13: Chapter 13 The Diligent Xiao Ji_1 13: Chapter 13 The Diligent Xiao Ji_1 “Doot?”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, as Feng Yuan rubbed Xiao Ji’s head as if he had remembered something interesting.
“Where are we going?”
“Seems like we decided on Li Long Park, why?”
“Then we’ll definitely visit Panlong Tower, right~”
Is there a problem with Panlong Tower?”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan, puzzled, just as he was about to explain, the waiter brought over the delicious food.
Seeing his beloved glistening golden soup dumplings, Feng Yuan couldn’t bother to explain and simply said, “Let’s talk after eating,” and began enjoying the food.
“Xiao Ji, want some~”
Seeing the soup dumpling Feng Yuan handed over, Xiao Ji stepped back several steps almost falling off the table.
Qi Chen looked helplessly at Feng Yuan and said,
“Can you stop trying to feed Xiao Ji our food?
Look, Xiao Ji doesn’t even want to eat it.”
“What a shame, it’s such delicious food~”
“Xiao Ji, don’t mind him.
Ah Mu, share some of your food with Xiao Ji.”
Watching Xiao Ji happily munch on the Spirit Beast Food that Ah Mu passed over, Feng Yuan quietly ate his own meal.
After a while, Qi Chen, having finished eating, looked at Feng Yuan who was still battling the pile of food and shook his head, asking the dozing Xiao Ji,
“I’m taking Ah Mu out for a walk.
Do you want to come?”
Feng Yuan raised his head to look at Qi Chen and said,
“You’re leaving just like that?
Won’t you wait for me?”
Qi Chen glanced at the remaining pile of food and said with annoyance,
“If I wait for you to finish, who knows how long it’ll be.
I’m going out for a walk with Ah Mu first.”
“Xiao Ji, will you go with him?”
Xiao Ji hesitated for a moment sitting on the table looking at Feng Yuan.
Seeing this, Feng Yuan smiled and said to Qi Chen,
“Then you head back to the dorm first~ I’ll go back after I finish eating.”
Qi Chen thought for a moment, said nothing, took Ah Mu, and left.
Feng Yuan continued to enjoy his food, while Xiao Ji sat beside him and after watching for a while, closed its eyes for a nap.
“You really are something.
How about you take the leftovers back?
I’ve been around the block and you’re still not finished,” Qi Chen said, somewhat helplessly, upon returning to find Feng Yuan still eating.
Feng Yuan thought for a moment, nodded, and said,
“Fine, I’ll take it back and continue eating~”
Seeing Feng Yuan carrying a big bag of food and holding Xiao Ji, Qi Chen asked curiously,
“Why are you taking so much food?”
“Stocking up energy~ Aren’t we going to Panlong Tower this weekend~”
Since when did you have that ability?
But from the sound of it, does Panlong Tower really have an issue?”
Seeing Qi Chen’s surprised look, Feng Yuan said with a mischievous smile,
“Of course~ Haven’t you watched the news?
There’s been sightings of Dreaming Dragon Babies at Panlong Tower~”
Would such a rare Spirit Beast appear in a place like ours?”
“What do you mean ‘a place like ours’?
Our city isn’t bad at all, okay.
But it’s indeed strange for Dreaming Dragon Babies to appear here.”
While Feng Yuan was talking, he stretched his hand and scratched Xiao Ji’s round belly.
After a while, Xiao Ji collapsed right on top of Feng Yuan’s head.
Seeing Xiao Ji like that, Qi Chen said with some resignation,
“What did you do to Xiao Ji now?”
“Just made it too comfortable~”
All I saw was you scratching Xiao Ji’s belly.
You gotta tell me how it got so comfortable from that!”
“Isn’t Xiao Ji coming with us to class?”
The next day, when they were getting ready to leave for class and found that Xiao Ji had left the dorm on its own, Qi Chen asked Feng Yuan with some puzzlement.
Feng Yuan scratched his head and said uncertainly,
“Seems like Xiao Ji plans to train some special moves.
Anyway, it’s just cultural classes like language arts later, no big deal if Xiao Ji skips.”
