Become a Knight Across the World

"I've explained the prototype of this math problem many times, how come you got it wrong again? Did you even put your heart into it?" Li Yuetian's voice revealed a hint of dissatisfaction. Although he secretly loved Lin Yue, he would never tolerate any leniency when it came to studying.

Lin Yue bit her lip. Li Yuetian was still so fierce at this moment, and it was only at this moment that he made her feel scared.

She whispered, "I...I'll be more careful next time." "Next time? You always say that, but what's the result?" Li Yuetian said helplessly.

"I'll teach you again, and you should reflect on it carefully." Lin Yue felt frustrated and muttered under her breath, "The real culprit..."

Li Yuetian didn't hear what she mumbled, so he leaned closer and asked, "What did you say?" Lin Yue was startled and quickly replied, "Nothing... nothing." Li Yuetian picked up his pen again and began to patiently explain the problem to Lin Yue.

After the midterm exams, Li Yuetian wanted to help Lin Yue improve her grades. The weekend passed quickly, and after reviewing the week's lessons with Lin Yue, Li Yuetian prepared to go home.

"Aren't you having lunch here today?" Lin Yue asked.

Li Yuetian hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "No, I have something to do today."

Lin Yue was a little happy; not having to cook saved her some trouble, but she still smiled and said, "Okay, you should go back now." Li Yuetian looked at her and said gently, "You're welcome. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me." After saying that, he turned and left.

Lin Yue closed the door, preparing to continue watching her drama. Just then, her phone rang. It was a message from Li Yuetian: "Your study efficiency today was lower than usual. You only absorbed about 30% of the new material taught at school this week. If it's still like this next week..."

Li Yuetian didn't finish his sentence, but Lin Yue already understood what he meant. Looking at the message, Lin Yue felt a surge of irritation.

I've been very cooperative this week, so why is he still not satisfied? Hmph, next week I'll deliberately get the questions wrong and see what he can do about it.

But as soon as the thought crossed Lin Yue's mind, she felt a little guilty. After all, although she could endure Li Yuetian's punishments, she was still somewhat embarrassed to be beaten each time. And if she made another mistake, he really would beat her like Chi Xiaoyu had.

After some deliberation, Lin Yue decided to review her lessons first and then watch the drama later that evening.

In the following months, Li Yuetian continued to tutor Lin Yue every Saturday as usual. Lin Yue was not stupid; if she studied hard, she could learn well.

Every Sunday morning, Lin Yue teaches Li Yuetian martial arts and urges him to strengthen his body and improve his physical condition.

After barely defeating Lin Yue, who was using 0.05% of his strength, Lin Yue realized that this was already the limit of Li Yuetian's body.

But that should be enough. Li Yuetian has now completely mastered his physique, and tearing apart three decks of cards with his bare hands is already a piece of cake.

"Alright, no need for further instruction. You've surpassed me; your skills have already surpassed mine." Li Yuetian was somewhat bewildered: "Huh? I'm already above you?"

Although he had just defeated Lin Yue in their sparring match, he was completely exhausted. "Yes, you've surpassed me," Lin Yue said with a smile, thinking that even surpassing him by 0.05% counted as surpassing him.

Hearing Lin Yue "admit" didn't make Li Yuetian particularly happy. He didn't actually want to be better than Lin Yue. In his view, if an ordinary guy like him could surpass her after training, then what about a professional who could...?

"Lin Yue." He looked at Lin Yue, then suddenly became serious. "In that case, from now on, let me protect you. Okay?"

At this moment, his eyes were sincere, but his words betrayed a hint of nervousness, yet...

"Okay, then I'll be counting on you from now on!" Lin Yue didn't sense anything amiss. She smiled, turned around, and went upstairs: "It's getting late, I have to go back!"

Li Yuetian watched Lin Yue's retreating figure as she went upstairs, feeling both a sense of loss and a touch of determination.

Disappointed that Lin Yue didn't seem to understand the deeper meaning in his words, he was certain that he now truly had the ability to protect her properly.

"By the way, I've become stronger now, let's go find my sister and have a match!" Li Yuetian thought of Li Yuejiao—as the leader of an assassin organization and the world's number one assassin, he wondered if he could beat her now.

