Chapter 85: All The Girls Have A Crush on Him
He then handed over several detailed lists. Although he didn\'t recommend the sparring tasks for Tang San, he also included a list of those.
"Understood, thank you, senior brother." Tang San spread the task lists on the table to examine them.
Du Bai, standing nearby, grumbled a bit, "Senior brother, how come I’ve never seen these tasks? I only get tasks like delivering messages or purchasing things, and the rewards are really small."
Wu Bingji chuckled, "You, little brother? You can’t even protect yourself, so how would you hunt demons and fight academy students? It\'s important to know your limits, kid."
Du Bai said, "I\'m not the little brother anymore. Tang San is."
Wu Bingji looked at him and then at Tang San, shaking his head. "If he wants to, it might not be long before he becomes the eldest senior brother. That\'s why I call him Little Tang, not Little Brother."
Du Bai\'s mouth twitched, but recalling the battle between Wu Bingji and Tang San earlier, he couldn\'t say much. After all, one had to acknowledge the superior strength and combat ability of others.
Tang San reviewed the task list, focusing mainly on hunting demonic beasts. Demonic beasts were essentially members of the demon clan who had yet to awaken their spiritual intelligence. Tang San also ate demonic beast meat, which significantly benefited body tempering.
Moreover, he noticed that the rewards for hunting demonic beasts were the highest among the three types of tasks. At least, they were rewarded in aetherhorn coins, along with naturae coins and even higher-valued Empyrean coins. Some of these were truly substantial rewards.
Tang San was most interested in hunting demonic beasts, not only because of the generous rewards but also because he wanted to see if the bloodline power of demonic beasts could be directly devoured. He was curious about the differences between their bloodline power and that of the demon clans.
After reviewing the list, Tang San asked Du Bai, "Where is the small store? Could you take me to see it?"
Du Bai smiled, "Right, let\'s go to the store. Once you see what\'s there, you\'ll know what you want and you can choose the tasks so you can earn money for what you want as fast as possible."
Tang San bowed to Wu Bingji again, and as he was about to leave, Wu Bingji said, "Little Tang, if you\'re free tonight, I\'d like to come to see you to discuss some things about elemental control. Is that alright?"
This senior brother had no air of superiority about him, nor did he show any negative emotions due to Tang San\'s display of strength in the previous practical test. Tang San could feel his sincerity and smiled in response. "Of course, that\'s fine, eldest senior brother. You\'re being too polite. Let\'s discuss it together."
"Alright, I\'ll come to you after dinner tonight," Wu Bingji said with a smile.
Du Bai left Wu Bingji\'s room and whispered, "The eldest senior brother is such a nice guy. He’s really the kindest person in the academy. Everyone gets along well with him, and he\'s really strong. Almost all the girls have a crush on him, even Cheng Zicheng. Let me tell you, beating her is nothing. If you beat the eldest senior brother, though, she might just go all out to murder you."
Just as Tang San was about to say something, a sharp scream sounded from nearby, and the next instant, Du Bai was sent flying.
Then Tang San saw Cheng Zicheng spread her wings and carry Du Bai to the rooftop, knocking on his head repeatedly with her wings, "Do you want to die?! Huh?! Do you?!"
Seeing Cheng Zicheng\'s face turn red in anger, Tang San knew that Du Bai was right on the mark. Heh, she sure has mature thoughts for her age! Of course, it’s probably just an innocent crush.
A brother in trouble can\'t be left unaided, though, and Tang San unfortunately needed Du Bai to take him to the store.
With a light tap of his toes on the ground, Tang San leaped onto the rooftop. "Senior sister, please, don’t interrupt our conversation like that. Du Bai was just telling me something and it seemed important."
"Hmm?" Cheng Zicheng paused, turned to look at him, and saw Tang San\'s honest and naive eyes. "Did you not hear what he just said?"
Tang San replied, "He said that the eldest senior brother is really nice and very strong. I didn\'t catch the rest before you took him to the rooftop. Is there something wrong with the eldest senior brother?"
Cheng Zicheng glared at Du Bai and said, "No, what could be wrong about him? The eldest senior brother is nice. I\'m annoyed that he was talking about others behind their backs."
"Can\'t I even compliment someone?" Du Bai lamented, with two bumps already formed on his head.
Cheng Zicheng glared at him and raised her wings to hit again. Tang San quickly raised his hand to stop her. "Senior sister, calm down. We\'re all friends here. The eldest senior brother even arranged to come to my place tonight to discuss elemental control. Do you want to join us?"
"Did the eldest senior brother invite you?" Cheng Zicheng paused.
"Yes! The eldest senior brother is really good at controlling the ice element, and I want to learn from him. He suggested coming over to my room," Tang San explained.
Cheng Zicheng\'s red face gradually faded as she asked, "Is it appropriate for me to go? I\'m not that skilled at elemental control."
Tang San said, "Actually, when you use your Golden Roc Transformation, you also utilize the power of wind, don’t you? I think we can discuss and help each other with the wind element."
Cheng Zicheng "reluctantly" agreed. "Alright then. What time tonight?"
"After dinner, in my room," Tang San said with a smile.
"Okay," Cheng Zicheng said, not even glancing at Du Bai, and floated down from the rooftop.
Rubbing his head, Du Bai looked at Tang San and then at Cheng Zicheng, who had left, "Brother, your ability to spout nonsense so seriously is incredible! My horizons have been expanded today!"
Tang San laughed. "It\'s not nonsense. It\'s emotional intelligence. You’d do well to learn some of that. Once you do, you won\'t get beaten up as much."
As they descended from the rooftop, Du Bai was still grimacing in pain from the bruises. He muttered, "To think she dares to hit the academy’s mascot.... She\'s asking for bad luck."
In the distance, Cheng Zicheng, who had just reached her room and pushed the door open, inexplicably slipped, stumbled over the threshold, and twisted her foot strangely, spraining her ankle.
"Ah! It hurts!"
Meanwhile, Du Bai, accompanied by Tang San, had arrived at the courtyard\'s southern room.
He knocked on the door, and a pleasant voice from inside said, "Come in."
When he pushed the door open, Tang San saw a sign with "Convenience Store" written on it. The characters were somewhat crooked, definitely not a sample of masterful calligraphy.
But the moment he entered, he immediately felt something else. The place had a very particular smell, a mix of medicinal herbs and fragrant aromas. Most importantly, the spiritual energy here was extremely dense.
Kali City had rich spiritual energy to begin with, especially near Kali Academy. However, this room was undoubtedly the place with the densest spiritual energy Tang San had ever been to. There were fluctuations of various elemental energies, and even the air felt somewhat thick due to the overly rich spiritual energy.
Even without using his Discerning Eye, Tang San could sense a blurriness in the air here. It was not due to pollution or smoke, but because of the ridiculous density of spiritual energy.
Almost subconsciously, he took a deep breath, and immediately, his bloodline felt slightly stimulated. However, he also quickly noticed a problem. Although the energy here was extremely dense, it was also very mixed. At a first glance, this room seemed to be a holy land for cultivation, but processing this mixed elemental energy was bound to be a serious pain for the average person.
