Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

Shen Bai chuckled, sat down next to An Li, took a spicy snack from the bag in An Li's hand, and put it in his mouth.

It tastes good; no wonder Shen Wenwen likes it so much!

I'll buy her more in the future.

"Tell me quickly, how exactly did you improve?"

An Li was obsessed with cultivation. She thought she had tested Shen Bai's abilities, but she didn't expect him to have other strengths.

She was the top martial arts practitioner in this exchange group, but after seeing Shen Bai's skills just now, she realized that if she didn't use her cultivation to suppress Shen Bai, she might very well lose to him!

Shen Bai shrugged, feigning nonchalance, and said, "There's no secret. I just dreamt about practicing martial arts last night, and this morning I found my understanding of martial arts had improved!"

"Dreaming? Practicing martial arts in a dream?"

An Li was dumbfounded!

What the hell?

Seeing An Li making such adorable expressions next to Shen Bai, his admirers went crazy!

[Ding! Jealousy from Qian Kai +12, current level 100!]

[Ding! Jealousy from Shapu +12, current level 100!]

[Ding! Hu Chang's jealousy level increased by 12, currently at 100!]

【叮！检测到15名情敌的嫉妒值达到100，35名情敌的嫉妒值达到90，40名情敌的嫉妒值达到80，可抽取对方一项能力。】

Please select 95 of your rival's abilities from the following list.

[Skill 1: Basic Alchemy Experience]

[Skill 2: Advanced Calligraphy]

[Skill 3: Advanced Ink Painting]

[Ability 4: Grand-level Five Tigers Severing Gate Blade]

[Ability 5: Perfect Level Swallow Skimming Water]

……

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully extracting abilities from 22 rivals three times. You have been awarded the title "Ten Killers," which doubles your aptitude.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the achievement of extracting abilities three times from 10 rivals in love. The system shop is now open.]

……

A series of prompts overwhelmed Shen Bai, but the appearance of the system shop immediately caught his attention.

Open the system store and you'll see a money symbol in the upper right corner.

Jealousy level: 47250

There aren't many items to choose from in the store; only a handful are visible.

Skill upgrade: 1 per upgrade

[Skill Synthesis: 1 per attempt]

[Tier 1 Breakthrough Pill: 10,000 per pill]

Upon seeing the first two items, Shen Bai immediately thought of the fact that the Xuan Yuan Thousand Transformations could automatically synthesize a martial skill once it reached the Perfect level. With this in mind, he did not hesitate to consume 2 Jealousy Points and clicked on the advancement of the Xuan Yuan Thousand Transformations.

The Xuan Yuan Thousand Transformations instantly upgraded to the perfect level. At the same time, the skills he had just acquired were quickly integrated into the Xuan Yuan Thousand Transformations. The experience of countless martial arts techniques was rapidly integrated into Shen Bai's memory, almost causing his brain to crash.

A perfect Heaven-rank martial art is not an ordinary skill like the four basic martial arts. The profound principles of martial arts contained within it are beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Even with the system's empowerment, it took Shen Bai quite a while to fully understand it.

At the same time, Shen Bai's interface also changed.

[Host: Shen Bai]

Age: 18

[Realm: Seventh Level of Acquired Realm]

[Cultivation Technique: Mysterious Origin Heart Sutra]

[Skills: Mysterious Thousand Transformations, Flying Skateboard (Perfect), Hypnosis (Minor Success), Five Thunder Technique (Major Success), Music, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, and Song (Expert)]

[Crafts: Alchemy (Beginner Experience), Array Formation Apprentice, Talisman Apprentice, Weapon Forging Apprentice (Currently Unavailable)]

[Talent: Perfect Pitch, Heavenly Voice]

Title: Ten Killers

Jealousy level: 27250

At this point, Shen Bai realized that all his classmates could offer him was jealousy points; he couldn't count on them for martial arts skills.

The system only allowed three items to be redeemed. The price of the Tier 1 Breakthrough Pill surprised Shen Bai, but he was immediately overjoyed.

It should be noted that a single Tier 1 Breakthrough Pill costs 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and even then, it's often unavailable.

If he could exchange for one and sell it, he could easily solve the problem of cultivation resources for both brother and sister.

So cool!

Thank you, Qian Kai!

