Global Awakening: Eavesdropping on the SSS-level School Beauty's Inner Voice-Chapter 160 - 158 Attacked! Meng Xiyue’s Guardian Beast Master superpower is sealed!
Chapter 160: Chapter 158 Attacked! Meng Xiyue’s Guardian Beast Master superpower is sealed!
Upon receiving a reminder from Meng Xiyue, Lin Tianming grinned and said, "Thanks for the heads-up, Xiyue, you’re so good to me. Don’t worry, I won’t force my Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby to grow too fast!"
"Who’s good to you? I’ve told you not to act like we’re close when you talk to me, and now you’re directly calling me Xiyue? I only reminded you because I thought your Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby was cute, you Guardian Beast Master noob without any beast taming experience!"
Meng Xiyue felt she could be driven to death by Lin Tianming’s attitude.
She had already told him countless times that they weren’t close, but Lin Tianming, as their conversation went on, addressed her more and more affectionately, acting as if they had a great relationship.
[This Lin Tianming, a kind reminder from me, and he really thinks we’re close!]
[The grudge from my last life, where you pushed me into an abyss—I haven’t forgotten it!]
[In this life, don’t expect me to be as naïve as before and harbor any feelings of affection for someone with a beastly heart like you!]
This wasn’t the first time Lin Tianming had heard the heart’s voice of this Goddess Reincarnator who despised the original person, and he had grown accustomed to it.
As long as he had the ability to eavesdrop on thoughts, he wasn’t afraid of not being able to woo her!
Afterward, Lin Tianming and Meng Xiyue finished watching the last few blind box openings.
None of the remaining blind boxes contained Guardian Beast prizes more valuable than the one Lin Tianming had opened.
But Meng Xiyue also opened the second most valuable prize.
The two students had unveiled the most valuable Guardian Beast prizes, drawing envious looks from those amateur and low-end Guardian Beast Masters.
Lin Tianming was enjoying these gazes, but Meng Xiyue at his side was anything but happy.
Just thinking about her blind box prize being inferior to Lin Tianming’s, her face fell.
Seeing her disappointed and unhappy, Lin Tianming was secretly thrilled.
Meng Xiyue hugged her Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby as she followed Lin Tianming out of the Guardian Beast Store.
Feeling playful, Lin Tianming teased her, "Xiyue, you’ve got the second most valuable prize, why do you look so unhappy?"
[Isn’t it because of you? And you have the nerve to ask! I really want to... Forget it, he’s Level 18 and has the upper hand over me now, I’ll wait until I reach Level 18 to handle it!]
Meng Xiyue truly wanted to clobber the Lin Tianming who was teasing her, but she knew she couldn’t win against him, so reason told her not to trouble Lin Tianming for now.
[Endure the humiliation, bide my time... Meng Xiyue, you can definitely get your revenge, push forward!]
Listening to Meng Xiyue’s self-motivation, Lin Tianming cheered her on in his mind.
Then you better push forward, dear little Xiyue!
Just don’t give up halfway while seeking revenge!
Amusing himself briefly, Lin Tianming continued to tease her, "Xiyue, seeing you’re so unhappy, how about you give me the prize you got from the blind box? That way, out of sight, out of mind — you’ll be happy!"
Meng Xiyue originally intended to ignore Lin Tianming, but he became even more eager to tease her, which caused her to lift her pretty face and glare at him.
"Dream on! Also, you seem addicted to calling me Xiyue, don’t you? I forbid you to call me that!"
"It’s a bit addictive indeed, Xiyue!"
"You..."
Infuriated and at a loss for words by Lin Tianming, Meng Xiyue was in a foul mood.
However, Lin Tianming knew where to draw the line. He gave a look to the Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby lying in Meng Xiyue’s arms, assigning it the role of peace ambassador.
The Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby, already finding Meng Xiyue a very approachable Guardian Beast Master and tasked by Lin Tianming, was eager to alleviate its master’s worries.
Lying in Meng Xiyue’s arms, it let out an adorable tiger’s roar, proactively seeking favor with Meng Xiyue.
