At this moment, Feng Lan suddenly spoke up from the side, “sister Feng Zhi, is there a misunderstanding between us? Just say it, don’t fight!”

Gu Yao looked at Feng Lan and recognized her as the second young miss of the Feng family who had awakened her fire attribute bloodline. He had a good impression of her.

Feng Zhi was rather cold-eyed. She was just thinking, under such a lively situation, how could Feng Lan bear not to stir up trouble?

Well, things that can not hold themselves back will never change their nature!

If she was really worried for her, why did she not come out and stop her before the fight? How hypocritical!

Feng Lan was dressed in a pink dress. Her voice was gentle but she pretended to be troubled as she looked at Feng Zhi and said, “elder sister’s body has been strong since she was young. Everyone in the family knows that you can compete with your elder brother in the family by relying on brute force. However, the school is not like the family, and the students won’t give in to you like how the family does…”

“If you are injured, how are you going to explain it to the family head?”

Feng Lan deliberately said this. The surrounding students could sense that something was wrong and pondered.

“Moreover, elder sister has a water bloodline. Right now, she can barely suppress brother Gu Yao by relying on brute force. However, as long as she starts to cultivate, everyone will pull apart the distance. When that time comes, elder sister’s leveling limit will be low and she won’t have enough skill points. Naturally, she won’t be a match for him…”

“It’s better not to make enemies for yourself and your life will be better!”

What a girl!

It sounded like she was worried for her every word, but she had to announce to everyone that Feng Zhi’s victory was all due to coincidence!

As long as she concentrated on cultivating, anyone would be able to trample her under their feet!

Feng Lan had really put in a lot of effort to suppress her!

“Second young miss Feng is really beautiful and kind-hearted!”

“That’s right! Compared to Feng Zhi, she is like heaven and earth!”

In the academy, there were many blind and deaf people. Feng Lan was quite pretty, and with the background of the Feng family and the title of a genius girl, she had a bunch of lackeys following her when she entered the Academy. At this moment, they were even echoing loudly and praising Feng Lan non-stop.

The corners of Feng Lan’s lips curled up, and she was somewhat pleased with herself.

Now, everyone in the East Summer Academy, and even the entire mysterious Sky Continent, knew that Feng Lan was the genius that was hard to come by in a hundred years!

She was the successor of the Feng family!

And Feng Zhi was not worthy to be compared to her!

This kind of thought made Feng Lan slowly swell up, and she even forgot to see the strength that Feng Zhi had displayed with her own eyes…

“Good sister, thank you for your concern.”

“In a month’s time, I’ll be training in the mystic realm. I’m looking forward to your performance too!”

Feng Zhi walked past her slowly and said in a low voice, “if there’s a chance, I won’t show any mercy!”

“!”

A chill ran down Feng Lan’s spine as she gritted her teeth!

…

In the dormitory, Feng Zhi’s mood was not affected by the farce during the day. She sat cross-legged, intending to absorb the spiritual energy.

Ye Meng pushed the door open and entered. She sat down beside her, her eyes filled with admiration and anticipation!

“I didn’t expect you to be so good at fighting! Gu Yao is an expert with a fire-type bloodline. He bragged that he was a genius youth, but he actually lost to you!”

“Why don’t you take care of me for the next few months?”

Ye Meng also believed Feng Lan’s story and thought that Feng Zhi’s skills were purely based on brute force. She bent her fingers and analyzed it seriously for her.

“Look, I’ve awakened a wood-type bloodline!”

“Although I’m weak now…”

Ye Meng did not want to admit it and smiled awkwardly. Soon, she patted her chest confidently. “But in the later stages, I’ll be stronger than your water-elemental bloodline, right? When that time comes, I’ll be the one protecting you!”

“We’ll help each other! We’re good classmates!”

Ye Meng blinked her starry eyes and held onto Feng Zhi’s arm expectantly.

She had a big heart, being bullied by those male classmates during the day and being able to regain her full vitality at night…

Feng Zhi was a little envious of her optimism and reminded her, “I’ve offended a lot of people now.”

“Are you sure that you’ll be able to protect me later on with your wood element bloodline?” she asked, imitating Ye Meng’s choice of words.

Ye Meng’s expression instantly fell, her eyes darting around as she ran to the table, holding a pen in her hand.

“We’ll think about it in the future! But for now, the two of us must be firmly tied together!”

“Teacher wants you to write a self-reflection, right? You don’t have to worry. I’m the best at it. I’ll help you!”

Ye Meng buried her head and started writing seriously.

Feng Zhi felt a wave of warmth in her heart. Although Ye Meng had used her to some extent, she was at least a ‘friend’ who had revealed her true feelings to her and did not hide anything from her. She recalled the time when she fought the magical beast yesterday, the wood element skill book that had dropped.

She opened her interspatial ring and took it out.

“Here, this is for you…”

Feng Zhi thought that since it was a wood element skill anyway, it was useless for her to keep it. She threw it to Ye Meng and said, “since you want to protect me, you have to cultivate well and don’t drag me down.”
