Chapter 3

A girl's voice came from the corridor. It was a little cold and familiar. In Bai Xiaowen's mind, a girl's figure quickly flashed. He heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed.

Footsteps sounded, and a young girl with a ponytail and wearing a tailored white training suit walked into the ward.

"I'm here to visit Bai Xiaowen." Zhou Yi's originally ruthless face was now filled with smiles. He said politely, "Although it was a slip of the hand, it's still my responsibility. I didn't expect the school belle, Beauty Li, to be here too. If I had known, we would have come together. "

This beautiful girl with a ponytail and a white exercise suit was the school belle and straight-A student of Chihuo Middle School, Li Shuyi.

Li Shuyi glanced at Zhou Yi and a faint look of disgust flashed across her face. She said, "Zhou Yi, your Basic Combat Skills have reached level 4?"

Zhou Yi smiled apologetically and said, "It's okay. I'm still far from you."

"Bai Xiaowen's Basic Combat Skills are only level 1," Li Shuyi said quietly. "Level 4 against level 1. How can there be a slip of the hand? Do you think I'm an idiot? Or do you think the whole class and the whole school are idiots? "

Zhou Yi was a little embarrassed. "Shuyi, you know that although the probability of this happening is low, it's not impossible. I can only say that Bai Xiaowen and I have bad luck."

"If your father wasn't the CEO of Bo Tong Pharmaceuticals and donated 30 million yuan to the school, do you think you wouldn't be punished?" Li Shuyi's beautiful eyebrows furrowed and her tone became colder. "Bai Xiaowen and I are just ordinary friends. We were walking home together after school. Is it worth it for you to kill him like this? You're getting more and more shameless! "

Zhou Yi was a little annoyed and glanced at Bai Xiaowen.

Although Bai Xiaowen was wearing a hospital gown, his handsome appearance was impeccable. In contrast, Zhou Yi, who was wearing branded clothes, looked like a crab in bright armor.

If it had been someone else who was close to Li Shuyi, Zhou Yi might not have killed him. However, he was naturally jealous of Bai Xiaowen.

"Leave. I don't want this to happen again. Otherwise, I'll do the same to you in the combat class!" Li Shuyi warned.

Zhou Yi's expression changed drastically. In the end, he forced out a smile. "Shu Yi, I really didn't do it on purpose … Okay, okay, okay, I'll leave now." After Li Shuyi looked away, he glared fiercely at Bai Xiaowen. Obviously, he was holding a grudge against Bai Xiaowen.

Wu Xiaoyan glanced at Bai Xiaowen and hesitated for a second. Then, she quickly followed Zhou Yi and left the hospital. From the beginning to the end, she did not say a word to Bai Xiaowen.

Only Li Shuyi and Bai Xiaowen were left in the ward.

"Sister Shuyi, please take a seat!" Xiaojun sensibly pulled over a high stool and said to Bai Xiaowen, "Brother, Sister Shuyi came to see you every day when you were in a coma."

"Thank you." Bai Xiaowen sighed in relief.

"This is all my fault." Li Shuyi looked at Bai Xiaowen with a trace of apology and concern. "I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble. I've already warned Zhou Yi. He won't dare to do anything to you so blatantly. However, you still have to be careful of some of his tricks behind your back. "

Bai Xiaowen nodded. He was a little surprised. Li Shuyi usually kept a low profile in class. Everyone only knew that she was the first in every mock exam, but they did not know how strong she was. Naturally, they categorized her as the same as Zhou Yi.

However, judging from today's situation, Li Shuyi should have completely defeated Zhou Yi. Otherwise, Zhou Yi would not have been so afraid of her.

Bai Xiaowen had already used his Insight Inherent Skill to observe Zhou Yi's personal attributes. Now, he looked at Li Shuyi and activated his Insight Inherent Skill again.

A message was transmitted to Bai Xiaowen's mind.

Li Shuyi

Race: Humanoid/Human

Inherent Skill: Battle Zeal (Inactive)

Attributes: Strength 4.9, Agility 7.7, Physique 4.1, Spirit 3.5

Specialty: Basic Combat Level 5, Basic Machinery (One-handed Sword) Level 5, Basic Meditation Level 3

"Li Shuyi's total attributes are 20.2. She has already reached the threshold of an Awakened!" Bai Xiaowen was shocked.

Under the influence of the psionic particles, an ordinary person's body would undergo "preliminary digitization." This was equivalent to opening up the path of evolution. They could strengthen their attributes through various methods. Once the total of the four main attributes reached 20 points, they would need to enter the "Spiritual Realm" to undergo a test.

After passing the test, they would be able to "change professions." Their bodies would be completely digitized and they would become a powerful Awakened! Therefore, a total attribute of 20 points was a threshold. Earthlings who had reached the threshold but had yet to undergo the test or pass the test were called "Awakened Awakened!"

Bai Xiaowen looked at his own attributes. Compared to Li Shuyi, there was a huge gap. He only had a slight advantage in Spirit. The first three physical attributes (Strength, Agility, and Physique) were far inferior, not to mention the difference in their basic specialties.

Even Zhou Yi was suppressed by Li Shuyi in all aspects. If the two of them were to fight, Zhou Yi would not be able to last more than a minute. Moreover, Li Shuyi's Inherent Skill, Battle Zeal, had yet to be activated. Her potential was far greater than Zhou Yi's, who did not have any Inherent Skill.

