I became a big shot in the quick transmigration world.

Chapter 206 Demon or Immortal, a Single Thought Away (42 pages)
Upon returning to Cangqi Academy, the first classmate Yu Muhuai saw was Ye Mingren.

Compared to the spirited, energetic young man who used to love showing off his relationship, Ye Mingren now looks like he has aged more than ten years.

He looked like a wild man who had lived in the deep mountains and forests for several years.

His hair was messy, his beard was stubble, and even the wrinkles on his face had increased considerably. His clothes were also a mess, with the ties completely tied wrong.

Upon seeing Yu Muhuai, Zong Mao, and the others enter the school, he rushed over to them, asking if Lu Xing might still be alive.

Clearly, they cannot accept the fact that Lu Xing is dead.

Lu Xing was the first friend Yu Muhuai made at this academy, but she couldn't save her and felt extremely guilty.

She lowered her head silently, unsure of how to answer.
Upon seeing the expressions on the faces of the people opposite him, Ye Mingren burst into tears. Even if he still couldn't accept it, he had no choice but to give up now.

That evening, Ye Mingren left the academy without even saying goodbye.

Years later, a monk appeared on the Qiongling Continent, whose Dharma name was Yongxing.

When Master Yongxing passed away, he walked to the ghost town, found the place where his lover had died before he became a monk, sat there, closed his eyes, and slowly stopped breathing.

This is something.

After Liu Chengze returned to school, Shi Yumian, who had been anxiously waiting for him for more than two months, immediately came to find him.

After avoiding each other for so long, Liu Chengze finally faced the problem between them this time.

"I'm sorry, junior sister, I don't like you."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yumin's eyes instantly reddened. She panicked and took a step forward as if trying to grab onto something, wanting to grab Liu Chengze's robe.

In the past, Liu Chengze couldn't bear to refuse, and just let Shi Yumian pull and tug at him.

But this time, Liu Chengze dodged in time, avoiding Shi Yumian's touch.

Shi Yumin's eyes widened, and her doe-like eyes gradually turned red, glistening with tears.

Her long, thick eyelashes fluttered, and tears immediately fell.

"Brother Liu, you weren't like this before. Why have you changed after coming back from that trip?"

Liu Chengze lowered his eyes, avoiding looking into the other person's eyes, his tone completely calm, "Junior Sister, I have never promised you anything."

I admit that I had feelings for you before, and therefore never resisted your advances; that was my mistake.

However, I'm sorry, all I want to do right now is improve my cultivation level; I don't like anyone.

The misunderstandings you had in the past few months were all because of what happened in the secret realm. But those were all illusions. There was nothing between us. We didn't fall in love, and we didn't actually experience any of the events depicted.

I was previously plagued by inner demons, and I couldn't even take care of myself, so I kept avoiding your feelings and didn't know how to respond.

But now that my inner demons have been eliminated, I only want to focus on my cultivation and ignore everything else. Romantic relationships are a luxury I can no longer afford.

Junior sister, forget the past in the illusion, forget your feelings for me, and I believe you will soon be able to overcome your inner demons.

Don't come looking for me again. Take care.

After saying that, Liu Chengze turned and left without glancing at Shi Yumin once.

Behind him, the girl tormented by her inner demons squatted down, hugged her knees, and cried her heart out without any regard for her image.

A few days later, Shi Yumin left Cangqi Academy and dropped out of school.

The top-tier sect in the east, Menghua Yanyu Pavilion, sent people to pick up Shi Yumian.

Years later, a sect suddenly emerged in the eastern region, called the Valley of Heartbreak.

Disciples who enter the Valley of Heartbreak must renounce all emotions and love, focusing solely on cultivation. Anyone found to have any romantic entanglements will be subject to extremely severe punishment.

The master of the Valley of Heartbreak was named Shi Yumian. She never fell in love with any man in her life and lived a lonely life, never marrying.

This is also a later story.

After returning to school, Yu Muhuai soon started climbing the rankings. It took her more than a year to climb to second place on the C-grade rankings.

Coincidentally, the student who came in first place was also someone who frequently took on assignments outside the office. Yu Muhuai never managed to run into him, so she stopped insisting on it.

More than a year later, it was time for the triennial assessment.

Yu Muhuai unsurprisingly entered Grade B.

Then she started her relentless campaign of kicking people off the leaderboard.

The students of Cangqi Academy were already used to her behavior and had become numb to it.

The former battle maniac has become even more insane.

The once icy beauty is gone forever.

Since his icy persona crumbled, Yu Muhuai has stopped pretending.

In between competing for rankings and learning spirit arrays, Yu Muhuai established a debate club at Cangqi Academy.

"May I ask, what is the purpose of the debate club?"

Yu Muhuai smiled slightly and, with eloquence, demonstrated to the surrounding students what debate is all about.

Years later, Cangqi Academy uniquely established the first Debate Academy on the Qiongling Continent, aiming to teach people how to use words without resorting to violence.

Three years later, Yu Muhuai was promoted to Grade A.

This time, she finally knocked out the first place and became number one.

Looking at the woman with a bright smile not far away, who had long since shed her icy demeanor, Liu Chengze felt a wave of loneliness wash over him.

In recent years, whenever he has made progress, he would challenge his opponent to a duel.

Yu Muhuai accepted them all, refusing all offers.

However, each time, Liu Chengze ended in failure.

Sometimes the other party would simply leave, but when they had some free time, they would say a few more words and offer some pointers to Liu Chengze.

At first, Liu Chengze was not used to it, his face turned red, and he felt a little embarrassed.

After a while, he got used to it.

Later on, after each loss, he would chase after Yu Muhuai, asking how much he had improved, where his weaknesses lay, and how to improve next time.

So much so that later, when Yu Muhuai saw him chasing after him, he would show a somewhat troubled expression.

Liu Chengze, however, felt that the distance between them seemed to have narrowed considerably. The previous barriers seemed to have vanished.

But seeing her today, seeing that radiant smile, Liu Chengze felt an emptiness in his heart, as if something was about to be lost.

Seeing Yu Muhuai turn and leave, Liu Chengze reached out his hand.

But that one sentence was never uttered.

Next time, there will be another chance.

After winning first place on the Grade A leaderboard, Yu Muhuai took the token Tian Menglong had given her and set off to find the dean of the Spirit Array Academy.

At this time, she was at the fifth level of the Tongtian Realm, a god-level spirit array master.

The things taught at the academy could no longer help her make any progress.

A year later, she found the Dean of the Spirit Array Academy, who was wandering around the eastern region.

After much entanglement and persuasion from Yu Muhuai (whose nickname is "the sophist"), the dean finally agreed to teach her personally.
