"Alright, let’s wrap up today’s practice here."
Coach Wei returned the practice sword to the rack and said with a smile, "I reckon it won’t be long before your swordsmanship surpasses mine."
These words ca from the heart.
Qin Tian’s talent in swordsmanship was extraordinarily astounding; one day’s practice for him equaled years for others.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he truly couldn’t imagine such a terrifying genius in swordsmanship existing in this world.
"Thank you, Coach."
Qin Tian bowed slightly.
In recent days, Coach Wei’s assistance had been imnse, not only in teaching swordsmanship but also in helping him fully explore his potential and beco familiar with the bodily changes brought by the [Night Demon] and [Purple Sky Thunder Body].
"Are you going to the Star Elent Tower for cultivation later?" Coach Wei drank so water and casually asked.
"Not today."
Qin Tian shook his head and said, "I have dinner plans outside the island tonight."
"Outside the island? You finally decided to go out?"
Coach Wei raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.
In his eyes, Qin Tian was soone extrely focused, with little interest in any form of leisure or entertainnt.
When other students in the Special Warfare Squad lazed around, indulged, or partied, Qin Tian was either in class, reading in the library, cultivating at the Star Elent Tower, or seeking him out for sparring.
So young, yet living like an ascetic monk.
"Yes, soone invited to dinner." Qin Tian stated honestly.
"Haha, it’s not easy to lure you out, is it?"
Coach Wei laughed heartily. Over the recent days, he had seen too many people trying to get close to Qin Tian, both n and won, with various tactics, yet none succeeded before Qin Tian.
Initially, he thought Qin Tian was a cold and aloof noble family descendant without any warmth, but after so interaction, he discovered that Qin Tian was outwardly cold yet inwardly warm. Once familiar, he would gradually reveal his true self.
"They are my teammates from the mission at Twilight Ridge, Zhu Tianyou, Xiong Gang, and Huang Xiaojia." Qin Tian explained.
"Those three, huh~"
Having taught the Special Warfare Squad for over half a year, Coach Wei naturally rembered every student.
"Alright then, go take a shower, and you can head out. I rember your flying device isn’t in school, so go to the South Court to rent one. You get a discount with your student ID."
"Okay."
Qin Tian nodded; flying devices were akin to cars from the previous era, commonly seen in life, and neither renting nor purchasing them was too costly, affordable for ordinary people.
...
Back at the dormitory, Qin Tian quickly took a shower and then dressed in black to head to the South Court.
"Hello, I would like to rent a flying device to go to the Junhao Restaurant outside the island."
Qin Tian said to the uniford employee.
The employee entered the address into a special device while asking:
"One-way or round-trip?"
"One-way."
"One-way, 70."
"I’m a student."
"Student, 50."
"Alright."
Qin Tian transferred 50 yuan, and after many years, he once again enjoyed the benefits of being a student.
The last ti, it seed, was using a student ID to eat at Haidilao.
The flying device he rented was small, only accommodating two people, roughly the size of a compact car, and relatively simple in appearance. Still, it was inexpensive, with built-in smart driving functions.
After takeoff, he didn’t need to control it; the flying device would automatically head to the destination.
Whoosh~~
The flying device ascended rapidly, spewing a stream of air from the rear as it flew into the distance.
Qin Tian leaned back in the chair, looking down through the window, a peculiar gleam flashing in his eyes.
In less than a minute, another flying device rapidly ascended, flying off the small island.
...
"Hello, sir, do you have a reservation?"
"Yes, Xiangxue Private Room."
"Alright, please co this way."
Led by the etiquette lady, Qin Tian walked into the private room.
"Brother Tian!"
"Brother Tian!"
Xiaopang, Xiong Gang, and Huang Xiaojia had already been waiting in the private room for a long ti. Seeing Qin Tian enter, they imdiately stood up and greeted him joyfully.
Qin Tian nodded slightly, glancing around the room.
The entire private room was square-shaped, small but exquisitely and orderly arranged, with a few finely frad ancient paintings on the walls. A rustic round wooden table sat in the center, its texture clear, with a soft luster.
A uniquely designed chandelier on the ceiling cast soft and warm light, its glow filtering through the carved lampshade, projecting dappled shadows on the floor and walls, creating a cozy and elegant atmosphere in the room.
"Brother Tian, sit down."
Xiaopang pulled out the main seat’s chair, and after Qin Tian sat down, they took their seats one by one.
"How are your injuries healing?" Qin Tian asked.
"I’m fine, just a bit of swelling on the face, a bit of ointnt, and it’ll be fine in a day," Xiaopang said with a grin.
"I healed quickly too."
Xiong Gang said, "My family hired a Light Elent Spiritualist, and with one magic spell, my broken bones healed."
Hearing this, Qin Tian couldn’t help but feel a sense of wonder.
In this world, people could enjoy the conveniences brought by technology and spiritual energy in all aspects, like travel, entertainnt, dical care, and education.
Life was rich and colorful, and everyone could have many choices.
In the previous world, so terminal illnesses might only require a bit of dication or a minor surgery to be cured here, greatly extending ordinary people’s lifespan.
Of course, everything had its upsides and downsides.
If ordinary people were unfortunately caught in the crossfire of spiritualists’ battles, they would suffer undeserved disasters.
"Brother Tian, before the dishes arrive, the three of us have sothing to say."
Xiaopang glanced at Xiong Gang and Huang Xiaojia and began to speak:
"Brother Tian, initially, when the three of us learned we were going to be teaming up with you, we were quite nervous. After all, since you joined the class, you’ve always been a bit... a bit cold, and we were worried we wouldn’t be able to get along well with you."
"But once we got to know you, we realized you’re soone outwardly cold yet inwardly warm. When danger arises, you always quietly stand in front of us, letting us rest while you stay on guard at night. And after we were captured by the vampires, it was you who rescued us, even..."
"...shedding so much blood."
Upon these words, the three couldn’t help but recall the scene at the ti, as dark red blood stained the ground, and Qin Tian, covered in blood, walked out of the forest, throwing the vampire’s corpse to the ground. He calmly uttered the words that shook their hearts.
"Nothing happened."
At this mont, Huang Xiaojia’s eyes imdiately turned red, and Xiaopang and Xiong Gang also felt a sting in their noses.
Xiaopang took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed to Qin Tian:
"Brother Tian, thank you, we truly appreciate your care for us."
Xiong Gang and Huang Xiaojia also stood up and bowed deeply.
Seeing the genuine expressions of the young people before him, Qin Tian smiled, stood up, and said:
"I accept your gratitude, my... three teammates."
Teammates~
The three exchanged glances, and joy imdiately appeared in their eyes.