Meng Xiyue also liked the Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby very much, and seeing that it wanted to play with her, she happily entertained it in her arms.
Soon, her bad mood from being bullied by Lin Tianming was swept away.
"The Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby is really cute!"
"This little guy is so adorable, here, have a bite of our special homemade snack! Here, this is the Water Attribute Guardian Beast Biscuit exclusive to our Meng Family, it’s delicious and nutritious. Eating it will also help you grow faster!"
Watching Meng Xiyue recover her good mood so quickly, Lin Tianming also marveled at her affection as a Guardian Beast Master, and her complete lack of resistance to such a cute Awakened Beast Baby.
Seizing the opportunity, Lin Tianming said to Meng Xiyue, "Xiyue, our Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby really likes you. You can come and visit more often, I think it would love to play with you!"
To be honest, Meng Xiyue didn’t want to have too much interaction with Lin Tianming; she only wanted to seek revenge against him.
But Lin Tianming’s Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby was really too adorable, and it was so clingy and amusing that she, as a Guardian Beast Master, truly couldn’t resist this temptation.
"I will come to see this little guy when I have time, but don’t think this will make me get along with you!"
Hearing the additional words Meng Xiyue specifically tagged on, Lin Tianming had to hold back his laughter.
As long as she really came to visit the Blue Crystal Water Tiger Baby often, how things would develop then would be beyond her control.
"Okay, but speaking of which, Xiyue, I still prefer the you from before the match. Why do you become like a different person after we fight?"
Faced with Lin Tianming’s question, Meng Xiyue, who didn’t feel she had changed, was stunned, "Really?"
Lin Tianming intentionally brought up this topic and said, "Yes! Before we sparred, you treated everyone with manners, whether it was Senior Yong Yu whom you sparred with or me, all the same. But after sparring, whenever you meet me, you become extremely irritable."
Reminded by Lin Tianming, Meng Xiyue also realized that every time she encountered Lin Tianming after sparring, she couldn’t completely calm down.
Under normal circumstances, she wouldn’t be like this.
Even if she disliked someone, she wouldn’t seem so irritable.
"It seems because of the memories from my previous life, coupled with my loss to him before, I’ve been feeling an uncontrollable irritation because I see no hope for revenge in the future..."
"At least I can’t let him think I despise him, or it will be even more difficult to take revenge!"
Just as Meng Xiyue was about to revert to her pre-spar attitude towards Lin Tianming, she suddenly felt an intense sense of danger.
"The first thing she did was to say, "Not good, danger!"
Lin Tianming also sensed a strong sense of crisis, and his first reaction was to turn into a Spiritual Body to dodge.
As he dodged perfectly, the ringing of chains whisked past in front of him.
But Meng Xiyue wasn’t as lucky.
Just as Meng Xiyue was about to release an Awakened Beast from her Guardian Beast Seal to assist her, a chain wrapped around her palm.
The power of Sealing surged, instantly sealing Meng Xiyue’s Guardian Beast Seal, preventing her from releasing Awakened Beasts for combat in the short term.
"This is the power of Sealing! Bad... I can’t fight like this!"
Realizing the dire situation, Meng Xiyue looked in the direction from which the chains had struck, and a man shrouded in chains and a hood appeared in her line of sight.
"Such a strong aura... I can’t sense his Level at all... That means his Level is far beyond me now. With my Guardian Beast Ability sealed, there’s no way I can compete with such a High-level Awakened!"
The man’s face was hidden in the shadow of the hood, completely obscuring his features.
The man stepped toward Meng Xiyue: "You have great Talent, I think highly of you. Join the Yellow Clothes Church, and I will train you to become the top Awakener in the world!"
As he spoke, the chains floating around the man attacked Meng Xiyue again.
"It’s over!"
Just when Meng Xiyue thought she was going to be captured alive by the opponent, she suddenly felt her body being lifted into the air, and then she was caught in someone’s embrace.
Instinctively, she wanted to struggle free, but then Lin Tianming’s familiar voice rang in her ear.
"Don’t move or you’ll slow down my escape speed, it’s me, Lin Tianming!"
