#419 - Chapter 418 Xiao Shiwu's Love
"Xiao-ge, did you really date Teacher Cen's team leader?"
After washing his feet, Qi Jing, on Xiao Shiwu's flying sword, finally couldn't resist his curiosity and asked this tantalizing question.
Xiao Shiwu chuckled lightly:
"Of course, from a young age, I displayed unparalleled handsomeness. The number of people who pursued me in each grade could circle the Earth two and a half times, especially during my time at the Ability Academy."
Speaking of this, Xiao Shiwu paused.
Qi Jing immediately understood and asked like a comic sidekick:
"What about the Ability Academy?"
Although Xiao Shiwu's words were greatly exaggerated, the main content should still be somewhat believable.
Xiao Shiwu continued to narrate:
"Of course, my ability made me even more handsome! On the night I awakened my ability, I knew that my handsomeness would be elevated to another level, rising from the ceiling to the roof, from the pinnacle of mortals to the level of immortals.
From then on, I began to study how to make myself look more handsome and stronger.
With my persistent efforts and unremitting struggle, my ability was perfectly developed, successfully winning the championship in every school year's competition. I was also the champion on both the popularity and influence charts.
At that time, I was the center of attention, and countless girls admired me, especially when they found out that I had never been in a relationship, they pursued me even more fiercely."
"How fiercely?"
"Have you seen those scenes in TV shows where people slip notes and love letters around street corners? I received about two pounds of them every day.
Fortunately, this is a university, with no fixed seating, otherwise, the number of notes would have multiplied several times.
Leaving notes was still relatively subtle. There were also many direct confessions every day. What impressed me the most was that one person confessed to me ninety-nine times. Just when I wanted to break her legs so she wouldn't bother me anymore, she suddenly went to explore another world and became very, very strong, although still not as strong as me."
《Starting by confessing to the male god 99 times and then becoming stronger》?
Could this person's ability be this kind of 'cool' system?
"Then how did you agree to Captain Hong's confession?"
To hear gossip, one must play the role of an excellent comic sidekick.
Hearing Qi Jing's question, Xiao Shiwu shook his head:
"No, no, no, she didn't confess to me. At that time, she wasn't very strong due to her ability. Do you know what her ability is?"
"Yeah, yeah."
Qi Jing hadn't drawn Captain Hong's ability yet. He was thinking of drawing a 'Gluttony' ability too.
Xiao Shiwu continued to say:
"The ability of 'Gluttony,' like Hong-shu's 'Hunting,' is a highly scalable late-stage ability, but its growth method is more difficult.
One only needs to wield a blade to kill enemies, while the other needs to constantly eat.
Leaving aside whether there are teeth made of iron, just the masseter muscle, uh, the posture is much more unsightly, and there's also the limitation of the stomach.
Fortunately, she met a big brother whose ability was 'Eating,' which allowed the food she ate to not take up space in her stomach. Later, she even awakened the abilities of devouring and rapid digestion, which allowed her to get rid of the limitations of her mouth and stomach."
Eating?
The form teacher?
Qi Jing remembered what he said when he went to the form teacher's house after graduating from high school. He didn't expect him and Captain Hong to know each other too. What a fate!
It's been a long time since I've seen the form teacher. I should go back and see him during the winter vacation, and bring him two tons of food that won't fill him up.
No, it's winter vacation now. Why does it feel like there are more things to do during vacation than when there's no vacation?
Damn it, continue listening.
"At that time, she had just awakened her ability and didn't have those convenient abilities later on. She could only eat during the day, eat after waking up, eat every day, almost eating all the time except for class.
In addition, her title of 'Daughter of the Strongest Ability User' made her think every day about how to become stronger, how not to shame her father when he attended parent-teacher conferences, so naturally, she didn't have time to pursue me like other girls."
"Attend parent-teacher conferences? Our academy holds parent-teacher conferences?"
As soon as Qi Jing heard about parent-teacher conferences, he subconsciously wanted to escape, fearing that the teacher and parents would exchange information.
But on second thought, he was already the Newcomer King, what was he afraid of? He would be the one being praised at parent-teacher conferences, he should be happy.
But why was he still a little scared?
Xiao Shiwu gave Qi Jing a contemptuous look:
"Metaphor, can't you understand a metaphor? The meaning of holding parent-teacher conferences is to let everyone compare their children. If the child of the strongest ability user isn't strong, wouldn't that be shameful?"
So they don't hold parent-teacher conferences.
That's right, how could they hold parent-teacher conferences in university? Although the teachers at the Ability Academy have good memories and can remember the names of every student, they don't have the time to call parents.
No, no, no, now is not the time to think about parent-teacher conferences.
Qi Jing continued to ask:
"This thing called ability, no one can say for sure, how could it be shameful?"
The awakening of abilities has already proven that it has nothing to do with genetics. It's already super lucky that Hong-yeye's daughter has a combat ability that allows her to enter the academy, what's there to be ashamed of?
"Indeed, that's what you say from a third-person perspective. Xiaole, as the person involved, definitely thinks differently from us. At that time, she just wanted to become stronger. After learning about her ability, she kept eating.
Although she didn't gain weight, many people called her a glutton, a rice bucket, and other vulgar names behind her back. In addition, her combat power wasn't very high, so she was a little inferior."
Hearing Xiao Shiwu's words, a big question mark rose in Qi Jing's handsome head.
That cheerful, generous, mature, and stable Captain Hong was inferior? Are you kidding me?
"Can't imagine it."
Xiao Shiwu nodded and said softly:
"Indeed, she's different from then. She's very confident now."
........... (Silence suddenly falls)
Qi Jing looked at the slightly silent Xiao Shiwu, thought for a moment, and said:
"Let me guess your story. At that time, she was an inferior, transparent person, and you were a proud, popular person. You saw too many girls, so you noticed her, who was different, and then you got together!"
"Oh ho, how did you guess that?"
"It's a classic scene in TV dramas. Did you fall in love first and pursue her? Then she thought you were just playing around, so she didn't agree. Then you were shameless and, after several events, she saw your sincerity and finally got together?"
Xiao Shiwu nodded:
"Pretty much the same. You've watched a lot of TV, kid. If I hadn't watched TV too, I would have almost thought you were my classmate."
His love started almost exactly as Qi Jing said. Back then, the arrogant him felt a hint of curiosity when he saw this transparent person. After learning about her specific situation from the people around him, he was attracted to that contradictory girl.
Like in dramas, after several contacts, the two people attracted each other, understood each other, and developed feelings for each other.
It's just that the ending wasn't very good, they eventually broke up.
"Xiao-ge, can I ask you a question?"
Seeing that Xiao Shiwu's mood suddenly deteriorated after saying this, Qi Jing wanted to ease the atmosphere.
"Ask away."
"Back then, were you ever beaten by Hong-yeye?"
"Uh, no, absolutely not. Hong-shu is my idol, how could he beat me?"
Seeing the slightly guilty Xiao Shiwu, Qi Jing got the answer and showed a "I understand" smile on his face.
"You little brat, you're laughing at me, aren't you? Get off the sword and go kill all the Hook Apes on this mountain!"
With that, Xiao Shiwu kicked Qi Jing off the flying sword from a thousand meters in the air.
