Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Just as Wang Yi and Qi Xiaohao were arguing about whether to transfer schools or bribe someone, Wang Yi's phone suddenly rang.

When I took it out, it was an unfamiliar local number.

Wang Yi casually pressed the answer button.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Junior, it's me." Wu Manqi's clear and melodious voice came through the receiver.

"Are you free tonight? I'd like to treat you to dinner."

"Senior, what's the matter?" Wang Yi narrowed his eyes instantly, his vigilance increasing.

We were just talking about how Wu Guan might retaliate, and Wu Manqi found his phone number and called to invite him to dinner that night.

Based on his preconceived notions, Wang Yi thought that Wu Guan probably wanted to take advantage of the dark night to kill him.

Or is it that he wasn't that ruthless, and just wanted to find someone to beat him up to vent his anger?

But are these powerful people in such a hurry? Don't they even wait until the next day to take revenge?

Upon hearing Wang Yi address him as "senior sister," Qi Xiaohao instantly perked up and quickly leaned closer to listen.

"I want to apologize to you on behalf of Manager Wu and resolve the conflict," Wu Manqi said frankly.

Qi Xiaohao's eyes widened instantly, and he silently mouthed to Wang Yi, "Something's fishy!"

Wang Yi's heart skipped a beat, then he hinted, "No need, senior. Wu Guan and I are classmates, and we have no conflicts... Even if there was a small friction before, it was resolved this morning, and I believe it won't happen again."

Wang Yi's move can be seen as a tacit admission of defeat, but it remains to be seen whether it will be effective.

"She actually rejected me?" Wu Manqi was quite surprised, and then felt a little annoyed.

Although she had invited Wang Yi once in the morning, it was more out of politeness and courtesy. She hadn't expected Wang Yi to agree, and even if he did, Wu Manqi might feel uncomfortable.

They thought this person was taking advantage of the situation.

But this time is different.

This dinner invitation was extended sincerely by Wu Manqi, especially since she was carrying out her second uncle's mission. However, she didn't expect that Wang Yi would still refuse it so decisively.

Could it be that Wang Yi is unwilling to resolve the conflict?

It's normal for a young man to be a bit arrogant, especially since he's the victor in a duel.

"Then let me just treat you to a meal, just the two of us, without Wu Guan. Or you can go shopping or see a movie if you prefer," Wu Manqi said, suppressing her impatience as she extended the invitation once more.

She's got a lot of experience dealing with these kinds of young boys; that's how it's always written in novels and TV shows.

Wang Yi's heart sank upon hearing this. "I've already given up, why is this person still so insistent?"

I'm afraid the wine will be of poor quality, and the banquet will be of poor quality.

Well, this is clearly bullying him because he has no power or background.

Since that's the case, then don't blame me for... being a coward again.

"I'm sorry, senior, I have some things to do tonight and really can't find the time."

Wang Yi's refusal was even more resolute.

"No free tonight?" Wu Manqi said as if she had heard a joke. You're a student, and you're not free on a Saturday night!

Even the reason for refusing is so perfunctory; it seems they're too lazy to come up with any more excuses.

good good!

She had never been rejected like this before, from childhood to adulthood.

Wu Manqi took a deep breath, telling herself to stay calm. It was all for her second uncle's mission, so she spoke three times: "Then tomorrow night, tomorrow night is fine, right?"

Is this never going to end? Why are you being so resolute?

Wang Yi simply gritted her teeth and said, "Sorry, I'm not free tomorrow night either."

Wang Yi was genuinely afraid to go, and even suspected that the other party might send someone to sneak into his house tonight to retaliate.

"The day after tomorrow! It's just for a meal!" After being rejected repeatedly, Wu Manqi's voice suddenly rose several decibels, and she even gritted her teeth, showing her resentment.

"Excuse me, senior, I have to go to school the day after tomorrow." Wang Yi tried to back down, but the other party kept pressing him.

Before Wu Manqi could speak again, Wang Yi said first, "Senior, my phone is dead..."

