Chapter 31: Zhou Yi's Favor! (Please keep reading!)

When Zhou Yi saw clearly the person flying in the sky using a high-level Soul Guidance Device, her eyes widened instantly.

"Xu... Xu Nian'an, how... how is this possible!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~~

One lap, two laps... ten laps, twenty laps... one hundred laps....

In the air, Xu Nian'an's speed was extremely fast; when only a quarter of the time had passed, at the half-hour mark, he had already flown one hundred laps, and at the same time, Xu Nian'an did not forget to frantically pedal his legs.

Xu Nian'an had not forgotten that what Zhou Yi said was to run; although he was flying now, this was indeed running in the air.

In any case, he would not leave the slightest chance for the other party to turn the tables.

"Damn it, I... absolutely will not... lose to you!"

On the ground, Zhou Yi looked at Xu Nian'an's back, her silver teeth clenched tightly together, her face beneath the wrinkles full of stubbornness.

She, Zhou Yi, a teacher, would absolutely not lose to her own... student.

Even if... this student had taken a shortcut.

Violent soul power erupted in an instant, and in a flash, Zhou Yi turned into a blue ray of light and disappeared from where she stood.

One hundred and ten laps.

By the time Xu Nian'an had flown one hundred and ten laps, Zhou Yi had already caught up halfway, reaching sixty laps.

Xu Nian'an, who was flying earnestly in the sky, only felt the temperature on his back rising rapidly; the next second, hot sweat began to slowly emerge.

At this moment, he had already begun to feel slightly strained, but it was not a big problem.

One hundred and fifty laps.

The white clothes on Xu Nian's body were already soaked through with sweat, and his speed was getting slower and slower.

This made it miserable for the students running on the playground; Zhou Yi and Xu Nian'an were acting out of spite, but they had become the ultimate victims.

Because whether it was Xu Nian'an in the sky or Zhou Yi on the ground, their speeds were very fast, and the gale force winds stirred up by their movement would knock them over from time to time.

There was no other way; they could only release their martial souls to resist the gale from the sky and the ground, running like madmen.

"Hot~ hot~ it's too hot, but I can't stop now."

Feeling the heat on his back becoming more and more intense, Xu Nian'an forcibly propped up his willpower; after his soul power increased last night, Xu Nian'an's soul power had seen a great improvement.

But, under the long-term flight of the Soul Guidance Device, it was still somewhat insufficient.

There was no other way; he could only take out a few medicinal pills brought from the Xuanming Sect from his Storage Ring and swallow them.

Two hundred laps!

An hour had already passed, and more than half of the one-hour time limit had elapsed.

If Xu Nian'an maintained his current speed, then finishing three hundred laps—one hundred and twenty kilometers—within two hours would absolutely be no problem at all.

His eyes swept over the figure still galloping beneath him.

At this time, Zhou Yi's lap count had reached one hundred and seventy; the gap between them was less than thirty.

This was because Xu Nian'an had started fast, slowed down midway because it was too hot, and his current speed was slower than Zhou Yi's.

If he did not increase his speed and continued to maintain this pace, Zhou Yi would undoubtedly overtake Xu Nian'an and be the first to complete three hundred laps within the next one hundred laps.

But would Xu Nian'an really let Zhou Yi win the victory?

The answer is... of course not.

If he were to let Zhou Yi win the victory, there would be no need for Xu Nian'an to run these laps at all; he could have completely and directly withdrawn from Class One and found the class where Jiang Nannan was.

The reason he wanted to compete was that he did not want to see Zhou Yi's smug smile, so he would absolutely not let Zhou Yi win the victory.

Thinking of this, a white light flashed over Xu Nian'an's body, and the temperature dropped rapidly.

Whoosh~

Two hundred and fifty laps.

Heat, for Xu Nian'an, was simply not a problem at all.

Not to mention that he possessed Extreme Ice, just his Second Martial Soul, the Vermilion Bird, even if it remained dormant, was innately an existence that possessed Extreme Fire.

Therefore, the heat generated by the long-term use of the Flight Soul Guidance Device was never a problem for Xu Nian'an.

Because Xu Nian'an came with his own physical liquid cooling; if one had to say there was a problem, it would probably be the issue of insufficient soul power.

This was also why Xu Nian'an did not dissipate the heat the first moment he sensed the Flight Soul Guidance Device heating up.

