C57 Best Student of the Limestone Martial Arts Club Tu Yun

Su Xun'er's face clouded over with annoyance as she glared at Yang Qi.

"I was drawing my saber."

"Drawing your saber?"

Su Xun'er's eyes sparkled with interest.

"So, Yang Qi, what level have you reached now?"

She gazed at him, her curiosity piqued.

"Primary Grandmaster."

Yang Qi replied candidly, seeing no need for secrecy.

Su Xun'er's pupils shrank in disbelief.

Primary... Grandmaster?!

"Don't kid around. How on earth did you advance to Primary Grandmaster so fast?"

"I'm speaking the truth. If you don't believe me, there's not much I can do about it."

Yang Qi gave a helpless shrug.

Internally, Su Xun'er was astounded. Could Yang Qi truly have attained Grandmaster status?

But that seemed impossible.

Then, a thought struck her, and her eyes brightened.

"Yang Qi, you're still wearing a Martial Master badge. We should go to the Martial Artist organization and get it updated."

Here we go again...

Yang Qi sighed inwardly.

At the Thunder Snake Martial School, Su Xun'er was the only one who could make him feel this way.

"I need to confront and defeat Lin Tianzheng, the Master of Black Tiger Martial School. We can take care of the badge another time."

"Come on, you're going to defeat Lin Tianzheng? He's a Primary Grandmaster!"

Su Xun'er couldn't help but laugh, convinced Yang Qi was pulling her leg.

Then, she linked her arm with his and gave him a sweet smile.

"Yang Qi, why don't we just head over to the Martial Artist organization and exchange our badges, okay?"

This...

Yang Qi's cheeks flushed.

He had never been in love, let alone experienced such intimacy.

"What are you doing?"

"Going to exchange badges with you," she said simply.

Yang Qi managed a wry smile.

Indeed, dealing with women and scoundrels was a challenge.

Resigned, Yang Qi agreed to accompany Su Xun'er, and they set off for the Martial Artist organization.

Upon reaching the organization's entrance, Su Xun'er looked puzzled.

"Yang Qi, where's your badge?"

That's when Yang Qi remembered he had given his badge to Zhang Dong and made a mental note to check on him soon.

"I gave it away. Let's just go in and get a new one," Yang Qi suggested.

Yang Qi and Su Xun'er entered the Martial Artist organization, and were promptly greeted by a staff member.

"What service can I assist you with today?" the staff member inquired, offering a respectful nod to both Yang Qi and Su Xun'er.

Before Yang Qi could respond, a jarring voice cut through the air. "Isn't that Su Xun'er, the brilliant girl of the Thunder Snake Martial School?"

An eighteen or nineteen-year-old young man approached, his face marked by a defiant air. "Tu Yun, what's your business?" Su Xun'er's brow creased in annoyance.

Tu Yun flashed a sly grin. "Nothing much. I've heard rumors of a Super Student emerging from your school. Surely it's not this individual beside you?"

He paused, then added with a dismissive tone, "But even your Thunder Snake Martial School's Super Student, in comparison to our Green Rock Martial School, probably isn't all that impressive."

Green Rock Martial School ranked among the top eight in Linhai Base's hundred martial schools and was known for its rivalry with Thunder Snake Martial School. Tu Yun, recognized as the Best Student and a Primary Martial Disciple, represented Green Rock's elite.

His gaze then shifted to Yang Qi. "So, you're the Super Student of Thunder Snake Martial School?"

"Yes," Yang Qi replied succinctly, offering just a single word.

Tu Yun's displeasure was evident as he scrutinized Yang Qi with a frosty stare. "Here to claim your badge?"

"Correct," Yang Qi answered, his voice calm and unbothered.

Tu Yun let out a mocking chuckle. "Well, I'm curious to see just how capable you really are!" With that, he adorned himself with the badge signifying his status as a Primary Martial Disciple and regarded Yang Qi with a smug look of anticipation.
