59: Chapter 58 Sisters' Everyday Life
"That's right, Shuying Bao, you need to relax."
"My Aptitude is slightly inferior to yours, and I still managed to rank in the top ten at Xuanzong University."
"You will definitely be fine too."
Upon hearing this, Luo Shuying responded softly.
"Mhm, Sister Yufei, I will definitely make it into the top ten."
Speaking of which, she remembered something and asked curiously,
"I heard that before you entered the top ten, you had a match that you barely won. Was your opponent very strong?"
Quite a few days had passed since the match.
Given Chang Yufei's usual busy and tiring schedule, she should have forgotten about it long ago, but she recounted it clearly now.
"The person I fought that day was a Sword Cultivator. Normally, he should have fought with a sword."
"However, he didn't carry any weapon the entire time. Relying solely on his own condensed Sword Qi, he suppressed me step by step, making it hard to parry."
"His final move suddenly triggered an anomaly, resembling a scorching sun across the sky. The entire Secret Realm of the match was enveloped by his intense Sword Qi."
"Fortunately, that move consumed a massive amount of energy, and his spiritual power couldn't sustain it, so he finally ended up losing."
The scenes of that past match surfaced in Chang Yufei's mind, though she did not mention the truth that Li Fan had intentionally lost.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly, and she added another sentence.
"This Sword Cultivator is actually quite interesting."
However, Chang Yufei did not notice that Luo Shuying had seen the corners of her mouth lift.
Her usually cold eyes brightened a fraction, and she asked softly.
"A man?"
Chang Yufei didn't know why Luo Shuying was asking this, but she answered anyway.
"Yeah, about the same age as you."
Luo Shuying's eyes flashed upon getting the answer.
"No way, Sister Yufei, you could actually be interested in a man one day."
After she finished speaking, she put on an arrogant expression with a look of disdain and continued.
"Isn't it supposed to be 'men should just obediently roll over and kneel at my feet'?"
"Could it be that Sister Yufei has finally opened her mind?"
Seeing Luo Shuying imitate her so vividly and tease her, Chang Yufei responded without yielding.
"I recall that Shuying Bao had a little boyfriend just a few days ago. How come I haven't seen him around? Did you break up?"
These words did not stir any emotion in Luo Shuying; instead, she replied quite calmly.
"Mind your own business, you old innocent who has never even had a boyfriend!"
"Oh? Your cultivation has really improved; you actually dare to tease your sister? Take this spell!"
Thus, a soft spiritual light emitted from Chang Yufei's hands, and she and Luo Shuying began to frolic and play in the preparation room.
A moment later, the two stopped, and Chang Yufei caught her breath and said softly.
"You're much more relaxed now, right, Shuying Bao? It's just a match, after all."
Seeing Luo Shuying nod heavily, Chang Yufei returned to her own topic.
"Sigh, I said I wanted men to submit at my feet."
"But I never said I didn't want a man."
Luo Shuying, who was checking her opponent's information on the side, turned her head sharply upon hearing these words, her eyes wide.
"Sister Yufei, you're actually interested?"
Chang Yufei, who usually acted like a big sister, actually showed a coyness that was completely uncharacteristic, revealing a hint of shyness.
"Could it be that you really want your Sister Yufei to be single for her whole life?"
This little-woman demeanor of hers was not common.
Luo Shuying quickly put down the opponent's data in her hand, leaned in, and asked in a low voice.
"That Sword Cultivator? What's his name? What does he look like? Let me vet him for you."
Chang Yufei focused on recalling Li Fan's features and figure, unconsciously falling into deep thought.
Not long after, she suddenly snapped out of it, realizing she had fallen into Luo Shuying's trap.
She was clearly only slightly interested in Li Fan, but under Luo Shuying's guidance and questioning, she had subconsciously started to ponder the possibility of the two of them becoming Dao Companions.
She immediately pretended to be annoyed and spoke.
"I won't tell you, lest you steal my man."
Luo Shuying smiled inwardly; her goal was achieved!
Just a moment ago it was only interest, now she already considers him her man.
