Chapter 127 Licking the Dog

North Courtyard, Training Ground.

In a small courtyard belonging to Team One, two figures were sparring.

One in black, one in red, fists and feet clashing at lightning speed.

In no time at all.

Luo Qingfeng's black outfit was covered with tiny footprints.

"Take another one of my Phantom Kicks!"

The little girl, dressed in a fiery red dress, suddenly leaped up lightly, kicking her feet and creating a dense trail of footprints, like a red cloud that enveloped Luo Qingfeng opposite her.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Luo Qingfeng raised his fists to defend, his fists transforming into a dense array of fist shadows as he met the attack.

But he was ultimately outmatched; he was kicked several times in the chest and twice in the face and mouth, and was sent flying.

Fortunately, neither side used their full strength.

After falling to the ground, he immediately stood up, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, spat a few times, and then looked at the person opposite him and said, "Could you please stop kicking my mouth and face?"

Dong Miaomiao smiled smugly and said in a crisp voice, "That won't do. You can block kicks to your chest and stomach, but I'm afraid I might accidentally hurt you if I kick your groin. Only kicking your face and mouth will hit you every time."

Then she suddenly blinked her bright eyes and said, "Brother Feng, did you deliberately let me kick your face and mouth?"

Luo Qingfeng ignored her and suddenly pointed behind her, saying, "Hey, what's that candied hawthorn skewer over there!"

Upon hearing this, Dong Miaomiao immediately turned her head and looked around: "Ah, where are the candied hawthorns?"

Luo Qingfeng immediately rushed over and kicked her small face.

This little girl kicked him in the face several times, so it's not too much to kick her back, is it?

"boom!"

To everyone's surprise, Dong Miaomiao instantly unleashed a dense barrage of tiny fists, shouting, "Behold my Phantom Fist!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Luo Qingfeng was sent flying again, and his kick was instantly struck by several punches.

"Snapped!"

He fell to the ground in a sorry state.

Dong Miaomiao clenched her little fist, tilted her chin up, and said smugly, "Trying to ambush me? Humph! No way!"

Luo Qingfeng, covered in dust and dirt, got up from the ground and couldn't help but ask, "Can you use your innate supernatural ability indefinitely?"

Dong Miaomiao said crisply, "Of course, as long as I have enough star power in my body, I can keep using it. But as you can see, the power wasn't very strong at the beginning."

Luo Qingfeng was filled with envy and said, "That's because you didn't use your full strength."

Dong Miaomiao sighed and said, "Even if I use my full strength, I still feel that I can't compare to many treasures."

As she spoke, she looked at a large rock beside her, then channeled her star power and threw a punch.

"Whoosh!"

A dense array of fists appeared and landed on the large rock.

"boom!"

The rock was instantly smashed into fragments, and then crushed into powder by the remaining fist.

In an instant, the rock, which was half a person tall, turned into a cloud of blue powder that scattered everywhere.

Luo Qingfeng was secretly alarmed when he saw this scene.

That rock was much harder than his face. Luckily, the little girl hadn't used her full strength.

Dong Miaomiao withdrew her small fist, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "You see, it's not actually very powerful, and what I'm most dissatisfied with is that it doesn't have any cool effects. I wonder if it will be better after the upgrade, at least there should be some colorful fist auras, right?"

Luo Qingfeng was speechless and remained silent.

Dong Miaomiao looked at him and said, "By the way, Brother Feng, you've already advanced to the sixth level of the Heavenly Opening Realm, but you still haven't awakened your innate divine power?"

Luo Qingfeng sighed and said, "No."

The "X-ray vision" ability is utterly useless. Not only does it have no offensive power, but it also has such a long cooldown. It's a shame that I had been looking forward to this innate ability for so long. It's incredibly disappointing.

Dong Miaomiao comforted her, "It's okay, maybe you'll get it next time you advance."

Luo Qingfeng suddenly looked at her and said, "Miaomiao, I remember you used to have a special talent called [wall-penetrating], right?"

"Huh? What? [Wall-walking]? I didn't do that."

Dong Miaomiao looked completely bewildered.

Luo Qingfeng glanced at her again and said, "Okay, maybe I remembered it wrong."

I reckon this little girl's ability to "walk through walls," like his "clairvoyance," is something she'd be too embarrassed to admit, since they're both petty thieves with some shameful skills.

