After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The teacher gently breathed out a breath.

Behind Shi Yan, Shi Wei felt as sour as if she had chewed on a bitter green plum, but... in this situation, she really couldn't say anything.

She wanted to retaliate, but those two guys didn't give her a chance at all.

They immediately chose Shi Hongqi and Shi Yan.

Otherwise, Shi Wei would definitely vent all her anger.

The girl could only wring Shi Yan's hair with a pitiful expression, her lips almost pouting to the sky.

Seeing Shi Yan looking at her like that, Shi Hongqi's legs seemed to go even weaker.

Perhaps it was because of the "Snow Cold Technique" that the girl was unaware that her cultivation had quietly climbed to the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Realm overnight.

certainly--

This is also due to the "Snow Cold Skill".

Therefore, although the girl's cultivation level has increased, both her spiritual energy and physical strength are currently not at their maximum.

My toes felt weak too.

This is one of the reasons why Shi Hongqi felt anxious.

She didn't want to lose face in front of Shi Yan.

"Sister Hongqi will win." Shi Yan put his arm around Shi Hongqi's shoulder and, after a long time, began to use the true power of the "Snow Cold Skill".

Originally, the "Snow Cold Skill" was not a technique used to bully girls.

Before the "Snow Cold Skill" reaches its ultimate state and can reverse the technique, its true function has always been to help others heal, restore their spiritual energy, and pass on the technique.

It's just... that bad women have used it in reverse.

Absorb spiritual energy, drain physical strength, and deplete the stamina bar.

Rarely, Shi Yan actually catalyzed the "Snow Cold Skill" once.

"Eek..." A small, cute cat-like whimper escaped from Shi Hongqi's mouth.

She suddenly felt as if she were filled, her body brimming with energy.

Moreover... unlike those legendary evil arts that supposedly grant enlightenment, he now has complete control over every inch of spiritual energy, as if... it wasn't a power lent to him by his sister Shiyan, but a power that originally belonged to him.

In fact... Shi Hongqi's feeling was not wrong.

Shi Yan simply returned the power and energy that belonged to Shi Hongqi that he had left with him yesterday to the girl, and then added a tiny bit of his own personal touch.

But how could Shi Yan possibly say such a thing?

The girl covered her mouth tightly, her face flushed with embarrassment as she peeked through her fingers, afraid that she might let out another meow.

On the other side of the martial arts arena, Shi Paohui looked at Shi Hongqi's red neck, his fists clenched tightly.

"You really like Shi Hongqi, don't you?" Shi Jiangyou tilted her head and looked at the boy beside her.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Shi Paohui said coldly, but his gaze seemed to never leave Shi Hongqi. "Who would like someone with a poker face?"

"My daughter..."

Shi Jiangyou shrugged.

Whether one likes it or not, perhaps only the person involved is unaware of it.

Or perhaps~

He knew perfectly well, but he couldn't bring himself to admit it.

After stretching her limbs slightly, Shi Jiangyou walked straight to the martial arts stage. "Facial paralysis?"

"I think so before."

"But now it seems...not like that~"

With a light laugh, she looked at Shi Hongqi, who gently broke free from the arms of the girl who had appeared out of nowhere.

The girl's face was flushed a light pink.

Her eyes and brows were filled with an indelible, captivating beauty.

"Right?"

It's like killing someone by destroying their spirit.

Shi Paohui's fists were clenched so tightly that it looked like he wanted to dig his nails into his flesh.

He looked at Shi Hongqi, who suddenly turned around in front of the martial arts stage, and behind Shi Hongqi, at the girl who looked like a playboy, who was holding Shi Wei's hand.

"Is that what the teacher said...?"

"Achoo—" Shi Yan sneezed.

Shi Wei immediately became so nervous that she wanted to take off her cloak and give it to Shi Yan.

The teacher gently pushed his hand to stop him.

She looked at the boy opposite her.

Is it just my imagination?