"Fine, fine, fine. Just tell me the name, that's okay, right?"
"He is called..."
Chang Yufei pondered for a moment.
Just as she was about to say the name, she was interrupted by a prompt in the preparation room indicating it was time to enter the arena.
It was Luo Shuying's turn to fight.
She immediately stood up to steady her mind and asked Chang Yufei to wait for her to finish the match before discussing it in detail.
In the spectator stands of the martial arts arena, Li Fan was looking at his System interface, bored.
He had been living quite comfortably these past few days: surfing the web, teasing Wen Xinran, going out to watch the fun, and sleeping soundly at night.
In short, he hadn't done a single thing related to cultivation.
Even so, relying on the Lay Flat AFK System, his hard training points had reached 530.
"After sleeping soundly once more, I'll be able to reach 600 hard training points and Breakthrough to the sixth level of Foundation Establishment."
Thinking this in his heart, the match on the field had already been decided, and it would soon be Luo Shuying's turn.
The atmosphere in the spectator area became increasingly heated, and all the Cultivators present were in high spirits, waiting for that peerless figure to appear.
Finally, black and white Qi could be seen connecting and rotating.
Luo Shuying tapped her toes and landed gracefully on the martial arts arena.
The noisy voices of the Cultivators in the spectator stands paused, becoming extremely quiet; one could hear a pin drop.
[Lay Flat AFK System offline, Mind-Clearing and Truth-Breaking System online]
[State of Mind has been improved!]
Li Fan also sighed.
As expected of Luo Shuying; with just this bearing and aura, she even made the System create one for herself.
At the same time, Luo Shuying's opponent also stepped onto the stage slowly.
This person's cultivation was far higher than Luo Shuying's, at the Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
However, he looked solemn and was fully prepared.
Xuanzhuan University was located high in the sky, and space was limited; to reduce the number of matches, battles were matched according to strength.
Therefore, although Luo Shuying had no previous ranking, her opponent this time was the ninth-ranked expert on the Foundation Establishment leaderboard.
Neither side dared to be arrogant, and the battle was on the verge of breaking out.
Off the field, Li Fan was also breaking into a sweat. In such duels between top-tier, high-Aptitude Cultivators, both sides usually comprehended Spirit Reflection, often deciding the outcome in a single move without many flashy things.
Sure enough, as soon as the battle began, their Spirit Reflections were projected onto the arena.
Luo Shuying possessed the Yin and Yang Soul-Fusion Spiritual Root.
It is said that after joining Xuanzhuan University, she also fused another extraordinary Spiritual Root.
Black and white Qi swept across the arena, transforming into a huge Yin and Yang grinding disk that instantly enveloped her opponent.
The opponent's Spirit Reflection realm was somewhat similar to Luo Shuying's; he possessed the top-grade Water and Fire dual Spiritual Root.
As the Spirit Reflection manifested, flames and torrents gushed from his sleeves.
In an instant, the power of Water and Fire collided with the Yin and Yang grinding disk, and the two sides were deadlocked for a time.
Black and white colors continued to clash with red and blue colors.
This was beyond Li Fan's expectations.
He didn't expect that Spirit Reflection, which usually decided the outcome in one move, had turned into a tug-of-war of spiritual power consumption.
One could only say that Xuanzhuan University's matching mechanism was truly precise, allowing these two evenly matched individuals to meet.
Outside the arena, just as Li Fan was watching the two of them fight with full concentration, someone slowly sat down in the empty seat beside him.
Li Fan thought it was Wen Xinmei returning after finishing her graduation procedures.
When he turned his head to look, it was another familiar person.
In the preparation room, Chang Yufei was still uneasy.
This counted as Luo Shuying's first official confrontation with someone.
So, she walked out of the room and came to the side of the arena.
Seeing that there was still an empty seat in the front row, she leaped and sat down.
Just as she was secretly rejoicing at her good luck, she suddenly noticed that the man beside her was quite familiar.
Turning to look, wasn't it the very person she had just been thinking about in her heart?
She couldn't help but exclaim out loud.
"Why are you here?"
