Ye Qiu threw a heavy punch directly at Xiao Wu's delicate little face.
The white patches in his eyes slightly contracted.
Ye Qiu frowned.
He realized that his fist somehow remained just short of reaching Xiao Wu's face.
He activated what little soul power he had within him.
His hands moved faster, and his footwork closed in on Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu blinked her crimson eyes. With a smile tugging at her lips, she leaned her upper body backward while keeping her legs straight, gracefully dodging Ye Qiu's punch.
At the same time, she planted her hands on the ground and flipped backward, her feet kicking up under Ye Qiu's chin.
Ye Qiu had a sturdier body than Tang San.
Xiao Wu wasn't worried about putting Ye Qiu in bed for days.
At this moment—
Ye Qiu had just thrown his punch and couldn't retract it in time. But he wasn't going to just let Xiao Wu kick his chin.
If he couldn't pull back, then he wouldn't!
His heightened senses allowed him to anticipate most dangers.
With the help of his Spider Sense,
Ye Qiu instantly launched the most effective counter.
"Ah—!"
In the blink of an eye—
Relying on his strength, Ye Qiu charged toward Xiao Wu like a brute.
Still upside-down, Xiao Wu let out a startled yelp.
But she reacted quickly.
Bending her arms, she gave up the attack and flipped back instead.
Once standing upright again, she patted her small chest, looking at Ye Qiu with lingering fear.
"Heh—little bunny, come at me again."
Ye Qiu peeled away the black covering on his face, revealing a half-smile. He crooked a finger at Xiao Wu, his tone as provoking as ever.
"Ah! See if Sister Xiao Wu doesn't beat you to death!"
After being called "bunny" several times, Xiao Wu snapped.
Watching Ye Qiu charge forward—
Xiao Wu once again kicked at him midair, only to be knocked back by the force.
At that,
She didn't dare confront him head-on anymore. Instead, she bounced around, circling Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu folded his arms and turned slowly, watching Xiao Wu hop around.
Even with his stats boosted in all areas, trying to catch an experienced fighter like Xiao Wu—especially one skilled in flexible techniques—was a challenge.
He had to wait for the rabbit to fall into the trap!
Mind guiding movement—
Ye Qiu made up his mind. He charged at Xiao Wu with full force, reaching out to pounce on her tiger-style, intending to catch and trap her in his arms.
"Hmph! Big dummy."
Xiao Wu snorted, stepped on the bedframe, and leaped high, flipping over Ye Qiu's head and landing behind him.
She had once wrapped her legs around Ye Qiu's head—
But the top of his head was too smooth, round, and even a little sticky, like it might swallow her if she lingered too long. She couldn't properly execute her flexibility-based techniques on it.
So now, standing behind Ye Qiu, she seized the opportunity and flicked her ponytail.
Her long scorpion braid whipped out like a snake and coiled around Ye Qiu's neck.
"The outcome's decided."
Tang San gave a slight smile.
He now had a good sense of Ye Qiu's strength.
Beating Wang Sheng wouldn't be hard.
But Ye Qiu's lack of technique was a real letdown—he had power but didn't know how to use it.
"Hmph hmph..."
Xiao Wu gave a cold chuckle.
She raised her right foot and kicked Ye Qiu's butt, then bent over to throw him for a slam.
But how could Ye Qiu let her get her way?!
Just as he felt something tighten around his neck—
In front of Tang San and Wang Sheng's surprised eyes, black, tendril-like appendages extended from Ye Qiu's body.
They gripped the bed frame and stuck to the floor.
"Yah!"
Xiao Wu was just about to bend down and launch him, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move Ye Qiu's body.
Instead, her scalp began to ache.
She turned around and saw what was happening—her crimson eyes flashing with shock.
Whoosh!
Ye Qiu suddenly turned around.
He opened his arms, trying to give Xiao Wu a bear hug.
Xiao Wu froze for a moment, feeling a cold sensation on her butt. Her leg, raised to kick back, was pushed aside.
Ye Qiu had already closed in from behind, pressing tightly against her, completely cutting off her ability to perform her flexibility techniques.
"Ah! Y-You wish!"
Realizing she was about to be hugged, Xiao Wu cried out and leaped forward.
"Ah—!"
Too bad, her hair was still in Ye Qiu's grip.
"Gotcha!"
Just as Xiao Wu tried to escape, Ye Qiu yanked her by the hair, scooped up her soft little body, and threw her at the dormitory wall.
"Ah!"
Xiao Wu cried out mid-air.
"Ye Qiu."
This time, even Tang San couldn't stand it. He called out.
"Ye Qiu, maybe that's enough... She's still a girl. You're being kind of excessive."
