Chapter 407: The Pinnacle of Qi Gathering is So Awesome
It was only at this moment that Sun Yan turned his attention to Tang Rao.
"I know you, you're Tang Rao. Yun Xi doesn't like you at all, so please stop bothering her," Sun Yan said to Tang Rao.
Tang Rao: "..."
"Tang Rao, please leave Yun Xi alone, I don't want anyone to ruin what we have," Sun Yan continued.
Tang Rao had an incredulous look on his face, thinking, "Damn, kid, you've got some nerve."
"Who told you she doesn't like me?" asked Tang Rao.
"Do you need someone to tell you? Everyone in school knows! Yun Xi doesn't like you, and you just keep pestering her, Tang Rao, have you no shame?" Sun Yan spoke bluntly and without courtesy.
Tang Rao almost laughed out of irritation, thinking, "Wow, I haven't been back to school in so long, when did the number of idiots increase?"
"So you say she doesn't like me, is that right? What about this?" Tang Rao reached out his hand, took Yun Xi's hand, and interlocked their fingers.
Tang Rao grinned, wanting to give himself a thumbs up for being so clever.
Take a good look, everyone, even a master of flirting like me can't win over Yun Xi – just how tough is she to win over!
Yun Xi glanced at Tang Rao, rolled her eyes, but didn't pull her hand away.
She also wanted to get rid of Sun Yan; first, she didn't really know him, let alone understand him; second, Sun Yan wasn't her type at all, too pretentious... (As if Tang Rao wasn't pretentious himself.)
Sun Yan's eyeballs bulged in disbelief, with a hint of anger in his expression.
"Yun Xi, are you being forced by Tang Rao? It must be so! Tang Rao, I'll give you one last chance, leave Yun Xi alone," Sun Yan's face was frosty.
Tang Rao: "..."
He didn't even know what words to use to describe this Sun Yan. Was there a massive pit dug by an excavator in his brain? Could someone really be this foolish?
"Let me tell you, I don't have time to waste here talking nonsense with you. Move aside," Tang Rao gestured with his hand as if to say, "I'm giving you face by not hitting you."
If it weren't for the fact that you're a student, I would have smacked your head already.
Absolutely ridiculous.
"Tang Rao, it seems you took my warning as hot air. Don't blame me for this!" Sun Yan huffed angrily and then suddenly shouted loudly.
A surge of Spiritual Energy was released from him.
Tang Rao and Yun Xi looked at Sun Yan in shock, completely clueless as to what he was doing.
What? Do you plan to overpower me with your peak Qi Gathering level?
Speaking of which, the widespread access to Cultivation on Blue Star was Tang Rao's idea, and he was the one who ordered the publication of various Spiritual Techniques.
While the technology on Blue Star was decent, it would be elevated to another level after integrating with the technology from the Nine Realms and the Seventy-two Domains.
However, Martial Arts needed to develop as well.
Without the corresponding strength, even if you have powerful weapons, you wouldn't be able to use them.
The reason being, the weapons manufactured in the future would certainly incorporate Spirit Stones. If you can't harness Spirit Stones, you can't wield the weapons.
"Oh, peak Qi Gathering, how impressive," Tang Rao said mockingly.
"Good that you know!" Sun Yan said proudly.
He had reached the peak of Qi Gathering in less than a month, which was quite remarkable.
He inquired around and found out that in school, there were only a few who were even at the late stage of Qi Gathering, most were at the early stage, and some hadn't even reached Qi Gathering.
Sun Yan knew Tang Rao had some skills, but he assumed it was probably just mid to late stage of Qi Gathering. In comparison to himself, Tang Rao was still lacking.
"Do you know about the levels of Cultivation?" Tang Rao asked.
"Nonsense, of course I do – Qi Gathering, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Fusion, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Division, Union, Mahayana, Tribulation Crossing!" Sun Yan recited quickly.
"Do you know what level I am?" Tang Rao asked.
"Hmph, at the very most you're at the late stage of Qi Gathering!" Sun Yan said disdainfully.
Tang Rao: "..."
"Alright Sun Yan, I have no feelings for you, you should leave," Yun Xi told Sun Yan.
"I know you must be forced, don't worry Yun Xi, I will get this guy to leave," Sun Yan pointed at Tang Rao, his face still full of anger.
"Tang Rao..."
"I don't need to stoop to his level, where are we going?" Tang Rao asked.
"Let's go to the dormitory," Yun Xi said.
"Okay." Tang Rao nodded and then with a casual swipe, a space rift appeared.
The next moment, Tang Rao took Yun Xi into the space rift and vanished instantly.
Sun Yan was a bit dumbfounded, what the heck was going on?
What was that black crack just now?
Why did Tang Rao and Yun Xi suddenly disappear? How is that even possible!
...
For Tang Rao, Sun Yan was just a minor incident, he didn't need to take seriously a hot-headed teenager with an inflated sense of self-importance, it was pointless.
When Tang Rao reappeared with Yun Xi, they were already at the entrance of the girls' dormitory.
"Call me if you need anything," Tang Rao said.
"Okay, and by the way, you're not allowed to drop out, got it?" Yun Xi told him and then ran into the dormitory.
Tang Rao shrugged his shoulders.
Alright, if I'm not supposed to drop out, then I won't, sigh, but really, what's the difference between always skipping class and dropping out.
"Forget it, I should tell Xue Rui about it," Tang Rao muttered to himself, always missing classes but not dropping out, he should at least give Teacher Zhao a heads-up.
Tang Rao took out his phone and called Zhou Boxiong.
"Holy shit, Boss Tang, you're still alive?" Zhou Boxiong was very excited to receive Tang Rao's call.
"Rubbish, I have a question, where's Zhao Xuerui?" Tang Rao asked.
"Ah, in the classroom, teaching? Room 202, Boxue Building," Zhou Boxiong whispered.
"Okay." Tang Rao replied and hung up directly.
Five minutes later, Tang Rao appeared at the classroom door.
Inside the classroom, the sound of Teacher Zhao lecturing could be heard, but it sounded somewhat strange, her voice seemed tinged with a hint of grievance.
What happened?
"Creak..." Tang Rao pushed open the classroom door.
All eyes turned towards him.
Seeing Tang Rao, everyone was somewhat surprised, well, the perennial class-skipper had finally shown up.
Teacher Zhao also turned her head and was slightly taken aback upon seeing Tang Rao.
"Teacher Zhao, are you teaching?" Tang Rao said with a smile.
"Tang Rao, come in first, I have something to tell you after class," Zhao Xuerui said.
"You come out, I have something to tell you too," Tang Rao gestured to Zhao Xuerui.
"Are you the teacher or am I the teacher? Come in!" Zhao Xuerui seemed a bit angry.
"Ding..." Coincidentally, the bell for the end of the class rang.
Tang Rao shrugged: "Okay then, you come out, I have something to tell you."
Zhao Xuerui's face paled with anger.
This guy Tang Rao, he hasn't shown up at school for months, he's just...
Forget it, she couldn't find the right words to describe.
"Speak, what happened?" A few minutes later, Tang Rao and Zhao Xuerui stood at the window at the end of the corridor, and Tang Rao got straight to the point.
Zhao Xuerui was slightly taken aback.
"What happened to me? Instead, you think, how long have you not attended class?"
"I'm asking you, what exactly happened?" Tang Rao repeated, his eyes fixed on Zhao Xuerui.
