"Jiao'er, quickly use water." The butterfly woman turned to the girl next door and said as she watched the flames getting closer and closer to them.
Upon hearing this, Jiao'er responded, and a blue light appeared on her right hand. As she moved her hand, the seawater not far away extinguished the surrounding fire.
Her water had just fallen into the fire and the flames did extinguish somewhat, but after a short while, the flames burned even more intensely.
"What's going on? Isn't water supposed to extinguish fire?" Jiao'er's expression changed drastically as she stared in disbelief at the ever-growing flames in front of her.
"In the face of absolute power, restraint is insignificant," Su said lightly, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
Wow, Brother Mu is awesome! He's so powerful that he's completely solved the problem of restraint.
Wait a minute, aren't water-based abilities supposed to be rare? Why are water-based ability users everywhere in this military academy trial, like radishes?
[Upstairs, you can't just look at how many water-powered individuals you encountered; you need to look at the proportion. Among so many contestants, the percentage of water-powered individuals isn't high.]
...
"Hey, you scoundrel, let my teammate go!"
Yuehu frowned and reached out to touch her arm that was close to the flames. Even though she wasn't inside the flames, her arm was still burned. One could only imagine the kind of burning the three people inside the flames were enduring.
“Okay,” Mu Qingyun raised an eyebrow, waved her right hand, and extinguished all the flames. “Leave this place.”
"Hmph." Fan Yunche snorted coldly, his vertical pupils flashing, and his snake tail suddenly swelled many times larger, the end of the tail taut, clearly in an attack stance.
Although he had adopted an attack stance, he did not make a move rashly.
"Yunche, Yunche, don't do anything, let's go."
Seeing that Fan Yunche was about to fight, the butterfly woman quickly flapped her wings and grabbed his arm. "There's plenty of time. We can settle any grudges after we get out of the first trial. Our goal is to pass the trial."
"That's right, Yunche, don't be impulsive, let's go first." Jiao'er also reached out and tugged at his other arm, gently comforting him.
They offered him a way out, and Fan Yunche was happy to take advantage of it. Yes, he couldn't be too impulsive; his ultimate goal was to successfully join the military academy.
There were five people on the other side, and four on their side. Moreover, apart from her charm skills, Yuehu's combat power was basically zero.
With three against five, and Fan Xuan Ye's skills being roughly equal to his, there was no chance of victory if the fight continued like this.
"Hmph, fine, you poor brat, just you wait. After the first round, I'll make you pay for your arrogance today!" Fan Yunche sneered, staring fiercely at Mu Qingyun.
This was a well-placed threat, but Mu Qingyun wasn't going to give him a way out. "Fine, I'll be waiting. Don't go back on your word and disappear as soon as you leave."
Wow, Mu-ge is so handsome!
Why doesn't Brother Mu kill them now? Their fire abilities are so powerful, and there are five of them. It shouldn't be too difficult to defeat those three.
Could he have actually fallen for that fox? After all, he surrounded all three of them just now, but then let the fox go.
I don't think so. I feel that Brother Mu isn't bothering the fox because he just grabbed its tail.
"Brother Mu, Brother Mu, why did you let them go? They were your competitors too. Their elimination would have been good for you, Brother Mu."
To be honest, I really don't understand it either.
[I feel it's because Fan Yunche and Fan Xuanye are brothers. Even if they're at each other's throats, it's still a matter between the two brothers. Shouldn't Brother Mu figure out the situation before taking action?]
Well said.
Mu Qingyun glanced at the comments and was somewhat surprised. The comments were truly insightful, as they had grasped her thoughts so accurately.
Fan Yunche and the others turned and left. Before leaving, Yuehu turned back to look at her, hesitated for a long time, and finally said nothing.
She was quite angry at Mu Qingyun's scoundrel behavior of grabbing his own tail, but afterwards he didn't surround her with fire.
Such exclusive favor is hard not to be tempted.
After the person left, Mu Qingyun turned to look at Fan Xuanye.
"Thank you." Fan Xuanye nodded to her in acknowledgment.
"Fan Xuan Ye, what's going on with that person? Is he really your brother?"
Unable to contain her surging curiosity, Xiong Ruoyou asked Fan Xuanye.
As soon as she started, everyone looked at Fan Xuanye in unison. They were quite curious, after all, Fan Xuanye seemed to have many secrets about him.
"Just half-siblings." Fan Xuan Ye closed his eyes slightly, sat down on the ground, and frowned rather irritably as he felt an interested gaze scrutinizing him.
“My mother disappeared when I was very young. Everyone said she ran away with someone.” He looked up and glanced at Yi Beixuan without making a sound. “But I know that my mother left me because of some things, not because of what others say.”
"So your father remarried, is that right?" Xiong Ruoyou frowned, feeling a pang of pain in her heart. Her mother had passed away when she was very young, and her father had never remarried because of her.
She simply couldn't imagine how devastated she would be if her father married another woman.
"Hmm." Fan Xuanye nodded expressionlessly. "Fan Yunche isn't much younger than me. My father married Fan Yunche's mother when I was very young."
"The reason I came to the military academy for training is simply because I didn't want to stay in that family anymore. I also didn't want to inherit any of his businesses or receive any benefits from him."
"So that's how it is! No wonder he said those things to you the moment he saw you. That's really too much!" Xiong Ruoyou snorted angrily, picked up a stone from the side, and threw it away in a fit of rage.
This melodramatic soap opera at 8 PM has actually become a reality, and right next to her. It's outrageous.
Mu Qingyun listened silently from the side. In her previous life, she was a prince disguised as a man. Her father had three thousand beauties in the palace. Before she achieved anything, her father didn't even care about her life or death.
"What's wrong?"
Su noticed that something was wrong with her mood and gently poked her arm. "You don't look too good."
"It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things from the past." She replied casually, then looked up at Fan Xuan Ye, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Do you hate them?"
"Whether I hate her or not doesn't matter, I just want to find my mother." As he spoke, he looked at Yi Beixuan, a flicker of an unknown emotion in his eyes.
[Waaaaah, I feel so sorry for Fanfan, he's so pitiful.]
[Sigh, all he wants is to find his mother. But he's quite popular, so if his mother watches the military academy entrance exam, she'll definitely see him.]
[But why is he staring at Yi Beixuan?]
[He was probably just looking around casually, and his gaze just happened to fall on Yi Beixuan.]
...
After Fan Yunche's sudden arrival, Fan Xuanye's mood clearly dropped. He stopped cultivating and just sat there with his head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Staring at Fan Xuanye from afar, Mu Qingyun pursed her lips, feeling that she should do something now.
“Fan Xuan Ye,” she walked slowly over and squatted down, “it’s getting dark, there are no clouds tonight, would you like to go out and look at the stars?”
