Chapter 356: The Young Girl and the Newcomer Getting Close

Shi Feng Zaoqi walked up to the two, raised her chin slightly, her eyes filled with disdain: "Oh, isn't this the newcomer? What, getting so close with a young girl the moment you arrive?" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, but her words carried heavy mockery.

Li An heard the voice, turned his head, saw Shi Feng Zaoqi, and immediately grew alert in his heart. He frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes, but quickly regained his composure. He silently stepped in front of Guo Yao and said calmly, "I wonder what this Young Lady wishes to teach me?"

Seeing Li An's action, Shi Feng Zaoqi's fire of jealousy burned even hotter. She let out a cold sneer, took a step forward, and a powerful aura radiated from her body: "Teaching is out of the question; I just want to see how much ability you have, to be so arrogant before me." As she spoke, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and the surrounding air seemed to become oppressive.

Li An felt the threat from Shi Feng Zaoqi; his heartbeat quickened slightly, but his face remained calm. He secretly activated the system, analyzing Shi Feng Zaoqi's abilities. Moments later, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"I think you might have mistaken the person," Li An said unhurriedly, his voice steady and firm, "I am merely a newcomer who has just arrived and has not offended you."

Hearing Li An's words, Shi Feng Zaoqi did not hold back; instead, she grew even more furious. She waved her hand violently, and a powerful telekinetic force rushed at Li An: "Less nonsense; if you do not obediently make a fool of yourself today, do not think you can leave here."

Li An watched the incoming telekinetic force, his eyes sharpening. He quickly sidestepped to dodge, shouting at the same time: "Guo Yao, be careful!" Guo Yao, frightened by this sudden turn of events, turned pale; she instinctively hid behind Li An, her hands tightly gripping the hem of his clothes.

"Want to dodge? Not so easy!" Seeing Li An dodge, a hint of unwillingness flashed in Shi Feng Zaoqi's eyes; she launched her telekinetic force again. This time, the telekinetic force was more surging, like a violent tide sweeping toward Li An.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Li An's forehead; he knew Shi Feng Zaoqi's ability could not be underestimated. But he was not panicked; based on the weaknesses analyzed by the system, he reacted quickly. He focused his spirit, forming an energy barrier before him that blocked Shi Feng Zaoqi's attack.

"Hmph, you have some skill." Seeing her attack blocked, a hint of surprise flashed in Shi Feng Zaoqi's eyes, but she quickly returned to coldness, "However, this is not enough." As she spoke, she increased the output of her telekinetic force; the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart, emitting a piercing sound.

Li An felt the pressure growing greater; his arm trembled slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted. He knew that once he slackened, he would be defeated by Shi Feng Zaoqi. He took a deep breath, mobilized the strength of his entire body, and resisted Shi Feng Zaoqi's telekinetic force.

Just as the two sides were deadlocked, more and more people gathered around. They were all attracted by this fierce battle, casting surprised glances one after another. "Isn't that Shi Feng Zaoqi? Why is she fighting with a newcomer?" "Who is that newcomer? He can actually block Shi Feng Zaoqi's attack." People's murmurs rose and fell, making this battle even more eye-catching.

"It seems I cannot continue like this," Li An thought secretly in his heart; suddenly his eyes lit up, and he thought of a plan. Taking advantage of the instant when Shi Feng Zaoqi increased her telekinetic output, he suddenly withdrew the energy barrier while his body rushed forward quickly.
