Chapter 237: Lan Mengqin

You dont have to say anything. Remember what we spoke about last time, we will continue that. Do you guys trust me? Lan Xuanyu said in a serious tone.

Of course we believe in you, Qian Lei said. Without you, we would have been eliminated from the Elite Junior class.

Liu Feng nodded his head. Back then, he and Qian Lei were the last team in the elite junior class.

Trust me, Lan Xuanyu said, I will do my best to bring you both across the final line. We brothers will never part. You said it yourself, we were last back in Elite Junior class, but now, weve come out on top. We have to create our own miracles. I can only hope that the two of you will work even harder. Having already walked to this point, we cannot relax for a second or even turn back. We can only look forward. You two should have sensed it as well, that the mother planets environment is very suitable for cultivating. If we want to continue staying, we need to get into Shrek Academy. Theres no leeway on this.

Saying this, he grasped Liu Fengs shoulder even tighter.

Yes, theres no leeway. Liu Feng subconsciously clenched his fists tightly. At this instant, his heart started to transform. If others could do it, why couldnt they?

Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng. You guys dont have to worry, Ill no longer be lazy. I dont wish to be your burden as well. Regardless of the pain, Ill definitely cultivate my Spiritual Power and refine my body after this. Ill do my utmost to raise my own strength. He was blessed by the heavens to be superior on the Spiritual Power aspect, but until now, he had not reached the Spirit Sea Realm and even lagged behind Lan Xuanyu. From being in the lead to falling behind, this was not disparity in talent but lack of diligence.

They were the clearest on how hardworking Lan Xuanyu was. Every day, he would swap between Yin Tianfan and Ji Hongbin and return back to bed with difficulty. Liu Feng was slightly better as he worked hard on his cultivation. But Qian Lei was truly lazy and forked out much less compared to those two.

Lan Xuanyu had used his abilities to carry his teammates to Shrek. Aside from feeling the beauty of the place, an invisible pressure had formed in the depths of their hearts. If Liu Feng and Qian Lei were so, how could Lan Xuanyu not be?

Although it was his first time on the mother planet, he realized that he loved the place, especially Shrek Academy. He felt as though he had always belonged here.

After the end of physical examination, Ling Yiyi brought them back to the guest house.

Upon returning, Liu Feng and Qian Lei returned to their rooms and meditated. Lan Xuanyu instead did not return back to training.

Ji Hongbin had been waiting for him.

How was the examination?

Lan Xuanyu recounted the entire process to him.

Upon hearing about their day, Ji Hongbin nodded his head. Its much more reasonable and refined as compared to before. The physical examination is just a basic examination mainly for record purposes. It doesnt represent any results. Dont bother too much about it. The following tests will be much more important. Tomorrow will be the team tests.

Teacher Ji, after my bloodline mutated, it seems that there have been great changes to my body. I was thinking of spending my afternoon testing my own abilities. This will allow me to know myself better for the later tests. Can you help me?

Ji Hongbin nodded his head. Of course. I also hoped that you would do that. It only holds weight when you have complete grasp over your strength, regardless of how powerful or how much youve grown. Otherwise, if you cant control the increase of your own strength, it might even backfire on you. We cant walk around Shrek wilfully, and we cant leave the guesthouse. We will just practise here. You attack, Ill defend.

While saying so, Ji Hongbin swung both of his hands and pushed aside the scarce furniture in the room with his gentle Soul Power, leaving an empty space in the middle.

Alright.

Everyone was working hard to prepare. This did not just for the participants from Heaven Luo planet, but even the students from the other planets.

The team tests were about to begin.

Lan Xuanyu trained with Ji Hongbin until nightfall before beginning to meditate and cultivate. No matter how good the environment on the mother planet was, it was impossible for him to reach rank 30 in the short amount of time. On the contrary, the afternoon experiment had benefited him greatly.

Early next morning, a notification from Shrek Academy arrived: The team test will be held in the afternoon, please be ready.

There were a total of 100 teams from all the various planets, totaling up to 300 people undergoing the team test. But concrete information regarding the test would be provided when the test started.

Lan Xuanyu! Inside Shrek Academys guesthouse hall, Lan Xuanyu finally met the person he wanted to see.

Dong Qianqiu was dressed in a white uniform and appeared before him, stunning as usual.

Girls develop faster than boys, and the 12-year-old Dong Qianqiu was already over 1.65 meters tall, making her slightly taller than Lan Xuanyu. The perfectly fitted uniform accentuated her youthful lines, and her pair of dark blue eyes revealed a hint of joy and shyness. When she called out his name, it was evidently more gentle, at least to him.

When did you arrive? Lan Xuanyu asked with a smile.

The day before yesterday, Dong Qianqiu replied. We took the physical tests yesterday.

Lan Xuanyus gaze swept past her face and looked up and down.

Dong Qianqiu immediately spoke with displeasure. What are your shifty eyes looking at?

Lan Xuanyu was immediately embarrassed. How was the test for you?

Alright. But it seems that the physical test is just a preliminary test and only for comparing numbers. The later test will be the highlight, but no one knows what were going to be tested on.

Right then, a voice came out from beside Dong Qianqiu, carrying a hint of surprise and strangeness. Qianqiu, is this your boyfriend?

Lan Xuanyu turned and saw a young girl that looked to be around Dong Qianqius age and sported a full head of white hair. The whiteness was extremely garish but obviously not bleached or dyed. The whiteness came from her roots to her ends and was white like snow, sparkling. A dazzling silver snowflake ornament also sat on her head.

She had a lean figure and was almost as tall as Dong Qianqiu. She was not a conventional kind of absolute beauty but had her own unique demeanour, just like a graceful orchid in an empty valley. At the moment, her icy blue eyes were filled with surprise and curiosity.

Dong Qianqius face was flushed red by her words. Elder sister Qin, please dont say that. What boyfriend are you talking about? He is just a friend.

The girl called Elder sister Qin rolled her eyes, revealing her actual character, which was completely different from her indifferent demeanour. Do you take me for a fool? Theres talk all over school that you held his arm, kissed him, flirted with him, and even ran together with him. We are sisters here, so dont put up the act with me. However, it wont be easy to fancy my familys good cabbageLan Xuanyu, was it? If you cant beat me, dont even think about touching my households Qianqiu.

Lan Xuanyu was stunned by her words, while Dong Qianqius face grew even redder. Elder sister Qin, Im going to get angry if you continue to speak nonsense. How did I become a cabbage?

Lan Xuanyus mouth twitched as he added. Im not a pig either.

Elder sister Qin laughed and fixed her white hair before extending her hand out to Lan Xuanyu. The names Lan Mengqin. I am good sisters with Qianqiu and also her good teammate. Dont worry, if you need help in the team competition, Ill help you alongside Qianqiu.

Lan Xuanyu shook hands with her and immediately felt the cool skin on her right hand and the strange feeling of his own hand melting.

Hi sisters, I am Qian Lei, Xuanyus teammate. Qian Lei, who was by Lan Xuanyus side the entire time, jumped out and smiled at Lan Mengqin as he extended his own hand.
