Chapter 93: Nana’s voice

“Xuanyu.” Astonished, Qian Lei looked at him and thought to himself, ‘He wouldn’t go and cause trouble, would he? It’s only the first day at school and this was already his second time eh! Also, he had eaten his fill.’

Lan Xuanyu then said, “Don’t worry, I’ll ask my friend to help.”

The canteen wasn’t big and he reached Ye Lingtong’s side in a few steps. When they felt that his presence, two of Ye Lingtong’s teammates lifted their heads and seemed a little suspicious.

“Ye Lingtong, I would like to speak to you alone,” Lan Xuanyu said.

Silence had filled their surroundings at the moment he said that and Lu Qianxun, who was next to Ye Lingtong furrowed his brows. “Just have your talk here.”

Lan Xuanyu glanced at him and said, “I want to speak to Ye Lingtong. It is a secret between the both of us.”

“Ooo…” The students around them let out a gasp of surprise and some even started giggling. Someone even whistled.

“Private secret ah!” Jin Xiang chuckled and stood up. “Class Monitor, I’m not someone who causes trouble, but Lan Xuanyu wants to sabotage your group eh! I don’t know if you have a temper but I simply can’t stand it anymore.”

“Jin Xiang, why are you yelling?” Ye Lingtong stood up abruptly and glared at Jin Xiang before she pulled Lan Xuanyu outside.

Lu Qianxun was in a daze while Ye Lingtong and Lan Xuanyu had already made their way out.

He placed his cutlery down and he didn’t look very pleased.

…

Outside of the canteen.

“What is it?” Ye Lingtong looked at Lan Xuanyu and asked.

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “Do you remember how your spirit would lose effectiveness whenever we sparred previously?”

“Did you call me out just to mock me?” Ye Lingtong’s face darkened.

“No, I’m just thinking if your spirit became ineffective when it came into contact with mine because we were fighting against each other then. If so…” Lan Xuanyu said.

He tried to speak but the canteen door was opened with Lu Qianxun walking in with his teammate.

“As the saying goes, ‘When eating, do not converse; when in bed, do not speak.’ Lan Xuanyu, don’t interfere with our group’s lunch, wait till our classes resumes tomorrow.” He pulled Ye Lingtong as he spoke and walked into the canteen.

Ye Lingtong knitted her brows. “Why are you pulling me?”

Lu Qianxun glanced at her and Ye Lingtong’s expression actually turned gentler from this brief exchange. She then turned to Lan Xuanyu and said, “We’ll talk in class.” After which, she went back with Lu Qianxun.

At this moment, Qian Lei and Liu Feng walked out in a rush. They saw Lu Qianxun walking out and were afraid that Lan Xuanyu would be bullied. Then, they coincidentally bumped into Lu Qianxun pulling Ye Lingtong back on their way out.

“What happened? Are you out of love?” Qian Lei said.

This time, it was Lan Xuanyu’s face that darkened. “What love, huh? How old are you? Don’t spout such nonsense. I just wanted to ask Ye Lingtong whether her spirit lost its effectiveness previously when it came into contact with me because we were fighting against one another. I wanted to know if it would increase her spirit’s effectiveness if we were working with each other but she was dragged back in before I could even ask.”

Qian Lei giggled and said, “They are a team and are probably afraid that you would take her away. I have to say that you don’t have a very high EQ; you pulled her away in front of her team and the class monitor, anyone would be unhappy about that. Also, even if her spirit could be enhanced by you, why would you do that? She’s not in our team!”

Liu Feng then said, “Let’s try out this enhancement skill of yours, if it’s true, we must keep it a secret; we’re at the bottom now.”

Lan Xuanyu really didn’t think so much, he was just curious about whether his spirit could assist all types of spirits. Listening to them, he immediately understood their current situation. ‘That’s right! Even if I could really assist Ye Lingtong, there shouldn’t be any chance of that happening. After all, she isn’t in the same group as me and we don’t have good relations. She has her comrades.’

“Alright, I won’t ask her then. We’ll continue our practice tomorrow.”

Back in the dormitory, meditating.

As Lan Xuanyu was mentally exhausted, he got into the state of meditation very quickly but what he didn’t know was that on another planet, Nana and Dong Qianqiu had been waiting for them to summon her again.

The next day of lessons, learning, and extra classes was fulfilling for Lan Xuanyu as well, and when he returned for his last task for the day, he found Liu Feng and Qian Lei waiting for him impatiently.

“Let’s go, training ground!”

With yesterday’s experience, they couldn’t wait to continue training with Lan Xuanyu to try out his enhancement effect.

Things were different now with the third member, Lan Xuanyu, joining the unreliable duo so how could they not be excited about it?

Since they got into the Elite Junior Class, who would want to be eliminated so easily? They had to seize the opportunity when it appears and they yearned for this opportunity more than anyone.

They entered the simulation pod and went to the training ground once again. It was still the same junior assessment that costs one Soul coin.

“Xuanyu, do you think that girl would come if we summoned her?” Qian Lei asked worriedly. He had instances where the other party he summoned simply retreated after seeing the situation. His Gate of Summoning basically didn’t have any way to make them fight in his stead.

“Give it a try,” Lan Xuanyu said. “And if I can strengthen Liu Feng, the three of us may be enough to pass the test already. What’s the passing rate for this assessment in our class?”

“Only 9 teams had passed so far,” Qian Lei said.

Lan Xuanyu then asked, “…how many teams are there?”

“Ten teams!” Qian Lei said in a matter-of-factly manner. “No, all ten teams should have passed already since we passed yesterday.”

Lan Xuanyu was speechless. So only their Dorm 333 hasn’t passed the test previously!

“You win. Get ready, it’s starting.”

The light flickered and three of them found themselves in the colosseum once again. Qian Lei began his summoning without delay and Lan Xuanyu released the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass before grabbing onto its frame. On the other side, Liu Feng stood ready with Lan Xuanyu grabbing his arm.

“I feel it,” Liu Feng called out excitedly. He and Qian Lei were very different; he was usually quite introverted and didn’t like to talk much, but he was actually really strong. Ever since he joined the Elite Junior Class, they had always been at the last spot so he wasn’t in a good mood. They finally had a chance for a breakthrough so how could he not contain his excitement?

“It’s here, it’s here. Teacher, the summoning is here.”

The Gate of Summoning had just activated and there was a voice of excitement on its other end.

Dong Qianqiu was dressed in a white top and a white skirt as she walked out from the gate with her long dark blue hair.

The moment she stepped out, she looked at Lan Xuanyu and asked urgently, “Hey, are you Lan Xuanyu?”

Lan Xuanyu was taken aback by her question. “How did you know?”

“Haha, you really are! Teacher, can you hear me talking? He’s really called Lan Xuanyu!” Dong Qianqiu quickly shouted into the gate.

Lan Xuanyu was stunned because, at this exact moment, an utterly familiar voice came through the gate. “Xuanyu, it’s me.”

Lan Xuanyu would never forget this voice and that’s why he was surprised and overjoyed at the same time. “Teacher Nana?”

Nana then said, “It’s really you! What a coincidence, we could actually communicate this way!”

“Teacher Nana, where are you?” Lan Xuanyu asked in surprise.

“I’m at the Heaven Dou Planet and Qianqiu is my student. I’m a teacher here,” Nana replied.

“Then, then could you come over through the Gate of Summoning? I miss you so much!” Lan Xuanyu’s eyes started to redden.

Nana went silent for a while as there was an indescribable emotion surging inside her. “I can’t, this space gate is too unstable. If I went over, it would cause chaos in space and that would be troublesome.”
