"This is not something you need to worry about. Even if I quit college, I will find a way to get money."
Originally, Yang Hu wanted to tell Yang Mingxue not to worry.
Now, with the system, passing the renewal test was the least of his problems.
However, at the moment, he had nothing that could prove this, and even if he said many things, he knew his sister would probably think he was just trying to comfort her.
"Brother..." Yang Mingxue became even more emotional when she saw him like this.
Her eyes instantly filled with tears.
What her brother had done for her — and continued to do — was a debt she could never repay in her entire life.
Thinking about the past...
When Yang Hu was her age, he had already become an early-stage warrior at 17 years old.
His future was bright, practically limitless, if not for what happened three years ago.
At that time, a huge beast tide broke out and invaded the city.
In the middle of the chaos, her brother risked his own life and went to the school to rescue her.
Fortunately, in the end, he managed to save her, but the price was very high.
Fighting against so many beasts at the same time had inevitable consequences: he completely lost the movement of his legs.
That was the reason why she felt so guilty toward him.
Both of them became orphans very early, and it was Yang Hu who practically raised her.
Because of that, she always felt that she owed him a lot — and wanted, at least once, to help him in some way.
Her brother had already sacrificed too much for her.
Practically all of the three years of benefits he received were used to support her and buy resources for her, while he, with determination, entered university to try to move forward.
That was what Yang Mingxue admired most about him.
No matter what happened, even being crippled, being the target of everyone's jokes, Yang Hu never gave up. He always did his best to make sure she had everything good and the best.
And now, he was even willing to quit university just so she could finish her studies. Yang Mingxue could not accept that.
But, seeing her brother's firm look, she did not dare to disobey. She silently picked up her backpack and was about to leave.
"If I'm not mistaken, today is the day the school distributes cultivation resources, right? Xiaoxue, are you confident about advancing?" Yang Hu asked when she was about to go out.
Yang Mingxue hesitated for a moment before turning her head. Her expression became a little stiff.
"Ah... I think I can!"
Yang Hu frowned.
It had been almost more than two months since she became an 8-star martial apprentice.
With his sister's talent, it was natural for her cultivation to progress without difficulty. Could something have happened?
Worry grew in his mind, and a thought appeared. His face darkened, and he immediately shouted:
"Xiaoxue, don't tell me you're planning not to use the resources!"
These words made Yang Mingxue feel completely exposed. Her brother knew her far too well.
Now that they were having financial problems, she really had thought about keeping the resources and selling them to help at home.
After all, the five Blood Baptism Liquids she received every month were worth 15,000 yuan!
Even if she had to sell them cheaper, at the very least she could get 10,000 yuan.
Anyway, she was already an 8-star martial apprentice. Even if she did not advance anymore until the end, she would not be expelled.
Seeing her sister's guilty expression, Yang Hu understood everything right away. His tone became stern.
"Yang Mingxue, you'd better use those resources and advance today. Otherwise, see if I don't make your butt bloom!"
Hearing the threat, Yang Mingxue could not help but lower her head.
Instinctively, she placed her hands over her backside and ran out of the house toward school.
However, as soon as she closed the door, she stopped for a moment.
Turning back, she looked at the house with determination.
"Don't worry, brother. I will work hard to become a warrior and repay everything you've done for me."
***
On the other side, after Yang Mingxue left, Yang Hu turned his gaze to the translucent panel that had been there the whole time, visible only to him.
[Host: Yang Hu]
[Cultivation: Early-Stage Warrior]
[Skill: Nineteen Ascending Strikes (Perfection), Basic Sword Technique (Mastery)...]
(Proficiency Levels: Discovery, First Success, Improvement, Mastery, Perfection)
[Bound Target: Yang Mingxue (8-Star Martial Apprentice)]
Yang Hu was not surprised at all to see this information.
This was the panel from his system, which he had awakened a few days ago.
Supreme Summoning System.
The system's function was really very simple: he needed to bind a target, and every time that target advanced, he would gain a summoning card.
When he discovered this, Yang Hu's first thought was to bind himself.
But unfortunately, that was not possible.
So he immediately bound his younger sister. After all, he had already read novels and knew what a system was.
When someone awakens a system, it is undeniable that this person is destined to soar.
So, he naturally thought: since his system depended on a target, why not choose his younger sister to soar together with him?
After all, it was obvious that in the future, if he wanted to receive more rewards, he would need to help the target advance.
If he chose a random person, even if it were the most talented in the city, it would not make sense to start giving resources out of nowhere to a stranger, right?
That would create suspicion.
So, why not simply help his younger sister? Besides, her talent was promising, not inferior to his at all.
Moreover, his sister was still only an 8-star Martial Apprentice, which meant she had many realms ahead to advance through.
This could generate even more rewards!
The realms of martial artists were divided as follows: Martial Apprentice, Warrior, Master, Grandmaster, Martial King, Martial Sovereign… and the legendary Martial Saint.
Except for Martial Apprentice, which is divided from one to nine stars, all other realms are divided into early, middle, advanced, and peak stages.
