Ma Xiaotao was very gluttonous.
Truly very gluttonous.
And because Lin Yun was generous enough, Ma Xiaotao ate almost without restraint, completely treating herself as one of them.
Her flat abdomen was now a little bloated from eating too much late-night snack. At this moment, she still smacked her lips, a bit unsatisfied, and stuck out her little tongue to lick the food stuck to her lips into her mouth. After savoring it, her throat rolled, swallowing it.
Lin Yun, content, put on his clothes and looked down at Ma Xiaotao.
Her black-stockinged legs were a little red at the knees from kneeling for too long, and there were traces of tears at the corners of her eyes, making her appear less arrogant and more fragile and delicate.
"Alright, this amount should be enough to completely heal your injuries. Go back," Lin Yun waved his hand, lazily lying on the bed.
"Yes." Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips, extended her alluring little tongue to lick the milk from the corner of her lips, and revealed a charming and captivating smile.
She rose gracefully, taking somewhat stiff steps, and left Lin Yun's room.
She had knelt for a little too long; her legs were a bit numb~
And besides...
She urgently wanted to go back and take a shower, to get rid of that strange feeling on her body.
Lin Yun watched her leave, then casually waved a surge of soul power to lock the room door. Although Ma Xiaotao seemed a bit awkward at first, under Lin Yun's guidance, her technique became increasingly proficient, and her movements grew smoother, giving Lin Yun an excellent experience.
Watching the once proud Phoenix kneel at his feet, doing things to please him, indeed easily brought a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
Lin Yun was not stingy and gave Ma Xiaotao sufficient compensation.
It could also help Ma Xiaotao increase her physical strength.
Having been integrated with the Gold of Life for several years, the vast life force of the Gold of Life had long permeated every corner of Lin Yun's body.
The most obvious effect was a significant increase in lifespan. In this era where even Ultimate Douluo only lived for three to five hundred years, Lin Yun already had a lifespan of over ten thousand years. The Gold of Life brought him unparalleled vitality and vigor.
This effect could also be transferred to others.
His blood and flesh, needless to say, by consuming Lin Yun's blood and flesh, one could also gain a portion of his life force. Life essence was naturally the same, and even more effective.
Ma Xiaotao had indeed drunk a lot of milk. This milk was enough to heal her current injuries and also make up for the hidden wounds she had previously suffered due to the backlash of her evil flames.
After waking up tomorrow morning, the severely injured and weakened Ma Xiaotao would be able to return to her original fiery phoenix Soul Emperor self, full of vitality.
And of course, no one else knew about this.
When everyone gathered the next day, Ma Xiaotao had already returned to her original appearance. The paleness and weakness on her face were completely gone, and even her soul power level had broken through from sixty-second to sixty-third.
Ma Xiaotao's change made Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan envious.
They didn't believe that Lin Yun used the 'precious spiritual medicine' to treat Ma Xiaotao's injuries simply because he feared losing the competition. Lin Yun definitely had some special intentions towards Ma Xiaotao, and it seemed Ma Xiaotao didn't refuse.
These two might even end up together in the future?
As for Xiao Xiao, she seemed less important. In their eyes, it was impossible for someone as excellent as Lin Yun to have only one woman.
Even Yao Haoxuan himself, although he didn't have a girlfriend, due to his family's wealth, had many maids at home, and it was self-evident what kind of service they provided.
How much more so for Lin Yun?
A thirteen-year-old Soul King, with a soul ring configuration of three black and two red, destined to become a Super or even Ultimate existence in the future. It was perfectly normal for a powerhouse of this level to have multiple women.
Ling Luochen also wanted to recover her combat strength quickly, but she only had admiration and respect for Lin Yun, not romantic feelings, so she didn't go to ask Lin Yun for the so-called 'spiritual medicine'.
"Since Xiaotao's injuries have recovered, then for tomorrow's competition, let Xiaotao and Lin Yun participate," Wang Yan said, a relieved smile appearing on his face now that Ma Xiaotao's injuries were healed.
His pressure was truly immense.
Xuan Zi, since taking the crippled Dai Yueheng and Xixi, and the dying Gongyang Mo back a week ago, hadn't returned, nor had there been any news from him.
They didn't know the condition of Dai Yueheng's three injuries, nor did they know how the academy would handle the situation afterward, or even if the academy would send reinforcements.
However, he thought it was probably unnecessary now.
With Lin Yun and Ma Xiaotao, it was enough to secure the championship for this competition.
This was also why Wang Yan felt relieved.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament had lasted for ten thousand years, and Shrek had continuously won the championship for ten thousand years without a single exception. If this one time, the loss occurred under his leadership, then Wang Yan's name would truly be nailed to Shrek's pillar of shame.
"The first match of the tournament is usually played by our Shrek Academy. As the champions of the previous tournament, we need to show our style in the first match!" Wang Yan clenched his fist, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Lin Yun. "Lin Yun, can you instantly kill all your opponents with one strike? If you can, I hope you'll directly make your move in the first match."
Using me to show off for Shrek?
Lin Yun raised an eyebrow, noncommittal.
What did his five soul rings have to do with Shrek? Besides learning some theoretical knowledge from them, when had he ever received a single resource from Shrek?
"I refuse," Lin Yun said without hesitation. "Teacher Wang, my strength isn't for you to use like that. I have no obligation to do so. Ma Xiaotao can also instantly kill opponents."
Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan frowned, about to say something, but then subsided.
Yes, Lin Yun was only in his second year of the outer court and had received almost no benefits from the academy. What right did they have to ask him to do anything for the academy?
This was also why Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan weren't yet entirely Shrek fanatics. If it were the un-trained Ma Xiaotao from before, she would probably have exploded immediately, telling him he had a death wish.
Wang Yan froze, feeling a bit bewildered.
That's not right. Didn't they say young people liked to show off? I'm giving Lin Yun such a good platform to display his power freely in front of countless people in Star Luo City.
Why would he refuse?
Wang Yan was completely confused, but he really couldn't command Lin Yun. He smiled bitterly in resignation.
"Alright, if you're unwilling, then so be it."
