Class One classroom, Ye Yingluo was teaching theoretical knowledge about Martial Souls.
Jing Shaoyu sat by the window, looking out with some boredom. It wasn't that Ye Yingluo's teaching was bad, but the content she was teaching was all stuff Jing Shaoyu already knew, so he found it quite dull.
Suddenly, his body jolted, and his eyes widened involuntarily.
Who did he see? The girl from East Sea Park last night! Sure enough, she really was Gu Yue!
A faint sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart, followed by a fiercely burning ambition and fighting spirit that instantly filled his being.
Now, Jing Shaoyu's mind was even less on the class.
At this moment, on the playground, Xie Xie was called over by Wu Zhangkong. He was a little confused, and even more puzzled when he saw the strange girl standing in front of Wu Zhangkong.
"I'll give you a chance. If you beat her, you won't have to run this morning," Wu Zhangkong said dismissively.
"No problem!" Xie Xie's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.
"I'll give you twenty minutes to rest. We'll start in twenty minutes!" Wu Zhangkong said. "Yes!" Xie Xie replied, then immediately sat down cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes, and began to meditate and recover.
Gu Yue looked around the academy, seemingly very interested in everything, but never once glanced at Xie Xie, as if Xie Xie wasn't the one she was about to fight.
Wu Zhangkong glanced at her and said, "Disrespecting your opponent is a very unwise move."
Gu Yue replied indifferently, "I'm not disrespecting my opponent." Although she said that, her actions seemed to imply that Xie Xie wasn't even worth her contempt.
Wu Zhangkong said nothing more and continued to watch the other students who were running. Gu Yue's gaze also fell on the Class Five students who were running. She noticed Tang Wulin running at the front, a hint of coldness flashing in the depths of her eyes, before she turned her gaze to the teaching building on the other side.
Tang Wulin, who was running, felt a strange chill, but he didn't take it to heart. He just looked over here with some curiosity, wondering why Teacher Wu had called Xie Xie over, and who that girl was. She looked so aloof.
The Class One classroom was located on the first floor of the teaching building, very close to the playground, so when Gu Yue's gaze turned this way, she immediately saw Jing Shaoyu sitting by the window. A faint hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Twenty minutes passed in a flash. Xie Xie jumped up, stretched his muscles, and looked eager to try.
"Thirty meters apart!" Wu Zhangkong nodded and said.
The two retreated, standing thirty meters apart. Gu Yue withdrew her gaze and looked at Xie Xie, expressionless. Xie Xie, on the other hand, looked excited, thinking that after defeating this girl, he wouldn't have to run and could show off in front of Tang Wulin. Hehe, great!
"Begin!" Wu Zhangkong gave a simple shout.
Xie Xie immediately released his Martial Soul, going all out with his speed. A yellow Soul Ring floated behind him, and he held a Light Dragon Dagger in his hand, rushing towards Gu Yue quickly. His explosive power was excellent, like a nimble cheetah hunting its prey, rapidly closing the thirty-meter distance.
Gu Yue's reaction was unhurried. When Xie Xie was less than ten meters away from her, she leisurely raised her hand, and two yellow Soul Rings bloomed beneath her feet, causing Xie Xie's pupils to shrink suddenly, and also surprising Wu Zhangkong a little.
Xie Xie was surprised by Gu Yue's strength, but he wasn't afraid at all. The Light Dragon Dagger in his hand made a clear sound, and he appeared in front of Gu Yue, suddenly swinging it out and stabbing towards Gu Yue's shoulder.
Just as the Light Dragon Dagger was about to hit Gu Yue, a burst of cyan light bloomed from her body. Then, a gust of breeze rose up, striking Xie Xie from the side, making him feel a great force coming, causing his body to deviate, and the Light Dragon Dagger to miss its target.
Gu Yue's counterattack didn't stop there. Fireballs, ice cones, and beams of light were launched from her hands one after another. The diverse elemental abilities dazzled Xie Xie, making it difficult for him to cope, and also brought a hint of surprise to Wu Zhangkong's eyes.
The final result was obvious. Gu Yue easily defeated Xie Xie with her Great Soul Master strength and control over the six elements. It took less than a minute, almost shattering Xie Xie's Dao heart, and he was only awakened by Wu Zhangkong's cold snort.
