After hearing Guan Yue's words, Ouyang Shaohua felt her heart become chaotic. For a moment, she was at a loss for words, unable to find anything to say. She had not expected the breakup to come so quickly. They were not ready for this. So, she didn't know what to say and simply lowered her head, standing beside Guan Yue.
Time passed, one hour after another.
Their hearts gradually cooled from warmth because after dawn, they would have to part ways. They would not meet again for a year, and even then, their reunion would last only a few days before they would be separated forever. Was fate truly so cruel? Did everything have to end before it even began?
It was Ouyang Shaohua who spoke first. She took out something from her belongings and handed it to Guan Yue. "Guan Yue, this is the token of our Ouyang Family. Wear it as if I am with you. If you ever have the chance to go to Imperial Capital Nanyang City, visit my family and tell my parents that I am doing well here, especially because I have you as a friend. If you need anything, they will help you when they see this token."
Ouyang Shaohua's expression was particularly serious, as if she were entrusting Guan Yue with something very important. Guan Yue nodded repeatedly without hesitation and took the token she offered him. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a gold shield weighing about five taels, exquisitely crafted with intricate patterns.
Suddenly, Ouyang Shaohua smiled. "Guan Yue, do you know that I won a thousand taels of gold betting for you in the Arena? This is my first gamble and will be my last in this lifetime."
Then, as if she had made a significant decision, her face flushed. "Guan Yue, please hug me. No matter how far you go, remember that here at Qilin Academy, there is a silly girl waiting for your return."
Guan Yue gently embraced Ouyang Shaohua and felt her body tense and stiffen; she even trembled slightly at their initial contact. As he held her softly, an electrifying sensation coursed through him. He closed his eyes and quietly savored this warm moment. The fragrance of her innocence intoxicated him. At that moment, he sincerely wished for no one to interrupt them; he wanted to stay in this embrace until the end of time.
They remained in each other's arms for an hour as dawn began to break. Suddenly, Ouyang Shaohua opened her arms wide and tightly hugged Guan Yue while sobbing quietly. The overwhelming sadness made Guan Yue's heart ache like it was being cut by a knife.
He gently kissed Ouyang Shaohua's flushed cheek and then softly pushed away from her embrace, saying, "Don't come to see me off; it will put you in danger."
Ouyang Shaohua twisted her body and cried out, "No! I must see you off! They won't dare bully me; our family is very powerful. Don't worry; nothing will happen."
Thus, they walked together to Guan Yue's dormitory, where everyone else had already gone out to cultivate.
With the help of Ouyang Shaohua, Guan Yue organized his luggage and found that everything could fit inside the Storage Ring. Guan Yue was very happy; now he wouldn't have to carry luggage when going out.
Ouyang Shaohua took out a gold note and insisted on giving it to Guan Yue, but he firmly refused. He showed her the gold he had won, and only then did Ouyang Shaohua realize that Guan Yue also had some gold. However, Ouyang Shaohua still insisted on giving Guan Yue five hundred taels of gold.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else in the room, Ouyang Shaohua once again asked Guan Yue for a hug. At that moment, Ouyang Shaohua's unique fragrance began to deeply penetrate Guan Yue's senses, leaving an unforgettable memory. Guan Yue seized the opportunity to kiss her a few times; she merely blushed and felt hot, not daring to kiss him back. However, she bravely leaned her face closer to Guan Yue, allowing him to kiss her as much as he wanted!
Time flew by quickly. As they were entangled in their affection, it was almost noon. Guan Yue insisted on leaving, and Ouyang Shaohua tearfully told him, "You must keep your promise and come back in a year. I will be waiting for you here."
Guan Yue replied firmly, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. I will keep my word; I will come back to find you. Trust me." He kissed Ouyang Shaohua's delicate face again and then waved goodbye to her.
Ouyang Shaohua continued to cry as she saw Guan Yue off at the entrance of the boys' dormitory. She completely disregarded others' gazes and kept her red eyes fixed on Guan Yue's departing figure, watching him walk further and further away.
Guan Yue walked for a long time, still holding onto the image of Ouyang Shaohua standing there in anticipation, like a beautiful statue etched in stone, permanently engraved in his heart and never fading away.
Guan Yue went out for training.
This news spread throughout Qilin Academy.
When Dean Kintian heard that Guan Yue had easily defeated Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian from the Superior Realm, he felt that Guan Yue's future was limitless. However, Qilin Academy would not open a green channel for him! He even wondered who would be stronger when his disciples met Guan Yue in the future. Of course, his disciples were currently much stronger than Guan Yue, but what about later? Was it possible for Guan Yue to surpass them? In the Inner Courtyard of Qilin Academy, there were three direct disciples of Nantian; these three young men were all geniuses, exceptional among people! He looked forward to their competition with Guan Yue in a few years.
