Chapter 10

That evening, in the bathing room of the Luo family tower.

The hot water sprayed over his body, washing away the sweat and fatigue, making him feel particularly refreshed. However, what made Luo Feng even more elated was the battle with Gavin that day; it had been incredibly exhilarating.

Heh heh, I did it, I beat Gavin up good!

Teachers, I don't know who you are, but I am truly grateful to you.

You have changed my fate!

If it weren't for those crazy old men I met in the spiritual world, I wouldn't have been able to pass the entrance exam. I would have lived a muddled life, and Qiqi would have suffered along with me.

But now, I have the strength to pursue my own life!

Luo Feng clenched his fists, feeling the flow of primordial energy in his body, which made him feel incredibly fulfilled.

After washing up and changing into clean clothes, he felt thoroughly refreshed.

Qiqi had already tidied up after dinner and was waiting for him with a steaming cup of barley tea. The little maid was always so considerate, always making sure Luo Feng drank some tea after meals to aid digestion.

Seeing Luo Feng come out of the bath, Qiqi immediately greeted him, "Young Master, have a cup of tea."

Luo Feng nodded and took the tea, "Sure, Qiqi, sit down."

They both sat down at the table. The little maid had a smile on her face, and Luo Feng was curious, "Qiqi, what's wrong?"

Qiqi smiled, "Young Master, I just feel that everything is so wonderful, it's like a dream. It's really, really great."

More than a month ago, Luo Feng was still lying in bed, unconscious, and Qiqi was worried about the nutrient pills, in a very difficult situation. At that time, she could never have imagined that Luo Feng would wake up, become so powerful, and even defeat Gavin, earning the official recommendation for the Tianwei City entrance exam, with a bright future ahead. So she was genuinely happy for Luo Feng, smiling all afternoon.

It doesn't matter how Young Master became strong; what matters is that his efforts and persistence have finally paid off!

Feeling her concern, Luo Feng felt a warmth in his heart. He put down the teacup and walked over, hugging the little maid tightly, "Qiqi, this is just the beginning. We will become even better, better!"

"Really, Young Master, we will become even better?" Qiqi leaned against him, her eyes filled with longing. The current situation was already a world apart from before. She had already seen hope and didn't dare to ask for more.

Looking down at the beautiful face of the little maid, he found her exceptionally lovely and charming. Luo Feng's mood had also changed; he was no longer troubled and depressed. He couldn't resist leaning in.

"Um, Young Master, you..." Before she could finish, her tender lips were already captured by Luo Feng, leaving her unable to speak.

Luo Feng's tongue explored Qiqi's mouth, like a diligent bee greedily gathering the sweet nectar. He wasn't satisfied with just that; his right hand, which was holding Qiqi, began to wander, moving from her back, over her slender waist, and finally resting on her firm, round buttocks, feeling the vitality and incredible elasticity of the young girl.

Qiqi gradually lost herself, her beautiful eyes becoming hazy, as if covered by a mist. She wrapped her arms around Luo Feng's neck, taking the initiative.

Both of them were in their adolescence, a time of curiosity and intense interest. They relied on each other for survival and had deep feelings for each other, making the kiss particularly passionate, with no sign of stopping and the potential to go further.

But things didn't develop as expected. Qiqi, perhaps thinking of something, managed to push Luo Feng away, her face flushed and her breathing heavy, "I'm sorry, Young Master, not now. Studying is important. I, I would be harming you."

As everyone knows, this age is the golden time for human cultivation. Indulging in physical pleasure can greatly affect a martial artist's future achievements. So even though Qiqi was willing, she still refused Luo Feng.

Luo Feng naturally understood her good intentions. Moreover, Qiqi was a rapidly improving mage. If they had really become intimate, her mindset would have changed, and she might not have been as focused on her magic studies.

Since Qiqi would eventually be his, there was no need to rush. Luo Feng chuckled, "It's okay, Qiqi."

"Then, Young Master, if there's nothing else, I'll go now. You must be tired, so rest early." Qiqi said and ran out of Luo Feng's room like a frightened kitten.

Of course, she wasn't afraid, but rather embarrassed. This was the first time she had been so intimate with Luo Feng. Although they hadn't crossed the line, it had a significant impact on her, especially when she thought about how proactive she had been.

