Fang Zhou smiled slightly and said humbly, "That's because pioneers like Instructor Xinyan blazed the trail, laying a solid foundation for those of us who came after. I'm merely standing on the shoulders of giants; I dare not take pride in it."

A look of satisfaction flashed in Instructor Lu Hu's eyes. He shook his head gently and sighed, "'Standing on the shoulders of giants,' indeed. No wonder Xinyan likes you so much. Not only are you not the least bit arrogant or self-important, but your words are as sweet as honey, going straight to the heart."

He looked up at the fierce duels among the rookies on the training field, waved at Fang Zhou, and said, "Your combat training session for today is over. I don't have any more teaching duties either, so you're free to do as you please."

Fang Zhou nodded, saluted Instructor Lu Hu, and walked over to the rest area to sit down.

After watching the other students' combat performances for a while, Fang Zhou lowered his head and activated his personal terminal.

Just as he was about to log into [Demon Extermination Total War], his terminal suddenly buzzed with a notification.

[Undead Mage is Invincible] (Su Xinyan): "Fang Zhou, remember to come find me after your training. The young, living Troll I requested from the military academy has been delivered to the laboratory. There's only one in the first batch. You can come over and try conducting some experiments. Huang Qiuyue and Shen Ziwei have also been notified and are waiting for you in the lab now."

Fang Zhou's eyes lit up, and he stood up excitedly.

Instructor Xinyan is truly amazing. I didn't expect the most crucial experimental material for the Professional's bone regeneration project, the Living Troll, to be delivered to the lab so quickly.

He immediately replied to Instructor Su Xinyan.

[Ordinary Apprentice] (Fang Zhou): "Instructor Xinyan, my combat training for the afternoon has ended. I'm on my way back to the lab now. Please wait for me with Instructor Huang Qiuyue."

Then, Fang Zhou stood up, said a brief farewell to Instructor Lu Hu, and walked out of the underground passage, heading toward the Undead Mage research group's labs.

...

In the laboratory, Fang Zhou's eyes lit up the moment he saw Instructor Su Xinyan.

Today, her outfit was exceptionally bold and elegant. She had abandoned her usual flowing dresses for a rose-red cheongsam.

The cheongsam clung to Su Xinyan's figure, showcasing curves like those of an Enchanting Demon in exquisite detail. Yet, it didn't look vulgar. Instead, it possessed a certain indescribable, noble elegance.

Beneath her slightly upswept hair, her fair, slender neck was revealed. A small expanse of her smooth upper back was exposed, the contours of her delicate skin radiating an astonishing allure.

Her incredibly thin waistline then swelled dramatically at her hips, creating a stunning curve that was utterly eye-popping.

Below that, her long, fair thighs were encased in flesh-colored stockings as thin as a cicada's wing, the very picture of temptation.

Seeing Fang Zhou knock and enter, Instructor Su Xinyan gave a slight nod of acknowledgment before bending down to take off her high heels.

The posture accentuated the perfect curve of her backside, and the sight of her small, exquisite feet slipping out of the shoes was utterly tantalizing.

Fang Zhou's expression didn't change as his eyes remained locked on Instructor Su Xinyan's every move.

For some reason, under Fang Zhou's aggressive stare, she just couldn't seem to get her high heels off.

So, Instructor Su Xinyan leaned against the wall for support. She turned to glare at Fang Zhou and chided playfully, "You clueless little apprentice, what are you standing there for? When there's work to be done, the disciple lends a hand. Don't you know to help your mentor?"

Fang Zhou smiled and nodded. Then, he suddenly knelt, his hand reaching out to grasp Su Xinyan's delicate ankle.

"Instructor Xinyan, you're moving so slowly. Are you tired? Let me help," he said in a perfectly normal tone as he began to help her with her shoe.

But his hands were hardly just taking off the shoe. He stroked and plucked at it, his movements slow and deliberate as he toyed with her delicate ankle. He was clearly savoring the moment.
