3: Xu Mengyao's contempt, Qi and blood are enhanced

The moment the girl entered, she noticed Li Ziyu waiting by the reception desk.

The instant she saw Li Ziyu, the girl’s pretty eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a hint of undisguised disgust flashed in her eyes.

Li Ziyu also noticed the two.

The girl was Xu Mengyao, who had just broken up with him in the classroom.

And Li Ziyu had a slight impression of the Short Hair Youth whom Xu Mengyao was holding by the arm.

He was Bai Haoran, the class monitor of Third High School’s Rocket Class, and his martial artist talent was also the best in the entire school; moreover, it was said that his family background was quite good.

No wonder Xu Mengyao was so eager to draw a clear line with him; it turned out she had seamlessly transitioned and latched onto a genius.

However, these were all matters of the original body and had nothing to do with him; Li Ziyu glanced at the two and then shifted his gaze.

"How did you know I would come here?"

"Didn't I tell you that I already broke up with you?!"

"Can you stop pestering me? We are destined not to be from the same world!"

Xu Mengyao walked directly towards Li Ziyu, stopped in front of him, her eyes undisguisedly filled with disgust, and she looked down at Li Ziyu with a look of disdain.

"Or are you here at Hong Su Martial Arts Hall to apply for a job?"

"But you can give up; with your 0.8 qi and blood, Hong Su Martial Arts Hall couldn't possibly want you. You're not even qualified to be a cleaner."

Xu Mengyao made no effort to hide her contempt, just waiting for Li Ziyu to blush scarlet in the next second and slink away like a stray dog.

After all, in the past, whenever she got angry, Li Ziyu would become extremely apprehensive.

But the scene she anticipated did not appear.

Li Ziyu did not get up, nor did he even respond to her; he merely glanced at her indifferently and then looked away.

Xu Mengyao was stunned by Li Ziyu's indifferent expression.

Then, as if provoked, she instantly became enraged from embarrassment.

How dare this lowlife, who was like a pug in her eyes, look at her with such an expression?

This was simply outrageous!!

Although she felt that Li Ziyu seemed different from before, his cold gaze made her feel an inexplicable chill.

But as soon as she thought of Li Ziyu's qi and blood value during the test, she prepared to reach out and pull him up.

The beautiful female clerk beside them looked back and forth between Xu Mengyao, Li Ziyu, and Bai Haoran.

As if understanding something, her gaze towards Li Ziyu became filled with pity.

The beautiful female clerk was just about to speak and persuade them.

Behind Xu Mengyao, Bai Haoran walked up, patted Xu Mengyao's shoulder, and said indifferently:

"Mengyao, we are no longer in the same class in the future, so why waste emotions on such a small person?"

"Instead of this time, why not think about how to use this week to properly improve your qi and blood?"

As he spoke, he gave Li Ziyu a cold glance, then paid him no further attention.

His gaze was like looking at insignificant weeds by the roadside.

"Hmm~ Bai Shao is right, I was too emotional."

"But Bai Shao, you are a genius of our Third High School. During the Martial Exam, you must take care of me, okay?"

Xu Mengyao's expression changed instantly, switching from a disdainful face towards Li Ziyu to a gentle smile, appearing like a demure young lady.

After speaking, she no longer paid attention to Li Ziyu, and holding Bai Haoran's hand, they walked away, deeply engrossed in each other.

Li Ziyu felt no ripple in his heart upon seeing this scene.

He just felt it was unfair to the original body.

However, this also had nothing to do with him.

Just then.

Inside the martial arts hall, a young man also wearing a school uniform walked out.

The young man was dejected, walked to the front desk, returned the room card to the beautiful female clerk, and then left Hong Su Martial Arts Hall.

As he walked, he sighed repeatedly:

"How can this be? How can this be? I clearly train diligently every day, so why isn't my qi and blood value increasing?"

"Student, the testing room is free. Would you like to take a test?"

Finally, the beautiful female clerk added to Li Ziyu.

"The testing fee is five hundred per hour."

"Test."

Li Ziyu pulled out a handful of loose change from his pocket, including five and ten yuan bills, and spilled them onto the counter at the reception desk.

The beautiful female clerk counted them, then handed him the room card that the previous young man had just put down.

She then pointed towards the inside of the martial arts hall.

"Walk straight to the end, the third room on the left, you can enter by swiping the card."

Li Ziyu nodded, picked up the room card, and turned to walk inside.

As he walked, he vaguely heard Xu Mengyao's disdainful voice from behind.

"The school's testing equipment is very accurate. Don't hold onto false hope, thinking that retesting will improve your qi and blood."

"Instead of wasting five hundred yuan on a test, you might as well buy yourself two new clothes."

Li Ziyu didn't pay attention, but a memory belonging to the original body vaguely flashed in his mind.

In a scene of heavy snowfall, the original body shivered from the cold, looking longingly at a certain men's down jacket in the display window, but ultimately chose a women's style.

As a birthday gift for Xu Mengyao.

...

Li Ziyu walked to the testing room indicated by the beautiful female clerk and swiped the card on the door.

With a 'ding' sound, the door opened automatically, revealing the interior layout.

This was a room about a hundred square meters, similar to a gym, with various weapons placed inside.

On the floor, there was also a thick layer of gray isolation mats.

And in the most conspicuous position in the center of the room, there was a three-meter-high, eggshell-shaped, silver-white device.

This was a standard qi and blood testing machine.

It was said that there were also small testing machines, which wealthy families usually kept at home, but Li Ziyu had never seen one.

They were too expensive, costing hundreds of thousands.

With his current impoverished status, being able to spend five hundred yuan to test at the martial arts hall was already his limit.

Walking to the testing machine, there was a protruding button on the outside.

Li Ziyu reached out and pressed the button.

A series of green lights flashed.

The silver-white testing machine, which seemed to be a single unit, split open from the center.

Then, slowly, like a clam opening its shell, it gradually opened to both sides.

Revealing the humanoid seat inside.

Around the seat, there were densely packed various soft tube-like things.

Li Ziyu had used a qi and blood testing machine once in school, so he was familiar with it.

He stepped inside; it was not crowded.

As Li Ziyu pressed the test button, various devices on the qi and blood testing machine successively connected to his head, chest, and limbs.

At the same time, a fine needle was inserted into his index finger, drawing a few drops of blood.

Although the destructive effect of thermal weapons on fierce beasts was greatly reduced, Daxia did not give up on scientific research.

In life and other fields, the technology on Blue Star actually surpassed that of his previous life by a large margin.

This testing machine was the best proof.

Although he didn't know the principle, the measured qi and blood fluctuation did not exceed 0.02.

A moment later, the test ended, and a light blue number was displayed on the screen in front of Li Ziyu.

0.93!

"If I remember correctly, my qi and blood was 0.8 during the school qi and blood test yesterday!

And now, it has increased by a full 0.13!?"

Li Ziyu's eyes widened slightly, and he subconsciously leaned his head closer to the screen, confirming it again.

No mistake, it was 0.93!

The fluctuation of this qi and blood meter test was very small, which meant that in just three hours, his qi and blood had increased by at least 0.13?

Don't let 0.13 seem insignificant; Li Ziyu knew how difficult it was to increase qi and blood.

If he wanted to increase his qi and blood by 0.13 through exercise, it would take at least a month!

In other words, his three hours were equivalent to others' one month of arduous cultivation!

"The system can not only kill mosquitoes to increase qi and blood; the amount of qi and blood increased must be determined by the strength of the creature killed."

"If I were to hunt fierce beasts, the increase in qi and blood would definitely be greater!"

"Should I go hunt fierce beasts?"
