo looked at the panel. In the name field, "Unknown" had changed to "Xiao Hong."
All right, it's already been added to the record...
After preparing some warm boiled water, Qian Renxue came over with the Milk Bottle. "Be good and drink by yourself. Mommy's going to hang up the laundry."
Just then, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Qian Renxue went back to answer it.
Light Feather Douluo stood outside. He spotted the little fox crouching on the floor and wagging its tail at a glance and couldn't help asking in surprise, "Where did such a tiny fox come from?"
"Luo'er picked it up yesterday a few days ago. What's the matter, Fifth Grandpa? Is something wrong?"
Guang Ling said, "Big Brother sent me to tell you that the first-birthday selection ceremony has been arranged for tomorrow. He said you two shouldn't sleep in tomorrow morning."
At that, Guang Ling deliberately lowered his voice. "Should we give Luo'er some special training? That old man is making the whole thing quite serious and formal..."
