Eat Little Almonds

Chapter 181 The Global Collegiate Inner World Battle Competition

Originally, Qin Xuan's mood had calmed down somewhat, but upon hearing Qiao Yu's words, he exploded again!

He once again raised a stool, ready to fight Qiao Yu to the death.

Fortunately, Qin Qianxue stopped him in time.

"Aunt, don't stop me, I must kill this kid today!" Qin Xuan said, seething with anger.

"Xuan'er! Don't be so rude..."

The voices of Qin Qianxue and Qin Xuan gradually faded into the distance behind him.

The smile on Qiao Yu's face also disappeared.

It seemed his memory was correct; the memories regarding the Blazing Fire Guild and Ruto were indeed real.

However, in that memory, he always felt there was someone's face he couldn't recall no matter what he did.

That person seemed to be a petite girl.

And after defeating Ruto, where did he go?

Why was his memory completely blank between the time he defeated Ruto and when he woke up in the hospital?

Qiao Yu's heart was filled with questions, and he desperately wanted to know the answers.

He had a hunch that that memory, that person he couldn't see clearly, must be very important to him.

"Qiao Yu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Fang Yuan reached out a fair hand and gently massaged Qiao Yu's furrowed brow.

"It's nothing, just thinking about some things."

Qiao Yu shook his head.

"Where are you planning to go next?" Fang Yuan asked.

"Back to school."

"Aren't you going back to the hospital? The doctor said you're not fully recovered yet!" Fang Yuan looked at Qiao Yu anxiously.

"No, lying in that place for too long will make a person useless. I have some things to figure out back at school," Qiao Yu shook his head.

"Okay, then I'll go with you!" Fang Yuan mustered her courage!

Kyoto was so big, yet she was able to meet Qiao Yu again.

Fang Yuan believed this must be a sign from heaven!

This time, she would bravely pursue her own happiness!

Fang Yuan quietly followed beside Qiao Yu, like countless young couples on the street.

Qiao Yu's handsome features and Fang Yuan's sweet appearance attracted the attention of many passersby.

"Junior Brother Qiao Yu!"

A shout attracted Qiao Yu's attention. He turned his head and saw it was Long Xiang, his cheap fellow townsman.

"Senior Brother Long Xiang, what's wrong?" Qiao Yu asked, puzzled.

"Where have you been lately? I've been to the Body Cultivation Class Two several times looking for you but couldn't find you," Long Xiang said with a kind smile.

"I used my head to catch a flying beer bottle, so I ended up in the hospital," Qiao Yu said matter-of-factly.

Long Xiang: "..."

"Senior Brother Long Xiang, is there anything you need?"

"It's like this, there's a dungeon, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in participating," Long Xiang said with a glint in his eyes.

"Not interested, thank you, Senior Brother."

Seeing Qiao Yu turn to leave, Long Xiang quickly grabbed him.

"Don't be in such a hurry! Have you heard of the Global College Otherworld Combat Tournament?"

"Never heard of it." Qiao Yu was already feeling a bit impatient.

"Global College Otherworld Combat Tournament?" Fang Yuan exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that a competition usually participated in by seniors in their third and fourth years?"

"That's right!"

Long Xiang nodded with satisfaction, as if praising Fang Yuan's cooperation.

"The Global College Otherworld Combat Tournament, held every four years, is jointly organized by the upper echelons of the Eastern Alliance and the Western Alliance, and is the most grand competition in the Otherworld!"

"It is the best stage for talented students from various universities to showcase their talents, and it is also a contest of strength between the younger generations of the Eastern and Western Alliances!"

"If you can achieve a ranking in the Global College Otherworld Combat Tournament, you'll get countless benefits like equipment, skills, fame, and all sorts of other things!"

"Last year's champion even received an S-grade equipment reward!"

"And the latest Global College Otherworld Combat Tournament will be held in nine months!"

"What does that have to do with clearing a dungeon?" Fang Yuan was a little confused.

"Of course, it's related!" Long Xiang said with certainty, "Only students who have cleared that dungeon are eligible to participate in the tournament selection!"

"I see!" Qiao Yu's eyes lit up.

Seeing this, Long Xiang crossed his arms and raised his head.

With such a huge temptation in front of him, he didn't believe Qiao Yu wouldn't be tempted!

But after waiting for a long time, Long Xiang didn't hear Qiao Yu continue to ask about the combat tournament.

At this moment, Qiao Yu's voice came from afar.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Long Xiang, for clearing up my doubts. Goodbye, if fate allows! I'll definitely clear that dungeon next time!"

By the time Long Xiang heard these words, Qiao Yu had already dragged Fang Yuan eight hundred meters away.

Long Xiang's face was full of astonishment. An S-grade equipment can't tempt you? Are you stupid, kid?

"Qiao Yu, why are you running so fast? That senior didn't lie to you. What he said about the combat tournament is true," Fang Yuan said, puzzled.

Qiao Yu: "Because he's my fellow townsman."

Fang Yuan: "Fellow townsman? Isn't that even better?"

Qiao Yu: "That's exactly why I'm scared. Haven't you heard the saying? When fellow townsmen meet, they'll scheme to cheat!"

Fang Yuan: "..."

She didn't know what to say.

Qiao Yu didn't continue to explain. Fang Yuan had already said that the combat tournament was a competition for juniors and seniors.

So, he, a freshman, was being pulled by Long Xiang to clear some dungeon. What was the purpose?

Was Long Xiang a great fool who was keen to make selfless contributions? Get real, he'd rather believe that Ma Fei could one day stop showing off.

Ignoring Long Xiang's shouts, Qiao Yu immediately ran away.

Back at Kyoto University, that familiar power of the Otherworld surged into Qiao Yu's body again.

However, when Qiao Yu looked at his stats panel, he was immediately stunned.

"Name: Qiao Yu

Class: Necromancer

Realm: Initial Stage (lv17)

Strength: 444 (Convincing People with Virtue)

Defense: 500 (Solid as a Rock)

Agility: 9

Spirit: 0

Intelligence: 0

Mana: 1700/1700

Health: 5410/5410 (+4440)

Equipment: Corpse Ancestor Ring (A-grade), Golden Dragon Glaive (B-grade), Mad Spider Armor (B-grade), Skeleton King's Ring (C-grade), Wisdom Staff (C-grade)"

What was going on? How did his strength attribute suddenly increase by dozens of points, and his level increased by three levels?

And where was his Azure Dragon Glaive? How did it become a Golden Dragon Glaive? And he even had an extra C-grade staff?

Didn't Yang Xiangdi say that he was hit by a beer bottle and fainted?

Being hit by a beer bottle could bring such great benefits?

Being hit by Guanyin Bodhisattva's jade bottle wouldn't be so outrageous, right!

Qiao Yu firmly believed that these changes must be related to that blank memory. He had to find Yang Xiangdi and ask him clearly!

Qiao Yu and Fang Yuan quickly returned to the dormitory building.

When the dormitory auntie saw Qiao Yu return, she first gave him a kind smile.

She remembered this handsome young man was in the same dormitory as that very wealthy young man.

But as soon as she saw Fang Yuan, the dormitory auntie's face immediately turned sour.

She clearly remembered that the last girl who came looking for this young man wasn't this one!

Good heavens! The thing she hated most in her life was this kind of scumbag who abandons his partner after starting something! Just like that old thing Ji Pingyang!

"Hello, Dorm Auntie," Qiao Yu said casually as he passed by.

"Get out!" The dormitory auntie roared.

Qiao Yu: "?"