I have a feeling that the amount of hatred that guy has for me is constantly increasing.

Could it be that I, the God of War, have really switched careers and am now the best at beating up someone's childhood sweetheart or something...? No way, no way, Shi Yan remembers never doing anything like that.

When you encounter someone who has a partner and still pounces on you, you usually run away as fast as you can.

Could it be...? Shi Yan looked at the boy, his gaze suddenly turning to pity.

Is it unrequited love on his part?

That's so pitiful.

Looking at Shi Yan's gaze, which seemed to pity him, Shi Paohui trembled even more with anger.

On stage—

Shi Hongqi and Shi Jiangyou had already taken their positions.

"Sister Hongqi~" Shi Jiangyou said with a smile, without giving Shi Hongqi a hard time.

And those who couldn't catch up with Shi Hongqi, and could only gossip about girls behind their backs in the end—

They say the girl is the daughter of a slave... they say the girl is favored by the clan chief...

It's said that the girl must have been hurt in some way. That's why she avoids boys' advances like the plague, and even her clothing is always completely concealing. If it weren't for the inconvenience, she'd probably wear a veil every day...

Unlike those people.

Shi Jiangyou, who always surpassed Shi Hongqi and knew how difficult it was for a girl to cultivate to this level, was very friendly to Shi Hongqi.

certainly--

The premise of being friendly is that Shi Hongqi will not pose a threat to oneself.

Please advise—

The three-foot-long sword was drawn.

The biting cold air sent a chill down the spines of onlookers, even in the middle of the day.

He did not point the sword at Shi Hongqi, but instead pointed the three-foot-long blade diagonally at the ground.

Shi Jiangyou's movements were elegant, like those of a banished immortal.

Looking at Shi Jiangyou, who looked like a fairy, Shi Hongqi simply bent down.

The girl clenched her fists, and a pair of dark brown, earth-colored claws gently covered her fists.

Shi Hongqi is a practitioner of physical cultivation.

This is also why Shi Yan found the girl's legs so slender and long, with firm yet not overly muscular legs, so beautiful that Shi Yan could hardly forget them. And this is the main reason why he had to save the file.

"Wow, that's a great figure. Quite muscular."

The girl's ambush stance gave the impression of a cheetah.

Although... Shi Yan could still feel that, due to the effect of the spiritual energy of the "Snow Cold Technique," Shi Hongqi's toes seemed to be trembling slightly.

That's something that can't be helped.

She has done everything in her power to minimize the effects of [Innate Allure] on replenishing a girl's spiritual energy.

However, there are still some side effects.

"I'm about to start—" Shi Hongqi whispered to Shi Jiangyou.

Shi Jiangyou's expression also became noticeably serious.

The next second, the girl's black figure transformed into a whirlwind.

Flying is prohibited within Jizhou City, which is a significant disadvantage for a sword cultivator like Shi Jiangyou when facing a body cultivator like Shi Hongqi.

Shi Hongqi is very good at seizing opportunities.

The sharp, heavy claws dug directly into Shi Jiangyou's soft and tender heart.

His physical cultivation speed is almost the fastest among cultivators of the same level.

Dodging at this time can easily create opportunities for the girl.

When two people are at similar cultivation levels, a battle between them becomes a battle for 'resources'.

A single misstep can lead to gradual erosion and ultimately, complete defeat.

Moreover... people's hearts are too big; if they try to dodge, they might make a mistake.

Shi Jiangyou slashed his sword directly at the girl's throat, while simultaneously forming a sword-controlling hand seal with his left hand.

Swords flashed and shadows clashed before her.

If Shi Hongqi were a cultivator of the same level as her, even if the hastily crafted incantation couldn't completely block the girl's attack, it would still pose a significant obstacle to her.

But unfortunately, that's not the case.

He was three levels higher than Shi Hongqi in cultivation.

If she insists on charging forward... she will inevitably suffer more serious injuries than I will...
