“Ah?” Henry Carter was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded and said, “Okay!” Henry Carter kept a one-inch distance from Grace Hamilton, gesturing with his right hand in the air.

Grace Hamilton, following Henry Carter’s guidance, began to slowly trace out the Triple Tidal Palm technique. Feeling Henry Carter’s presence so close, Grace Hamilton couldn’t help but feel her heart pounding wildly. It was the first time she had ever been this close to a boy, so she quickly tried to calm herself.

Grace Hamilton circulated her vital energy, sketching out lines of divine patterns in the air.

“Not right!” Henry Carter said urgently.

As soon as Henry Carter finished speaking, with a “bang,” the half-finished divine pattern suddenly exploded.

She failed!

Grace Hamilton was a little disappointed, but she didn’t give up. She said, “Let’s keep going!”

Henry Carter could only continue to gesture in the air, guiding Grace Hamilton.

Grace Hamilton tried several more times, but failed each time. Soon, her vital energy was depleted, and she was left panting for breath.

“Miss Ziyan, maybe we should stop for now and try again later!” Henry Carter said with a wry smile, glancing at Grace Hamilton. Grace Hamilton was drenched in fragrant sweat, and sketching out the technique was clearly exhausting. Because of the sweat, Grace Hamilton’s clothes clung tightly to her body, faintly revealing her fair skin beneath, giving off an indescribable allure.

Henry Carter quickly turned his head away in embarrassment, not daring to look any longer. Miss Ziyan’s noble aura made her feel untouchable.

“No!” Grace Hamilton shook her head firmly. She was determined to master this technique! After all, it was something her grandfather had left her!

Grace Hamilton took out a white pill and swallowed it, then sat cross-legged to cultivate and restore her vital energy.

Henry Carter couldn’t help but be surprised. That pill was a Yuan Spirit Pill, quite valuable—even some martial artists couldn’t afford to use it.

While Grace Hamilton sat cross-legged to recover, Henry Carter felt a bit bored. Looking down, he thought Grace Hamilton was almost unbelievably beautiful: her slightly curled lashes, delicate nose, and pink lips were all captivating in a way that was hard to describe. Her fine, long hair draped over her shoulders, making her look even softer and more graceful.

Following the line of her fair neck downward, Henry Carter felt his heart race. At her collar, he could faintly see a large expanse of fair skin and a beautifully curved cleavage. Though not overly prominent, it was full and just the right size to fit in one’s hand.

Miss Ziyan was recognized as the goddess of Nanxing Academy, and Henry Carter, being a young man full of vigor, found such temptation hard to resist!

“What am I thinking!” Henry Carter shook his head hard, banishing the chaotic thoughts from his mind. He took a deep breath, hurriedly looked away, and stared up at the ceiling, not daring to look at Miss Ziyan again. He had to admit, though, that Grace Hamilton’s beauty made his heart race, and he couldn’t help but steal a few more glances.

A moment later, Grace Hamilton opened her eyes. The Yuan Spirit Pill had already restored her vital energy.

She looked up at Henry Carter, about to say something, but when she met Henry Carter’s burning gaze, Grace Hamilton suddenly realized she was exposed. She let out a startled “Ah!” and her cheeks flushed pink as she jumped to her feet.

“I…” Henry Carter couldn’t help but feel a little awkward.

Grace Hamilton’s chest rose and fell slightly as she gradually calmed down. Although she was a bit embarrassed and annoyed, she didn’t say anything. She looked up at Henry Carter; compared to those other boys who tried to get close to her, Henry Carter’s slightly awkward and shy smile seemed much more sincere.

“Let’s continue!” Grace Hamilton made up her mind—she was determined to perfect the Triple Tidal Palm technique!

“Mm!” Seeing the determination in Grace Hamilton’s eyes, although he didn’t understand why Grace Hamilton was so persistent, Henry Carter, feeling a bit guilty, decided to help Grace Hamilton fulfill this wish.

Henry Carter continued to guide Grace Hamilton, but even so, they still failed. After all, Grace Hamilton wasn’t very skilled at writing the Triple Tidal Palm technique yet.

“Come, get even closer, it’s okay!” Miss Ziyan bit her lower lip lightly, glanced at Henry Carter, and said softly, a little shy.

“Even closer?” Henry Carter carefully took half a step forward. With that half step, his body was almost pressed against Miss Ziyan’s delicate figure, and Henry Carter could clearly feel the gentle warmth radiating from her.

A faint fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, and Henry Carter’s heart surged. Seeing that Grace Hamilton was about to make another mistake, he quickly grabbed Grace Hamilton’s jade-like hand and slowly guided her. The delicate, smooth feel of Grace Hamilton’s skin made Henry Carter’s heart flutter.

But at this moment, he couldn’t care about that. Holding Grace Hamilton’s hand, he slowly guided her strokes.

Feeling the warmth from Henry Carter’s palm, Grace Hamilton’s cheeks flushed slightly, but she quickly calmed down and focused on channeling her vital energy to trace out the divine patterns.

Chapter 8: Fivefold Tidal Palm

Henry Carter and Grace Hamilton were pressed closely together, and he could vaguely feel the roundness of her shapely hips. Henry Carter took a deep breath, trying not to let his thoughts wander, and held Grace Hamilton’s hand, guiding her stroke by stroke.

“Move this divine pattern to this position, disperse these two patterns, and rewrite the divine pattern here!” Henry Carter held Miss Ziyan’s jade hand, speaking calmly and steadily.

“Okay!” Miss Ziyan nodded seriously. Following Henry Carter’s instructions, she began to move, vital energy swirling at her fingertips. As the energy surged forth, lines of divine patterns floated in the air.
