"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?!"
"What's wrong, Dad? Do you know them?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded, then laughed and said, "Hahaha, I'm just marveling at how fate has brought you four children together. You must have been quite young, around the time you and Yu Han were two years old. Your Uncle Qian Mo, Tang Xuan, Tang Chen's father Tang Zhen, and I went to visit the Ice God Sect. There, you, Yu Han, the two brothers Tang Xuan and Tang Chen, and the Ice God Douluo's daughter—we put all five of you in one room to play while we went to drink. Later, we heard from the servants that the five of you were fighting in the room, and wow, it was quite a fierce fight! In the end, Yu Han was pulling that little girl along, pointing at the other three of you, making all sorts of noise. It was so funny, hahaha."
Mu Chen was startled: I didn't expect the four of us had met before... Fate is truly amazing!

Qian Yuhan returned to Mingyue Villa and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate.
Qian Yuhan has now reached the bottleneck of level 37 and feels that she will be able to break through soon.
After absorbing the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Blossom, Qian Yuhan still had a considerable amount of spiritual energy remaining in his body. If he absorbed it all, he would probably be able to reach the Soul Sect level.
It seems I need to go all out for the final practical exam this semester and try to make a breakthrough.
Qian Yuhan controlled his soul power to flow through every meridian in his body, and felt his whole body being nourished as the soul power flowed through him.
Qian Yuhan thought to herself: This feeling is so wonderful, so warm and comfortable.
Just as the soul power flowed into his spiritual sea and was constantly nourishing it, Qian Yuhan suddenly felt a significant fluctuation in his spiritual sea.
Moreover, Qian Yuhan felt that there were two forces contending within her spiritual sea.
Qian Yuhan hurriedly entered the Sea of Spirit, and as soon as he entered, he discovered that his Martial Soul, the Divine Sword of Light, was engaged in a fierce battle with a cluster of blood-red light.
The Divine Sword of Light seemed to be slightly losing ground. Qian Yuhan immediately sensed something was wrong and hurriedly transferred his soul power to the Divine Sword of Light.
After several more exchanges, the Sword of Light finally suppressed the crimson light. With the sword's blade pointing downwards, the crimson light seemed to be sealed away, ceasing its agitation under the sword's control…
"Phew, it's finally calm." Qian Yuhan exclaimed softly.
Qian Yuhan woke up from his cultivation and was surprised to find that the Divine Sword of Light and the blood-red light ball had been fighting inside his body. The blood-red light ball had overflowed with a lot of power, which his body had completely absorbed, and his soul power had actually broken through.
Qian Yuhan was overjoyed, then thought: If I control the Light Sword to release that blood-red light ball at intervals, and then help the Light Sword suppress it, then the emitted energy can be absorbed and transformed by myself, wouldn't my soul power increase even faster?!
But now, what Qian Yuhan needs to do is consolidate his cultivation. This is something Qian Yuhan does every time he makes a breakthrough—steadily consolidating his cultivation so that he can go further in the future… Of course, this is the first lesson his father, Qian Mo, taught him!
……
Before I knew it, the holiday was over.
Students and teachers at the Spirit Hall Academy have gradually returned to school for classes.
Everyone was quite busy, because the theoretical exam was in two weeks, and the practical assessment was in another two weeks. The first-year theory teachers were busy preparing the exam papers, while the practical assessment teachers were busy planning the assessment, allocating venues, and randomly grouping students for the assessment and drawing lots to match opponents.
As for the students, they were naturally burying themselves in memorizing.
Qian Yuhan and Hu Lin'er have been studying together at the library for three or four days since they returned to school. From their first meeting after returning to school, Qian Yuhan could tell that Hu Lin'er was exhausted and had no energy at all.
Qian Yuhan walked to Hu Lin'er's side, patted her head, and asked, "Why did you exhaust yourself like this during the holiday? Don't you want to take a good rest?"
As Qian Yuhan patted her head, Hu Lin'er's cheeks instantly turned red. She shook her head and said, "No need. I didn't spend enough time with you during the holiday. Now I have to spend more time with my boyfriend."
Seeing Qian Yuhan's concerned gaze, Hu Lin'er's eyes welled up with tears, feeling as if they might fall at any moment.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
"No, it's nothing."
Hu Lin'er rubbed her eyes and turned her head away, not wanting Qian Yuhan to see her.
"By the way, I overheard Mi Chen and the others talking in the infirmary about your plans to start a business?"
Qian Yuhan was taken aback by Hu Lin'er's words and said, "Ah, yes, I'm planning to create a card and board game."
"Oh? Could you tell me more about it?"
Qian Yuhan teased, "Hahaha, sure, are you planning to invest in me, Miss Hu?"
Hu Lin'er smiled slightly: "That depends on whether it's worth it."
"It's definitely worth it, you're guaranteed to make a profit!"
Qian Yuhan glanced at the wall clock; it was already late. She said, "I'll tell you in detail another day when I have time. It's so late today, and I have a practical class tomorrow morning, so I need to get a good rest tonight."
Qian Yuhan reminded her. When Hu Lin'er heard that tomorrow morning was a practical class, and thought of Yu Ziyang's abnormal teaching style, she immediately got a jolt, quickly packed her things, and pulled Qian Yuhan to leave.
"Hey, slow down, hahaha..."
"No way. I don't want to be ruined by training tomorrow. The practical assessment will be coming up soon."
After leaving the library, the two walked side by side for a while before parting ways.
Qian Yuhan went straight to the dormitory, while Hu Lin'er paced back and forth outside, head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Hu Lin'er: I'm sorry, Yu Han, I... I had no other choice. I hope you can forgive me...
……
Qian Yuhan had retrieved the mailbox before going to the library to study and replied to all the letters today. Reading "Xue's" reply, she felt all the fatigue of the day disappear.
Because I've been so busy the past few days, I haven't had time to write back; I've just been reading "Snow's" letters. This time, looking at the clock, since it's already this late, I decided to just pick up a pen and paper and write a reply.
"Snow:
I'm so sorry, I've been too busy these past few days preparing for final exams. Also, the reason I didn't reply a few days ago was because I was on vacation and went home to rest, so I forgot to tell you. I'm so sorry. You're so magnanimous and forgiving, you definitely won't hold it against me, right?
I've been getting tutoring from Lin'er these past few days. She's doing much better than me in the theory classes, so I really need her help me catch up, otherwise I'll fail in the first semester.
Strangely enough, when she came back from school, she looked so exhausted, it was really heartbreaking, but she just smiled. Then she asked if I was planning to start a business, saying that Mu Chen had told her about it. "I told you before that I was planning to start a new type of card game business. This stuff requires investment. What do you think about asking Lin'er to invest for me?" But then I thought about it, and it seems like her family isn't very well-off right now. Would asking her to invest add to her burden?
Ugh, these past few days have been exhausting. I have a practical class tomorrow morning, so by the time you read this letter, I'll probably be getting brutally beaten by Yu Ziyang, hahaha—
Okay, I forgot to write back to you these past few days, not because I don't value our pen pal friendship, but because I've been incredibly busy. Seeing you seem so happy every day makes me very happy for you. You said you and your best friend had a fight, but oh well, it's nothing serious. A little argument is a sign of affection; how could best friends not have disagreements? It's precisely because of these little conflicts that your relationship is so good, isn't it? Timely communication and a heart-to-heart talk will resolve everything... I wish you a speedy recovery from what you call a "broken friendship"!! Best wishes!
