Battle Through the Heavens: Attribute Draw, Top-Tier Comprehension at the Start

Behind Bai Cheng were three or four senior students, each with a strong aura, at least at the Dou Shi level.

When he led his men out from the edge of the woods, Qin Yu was standing on a protruding rock, closing his eyes and meditating.

The mountain wind made his robes rustle slightly, and his bare feet trod on the cold rocks.

"Junior Qin Yu, what a refined taste you have."

Bai Cheng's voice came from behind, but his tone was like that of a cat leisurely playing with a mouse.

Qin Yu opened his eyes and turned around.

Bai Cheng crossed his arms and leaned against an old pine tree. Several senior students formed a semi-encirclement, completely blocking Qin Yu's retreat.

"In the middle of the night, instead of sleeping in the dormitory, you come to this desolate mountain wilderness to cultivate? Ha, you're quite diligent."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people behind him burst into low laughter, their laughter full of mockery.

"Speak your mind, or spit it out."

Bai Cheng wasn't annoyed. He straightened up, took two steps forward, and his fake smile deepened.

"After thinking about what happened in the library, the senior realized that it was indeed a bit inappropriate."

"That's why I came here specifically to apologize to you."

As he spoke, he even made a perfunctory gesture of cupping his hands in greeting.

Qin Yu remained silent, simply watching his performance.

Bai Cheng waited for a moment, and seeing that Qin Yu had no reaction, the smile on his face finally disappeared.

"I've been keeping an eye on those two cultivation manuals and combat techniques you took during the day for quite some time now."

He dropped his facade, and his tone suddenly turned cold.

Qin Yu thought about it carefully and realized that Bai Cheng did not seem to use the Mountain Unicorn Suppressing Mountain technique when he fought Xiao Yan later.

If he really stared at this cultivation manual for a long time, then he probably got his hands on the manual but didn't master it.

"It was granted special permission by the vice president."

Qin Yu replied calmly, and Bai Cheng's smile froze for a moment, a shadow flashing in his eyes.

The vice president granted special permission.

These five words were like a wall, preventing him from taking open action.

But so what?

In the dark mountains, if a freshman "accidentally" falls, bumps, or gets hurt, he can't blame anyone else, right?

"Alright, I'm not going to beat around the bush with you anymore."

He took a step forward, and his internal fighting spirit began to circulate:

"Hand over the item, and this matter will be over. Otherwise, once we get to the competition, you, a four-star fighter..."

He deliberately left his sentence unfinished, only letting out a cold laugh, the meaning of which couldn't be clearer.

Several senior students behind them also stepped forward half a step in coordination, some flexing their wrists, others cracking their knuckles, making a "crackling" sound.

The mountain wind suddenly picked up, making the tree branches rustle.

Qin Yu looked at the people in front of him, his expression remaining unchanged.

"Are you done talking?"

Bai Cheng was taken aback.

He had prepared a whole host of words, some threatening, some intimidating, and some using both soft and hard tactics.

They were just waiting for Qin Yu to show a panicked or angry expression before slowly dealing with him.

But to his utter surprise, the other party only uttered these three words after hearing them.

"you..."

Bai Cheng opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.

"If there's nothing else, don't disturb their cultivation."

Qin Yu glanced at him indifferently, his eyes calm, without anger, fear, or even disdain.

It's simply...indifference.

Bai Cheng's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red, and the senior students behind him also erupted in uproar.

"Brother Cheng, this kid's too arrogant!"

"We absolutely have to teach him a lesson today!"

"Damn it, what's with the act of a four-star Dou Zhe!"

Several people rolled up their sleeves and were about to charge upwards, their fighting spirit already surging on their bodies.

This time, Bai Cheng didn't stop him. His face was terribly grim, and his fists were clenched so tightly they cracked.

"Qin Yu, you asked for this..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Yu made his move.

He slightly bent his knees, and his internal fighting spirit suddenly circulated, a powerful force surging from his dantian to his feet.

"boom!"

The next second, the rock beneath Qin Yu's feet shattered, sending fragments flying everywhere.

Bai Cheng subconsciously squinted for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Qin Yu jumped directly off the cliff, but he moved like a mountain deer, leaping and bounding along the nearly 90-degree cliff with incredible agility.

Bai Cheng's gaze was fixed on him, but he could only see a figure getting smaller and smaller.

In just a few breaths, Qin Yu had already reached the mountainside, his speed not slowing down at all.

A few breaths later, his figure disappeared into the woods at the foot of the mountain.

A mountain breeze blew by, carrying the rustling sound of a leaf.

Bai Cheng stood there, his mouth slightly open, a mixture of emotions making his expression look somewhat distorted.

"What... what the hell is this movement technique?"

A senior student behind him stammered, and he was a wind-attribute fighter who considered himself to be fast among his peers.

But honestly, he couldn't do Qin Yu's smooth and fluid series of jumps.

Moreover, earth-attribute battle qi... how could it possibly have such speed?

The group looked at each other, momentarily forgetting their earlier plan to rush forward and attack.

Bai Cheng remained silent.

He stood on the rock where Qin Yu had just stood, looking down at the shattered rocks beneath his feet, then looking up at the dark forest at the foot of the mountain.

Under the moonlight, his expression shifted between light and shadow.

This Qin Yu is no ordinary person.

No wonder he won the favor of the vice dean; his skill of jumping off a cliff alone is something that ordinary fighters cannot do.

"Brother Cheng...look..."

The person behind him spoke cautiously. Bai Cheng took a deep breath, suppressing the surging anger in his heart and the slight fear he was unwilling to admit.

"Walk."

He turned around and strode down the mountain, his pace much faster than when he came.

The others quickly followed, and no one mentioned fighting again.

When they reached the halfway point of the mountain, Bai Cheng suddenly stopped, looked up at the cliff face from which Qin Yu had just leaped, and his eye twitched.

Ninety degrees is a right angle, and eighty-nine degrees is a slope, right?

"Qin Yu..."

He muttered something to himself, looked away, and quickened his pace.

At the foot of the mountain, Qin Yu had already left the mountain, and his breathing remained steady.

Although his cliff jump was a risky move, it also deepened his understanding of the Mountain Leap technique through a series of maneuvers.

By harnessing the power of the earth, the momentum of the mountains, and the advantages of the terrain, the mountains seemed to respond to him wherever he stepped, making each instance of leveraging power smoother and more precise than the last.

Moonlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on his face.

The effect of Shan Linyue's fighting technique was much better than he had expected.

"Tomorrow is the first day of class, let's call it a day for tonight."

Qin Yu stretched vigorously and then walked towards the dormitory.

Tomorrow is the first day of school, and it wouldn't be good to be late.
