It had already been nearly an hour since the [God Battle] class ended.
At this moment, Qin Siyang and Chu Baxing's group were having dinner in the cafeteria.
Although the meal was still as frustrating as ever, with people constantly cutting in line and pushing them aside, none of them cared about that.
Each of them was still thinking about their battle against a god in the god arena.
Qin Siyang was also replaying his fight with the Sacrificial Vine over and over in his head.
To be exact, it couldn't really be called a fight. It was a one-sided slaughter by the Sacrificial Vine.
Qin Siyang had tried resisting with [Origin Violence], and he had also used the skills of medium-sized gods for direct attacks.
Every attempt failed without exception.
The only thing he could do was activate [Banquet Domain] and keep running.
Even though Qin Siyang considered himself fairly talented in combat, after an entire afternoon of practice, he didn't feel he had improved much.
At the very least, he still couldn't last more than thirty seconds under the Sacrificial Vine's attacks.
And despite awakening the [Origin Sequence] and possessing extremely high agility and perception, he couldn't fully bring those abilities into play during the battle against the Sacrificial Vine.
The resources he possessed could not be fully utilized.
The feeling was like when he had obtained a silver coin from those three robbers but could only spend copper coins.
It was frustrating.
He couldn't keep staying where he was any longer.
Now that he had found a weakness, he had to make up for it as soon as possible.
For the first time, Qin Siyang, who had always relied on talent, luck, and courage, seriously considered that there might also be a path of "hard work makes up for shortcomings" in god hunting.
From now on, he needed to spend more time in the god arena and improve his combat skills.
Anyway, the cost of using the god arena was pocket change to him.
The only problem was that he had no advantage in points compared to the older students, so he couldn't get a god arena during normal hours.
"God arena... training queues... earning points..."
After following that train of thought, Qin Siyang couldn't help saying,
"Looks like I need to do some school missions too and earn more points."
While eating, Fu Wanli said, "Big brothers, Little Yu and Little Lan have disappeared for two days now. How come I haven't seen any posts about them at school, and none of their parents are causing trouble?"
"Well, they were both people with bad intentions. To avoid exposing themselves by interacting with too many people, they didn't stay in the student dorms. School only started two days ago. Who would know them? As for family... not to mention that the family information they provided might have been fake, even if they do have family members, their backgrounds probably aren't clean either. How would they dare show up?"
Fu Wanli slowly nodded, "So that's how it is... Alright then. I don't have to worry about them causing trouble for you guys later. By the way, one more question. What are you planning to do tonight?"
Zhao Sifang answered directly, "I think that god arena is pretty interesting. Tonight I'll go back to the God Hunting Building and try my luck to see if I can find an empty arena and spend an hour or so there."
"Hey, Fifth Brother Zhao, your second uncle is Principal Zhao. Don't you get any special privileges for entering the god arena?"
Zhao Sifang's mouth drooped, "At South Glory University, my second uncle is stricter with me than he is with all of you. Privileges? It's already a miracle that he didn't take away my special admission benefits out of family affection."
"Ah... Alright. Fourth Brother Gu, what about you?"
Gu Yunpeng nodded, "I was thinking the same thing. I'm also planning to go back to the God Hunting Building and try my luck."
"Third Brother Hu?"
Hearing Fu Wanli deliberately emphasize his third-place ranking, Hu Chan lowered his head and continued eating without speaking.
Chu Baxing, sitting beside him, said, "Third Hu, Fu Wanli's talking to you."
Hu Chan slapped the table, "Who the... who are you calling Third?"
Chu Baxing gave Hu Chan a cold glance, showed a look of disdain, and continued eating.
Hu Chan clenched his teeth and balled up his fists.
"Chu Two-Egg, just wait."
He took two more bites of food and suppressed the anger in his chest.
"I'm going back to my room to rest and take care of other things."
"Oh, then what about Second Brother Chu?"
"I have a lot of things to do. Haven't decided which one yet. We'll see."
"Brother Qin?"
"I'll probably go to the battle arena too. I learned a few things today. You've gone around asking all of us. Do you need help with something?"
Fu Wanli scratched his nose awkwardly, "Well, there is something... But all of you seem pretty busy, so forget it."
"What do you want help with?"
"Today at the God Hunting Building, a female classmate asked me about fighting techniques against gods. We exchanged contact information. Tonight she wants to meet me alone and go for a walk..."
"Huh?"
All five of them were startled.
"Fu Wanli, don't tell me you've got another girlfriend already?"
Fu Wanli grinned.
"We haven't confirmed anything yet. But she's very cute and completely my type... I want you big brothers to help me see whether she's someone I can spend my whole life with!"
Qin Siyang pressed his fingers against his forehead.
"Little Fu, settle down for a couple of days. Leave some time between relationships. Even an emperor taking names from the palace roster needs a couple of days off. You can't keep going one after another."
"Brother Qin, the people I met before were the wrong people. That doesn't count as a normal relationship!", Fu Wanli patted his chest and guaranteed, "Don't worry, big brothers. I'm fine. Right now I still have a very strong desire to fall in love. I don't need time to recover!"
"But we need time to recover."
Qin Siyang sighed.
"Little Fu, you put yourself on the line for the sake of the five of us. You acted as bait and successfully lured out two people with bad intentions. We're very grateful."
"But your efficiency at catching criminals is just too high."
Fu Wanli puffed out his lips somewhat unwillingly, "But Xiao Li probably isn't a criminal."
"Just in case. Aren't you also not one hundred percent sure? That's why you're asking us to help check her out," Qin Siyang patted Fu Wanli on the shoulder and tried to comfort him.
Zhao Sifang also spoke earnestly.
"Little Fu, the memory investigation speed on my second uncle's side is limited too. Right now your Xiao Yu and Xiao Lan are still waiting in line at the morgue. There's really no room for Xiao Li."
"Listen to Brother Qin. Don't date anyone for the next couple of days, alright?"
Fu Wanli picked at his fingers, looking quite wronged, "But... if I don't go for a walk with Xiao Li, what am I supposed to do tonight..."
Zhao Sifang spoke again.
"How about this? Come with me to the god arena tonight. If we find an open spot, I'll give it to you first. And I'll cover all the Sequence Potions you use there. What do you think?"
Fu Wanli still looked a little reluctant.
When a sincere love was right in front of him, who would want to go to the god arena and sweat and bleed instead?
But after thinking about it, Qin Siyang and the others really had helped him a lot and had never harmed him.
Zhao Sifang was even willing to pay for him. That was already more than enough.
Thinking of that, he could only nod against his true wishes.
"Alright. Thanks, Fifth Brother Zhao."
