She said there were leftovers from lunch and insisted that I stay for dinner.”

Then he added, “Oh, brother, the dishes Mistress makes are so delicious.

I’ve brought some tasty things back for you.”

“Okay.” Tang Fei nodded.

After expending ten thousand sword strikes, he had indeed begun to feel hungry.

“Brother, what happened to you just now?

You scared me to death,” Little Fatty said.

“Did you see those little figures?” Tang Fei asked.

“What little figures?”

“The ones on the Beast Skin Scroll.

They were moving,” Tang Fei said.

Little Fatty held the Beast Skin Scroll and looked at it for a while, then shook his head and said, “Brother, I can’t see clearly.”

All the lights in the room were off, and only a Luminous Pearl was emitting a green glow.

The characters on the Beast Skin Scroll were just too small, and as Little Fatty kept looking, he started to feel dizzy…

So he couldn’t see clearly.

“You can’t see?” Tang Fei asked, puzzled.

“I can’t see,” Little Fatty said.

“How about turning on the lights?

If you turn them on, then I can see.”

To test the peculiarities of the scroll, Tang Fei said, “Alright, let’s turn on the lights and see.”

When the lights were on, Little Fatty pointed at the characters on the Beast Skin Scroll and said, “Brother, I can see now.”

“What characters?”

Little Fatty shook his head and said, “I don’t recognize them.”

“Can you see these characters moving?” Tang Fei asked.

Little Fatty then nervously touched Tang Fei’s forehead and said, “Brother, why are you talking nonsense?

How can characters move?”

“…”

Tang Fei suddenly felt comforted in his heart.

Although he couldn’t use the Skull Hammer, Little Fatty also couldn’t see the little figures fencing on the Netherworld Scroll…

The Evil God must be a Libra, right?

Always seeking fairness and impartiality in actions.

“Didn’t you notice anything different about our room?”

It was only then that Little Fatty looked around and exclaimed with surprise, “Hey, brother, our home has changed…”

“Of course, I know it’s changed…

I’m asking what’s different about it?”

“This is different…

Wasn’t this place for drinking before?”

“I remodeled it.

I turned it into a Training Room, so from now on, we can both train here,” Tang Fei explained.

“That’s great!” Little Fatty said joyfully.

“So can I come here to break rocks?”

“There are no rocks here for you to break.” Tang Fei said.

“You should keep smashing rocks in the yard.

This is a place for training…

Since you can’t bring the Skull Hammer to school, you should train here.”

“Brother, let’s buy a Gravity Room, too?

The one at school is pretty good.

Plus, you can break rocks inside.”

“You think we can afford one?”

“Then how did you have money to remodel the Training Room?”

“Your Sister Phoenix gave me the money,” Tang Fei said.

“Sister Phoenix gave you money?”

He paused for a moment and then added, “Sister Phoenix didn’t give me any money.”

“Isn’t giving me money the same as giving you money?” Tang Fei said comfortingly.

“Besides, what does a little kid like you need money for?”

“Oh.” Little Fatty thought his brother’s words made a lot of sense.

Since he was with his brother all the time, giving his brother money was like giving it to himself, right?

“Brother, why are you lying on the floor?”

“Because I’m tired from practicing swordplay.”

“Then, I’ll lie down with you.” Mimicking Tang Fei, Little Fatty lay down on the floor and said, “Brother, I won’t go to Master’s house for meals anymore.”

“Why?”

“Because they didn’t invite you for meals.

I want to eat with you.”

Tang Fei grinned and said, “You should go to Master’s house for meals.

Not only should you eat there, but do it often.

Don’t worry about me; there are plenty of people who want to invite me for meals.”

“Brother, why would they want to invite you for meals?” Little Fatty asked, confused.

Inviting someone for meals costs money, right?

They aren’t big brother’s friends, so why would they spend money on him?

“Because…

I am quite likable.

Just like how you are quite favored by Dean Shang.”

“Oh.” Little Fatty nodded and said, “Brother, did you have a fight with Sister Phoenix?”

