The next morning, Mu Qingyun reached out and nudged Su.
She would still teach what needed to be taught, and she wouldn't easily give up on what she said or the promises she made. Moreover, she could use the time while teaching to find out more about the person's background.
"Hmm..."
Su blinked, opened her hazy eyes, and looked utterly dejected.
"Come out." Seeing this, Mu Qingyun gently patted Su's shoulder, thinking to herself, this child must come from a very good family. Who in an ordinary family could sleep until noon and still not get up?
However, after looking around, she noticed that apart from Fan Xuan Ye, who was diligently cultivating, Xiong Ruo You and Su almost always got up around noon.
"Can we not practice?" Su was really at his wits' end. He stayed up most of last night to "spy" on Mu Qingyun taking a shower, and he didn't sleep when he got back. He only went to sleep when Mu Qingyun came back.
All things considered, he is currently getting less than five hours of sleep.
If this continues in the long run, it will lead to sudden death.
“I’m so tired,” he pointed to his head. “I didn’t sleep for long today. I woke up from a nightmare and went to find you. I didn’t sleep well when I got home.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun gently shook her head. "No, how can you give up halfway through training? If you rest today, yesterday's training will have been in vain."
Looking at Su's half-dead state, she felt that this person had no ambition at all, just like her younger brother at the beginning.
She could use her mother's life and the humiliation she had suffered to motivate her younger brother, but what method should she use?
"I'll practice, stop talking, wait for me." Su took a deep breath, suppressing his irritation. If Mu Qingyun hadn't genuinely cared for him, he would have punched the person who disturbed his dream to his death.
"I'll wait for you outside." Surprised by Su's sudden relent, Mu Qingyun was only stunned for a moment before she reacted, leaving behind a faint sentence before turning and walking out.
Hearing the footsteps receding into the distance, Su blinked, squinted for a moment, then stood up and walked outside.
He is not an irregular person. In the past, when he was cultivating and protecting the planet, he would get up whenever he was called. It is probably because he was severely sleep-deprived that he is now so reluctant to get out of bed.
A new day has begun!
[It's a holiday today! Yay! I can finally watch the live stream properly!]
[Upstairs, you really have high standards! Why waste a perfectly good holiday watching this lousy livestream?]
Nowadays, everything is connected to the internet. Going out to play is basically just playing online games. A group of people sitting there together is less efficient than everyone going home and saving on gas.
Yes, I plan to watch the live stream with my friends online, specifically on Mu Ge's channel.
Wow! The princess has condensed water into roses! How beautiful!
Where is it?
As comments about Mu Xueyao appeared, those who had been waiting in Mu Qingyun's live stream immediately left and rushed to Mu Xueyao's live stream.
Meanwhile, Mu Xueyao, who had gotten up early, was just playing around with the water when she started turning it into all sorts of shapes. Her live stream went wild.
[Your Highness is so beautiful!]
I want to see roses, I want to see roses.
As soon as Mu Xueyao saw the bustling live stream, she immediately got excited. She knew that Mu Qingyun had been in the limelight recently and had gained a group of fans who liked him and even spoke up for him.
She had to win back all the praise and attention; when the list of candidates for the military academy trials was first released, she was clearly the most anticipated contestant.
A blue energy surged in her hand, and water droplets immediately condensed into the shape of roses, floating above her palm.
...
"Today is the same as yesterday, first squat in a horse stance, then take the beating." Mu Qingyun waved the plastic stick in her hand, "But at noon today, under the blazing sun, I want you to run ten laps around the cave."
"Okay." Su nodded, having no objections whatsoever.
Surprised by his obedience today, Mu Qingyun raised an eyebrow with satisfaction, "Then let's begin."
Another day of training began. Su kept glancing at his sleeves, his eyes deep and unfocused, lost in thought.
"Don't get distracted. We're practicing a horse stance now. If you dare to lose focus when we're about to get a beating, you might not be able to get up tomorrow." Mu Qingyun noticed that Su was daydreaming and suddenly reached out and hit Su's arm with a stick.
"Help! Help!"
Suddenly, a magnetic voice came from behind them. Mu Qingyun and Su turned around at the same time and saw a handsome man in white clothes running towards them in a disheveled state.
Dazzled by the bright white, both of them frowned.
"Hey you two guys in front, there's something behind you!"
As the man finished speaking, a huge lion was chasing after him majestically.
Su calmly glanced at the man, but when Mu Qingyun's gaze fell upon her, she quickly feigned surprise and widened her eyes, "Yi Beixuan?"
"You know him?" Hearing Su's words, Mu Qingyun raised her eyebrows in confusion. After seeing Su nod, she immediately rushed out.
With flames burning in her right hand, she grabbed the gentle-looking man named "Yi Beixuan" and threw the flames at the virtual creature.
The flames struck the lion but did not cause any real damage. She grabbed the person's hand and pushed them back, while simultaneously kicking the lion with her toes.
With her close-quarters combat skills, she fought back and forth with the lion using only a dagger.
Mu Qingyun, focused solely on the lion, did not notice the two people chatting quietly behind her.
"Qi Luo, I've come to find you." Yi Beixuan glanced at Mu Qingyun to make sure her gaze wasn't on him before speaking softly.
Hearing this, Su glanced at him lazily, "I told you not to come over, but you insisted. The Doctor probably wants to kill us right now."
"Why can't I come over just because you can? It's alright, the doctor has a strong tolerance for stress. At most, he'll just say a few bad things about us behind our backs." Yi Beixuan smiled and looked at Mu Qingyun. "Is this the successor you were talking about?"
"Hmm," Su replied casually.
"That's good. His skills are really impressive. You don't know, he's become a hot topic right now. He's been trending on social media for days, and the search volume even crashed search engines at one point." Yi Beixuan chuckled and said with interest.
"So what?"
Su's eyes turned cold. No matter how fiery Mu Qingyun was, as long as he took action, who would dare to compete with him for the man?
“What if he’s not willing? Once the news breaks, someone will contact him and ask him to film variety shows or appear on programs. By then, he’ll have money and a group of supporters. I don’t think he’ll necessarily take your place,” Yi Beixuan said, raising an eyebrow.
Upon hearing this, Su gave a cold laugh, "He's a man with guts, I don't believe he would choose mediocrity."
