If someone could see clearly the scene where Starry Lin threw a punch at Shi Hui in a split second, they would be surprised to find that the girl's hand didn't actually touch Shi Hui's face.

"Bang!"

Shi Hui's head felt like it had collided with an incredibly solid transparent wall, and he was thrown back.

But in the eyes of the students watching, what they saw was Starry Lin throwing a beautifully executed punch, cleanly and neatly sending the aggressively approaching Shi Hui flying. With her straight long hair slightly swaying behind her, she had an indescribable heroic and cool demeanor.

Only Sunny Xu could see clearly what had happened in that instant.

In the moment when Starry Lin shouted loudly and prepared to take action, he had already guessed her intentions.

But Sunny still felt a bit reckless. He wasn't worried that Starry Lin would be at a disadvantage in the fight, but because... Little An's movements were just too loud.

The first time it officially appeared in front of him, it showed its destructive power by easily crashing into the warehouse door and wall. And the power it possessed now, even compared to what he had seen before, seemed to have grown, especially after devouring the bug monster that possessed Yan Mingjun.

Starry Lin probably noticed this too: the intensity of Little An's interference in the real world seemed to increase with the passage of summoning time and the irregular process of feeding.

Although there were still many mysteries about it, and its true appearance was like seeing flowers in the mist, Sunny Xu gradually agreed with Starry Lin's view: it was like the process of raising a pet.

In any case, with Little An's current size, if it appeared in the real world, it would definitely be a dominant presence in the animal kingdom. Even if others couldn't see the specific appearance of Little An, if it came crashing in and sent a group of people flying, shattering the railings, doors, and classroom windows on both sides of the corridor...

By then, everyone would realize that something was wrong with Starry Lin.

For her current situation, this was not a good thing. They had decided, after discussing it, to try not to display their superpowers in front of the crowd. So far, Little An was still a secret between friends.

Therefore, Sunny Xu was initially worried for a while. But in reality, Starry Lin didn't summon Little An.

In that instant, it seemed as if another world had descended around the girl, and an object like a black hole appeared. It looked like a hole had been broken in the real world, and a muddy flow of oil gushed out from the inside.

Sunny Xu quickly remembered the origin of this thing: it was the accompanying phenomenon that occurred every time Starry Lin summoned Little An, like the splashing water droplets when a boulder fell into the water, or the waves that rose on the sea.

If Little An was a creature from "another world," he guessed that the main flow splashing out from the black hole might be the material from that other world. Or perhaps it was the "residue" produced when the boundaries of the two worlds collided?

He was just an ordinary high school student. Even if his academic performance was good, it was impossible for him to figure out the composition of a completely new world. He could only rely on the fantasy stories he had read before to imagine.

But Starry Lin could control this unknown power as if it were her own. She could even control the muddy flow that leaked from the black hole, although it wasn't as ferocious and swift as when Little An attacked its prey. But in the eyes of ordinary people, it was still incredibly powerful--

For example, sending a human flying like a baseball.

Shi Hui, who had been punched, had a crooked mouth and a bloody face as he fell heavily to the ground.

The crowd hurriedly dodged backwards, and some even let out short screams.

Shi Hui, in a sorry state, lifted his head from the ground, his face filled with confusion, bewilderment, and fear.

He spat out a mouthful of blood to the side, and found two white teeth mixed in it. Shi Hui widened his eyes and turned his head to look at the long-haired girl standing not far away, as if he had seen an alien.

Starry Lin slowly retracted her fist. She stood in place, looking down at Shi Hui on the ground, her eyes cold, as if she was about to blow a breath on her fist.

And the expressions on the faces of the students who witnessed this scene were not much different from Shi Hui lying on the ground.

After all, for ordinary people, the fighting scenes they usually encounter and personally experience are basically just flailing punches, or girls pulling each other's hair. It's already considered quite exaggerated if they can use a stool or a beer bottle.

But to see a scene like just now, where a slender and slim girl dealt with a tall and big boy, and the situation was so one-sided that one side was actually sent flying with a punch, it was probably something that could only be seen in martial arts movies. If it weren't for the teeth that Shi Hui had been sent flying with and his bloody mouth, someone might suspect that they were acting.

And the person who created all this naturally became a hidden martial arts master in the eyes of the students watching. Starry Lin had already been regarded as a female school bully by her uninformed peers at No. 15 Middle School, and now this title was about to become a reality.The opinions of the onlookers are not mentioned for now. Although Shi Hui looks miserable, Lin Xingjie obviously has no intention of stopping. She took a step forward, but just then...

"Don't make a fuss, don't shout!"