Young Master, he won't think I'm a wanton person, will he?

Luo Feng looked in the direction she had disappeared, a smile on his face.

Shy girls are really cute!

Two days later, Qiqi's magic exam began. Compared to martial artists, mages had an additional written test. Magic studies are complex, and understanding formulas and laws can greatly affect a mage's achievements.

While Qiqi was taking the written test, Luo Feng waited outside the examination room. After more than two hours, Qiqi appeared from the exam room. Luo Feng went up to her and asked, "Qiqi, how did it go?"

The results of the written test were announced immediately after the exam. Although Luo Feng knew that Qiqi had always been talented in magic, he still wanted to know her score right away.

Qiqi lowered her head, biting her lower lip, and didn't say anything. Luo Feng was surprised, thinking Qiqi might have done poorly.

But he still comforted her, "It's okay, Qiqi. The written test is only a small part of the overall evaluation. Don't be sad."

Qiqi looked up, her expression completely changed, and she smiled sweetly, "Young Master, I got a perfect score on the written test!"

A perfect score?

Luo Feng was stunned, then realized he had been tricked by Qiqi.

Qiqi seemed very excited, "Young Master, I never got a perfect score in the training camp's mock exams, usually only around ninety points. But after you taught me those magic theories, I suddenly found the laws and formulas I was learning to be very simple, and I ended up getting a perfect score."

"Getting a perfect score and acting like that, making me worry for nothing!" Luo Feng teased, then laughed, "Well, Qiqi, you even tricked Young Master. Do you know what naughty children usually get?"

Qiqi knew Luo Feng was just joking but pretended to be afraid, "Ah, Young Master, how will you punish me?"

"I will spank your bottom, but not too hard, just like the other night!" Luo Feng's words were ambiguous, making Qiqi's face turn red. That night, Luo Feng had kissed her, and his "magic hands" had roamed over her firm, round bottom.

She glared at Luo Feng, "Young Master, you're so bad!"

"Hehe, who can blame me when my Qiqi is so beautiful!"

"..."

The results of the magic exam were as expected. Qiqi scored very high and received the official recommendation for the Tianwei City mage entrance exam, as well as the qualification for the Glory Pre-school Training Camp's magic department.

Among humans, those with magical talent are rare. According to statistics, the ratio of mages to martial artists in the Glory Federation is about one to five hundred. For a small city like Tianwei, having two mages in this year's youth magic training camp was quite remarkable, often with no competition at all.

The other mage was only a mid-level apprentice, while Qiqi was already a mid-level mage. The difference in titles meant they were not in the same league, so Qiqi's recommendation and qualification for the pre-school training camp were not in doubt. The goal was to achieve a higher score to secure a place in a good magic academy.

With her perfect score on the written test and a high score on the magic exam, Qiqi might even be noticed by the magic academy in the capital of the Glory Federation, the Holy City of Victoria.

The federation's efficiency was high, and about a week later, the two recommendation letters were delivered to Luo Feng and Qiqi.

In the following days, Luo Feng continued to diligently practice the Ancient Heaven-Reversing Technique.

Having broken through to the ninth stage of primordial energy and mastered the Arc Light Slash, Luo Feng now had the ability to go with Qiqi to the魔兽山脉 (Demon Beast Mountains) outside the town to hunt a few demon beasts, selling the materials to the demon beast market. With good luck, they could even get a few crystal cores.

Although the tuition for public academies was free, living expenses and accommodation fees still had to be paid. Additionally, if you wanted better cultivation conditions, extra expenses were inevitable. The scholarship from Tianwei City would soon run out, so it was necessary to earn more money during the holidays.

Thus, they continued until the time for the Glory Pre-school Training Camp was about to start. They packed their bags and set out.

Leaving the tower, Luo Feng looked back at the empty home, feeling a sense of nostalgia.

His parents had both died in the demon beast battlefield, their bodies never found. Now, with him and Qiqi going away to study, there was no one left at home, and there seemed to be nothing to hold onto.

And this small city, full of selfish and ungrateful people, even his fellow townspeople, he couldn't bring himself to like them.

This time, he didn't know if he would ever return.

Goodbye, Tianwei City!
