People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

  Chapter 17: Sky-Splitting Seat

  . The man battling Xiao Ling was none other than Lin Xiuya, the second-strongest student on the Canaan Academy rankings in the original novel. Even before entering the Inner Court, at seventeen, he had already reached the rank of Four-Star Grand Master, capable of competing against the current leader of one of the eight ancient races.

  Xiao Ling's current acquaintances in the Outer Court included Lin Xiuya, Liu Qing, Lin Yan, and Han Yue.

  Thanks to their exceptional talent and exceptional alchemy skills, Xiao Ling had developed close relationships with them. The four of them had even discussed joining forces in the "Fire Energy Hunting Competition" six months from now to seize the old man's fire energy. This way, they wouldn't have to worry about cultivation resources upon entering the Inner Court.

  Xiao Ling remembered that by the end of the novel, all three men had reached the semi-saint stage. While they had Xiao Yan's help, such achievements were impossible without some talent.

  As for building a good relationship with Han Yue, all he could say was, "Black Silk Sisters," ahem.

  Pulling Lin Xiuya up from the ground, the two of them headed towards the passageway leading out of the competition arena.

  Suddenly, a black monster flew out of the passage and landed in front of Xiao Ling, nuzzling his cheek affectionately before circling him.

  A closer look revealed a slender body, mostly black, with a few golden circles on its back. Red-edged wings bordered its shoulders and lower body, and a fin-like structure at the end of its tail. Its head bore two long, flattened horns, with two smaller horns below. Its upper snout tipped with two distinct fangs. It possessed a pair of yellow eyes with black pupils in between. It had two arms, each endowed with three claws, each gleaming with a faint, cold light, their sharpness instantly evident. It swirled and danced in the air, appearing incredibly agile.

  This was the Rayquaza Pokémon egg Xiao Ling had drawn earlier. After nearly a year of incubation, it was born on Xiao Ling's ninth birthday.

  I had expected it to be an ordinary Rayquaza, but it was unexpectedly shimmering. It was truly stunning.

  After patting Rayquaza's head, Xiao Ling said to it, "Xiaokong, come into my sleeve. I'll make you some candy later."

  Rayquaza nodded, licked Xiao Ling's cheek, and then shrank back into Xiao Ling's sleeve. Seeing this,

  Lin Xiuya, standing nearby, eyes filled with envy, said sourly, "This fellow is incredibly handsome. I want one too."

  Xiao Ling simply smiled enigmatically. There was only one Rayquaza on the Douqi Continent, and it was impossible for anyone else to capture it.

  This Rayquaza had incredible potential, already a Tier 3 magical beast. Simply feeding it medicinal herbs would absorb energy and refine it to increase its strength. However, the amount it consumed was quite large, nearly three times the resources required for a human cultivator. Xiao Ling couldn't afford to support it at the moment, as he was still using resources provided by the school.

  So why was its cultivation level improving so rapidly? Of course, it had found a wonderful mother: Xiao Xun'er, the wealthiest woman on the Douqi Continent. It was fed medicinal herbs like they were free, and its cultivation level rapidly increased. Xiao Xun'er fed it the majority of its food, with Xiao Ling only occasionally refining pills for it.

  Yes, Xiao Xun'er had also come to Canaan Academy. When Xiao Ling was nine, she arrived at Canaan Academy with the cultivation level of an eighth-year-old, eighth-level Dou Qi. Of course, no one knew her true level, but Xiao Ling guessed it was probably no worse than his own. In the original novel, Xiao Xun'er neglected her training to save face for Xiao Yan. Later, Xiao Yan's invincibility was only surpassed by Xiao Xun'er after absorbing the Pure Lotus Demon Fire and some of the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame. All one could say was, "God-grade bloodline, terrifying as it is." With Xiao Ling's cultivation level advancing so rapidly, Xiao Xun'er might not need to cultivate at full strength, but she certainly wouldn't waste her talent.

  After exiting the passage, a charming young woman approached and flashed Xiao Ling a captivating smile.

  That fleeting moment of grace dimmed the surroundings, as if the entire world was focused on her.

  Xiao Ling was stunned, Lin Xiuya was stunned, and the people around who were paying attention to this place were also stunned.

  After coming to his senses, Xiao Ling felt the gazes of those around him, filled with envy, admiration, and jealousy. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at being so stunned.

  He released the Split Sky Seat from his sleeve, channeling his Dou Qi and landing it steadily on its back.

  He then extended his right hand toward Xiao Xun'er, a beaming smile on his face. "Xun'er, I'll take you for a ride in the heavens."

  Xiao Xun'er nodded happily. Although she often rode the Split Sky Seat herself, Xiao Ling's intense daily training meant he had never accompanied her.

  She placed her soft, white hand on Xiao Ling's large one, channeling his Dou Qi and with a light leap, she sat in front of him.

  Xiao Ling, in turn, wrapped his left arm around Xiao Xun'er's slender waist, pulling her closer to him.

  Feeling the sweet, soft warmth of this little creature in his arms, Xiao Ling felt a sense of peace and comfort.

  At Xiao Ling's command, the Split Sky Seat, already a shared understanding, immediately understood. With a long roar, he soared into the sky, disappearing from everyone's sight.

  Lin Xiuya, who remained where he was, watched the two vanish, his lips twitching. "

  I'm speechless! They're showing off their affection right in front of me! Is there any justice? Is there any law?"

  Lin Xiuya still hasn't fallen for Xiao Xun'er. Perhaps it's because he's an adult, while Xiao Xun'er is still a nine-year-old girl, almost half his age. Or perhaps it's because he has Xiao Ling, his childhood sweetheart, so he doesn't intend to compete.

  If Xiao Ling knew about this, he'd just shake his head in disdain. "I, Xiao Ling, started with a genius, not Xiao Yan's loser comeback style. I don't bother with showmanship and embarrassment."

  With the Rayquaza's incredible speed, in just a quarter of an hour, they'd already passed through the clouds and soared into the stratosphere.

  The sun was setting, and the sea of clouds was swirling. The setting sun shone above the clouds, creating a world of orange and red, beautiful and magnificent. Of course, the two weren't interested in seeing the sights; it was the people who mattered.

  They were both deeply in love, and riding the same mount, even just for a casual stroll through the city's streets and alleys, was a satisfying experience.

  As for the scenery, it was merely a minor embellishment.

  As Rayquaza flew, the wind whipped across their faces, blowing their hair in all directions.

  The interweaving of blue, silver, and black hair created a tranquil and graceful scene.