Of course, the ability to "pass through walls" is far more useful than his "clairvoyance".

At least in dangerous situations, you can escape by walking through walls to save your life.

And what about his "X-ray vision"? In a dangerous situation, is he supposed to yell at the enemy, "Hey, don't kill me! I can see right through you! I know your size, I know if you're pink or black!"

I reckon I'll die even faster after I say that.

Sigh, it's really a useless thing.

Actually, some things, when seen too clearly, don't seem appealing and can even be quite boring. It's the veiled, the hazy, that arouse people's curiosity and anticipation.

"Oh dear, my stomach is growling. I haven't eaten breakfast yet."

Dong Miaomiao clutched her rumbling stomach.

Luo Qingfeng looked up and saw that the sun was already high in the sky.

It was already noon.

but……

He had no money on him.

Dong Miaomiao swallowed hard and said, "I heard that the food in the North Campus cafeteria is delicious, and there are all kinds of tasty monster meat. Brother Feng, please take me there to eat!"

Luo Qingfeng's lips twitched slightly.

Monster meat—just hearing about it makes his heart ache. He can't even afford ordinary meat now, let alone the expensive monster meat.

"Um... Miaomiao, let's eat out..."

Dong Miaomiao asked in confusion, "Why?"

Luo Qingfeng explained, "The cafeteria is always crowded, and I've eaten there before. The food is really not good. I think the food outside is much better."

Dong Miaomiao said, "But my older brother said the food here is delicious. He went out on a mission and has been gone for several months. Before he left, he said he would bring me to the North Courtyard for dinner when he came back."

Luo Qingfeng stammered, unsure how to answer, when Dong Miaomiao smiled sweetly: "Okay, let's eat out. Anyway, I don't care, I have all kinds of food at home."

"Um."

Luo Qingfeng led her out of the courtyard.

No sooner had they stepped out of the courtyard than they encountered Lin Yun and his group of new disciples.

Luo Qingfeng had no choice but to take the initiative to go over and greet them.

The oldest among them, Liang Feng, was still the most enthusiastic, smiling broadly as he said, "Junior Brother Luo is cultivating here again. You're really diligent."

He then glanced at the girl in the red dress behind him and asked, "And who is this...?"

Luo Qingfeng said, "My sister."

Dong Miaomiao immediately said in a crisp voice, "She's not my biological sister."

Then she smiled sweetly at the disciples and said, "Hello everyone, I hope you will take good care of my brother Feng in the future."

Liang Feng greeted him with a smile.

Lin Yun and the others also smiled and cupped their hands in greeting.

The woman named Yang Mei suddenly spoke up and asked, "She's not a disciple of my Demon Suppression Academy, is she?"

Luo Qingfeng looked at her and said, "No."

Yang Mei frowned slightly and said, "There are rules in the academy that only those from our Demon Suppression Academy..."

Luo Qingfeng interrupted her directly: "The rules of the institute are naturally governed by the institute itself. Can you represent the institute?"

Last time, this woman was already impatient with him. He wanted to ask Senior Brother Liang some questions, but she ruined everything. Today, she directly questioned and scolded him in front of so many people. Of course, he couldn't tolerate it.

Moreover, he had just clearly seen that this woman got angry just because Lin Yun glanced at Dong Miaomiao a few more times and even smiled and greeted her. She's just a sycophant, yet she's so jealous. He won't tolerate her.

Upon hearing this, Yang Mei's face immediately filled with anger: "You..."

"Shut up!"

Luo Qingfeng didn't let her continue, and directly pulled Dong Miaomiao to leave.

Yang Mei's face flushed red with embarrassment and anger: "Luo Qingfeng! You're just a cripple who was rejected by the South Academy and kindly taken in by Deacon Liang! What right do you have to break the rules of our North Academy and bring people to our training grounds to train?"

Luo Qingfeng stopped and looked at her calmly: "I've already said that the rules of the courtyard are naturally managed by the people in charge of maintaining them. It's not your place to manage them. You're just an ugly, short sycophant with a cultivation level of only five stars in the Opening Heaven Realm. What right do you have to tell me what to do? I suggest you go back and take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror."