After leaving the academy, Guan Yue's first plan was to go to the Afer Forbidden Zone in the Eagle Ridge Mountains because Pufan Master had once said that as long as Guan Yue reached the Attainment Realm, he could go there to learn some legacies. Especially since the spirits there would greatly aid Guan Yue's soul.
Now that he had experimented and found that although he only had over two hundred drops of Essence, he already possessed the ability to fly with objects; it seemed he should be able to go there and take a look.
As soon as Guan Yue entered the mountainous area, he practiced his object manipulation flying technique. When there were many people around, he used the Cloud-Drifting Flowers lightness skill and made his way towards the Eagle Ridge Mountains. Traveling day and night, he continued on his journey for nearly a month before finally entering the Eagle Ridge Mountains.
Upon arriving at Eagle Ridge, Guan Yue eagerly used fierce beasts as test subjects to practice his boxing and sword techniques, and he obtained some Core. As Guan Yue ventured deeper into the mountains, spirit beasts began to appear.
Guan Yue understood that when animals appeared with Core, they became fierce beasts; when fierce beasts had Beast Cores, they transformed into spirit beasts; and when spirit beasts manifested Spirit Beasts, they evolved into divine beasts. Beasts were also continuously cultivating. Fierce beasts, spirit beasts, and divine beasts were divided into nine ranks, with rank one being the lowest and rank nine the highest.
Now that there were more and more spirit beasts, Guan Yue was increasingly happy. Spirit beasts were perfect for his training targets; whether for boxing or sword techniques, he could use spirit beasts as sparring partners. The effects were very significant; aside from Arena Matches, it was nearly impossible to find so many training partners otherwise. Moreover, there were Beast Cores to collect, which could later be exchanged for weapons, medicines, and more.
Thus, Guan Yue set off towards the Afu Mi Forbidden Zone in the Eagle Ridge Mountains while searching for spirit beasts to battle. Of course, he could only fight against weaker spirit beasts for now; if they exceeded ranks five or six, he would have to avoid them.
Suddenly, a thunderous roar from a giant beast echoed from afar. Guan Yue listened carefully and realized that the roaring beast was already exhausted. Out of curiosity, he decided to go take a look.
He leaped over mountains and swiftly flew across dozens of peaks using his treasured sword. When he reached a peak near the giant beast, he found himself struggling to keep going. Lying on top of the mountain, he was astonished to discover that the beast still howling was as large as a small mountain itself—hundreds of meters tall and over a thousand meters long. It resembled both a lizard and a gecko but was countless times larger. However, it could not move at the moment and lay there helplessly wailing on the ground. As Guan Yue approached it, he distinctly felt that its wailing carried immense Vital Energy Fluctuation that even caused his blood to surge violently, leaving him frightened.
"Grandpa, is it calling for its family?"
Guan Yue heard a girl's voice suddenly appear beside him. He turned his head and saw an elderly man with white whiskers and an eleven or twelve-year-old girl in plain clothes. The girl had her hair tied up in a bun and looked very clean and pure. She gazed at the giant beast with confusion, not understanding why it had been howling non-stop.
The elderly man examined the giant beast closely: "Rou'er, this spirit beast has transformed into a divine beast. It seems that Eagle Ridge Mountains will gain another divine beast soon."
"Oh, will it keep calling like this? It's been howling for over ten days now," the girl asked curiously.
The elderly man lowered his voice in response: "For a spirit beast to become a divine beast is a significant hurdle; it's not something that can be accomplished easily because during this period its body will undergo changes into Spirit Beasts. From what I can see now, this Giant Lizard Beast has completed its transformation; it is merely in its adaptation phase now. The entire transformation process will take about six months."
"Divine Beast?" Guan Yue was surprised and then asked, "Grandpa, shouldn't it have no fighting power at this time? Won't other spirit beasts attack it?"
Due to the call of the divine beast, the old man finally noticed Guan Yue lying on the ground, surprisingly without anything around him. The expression on the old man's face was quite strange: "Little one, where are your family?"
Guan Yue got up, shook off the dust from his body, and said to the old man, "My father is at home; we live in Duobo Town."
"What? You came here alone?" The girl named Rou'er was also surprised.
"Yeah, what's so strange about that? Aren't you here too?" Guan Yue pointed at the old man and asked.
"Child, how long have you been in the mountains?"
"I can't really say; it seems like several dozen days."
"Oh, you need to pay attention to safety in the future. If nothing major happens, you should leave the mountains. You haven't encountered any wild beasts for several dozen days; your luck is really good." A hint of a smile appeared in the old man's eyes.
"Aren't you all fine too?" Guan Yue looked at them as if it were only natural.
"Grandpa, let's take him back; it wouldn't be safe for him to be alone in the mountains." The girl named Rou'er was very happy to meet a little boy in the mountains, so she persuaded her grandfather to bring Guan Yue back to their place.
The old man chuckled, "Alright then, child, how about coming back with us? We live right here in the mountains. It's not far from here."
