Indeed, as that person said, the thing Luo Yuxiu had in her hand was like bringing a phone into an exam room. It wasn’t just using any means; it was using any means possible.
But…
“This was made by me. Do you have a problem with that?” Her speech was extremely fluent, and the slight stutter from when she talked with Sui Li’er just now had completely disappeared.
From top to bottom, she exuded an arrogant temperament.
Everyone: ??? Are you acting in a Sichuan opera?
No, wait, you made it yourself? A device capable of penetrating the defense of the Silver Water Dragon, and you made it yourself?
“This… how is that possible?”
To be skilled in magic and be able to create magical devices are two completely different fields. Most people present had little understanding of either.
To create a magical device, one not only needed to understand many mechanical principles but also have deep insights into magic. Either of these fields requires years of accumulation and dedication, and it’s unlikely for someone of their age to excel in both. They never imagined that this young girl before them was actually a genius inventor.
Before Luo Yuxiu could speak, the instructor ahead of her spoke.
“Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t. You’ve been eliminated, yet you still talk so much nonsense? Want to get kicked out?”
Luo Yuxiu’s reputation was already famous in certain circles. She was a young genius in the field of magical device research from the prestigious Luo family.
Though she had a weak aptitude for magic due to a congenital deficiency in her dantian, which led to very little magical power and weak spellcasting abilities, she compensated by becoming a genius in another field. If such a talent was not accepted by the Twelve Academies, then those individuals who couldn’t even penetrate the eye of the Silver Water Dragon should definitely go home.
Hearing this, the crowd was left speechless and stopped talking.
“Luo Yuxiu…” Sui Li’er murmured her name, seemingly wanting to remember it. “She’s amazing~”
Upon hearing Sui Li’er call her name, Luo Yuxiu turned back in surprise, her face blushing slightly as she shyly replied, “You flatter me.”
The air of arrogance from earlier was completely gone. That demeanor seemed to soften only for Sui Li’er. It was because she liked Sui Li’er’s soft and adorable personality so much!
She was too cute, and Luo Yuxiu couldn’t resist it. Despite being a well-known heiress from the prestigious Luo family, she still had a girlish heart.
“Not at all, you’re so amazing! How old are you?”
“I’m, I’m 18.”
“Oh! Same age as me! Hehe~”
Sui Li’er happily chatted with her while holding Chen Ling’s hand. Feeling Luo Yuxiu’s kindness, she wasn’t as scared anymore and her speech was no longer stuttering.
But Luo Yuxiu seemed a bit nervous, probably because Chen Ling had a poker face with no expression.
As they chatted, Sui Li’er noticed that Luo Yuxiu seemed to be looking at Chen Ling deliberately or unintentionally. She subconsciously glanced at him and found him expressionless. Then she remembered that she forgot to introduce him!
“Oh, this is Chen Ling. He’s amazing too!”
Upon hearing this, Luo Yuxiu dared to look directly at Chen Ling and nervously extended her hand, trembling slightly, “Hello, Chen Ling…”
She didn’t know why she reached out her hand, maybe because she had seen Chen Ling shaking hands with others before?
Sui Li’er was startled by this!
Danger! Absolutely cannot shake hands with the Lord God!
She quickly extended her small hand and blocked in front of him. “Uh~”
Chen Ling felt amused seeing this. He never intended to bond with Luo Yuxiu anyway. Now, even without bonding, he could estimate the approximate deduction of points based on people’s performance. Normally, the deduction wouldn’t be too high for regular individuals.
Only those who seemed particularly insidious would face more deductions. Dark magic users belonged to that category. This Luo Yuxiu looks like a relatively normal person. And seeing how good she is to Sui Li’er, who knows, she might even add points to herself every day in the future. So, Chen Ling had no intention of bonding with her and didn’t actively reach out his hand.
“Phew, that was close~ You can’t shake hands with him, he…” Sui Li’er didn’t know how to explain and got stuck.
However, Luo Yuxiu didn’t mind and smiled, saying, “I know, I know. He can only touch your hand, right?”
“Mhmm~”
“Hmm?”
〚 Ding~ Target Sui Li’er, feeling shy, +100,000 points! 〛
Cheng Ling felt happy; you should talk more.
“It’s not like that! It’s… phew~” Sui Li’er thought carefully, and it seemed that after shaking hands with Chen Ling, she was the only one who didn’t get hurt…
Thinking this, she felt a little happy!
In this world, she was the only one who could hold hands with Chen Ling every day without any harm~
〚 Ding~ Target Sui Li’er, feeling happy, +1,000,000 points! 〛
The special treatment, the feeling of being treated differently, made her inexplicably comfortable~
Then she looked at Chen Ling, who was grinning foolishly.
He lightly smiled and pinched her little face.
“Hehe~”Sui Li’er’s small face was pulled up, and her adorable white teeth were exposed. They were small but very neat, and her cute little canine teeth were just too adorable.
“Hehe~” She also seemed to enjoy Chen Ling pinching her face, as it felt very intimate~
〚 Ding~ Target Sui Li’er, +10,000,000 points! 〛
How could Luo Yuxiu miss capturing such a scene? She quickly took out her mobile device and recorded this heartwarming moment. It’s worth mentioning that her mobile device was indeed waterproof. It could handle such deep waters without any problem.
Chen Ling didn’t mind and smiled, letting go of her hand.
“Hey~ Xiuxiu, what are you doing?” Sui Li’er rubbed her little face, looking puzzled at Luo Yuxiu beside her.
“Xiu…Xiuxiu!?” Luo Yuxiu blushed, holding her mobile device in her hand with a face full of joy. She was called by her nickname! Does being called by a nickname mean being very close? I’m very close to my idol!
Seeing Luo Yuxiu’s exaggerated reaction, Sui Li’er thought she might have been too forward and explained apologetically, “Um, is it not okay? The three-word name is too long, and I think two words are more convenient…”
“Of course! You can!,” Luo Yuxiu nervously replied, “Um, can you say it again? I want to record the audio?”
Sui Li’er: ???
“Sure, I guess…” Although she didn’t understand what Luo Yuxiu meant, she agreed. It was just saying a name, not a big deal.
“Okay, please say it.”
“Xiu Xiu?”
“Wu Hu! Thank you, thank you.”
Sui Li’er: ???
She looked a bit puzzled at Chen Ling, wondering what was going on.
Then, blushing, Luo Yuxiu set the audio of those two words as her message alert tone. That way, whenever there was a message, the goddess would call her name to remind her. It was simply perfect!
“By the way, I was taking pictures just now, is it okay? I’m sorry, I decided on my own!”
“If it’s not okay, I’ll delete them all!”
“Huh? It’s fine! Hehe~” Sui Li’er thought Luo Yuxiu only took a picture earlier, and it didn’t seem like a big deal. She was actually curious to see them!
Chen Ling, on the other hand, remained silent and directly intruded into Luo Yuxiu’s mobile device using the system. He wanted to see what she had taken and frowned when he saw what was inside. He immediately noticed a photo of himself kissing Sui Li’er!
Not only that, it was in super high resolution, and there were hundreds of shots of the same scene. Cough, how could he reveal that he stole a kiss from her? Wouldn’t that make him look weak? He used the system to delete all those photos.
However, what he didn’t expect was that Luo Yuxiu had already printed them out last night. She never left such important things for the next day.
“Do you want to see them? I’ll show you,” Luo Yuxiu offered. Seeing Sui Li’er’s agreement, she felt relieved. Now she could openly take pictures without any worries!
