Chapter 115: 111 drinks soda
Fang You has now acquired a new type of talent called "Breath Perception," which is an ability that can be actively turned on and off.
After obtaining this ability, Fang You felt that everything around him suddenly became clear and transparent.
Although he was not looking at anything in particular, the exact location of the person behind him was already forming in his mind.
He could easily determine the locations of each person outside his field of vision, and even roughly visualize the outlines of their figures.
This meant that if someone were to attack him from behind, Fang You could accurately determine their position and the path of the attack.
In a sense... this could already be considered a superpower, right?
But the first application that came to Fang You's mind was to use it against Nuo Nuo, who always loved to sneak attack him from behind.
Great, from now on I can dodge before she jumps on my back!
Or, maybe I could suddenly turn around and give her a scare?
...
Of course, this ability still has a lot of potential applications.
Although the world's security management is very good, it can't stop someone whose brain short-circuits from causing trouble for me, it will be very helpful in situations with many people around.
Having many skills does not burden one, so it's good news that the safety factor has increased...
And Fang You's outstanding performance in actual combat deeply attracted the attention of Meng Xing, the head of Jingji Martial Arts Hall.
After calming down the emotions of her ace student, Meng Xing hurriedly found Fang You, who was searching for new knowledge, and not very kindly slapped him on the back.
"You kid... said you were just having your first experience, but you're actually quite a seasoned martial artist! Let sister check... hmm, quite sturdy indeed!"
Meng Xing squeezed Fang You's elbow, and Fang You calmly said:
"Auntie, I don't like it when people touch me like this. If you keep on touching me, I'm going to call the police."
"Ah, don't... calm down. No, I mean I should calm down, let's calm down. Don't call me auntie, call me sister."
Meng Xing covered her chest and breathed heavily for a moment, then made a somewhat frightening effort to smile:
"I, I'm telling you, little brother, you're not sent by some martial arts hall to challenge us, are you?"
"I'm not that bored; I genuinely came here to learn." Fang You had indeed gathered a substantial amount of knowledge energy today.
"How about it, are nunchucks fun?"
"Not bad, not boring," Fang You nodded.
"Then, would you like to join our one-on-one private lessons?"
Meng Xing said seriously, "Go talk to your dad about it! Sister sees great potential in you! By the way, since you're so knowledgeable about martial arts, you must know about the talented martial arts girl, Yue Yipei, right? She came from our Martial Arts Hall. Let me tell you..."
"I'll think about it."
"Don't worry about the money! For someone as impressive as you, sister will give you a discount... no, half off, how about half off?"
Meng Xing's eyes were full of excited stars at the prospect of discovering a martial arts prodigy. Such a promising youngster, I'd be happy to teach for free!
Okay, I admit it, I just think none of the little students I'm coaching now have the talent like Fang You!
If I could personally train a child like the talented martial arts girl, then my youth martial arts hall would surely thrive!

Ah, just thinking about it gets me excited!
Fang You was coaxed by the excited head of the hall for quite a while, but he wasn't the type of kid to be easily persuaded and said he needed to go back and discuss it with his parents.
Fang You may seem like a child on the outside, but his wisdom exceeds that of ordinary people. He was now evaluating the pros and cons of the youth martial arts experience class.
Fang You could hardly gather energy from theoretical knowledge.
However, in actual combat, practicing those theories from the books for the first time did allow him to gain a certain amount of knowledge energy.
But martial arts, in a sense, were not entirely new to him; maybe trying to explore an entirely unfamiliar field would yield more knowledge energy.
In any case... there was no need to rush the decision.
It took some effort for Fang You to escape from the hands of the excited head auntie, and just as he left the Martial Arts Hall, he received a call from Nuo Nuo.
"Hello hello hello—this is Captain Nuo Nuo calling Emperor Youyou, please respond if you receive this message!"
"What is it."
