"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"
Ning Fengwan's eyes showed determination. She put on her underwear, then put on shorts and a t-shirt for easy movement, and tied her hair into a neat high ponytail. Her already strong and beautiful appearance was enhanced with a touch of heroism.
Xue Jing smiled and said, "Aren't we going to finish our meal first?"
"I can't eat any!"
...Let me recommend a sassy new urban novel~

Chapter 266 Extreme Martial Arts Ascend to Heaven, Xue Wan: If we weren't siblings (4K)
Zhige Base, in the courtyard of the villa.
Xue Jing was slowly practicing a rather strange set of boxing techniques.
No, it's less like boxing and more like 'gymnastics'.
The purpose of all the movements is to exercise every inch of the body as much as possible. Apart from being extremely difficult, it is no different from aerobics.
As he practiced, Ning Fengwan and the maid Yunqin behind him watched his movements and practiced along with him.
This set of movements was based on the Hidden Dragon Style's Shaking Armor Technique, which he modified in a few minutes to help people without a martial arts background loosen up their muscles and bones.
After all, Ning Fengwan, who possesses the "Snake-Slaying Vanguard" and the "Invincible Lionheart," is alright. She has the divine power of Bastet permeating her entire body, making her physical strength quite high. Yun Qin, on the other hand, has no foundation at all and needs to be taught slowly.
The main purpose was to get Ning Fengwan out of her slump and to gain some experience in teaching, rather than actually making her a great martial artist, so Xue Jing wasn't in a hurry.
"Brother Xue!"
A shout came from the doorway, and then Ning Yuantai walked into the courtyard.
Upon entering, he paused for a moment, then noticed Ning Fengwan's presence.
This was the first time he had seen Ning Fengwan in human form; he had never seen her before. But he quickly realized from the cat ears on her head and the platinum tail ring on her tail that this woman, who was almost too beautiful, was the cat that always sat on Brother Xue's shoulder.
Knowing that this person was very likely Sister Xue, Ning Yuantai immediately looked away, not daring to look any longer.
"Yuan Tai, come here."
Xue Jing didn't stop what he was doing, but instead greeted Ning Yuantai.
"Practicing with me is good for your health."
He thought that having more people would at least increase his teaching experience.
Ning Yuantai scratched his head. Although he really wanted to say that it was useless for them to practice this new martial art, he never dared to refuse Xue Jing's words, so he immediately stepped forward and started practicing.
As he practiced, he whispered to himself:
"Brother Xue, something's happened at the Skyscraper Center."
Xue Jing made a gesture similar to embracing a watermelon in Tai Chi, and said calmly, "What is it?"
Ning Yuantai followed suit, whispering, "To be precise, something happened to Xu's Biotechnology... The alarm was blaring really loudly; hundreds of floors above and below could hear it."
"Although I don't know the specifics... I heard that Xu Mude forcibly sealed off the entire Sky Center, not allowing anyone to enter or leave."
"Oh?" Xue Jing's eyes flickered, and he asked in confusion:
"The skyscraper is so big, how can he possibly seal it off? Won't the people on the other floors have any objections? Besides, are these municipal governments within the inner ring just going to let him do whatever he wants?"
Ning Yuantai followed Xue Jing's movements, feeling like an old man practicing Tai Chi in a park... Suppressing this strange feeling, he spoke:
"He spent a lot of money hiring several major security companies and deployed countless security forces to surround the skyscraper center. Now, every hour, the cost is astronomical for ordinary people."
"Furthermore... it can only be said that the Xu family has a lot of influence. Several super giant companies with their headquarters in the Skyscraper Center are letting him do whatever he wants. The municipal governments of Yuancheng, Xingcheng, and Yucheng have not made any moves so far."
Xue Jing casually asked, "The skyscraper center must be quite important, right? Why hasn't the municipal government made any moves?"
Ning Yuantai shook his head and said, "It is indeed important in terms of symbolic meaning... but in reality, it's not that important."
"Without 'Eternal Night,' the original significance of the Sky Center as a 'Sun Pillar' has been lost, and it is basically certain that it will never be activated again."
“The skyscrapers in the fifth metropolitan area are neither as politically significant as the ‘Cangting’ in the first metropolitan area, nor as functionally unique as the ‘Jiwu Dengtian Palace’ in the seventh metropolitan area.”
"Its actual function is nothing more than a taller, more expensive building... The municipal government will naturally consider whether to risk a direct conflict with the Xu family to resolve this matter."
Xue Jing looked enlightened: "I see."
As he spoke, he acted as if it were none of his business, as if he had simply heard some interesting gossip.
But his mind was filled with thought.