Li Yuetian had just reached the entrance of his residential compound when a sense of crisis suddenly surged into his mind!

Then he sensed someone rapidly approaching from behind! At the same time, he heard terrified screams from passersby!

Having been trained, he reacted quickly, dodging to the side in a flash, and soon a knife appeared in his field of vision!

He turned around quickly, grabbed the wrist of the person in front of him, and easily pushed him to the ground: "Don't move!"

When he saw the person's face clearly, he was somewhat surprised: "Wang Hao! It's you? What do you want?"

He hadn't seen this person in a long time. He heard that his family had gone bankrupt and he had dropped out of school last semester.

Wang Hao was pinned to the ground, unable to move, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Li Yuetian! I'm going to kill you! If I can't have Lin Yue, you won't get her either!"

Li Yuetian was somewhat helpless, but still said seriously, "What do you care about getting her or who she likes?"

Wang Hao wouldn't listen at all: "Stop pretending, I saw it all. You go to her place every week, so why are you so close to her? I ended up homeless because of her! If I can't kill her, surely I can kill you?"

By this time, a crowd had gathered, pointing and whispering among themselves. Li Yuetian frowned; only then did he notice that Wang Hao's clothes were tattered. Had Lin Yue done this? But good riddance! Wang Hao had harmed many girls; he'd finally met his comeuppance.

Just as he was pondering how to deal with Wang Hao, he suddenly heard someone in the crowd shout, "The police are here!" Upon hearing this, Wang Hao became even more frenzied. He suddenly broke free from Li Yuetian's control and lunged at Li Yuetian again with the knife. Li Yuetian dodged to the side and, in a swift motion, swept his leg, tripping Wang Hao once more. Soon, the police pushed through the crowd and rushed in, subduing Wang Hao.

The police took both men to the station. At the station, the police began questioning them about what had happened. Li Yuetian truthfully recounted why Wang Hao had attacked him with a knife. Wang Hao, standing nearby, continued to shout that he wanted to kill Li Yuetian.

After questioning him for a while, the police told Li Yuetian, "That person seems to have some mental issues, but we've also found out that he started it. You can leave after giving a statement."

After giving his statement, Li Yuetian walked out of the police station; it was already dark. He took out his phone, hesitated for a moment, then sent Lin Yue a message, briefly explaining that Wang Hao had attacked him. Soon, Lin Yue called, her voice full of surprise: "Wang Hao is still alive?"

Li Yuetian asked in confusion, "Wang Hao said that you were the one who harmed him. Was it about that day?"

Lin Yue smiled and said, "Yes, but their family's bankruptcy was your sister's doing, it has little to do with me." Although Wang Yan was indeed killed by her, and Li Yuejiao only did the cleanup work, there was no need to mention that.

Li Yuetian was somewhat surprised, not expecting that his sister was involved. Lin Yue continued, "Wang Hao is the kind of person who has done all sorts of bad things, and he deserves to end up like this. I'm not worried about you at all. If he succeeds in ambushing you with your current strength, you'll be no different from a piece of trash."

Hearing Lin Yue's teasing, Li Yuetian jokingly said, "You still dare to laugh at me? Do you want to get beaten up?"

"Hmph, you dare!" Li Yuetian said with a smile, "As long as you study hard, I naturally won't hit you." The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up the phone.

As soon as Li Yuetian put his phone away, he saw his sister Li Yuejiao standing not far away.

"Sister, what brings you here?" Li Yuetian asked, somewhat surprised. Li Yuejiao walked over and patted him on the back: "I have a police officer friend who said you got into trouble and is planning to come and bail you out."

Li Yuetian was both amused and exasperated: "Sister, I didn't do anything wrong." He briefly explained the situation. Li Yuejiao nodded: "Wang Hao's family are no good. They deserved to go bankrupt."

Suddenly, Li Yuejiao thought of something and teased, "Oh, I've noticed you're going to Lin Yue's house every week. How's it going between you two? Is she doing what I expected?"

Li Yuetian blushed at the thought of that scene and quickly explained, "Sister, don't talk nonsense. I'm just tutoring her right now."
