However, the rich Spirit World coexisted with opportunities and dangers. Without the strength of an Awakened, it was almost impossible to move around in the Spirit World. Bai Xiaowen's father, Bai Yuantang, and sister, Bai Xiaohua, disappeared in the Spirit World. Originally, Bai Xiaowen had been training hard in the combat class so that he could become an Awakened and enter the Spirit World to search for their whereabouts.

While the siblings were talking, the door was suddenly violently pushed open with a bang.

Both of them looked over at the same time and saw a muscular boy barge in. Seeing Bai Xiaowen lying on the bed, the boy grinned and said in a strange tone, "Bai Xiaowen, you're still alive. You're really lucky."

"Zhou Yi?"

Bai Xiaowen's face darkened. He recognized this boy. He was the main culprit, Zhou Yi!

Zhou Yi waved his hand, "Don't look so bad, I'm here to sincerely greet you …" His tone gradually became gloomy and cold, "After this lesson, I believe you've already recognized your position. In the future, stay away from Li Shuyi! Otherwise, next time, it won't be as simple as lying in bed for three days. "

Li Shuyi was the school beauty and top student of Crimson Fire High School. She was the goddess of countless boys' dreams.

After being stunned for a moment, Xiaojun suddenly jumped up and rushed forward. She pushed Zhou Yi hard and screamed, "Get out, get out!"

However, compared to Zhou Yi's strong muscles, Xiaojun's push was too weak.

Zhou Yi didn't move at all. He crossed his arms and leaned against the door. He looked at Bai Xiaowen. "Your sister is quite good-looking. In a few years, her face might not lose to Li Shuyi's. However, she can't compare in other aspects. Li Shuyi can be the young mistress of the Zhou family, but your sister can only be a servant girl … "

Slap!

Xiaojun raised her hand and slapped Zhou Yi.

This slap was nothing more than a tickle to Zhou Yi, but his face was damaged. Zhou Yi's eyes suddenly turned vicious. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and pushed Xiaojun away like a pebble. Her footsteps were light and she stumbled a few steps back.

Zhou Yi was too arrogant and thought that Xiaojun was no threat. He kept crossing his arms and mocking Bai Xiaowen. That was why Xiaojun slapped him. Otherwise, with his strength, Xiaojun wouldn't have stood a chance.

Bai Xiaowen was shocked and angry. He jumped up to support Xiaojun and shouted, "Zhou Yi! What do you want? "

Behind Zhou Yi, a girl with long hair whispered, "Zhou Yi, don't go overboard. This is a hospital."

"Don't poke your nose into my business," Zhou Yi said without turning his head. From the side of her face, it could be seen that the girl with long hair was pale and embarrassed.

"Sister Xiaoyan?" Only then did Xiaojun notice the girl's side profile. Her eyes widened. "Why are you with this bastard?"

Bai Xiaowen also recognized the girl.

Wu Xiaoyan and Bai Xiaowen grew up in the same neighborhood. They could be considered childhood sweethearts. Before junior high school, Wu Xiaoyan had always considered herself Bai Xiaowen's girlfriend. She also became close to Xiaojun. However, after entering senior high school, Wu Xiaoyan quickly became realistic as she grew older. They soon drifted apart.

If it was the original Bai Xiaowen, seeing Wu Xiaoyan in Zhou Yi's arms, he definitely wouldn't feel good. However, the current Bai Xiaowen was the fusion of two souls. His feelings for Wu Xiaoyan had faded. He only glanced at Wu Xiaoyan before his gaze returned to Zhou Yi's face. His thoughts flashed quickly as he said slowly,

"Zhou Yi, do you dare to make a move here?"

Zhou Yi looked a little surprised. He narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean? Do you think I don't dare? "

Bai Xiaowen's thoughts were very clear. He spoke slowly and calmly.

He said calmly, "In the combat class, you dared to kill because there was a death quota. As long as you said that you made a mistake, the school wouldn't punish you. However, this is the hospital. Don't you dare touch me! Before tomorrow, the school will spread the news that Zhou Yi failed to kill his classmate and deliberately rushed to the hospital to do it again … "

The surprise on Zhou Yi's face deepened. It was as if he was getting to know Bai Xiaowen again. He looked at him from head to toe. Was this still the introverted and self-abased Bai Xiaowen?

However, Bai Xiaowen was telling the truth. Zhou Yi wouldn't make a move in the hospital.

On the one hand, a person who deliberately killed a classmate would inevitably be ostracized by his classmates. Imagine that in another time and space, the double-hammer assassin Ma Fenghou and the poisoning master's student Wu Muhao. Even if they didn't get shot, they would definitely be isolated by others if they continued to stay in school. Zhou Yi could say that the accident in the combat class was a mistake. However, if he hit Bai Xiaowen in the hospital, he definitely wouldn't be able to justify it. Even the conclusion of the accident in the combat class would be overturned by the school and they would investigate again.

On the other hand, the death quota was for normal training. The school would never tolerate private fights that led to disability or even death. Even if Zhou Yi's family was rich, a major demerit was inevitable. It would be a stain on his record for the rest of his life.

There were only a few months left until the college entrance examination. Zhou Yi certainly didn't want to ruin his future for a moment of happiness.

"I didn't expect this, Bai Xiaowen!" Zhou Yi sneered. "You've become a lot bolder. Indeed, I don't need to take this risk and ruin my future for a small character like you. I'm going to become an awakened one and participate in the Super Cup. You're just an ant destined to suffer at the bottom of society. I'll let you go today, but don't let me find another chance. "

Bai Xiaowen suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Zhou Yi coldly. He secretly swore that one day, he would take revenge tenfold or a hundredfold.

Suddenly, a faint female voice came from the corridor not far away.
