The Immortal God of War

Chapter 19 Unexpected Failure

Liu Chi got up at daybreak, but not for morning exercise. It was rare for Liu Chi to dress himself up to look like a serious person.

I kept leaning against the door of the feeding room. I didn't say anything, but I roughly knew what he was going to do.

After a long time, the sound of the lock cylinder turning rang in my ears.

Liu Chi quickly turned around and stood up straight.

The one who opened the door was slightly startled when he saw Liu Chi. His gaze quickly moved to the right, and his eyes were a little red and swollen, as if he had been crying or had not slept all night.

"Happy birthday!" Liu Chi said with a smile and presented a very exquisite gift box with both hands.

He shifted his gaze to the gift box and took it with trembling hands.

"I know everything." His voice was a little hoarse.

"But I haven't told you yet?"

"Sister Qing told me."

"So you know everything?"

He nodded and held the gift box tightly with both hands.

"I can't go back to what happened to my father. I just want to stay by my master's side."

Liu Chi pulled Xiao Wei into his arms and stroked Xiao Wei's head with his hand.

"I'm sorry, I was so stupid."

So I was fed dog food all the time. I could see that Liu Chi was somewhat interested in Xiao Wei, especially after Wei started his "secondary development" these days, Liu Chi liked to "sneak a glance" at him from time to time.

"Cough cough~"

After I coughed twice, Liu Chi stopped.

"Master, are you feeling unwell?"

Xiao Wei looked at Liu Chi and asked,

"No, my throat is just dry." Liu Chi replied with a smile, "I'll go upstairs to drink some water."

After saying that, Liu Chi just slipped away and asked me quietly in the stairwell,

"Why are you coughing?"

"Do you like Lilith?" I got straight to the point.

"I just treat her as a sister, don't think too much about it."

I don’t understand why people nowadays are so stubborn. Liu Chi is relatively thick-skinned and doesn’t even admit it to me.

"That's good. I was just afraid that you would snatch my sister away."

"No way? Zhu Xiu, what do you mean?"

"Nothing, drink your water, I'm going to read a book first."

Liu Chi poured himself a full glass of water, drank it all, and went downstairs to his room.

Liu Chi sat in a chair, meditating with his eyes closed, and soon it was time for breakfast.

I usually have breakfast in the cafeteria of the North Campus. I didn’t expect to see Qinglin when I went upstairs this time. Qinglin was sitting in the living room drinking tea.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Liuchi." Qinglin put down the teacup in his hand and looked in my direction.

Judging from Qinglin’s eyes, I felt that it was definitely not a good thing.

"What's the matter?" Liu Chi walked over and asked while half squatting in front of the table.

"What about the cultivation of vital energy? Did you make a mistake? Why am I practicing every day but still stuck in the human realm? And my magic power is showing signs of being assimilated?"

Maybe Liu Chi didn't know why, so he didn't speak for a long time.

"You don't know, or you don't want to say?" Qinglin's expression turned serious.

"I can't provide any useful help or advice on your training. I don't have any vitality or magic power, so I can't judge."

"Well, can you explain why my magic power was assimilated by the vital energy?"

Liu Chi was silent for a moment, probably because he really couldn't explain anything. But Qinglin's statement that the vitality would assimilate the magic power made me more interested. Did it become stronger? Or weaker? So I asked my question.

"So, after your magic power was assimilated by the energy, did you become stronger or weaker?"

"Hmm~ I can't say it's stronger, but I feel that the magic power has been forcibly made up for the shortcomings of the vitality and has been converted, resulting in the magic power not being pure enough."

"Have you cultivated to the human realm?" I asked this question. It seems that Qinglin's cultivation progress is not synchronized with mine. I must figure out what the cultivation of vital energy will be like. For this reason, I am still trying to catch up with the progress. Maybe it is because I don't need to be distracted by magic power.

"With my talent, I'm stuck in the human realm. I can't figure out why. I haven't made any progress in the past few days, so~" Qinglin looked at me,

How would I know Qinglin's actual cultivation situation? Besides, everyone's understanding is different, and the way of cultivation must be different. As for what I can still teach Qinglin now, I really couldn't think it through for the moment. Instead, Liu Chi spoke for me. I guess it was because I took too long to think about it.

"The assimilation of vitality into magic power has only happened recently, right? According to my analysis, after reaching the human realm, vitality has already taken shape. In order to maintain the energy balance in the body, some magic power has been assimilated. This is just my guess based on the content in the book."

