37: Chapter 37 Magical Girl, Cooperation Achieved
Zhou Bai's brow furrowed slightly as he looked toward the source of the sound.
Immediately, he saw a pure girl with delicate features and smooth skin slowly walking out from the other side of the forest not far away.
The girl's eyes were lively, and she had a slender, graceful figure.
That white tight-fitting camisole, paired with light blue tight jeans, outlined perfect curves.
Coupled with the innocent expression on her face, she was simply devastatingly attractive.
Although the system could not be activated, Zhou Bai was certain that this girl's beauty was not inferior to Chu Lingyan, whom he had met at the Moon Shadow Martial Arts Hall before.
However, even though the girl didn't look threatening, Zhou Bai still secretly gathered his strength, ready to kill her instantly if anything felt wrong.
"Who are you? I don't think I know you!"
Zhou Bai then asked indifferently.
"I'm your fan! Your performance in the challenge matches was simply too strong, insta-killing ten top martial arts geniuses all by yourself..."
The girl then looked at Zhou Bai with sparkling eyes, her expression incredibly excited, as if she really were a fanatical fan of Zhou Bai's.
"Who are you!"
Zhou Bai was not swayed by the girl's words, but continued to ask with a deep gaze.
"I'm a freshman from Magic Martial, Shen Ninger!"
The girl's dimples showed slightly as she smiled.
Hearing the girl's words, Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat; a genius from the Imperial Martial Arts University.
The girl's answer left Zhou Bai somewhat speechless; for a moment, he couldn't tell if this person was a troll or a hater.
Magic Martial was the top martial arts university among the Top Ten; those who could enter it were definitely not simple.
Claiming to be a fan of a Junior College Student like him was really giving too much face to vocational students.
"I see. Good luck to you, I'm leaving!"
Zhou Bai took a deep breath and said.
Not knowing this girl's background, Zhou Bai didn't want to invite unnecessary trouble.
Right now, his Qi and Blood Power and physical strength were heavily depleted; if he encountered another opponent like Du Wenjie, it would be truly difficult to handle.
"Wait, Brother Zhou Bai, let's cooperate!"
Just as Zhou Bai turned to leave, Shen Ninger suddenly grabbed Zhou Bai's hand and looked at him with an expectant face.
Seeing the girl in such a state, Zhou Bai raised an eyebrow.
Was this girl truly naive, or was there something else...
"Brother Zhou Bai, although I'm a freshman at Magic Martial, my talent is of the support type. It's very dangerous here. I can help you scout the surrounding dangers so you can hunt fierce beasts better. Moreover, I don't want any points; I'll give them all to you!"
"As long as Brother Zhou Bai takes me into the elimination rounds, it'll be enough. Please, Brother Zhou Bai, I'm your fan, give me a chance~"
Seeing that Zhou Bai still seemed wary, Shen Ninger continued to speak to him pitifully.
Shen Ninger held Zhou Bai's arm and shook it gently.
That pure and innocent demeanor made Zhou Bai's heart unable to resist a ripple of emotion.
She shouldn't be an enemy, Zhou Bai thought to himself.
Zhou Bai possessed a top-tier S-grade Psychic Power talent. Although it hadn't been fully developed, he could faintly sense the malice of people around him.
Moreover, this girl seemed quite weak...
"What is your talent!"
Zhou Bai pondered for a moment and then asked.
"S-grade Profound Heaven Spirit Eyes!"
Shen Ninger said slowly, her gaze still looking at Zhou Bai softly, "My talent can scout the surroundings, but I lack powerful offensive means, so I want to find someone to cooperate with!"
Zhou Bai understood upon hearing this. Indeed, the vast majority of spirit eye talents were of the support type and required reaching the later stages to become powerful.
"Cooperation is fine!"
Zhou Bai thought for a moment and then said.
In this Dou Xing Forest, danger lurked everywhere. If he had a partner to cooperate with, it would indeed be much safer.
And from their Azure Bird Academy, he was the only one participating; there were no other partners at all.
Right now, this Shen Ninger was someone he could try working with.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou Bai! I will definitely work hard and scout the locations of fierce beasts for you to avoid danger!"
Seeing that Zhou Bai had agreed to her request, Shen Ninger's face was full of joy.
"Brother Zhou Bai, here's this for you!"
As she spoke, Shen Ninger took out a small box from the pocket at her waist.
After opening the small box, Shen Ninger handed the medicinal pill inside to Zhou Bai.
"What is this!"
Zhou Bai's brow furrowed slightly.
"blood spirit pill, a medicine that can recover Qi and Blood Power!"
Shen Ninger replied.
"Brother Zhou Bai, this is a pill from the Pill Spirit Sect. It's even grape-flavored, it's very tasty!"
Shen Ninger took out a pill, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.
"blood spirit pill... I didn't expect you to actually be carrying blood spirit pills!"
Seeing the girl's Qi and Blood Power recover significantly, Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat.
The format of this selection match was too sudden; Zhou Bai hadn't had time to prepare much at all.
"Mm-hmm, I'm a qualified little support. I'll definitely support Brother Zhou Bai well..."
Shen Ninger patted her chest and said with her head held high.
Zhou Bai automatically ignored her words and then also took a bite of a blood spirit pill.
"As expected of a blood spirit pill worth a million each, it really is worth the price!"
Feeling the Qi and Blood Power rapidly recovering within his body, Zhou Bai's eyes lit up.
This kind of powerful recovery speed would have a very strong effect during combat.
In just a few breaths, Zhou Bai's Qi and Blood Power had recovered by half and was still rapidly restoring.
"Where are the fierce beasts? Take me there now!"
Zhou Bai then said to Shen Ninger.
Since he had recovery pills, Zhou Bai intended to have a good hunting spree.
"One kilometer to the west, there are over a dozen third-order fierce beasts!"
Shen Ninger immediately began scouting for Zhou Bai.
"Let's go!"
Hearing this, Zhou Bai picked up Shen Ninger and sped toward the west using Shadow Step.
Being embraced by Zhou Bai, a flash of astonishment passed through Shen Ninger's eyes, and a hint of a blush appeared on her delicate face.
She struggled gently, seemingly wanting to break free.
But Zhou Bai thought Shen Ninger was afraid, so he held her even tighter.
Sigh, it's not a real body anyway, just let him...
Shen Ninger thought to herself.