A shout came from the other end of the corridor. A middle-aged man in a blue uniform, sweating profusely, hurriedly rushed over, shouting loudly at the students, trying to maintain order.

However, there was no need for him to say anything at this moment. In fact, everyone was quite quiet. Each and every one of them held their breath, their eyes fixed on Lin Xingjie as they eagerly anticipated what would happen next.

Shi Hui, lying on the ground, flickered his eyes. He didn't resist or surrender, but suddenly stood up and prepared to escape.

But unexpectedly, instead of pushing through the crowd to escape backwards, he pressed his hand against the nearby wall and leaped into the air, flipping over from the second floor. It was a resolute action that exceeded everyone's imagination.

"Hey... hey!"

The security guard shouted in a panic, but it was too late to stop him. The students gathered by the wall and looked down below. They saw Shi Hui land steadily like a monkey, then ran towards the school gate, flipping over the railing and disappearing onto the street.

Shi Hui's actions brought an end to this farce, but the excitement of the onlookers who had just witnessed the spectacle would not disappear so quickly.

What happened here would quickly spread throughout the entire campus. It was likely that everyone would discuss it throughout the day.

"Wow... he actually jumped down like that..."

"This is the second floor, right? I feel like if I jumped down, I would break my leg."

"This guy knows kung fu too?"

"Did we just witness two martial arts masters fighting?"

"No, no, wasn't Shi Hui knocked down by Lin Xingjie with a punch..."

Amidst the bustling crowd, only Zhu Qingyue calmly reported the situation.

At the same time, there were chaotic footsteps coming from the direction of the stairs. The adults were talking and walking towards the office or classrooms. It seemed that the teachers' meeting happened to end at this time.

"What happened?"

"Everyone disperse, quickly return to your classrooms for self-study!"

Compared to the security guard, the class teachers clearly had more authority. Everyone restrained their excited voices and discussed everything that had just happened as they returned to their classrooms.

Xu Xiangyang didn't move. He watched as Lin Xingjie walked towards him.

As she walked over, the students who passed by her looked at her with awe and curiosity in their eyes.

Lin Xingjie herself didn't feel anything. Perhaps she was used to being stared at with strange eyes. She wasn't interested in the opinions of irrelevant people and never cared about them.

On the other hand, Xu Xiangyang, who stood beside her, felt a bit uncomfortable. After all, he was also attracting attention now.

Although he ranked second in the grade, it was like the saying goes, "Everyone knows that Mount Everest is the highest peak in the world, but few people know where the second highest peak is." Xu Xiangyang neither had the outstanding appearance of these two girls nor the attention-grabbing behavior of those campus hooligans. So in the past, he only stood out in Class 2-1, but from now on...

"It's my first time using it, so I couldn't control the force. Fortunately, I don't think I revealed anything."

Lin Xingjie stood at a distance where only the two of them could hear each other's conversation and whispered.

"No, you didn't."

Xu Xiangyang shook his head, shaking off the chaotic thoughts from his mind.

"But he still managed to escape."

"Without revealing Little An's situation, I can't jump down like he did."

"People like him are hopeless. You should have kicked him hard below, so he wouldn't be able to do bad things in the future."

Lin Xingjie paused for a moment, nodding thoughtfully.

"...I understand."

At this moment, both of them could already be sure that Shi Hui's behavior was different from that of Wang Nana and Yan Mingjun. Although he was possessed by a demon, he still retained his intellect. But...

"This doesn't mean he's normal. You saw it, his recent behavior is different from before. It feels like..."

"Like he's gone crazy. Although he used to cause trouble and bully others, he wasn't as reckless as he was today," Lin Xingjie said, "Also, I think there may have been some kind of... 'change' in his body."

As she spoke, she made a jumping gesture with her fingers.

Indeed, Shi Hui's action of choosing to jump off the building was quite frightening, although it couldn't be ruled out that some professionally trained individuals could do the same thing.

"Also, I observed that he seems to be able to see the phenomena caused by you, just like us. Of course, I can't be sure without asking him personally."

Perhaps anyone who managed to escape from that haunted house would have some kind of peculiarities.

"So he chose to escape because of that?"

Lin Xingjie wanted to continue speaking, but Xu Xiangyang spoke in a low voice."Wait, someone seems to be coming over."

The two of them lifted their heads, watching as the class monitor of Class 5, Seigetsu Zhu, left the teacher's side and briskly walked towards them, only stopping when she reached them.

Seigetsu Zhu glanced at Sunny Xu, who wore a puzzled expression, then at Starry Lin, whose face was expressionless but whose eyes held a hint of wariness. A gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Good morning to you both."