"Oh?"

"Of course, there is a second guess, which is that the vitality is consuming the magic power, and the vitality and magic power cannot coexist."

"Ah~?" Qinglin's expression changed slightly.

"However, the second guess is not mentioned in the book, so it can be basically ruled out. There is also a third guess."

"speak!"

"The energy level of Yuan Qi is higher than that of magic power, which causes the magic power to be automatically assimilated. However, you are currently unable to use the two together well, resulting in the impurity of magic power."

"So these are just your guesses?"

Liu Chi did not answer directly, but paused for a while, "I think my guess must be correct, the details can only be discovered by you in your future practice."

"Hahaha~~Okay!" Qinglin laughed, "I heard that you seem to be very talented in sword skills?"

"It's just a shortcut. I happened to have come across it before." Liu Chi replied.

"Is that so? Haha~~ You kid, oh, what a pity."

After saying that, Qinglin's figure flashed slightly, and he teleported away with a burst of light.

"Finally left." I said, "Why did you come upstairs for nothing? Could it be?"

"I'm here to look for Qingyan. If I had told Lilith, things wouldn't have been so simple. I have to thank her."

Liu Chi walked to Qingyan's door and knocked twice. After a while, he knocked a few more times.

“It seems not.” I said

Liu Chi shook his head, "Forget it."

Then Liu Chi went downstairs to have breakfast by himself, because he had classes to attend after breakfast.

Imperial College advocates students' independent learning, so except for special arrangements, there are usually only two hours of classes from 8:30 to 10:30 in the morning, and the rest of the time is free to arrange. After breakfast, Liu Chi paced around the Imperial College in the center for a long time before going to class obediently.

I don’t seem to know what the content of today’s class is, because a female teacher I don’t recognize appeared, and her clothes were also different from those of ordinary teachers.

The female teacher stood on the podium, holding a folder under her left arm, and glanced around the classroom.

"Students who failed the test last month will be persuaded to drop out by the academy. If you still want to continue studying at the Imperial College, you can pay a deposit. Below are the names of the students who failed. If you hear your name, please go through the withdrawal procedures yourself." The female teacher paused, opened the folder in her hand, and looked at it.

"Liu Chi~Okay, these are the students who failed the exam. Today's class ends here. I wish all students academic success in the new month!" After saying that, the female teacher packed up the documents and walked out. Others glanced at Liu Chi and turned away. Bursts of laughter came from not far away.

"I'm so upset! Why didn't I pass the test? Didn't I get 90 points?" I was a little speechless, "Go ask."

Liu Chi answered me, "I don't think it's necessary. If you do that, you won't have to learn swordsmanship. Any close combat is rubbish."

"It's always good to have many skills!" I emphasized, "Now I can catch up with you and ask you something. Even if you don't want to learn, I still want to learn. We are one, right?"

"There are really a lot of things to do." After my persuasion, Liu Chi slowly walked out because most of the students in the classroom had left.

After I walked out of the classroom, the female teacher stood not far away and looked at me with a smile. It seemed that she was prepared.

"If you want to ask, ask her yourself." After Liu said this, he stopped the female teacher.

"You are Liu Chi, right? Are you dissatisfied with the test?" the female teacher said with a smile.

"Why didn't you pass? Didn't the martial arts demonstration get 90 points?" I asked.

"Oh! Are you talking about this? The rules have been changed. It's the leader's decision. I can't do anything about it."

"Why is the Imperial College still doing this? Using hidden rules to earn deposits?" I deliberately raised my voice.

"Why? Imperial College isn't owned by your family, why do you care so much? Besides, failing doesn't necessarily mean you have to drop out. I heard that Vice Dean Qing arranged for you to come in?"

"That's right Qinglin. Does this mean I can continue to learn swordsmanship here?"

"Haha~~" The female teacher suddenly raised her head and laughed, "Come to the main office building tomorrow, on the sixth floor."

"What time?" I learned that it might really have nothing to do with dropping out of school, and the withdrawal procedures were not that complicated.

"During normal working hours, there are people all the time. Don't think too much. It's not that I want to see you."

"Who wants to see me then?"

"You'll know when you come tomorrow. Okay, don't block my way." The female teacher rolled her eyes at me. Liu Chi quickly made way in front of him. The female teacher passed by and a faint fragrance came from her.
