Chapter 117 - 117: Gift (1)
MO Xiu walked out of Gao Quan’s office with a heavy heart.
Just now, Hao Ren sent all the information he had on Bai Fan to MO Xiu.
MO Xiu took a closer look. Bai Fan was once a kind and warm-hearted person who had helped many people. However, in this era where strength was king, not many people would remember his kindness.
Many people would rather swallow their anger and suck up to powerful people than look at people who were good to them but weak.
Not only that, but from the past information, Bai Fan’s mental endurance was very strong. No one thought that he could get into Yan University and was treated coldly.
However, he used his strength to slap everyone in the face. He got into Yan University with full marks for cultural studies and physical examination.
In the first match, the team revealed their weakness in terms of their skills. Even though their physical fitness was excellent, they did not achieve any results.
But even so, Bai Fan did not give up and continued to polish his body.
Upon seeing this, MO Xiu suddenly felt that Bai Fan was like another version of himself, a version of himself with a very poor skill awakening.
However, Bai Fan was different from him in some ways. When he was in high school, MO Xiu was arrogant and focused on training. He didn’t interact much with others.
Bai Fan was very gentle to everyone, but he was ridiculed time and time again.
Next, Moxiu headed straight to the library to settle his business.
After arriving at the library, Moxiu followed Elder Tang’s instructions and found the last row of the library.
There was a door in the last row. The door wasn’t locked, so MO Xiu pushed it open and entered.
This was a bedroom. Mr. Tang used to live here. After Mr. Tang left, no one lived here anymore.
MO Xiu lifted the blanket on the bed and opened the bed board. There was a tunnel underneath.
After entering, there was a tunnel that was more than ten meters wide. It was built with red bricks from top to bottom, left to right, and there were no doors
or rooms.
According to Elder Tang’s description, MO Xiu found the fifty-first brick on the twenty-seventh row and pressed it down hard.
The brick miraculously shrunk into the wall and popped out a keyhole.
Moxiu inserted the key in the envelope into the keyhole and gently twisted it.
After it twisted, there was no movement. MO Xiu looked at the lock strangely.
What was going on? The mechanism was broken? Elder Tang couldn’t be so unreliable, right?
Moxiu reached out to grab the key again, wanting to pull it out and try again.
But this time, the entire lock was pulled out, along with a box.
Moxiu looked at the box in front of him and finally understood. The thing that Elder Tang wanted to give him was in this box.
He had thought that Master Tang had hidden a lot of good things and that there would be a secret room. He did not expect that there would only be a box.
However, it was better than nothing. If Elder Tang took action, it would definitely be something good.
Moxiu eagerly opened the box. There was only a small brown ball the size of a glass ball and a note inside.
She opened the note and saw the words.
“The Heaven Defvinz Pearl is a double-edged sword. Use it with caution!”
Heaven Defying Pearl? The name was very domineering, but he had never heard of it.
MO Xiu took out his phone and went online to check, but there was no relevant information.
This made MO Xiu extremely worried. Old Tang did give him the item, but he didn’t say what it was for or how to use it. He even told him to use it carefully. What should he do?
MO Xiu had no idea what to do, so he went out first. He returned the bed to its original state and walked out of the room.
The moment he walked out, MO Xiu slapped his head. This was the library, the library that Elder Tang had stayed in. There must be information about the Heaven-Defying Pearl in the books.
Following that, Moxiu flipped through almost all the books related to medicinal herbs and weapons. Finally, he saw the name of the Heaven-Defying Pearl in one of the books.
The description of the Heaven-Defying Pearl was only one sentence.” The Heaven-Defying Pearl is a top-notch herb among Earth-rank herbs. It can defy the heavens and awaken a skill in advance.”
MO Xiu was a little surprised. There was actually such a magical herb in this world that could awaken a skill in advance. Moreover, this was the first time MO Xiu had seen an Earth Grade herb.
He picked up this inconspicuous ball and carefully observed it. This thing actually had such a great effect.
This book also recorded the story of the Heaven-Defying Pearl. It turned out that this thing could not be found on the Internet. It was very likely that the news had been blocked.
The Heaven-defying Pearl was used by the royal family. In order to fight against the wild beasts, many people took the Heaven-defying Pearl and awakened their skills in advance to fight.
However, it didn’t mention any side effects of the Heaven Defying Pearl, so why did Elder Tang say to use it with caution?
Since it wasn’t a problem with the herbs, then there must be a problem with the early awakening of the skill.
MO Xiu searched the Internet for the disadvantages of awakening a skill in advance. Only then did he understand the pros and cons. He also finally understood why Zhou Qiuwu had only used one skill.
That was, having too many skills would inevitably distract one’s attention. If one could not focus on understanding a skill, it would cause the skill to level up slowly.
According to the internet, the best time to level up a skill was within a year of awakening, a second skill was within the second year, and so on.
In other words, the best time to level up a skill was within a year of awakening. Therefore, Mr. Tang said that this was a double-edged sword. While it brought more skills, it might affect the leveling of a skill.
Actually, Moxiu was very confident. He believed that his concentration would be able to overcome this difficulty. However, after thinking about it again and again, he decided not to eat the Heaven Defying Pearl for now.
There wasn’t any chaos yet. He would wait until he was forced to.
MO Xiu kept the Heaven Defying Pearl and carried it with him. He was about to leave when he suddenly remembered that he had an old friend when he reached the door.
Ye Qian ‘er, the person who had formed a bond with the Demonic Falcon and had protected him in every way.
He could ignore the others, but Ye Qian ‘er had to.
He wanted to call Ye Qian ‘er, but when he took out his phone and looked at the time, he realized that he should be out soon.
MO Xiu simply stood at the door and waited.
Ever since MO Xiu left high school, Ye Qian ‘er had been going crazy. She wanted to meet MO Xiu in Yan University one day.
MO Xiu had been away for three months and had not contacted Ye Qian ‘er during this period.
Ye Qian ‘er wanted to take the initiative to contact MO Xiu, but every time she picked up the phone, she would struggle for a long time. In the end, she did not give up.
Fortunately, MO Xiu was very popular in Yan University. Ye Qian ‘er could always hear news about MO Xiu from others.
Every time they heard about MO Xiu’s impressive deeds, they would laugh foolishly. He had fought against the top eight in the individual competition, led the Support System to the top four in the team competition, and made history. The latest news was that MO Xiu had advanced to the grand slam in all four competitions.
Ye Qian ‘er was as happy as a child. After she was happy, she secretly worked hard, wanting to close the gap between her and MO Xiu.
In fact, it wasn’t just Ye Qian ‘er. The others were also proud of MO Xiu and Zhou Qiuwu’s achievements in Yan University.
Many people viewed MO Xiu and MO Yu as idols..
