Chapter 3: Convenient Girlfriend

"I thought I was strong, but it turns out I'm just a big ant among ants." Yang Qi smiled bitterly.

No longer dwelling on it, Yang Qi calmed his mind and began to cultivate according to the records in the Vast Heaven Scripture. This was Yang Qi's first time cultivating. Having never cultivated before, he had no special power within his body. What he needed to do now was to quickly generate primordial energy within his body. Only a martial artist who possesses primordial energy can be considered a true martial artist.

As Yang Qi began to circulate his cultivation technique, everything around him seemed to come to a standstill. There was no sound, no movement, complete silence. Yang Qi could even feel that with each breath, every pore on his body seemed to open up instantly, allowing a stream of peculiar energy to flow into his body.

"Is this the primordial energy of heaven and earth?" Yang Qi thought to himself, feeling the warm current within his body.

Guided by Yang Qi, the warm current flowed through his meridians, completing a full cycle and returning to his dantian, leaving behind a pure thread of primordial energy.

"Did I succeed?" Yang Qi was stunned as he felt the thread of primordial energy in his dantian.

It was his first time cultivating, and he had successfully generated primordial energy. Even Huo Yang, who had spent several days, had only managed to generate primordial energy in his body, not to mention the time he had spent strengthening his body beforehand.

"Am I a genius?" Yang Qi wondered. Martial artists who could generate primordial energy on their first try were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns in the Heavenly Martial Continent.

Taking advantage of the momentum, with the experience from before, Yang Qi's cultivation progressed smoothly. Over an hour passed quickly as he cultivated.

"Hum~"

Suddenly, Yang Qi's dantian trembled slightly. In the next moment, the primordial energy of heaven and earth began to rapidly flow into his body. If someone were to see Yang Qi at this moment, they would be astonished to find him at the center of an invisible vortex of energy.

"Fourth-rank Martial Disciple." A moment later, Yang Qi opened his eyes, his face showing a hint of disbelief.

In just over an hour, Yang Qi had directly advanced from a third-rank Martial Disciple to a fourth-rank Martial Disciple, shocking even himself. Breaking through to the fourth rank in such a short time was truly astonishing.

"My cultivation process seems to be fine, but the speed of my advancement is a bit too fast." Yang Qi frowned.

If the martial artists of the Heavenly Martial Continent knew that Yang Qi was worried about his cultivation speed being too fast, many would be directly enraged to death.

Although he felt there was nothing wrong with his body, Yang Qi did not dare to continue cultivating. He decided to observe his condition first before making any decisions. Rapid advancement in cultivation was not necessarily a good thing.

Yang Qi got up and walked toward the dormitory. Just as he passed the lotus pond, his gaze was drawn to a white BMW parked by the roadside. The BMW itself was not unusual, but what truly surprised him was the large heart-shaped bouquet of roses on the hood.

The roadside was the girls' dormitory, and Yang Qi instantly understood the driver's intentions. At this moment, a few students had gathered to watch, and among them, a man and a woman could be seen talking.

Glancing at the BMW, Yang Qi gave a self-deprecating smile. His love had ended this way.

"Husband!" Suddenly, a pleasant voice came from the crowd, and the next moment, a white figure darted out, grabbing Yang Qi's right hand.

"What's going on?" Yang Qi was stunned.

Not just Yang Qi, but the onlookers were also stunned.

"Handsome guy, please help." At this moment, a weak voice sounded in Yang Qi's ear.

Only then did Yang Qi notice the girl holding his right hand. She had a fair oval face, wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt and black tight jeans, her long, slender legs and impressive figure were unmistakably those of a top beauty.

"Is he your boyfriend? How come I didn't know?" Before Yang Qi could speak, a handsome man in a white shirt walked over, his expression not very pleasant.

"Hou Lei, what are you to me? Do I have to report my affairs to you?" the girl said coldly.

A flash of anger crossed the handsome man's eyes, and he looked at Yang Qi.

"Kid, think carefully. Is he really your boyfriend?" the handsome man said with a menacing look.

"What do you think?" Feeling the hostile gaze, Yang Qi shrugged.

A sinister look flashed in the handsome man's eyes, and he said seriously, "Xinjie, don't think that by randomly finding someone to pretend to be your boyfriend, I'll give up. I won't. I'm sincere about you."

"Hou Lei, whether you believe it or not, he is my boyfriend, and I have no future with you!" the girl said coldly.

"Fine, fine~ Kid, you have the guts to meddle in my affairs!" Hou Lei laughed in anger, his gaze sweeping over Yang Qi before he drove away in the white BMW, disappearing from the crowd's view.

Seeing the main characters leave, the onlookers gradually dispersed. Before leaving, a few boys looked at Yang Qi with envy. Everyone appreciates beauty, and who wouldn't want a radiant woman by their side.

"They're gone." Yang Qi said calmly, looking at the dispersing crowd.

"Thank you." The girl withdrew her hand. "I'm Tang Xinjie."

"Yang Qi." Yang Qi said. "What happened just now? That Hou Lei seems pretty good, at least a rich second generation, right?"

"You don't even know him?" Tang Xinjie looked at Yang Qi in surprise, as if questioning whether he was from Earth.

"Is he famous?" Yang Qi touched his nose. He had never heard of Hou Lei before.

"Infamous, more like." A look of disgust flashed in Tang Xinjie's eyes. "Hou Lei, relying on his family's wealth, likes to toy with female students. Many girls in our school have been victims."

Yang Qi was slightly taken aback, not expecting Hou Lei to be so notorious. However, it seemed that Hou Lei had left a bad impression on Tang Xinjie, which explained why she had rejected his advances without hesitation.

"You're so beautiful, naturally, you'll have many admirers." Yang Qi smiled.

Tang Xinjie huffed. "Hmph~ You guys are all just superficial."

Yang Qi smiled bitterly, about to defend himself, but his gaze caught a slowly stopping Audi sedan not far away. Next, a familiar figure got out of the car.

Seeing the familiar figure, Yang Qi was taken aback, and at that moment, the other person also noticed him.

Luo Rong looked at Yang Qi, her expression turning sour. "Yang Qi, I've already made it clear to you. We've broken up. Please stop bothering me!"

"Kid, look at yourself. How could Rongrong ever like you?" The tall man who got out of the car said disdainfully before Yang Qi could speak.

Looking at Luo Rong and the tall man, Yang Qi suddenly laughed. He realized that these two were indeed a perfect match. Without saying anything, they immediately put on a superior attitude, truly a perfect pair.
