Zhao Qinghan was tall and wore a white dress that hugged her waist and stopped just above her knees tonight, showing off her beautiful figure with curves and long legs.

As the night wind blew, it lifted a strand of her black and smooth hair. Her white and delicate face was once beautiful and sweet, but now her smile froze.

The scene was quiet, and everyone was motionless.

Zhao Qinghan's white dress made even a woman who was used to such occasions and had a high emotional intelligence like her fall into a momentary silence. It was evident how unusual the atmosphere was.

Wang Xuan turned around and stood opposite her.

The maple trees on the mountain were fiery red, and the scenery was beautiful. The dazzling lights of the city below the mountain were like a painting, creating a peaceful beauty for the people present.

Wang Xuan never expected Zhao Qinghan to suddenly appear.

The main reason was Qing Cheng's interruption, which caused a sudden change in the atmosphere.

"You're late, so you have to drink a cup as a punishment." Wang Xuan spoke calmly.

No one expected him to be so calm and not hesitate at all. He raised his wine glass and smiled at Zhao Qinghan in front of him.

Although Zhao Qinghan was usually calm and confident and often attended various events, she was slightly stiff just now.

She instinctively wanted to raise her wine glass, but soon she calmed down.

Halfway through raising her glass, she smiled again, but she didn't speak or clink glasses with Wang Xuan. She wanted to see his reaction and how quick and clever he could be.

At this moment, Qing Cheng spoke, "Qinghan, don't get me wrong. Old Wang is reliable. I was too hasty just now!"

Wang Xuan, who was originally calm, was now a little annoyed. He really wanted to say, "Brother, can't you keep quiet and not interrupt?!"

The best way to handle this kind of thing was to get over it as soon as possible without any explanation. So Wang Xuan remained calm as if nothing had happened.

Zhao Qinghan remained silent and lightly clinked glasses with Wang Xuan before turning around and leaving with an elegant back.

"Did I say something wrong?" Qing Cheng asked. He knew he had made things worse.

Wang Xuan patted his shoulder and said, "You didn't say anything wrong. Look, she left directly, and no one is embarrassed now."

Qing Cheng exhaled alcohol and said, "No, my intention was to talk to her alone and have a drink. Now she's gone. Who am I going to talk to?"

"Just go over there. She hasn't left yet," Kong Yi suggested.

Then he pulled Wang Xuan away and came to the edge of the mountaintop, gazing at the lights on the distant land.

"Somebody helped you speak and wants to take you to New Planet," Kong Yi said, leaning on the railing with both hands.

Wang Xuan already knew that Professor Lin had approached investors.However, he felt that Kong Yi must have more to tell him, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.

"The head of the Old Arts research project remembers you. Although your situation does not meet the selection criteria, your performance in Old Arts is amazing, so they want to make an exception and take you with them."

Sure enough, there was something hidden in it. Kong Yi had something to say to him alone.

"Ling Wei's family intervened and wants to suppress you on Old Planet, not allowing you to go to New Planet."

These words rang in Wang Xuan's ears like thunder, instantly sobering him up. His gaze became extremely sharp, staring at Kong Yi.

Kong Yi was always strong and showed no weakness. He turned around to face him and said, "If you don't believe me, you can investigate it yourself. There will always be clues left behind. Besides, since I know about this, there must be others who know as well."

"Why are you telling me all this?" Wang Xuan asked.

Kong Yi said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that if you get even a hint of this news and know that someone is suppressing you, you will wrongly blame me in the end. I won't take the blame for this!"

Before he left, he added in a low voice, "Ling Wei's family is much more powerful and influential than you think!"

Watching his back disappear into the lights of the villa, Wang Xuan still stood in place, turning around to look at the sparkling city below the mountain.

"Did I think too highly of people?" he muttered.

Earlier, Qing Cheng had suspected that his ex-girlfriend's family was behind the suppression, but he had shaken his head at the time, thinking it was unlikely.

Wang Xuan had met Ling Wei's father before, or rather, the middle-aged man had come to him on his own and put pressure on him.

At their first meeting, although Ling Qi Ming was very serious, he also had another side. His face was full of concern and love for his daughter, afraid that she would choose the wrong person.

At that time, Wang Xuan was scrutinized by the other party, and Ling Qi Ming asked him very harsh questions, but he did not get angry.

Putting oneself in another's shoes, if he had a daughter who had a boyfriend on another planet, Wang Xuan thought he would also be worried and would go and check on them.

Ling Qi Ming's aura was too strong, and in the end, Wang Xuan couldn't take it anymore and was warned repeatedly.

However, at that time, no matter how strong Ling Qi Ming's aura was, he did not use his connections to target him privately, which made Wang Xuan's impression of him not too bad.

Wang Xuan always refused to judge others with malice, and he would always try to think from the other person's perspective. He believed that this was a strong father's protection for his daughter, although it was excessive, but it could still be understood.

Until now, he felt that he had thought too highly of some people and things.