Yang Mei was instantly enraged. With a loud clang, she drew her sword and said with a face full of shame and indignation, "You dare to insult me? Aren't you also at the fifth level of the Open Heaven Realm? I heard you forced your advancement with pills, and your potential has long been exhausted. You'll just be a cripple in the future! If it weren't for Deacon Liang taking pity on you and kindly taking you in, would you have been able to enter my North Courtyard?"

Liang Feng quickly advised, "Alright, alright, we're all fellow disciples, it's just a small matter, there's no need to make such a fuss."

The others also quickly tried to persuade him.

Zhang Cuicui also said, "It's not a big deal. Just bring people in for a friendly spar and report it to the authorities."

Yang Mei was so angry that tears streamed down her face. Her sword trembled in her hand as she cried, "He called me ugly and short, and even called me a simp! I challenge him to a duel!"

Unexpectedly, Dong Miaomiao suddenly spoke up in a clear voice: "My brother Feng didn't say anything wrong, he was just telling the truth. Is it illegal to tell the truth? You are ugly and short, and everyone can see that."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mei screamed and charged forward with her sword in hand.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Before she could even get close, Dong Miaomiao jumped up and kicked her, leaving a trail of footprints all over her face, mouth, and chest.

"Clang!"

Yang Mei was almost powerless to resist and was kicked away, falling heavily to the ground.

"Tch! You're the real cripple. You can't even catch one of my kicks. You're the cripple among cripples."

Dong Miaomiao landed on the ground, her face full of mockery.

Yang Mei's mouth was full of blood and her face was covered in footprints. She had just raised her head when she heard her say, "Being ugly and short is one thing, but you don't even have a chest. When I kicked you just now, I didn't feel anything at all. It wasn't satisfying at all. You don't even have the elasticity of my brother Feng's pectoral muscles."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mei was filled with shame and anger. Suddenly, overwhelmed by rage, she rolled her eyes and fainted.

At this moment, an elderly man who was in charge of the training grounds heard the commotion, strode over, and shouted, "What are you doing? Fighting?"

Everyone was startled by Dong Miaomiao's kick, and they all looked at the young girl with different expressions. When the old man questioned them, they all came to their senses.

Liang Feng quickly and respectfully recounted what had just happened.

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned, glanced at the bayberries on the ground, and said with a serious expression, "This is the third young lady of the Ningguo Mansion. Elder Yang and Deacon Liang came to say that she could enter the training grounds of Team One, Team Two, and even the Earth Rank training grounds. Since I let her in, it is naturally in accordance with the rules. Where is this female disciple's brain?"

Upon hearing this, none of the disciples dared to speak again, and their eyes secretly glanced at the little girl in the red dress in front of them once more.

"madness!"

The old man cursed, walked up to Yang Mei, and gently patted her forehead. Yang Mei blinked and slowly woke up.

When she first opened her eyes, she was somewhat bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

After a while.

She finally remembered, immediately jumped up from the ground, pointed at Dong Miaomiao opposite her, and angrily cursed, "You little bitch! You..."

"Snapped!"

The old man standing nearby slapped her across the face and shouted, "Insolence!"

Yang Mei was so slapped that she saw stars. Only then did she see the old man standing next to her. She froze for a moment, then hurriedly cried, "Deacon Sun, she...she..."

Zhang Cuicui, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Senior Sister Yang, don't say anymore. It was Steward Sun who let that girl in... She's the daughter of the Ningguo Mansion. Several elders and stewards in the courtyard know her and have all spoken to her, allowing her to come in and cultivate freely..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mei was stunned, her mouth agape, unable to utter a single word.

"snort!"

Dong Miaomiao ignored her and went over to tug at Luo Qingfeng's sleeve, saying, "Brother Feng, let's go eat."

Luo Qingfeng cupped his hands in greeting to the old man and the other disciples before leading her away from the training ground.

After leaving the North Campus.

Dong Miaomiao's stomach started growling again: "Ah, I'm so hungry! Dear brother, what are you going to treat me to? How about we go to a restaurant for roasted fish and whole roasted lamb?"

Luo Qingfeng didn't dare to say anything. He led her down the street, looked around, and finally had to shamelessly ask, "Miaomiao, um... could you lend me some money first?"

Dong Miaomiao was taken aback upon hearing this and turned to look at him.

Luo Qingfeng's cheeks flushed: "Um... I forgot to bring any money... Could you lend me some first..."