Without your challenge, I don't know when I would have been able to open the system shop!

Thinking of this, Shen Bai suddenly turned to look at An Li: "An Li, Bai's Pharmaceuticals compensated me with two Tier 1 Breakthrough Pills. I'm planning to sell one. Do you want it?"

"A first-tier breakthrough pill?"

An Li didn't get involved in what happened afterward that day, so she didn't know what the compensation from Bai's Pharmaceutical was. Now, when she heard Shen Bai say that Bai's Pharmaceutical had given her two first-tier Breakthrough Pills, even though her family was wealthy, she couldn't help but be surprised.

"My mom already bought one for me, but I have a cousin who's a high school sophomore, and she's planning to buy one too. I can help you buy one for her!"

Given An Li's family's financial situation, they naturally wouldn't spend exorbitant amounts of money like Qian Kai to buy things everywhere. An Li's mother had already prepared a Level 1 Breakthrough Pill for her, just waiting for her martial arts skills to be solidified so that she could take the Breakthrough Pill and directly step into the Tenth Heaven - the Ultimate Realm!

"That's great! I'll treat you to dinner later!"

Sure enough, the rich only know other rich people. With An Li's help, giving away a Breakthrough Pill wouldn't attract attention, killing two birds with one stone.

……

Qian Kai was still reeling from the blow. He stared intently at Shen Bai in the stands, his mind replaying the scene of their battle. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't understand why he had lost to Shen Bai.

What's most puzzling is that the martial arts techniques Shen Bai used were ambiguous. They showed traces of the four major martial arts techniques, yet didn't quite resemble them, which was one of the reasons for his rapid defeat.

Having grown accustomed to sparring with classmates who practiced the four major martial arts techniques, he was somewhat flustered when suddenly faced with someone who possessed other martial arts skills.

Qian Kai grew angrier the more he thought about it. This kid must have used some underhanded tricks to catch him off guard!

Wanting to try again, but feeling a little embarrassed, Qian Kai stood there for a moment, then stomped his foot and turned back to the classroom.

Teacher Yang Xiao and Teacher Ding Jin had noticed the challenge just now, but they treated it as a normal practical competition between students and didn't take it to heart. However, the result completely exceeded their expectations.

"This Shen Bai's martial arts skills already have the flair of a master. When did he improve so quickly?" Ding Jin said, standing next to Yang Xiao.

"Last time, I sensed something was off about his Mighty Vajra Kick; it seemed like he had reached a state of perfection. Judging from his performance today, he appears to have made significant progress in martial arts!"

Yang Xiao and Ding Jin were both Qi Refining stage cultivators, and they were both impressed by the martial arts skills Shen Bai had just displayed.

"How about we let this kid represent our class in the exchange competition?"

Ding Jin felt a surge of excitement. The students from the capital were undoubtedly of extremely high caliber. To be honest, the entire school, including the principal, held the belief that friendship came first and competition second, aiming to broaden the students' horizons and prevent them from becoming complacent and self-satisfied with their achievements.

However, Shen Bai's demonstrated strength gave Ding Jin the idea to go even further. Although his cultivation level might be a little lacking, his martial arts skills were definitely enough to compete with the students from the capital!

Yang Xiao shook her head sadly: "He doesn't have time! He spends all his spare time working to earn money! Let's not disturb his life!"

"How can this be allowed? For the sake of the school's honor, how much money will it cost him to play a few games?"

Seeing Yang Xiao's protectiveness of Shen Bai, Ding Jin's expression immediately turned serious: "Teacher Yang, you can't do this! We should help students with their difficulties, but we can't waste such a good opportunity; it's beneficial for him!"

"Any benefits?"

Hearing these remarks, which were similar to Qian Kai's, Yang Xiao recalled the handsome boy's question in class: "Why don't they eat meat porridge?" Indeed, in the eyes of these people, there is only profit, and they never care about the students' real situation.

"Even if there are benefits, they won't reach him! He and his sister are struggling to even eat, and you're still spouting nonsense. Where is your professional ethics? I feel I've already failed in my duty, but I never expected you to let him participate in the competition for your own selfish reasons. Teacher Ding, I'm so disappointed in you!"

Yang Xiao was so angry that her face turned red, and she stormed off.