"What are you doing? I went to your house to find you, and you weren't home... Didn't you say you weren't going to the library anymore? You lied to me, bad Youyou."
"Yeah, I'm not going anymore."
"So where did you go to have fun?"
Fang You fell silent for a moment before answering, "I went to a youth martial arts experience class."
"That sounds like fun!"
Xia Nuo said excitedly on the phone, "Can I go too? I want to see Youyou fight."
"I've already finished."
"Can you come back and teach me then? I'm really interested too!"
"Okay."
"Then I'll wait for you at home, bye-bye!"
Fang You hung up the phone.
He felt a bit puzzled by his own hesitation when Xia Nuo had asked where he was going.
Actually, he could have just said it directly. Why did he hesitate?
Weird.
Fang You took the bus back to Dragon City Garden, bought two cans of soda at the supermarket by the entrance, and then headed to Xia Nuo's place.
He pressed the doorbell.
Through the door, Fang You suddenly perceived the presence of two children.
The one with long hair was obviously Ayu, and the one with short hair...
Hm?
At that moment, the door to Xia Nuo's house slowly opened.
Luo Xianyu, who had just confirmed through the peephole that it was Fang You, jumped down from a stool and cautiously peeked out from behind the door.
"It's me!"
"Wow, it's Ayu, you came to play at Nuo Nuo's place!"
Fang You couldn't act calm and had to pretend to be surprised.
Right after, Luo Xianyu pulled Fang You inside and closed the door, then gave him a big hug in the entryway.
Eight-year-old Luo Xianyu was growing fast, transforming from a little pea into a tall young girl.
With her long, straight black hair, Luo Xianyu's features were not the typical childish ones, rather classical and mature, which made it easy to misjudge her age at first glance.
However, when she saw Fang You and smiled with her eyes curving up, the dimples on her face revealed the innocent and naive side beneath her serene beauty.
"Dad!"
Although she was already an eight-year-old child, Luo Xianyu still called Fang You "Dad" as she used to.
She even turned this into a normal nickname.
Although Fang You had advised her many times, it seemed to be of no use, so he had become accustomed to letting the topic pass.
He touched Luo Xianyu's little head and asked casually,
"Where's Nuo Nuo?"
"Nuo Nuo isn't home, Dad, play with me."
"Is Nuo Nuo really not at home——"
Fang You swung the can of soda in his hand towards the small cabinet in the entryway, "Then the kiwi-flavored soda I brought for Nuo Nuo will be drunk by Ayu."
Click.
The cabinet in the entryway suddenly made a snapping sound, and Ayu immediately covered her mouth with her hands, nervous that Fang You would notice her movement.
Then, Fang You slowly walked to the cabinet, opened it gently, and saw Xia Nuo hidden inside, in a twisted position, staring at him.
She could no longer hold back her suppressed laughter.
"Pffhahaha—ouch!"
Xia Nuo, dust-covered, was pulled out of the cabinet by Fang You. She dusted herself off, "I was planning to surprise you by popping out from behind you after you two came in and scare you good!"
"Well, it seems you failed, did you hit your head?"
Fang You embraced Xia Nuo's head and gently rubbed it, "I've never hidden in this spot before, Youyou, how did you notice me, waah..."
Xia Nuo still felt dejected. Just then, Luo Xianyu pointed at the other can of soda, seeking Fang You's approval.
"Dad, can I drink this can of soda?"
"Yes, go ahead."
Then, Luo Xianyu handed the can to Fang You, and he immediately got the hint, pulled the tab of the can open with a 'pop' sound.
Xia Nuo took the first sip.
"Hmm… This flavor is good too."
Luo Xianyu took the second sip and then handed it to Fang You, "Dad, you drink too."
Glug glug.
Fang You drank the third sip.
Then Xia Nuo, holding his hand, bounced around excitedly, "Youyou, what did you learn at the Martial Arts Hall? Show me and Ayu some of your moves!"