The Class Five students all stopped running in surprise, still shocked by the battle just now. It was too terrifying, defeating Xie Xie in just one minute. This was too terrifying! "What are you looking at? Have you finished running?" Wu Zhangkong shouted at the Class Five students, who immediately ran like startled rabbits.
"Alright, from now on, you are a member of our Class Five. Now, let's start physical training," Wu Zhangkong said to Gu Yue with satisfaction, then glanced at Xie Xie. "Xie Xie, you too!"
"Ah? Didn't you say I wouldn't have to run after the fight?" Xie Xie wailed.
"Did you win?" Wu Zhangkong said coldly.
"I..." Xie Xie really wanted to retort, but when he thought of his crushing defeat just now, he immediately lost confidence and became dejected, running towards the playground in frustration.
Seeing this, Gu Yue didn't decline either, and with light steps, she joined the ranks of the Class Five students.
Tang Wulin deliberately slowed down to be level with Xie Xie, and asked with concern, "Xie Xie, are you okay?"
Xie Xie replied dejectedly, "I'm fine! I'm just a little upset, I've never lost so badly before!"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Tang Wulin comforted, "It's not the first time, just get used to it!"
"You..." Xie Xie almost spat out a mouthful of old blood after hearing Tang Wulin's words, and looked at him with some grief and indignation, and said, "Are those human words? Is that how you comfort people?"
"Ah! Hehe, am I not just telling the truth?" Tang Wulin showed a simple smile, but this smile seemed very evil in Xie Xie's eyes.
During their conversation, Gu Yue ran past them expressionlessly. Looking at Gu Yue's back, they were both stunned, then looked at each other and said in unison, "So cold!"
This was not an exaggeration, but Gu Yue really exuded a cold and indifferent aura that kept strangers away. Her face was also a cold expression, which made the students in the class who wanted to approach her retreat in disappointment. It was too cold, really too cold.
Soon, the morning classes were over.
"Tang Wulin, wait a minute!" Xie Xie caught up with Tang Wulin who wanted to go to the cafeteria for food.
"What's wrong? Are you going to treat me to a Grade A Meal again?" Tang Wulin showed an excited expression on his face when he saw Xie Xie, and said excitedly.
"All you know is eating!" Xie Xie rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said angrily, "Don't you think that Gu Yue is very strange?"
"Are you still dwelling on what happened just now!" Tang Wulin showed a speechless expression and said, "Didn't she just beat you? There's no need to be so concerned, right?"
"Bullshit! Am I that petty?" Xie Xie became anxious when he heard this, and said, "I'm just a little worried about the Promotion Tournament. If Teacher Wu lets her participate in the Promotion Tournament because she's so powerful, wouldn't one of us be replaced?"
"That's right!" Tang Wulin showed a clear expression when he heard this, but then, he showed a sympathetic expression, patted Xie Xie on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, Xie Xie, we can win without you!"
"Ah?" Xie Xie was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted, and said very dissatisfied, "Are you so sure that the one being replaced is me, not you?"
"Of course, hehe, you can't beat me, everyone in this class knows that!" Tang Wulin showed a mouthful of white teeth and said with a smile.
"You!" Xie Xie only felt his mind go blank, and he didn't know how to refute.
Just as the two were bickering, a handsome young man with delicate features and a refined and sunny temperament walked past them. Seeing the young man, Xie Xie couldn't help but say, "Tang Wulin, did you see that person? He's even better looking than you!"
"I saw him, I'm not blind." Tang Wulin rolled his eyes and said, "I think I've seen him before, oh, right, it was during registration."
"Hey, hey, look, he seems to know Gu Yue!" Xie Xie suddenly poked Tang Wulin with his elbow excitedly, and said, "That Gu Yue isn't a poker face, she's actually smiling? God, is this the benefit of being handsome?"
"Xie Xie, accept your fate, this is a world that values looks!" Tang Wulin suddenly put his hands on Xie Xie's shoulders, and comforted him with a serious and earnest expression, but his big eyes were full of smiles.
"Get lost!" Xie Xie slapped his hand away, and said angrily, "This young master is very confident in his appearance!"
"Hahaha! Really?" Tang Wulin laughed, then ran towards the cafeteria.
"Stop right there!" Xie Xie, feeling offended, immediately chased after him.
