"This is... Posa Lotus?"

She had only heard of this name before, but she didn't expect to see it by chance.

And - extremely beautiful.

Rong Xiu looked at her sideways:

"like?"

Shangguan Yue smiled:

"I like it! This Posa lotus sprouts in a hundred years, grows in a hundred years, and blooms in three hundred years. To see this, it takes a full five hundred years to wait, which is really rare."

She looked at her carefully for a few more times and shook her head with regret.

"It's a pity that one seems to be about to lose."

She withdrew her gaze.

"let's go."

......

Lingxiao College conducts routine assessments once a month.

But this time, it's especially special.

The two new students who have entered the school have once again refreshed the cognition of the people in the college.

After the Warrior List, Shangguan Yue also made strong progress on the Xuanshi List and the Tianyi List!

Everyone had long heard that she was a versatile talent like the dean, but in fact she didn't care too much, and thought that the strongest one should be a warrior.

Unexpectedly, her rankings on the other two lists were much better than those on the Warriors list!

And Rong Xiu—

He was on the list of weapon refiners.

Everyone: "..."

At this point, they finally realized how terrifying the two people who arrived this time were.

And they have since started a tragic time when they were crushed by these two people.

......

After the assessment was over, everyone looked at the two of them with different eyes.

Even if Shangguan Yue lost in a fight with Rong Xiu, they already knew clearly that this girl was also a pervert who was not as good as Rong Xiu!

However, Shangguan Yue was very frustrated in this game.

She didn't expect that Rong Xiu was actually a weapon refiner!

This scene must be retrieved!

So, just after the assessment was over, she took Rong Xiu up the mountain again to decide the outcome in the chess game.

Shangguan Yue was aggressive and murderous.

And then—she lost again.

Rong Xiu still narrowly won.

"You... haven't tried your best before, right?"

She grinded her teeth.

Rong Xiu smiled and said:

"No. You have made great progress, but - I'm not idle either."

Shangguan Yue sneered lightly.

"You think I don't know? Recently, you went out early and came back late, and it was difficult for you to meet again. You wouldn't have found another place to practice secretly, right?"

Rong Xiu focused on the key points:

"You really want to see me?"

Shangguan Yue: "..."

"I seem to have made you angry a lot lately? So, I prepared a gift to apologize to you."

Shangguan Yue was stunned: "No need for this--"

"Look back."

Shangguan Yue turned around in a daze.

Only then did she realize that their game was going to be late in the evening again.

Suddenly, her eyes froze.

The golden turtle is sinking, and the warm orange flares dye large clouds, almost making half of the sky a dreamy color.

In the distance, among the mountains, a lake is shining with rippling waves.

Countless swaying lotus bloom quietly above the lake.

The pink and white translucent petals sway in the wind, blending with the brocade rays of the sky in the evening, like a painting of thick ink and colorful, rich and passionate.

Rong Xiu came to her side.

"Do you like it?"

Shangguan Yue's heartbeats.

She turned her head and stared straight at him.

For a moment, the corners of her lips were slightly bent and almost looked into his eyes.
Chapter completed!
