Today's weather was pretty good. Zhou Wen moved a chair and lay in the yard, basking in the sun as he gamed.
As school hadn't officially started, there was no training or missions issued by the school. Zhou Wen's life was rather comfortable.
He had been attempting to kill the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus alone, but unfortunately, he had failed.
Thankfully, his efforts over this period of time hadn't gone to waste. He had obtained an ordinary Buddha Heart Lotus Companion Egg, but before he could warm it up, he fed it to the Silver-Winged Flying Ant.
Typical Companion Beasts only needed to attach themselves to their owner's body to absorb the Primordial Energy that seeped out of their owner's body to survive. They could also slowly recover from injuries without needing to eat. At most, they could absorb some Primordial Energy Crystals to quickly recover their Primordial Energy.
However, the Silver-Winged Flying Ant had to devour Companion Eggs or Companion Beasts. Otherwise, the game would constantly indicate that it was in a hungry state. Zhou Wen ignored it in the beginning, but as time passed, the game indicated that the Silver-Winged Flying Ant would vanish in twenty-four hours due to prolonged starvation.
Therefore, Zhou Wen had no choice but to feed it the Buddha Heart Lotus Companion Egg that dropped to temporarily resolve its urgent situation.
Zhou Wen was gaming in the yard while half-lying down. Next door, An Jing had already finished her morning cultivation and walked out of the cultivation room. She walked to the balcony on the second floor, hoping to look into the distance to relieve her psychological stress and continue her cultivation.
He subconsciously glanced at the yard beside him and immediately saw Zhou Wen gaming in the yard while basking in the sun. He immediately felt his mood turn sour.
Even if it's as Mom said, that his talent is better than mine, so what? Talent doesn't determine a person's achievements. To be addicted to gaming and escape from reality after suffering a little setback, what right does such a person have to compete for a Mythical Companion Beast on my behalf? Besides, his talent might not be better than mine. An Jing watched for a while before turning to walk downstairs. At the same time, she muttered to herself, "Mom, just watch. I'll prove that I'm better than Zhou Wen. I can fight for the rights to own a Mythical Companion Beast myself. There's no need for Zhou Wen."
"Zhou Wen." Just as Zhou Wen was happily grinding, he suddenly heard someone call his name. He turned his head and saw An Jing standing in the yard on the other side of the fence, staring at him.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Wen glanced at An Jing before lowering his head to continue gaming on his phone.
"The Sun Strafing Art is real. You can cultivate it." An Jing paused before saying, "If you don't believe me, you can call Uncle Feng. He'll help you verify its authenticity."
Zhou Wen didn't care about the authenticity of the Sun Strafe Art. After all, he had no way of cultivating it.
"Why did you give me the Sun Strafe Art?" Zhou Wen asked as he played.
"You must be indignant about losing to me last time, right?" An Jing said to Zhou Wen.
"There's no unwillingness. I'm convinced." He really didn't wish to have any more entanglements with An Jing. It was best if the two of them could get along like strangers.
An Jing swallowed the words she had prepared. She felt a little uncomfortable as she bit her lip and said, "I'll give you three months to cultivate the Sun Strafe Art to advance to the Legendary stage. With your foundation, three months should be enough. Then, we'll fight again. If you don't advance to the Legendary stage in three months, I won't show any mercy."
After a pause, An Jing added, "Don't say that I'm bullying you. I'll get someone to deliver Primordial Energy Crystals and other cultivation necessities to you on time. If you need Primordial Energy Skills or anything else, you can give me a list. I'll think of a solution for you. Remember, you only have three months."
Zhou Wen felt that An Jing was being unreasonable, so he frowned and said, "I admit defeat. You've won. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
Zhou Wen didn't wish to take advantage of the An family, nor did he wish to waste time competing with An Jing again. It was meaningless to him. Even if he defeated An Jing, he wouldn't gain anything.
"You have to fight. Remember, I'm only giving you three months. When the time comes, I definitely won't show any mercy," An Jing said coldly before turning to leave. She was afraid that if she continued looking at Zhou Wen's detestable look, she wouldn't be able to resist the urge to beat him up.
"Why must you fight me?" Zhou Wen found it odd. If An Jing hated him because of Ouyang Lan's remarriage, she could have beaten him up now. There was no need to go through so much trouble.
"I want to prove that I'm better than you." With that said, An Jing walked into her dormitory without looking back.
Zhou Wen found it somewhat baffling. In terms of excellence, Zhou Wen only had a little fame in Guide City. However, An Jing was publicly recognized as a genius girl in a big city like Luoyang. She had advanced to the Legendary stage at the age of fourteen, while Zhou Wen had yet to advance to the Legendary stage. There was no way to compare the two.
"Are all the people from prestigious families so eccentric? Li Xiubai schemed to kill his younger brother for a qualification. An Jing is equally baffling. Zhou Wen shook his head slightly.
After all, he had no intention of fighting An Jing, much less cultivating the Sun Strafe Art. As for whether he could advance to the Legendary stage in three months, Zhou Wen was still working on it. Of course, he hoped that he could advance to the Legendary stage in three months, but the Lost Immortal Sutra was just too strange. It was impossible to deduce with common sense.
After An Jing returned to her building, she couldn't help but head to the balcony on the second floor. She secretly glanced at Zhou Wen in the yard and saw that he was still basking in the sun and gaming. He didn't feel any sense of danger from her words, nor did he have any intention of working hard. She couldn't help but bite her lip.
It wasn't easy for Zhou Wen to wait for An Jing to leave, but before he could game for long, someone came to his door. Furthermore, it wasn't just one person, but four.
Zhou Wen looked up and saw a total of four people. He didn't know three of them, and the only one he knew was Gao Yang, who he had a grudge with because of Li Weiyang.
Zhou Wen originally imagined that Gao Yang and company were here for revenge, but to his surprise, when Gao Yang saw Zhou Wen sitting in the yard, he greeted him with a beaming smile. "Zhou Wen, do you still remember me? Fourth-year senior, Gao Yang. "
"What's the matter?" Zhou Wen continued gaming, having no intention of opening the door to invite them in.
Gao Yang wasn't angry as he continued chuckling. "We can be considered to have gotten to know each other through a fight. It wasn't anything serious in the past. If I've done anything wrong, I'll apologize to you today. Regardless of who was right or wrong, let's just let bygones be bygones. How about that?"
Gao Yang naturally wouldn't reconcile with Zhou Wen for no reason. Typically, when students saw the video of Li Xuan and Zhou Wen battling the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus, they would only find Li Xuan extremely powerful and Zhou Wen much dimmer.
However, people with sharp eyes knew that Zhou Wen's role in the battle was far greater than Li Xuan's.
Li Xuan was indeed very strong, but a student as strong as him could still be found in Sunset College. After all, Li Xuan hadn't advanced to the Legendary stage, and there were many Legendary students in the school. They were enough to replace Li Xuan in battle.
