Outside the small grove, several people lie on the ground, groaning.
In the center, Lin Xiu clapped his hands, glanced around, and walked towards one person.
"Don't come over, don't come over."
With his legs pushing against the ground, Luo Bu spoke, blood uncontrollably flowing from his mouth.
As Lin Xiu, with his face obscured from the light, approached, he appeared to Luo Bu as the most terrifying demon.
Luo Bu's strength is not weak, he is a 6 Star Dou Practitioner.
However.
He underestimated Lin Xiu's strength.
Although Lin Xiu hasn't been in school for long, he has the advantage of having a character panel. It's not easy for an ordinary person to advance 1 Star in a month, but for Lin Xiu, it's very simple.
In addition, Luo Bu couldn't imagine that Lin Xiu would actually possess a Black Rank Dou Technique.
What's most terrifying is that Lin Xiu's proficiency and power in Dou Techniques are not at all like those of a beginner.
"Don't you want to know what happened in the woods that day?"
Despite his retreat, Lin Xiu still walked up to Luo Bu, squatting down beside him as he looked into his frightened eyes.
Hearing Lin Xiu's words, perhaps driven by an obsession in his heart, dispelled Luo Bu's fear.
He subconsciously asked, "What happened?"
"A man and a woman, both young and strong, tinder meeting a blaze. You can imagine, right?"
Lin Xiu's voice was like a devil's whisper, and Luo Bu seemed to picture something, his blood boiling, his face flushed.
He watched as Lin Xiu slowly lowered his head and whispered softly in his own ear, "Truly deserving of being the one you like, Xiao Yu is indeed... very skilled."
As the words fell, Luo Bu's eyes instantly became bloodshot, wide open, staring fixedly at Lin Xiu, then he spewed out a mouthful of blood, falling into unconsciousness.
Even before Luo Bu's body began to tremble, Lin Xiu had already stood up and smoothly avoided him.
Then, Lin Xiu no longer looked at anyone else, turning around and leaving.
Along the way.
Perhaps having vented his emotions, Lin Xiu's steps were light, a slight smile on his lips, seeming to be in a good mood.
He quickened his pace until he returned to the dormitory, finally encountering no further incidents.
When he saw the dormitory door, Lin Xiu paused.
He saw a group of people crowded at the door, with various expressions, their gazes peering through the window.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Xiu approached.
Seeing Lin Xiu coming back, the others were startled and hurried back to their own dormitories, not saying a word.
"Unbelievable."
Glancing at the dormitories, Lin Xiu reached out and pushed the door, a strong medicinal scent hitting him.
Inside, it was quiet, no one spoke, not even a candle was lit.
"Who's there?"
Standing at the doorway, Lin Xiu's face was shrouded in shadows, making it impossible for the people inside to see clearly.
"Lin Dun, it's me. Why does your voice sound hoarse?" Lin Xiu felt puzzled as he lit a candle.
The fire immediately illuminated the room.
Each bed had a person lying on it, their arms or thighs wrapped in bandages, their bruised faces visible as they looked up.
"What happened?" Lin Xiu hurried to Lin Dun's bedside, looking at the young man whose arms were both wrapped in bandages.
"We got beaten up," Lin Dun said with a bitter smile.
"Who beat you guys?" Lin Xiu paused, realizing he had only been gone for about a week himself.
Before, there were no grudges with anyone, but when I came back, the dormitory was almost wiped out.
Lin Xiu turned to look at the other side, "Xiao Ning, how did you end up like this?"
As his gaze swept over, his pupils slightly contracted.
If it weren't for a head still visible on the bed, Lin Xiu wouldn't have believed that there was still someone lying there.
Xiao Ning was completely wrapped in bandages, his face swollen like a pig's head.
Seeing Lin Xiu, tears instantly welled up in his eyes, trembling with tears, "Brother Xiu, you're finally back."
"Yeah, tell me, what happened?" Seeing Xiao Ning in such a miserable state, Lin Xiu felt that as a person, he couldn't bring himself to blame anyone.
After all, as the dormitory leader, from Xiao Ning's injuries, it was clear he had never backed down.
In the dormitory, it was mostly Xiao Ning talking, occasionally supplemented by Lin Dun.
After listening to the beginning, Lin Xiu understood the whole story.
It was roughly similar to the original plot, with Xun'er coming to school and gradually attracting attention.
However, Xun'er was aloof in temperament and didn't easily engage with others, especially the opposite sex.
So, some people who wanted to pursue Xun'er naturally tried to cater to her preferences, turning their attention to Xiao Ning, intending to inquire about her likes and dislikes from him.
However, Xiao Ning also harbored thoughts about Xun'er, and being Xiao Yan's cousin, he naturally wouldn't betray his family.
Therefore, using some forceful means became quite normal.
"That Bai Shan is despicable! Once I recover, Brother Xiu, besides eating and using the restroom, I'll spend all my time training with you."
Xiao Ning gritted his teeth, as if Bai Shan were in front of him right now, he would rush up and bite him.
"Wait a minute." Lin Xiu could understand the earlier part, but what did the latter part mean? He looked at Xiao Ning, "How does that relate to training with me?"
"Brother Xiu, I was blind and misunderstood your intentions. I mistook a villain's heart for a gentleman's belly and failed to recognize your kindness."
Xiao Ning sobbed, filled with deep regret.
It turned out that on that day, their group was intercepted by Bai Shan and his men. After a fruitless conversation, a conflict arose.
During the fight, neither Xiao Ning nor the others in the dormitory expected that apart from Lin Xiu, there was another formidable fighter among them.
That person was Lin Dun.
All along, they had mocked Lin Dun as foolish, letting someone beat him up every day and even serving him meals after being beaten, as if he enjoyed being treated that way.
Even Xiao Ning thought Lin Dun must have something wrong with his head.
However...
On that day of the fight, Lin Dun displayed astonishing combat prowess. Facing three senior students, he managed to take down two of them.
Because of his impressive performance, even Bai Shan admired him, instructing his men to go easy on Lin Dun and expressing interest in recruiting him.
At first, Xiao Ning didn't quite understand, lying in bed these past few days, but suddenly it dawned on him.
Living together, studying together, eating together, why should Lin Dun be stronger than him?
After all, he, Xiao Ning, was from the Xiao family of Wu Tan City, one of the three major families of Wu Tan City. There was no reason he should be inferior to Lin Dun.
After much thought, Xiao Ning could only think of one thing.
That was to spar with Lin Xiu!
Afterward, Xiao Ning also asked Lin Dun and received his affirmative answer.
During the same period, Lin Dun could outperform other roommates, surpass him, Xiao Ning, precisely because he sparred with Lin Xiu, gaining a lot of experience and guidance.
Learning from pain!
Xiao Ning felt that being beaten by Lin Xiu was better than being beaten by others. At least, he had a closer relationship with Lin Xiu.
Firstly, getting beaten by him wasn't shameful, and secondly, Lin Xiu always held back when he struck.
Unlike others, their hits really penetrate to the bone!
Moreover, the most important thing is that being beaten by others, besides being covered in injuries, there are no other benefits.
Xiao Ning didn't think he was a fool; he knew how to make the right choice.
