Luo Feng smiled bitterly to himself upon noting the others believed his outrageous words. He then turned his attention to Zi Yuan, who was sulking at the side, and asked, "Zi Yuan, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah… Nothing. I still have to get ready for the New Talent Tournament; I should be going." Zi Yuan replied hastily, before turning around and running into the academy.
Watching Zi Yuan's retreating figure, Luo Feng couldn't help but feel puzzled. Why is Zi Yuan acting so strange today?
Xu Mei held back a smile. "It's because of you."
"Me?"
Xu Mei nodded. "Zi Yuan reached the peak of the Seventh Level of the Essence Storage Realm three days ago. She was planning to surprise you when you returned. Who knew you would cultivate so fast and break through half a month ago…"
It seems like that girl is still mulling over what happened that night...
Luo Feng thought back to half a month ago, when Zi Yuan had secretly sought him out for a duel, and couldn't help but shake his head.
