Fu Lin looked at Kiana and asked with a smile, "Want to keep going?"
Kiana nodded without hesitation and replied, "Of course!"
With that, she raised her dual pistols again and launched another attack on Fu Lin.
Fu Shi, sitting on a nearby chair, watched the heated battle curiously and asked Fu Hua in confusion, "Old antique, why does Kiana insist on close combat when she's holding guns?"
Fu Hua shook her head and, recalling previous training sessions with Kiana, said, "She seems to enjoy smashing people with her guns..."
---------------------------------
As Fu Hua's voice fell, Kiana threw her gun forward. The pistol spun as it flew toward Fu Lin, firing countless bullets along the way.
Seeing this, Fu Lin swiftly dodged, moving agilely through the dense barrage of bullets, easily evading Kiana's shots.
After slipping through the fierce firepower, Fu Lin reached out and grabbed the gun. Looking at Kiana with amusement, he said, "Alright, now there's only one left. What will you do next?"
Kiana stopped her attack, staring at Fu Lin's calm demeanor with wide eyes, and exclaimed in surprise, "Damn it! He actually dodged the Kaslana family's secret technique so easily!"
Fu Lin scratched his head and said speechlessly, "Don't tell me that was the Kaslana family's gun-fighting technique? It just looked like throwing a gun to me…"
However, Kiana didn't give him the chance to keep complaining. She quickly regained her stance, summoned the Voids, and pulled out a Subspace Spear to launch another fierce attack.
Kiana brandished the Subspace Spear in her hand and charged at Fu Lin with a sharp, aggressive aura.
Fu Lin sidestepped to avoid the attack and, looking at the serious Kiana, couldn't help but sigh, "Kiana, you're really full of energy! But…"
Before he finished speaking, Fu Lin instantly appeared behind Kiana and kicked her on the butt. "Waaahhh!"
Kiana screamed, stumbled forward a few steps, and then Fu Lin gave her a gentle push, causing her to fall to the ground.
"Hehe, want to go again?"
Looking at Kiana lying on the ground with her butt raised, Fu Lin grinned smugly.
Kiana turned her head angrily, glaring at Fu Lin, then got up from the ground, rubbing her butt, and said, "Hmph! Do you dare face me head-on? The class monitor would never dodge around like you!"
"Alright, then let's have a proper, fair duel!"
Fu Lin replied with a smile, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He assumed a starting stance and shouted, "Above!"
Kiana instinctively raised her arms to guard her face, leaving her unprotected stomach to receive a gentle tap.
Fu Lin smiled with excitement in his eyes, took the stance again, then vanished from view.
"Above you."
Kiana looked around, and upon hearing Fu Lin's voice behind her, instinctively looked up—only to realize she had been tricked.
Realizing she had been fooled, Kiana quickly jumped away, but it was too late. Fu Lin had already appeared behind her and grabbed her waist with both hands.
Fu Lin began tickling her relentlessly, causing Kiana to burst out laughing. Then Fu Lin said, "Caught by me? Now you're in for it~"
"Ahahaha~ Let me go! This isn't training at all!"
Kiana struggled, trying to break free from Fu Lin's grip, but her whole body was so ticklish she had no strength and couldn't escape.
At that moment, the training room door opened, and a voice suddenly called out, "What are you two doing?"
Fu Lin and Kiana turned their heads at the same time and saw Mei☆ standing at the door, holding a katana, looking at them kindly.
"Mei☆! Save me!"
Kiana, like she had found a savior, immediately called out to Mei☆ for help.
Sensing Mei☆'s gaze, Fu Lin quickly withdrew his hands, stepped away from Kiana, and explained, "Nothing, we were just training."
"Oh... looks like I misunderstood."
Mei☆ smiled and nodded, then put away her weapon, took out a peach, and handed it to Fu Lin, saying, "That must've been tiring. Here, have this."
"Thanks."
Fu Lin took the peach and took a bite, then said to Kiana, "Want to keep going?"
Kiana watched Fu Lin eating, bit her back teeth in frustration, turned to Mei, and said sweetly, "Of course, but wait a second—Mei~, I want a peach too!"
Mei popped out from behind Mei☆, smiled, and replied, then took out an apple and handed it to Kiana, saying, "Kiana, I don't have a peach, is an apple okay?"
Kiana accepted the apple happily, munching as she curiously asked,
"As long as it's from Mei, I love it! By the way, Fu Lin, you're really strong. Are you still holding back your full power?"
Fu Lin humbly said, "It's alright. However strong the old antique is, that's how strong I am!"
Kiana scratched her head in confusion, then looked through the glass at Fu Hua, who seemed to be coaxing Fu Shi outside, and asked with a puzzled look, "Even though the class monitor is the legendary Celestial Immortal from Shenzhou, she was almost killed by another consciousness inside her during a previous livestream. She didn't seem that strong."
"Ah, speaking of livestreams, I wonder when the next one will be."
"That's because the old antique has been in a state of serious injury all this time, that's why. Today, I'll let you witness the true strength of that old antique!"
Hearing this, Fu Lin gave Kiana a surprised glance and began explaining, while muttering to himself, ' You think I don't want to be on time? There were unexpected issues, alright. '
Still, it had been a while since the last livestream. If Kiana hadn't reminded him, he might've forgotten again.
Thinking of this, Fu Lin decided that once this matter was settled, he'd start the livestream right away. But before that, he needed to deal with the current situation.
Meanwhile, Kiana looked excited, her eyes glowing as she stared intently at Fu Lin, shouting eagerly,
"Alright, let me see just how strong the class monitor used to be!"
As Kiana finished speaking, the temperature in the training room began to rise. Flames appeared on Fu Lin's clothing, and his gray-blue hair gradually turned into a mix of white and red.
Outside the training room, Fu Hua instinctively stood up, staring at Fu Lin in shock, murmuring,
"This is…"
As the flames completely engulfed Fu Lin, Kiana had already fled the overheated training room and was now watching from outside with the others.
"Is Fu Lin self-combusting?"
Kiana's remark instantly left everyone speechless, dissipating the previously tense atmosphere.
Fu Hua sighed helplessly, then looked at Fu Lin's current form. With light gleaming in her eyes, she said, "Kiana, if I'm not mistaken, Fu Lin is entering Phoenix mode. That's a state even I couldn't master. He's stronger than I ever was… at any point in time."
