Chapter 4: Flirting
Jiang Xiaobai had not yet realized what was happening when he heard the voices of those useless young masters, only to find that he had already been surrounded by them
After careful consideration, Jiang Xiaobai believes that there may be only one possibility: when he traveled through time, his phone, which was charging, established some form of connection with him. As a result, his current body possesses the corresponding hardware capabilities of the phone, with his brain functioning as the processor, memory, and storage, and his eyes serving as the camera, among other components.
Today, you must have gained the courage of a bear and the audacity of a leopard, to dare disregard my words!
Classmate, have you seen any writing here
The worthless scions, seeing that Jiang Xiaobai was ignoring them, stood to the side, as they were not concerned about Jiang Xiaobai but rather the girl inside. As a result, when they saw Jiang Xiaobai flipping through the book, they began to look down on him.
Hearing someone speaking must be an illusion; continue flipping through the book
Who is this person talking to? Never mind, it doesn't matter. I am almost done with this row of bookshelves, so I need to speed up
You all say, is that kid Xiaobai just pretending
Xiao Bai, your tactic is truly remarkable. Pretending to read a book and then asking someone a peculiar question in order to attract their attention, don't you think your approach is too obvious
There may still be wireless communication capabilities, but in a world without global internet, this technology is of little use. Even if it exists, there is no content. Given the current level of technology, a local area network can barely be established, but there are too many limitations to its existence
Is this not a form of photographic memory? If so, that would indeed be a good thing. Although strength is revered in the world, it does not mean that other skills are without value. Techniques such as mechanism arts and star formations are also very important. As long as one achieves success in a certain area, one can still become a successful individual, far surpassing the current uselessness.
Moreover, this speed is still increasing; the sound of him turning the pages has become quite jarring in this quiet library, drawing the attention of everyone, including the girl from earlier.
"Stop pretending. You came to the library just to flirt, but I didn't expect you to have the audacity to hold someone's hand. Do you know that you will soon become the public enemy of all the men in the capital" said the good-for-nothing scion.
No one knows how joyful Jiang Xiaobai is at this moment
What is the situation?
There are words in the book, what's wrong with that? Your way of flirting is too outdated
This feature is quite good, now my mother no longer has to worry about me suffering from face blindness, especially when it comes to seeing people from different ethnicities
Soon, Jiang Xiaobai realized that he truly possessed a unique ability. After just a glance at a page of a book, he could memorize the entire page as if taking a photograph, and then extract the text from the page. This extraction process was remarkably fast, almost instantaneous.
Hahaha, so powerful, I am still not invincible now, so what if I can turn the pages quickly, I can be even faster, because I can slow down the action, and the pages of the book can be recorded one by one.
I do not know, nor am I interested in knowing. Even if the Empress were before me now, I would not have the time to concern myself with her. Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand, unwilling to continue on this matter, simply because he had more important things at hand.
You are seeking death
Jiang Xiaobai closed his eyes, reflecting on the content of the first page he had just read. He found that the pages of the book and the text vividly emerged in his mind, this time even clearer, no longer floating in the air as it had before
Yue Renjie immediately threw Jiang Xiaobai, who landed heavily on the bookshelf and then slid to the ground. Fortunately, the bookshelf was secured, but the books on it fell down, landing on Jiang Xiaobai.
"What?" Jiang Xiaobai asked in confusion
Jiang Xiaobai only heard a beautiful yet indifferent voice, and then his hand was twisted by someone and forcefully slammed onto the ground, causing him to see stars all around.
The scene fell silent, and being grabbed by the collar and lifted up, one actually claimed that others were elevating themselves. I have truly never seen someone so forcefully put a tall hat on themselves.
Are you suggesting that what was just seen was merely an addition of some virtual images within the scene observed?
At the same time, he suddenly felt that perhaps his initial crossing over was due to his mobile phone, blaming himself for being greedy and buying a phone rumored to explode
A circle encircles the head of a remarkable individual, and a line extends from it. The line connects to some information about this remarkable individual, which is, of course, known to Jiang Xiaobai; it has simply been organized to be clearer.
What is it? It is certainly an act. Just look at him; he is not reading a book at all, he is merely flipping through the pages. Even if one could read ten lines at a glance, it still requires some time to look. He is just flipping through the book.
Well, from now on I will rely on my intellect; this is not just a dream for us modern individuals. Force and violence have already been eliminated
"Oh, isn't this Brother Renjie? You don't need to go out of your way to elevate me. Is it more convenient for you to look up at me this way? I don't mind at all," Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.
... ...
Wait a moment, page, text
It is no wonder that they look down on Jiang Xiaobai. At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai is turning the pages at an increasingly rapid pace. While others at least take a glance at each page, he does not even spare a glance, flipping through more than ten pages in just one second
Yue Renjie, a young prodigy from the Yue family, aged sixteen, the son of the second master Yue Rongsheng, possesses the star spirit attribute of fire, and is a level nine star apprentice
What exactly is going on with this character? Am I the only one seeing it? What does this mean? If this is a special ability, why does it only display pages and text, and why can only I see it? What is the purpose of this?
Jiang Xiaobai grabbed a passerby and pointed at the words in his eyes, asking.
Regardless of the circumstances, the discovery of this ability made Jiang Xiaobai suddenly feel that the future was bright and gave him a sense of being among the elite
Jiang Xiaobai, you useless burden, get away from me!
Indeed, look at him, he is actually reading faster and faster, is this a case of reading ten pages at a glance
What are you talking about? Jiang Xiaobai still does not understand
Jiang Xiaobai felt as if someone had grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up. In helplessness, he had no choice but to pause his book entry and look at the person who was holding him.
The pages and text of the book are all a form of virtual imagery, conjured up by his mind, and he is now able to control the switch, position, and size of this virtual imagery.
Do you really not know who the person you just captured is
At this speed, I will clear out this library today! Alright, these are important books; first, I must thoroughly examine all the cultivation techniques here.
This must be yet another of his strategies, intended to attract my (her) attention
Get lost