Wang Yi decisively hung up the phone and then turned it off.

"Beep beep beep beep..."

Hearing the busy tone coming from her phone, Wu Manqi felt a little frantic.

"You brat, how dare you hang up on me!"

Just then, the sound of the door opening came from behind. Wu Manqi looked in the direction of the sound and saw Wu Guan coming out of the study.

Wu Guan's face still held a hint of grievance, resentment, and pain. But as soon as he looked up, he was met with Wu Manqi's pretty face, which was flushed red with anger.

When Wu Guan saw that Wu Manqi's eyes seemed to be spitting fire, he couldn't help but shudder and asked cautiously.

"What's wrong?"

"It's all your fault, you brat!" Wu Manqi's anger seemed to have finally found a way out. She stepped forward and grabbed Wu Guan's collar.

"You like dueling, don't you? Come on, I'll go practice with you!"

As she spoke, Wu Manqi carried Wu Guan towards the underground training room.

At this moment, Wu Guan wished he could slap himself. He could clearly see that something was wrong with this tigress, so why did he have to be so stupid as to ask that extra question?

She could only struggle as she said, "Sis, you're already a senior in high school, and I'm only a freshman! It's not fair!"

"Hmph, fair? I'm a healer fighting against you, an attacker, and you still have the nerve to say it's unfair?"

"Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong! Sister..." Wu Guan struggled repeatedly, trying to awaken his sister's love.

"Shut up!" Wu Manqi chopped Wu Guan on the head with a chop, a devilish smile on her lips. "Don't worry, no matter what the injury is, I will heal you in the end, and I promise it won't affect your lunch."

Wu Guan was shocked and realized that this beating was probably not just about breaking a few ribs, so he hurriedly called for reinforcements.

"mom!"

Hearing Wu Guan's screams, Wu Guan's mother peeked out of the room. Seeing the state of the two, she looked away without any surprise and made no attempt to stop them.

I've gotten used to it since I was a child.

Seeing that the foreign players had no intention of coming to his aid, Wu Guan felt despair and finally stopped struggling, only wailing as he asked, "At least let me die knowing why!"

Wu Manqi flung open the heavy door to the underground training room, kicked Wu Guan inside, clenched her slender white fingers into a fist, and sneered, "Heh, why? Go ask Wang Yi!"

Filled with grief and indignation, Wu Guan roared, "Wang Yi, it's you again! I'll never forgive you..."

The door to the underground training room closed, blocking out Wu Guan's voice, and the Wu family fell silent once again.

Wang Yi had no idea that he had inflicted another serious injury on Wu Guan, and this time it might even be more severe than when he defeated Wu Guan in the duel.

After hanging up Wu Manqi's call, Wang Yi slumped onto the sofa, silently thinking: Jiang Yue asked me to do this. If it doesn't work, I'll try to get Jiang Yue involved to take the fall. Anyway, his uncle is the principal, a dignified extraordinary mage. Surely he can't be outmatched by Wu's father.

At this moment, Qi Xiaohao handed his phone screen to Wang Yi and said, "Brother E, pick one."

Wang Yi glanced sideways and saw that Qi Xiaohao was searching for rankings of Huaxia Magic High School. He immediately became furious, glaring at Qi Xiaohao: "Give me a break! Do you think changing schools is as simple as changing clothes?!"

"Then, Brother E, why don't you stay at my place tonight? It's safer there," Qi Xiaohao suggested, putting his phone away.

"Come on, I'm going to stay at Shangwu. It'll be a good place to continue training. They have plenty of food and drink, and the place is big," Wang Yi said listlessly, then quickly changed the subject.

"How long will my Shangwu membership card be valid for?"

"I'm not entirely sure. If you don't upgrade your training room, it should last until next year. You can recharge it next year."

The training room Wang Yi is currently using is already a second-class training room of the Martial Arts level. The highest-level training room is the kind that high-level mages can use with peace of mind.

"Big bastard..." Wang Yi muttered.

"What did you say, Brother E?"

"It's nothing."
