"The leave I'm requesting isn't just for me, but for all three of us!"
Qi Yan'er's words left everyone stunned.
Outrageous!
Absolutely outrageous!
Requesting an indefinite leave for herself was bad enough, but to drag two other girls into it too?
"Miss Yan'er, you... you don't actually want to attend Canaan Academy, do you?" Xiao Yu asked in disbelief, her voice barely a whisper.
"Of course I do!" Qi Yan'er shook her head, her small face earnest. "I just want a free vacation!"
"Yan'er~ are you joking?" Ruo Lin blinked her long lashes, torn between laughter and tears at Qi Yan'er's words.
An indefinite leave?
Two SSS-grade potential students and one provisional A-grade, barely enrolled, already wanting to run off?
If she granted this leave...
When they returned to the academy, that old dean would tear her apart!
Qi Yan'er's small face was serious as she said, "Mommy~ I'm being very serious about this!"
Ruo Lin sighed helplessly, her delicate brows furrowed. "This vacation request is simply absurd. Even as an academy instructor, I can't approve something like this."
"Yan'er~ why don't you shorten it? How about half a year?"
"With your potential, you'll receive the best training at the academy. There's no need to waste your time on a vacation."
Hearing Ruo Lin's persuasion, Qi Yan'er's face showed her reluctance. "Half a year is too short! Mommy~ I want a full year!"
Ruo Lin gently massaged her smooth forehead with her slender hand. This little one... she's such a headache!
Wait a minute!
She called me "Mommy" first—could it just be to get this vacation?
The moment this thought crossed her mind, Ruo Lin's expression changed instantly.
If that were true, her daughter would be... terrifyingly cunning!
"A year is a long time. You're such a handful, child! What good would such a long vacation do you?"
Ruo Lin felt a headache coming on. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she smiled softly.
"However... it's not entirely impossible."
"Yan'er~ are you really planning to take a year-long leave of absence?"
Qi Yan'er looked up at Ruo Lin, staring into those beautiful eyes. Suddenly, she sensed something was amiss.
Despite this, Qi Yan'er nodded firmly.
"Very well," Ruo Lin said with a gentle smile. "If you can defeat me, then a year it shall be. I'll handle those old geezers at Canaan Academy."
Ruo Lin's words sent shockwaves through the crowd.
Especially Xiao Yu, Xue Ni, and others who knew Ruo Lin well, their expressions changed drastically.
Xiao Yu hurried forward, trying to dissuade her.
"Instructor Ruo Lin, she's still..."
"I know," Ruo Lin interrupted, her beautiful eyes turning cold. "She's my daughter now. Do you think I wouldn't understand?"
With this, everyone finally understood Ruo Lin's true intentions.
As Yan'er's mother, how could she bear to let her daughter venture out into the continent alone?
The dangers were immense; the slightest misstep could lead to her demise.
Stop her! We have to stop her!
"So, Yan'er~ do you still want to accept the challenge?" Ruo Lin asked gently, her eyes sparkling with a smile as she gazed at Qi Yan'er.
"Yes!" Qi Yan'er replied without hesitation, her large eyes radiating unwavering determination.
"Don't worry, Mother~ with Father here, I won't be in any danger~"
"You're that confident you can defeat me?" Ruo Lin raised a delicate eyebrow, her voice tinged with disbelief.
"Hehehe~" Qi Yan'er giggled. "Mother~ Father always says that no matter how strong your opponent is, you must never let your spirit falter."
"Good!" Ruo Lin's smile grew even more radiant, yet... also more dangerous.
No matter what, I can't let seven-year-old Yan'er risk herself again!
Hearing Qi Yan'er actually accept Ruo Lin's conditions, the assembled students couldn't help but cast admiring glances at the young girl.
Fighting someone several ranks above you!
The gap between a Battle Master and a Great Dou Shi was like an unbridgeable chasm.
This wasn't something that could be overcome with mere talent.
They themselves lacked the courage to attempt such a feat, yet this young girl, a decade their junior, dared to!
"It's a bit cramped here, Yan'er~ Let's move over there~"
Ruo Lin smiled faintly at Qi Yan'er and gestured toward a more spacious area.
Her full, shapely figure swayed gracefully as she walked, radiating a mature, alluring "motherly" charm.
"Okay~"
Qi Yan'er chirped, skipping after her without a trace of nervousness.
The commotion drew the attention of many.
Applicants who had been about to leave now turned their gazes toward the pair.
The setting sun cast a soft, crimson glow across the square, like a thin carpet of light.
A refreshing breeze swept through the square as Qi Yan'er, her small hands clasped behind her back, stood opposite the smiling Ruo Lin under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
"Mommy~ Don't hold back on me later, okay~?"
Hearing this, a gentle smile curved Ruo Lin's lips.
"Very well!"
As the words fell, Ruo Lin slowly raised her slender hand. The green Storage Ring on her finger flashed with a faint light, and a long, azure whip materialized in her palm.
The whip was entirely deep blue, radiating a dense aura of energy.
Its handle was meticulously carved into the shape of a gaping serpent's maw, within which nestled a blue Magic Core.
The design clearly indicated that this was a meticulously crafted Magic Core weapon, and the core's elemental attribute matched Ruo Lin's Battle Qi—both were water-based!
Wielding this weapon would undoubtedly amplify Ruo Lin's combat prowess by one or two tiers.
"Hiss~"
Upon witnessing this, Xiao Yu, Xue Ni, and the others gasped in unison.
"Instructor Ruo Lin is actually serious!"
"She's using a whip against her own daughter!"
"Mother and daughter... at odds?"
"Intriguing~"
Just then, an aged chuckle suddenly echoed through the air.
The crowd turned to see none other than Ice Emperor Hai Bodong approaching.
"Old Hai, what brings you here?" Ya Fei asked, her curiosity piqued.
"Could I possibly miss this?" Hai Bodong's eyes burned with excitement. "This is the first time I've ever seen Miss Yan'er in action!"
"Indeed~ This is Miss Yan'er's debut! How could we possibly miss it?"
At that moment, Gu Ni, Xiao Zhan, and the others arrived at the plaza, their faces flushed with anticipation.
Crack!
With a flick of Ruo Lin's right arm, a sharp, resounding crack echoed through the air.
The sound sent shivers down the spines of all who heard it.
Considering Ruo Lin's status as an instructor and the azure whip in her hand, which student wouldn't tremble with fear?
Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as they fixed on Qi Yan'er.
Ruo Lin's actions made her message clear:
Even if you're my daughter, you won't get a year's leave from me!
"Mommy with a whip... so scary~"
Qi Yan'er smiled at Ruo Lin, who stood gracefully opposite her.
"Since you're using a weapon, Mommy, I guess I'll use one too!"
With that, Qi Yan'er reached into her small wooden box...
Xiao Xun'er and the Little Medical Fairy:
Σ(⊙▽⊙"a!
A weapon?!
They'd never seen her use one before. Could she... could she be about to pull out another treasure?
