I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

Miao Miao hummed in agreement, “That’s what I was thinking. After all, the Dragon Cult worships the ‘Infinity Dragon,’ and creatures like dragons and snakes would be restrained by the ‘Serpent Slayer Spearhead’… It’s normal for Mr. An to have such a reaction if he gained some power from the main cult.”

It turned off the tap, dried its now-clean paws with the small towel hanging beside it, which was designated for its use, came out of the bathroom, and jumped onto the dining table.

“Why don’t you change back into human form? It’s so inconvenient to eat like this.”

Xue Jing picked up his bowl and took a bite, puzzled.

Miao Miao snagged a piece of braised pork with its claw, chewed it in its mouth, and mumbled:

“Nodding Yu Hu (too lazy to get dressed)…”

Xue Jing said indifferently, “Then don’t wear anything. It’s not like I haven’t seen it before.”

Miao Miao rolled its eyes at him, “Our relationship is a healthy and pure one between a pet and its master. It’s important to make a clear distinction from those unavoidable situations, or else what would I become?”

Xue Jing took another mouthful of rice and thought: When a woman shamelessly claims to be a pet outright, that’s far from healthy and pure…

However, he didn’t argue and just chuckled, “Fine, as long as you’re happy.”

…

The next day.

After getting up, Xue Jing finished his morning routine, went out for his usual one-hour jog, had breakfast, but didn’t head to Zhu Shanying’s home for Martial Arts Practice.

Instead, he slung his backpack over his shoulder and, quite unusually, planned a trip to school.

Taking the bus, Xue Jing calculated in his mind that it seemed he hadn’t gone to school since he killed that Cockroach Monster during the last sports meeting.

The homeroom teacher Du Shiwei used to call him about his academic issues, but he stopped urging him after the day of the sports meeting, letting him do as he pleased, and granting leave readily.

When he walked into the classroom with his backpack slung over one shoulder, Li Ge was the first to spot him.

“Holy shit, Lord Jing!”

He exclaimed in surprise.

The students of the Elite Class turned their heads towards the door one after another, followed by a continuous stream of astonished exclamations.

“Holy crap, Xue Jing, you actually came to school?”

“Some second years rumored you had already passed the ‘martial arts exam’ and went ahead to Inner Ring University. If you didn’t come to school I might have almost believed it!”

“Why is our Qingcheng Affiliated Middle School’s savior only showing up now? I couldn’t even find a chance to thank you…”

“Are you free after school tonight? We classmates all want to treat you to a meal, don’t refuse!”

The students of the Elite Class crowded around, buzzing with excitement and speaking at once.

For anyone else, their head might spin, but Xue Jing was smiling and replying to each one, making nearly everyone feel acknowledged.

With the confidence boosted by his improved martial might, and his brainpower augmented by his Skills, he was more than adept at handling such situations.

It wasn’t until Xue Jing agreed to have dinner with them in the evening that the crowd gradually dispersed.

Afterward, he and Li Ge chatted alone for a while, sharing many words until the class bell rang.

Having barely managed to get through the mathematics class, Xue Jing realized he couldn’t keep up with the pace anymore, so he slipped away after class and headed straight to the Qing University Library.

This was his main purpose for coming to school today; visiting the class was just a side trip.

He swiped his library card and went directly to the seventh floor.

In the old attic, the same quiet girl was still sitting in a wooden chair, holding a scroll, serenely beautiful as a picture.

Xue Jing couldn’t help but remark, “BOSS, every time I see you, it feels like you’ve been sitting here for thousands of years without moving…”

Wu Youqing’s hand, turning the pages of the book, paused slightly, then casually said, “Are you implying that I look old?”

Xue Jing smiled and replied, “Someone like you must have a very clear awareness of your own appearance… you can’t fool me.”

Wu Youqing closed the book in her hands with a snap.

“You understand me quite well… but you don’t understand women at all,” she said

She stood up, approached Xue Jing, and lightly tapped his head with the book she was holding in her hand.

“Even if it’s clear that it’s not the truth, women will still be upset by unpleasant words.”

Xue Jing glanced at the cover of the book.

“Existence beyond ‘Strings’ – The Relationship between Rank and Dimension.”

“I’ve already arranged your U19 competition for you. From now on, you are a signed martial artist for ‘Galaxy Martial Arts Club,’ and you’ll represent the club as a seeded contestant in the Maple City elimination round.”

Wu Youqing stood with her arms crossed, subtly thrusting her chest forward and speaking with a gentle tone.

“Galaxy Martial Arts Club?” Xue Jing asked with a puzzled look.

“It’s one of my family’s businesses… Don’t worry, the contract I signed for you is very flexible. You can compete if you want to, without any binding clauses,” Wu Youqing explained. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“You’ll go to Maple City in a few days, and I’ll have someone arranged there to be your exclusive manager. Leave everything to the manager, you just focus on the competition,” she continued.

Xue Jing nodded.

He then said, “You arrange the competition, BOSS, but I came to see you today for another reason…”

Xue Jing detailed to her the task White Crow had entrusted him to investigate the Intersecting Boundaries, and that he would be rewarded with the GOD-508 for doing so.

“Hundred Feet Pole’s Top…”

Wu Youqing’s amethyst-like eyes flickered slightly.

“I see…” she nodded, hummed a response, and said:

“I recommend you take on this commission.”

At that, Xue Jing raised his eyebrows, “Please elaborate.”

“The [Hundred Feet Pole’s Top] will be very useful for you now,” Wu Youqing sat back down on the wooden chair, her posture upright. Her rear, tightly clothed in light blue skinny jeans, tensed up, stark against her slender waist, revealing a full and curvaceous figure that was captivating.