Tang Fei was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Little Fatty’s chubby face and asked, “Why do you ask?”

“I could feel it…” Little Fatty said seriously.

“When you and Sister Phoenix said goodbye, something about your voices was off, and so were your gazes…

it was as if you would never see each other again.”

“…”

——

Waking up, he felt refreshed.

This was the advantage of being a Cultivator: no matter how tired you were the day before, after a night of adjusting and repairing with Yin Yang Qi, your body could quickly recover to its original state.

Of course, there were also freaks.

Like Little Fatty, who was already smashing rocks in the yard early in the morning with a crackling sound.

Tang Fei leaned out of the second-floor window and shouted, “Aren’t you supposed to go to the Gravity Room to smash rocks later?

Why start smashing them at home now?”

With a simple and honest smile on his face, Little Fatty looked at Tang Fei and said, “I like smashing real rocks; it’s much more satisfying…”

He liked the sensation of stones flying about, the sight of large rocks being smashed into the shapes he envisioned, and the memories of the Old Land that came to him while smashing rocks…

He missed his godfather.

After breakfast, Tang Fei and Little Fatty got in the car and headed for school.

This morning’s class was about mechanics, and Tang Fei needed to meet the teachers and students in his class.

Tang Fei’s homeroom teacher was named Huang Tianmu, a name that sounded formidable, but he was a friendly-looking old man.

He led Tang Fei into the classroom and, addressing the students who were conducting experiments, said, “Classmates, put down your work for a moment; I want to introduce a new student…”

He pointed at Tang Fei and said, “This is Tang Fei, our new transfer student.

From now on, he’s part of our Class Nine.

Everyone should help and take care of each other.”

“Tang Fei, say hello to everyone.”

“Hello everyone, I’m Tang Fei,” Tang Fei said with a beaming smile.

“I know you, the Pride of the Old Land…”

“The badass who took down Shen Qingping…

I didn’t expect you to come to our Mechanical Department…”

“You’re not thinking of pursuing both literary and martial skills, are you?

That’s not easy to do.”

“Mechanical design requires precision and creative inspiration; it’s not something you can learn by just doing it a few times…”

——

Huang Tianmu looked at a girl in the classroom wearing glasses and said, “Lu Siyu, as class president, you should take extra care of the new student.”

The girl, busy operating a mechanical arm to assemble a steel tiger, didn’t even lift her head as she said, “He’s not a child; what’s there to take care of?”

“…”

Hearing Lu Siyu’s response, a buzz of chatter rose again in the classroom.

“It seems the class president is not too impressed with the new guy.”

“When has the class president ever been impressed?

Isn’t she always so icy?”

“She’s usually quite approachable though, hardly ever refuses when you ask her for help with problems…”

“Why don’t you ask her out for a meal then?”

“I wouldn’t dare; I’m not about to do something that foolish…”

——

Since Lu Siyu didn’t give face, Huang Tianmu didn’t push it any further and said with an awkward smile, “After all, we are classmates.

If Tang Fei has any questions, everyone should help him out…”

“Don’t worry, teacher, we’ll definitely share our knowledge.”

“Exactly, as classmates, we should help each other improve.”

“Unless we don’t know it ourselves…”

——

“Thank you, Mr.

Huang, thank you all,” Tang Fei said happily.

“I do have a question I’d like to ask everyone…”

He opened the case he was carrying and took out a giant Mechanical Snake head from inside, placed it on the podium in front of him, and said, “I wonder if any student could help me connect the electronic circuits of this snake head?”

Wow!

There were exclamations of awe from the crowd.

None of them had expected the new transfer student to kick off with such an intricate and challenging task.

“This is the head of a Mechanical Snake; the craftsmanship is just too perfect…”

“This seems like something only an Advanced Mechanic could make; we couldn’t manage it…”

“Where did this thing come from?

It must not be cheap, right?”

——

Lu Siyu busied herself with assembling her steel tiger and didn’t once look at Tang Fei, nor did she glance at the Mechanical Snake head.
