Chapter 37 Shui Bing'er, with her powerful mental strength, inquires
Seeing his granddaughter lose, Dugu Bo's expression turned slightly unpleasant. He felt sorry that Dugu Yan had failed to leave a good first impression on Qin Mu.
Ling Yuan, who was standing to the side, was completely puzzled and couldn't help but lean close to Qin Mu's ear and ask.
"Little Qin Mu, how did you know Dugu Yan was going to lose?"
"Sister Ling Yuan, didn't you notice a very familiar spiritual fluctuation emanating from Shui Bing'er just now?"
"Um?"
Hearing Qin Mu say this, Ling Yuan also began to recall Shui Bing'er's actions just now, and indeed she sensed an invisible fluctuation emanating from Shui Bing'er.
This fluctuation was extremely similar to the spiritual fluctuations that Qin Mu had emitted earlier.
If it weren't for Ling Yuan's Title Douluo's keen observation skills, it would probably have been overlooked with the slightest oversight.
"Actually, I wasn't entirely confident that Shui Bing'er would win; it was just that I sensed a spiritual fluctuation emanating from her for a brief moment."
"This spiritual fluctuation is actually a case of spiritual energy not being fully controlled and overflowing."
"If you can control your spiritual energy well, you should have been able to sense it the moment she released it."
Ling Yuan pouted helplessly.
In terms of sheer spiritual power, Qin Mu couldn't even be counted among a hundred people in the Spirit Hall.
But when it comes to controlling spiritual power, who can compare to Qin Mu, who possessed the intent of the Clear Sky Hammer at the age of six?
"I can sense that Shui Bing'er also incorporated spiritual power when using her third soul skill, increasing its power so that it was enough to completely deflect Dugu Yan's poison."
"In the moment when Dugu Yan panicked, Shui Bing'er froze Dugu Yan in place, which led to Dugu Yan's defeat."
"I just didn't expect that Shui Bing'er could achieve this at such a young age... It's not surprising that Dugu Yan lost to her."
Dugu Bo, who had been listening to Qin Mu's explanation the whole time, looked at him with a strange expression.
If you didn't know beforehand, it would be hard to imagine that such mature words came from the mouth of a twelve-year-old child.
Shui Bing'er is indeed very talented to have achieved this, but she is also three years older than Qin Mu!
Moreover, Qin Mu's control over spiritual power is far superior to Shui Bing'er's.
As they were talking, the exchange match ended, and the surrounding students began to leave the arena one after another.
"Let's go see Dugu Yan first."
Qin Mu stood up, and turning to Dugu Bo, he didn't forget to remind him, "Don't be so reserved. Just act the same way you usually do with Dugu Yan."
Following the spectator seating to the rest area on the field, Dugu Yan was still immersed in the defeat she had just suffered.
"How is that possible? How did she win?!"
Dugu Yan chased away her other classmates and stayed alone in the rest area, unwilling to accept the outcome.
"Yan Yan!"
At this moment, three figures arrived at the rest area at the same time. Dugu Yan turned her head and fixed her gaze on Dugu Bo, who was at the front.
"grandfather!"
Dugu Yan cried out in surprise, tears streaming down her face.
This was the first time Dugu Yan had ever faced defeat among her peers since she was a child.
Prior to this, Dugu Yan had never lost a single match in one-on-one duels, thanks to the power of her Jade Phosphor Serpent Venom.
Seeing Dugu Yan's aggrieved look, Dugu Bo felt heartbroken and immediately hugged her to comfort her.
"This failure may not be a bad thing. At least it has made you realize your own limitations, hasn't it?"
Qin Mu's words echoed in the lounge, causing Dugu Yan, who was nestled in Dugu Bo's arms, to suddenly look up and glare at Qin Mu with a fierce expression.
"Who are you? Who let you in?!"
Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Dugu Yan was about to vent her anger over losing the match on Qin Mu when Dugu Bo stopped her.
"Yanyan, don't be rude! They are both mine..."
Dugu Bo paused slightly, and only continued speaking after seeing Qin Mu nod slightly.
"They are my friends, Qin Mu and Ling Yuan."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Qin Mu.
She knew her grandfather's temperament very well; he had practically no friends.
The sudden appearance of two friends was already quite shocking to Dugu Yan.
Looking at Qin Mu and Ling Yuan in front of her, Dugu Yan could sense Ling Yuan's strength. She could accept that Ling Yuan was Dugu Bo's friend.
But Qin Mu was clearly a boy even younger than herself. If there was any difference, it was that his strength was almost the same as her own.
But Dugu Yan simply didn't believe that this alone was enough to make her friends with Dugu Bo!
"Grandpa, when did you have friends like this? How come I didn't know?"
"Old Poisoner, why don't you stay here and chat with your granddaughter for a while? I still have some things to ask Shui Bing'er."
Qin Mu was too lazy to argue with Dugu Yan. After saying something to Dugu Bo, he turned around and left the lounge with Ling Yuan.
After giving Dugu Yan a brief explanation, Dugu Bo pulled her along and followed behind Qin Mu, eventually finding Shui Bing'er together.
Upon seeing Qin Mu and his group, Shui Bing'er's smile faded slightly, and she gave Dugu Yan a meaningful look.
"It's normal to win and lose in a competition, isn't it? Why call in the elders from your family to cause trouble?"
The leader of Tianshui Academy was a Soul Emperor with six rings, and also a beautiful woman with remarkable looks.
Upon seeing Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, her expression instantly darkened, and the other students also showed signs of discontent.
Clearly, they all assumed that Dugu Yan was a sore loser, which is why she brought Dugu Bo over.
"You must have misunderstood. We meant no harm; we just wanted to talk to Senior Sister Shui Bing'er about some cultivation matters."
Seeing this, everyone from Tianshui Academy turned their attention to Shui Bing'er, and a female classmate even took the opportunity to brush against her.
"See? I told you Bing'er is so lovable no matter where she is!"
Shui Bing'er gave the female student a coquettish glare, then walked up to Qin Mu.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"May I speak to you in private?"
Shui Bing'er smiled calmly, then followed Qin Mu to the outside of the arena.
She was naturally not afraid of Qin Mu doing anything underhanded, after all, Poison Douluo was right beside them, and if he really had any malicious intent, dealing with them would be as easy as lifting a finger.
"Senior Bing'er, how about we make a deal?"
"What kind of transaction are you referring to?"
"I can teach you how to better control your spiritual power, but you need to tell me how you cultivated your spiritual power to this level."
Qin Mu looked at Shui Bing'er with a slightly serious expression.
It should be noted that Qin Mu knew the importance of spiritual strength from a young age, which is why he started cultivating it from childhood.
Even so, the spiritual strength that Shui Bing'er just displayed was stronger than that of Qin Mu, who had not consumed the Star Anise Ice Grass!
This can only mean that Shui Bing'er has a method to greatly increase spiritual strength!