Are you really that okay with Xiao Ji training alone?”
“There’s nothing to worry about, Xiao Ji isn’t leaving school, what danger could there be?”
“That’s what you said before we left for the weekend!”
was an accident, an accident.”
Feng Yuan flashed a bright smile at Qi Chen, and Qi Chen just shook his head without saying much.
By the time the two arrived at the classroom, a girl with short, neat hair stopped Feng Yuan and said,
“Are you feeling better?
Can you still participate in the competition next month?”
Feng Yuan scratched his head and said,
“Pretty much fully recovered now, the competition next month is definitely no problem～”
After saying that, she turned her head and walked back into the classroom.
Feng Yuan scratched his head and took his seat, while Qi Chen whispered to him,
“You should really take it easy lately.
If any more accidents happen, Chen Xin is really going to have Nie Yu replace you.”
If that happens, I’d actually be more relaxed～”
“You’re not really planning to have another accident, are you?”
Feng Yuan stretched lazily, rested his chin on the desk, and looked at Qi Chen,
“Of course～ I never really wanted to compete, it’s so exhausting.”
“But that way, our class’s chances of winning will plummet.
Nie Yu’s strength is far less than yours; our class mainly relies on you to lead the way.”
“Don’t underestimate Chen Xin and Pei Yu, their strength isn’t weak.
They just couldn’t connect with a Spirit Beast before, but now, they could totally beat you with no problem～”
“Why are you using me as an example?!”
“It’s more intuitive～”
Feng Yuan changed his position and continued resting on the table,
“But after using the Spirit of Wood Potion, Ah Mu’s potential should be nearing the Good Level, right?”
“Right, he’s already stepped through the threshold of the Good Level.”
As Qi Chen spoke, he straightened Ah Mu’s leaves, and Feng Yuan said with a smile,
Then is Ah Mu now controlling the power of nourishment, otherwise it might hurt you?
You’re holding back Ah Mu, Qi Chen～”
“Yeah, Ah Mu has really worked hard.”
“Xiao Ji～ come here for a hug～”
After the last class of the morning, Feng Yuan ran to the battle area to find Xiao Ji.
As soon as he saw Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan opened his arms ready to hug Xiao Ji.
After rubbing the excited Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan placed Xiao Ji on top of his head and was about to leave when he noticed that Teacher Yan had also stepped out through the gate.
“Hello, Teacher Yan～”
Teacher Yan responded and then, looking at Xiao Ji on Feng Yuan’s head, said to him,
“Xiao Ji is very good, very hardworking.
You should learn from Xiao Ji; you’ve been too lax lately.”
Scratching his head with a bright smile, Feng Yuan said,
“Not at all～ I attend classes properly, you know.”
“You, well, hasn’t your Xiao Ji learned any Death Series special moves?
I see it using Wind Attribute moves all the time during training.”
“Nope, Xiao Ji only knows the special moves it was born with.
As for others, I plan to wait until Xiao Ji grows up a bit more before discussing that.”
Teacher Yan thought about the side effects of Death Series moves and took another look at Xiao Ji, who seemed indistinguishable from a typical Eggshell Chicken, and suddenly understood something,
“As long as you think it’s okay, but don’t let your laziness delay Xiao Ji.”
Well, I’ll take my leave, Teacher Yan.”
After saying goodbye to Teacher Yan, Feng Yuan, with Xiao Ji on top of his head, headed to the cafeteria to eat.
In the cafeteria, he ran into an excited Qi Chen.
Feng Yuan greeted him and curiously asked,
You look so excited.”
Seeing it was Feng Yuan, Qi Chen took out his phone, pulled up a news page, and handed it to Feng Yuan, saying,
A bit puzzled, Feng Yuan took the phone and read the news, then looked at Qi Chen with some surprise and said,
“That pale man must be Old Wei, right?”
“That’s where your focus is?
That’s not the point, okay.”
Qi Chen said, annoyed.
Feng Yuan scratched his head and read the news more carefully, finally understanding why Qi Chen was so excited.
