Xiao Tian was taken aback. "Huh? Just my intuition. Think about it, not only did I beat you in a fight today, but I also said a lot of things that go against your views, like about Spirit Hall..."
Xiao Wu fell silent for a moment before speaking. "That's true, but first of all, in the fight, you won fair and square... although you were a bit shameless in the middle of it! And the things you said, after thinking about it carefully, I think you have a point. We really should be focusing on cultivation right now, and it's better not to get involved in other trivial matters. As for Spirit Hall, I'll reserve my judgment..."
Then, Xiao Wu gave a cunning smile. "But Xiao Tian, I'm not really interested in those trivial things either. What I'm most interested in is being the big boss. But now I know you're probably much stronger than that Xiao Chenyu guy, even though your spirit power is lower than mine. How about this, you can't just practice the sword all the time. How about we have some combat training sessions occasionally? If I win, you have to call me Big Sister Xiao Wu. How about it?"
Xiao Tian couldn't help but smile. "And what if you lose?"
Xiao Wu stuck her neck out and said confidently, "I won't lose next time. If I do, you can do whatever you want to me!"
"Oh? Really? Anything?"
Xiao Tian revealed a teasing smile, his eyes slowly scanning Xiao Wu's entire body, then said with some regret, "Forget it, I'm not interested in a little loli like you. No chest, no legs."
Instantly, Xiao Wu's face turned beet red with shame, and she subconsciously kicked at Xiao Tian's waist!
"Jerk Xiao Tian! How dare you say that about me! What kind of filthy garbage is in your head! I'm still growing! What kid my age would meet your standards! I've discovered you're sometimes seriously unhinged, you pervert!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, you get angry after I say a couple of true things. Alright, I'll stop teasing you. It's not out of the question to have combat training with you, but you have to be prepared to get your butt spanked like today, anytime. Also, since it's combat training, no crying if you get hurt!"
With quick eyes and swift hands, Xiao Tian easily caught the small foot Xiao Wu had aimed at him.
"Hehe, if you're bad, just practice more! Alright, we're at the cafeteria, I'm done messing with you. Time to eat!"
Xiao Wu: "..."
Xiao Wu felt a mix of shame and anger. This Xiao Tian was good-looking and had a good physique, but unfortunately, he was cursed with such a mouth! Were all swordsmen this blunt!
Subconsciously, Xiao Wu looked down at her own slightly flat chest, her gaze traveling all the way down to her feet.
"Xiao Tian, help me buy some papaya later. My mom said it can help with sleep!" Xiao Wu said through gritted teeth.
Pfft!
Xiao Tian really couldn't hold back his laughter. How on earth did she come up with that excuse!
"Sure, no problem. Oh right, papaya is best with milk, hahahaha! Oh, and you can owe me the money for it."
Yu Xiaogang and Tang San were left standing there, feeling a bit bewildered.
They looked at each other, and Yu Xiaogang finally sighed. "Ahem, it is indeed time to eat. Let's go too."
Yu Xiaogang had stood there for a long time before finally squeezing out that sentence, giving himself a way to save face. It was just that his mood at the moment was not very pleasant. Xiao Tian's attitude had really displeased him!
Of course, the reason he had been willing to make an exception and take Xiao Tian as a registered disciple was solely because of his Spirit.
In all these years, besides his own Luo San Pao, Xiao Tian was the second person he knew of whose Spirit was sentient. This had aroused his intense interest!
And according to Tang San, Xiao Tian's Spirit was a very ordinary-looking iron sword, yet it possessed an innate rank of five, which he found incredible!
How could an ordinary iron sword Spirit possibly have an innate rank of five! After all, his Luo San Pao had only granted him half a rank of spirit power! Even if his own Spirit was a bit unsightly, it at least possessed true dragon blood!
And it never once occurred to Yu Xiaogang to suspect that it wasn't the Spirit that was lacking, but the person! What kind of garbage spirit rings had he paired Luo San Pao with!
Spirits with true dragon blood are generally not weak, but because of this, there's an unwritten rule on the continent: it's best to hunt spirit beasts with dragon bloodlines for spirit rings! This was a consensus among all Spirit Masters with dragon-type Spirits on the continent, but Yu Xiaogang just had to go against the grain!
He had completely and utterly wasted Luo San Pao. Who could he possibly blame for that?
"Teacher, are you really planning to take Xiao Tian as a disciple?" Tang San asked with curiosity.
To be honest, his impression of Xiao Tian was not very good.
He had originally thought that having been reborn into this world, possessing all the knowledge from his past life at the Tang Sect, he would be, if not able to fight above his rank, at least invincible among his peers! But in his very first battle in this life, he had lost. He had lost to Xiao Tian, who only had an innate spirit power of rank five. This left him feeling quite unbalanced!
Secondly, for some reason, seeing Xiao Wu so close to Xiao Tian made him feel a bit down.
Yu Xiaogang looked in the direction where Xiao Tian had disappeared and said coolly, "Not a disciple, but a registered disciple. It's a title in name only. I'm only interested in his Spirit. His innate rank of five is not worthy of being my disciple. I will only have one direct disciple in this life, and that is you, Tang San!"
Yu Xiaogang laughed to himself. Tang San's talent was the best he's seen, aside from Bibi Dong's. And his second Spirit was the Clear Sky Hammer. He believed that the Clear Sky Hammer Spirit alone was much stronger than Bibi Dong's Spider Emperor Spirit.
He could already imagine the scene in the later stages, where Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer would be equipped with at least ten-thousand-year spirit rings, combined with the Clear Sky Sect's secret techniques. Even Bibi Dong wouldn't stand a chance!
He heard that Xiao Tian had used his Spirit to defeat Tang San today? He didn't care at all. It was normal for Xiao Tian's Spirit to have a slight advantage now. But tomorrow, when he took Tang San to the Spirit Hunting Forest to get the first spirit ring for his Blue Silver Grass, with Xiao Tian's abilities, he wouldn't even be able to get close to Tang San!
This was the power of a control-type Spirit. Even ordinary Blue Silver Grass was a natural counter to power-attack types like Xiao Tian! After all, for a swordsman... as long as the sword is controlled, the person themselves is not a threat. Unlike Beast Spirit Masters, who might be able to break free from control with a full-power outburst!
Chen Xin: "Are you sure about that?"
Moreover, Tang San had a powerful background—Tang Hao and the Clear Sky Sect. To test his theories on Tang San, he needed to be cautious and ask for his opinion. But as for Xiao Tian, he was just a six-year-old child. Did he know how to absorb spirit rings? Did he know so much about spirit beasts? In the end, wouldn't he just have to listen to him obediently? Then he would have a good test subject! It was just that their first meeting today had been a bit unpleasant, which he hadn't expected...
