Gu Ci held the box given by Zhao Linger in his hand, and walked with heavy steps. The box was very delicate, and exuded a faint fragrance, which was very similar to the smell of Zhao Linger.

But the smell made him even more irritated.

"Squeak! Squeak!" Wukong seemed to feel Gu Ci's emotions. He jumped from the ground to his shoulder and gently grabbed his hair, as if he wanted to comfort him.

"Wukong, what do you think of Zhao Linger?" Gu Ci smiled self-deprecatingly and touched Wukong's head.

"Squeak." Wukong tilted his head, seeming not to understand Gu Ci's troubles.

"Should I stand up like a man so that her brother won't speak in a sarcastic tone?"

"Squeak!" Wukong jumped on his shoulder, and sensing his disappointment, he gently scratched his ears with his little claws.

"What do you, a monkey, know? We humans want dignity! Since her brother looks down on me... then I will let her brother take a good look at me!"

Gu Ci held the box in his hand and remained silent all the way.

Wukong scratched his shoulders and rubbed his cheek with his furry head from time to time, as if to comfort him.

Back to the dormitory, walking through the noisy and smelly dormitory area.

Gu Ci threw the box on the table and sat down on the bed.

"Squeak!" Wukong jumped off his shoulder, stared at the box curiously, and stretched out his furry little paws to open it.

"Stop it." Gu Ci grabbed Wukong's tail and pulled it in front of him. "Tell me, should I open this box?"

Wukong tilted his head and blinked his black eyes, seeming not to understand Gu Ci's troubles.

"Her brother looks down on me, thinks I'm poor, thinks I'm unsophisticated..." Gu Ci laughed at himself, "But she gave me something. What do you think she meant by that? The Zhao family's tactics don't offend anyone? One is a good cop and the other is a bad cop?"

Wukong struggled in his hands for a few times, jumped onto the table, and scratched the box with his claws, as if he really wanted to see what was inside.

Gu Ci sighed and looked at Wukong's furry little head, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Zhao Linger, what on earth is she thinking?

"Squeak! Squeak!" Wukong suddenly shouted excitedly, and his little paws kept hitting the box.

"What's wrong?" Gu Ci came back to his senses and looked at Wukong in confusion.

Wukong picked up the box with his mouth, jumped onto Gu Ci's legs, pushed the box in front of him, and looked at him with sparkling eyes, as if urging him to open it.

Gu Ci hesitated for a moment, but finally opened the box.

In the box, there lay a jade pendant quietly.

The jade pendant was emerald green all over, warm and delicate. Gu Ci picked up the jade pendant and felt it was warm. A strange energy flowed into his body from the jade pendant, and he suddenly felt full of strength.

"Squeak!" Wukong jumped onto Gu Ci's shoulder excitedly, rubbing his furry little head against his cheek, as if sharing his joy.

At this moment, Gu Ci suddenly came to his senses!

"This, this is the Palm Jade! Zhao Linger actually gave her Palm Jade to me?"

"The Jade in the Palm is a good thing that every warrior hopes to obtain. How can she just give it away to others?"

Gu Ci muttered to himself, with a storm in his heart.

You know, the Palm Jade is a treasure that needs someone to nurture it. If you are a warrior, it is extremely important to own a Palm Jade!

Moreover, the jade in the palm is not made of ordinary jade.

It is as smooth as jade and warm to the touch. It needs to be a special jade grown in a place with abundant spiritual energy, then carved into shape by a famous master, and finally nurtured by a warrior with his own internal strength day and night, before it can become a real jade in the palm of your hand.

The rare jade in the world, the meticulous craftsmanship, and the long-term nurturing of the warriors make the jade in the palm the treasure that warriors dream of.

Ordinary jade is just a plaything, but jade in the palm can help warriors practice, speed up the circulation of spiritual energy, and even release powerful force at critical moments to protect the owner.

This is also the reason why Gu Ci was so shocked when Zhao Linger gave her palm jade to him.

The significance of this gift has far exceeded the scope of ordinary gifts.

"Isn't she afraid of her father's blame for giving this to me? Could it be that..."

Gu Ci suddenly raised his head and looked out the window. Could it be that Zhao Linger really wanted to be with him, so she gave him the jade in her palm regardless of the consequences?

Once this idea came into being, it grew wildly like weeds.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" Wukong seemed to have also felt Gu Ci's excitement. He jumped around on his shoulder excitedly, and his furry tail swept across his cheek, making him feel itchy.

"Wukong, do you think Zhao Linger likes me?" Gu Ci couldn't help but ask, with a hint of expectation in his tone that he himself didn't even notice.

Wukong tilted his head and blinked his black eyes, seeming not to understand what Gu Ci was saying.

Gu Ci looked at Wukong's silly look and couldn't help laughing. He stretched out his hand and scratched its chin. "You silly monkey, what do you know? But no matter whether she likes me or not, I will become stronger! I will make that bastard Zhao Yiming and his snobbish father regret looking down on me!"

Gu Ci clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with determination.

Although he has now stepped half a foot into Shangqing University, even so, he is still looked down upon and ridiculed everywhere.

After all, I am just a preparatory class. No matter whether it is a gifted class or an ordinary class, the outcome will be the same.

He was fed up with being looked down upon!

"That bastard Zhao Yiming, sooner or later I will make them kneel before me!"

Gu Ci gritted his teeth.

Wukong seemed to sense his emotions and started squeaking as well, waving his little paws as if to cheer for Gu Ci.

"However, the most important thing now is to improve our strength!"

Gu Ci took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

He clenched the jade in his hand, and a warm energy flowed out from the jade pendant, nourishing his meridians.

"This palm jade is indeed a good thing. Just by holding it in my hand, I can feel the spiritual power in my body running rapidly."

He was secretly delighted, thinking that the jade in his palm was definitely the best aid on the road to cultivation!

"By the way, system, what is the function of this jade in the palm?" Gu Ci suddenly remembered something and quickly called the system in his heart.

"Ding! The jade in the palm can assist in cultivation, speed up the circulation of internal force, contains mysterious power, and can withstand fatal blows." The cold voice of the system sounded in the mind.

"Squeak!" Wukong also shouted excitedly, and seemed to be very interested in the jade in his palm.

Gu Ci placed the jade in his palm close to his body, then sat cross-legged on the ground and began to practice.

As he practiced his skills, the jade in his palm emitted a soft light, enveloping Gu Ci completely.
