Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 216 Little Follower
Qin Xiyun was startled by her teacher's shout from the podium and immediately became furious. Who was she to be? No one had ever dared to speak to her like that. However, given the special occasion and Su Yang's presence, she couldn't lash out immediately and could only lower her head and remain silent. Seeing her silence, the teacher didn't reprimand her further but continued to concentrate on explaining.
Time passed quickly, and Qin Xiyun's little actions no longer attracted Su Yang's attention. After his master's detailed explanation, Su Yang gained a systematic understanding of the composition and use of elemental power. In particular, when the explanation of the dual elements of the demon race was given, a bold idea came to him.
"If the birth of the demon race was due to absurd elemental experiments that caused the mental breakdown of humans, isn't that similar to schizophrenia? It's just that it didn't ultimately form a dual personality or multiple personalities. Or it's the effect of elemental power that keeps the mind in a single personality, but the elemental power mastered by the other personality can be called upon at any time. In essence, it might be the double mental power brought about by a dual personality."
"The strength of one's mental power is enhanced through the continuous accumulation of experience and knowledge. If this is indeed the case, it means that since I came into this world, I have naturally possessed mental power that surpasses that of everyone else, and I can naturally master multiple elements at the same time and make rapid progress. Considering the situation of the demon race, perhaps what the demon race has not achieved is the ability to use two different elemental powers in battle at the same time."
Su Yang recalled the scene where he had unintentionally used two elemental powers at the same time: "I used to use two elemental powers at the same time and achieved good results. Could it be because of the modern scientific knowledge I have mastered? This knowledge is something that the people and demons of this world have not mastered. Since I can use two elements at the same time, then perhaps using multiple elements at the same time can also work?"
"For example, air and fire, air and light? Perhaps as long as a balance is achieved between the elements, even elements with conflicting attributes can form a combined force. This may still need to be tested, but how can I learn the power of other elements?"
Su Yang pondered whether he could use multiple elemental powers simultaneously to create a more powerful skill, but after much thought, he returned to the most basic question: how to learn a new elemental power. After all, according to his master, elemental power is something that humans are born with from the moment they are born.
Su Yang couldn't figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. When he recalled learning the elements of mist, light, air, and earth, it all seemed to be a coincidence. Not long after, he remembered the time he learned the element of earth. It was in the Duchy of Paisen, fighting against an unknown enemy. He was injured by stone spikes formed by earth elements. In the world of the Spirit Tree, he was healed by that tree. From then on, he learned the element of earth.
"Could it be that after being injured, one can absorb new elemental power? But that doesn't seem right. When I learned the air element, I was practicing flying skills. It seems that I gradually learned it over time. Could it be a matter of how long I was exposed to the elemental element? Sigh, never mind, I'll find out when I have time."
Shaking his head, Su Yang decided not to think about such a profound question for now. He would find out the reason by trying it out when he had time. Just then, his master announced the end of the lecture. All the students in the lecture hall stood up and began to stretch their bodies, after all, a class had been too long.
Su Yang also stood up and walked outside the lecture hall to stretch and relax. Qin Xiyun followed him out the door. Su Yang did not notice her movements and suddenly stopped. Qin Xiyun bumped into his back.
Feeling as if his back had been bumped, Su Yang turned around and saw Qin Xiyun rubbing her head, looking at him with slight annoyance. He assumed that he was blocking her way, so he tactfully moved aside to make it easier for her to walk.
Unexpectedly, Qin Xiyun just stood there rubbing her head, showing no intention of leaving. Su Yang was worried that she would try to extort money from him, so he decided to leave first, thinking he would go somewhere else to rest. However, Qin Xiyun immediately followed him as soon as she saw him leave, making no attempt to hide her behavior.
When Su Yang realized this, he was filled with worry. From his perspective, the woman was definitely trying to extort money from him, which was why she had been following him all this way. However, even after changing locations several times, Qin Xiyun was still following him. Su Yang had no choice but to quicken his pace, gradually turning from a brisk walk to a run. Qin Xiyun also ran with him, and thus, a peculiar scene appeared in Puzhao Academy: a man running in front and a woman chasing behind.
This attracted the attention of many students, who all said it was a rumor that spread from person to person, and the story got more and more outrageous. Suddenly, all sorts of things were being said: some said the woman was pursuing the man, some said the unfaithful man had abandoned his wife, and some said the two had a blood feud...
Gradually, more and more people gathered to watch the spectacle, and it eventually turned into the two of them running ahead, followed by a group of students chasing after them. This commotion soon reached the ears of Zhou Changning and Jiang Jishi, who were drinking tea.
Jiang Jishi felt it was absurd and sighed, "The students recruited by this academy are getting worse every year. They finally get into the academy, but instead of studying hard, they think about those things related to love and sex all day long. What kind of behavior is this!"
Zhou Changning was happy to watch the show. Since the incident didn't happen at his own Yanbo Academy, he added insult to injury by saying, "Hey, Brother Jiang, it's good that young people are energetic. Why don't we go and find out what's going on?"
Although Jiang Jishi was furious, he couldn't refute the argument. He could only go with Zhou Changning to see which student had openly caused such a disturbance on campus.
But when the two arrived at the scene and saw the two main characters, they immediately looked at each other in bewilderment. Jiang Jishi, no matter how much he had complaints, dared not vent them on Qin Xiyun. Zhou Changning, of course, also knew that Qin Xiyun and Su Yang could not be offended, so he could only awkwardly laugh and say, "Hehe, Brother Jiang, I think these students from your academy are really something. They're just running around normally, exercising, what's so exciting about it! Don't you think so?"
Jiang Jishi readily agreed, saying, "That's right! Ah, Brother Zhou, you have much more experience in educating people. I'll go and criticize those students who love to watch the show!"
After saying that, Jiang Jishi took three steps at a time and quickly walked up to the group of students, and said sternly, "Instead of wasting time watching the show, you should go back and digest what you learned today. As students of the academy, don't you have any self-awareness? What kind of behavior is this!"
After being reprimanded by Jiang Jishi, the students scattered like birds and beasts, and soon there were no more people watching the commotion. Zhou Changning and Jiang Jishi then exchanged a helpless glance and walked back.
The chase between Su Yang and Qin Xiyun was nearing its end. After running for so long, even with his strong physique, Su Yang's stamina was limited. However, he was quite surprised that the woman behind him had exceptionally good stamina. Although she was also panting, she was still able to keep up with him.
Finally, Su Yang was too exhausted to run any further. He found a patch of grass and lay down, panting heavily. Qin Xiyun soon followed, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Su Yang lying on the ground, and seemed about to say something, but in the end, she also lay down on the ground, panting heavily.
Before long, it seemed that both of them had regained some strength, and they got up at the same time. After exchanging a glance, Su Yang instinctively got up to leave, but Qin Xiyun called him back.
"Stop! Why are you running!"