Bai Xiaowen had a better understanding of his own talent, "Insight".

Insight Inherent Skill was too powerful!

Before the Inherent Skill was awakened, even the person himself would not know if he had any Inherent Skill! However, Bai Xiaowen, who had the gift of insight, was able to see it!

With his Insight Talent alone, Bai Xiaowen was destined to be the most perceptive scout. He could discover talents with great potential and invest a large amount of resources to mass produce Awakened ones with Talent!

There was a huge difference between an Awakened and an Awakened with or without innate abilities. In a 'Guild' of Awakened ones, the Awakened ones with innate talents were the backbone of the Guild. Awakened ones without talent, even if they put in double the effort, it would be difficult for them to achieve as much as the former.

If a major power knew that Bai Xiaowen had such talent, they would definitely offer the most generous conditions to invite Bai Xiaowen to join them.

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaowen did not have the qualifications to convince others. He was just an ordinary third-year high school student. Normally, he would not even have the chance to meet an Awakened, let alone recommend himself in front of the leader of a major guild.

Moreover, even if there was a chance to recommend himself, Bai Xiaowen would not dare to do it. Every major guild had allies and enemies. If their enemies found out about this, would they attack Bai Xiaowen? The answer was yes. With Bai Xiaowen's current weak strength, if he were to be involved in the vortex of the power struggle between the Awakened ones, any small wave would be enough to kill him.

Bai Xiaowen made up his mind to disguise his insight talent as an ordinary detection talent. He could not let others know that he could spy on other people's innate talents.

Li Shuyi had always been low-key. He did not know that his strength as a quasi-awakened had been detected by Bai Xiaowen. He continued, "I'm going to leave school for a while."

"The college entrance exam is coming soon. You're leaving school?" Bai Xiaowen said.

Li Shuyi shook his head and said, "I'm not taking the college entrance exam."

"Admission without taking the exam?" Bai Xiaowen reacted quickly, "Congratulations. Which university are you going to?"

"It's in this city, Jinghai University."

Bai Xiaowen gave him a thumbs up, "Awesome! You're worthy of being the top student of our class 17. "

Jinghai University was one of the top five key universities in Hua Xia. It was also ranked within the top 100 in the world. Li Shuyi was admitted in advance. Jinghai University must have valued his strength as a quasi-awakened.

Bai Xiaowen further thought that Li Shuyi had left Crimson Fire High School to enter the Spirit Realm and take the awakened test. Perhaps the next time he saw Li Shuyi, she would be a real awakened one.

Bai Xiaowen truly felt the gap between the two of them.

Li Shuyi glanced at Bai Xiaowen. After hesitating, he said, "Bai Xiaowen, I have a favor to ask of you."

"What is it?" Bai Xiaowen was a little curious.

"Promise me first," Li Shuyi said with a mysterious smile, "or I won't say it."

"Okay," Bai Xiaowen agreed. There was nothing for Li Shuyi to scheme against him now. Moreover, he had a good relationship with Li Shuyi.

Li Shuyi said, "I used to go to my family's pharmacy to help after school. After I left, the pharmacy was short of people, so I want to ask you to take my place and do a part-time job for a few months … "

"A part-time job in a pharmacy? Is there a shortage of people for such a good job? " Bai Xiaowen asked subconsciously. When he saw Li Shuyi's unnatural expression, he quickly understood that Li Shuyi was deliberately giving him a chance.

In the psionic era, people who were good at making strengthening drugs were called pharmacists. Items that contained a large number of psionic particles could not be processed mechanically. They could only be mixed and fused manually by pharmacists. Therefore, the output was low and the price was high. As a result, pharmaceutics became a popular subject and pharmacists were very respected.

The profession of pharmacist had always been passed down from teacher to student. Therefore, many people racked their brains to go to a pharmacy just to be an apprentice. As long as the Li family's pharmacy posted a recruitment notice, even university students would rush to work for them. Bai Xiaowen was only a senior in high school.

"We are indeed short of people … Are you willing to go?" Li Shuyi's fingers curled around the corner of his white exercise clothes.

"Okay, I'm willing to go," Bai Xiaowen agreed with a smile. Then, he said solemnly, "Thank you."

Li Shuyi smiled and said, "You're doing me a favor … There's no need to thank me. Rest well for the next few days. You can report to the store at any time. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. "She took out a big bag of fruits from behind her as if she was performing a magic trick and placed it on Bai Xiaowen's bedside table.

"You're too kind." Bai Xiaowen thanked her profusely.

Li Shuyi walked to the door and suddenly turned around with a smile. "Bai Xiaowen, I noticed that you've changed a lot. That's good. Goodbye! "

Seeing Li Shuyi's figure disappear, Bai Xiaowen felt a little disappointed. Then, he shook his head and cast aside some thoughts that he should not be having at this stage.

"I think Sister Shuyi is right. Brother has changed a lot," Xiaojun said softly. "Sister Shuyi wanted to help you, but you kept rejecting her. Everyone was unhappy. Also, when you were facing that bastard Zhou Yi, your performance was very reliable. "

Bai Xiaowen was a little confused. He remembered himself in another time and space and could clearly feel the changes in himself.

He did not know if it was because his two lives overlapped or because he had the Mystic Eye and the super brain, but Bai Xiaowen noticed that his personality had changed a lot. He had become more confident and calm. In Xiaojun's words, he had become more reliable.
