Chapter 52: Ye PaoPao and the Exam (Part 1)

  As for the Tian Xie Sect, through his conversation with the Ming Wu father and daughter, Zhou Weiqing had already roughly understood. But what was that so-called number one peak of the Northern Domain, Snow God Mountain?

  There's no doubt that if I was able to return home safely, it must have been the white-clothed girl who saved me. With her Six-Jewel strength, she shouldn't be able to defeat the Nine-Jewel Realm's Mingwu, right? The Stone Cat's Eye, her Intention Jewel is also a Stone Cat's Eye.

  Unconsciously, Zhou Weiqing's mind recalled the icy beauty of that white-clothed girl, and he swallowed hard, muttering to himself: That little thing in white yesterday had a pretty perky butt. Before I could take a closer look, she knocked me out. What a pity. I wonder why this Snow God Mountain girl wanted to save me.

  He didn't notice that the fat cat lying nearby had slightly moved its body after hearing his words.

  After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Weiqing's face gradually revealed a hint of a smile. He had already gained some confidence in his heart, and some things weren't a problem once he figured out the key point.

  It's simple, since the Snow God Mountain's Tian Er sent him back instead of taking him away, it proves a point. She not only repelled or intimidated the Ming Wu father and daughter but also ensured that she wouldn't face retaliation in this city of Fuli. Otherwise, if she was helping herself, why would she throw herself back into the fire pit?

  Having understood this point, Zhou Weiqing naturally had no more worries. As for why the Snow God Mountain girl wanted to help him, he didn't think much about it. Since she wasn't going to talk to him, he was happy to be idle. Although that girl was beautiful, what if her purpose was the same as the Heavenly Evil Sect? Wouldn't that be a loss? It's said that one should cherish being ignorant, and Zhou Weiqing wouldn't go looking for trouble himself.

  He changed into a clean set of clothes and rushed out to wash up. By the time he arrived at the living room in the small courtyard, a fragrant breakfast had already been laid out.

  Breakfast was simple, with a few boiled eggs, a large bowl of porridge, a plate of steamed buns, pickled cucumber as a side dish, and some fruit.

  Shangguan Bing'er finished her busy work and happened to see him coming in, "Hurry up and eat, after finishing eating we will go to school.

  Zhou Weiqing's figure flashed and he was already by her side, a joyful expression on his face as he used the Sky Shuttle to arrive beside Dugu Bo, embracing her in a tight hug, and amidst her startled cry, he forcefully kissed her cheek.

  "Disgusting, fatty." After succeeding, Zhou Weiqing quickly flew away, not giving Shangguan Fei'er a chance to retaliate. Looking at her angry appearance and then at the steaming hot breakfast on the table, Zhou Weiqing felt extremely satisfied in his eyes and heart.

  "Xiao Pang, you're so naughty! Hmph. If you behave like this again tomorrow, I won't make breakfast for you!"

  Shangguan Bing'er said with an ill temper.

  Zhou Weiqing chuckled and grabbed a bun, saying: "Baby Bing'er, can you bear to part with it?"

  It's just a kiss, husband kissing wife, it's natural and reasonable.

  Shangguan Ben'er glared at him and ignored him, sitting there eating her breakfast.

  Zhou Weiqing suddenly said: "Bing'er, let me tell you a story, okay? Consider it an apology."

  Shangguan Bing'er ate her breakfast while looking at him with a puzzled expression, wondering what he was up to this time.

  Example.

  Zhou Weiqing played with the steamed bun in his hand, and chuckled: "In the past, there was a guessing game. One person was responsible for hosting, while two others played the game. The host would take an object and let one of the players see it, then that player would use gestures and language to describe it to the other player, but couldn't say the name of the object or any related words. The player who was guessing had to figure out what the object was through the description and gestures, and if they guessed correctly, they won."

  Shangguan Bing'er was already attracted by Zhou Weiqing's words, eating while listening to him speak.

  Zhou Wei Qing held the round steamed bun in his hand and smiled, "This time, it's a husband-and-wife pair playing the game. The host takes out a steamed bun and lets the wife look at it, then asks her to describe it to her husband. The wife uses both hands to gesture a circle and says, 'Round and white, you just ate one last night.' Ice, do you think the husband guessed correctly?"

  Shangguan Bing'er said: "It must be guessed correctly. His wife has already said it so clearly, and the one who meets these conditions is definitely Mantou."

  Zhou Weiqing said seriously: "No, that husband guessed wrong. After listening to his wife's words, he guessed: meow."

  Shangguan Bing'er was taken aback at first, and then the mouthful of porridge she had just drunk sprayed out. Her pretty face turned bright red. Especially when she saw Zhou Weiqing over there, lewdly pinching the steamed bun in his hand while his gaze floated towards her chest, only then did she realize that this guy was actually flirting with her.

