Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Appreciating It?

The delightful change was none other than the brightening of several icons in the Postnatal Realm reward section of the system, which had previously been grayed out.

Clearly, once the quantity of Qi Condensing Pills was sufficient, the corresponding exchange conditions were naturally met.

However, even though he had enough Qi Condensing Pills, Ye Haochuan’s cultivation level was not high enough; rewards from the Postnatal Late Stage and Postnatal Peak remained out of reach, so their icons were still gray.

Now, with his cultivation boundary elevated, his original martial skills such as Meteor Fist and Meteor Step had fallen far behind, and it was necessary to update and upgrade.

After browsing through the reward section for a while, Ye Haochuan decisively exchanged for Technique Manuals of the Postnatal Mid-Stage, such as ”Nine Tyrant Dragons Fist” and ”Dragon Flight and Tiger Step,” to serve as protective techniques.

In addition, he exchanged for a ”Compendium of Talisman Spells,” a book about crafting talismans.

The reason he chose this book was that he considered the danger Xiao Haimei had faced twice in quick succession; had he not been notified in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Now that she had become his woman, he must find a way to ensure her safety.

But the problem was, he couldn’t be by her side at all times.

Therein lay the great use of the ”Compendium of Talisman Spells.”

For example, a jade pendant charged with a peace charm, if worn regularly, could effectively neutralize all kinds of disasters, like the common car accident, ensuring momentary safety.

Then there was the jade pendant charged with a Warning Talisman. With this item, in the face of danger and when it was too late for a phone call, shattering it would immediately alert Ye Haochuan, the one who charged it, to the danger so he could come to the rescue.

With the exchange of these few manuals, Ye Haochuan had spent over three hundred Qi Condensing Pills.

Seeing there were still some left, Ye Haochuan then exchanged for an iron claw worth one hundred Qi Condensing Pills, confident that combined with the Bone Fracture Hand, its power would be greatly enhanced.

Feeling he’d exchanged enough for now, Ye Haochuan felt a burst of excitement and went through all the manuals once.

Half an hour later, everything was clear in his chest, he gently kissed the forehead of the sleeping Xiao Haimei, then tiptoed out of the bedroom to the balcony!

Dragon Flight and Tiger Step!

With a sudden breath sinking into his Dantian, Ye Haochuan’s body slightly bent as he vaulted from the balcony like a dragon or tiger.

Compared to Meteor Step, Dragon Flight and Tiger Step was obviously far superior.

Meteor Step focused more on ground movement, while Dragon Flight and Tiger Step allowed for mid-air maneuvers, with the power and agility of both dragon and tiger.

In no time, Ye Haochuan landed on the ground. At this late hour, he wasn’t worried about being seen by anyone.

”Tiger Steps and Dragon Strides!”

With a soft grunt, Ye Haochuan employed the steps and soon arrived at Haishan University’s sports field.

The gate to the sports field was closed, but that didn’t hinder him. With a leap, he vaulted into the high-walled enclosure.

Roaming around, now left, now right, up and down, what seemed chaotic was actually full of profound intricacies, doubling the speed of his original Meteor Step.

”Tiger Pounce Dragon Roam!”

”Dragon Soars and Phoenix Dances!”

Ye Haochuan’s speed increased more and more, and the four-hundred-meter track of the vast Haishan University sports field was covered in just five minutes, running no less than thirty laps.

While running, Ye Haochuan also practiced the martial techniques he had just comprehended, including the nine moves of the Nine Tyrant Dragons Fist!

”Dragon Emerging from the Sea!”

”Dragon Roaming Vast Seas!”

”Dragon Soars and Phoenix Dances!”

”Dragon Fighting in the Sea!”

”Dragon Soaring in the Sky!”

...

As time ticked by, Ye Haochuan’s techniques became more and more proficient, and it wasn’t until three o’clock in the morning that he stopped practicing and went back to rest.

Returning to the bedroom, Xiao Haimei was still deep in sleep. Afterward, he showered in the bathroom before returning to bed and falling soundly asleep beside Xiao Haimei.

The next morning, under the influence of his biological clock, Ye Haochuan woke up at half-past six.

Although he had only gone to bed after midnight, thanks to the Longevity Technique, his spirit was not only not languishing, but also vibrant and full of vigor.

Xiao Haimei was still deep in slumber, Ye Haochuan subconsciously checked his phone, only to unexpectedly find that the Huaxia Dragon Group software system on his phone had popped up with multiple responses.

However, these replies were almost all from the same sect members from last night, declining to add him as a friend, with some even responding with abusive language.

Moments later, the other party sent a flirtatious emoji, teasing with words, ”Hehe, little brother, idle talk is useless, why not blow up a photo for big sis?”.

Blow up a photo?

Shit, to think an Ancient Martial Arts Sect would have such a woman, unbelievable!

Ye Haochuan was shocked, but he also felt a surge of heat within him. However, to send her a photo of himself, that was daydreaming! It would make more sense for her to blow up a photo of herself!

He was very clear about one thing: this was an internal app for his sect. With this woman’s identity and background unknown, if she played a prank and publicized his photo within the Ancient Martial Arts Sect, would he have any face left?

Thinking this, Ye Haochuan chuckled and replied: ”What’s the point of showing a photo? Let’s meet in person, and I will let you admire me up close.”

The other party sent a disdainful emoji: ”Pssh, you’re a coward. Alright, big sis is going offline; I have to go to work and teach classes. Bye.”

Ye Haochuan was left speechless; they had barely started chatting when the other party went offline.

At the same time, he was somewhat curious: who was this woman? Going to work, teaching classes—could she be hidden within Haishan University as a teacher?

At that moment, Xiao Haimei slowly stirred from her sleep. He quickly put his phone away and turned over, only to find her staring dreamily at him. Even though she said not a word, her silent gaze spoke volumes, more eloquently than a thousand words could ever express.

Finally, Ye Haochuan broke the silence, ”By the way, I saw Elder Xiao last night, but why didn’t I see your father?”

He had heard bits and pieces about Xiao Haimei’s family situation at school: her mother had passed away many years ago, her father had remarried, taking a mistress as a stepmother, and she had unexpectedly gained a scumbag stepbrother like Xiao Ding.

On normal days, she was tormented by her stepmother and stepbrother. If it weren’t for the protection of her grandfather, Elder Xiao, who knows how much more miserable her experiences could have been.

”Ah, my father has long been bewitched by my stepmother, hardly sparing a thought for me, his daughter,” said Xiao Haimei, her expression somewhat desolate.

Seeing her downcast look, Ye Haochuan regretted bringing it up and quickly apologized, ”Sister Mei, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have mentioned that.”

Xiao Haimei shook her head: ”It’s fine, my love; you are the love of my life, and even if you didn’t ask, I would still tell you. If my stepmother were ever to harm you, and you remained ignorant, it would be too late.”

To harm me? Well, that remains to be seen if she has the capability!

Ye Haochuan snorted coldly in his heart.
