42: Don’t wait until next time! (Must watch!)
Bai Mo inquired and found the "Ice-type" area.
There were quite a few Ice-type blade skills; Beiling Academy's foundation was truly vast!
Bai Mo didn't go inside to search; instead, there was a row of display screens outside the Ice-type area where he could search, and there were also introductions and demonstration videos.
If he found something suitable, he could pick it up at the designated location and rent it at the front desk. Of course, it cost academic credits. After seven days, for each additional day, 1% of the rented blade skill's credits would be deducted, with a minimum of 1 credit per day and a maximum of 100 credits per day.
So, the longer he rented, the more academic credits would be deducted.
Bai Mo stood in front of one of the display screens and searched for a while, only looking at blade skills that cost 100 academic credits.
After all, he only had 100 academic credits, and he couldn't afford anything more expensive.
There were still many 100-credit blade skills, clearly all prepared specifically for "new students."
Bai Mo searched for a bit and finally chose a blade skill called: [Ice Ring Slash].
[Ice Ring Slash] is a Yellow-tier blade skill, simple and clear: it's about unleashing a ring-shaped blade aura around oneself.
It's a common blade skill, yet it has its own unique spiritual power circulation.
He'd make do with it for now; mastering enough blade skills was better than knowing nothing at all.
Bai Mo paid 100 academic credits to purchase this blade skill to practice.
He aimed to master it today; it shouldn't... be difficult, right?
Bai Mo didn't know how his talent was in blade skills; comprehension was something that couldn't be tested at all.
Never mind, he'd learn it first and then see. He hoped he had some talent in this area, otherwise, he'd just have to "cheat."
Anyway, [Shi Jie · Bing Lun Wan] came with its own blade skills, and his system also sold blade skills. System-produced items were definitely high-quality! Bai Mo had great confidence in such a magnificent creation as the system.
Therefore, he wasn't worried at all about whether his comprehension was good or bad.
"Eh?" Just as Bai Mo was retrieving [Ice Ring Slash], a woman beside him saw Bai Mo: "Hello! You're Bai Mo, right?"
"Hmm?" Bai Mo heard someone "hitting on him" and looked at the other person in confusion. When he saw her clearly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The other person was very beautiful.
She was nearly one meter seventy-five tall, with a slender waist, long legs, fair skin, and a pair of foxy eyes that looked very alluring.
However, there wasn't a trace of worldliness about her; instead, she carried a hint of purity, and this combination created a very impactful feeling.
"You are?" Bai Mo looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.
"My name is Zhang Qier, I've seen your previous matches!" Zhang Qier looked at Bai Mo and said with a smile.
"Oh~ And then? Is there something you need?" Bai Mo nodded, then asked.
...You really don't know how to chat!" Zhang Qier looked at Bai Mo with a resentful expression.
...If you have something to say, say it. If not, I'm busy..." Bai Mo had an "emmm" look.
"Alright, alright, alright!" Zhang Qier rolled her eyes: "I do have something to find you for, though it's nothing big. I just wanted to get to know you! I heard you're Spirit Language Department, what a coincidence, I am too!"
At this moment, a girl in a certain spot saw this scene, her pupils constricted, and then she immediately turned and ran.
Soon after, she found Wen Yu.
"Wen Yu! You still have the mind to cultivate! Your home is about to be stolen!!!"
"???" Wen Yu looked up at the girl in confusion: "Zhang Ling, what's wrong? Why are you so flustered! What do you mean 'stolen home'?"
"Oh, my! Your guy has been targeted by a vixen! Quick, quick, quick! He's over by the Library! Hurry up and go!" The girl Wen Yu called Zhang Ling quickly pulled Wen Yu, trying to make her leave.
"Don't rush, don't rush! Take it easy!" Wen Yu said helplessly.
What 'stolen home' or not, Wen Yu didn't believe it at all. That guy, Bai Mo? Stolen home? Give me a break! She almost didn't succeed even when she made a move, it was very difficult! And he'd be 'stolen home'?
If it were that easy to be 'stolen home,' she would have already made it to base, alright!
It was just this girl Zhang Ling who was really anxious!
Zhang Ling was someone Wen Yu met at Beiling Academy. Through their interactions these past few days, they had become good friends.
Although Wen Yu and Bai Mo often stuck together, they still had a lot of personal space.
If there was nothing specific to do, they would each do their own thing.
Of course, if they missed each other, they would either video call or meet directly.
The situation between Wen Yu and Bai Mo was a relationship beyond friendship, but not yet full-blown romance.
Wen Yu had made her move, but she felt Bai Mo was too dense! He hadn't reacted even after all that!
Now it was good, they were in the same academy, and Bai Mo's potential was also good. Wen Yu planned to confess directly after a while, or after graduating from the academy!
To "marry" Bai Mo home!
Yes! Marry him home! Hmph hmph! Wen Yu had already imagined that moment and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"???" Zhang Ling heard Wen Yu's laughter and turned her head to look at Wen Yu in confusion: "No way! Wen Yu! Are you alright? Your home is about to be stolen, and you're still laughing?"
"Oh, relax!" Wen Yu said helplessly, letting Zhang Ling drag her towards the Library.
Over at the Library.
Hearing Zhang Qier say she wanted to get to know him.
Bai Mo blinked, seemingly coming back to his senses: "Oh! Okay, now we're acquainted. If there's nothing else, I'll be going!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Zhang Qier looked at Bai Mo's reaction, her face full of self-doubt. Had her charm really fallen to such a level?
She wasn't trying to pursue Bai Mo; she knew Bai Mo already had a "partner." She wasn't here specifically to steal him away.
Zhang Qier was indeed here to get to know Bai Mo.
Because they were both Spirit Language Department, Zhang Qier knew how strong the Spirit Language Department was, and Bai Mo's Spirit Language Department was clearly very special!
Of course, she wanted to get to know him and expand her network.
More friends, more paths! This was Zhang Qier's standard for dealing with people.
Of course, not just anyone could be a friend; Zhang Qier had her own specific judgment criteria!
Clearly, Bai Mo was the one who "met the standard," which was why Zhang Qier chose to get to know him.
She had been observing Bai Mo these past few days and already had this intention; she just hadn't expected to coincidentally run into him here.
So she decided to proactively introduce herself to Bai Mo.
Zhang Qier saw Bai Mo genuinely turning to leave and quickly stopped him: "Since we're acquainted, we should at least exchange contact information!"
"Emmm... Next time! Definitely next time! We'll exchange when we meet again! I have something urgent to do!" Bai Mo quickly said, then let out an "Aiya!" and his face became very anxious: "I forgot, I have an emergency! I have to go now! Next time, okay! Definitely next time!"
Zhang Qier anxiously called out: "Oh! No! Don't say next time!"
