“Thanks.”

Ye Mingqiu directly took the two cups, then handed one to Tang Ruobing. The latter showed no change in expression, just took a sip and said softly, “The taste is indeed not bad.”

Ma Xiaowen watched their natural interaction and instantly realized their relationship was not simple. Lin Luofeng’s plan would likely be difficult to carry out.

Still, she smiled and said, “I’m also a Support System student. Can you teach me how to level up as quickly as possible? I’m about to die of worry because my level just won’t go up!”

“First, use a Team Formation Card to establish an exclusive team, then challenge unlimited difficulty alone and kill all the monsters. This way, you can get up to 120% upgrade experience, and going through a Spirit Realm exploration once would level you up more than a level,” Ye Mingqiu answered based on personal experience.

“….”

Ma Xiaowen’s smile froze, feeling a bit like cursing. A Team Formation Card, could she even get her hands on something like that? Solo challenging unlimited difficulty, might as well ask her to commit suicide.

Is he just trying to mess with me?

Thinking of this, her mindset changed slightly, but for the sake of the plan, she quickly regained her composure, then forced a laugh and said, “Hahaha, you’re so humorous, how could I possibly do that? It’s better for you to use such a method of improvement.”

“Yeah, using it, and the effect is very good.”

Ye Mingqiu nodded in response.

“….”

Ma Xiaowen fell silent again. Although Ye Mingqiu seemed to be telling the truth on the surface, what he said was more and more outrageous. It couldn’t possibly be true. He could speak such words with such calm sincerity; this guy wasn’t simple.

She briefly collected herself and asked, “Oh, by the way, I heard you took down all five of the opponents in the last match. Is that true?”

“True.”

“But aren’t you a Support System? Why do you have such strong combat power?”

“I’m in the Support System because my profession has Support Ability, which is a profession trait. Having combat power to solve opponents is my strength, there’s no conflict between the two.”

Ye Mingqiu paused slightly, continuing, “Spiritualists become stronger during the Spirit Realm exploration settlement, and the abilities they possess increase. When resources overflow, slightly increasing some output power is also a good choice.”

“Ahaha…”

Ma Xiaowen forced a laugh. What Ye Mingqiu said sounded almost heretical for the Support System.

This isn’t proper communication!

Beside them, Tang Ruobing, who was sipping Star Dew Fruit Tea, secretly smiled but quickly returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

Ma Xiaowen took a deep breath, calming herself down, and said, “Well, I’m an exchange student from First Middle School, so I’m not very familiar with the environment at Second Middle School. Could you show me around outside a bit?”

At this moment, her tone wasn’t enthusiastic, more like an NPC wanting to finish the dialogue so they can clock out.

“Sorry, after eating, I need to review magic theory basics with her. Practicing magic techniques daily is very important,” Ye Mingqiu replied.

“Magic techniques?”

Ma Xiaowen frowned.

“Yes, being a Support System Spiritual System, it’s normal to know a bit of magic, right?” Ye Mingqiu answered matter-of-factly.

Ma Xiaowen was completely speechless, smiled helplessly, then ran to the seafood table to continue eating. Not being able to take them away wasn’t her fault, it was just that the other party was too hard to deal with.

Staying here was just wasting time, better to indulge and eat more good food. Once the job is done, who cares about the result, I’m just here to eat!

As Ma Xiaowen left, Lin Luofeng’s expression gradually darkened.

The relationship between these two was very good; trying to separate them through others wouldn’t work. Now, he had no choice but to confront them directly.

“Hoo~”

Lin Luofeng drank half a cup of fruit tea in one gulp and took large strides forward, instantly putting on a familiar and nostalgic smile, looking at Tang Ruobing and saying with a smile, “Ruobing, long time no see. How are things at home recently? I remember…”

“I’m not that close to you.”

Tang Ruobing interrupted, her voice cold and her eyes filled with icy intent, continuing, “If you dare to use such intimate address in public again, I will consider it a provocation… you should know the consequences.”

“…”

Lin Luofeng’s expression changed dramatically.

Her attitude was more aggressive and emotional than he imagined; such an answer was unlike a rational Mage.

Is that guy so important to you that you can ignore family ties?

He knew there were transactions between their families, and he was bound to become the head of the Lin Family. Offending him now would later disadvantage her family in commercial trades.

Unless…

He can offer you greater benefits!

Compared to emotions, Lin Luofeng believed more in the power of benefits. As a Mage, he was rational but perhaps too rational, always disdainful of emotions, only trusting in the linkage of benefits.

More importantly, Tang Ruobing was also a top Mage, full of wisdom.

In his view, the more wisdom one possesses, the less they should be led by emotions. Lin Luofeng thought he and Tang Ruobing were the same kind of people, only people like them could reach such high levels in the field of magic.

Clearly, we are the same….