Because doing so might very well mean he would not be able to finish the three hundred laps at all.

"Damn it... clearly... clearly I sensed that his Flight Soul Guidance Device was generating huge thermal energy."

"It was obviously at the point of overload, why... why did his speed increase again?"

On the ground, Zhou Yi watched Xu Nian'an's speed increase; there was no other way, she could only continue to increase her speed, and a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring flashed on her body.

"I cannot lose... I cannot lose to my student, and what's more, a student who wants to pull strings to get into my class!"

Two hundred and eighty laps... two hundred and ninety-nine laps...

Arriving at the final four-hundred-meter lap, Zhou Yi relied on two Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings to finally reach a position level with Xu Nian'an.

"Won."

Arriving at the final lap, a smile curled the corners of Xu Nian'an's mouth.

He channeled his soul power into the Soul Guidance Device on his back; following the injection of Xu Nian'an's soul power, the Flight Soul Guidance Device on his back slowly unfolded, manifesting a pair of seven-colored wings.

The Six-level Array at the core of his back was activated.

Whoosh~ Bang! Boom!

As the seven-colored feathered wings on his back vibrated slightly, Xu Nian'an instantly streaked across as a white light and flew into the distance.

At the finish line, the ground collapsed, and Xu Nian'an slammed heavily into the ground.

Hum~

As a pale purple Soul Ring slowly rose and the smoke dissipated, Xu Nian'an slowly raised his right hand, wiping the blood that was flowing from the corner of his mouth.

The Ice Crystal Armor on his body, along with the purple thousand-year Soul Ring exclusive to it, flickered twice before being slowly retracted.

In the collapsed ground, there was currently a heavy metal block emitting black smoke.

"Sorry, Teacher Zhou, I think I should be the winner."

Zhou Yi only said to finish three hundred laps and did not restrict flying; in the original work, Huo Yuhao could be carried by Wang Dong to fly, so why couldn't he fly himself?

He turned his head to look at the scrapped Flight Soul Guidance Device to the side, tsk~ what a pity.

A Level 6 Soul Guidance Device, made from a ten-thousand-year soul bone, with a selling price of several hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.

What is important is not that it was made from a ten-thousand-year soul bone, but that it has level one, two, three... arrays.

It is a Level 6 Array combined from multiple arrays; this technique is very special, which means that as long as you have soul power, any Soul Master can use it.

It is just a matter of whether one can push the performance of this Soul Guidance Device to the limit.

It was obtained by Xu Zong at a Sun Moon Empire auction to ensure Xu Nian'an's safety; it is said to be the work of a Seven-level Peak Soul Guidance Master.

As for why Xu Zong would find such a Soul Guidance Device for Xu Nian'an, that was of course to save his life—if you can't beat them, you can still run.

It's just that he really didn't expect that on the first day of school at Shrek, it would...

"Is it worth it?"

Zhou Yi took a deep look at Xu Nian'an.

Xu Nian'an did not meet Zhou Yi's gaze; he looked down and noticed that Zhou Yi was walking with a slight stagger.

Beneath her cheongsam, the ankles of her fair feet in high heels had already turned bright red.

Wasn't Zhou Yi trying to trap him?

Could it be that he wasn't allowed to trap her back?

That's right, Xu Nian'an saw that Zhou Yi was wearing high heels, which is why he insisted on dragging her along to run.

Watching her walk with a bit of a wobble, Xu Nian'an knew that his goal had been achieved.

A unique sense of satisfaction swept through his entire body; it was just like this, just like this...

"Worth it, very worth it!"

【Ding, Zhou Yi's favorability increased by one!】

【Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the goddess Zhou Yi!】

(PS: Dear brothers and sisters, when I was just writing the book, I saw someone say they wanted me to include Zhou Yi as a love interest, so you all praised and liked it, but now that I've written up to here, some people are saying not to include her?

What should I do? I'll check the comment section again, hurry and decide, hurry and choose the person you like in the book reviews (with pictures), otherwise the author can't see it. I really don't know how to write it, but there's no choice—the readers have a request, and the author will really go for it!

Those who are able, join the group; the author is online twenty-four hours a day in the group, and if I'm not, I'm typing.)

Thanks for following the read, I thank you all. There's no other way; if it weren't for a lack of money, I would definitely go to Thailand, and after coming back, I would repay you all.

Thanks to the big boss with the suffix 4524 for the monthly ticket!