  "The beauty is spitting porridge, this doesn't look too good. What if she chokes? Slow down, slow down." Zhou Weiqing said with a smile on his face as he began his breakfast sweep.

  Until the two of them walked to the entrance of the Imperial Military Academy, Shangguan Fei'er was still sulking and ignoring Zhou Weiqing, but she was dragged by the hand by that shameless Zhou Weiqing.

  "Today's class is about to start. You must study hard!" Zhou Weiqing pulled her along, walking majestically towards the inner part of the academy. Ouyang Xue'er tried to struggle free but couldn't manage to do so.

  "I'm going to study hard? Don't you need to either?" Shangguan Bing'er said with a bad tone.

  Wu Wei Qing chuckled and said, "I'm different, I only need to be the black hand behind you commanders, that's enough." Although he appeared relaxed on the surface, in reality, his heart was also under heavy pressure. After all, Ming Hua was their class teacher, and he couldn't guess how she would treat him today either.

  As they were talking, the two of them had already entered the college. Just as they stepped through the gate, they were blocked by someone in front of them.

  Finished.

  Blocking their way were over a dozen students, all of whom were high-ranking aristocratic students. Wearing luxurious clothes, they had an air of superiority about them.

  The first one was a young man in his early twenties. Seeing this person, Zhou Weiqing's eyes couldn't help but flash with a hint of surprise.

  This young man in his early twenties had a very ordinary appearance, absolutely the kind that can't be picked out from a crowd. However, the noble students behind him were extremely respectful. The young man's gaze was very calm and peaceful, with no hint of arrogance, and his complexion was ruddy, making him look like a sunny boy. In a different setting, it would be impossible for anyone to sense any threat from him.

  Yesterday at the opening ceremony, Ye Lou, who had slipped away with a hangdog expression, was now standing beside this young man, leaning forward slightly from the waist up, with an ingratiating look on his face.

  "Are you Zhou Weiqing's junior brother?" The young man at the forefront smiled slightly at Zhou Weiqing.

  His voice was as calm and mellow as his eyes.

  "Right, I am Zhou Weiqing. And who are you? What brings you to me?" After the events of last night, Zhou Weiqing felt that he should be more restrained, after all, this was the capital of the Fei Li Empire, and there were still many forces here that he could not resist. Better safe than sorry, especially since he wasn't alone here, there was also Bing'er.

  "Junior Brother Zhou, I'm Ye PaoPao, a third-year student at the Academy. I've come specifically to apologize for my younger brother's offense yesterday." As he spoke, he slightly bowed his head in respect towards Zhou Wei Qing.

  Ye PaoPao? This name was naturally unfamiliar to Zhou Weiqing, but without a doubt, he was the leader of the Ye family from yesterday. According to Zhou Weiqing's guess, this Ye PaoPao was probably also a top-notch existence among all the noble students.

  "No need to be like that, Senior. Let bygones be bygones." Zhou Weiqing also had a smile on his face, and at this moment, he looked completely different from the arrogant and domineering figure he was yesterday during the opening ceremony.

  Ye Pao smiled and said, "My name may seem a bit strange to you. Yesterday's performance by my junior brother at the opening ceremony was truly stunning. I came today for two reasons: one is to apologize, and the other is to get to know my junior brother better. I heard that he is also an excellent intermediate Condensing Master. If in the future my junior brother has any condensing scrolls he wants to sell, I am willing to buy them at a price 20% higher than the market price. Money is not a problem."

  "This leaf bubble is not simple at all." Zhou Weiqing said calmly, "That's perfect, I still have a few Condensing Shape Scrolls here. If Senior has an interest, then take it away."

  Why not make money if you have it? Moreover, the other party is showing goodwill, and you still need to mix in the college, there's no need to quarrel with Ye Pao. More importantly, compared to Ye Lou, Ye Pao is like heaven and earth, although he may not be a good thing, but at least his current performance is not annoying.

  Thinking of this, Zhou Weiqing took out a mid-grade Condensation Scroll from his personal storage wristband that he had just finished making yesterday.

  Watching Zhou Weiqing take out one box after another containing Condensed Scroll from the storage ring, Ye BaoBao couldn't help but feel extremely surprised. He didn't expect Zhou Weiqing to believe him so easily either. After all, considering what happened at yesterday's opening ceremony, they should be on opposing sides. Just as Zhou Weiqing thought, he came here today to make amends.

  Ye PaoPao took over five wooden boxes from Zhou Weiqing's hands, opened one of them and took a look inside. He immediately showed an expression of surprise and delight.

  Intermediate Shaping Scroll.

  Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Senior brother indeed has a good eye for things. This is indeed an intermediate-level Condensing Scroll. I only have five of these on hand, and I was thinking of selling them to get some money to buy materials for making scrolls. If senior brother's price is reasonable, I can sell one or two to you. You can choose first. The Printing Palace and the Academy also want to buy from me, but I need to leave some for them. It's not about the money, senior brother understands."