He shook his head, exhaled a breath of air, and walked back. He didn't want to dwell on what had already happened. People always had to look forward.

"Wang Xuan, come over here!" Zhou Kun called him over to drink.Wang Xuan's eyes suddenly became strange. He knew that once Zhou Kun started drinking, he would become a different person, talking non-stop.

Zhou Kun didn't care and said, "Didn't I tell you when I came to find you? We're going to drink and chat tonight."

Not far away, Su Chan, Xu Wenbo, and others' eyelids twitched slightly. Zhou Kun was actively trying to leak information. Once he got drunk, he would become a chatterbox and answer any questions.

"Is he doing it on purpose?" Li Qingzhu whispered.

Su Chan shrugged and said, "Let him be. New techniques are no longer a secret. It will definitely spread to Old Planet soon."

Wang Xuan understood that Zhou Kun was using his drunkenness to voluntarily tell him some information.

At this time, Qing Cheng came over, looking very happy. "I just had a drink with the goddess alone. She said she would come to the moon to see me when she has time. Oh, and she asked me how advanced you are in Old Techniques. I told her that you are about 9.8 Kong Yi, 12.5 Zhou Kun, and 11.6 Xu Wenbo."

Zhou Kun, who was originally planning to get drunk, became unhappy when he heard this. "Qing Cheng, why are you comparing us like this?"

Even Kong Yi walked over with an unfriendly expression and said, "Can't you speak properly?!"

Even the usually cold Xu Wenbo couldn't hold back and twitched his mouth twice, saying, "Qing Cheng, do you have to measure us like that? Am I just a unit of measurement now?"

"I just said it casually. What's the big deal with drinking? Why do grown men care so much?" Qing Cheng pulled Zhou Kun and said, "I like drinking with you the most. Come, let's have another drink!"

Zhou Kun looked at him sideways. Qing Cheng was definitely trying to get him drunk and extract information. He was not unaware that Qing Cheng actually wanted to "leak" information to Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan quickly stopped Qing Cheng, afraid that he would really get Zhou Kun drunk and fall to the ground. "Drink slowly."

Qing Cheng was surprised. Zhou Kun had started to become talkative after drinking half a cup.

"I'll tell you, there is a new technique on New Planet, also called Super Technique, and some people even hope to call it Divine Technique..."

"Zhou Kun, you have some nerve, talking nonsense outside. Some things are still in the confidential stage. Is it okay for you to do this?"

An abrupt voice came, and someone was approaching quickly.

It was a young man with short hair and a sturdy body. He was 185 cm tall and had very bright eyes that were sharp and piercing.

"Brother Yun, I'm drunk. I'll be careful next time." Zhou Kun woke up from his drunkenness, but he was not nervous. Obviously, he knew this man.

The newcomer was several years older than Zhou Kun and Xu Wenbo. He had wheat-colored skin with a luster and a strong personality. He spoke bluntly and stared at Wang Xuan and Qing Cheng, "You guys are daring. Trying to get information from Zhou Kun by getting him drunk?"Zhou Kun immediately stopped him and said, "Brother Yun, this is a gathering among classmates. If you want to drink, go to the room!"

Kong Yi, Xu Wenbo, and others also came over and blocked his way, advising him not to do this.

"Who are you? Why are you talking so rudely? Are you crazy?!" Qin Cheng didn't tolerate him at all and questioned him directly.

Seeing Su Chan, Li Qingzhu, and others also coming over, Brother Yun smiled and said, "Why are you all so nervous? Am I such an unreasonable person?"

Zhao Qinghan walked over and said, "Brother Yun, I know why you are here. Please don't do this."

Brother Yun smiled and said, "I'm not here to cause trouble today. I just heard that someone here is practicing old techniques and I want to learn from them."

"Wang Xuan, aren't you curious about new techniques? Come and spar with me. I'll show you!" The man known as Brother Yun said.

For a moment, not to mention the classmates from Old Planet, even the classmates from New Planet were shocked. He actually... mastered new techniques?!

Wang Xuan remained calm. He had already noticed that this person came on a small airship and parked in a slightly smaller open space not far from two flying saucers. When he appeared, he walked directly towards them.

Wang Xuan realized that this person was coming for him because his gaze had fallen on him several times, constantly scanning and observing.

Now, this young man directly called out his name.

"A simple spar, do you dare to have one? Old techniques versus new techniques. Are you confident?" Brother Yun asked again.

Wang Xuan looked at his face thoughtfully.

In the past, if someone inexplicably challenged him, Wang Xuan would mostly ignore it and not bother with it. However, this young man made him interested. He had already mastered the so-called new techniques, and Wang Xuan really wanted to see what kind of path it was!

"New techniques, also known as super techniques, and some people prefer to call them divine techniques."

A very assertive man said to himself, then added, "Old techniques are almost officially eliminated in New Planet. Now, some people are beginning to call it crude techniques."

He waved to Wang Xuan and said, "Do you want to prove it? See if old techniques can still shine with new brilliance."
