Chapter 33
: A Teachable Child
Although his attempt to show off failed, it didn't affect Zhou Yu's calm demeanor as he walked out of the testing equipment. His back view was elegant and otherworldly, causing the students behind him to exclaim "Wow!"
Even the examiners rubbed their eyes.
"Student, you've left something in the detection equipment."
The examiner kindly went into the testing equipment and picked up the things Zhou Yu had dropped.
A sanitary napkin.
The students behind: "..."
The examiner: "...Student, your sanitary napkin."
Seeing this, Zhou Yu gently shook his head.
"No, it's your sanitary napkin."
"If you keep using the same old tired jokes, I'll give you a zero on the spiritual energy assessment, you believe me?"
Zhou Yu returned with the sanitary napkins looking disheveled.
"Awesome!" Gao Ying clapped her hands with a beaming smile. "Congratulations, Brother Yu, on being able to cultivate immortality!"
Zhou Yu remained silent, then crumpled the sanitary napkin in his hand into a ball and stuffed it into Gao Ying's mouth.
"Waaaah! Brother Yu, I can't fit any more in!"
Beside Gao Ying, Liu Bei and Liang Yanbo both looked rather grim.
It wasn't because Zhou Yu had awakened spiritual energy.
It's because he had just awakened his spiritual energy, and his spiritual energy value was already almost catching up with theirs!
I didn't ask you to never awaken your spiritual energy, and I'm not that kind of beast.
But what does it mean that your spiritual energy value has already reached 1.58 as soon as you awakened your spiritual energy? Did you cheat? You're only a sophomore in high school, right? If this continues, you'll get 3.0 on monthly exams and 5.0 on final exams. Won't you eventually become the school's most admired genius?
As your classmate and good brother, I might have to take care of you, really.
"Zhou Yu..."
Liu Bei spoke first, but Zhou Yu raised his hand to interrupt him before he could finish.
Then he reached out, raised his index finger towards Liu Bei, and opened his palm towards Liang Yanbo.
The two immediately understood and transferred a total of 10,500 yuan to him.
Upon hearing the sound of the arrival, Zhou Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Very good, you are teachable. If I become an Immortal Emperor in the future, you two will surely have a place."
Liu Bei rolled his eyes, but didn't dampen Zhou Yu's spirits while he was in power. "Well, I really do thank you."
However, Liang Yanbo calmly said, "Don't rush. Your spiritual energy is indeed very high, but you haven't yet taken all the courses of cultivation."
"You haven't even tried the Returning to Truth Breathing Technique yet, while some of us who cultivate quickly have already reached the third level. Your path of cultivation is still very long. Don't be too arrogant now, or you'll attract hatred in a moment."
Zhou Yu didn't mention that his Returning to Truth Breathing Technique was already at Lv5; he planned to show off during the spiritual energy class.
"Zhou, you've already awakened your spiritual energy! How come your spiritual energy level is so high? How did you do that? Is there some secret technique?"
"Zhou, do you have any insights into awakening spiritual energy? Do you plan to teach us?"
"Zhou, my classmate..."
……
There were so many people coming to greet him that they almost completely surrounded Zhou Yu, and even pushed Gao Ying and the other two out of the way.
"What the hell!" Gao Ying said angrily, "Before awakening his spiritual energy, he didn't take my Brother Yu seriously, but now he's all over me? What does that mean? Does awakening spiritual energy make you so noble?"
Liu Bei thought to himself, "Awakening spiritual energy isn't the key issue; the key issue is that this guy's spiritual energy level is a bit too high."
Zhou Yu, standing in the crowd, listened to the questions around him without saying a word, and silently raised his hand.
The crowd fell silent, watching as Zhou Yu pulled out the wooden plank from somewhere and hung it around his neck with a rope.
Then he flipped the wooden board over.
A line of words was written on the wooden board with an oil-based pen.
"One hundred yuan for saying one sentence."
He even took out his phone on the spot, opened the QR code for receiving payments, and showed it to everyone.
The students: "..."
Liu Bei and his two companions: "..."
You're fucking obsessed with money, aren't you?
A classmate tentatively scanned a hundred-yuan note and gave it to Zhou Yu. Upon receiving the money, Zhou Yu immediately smiled and asked, "Excuse me, is there anything you want to ask?"
The student who transferred the money quickly asked, "Your spiritual energy is so high after awakening, is there some secret technique involved? Or is it due to your lifestyle habits?"
After a brief moment of thought, Zhou Yu gave an excellent answer.
"I have no idea."
"You didn't know?" The student who transferred the money was taken aback. "Could it be due to your lifestyle habits?"
Zhou Yu didn't reply, but simply pointed to the wooden board in front of his chest.
No, this is just one sentence?
Everyone was stunned. At that moment, a pretty female classmate approached Zhou Yu and said, "Zhou Yu..."
Zhou Yu pointed to the board in front of his chest.
"Oh, I'm a girl, so I'm different from boys. You should think about it carefully..."
Zhou Yu thought about it and agreed, then took out a marker and added a sentence to the end.
"Two hundred for women."
Female classmate: "..."
"Fine! Fine!" Gao Ying said, clenching her fist. "Why do women get special privileges? Privileges belong to us, Yu Ge's good brothers!"
Liu Bei and Liang Yanbo thought to themselves, "Have you forgotten that you're a woman?"
Zhou Yu glanced at Gao Ying and gave her a relieved smile.
Then he took out an oil-based pen and wrote another sentence on the board.
"I have three hundred brothers."
Gao Ying: "..."
……
On the high platform, the student council president, who had his hands clenched into a tube shape, was slightly surprised. "I didn't expect this kid to have such a high spiritual energy value of 1.58 right after he awakened his spiritual energy. This seems to be even more frightening than your spiritual energy value when you awakened."
"Oh right, what was your spiritual energy level when you awakened?"
Sun Zhongmou put down his binoculars and said in a deep voice, "When I awakened, it was around 1.4, I think..."
"That kid is really better than you," the student council president exclaimed. "There are always new talents emerging in every generation. Our second year of high school is truly a vibrant and diverse group."
Sun Zhongmou remained silent; now he was certain of his guess.
Zhou Yu must have awakened his spiritual energy before, and then he has been cultivating the Returning to Truth Breathing Technique until now, which is why he has this level of spiritual energy.
Just like I was back then.
The only problem is that Zhou Yu's speed in cultivating the Returning to Truth Breathing Technique is a bit too fast.
When did he come into contact with this martial art?
Sun Zhongmou suddenly felt a deep curiosity about Zhou Yu.
Regardless of the circumstances, this kid's talent in cultivating the Returning to Truth Breathing Technique is definitely superior to mine.
I'm currently worried about not finding a suitable teacher to guide me, so I'm upgrading my Guizhen Breathing Method to level ten.
If Zhou Yu has this kind of talent...
No, there's not enough time.
In less than a year, even the most outstanding genius would not be able to start from scratch and raise the Guizhen Breathing Technique to level ten.
Thinking of this, Sun Zhongmou's face darkened, and he turned and walked towards the exit of the audience.
"Hey, where are you going?" the student council president asked from behind.
"Go back and take the exam," Sun Zhongmou replied, "I want to thoroughly shock everyone."
"Alright! You're taking an exam, so I'm taking one too!" The student council president caught up with Sun Quan, saying aggressively, "Watch how I smash through your Eastern Wu's Jianye!"
Sun Zhongmou kicked the student council president into the women's restroom.
