A Freak Beyond S-Class

"Mentor, what kind of question is that? I'm already fourteen, not a three-year-old child. Isn't it normal for me to understand these things?" Lu Yunxiao said calmly, spreading his hands.

"Oh? Is that so? Then does our little genius have a girl he likes?"

Mentor Ruolin asked with a smile.

"What, Mentor Ruolin, are you interested in my private affairs too?"

Rather than answering directly, Lu Yunxiao narrowed his eyes and countered with a question.

"I'm only trying to be kind. If you don't have a girl you like, I could introduce you to one. There are plenty of beauties at Jia Nan Academy."

Mentor Ruolin said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mentor, but there's no need. If there's a girl I like, I'll pursue her myself," Lu Yunxiao said blandly.

"Is that so? What a pity." Mentor Ruolin shook her head, looking regretful.

Lu Yunxiao curled his lips and said nothing. After only a few exchanges, he had realized that although Mentor Ruolin was gentle, her words were quite sharp.

She was very practiced at turning the tables.

Sure enough, mature women had seen much more of the world. They were no longer as easily embarrassed as Little Girls.

Not every woman was as innocent as Yun Yun. Although Yun Yun was about the same age as Mentor Ruolin, she was far more conservative at heart.

Yun Yun was pure and kind, and deeply devoted when it came to love. Thinking of that peerless figure capable of Overthrowing Nations and Cities, Lu Yunxiao's mind drifted slightly. This woman's charm was truly immense. Several days had already passed, yet her figure still lingered in his heart, never fading away.

One day, you'll be mine, and that day won't be far off.

Lu Yunxiao silently made up his mind. He had to win Yun Yun over. In both his past and present lives, after so many years, this was the first time he had cared so deeply about a woman.

"Since the Host wishes to be with Yun Yun, then work hard to improve yourself. Strength is the greatest foundation," the system suddenly said.

"Of course. I'll do my best to speed up my growth."

Lu Yunxiao answered, his expression firm. His resolve to Become Stronger had never wavered.

In a world like the Dou Qi Continent, only great strength could serve as the foundation for everything. Otherwise, even if one obtained something, without the strength to protect it, one would ultimately lose it.

He had understood this principle from the very beginning.

Gathering his thoughts, Lu Yunxiao glanced at Mentor Ruolin beside him, then shifted his gaze toward the entrance. Outside, a crowd of new students had already poured in.

Mentor Ruolin moved her gaze away from Lu Yunxiao and looked at the new students entering the tent.

Lu Yunxiao also joined the group of new students. There were not many of them, fewer than twenty in total.

Thinking of the long line he had seen that morning, Lu Yunxiao could not help shaking his head. Most of them had merely come to join in the fun. Very few could actually pass the test.

Mentor Ruolin surveyed them once more, her clear, watery eyes blinking slightly as she said with a soft laugh, "Hello, everyone. Congratulations on passing the test and officially entering Jia Nan Academy. However, since the academy needs to distinguish each student's potential rating, I now need to know your exact strength."

"Eight stages of Dou Qi corresponds to an F-class potential rating. This is also the minimum admission requirement for Jia Nan Academy."

"Nine stages of Dou Qi corresponds to an E-class potential rating."

"One-Star Dou Zhe is D-class, and so on. The highest level is Five-Star Dou Zhe, which is S-class."

"Speaking of which, in Jia Nan Academy's admissions history over the past decade or so, only one person has reached S-class. That Little Demoness became a prominent figure in the academy not long after entering."

At this point, Mentor Ruolin paused. She looked at Lu Yunxiao and said with a smile, "Originally, I didn't dare hope to encounter an S-class genius student like that. But after meeting you today, I feel there may be some hope. Little genius, do you think you can reach S-class?"

"You'll find out soon enough, Mentor." Lu Yunxiao shrugged and smiled.

"That's true. But judging from your expression, you seem very confident." Mentor Ruolin's eyes flickered slightly. Lu Yunxiao's calmness reassured her. It seemed quite likely that she had encountered an S-class genius student today.

"Perhaps." Lu Yunxiao replied calmly.

"Hehe, what an interesting little genius." Mentor Ruolin chuckled. With a wave of her Fair Hand, a green parchment scroll and an ink brush appeared in her hands.

"Alright, let's begin. Starting from the left, state your name, level, and age."

Mentor Ruolin said with a smile.

As soon as she spoke, the student standing at the very front on the left was the first to report his information.

"Lin Feng, eight stages of Dou Qi, nineteen years old."

"F-class." Mentor Ruolin recorded his information and marked him as F-class.

"Li Xing, eight stages of Dou Qi, nineteen years old."

"F-class."

"Zhao De, nine stages of Dou Qi, nineteen years old."

"E-class!"

The many students reported their information one by one. Most were E-class or F-class, and all of them were already nineteen years old.

Only one student had reached D-class, yet that alone made Mentor Ruolin happy for a while. After all, in a small place like Mo City, having a student reach D-class was already quite good.

As for B-class and A-class, there truly were not a single one.

After the dozen or so students had reported their information, nearly everyone's attention turned to Lu Yunxiao, the last person who had yet to report his.

Since he had easily defeated Zhang Yuan, a Four-Star Dou Practitioner, Lu Yunxiao had to possess at least the strength of a Four-Star Dou Practitioner. In other words, his rating would be at least A-class.

Moreover, there was a considerable chance that he could reach S-class. After all, Lu Yunxiao had won so easily, so it would be perfectly normal if he were a Five-Star Dou Zhe.

But before Lu Yunxiao announced his level, everyone's thoughts remained mere speculation. Thus, they were all very curious about his true strength.

"Little genius, it's your turn. It's time to reveal the answer to all of us, isn't it?"

Mentor Ruolin looked at Lu Yunxiao and smiled sweetly.

Hearing this, Lu Yunxiao smiled faintly. He glanced at the curious crowd around him and spoke softly, "Lu Yunxiao, Six-Star Dou Practitioner, fourteen years old!"

The moment his words fell, the tent instantly became deathly silent. Mentor Ruolin, who had been holding her brush ready to record his information, froze mid-motion, and a look of shock appeared on her Pretty Face.

The others could not help opening their mouths slightly as well, staring blankly at Lu Yunxiao.

"Six-Star Dou Practitioner... potential beyond S-class, one level higher than the Little Demoness, and only fourteen years old. The Little Demoness is already sixteen."

Mentor Ruolin spoke with difficulty, but her eyes were filled with barely concealed ecstasy. This time, she had truly found a treasure.