Although he knew that Xu Mude had lost the Primordial Wind of All Things and might make some moves, he really didn't expect the moves to be so big.
It escalated to the point where the skyscraper center needed to be sealed off.
It's just a divine relic that barely made it into the top 100 in the sequence rankings... and it's only one-ninth of that. Is it really necessary to make such a fuss?
Moreover, when he stole the primordial wind of all things, he should not have revealed the slightest flaw; he did not expose any trace from beginning to end.
It looked as if the primordial wind of all things had suddenly vanished.
In that case, the Xu family would most likely believe that the Wind of the Beginning of All Things triggered the transferability of the divine relic.
Or is it that even knowing it's highly likely the divine relic moved on its own, they're still unwilling to give up to the point of having to completely seal off the Sky Tower Center and investigate everything possible?
If that's the case, then what Xu Mude is doing is probably quite significant... at least for him personally.
'Adam... divine factor...'
Xue Jing thought of the article he had seen in the hands of that boy in that laboratory full of 'Xu Mude's'.
'It should be related to these things... I need to ask Young Haru A-Meng for details.'
Xue Jing thought to himself.
"Ah Jing, how much longer do we need to practice?"
Ning Fengwan's clear, girlish voice rang out.
"Does this really work? I feel like you're lying to me."
She looked at Xue Jing with suspicion in her eyes.
Although she was initially misled by Xue Jing's manipulative comment, "You've gained weight," she has gradually come to her senses.
But things don't seem to be quite the same.
As someone bound to the cat's tail ring and gradually merging with the power of the cat goddess Bastet, she can continuously receive the enhancement of Bastet's divine power as long as she is with Xue Jing...
While it's unclear whether Bastet's divine power helps her maintain her figure, a body strengthened by divine power should, probably, perhaps, possibly, and it's unlikely that she would accumulate much fat simply from eating, drinking, and sleeping in.
However, although she didn't admit it, she valued Xue Jing's opinion too much. As soon as she sensed that he seemed to dislike her for being fat, she panicked and was easily led astray.
"Of course it works, look at Yunqin."
Xue Jing raised an eyebrow and pointed at the little maid.
The little girl was panting heavily, covered in sweat as if she had been caught in the rain, her eyes glazed over, as if she had lost consciousness, but her body was still instinctively following Xue Jing's movements.
She was still muttering to herself, "Master... Yunqin is dying... she's really dying..."
Ning Yuantai's eyes flashed, but he pretended not to have heard anything.
But secretly, I thought to myself, "Brother Xue is playing pretty big games..."
Xue Jing coughed and said, "Look, you've already sweated at least two pounds. I don't even want to imagine how thin you'll get after ten or fifteen days of training like this."
As he spoke, he patted Ning Yuantai on the shoulder: "Right, Yuantai?"
Ning Yuantai was taken aback for a moment, then instinctively nodded in agreement with Xue Jing's words: "Yes...yes, right?"
Xue Jing waved his hand: "Just follow my training, you can't go wrong."
Ning Fengwan was skeptical, but she didn't say anything more.
……
Time flies, and another day has passed.
The U19 finals championship match will be held today.
Early in the morning, Xue Jing received a video call from her sister, Xue Wan.
After Xue Jing clicked to answer, Xue Wan's pretty face, which looked quite similar to his own, immediately popped up on the phone screen.
She appeared to be lying face down on the bed, her chin resting on a pillow, wearing pajamas, her hair a little messy, looking like she had just woken up.
"My stupid little brother... why didn't you turn on the camera!"
Before Xue Wan could finish her opening remarks, she immediately frowned and expressed her dissatisfaction with Xue Jing's decision not to turn on the camera.
"Do you know how many days it's been since I've seen you, sister? Now you won't even let me watch videos. Are you even human?!"
She looked heartbroken and sat up from her prone position, and the camera switched from showing only her face to showing her entire upper body.
On the disheveled pajamas, the button on the chest was fastened in the wrong place, resulting in a slightly large opening in the middle, vaguely revealing a glimpse of a beautiful, snow-white curve.
Xue Jing smiled, turned on the camera, revealing his unremarkable Charm Skill Lv10, and said helplessly, "It's just a problem with my phone's settings... What do you want to do?"
"You have a match to play today, and I was worried you might be nervous, so I came to check on you."
Xue Wan changed her position, lay down on the pillow, and held her phone up with both hands, pointing it at herself.
Her long, straight black hair was spread out in a fan shape on the bed, which was quite beautiful.
Xue Jing smiled and said, "Do you really think I might be nervous?"
Xue Wan pouted and said, "That's not necessarily true... I don't know what's going on online right now, but they've really hyped up this match, and they've even started to bring it up in a national context."
