Why Are You Yelling So Loud?

Heaven Dou Academy had a strength assessment. Anyone who entered the academy and failed to reach Level 21 after one year of training would be expelled.

Level 21 was the academy's strict standard, meant to weed out useless playboys who slacked off in their training!

"What did you say? You already submitted an evaluation saying I failed?!!" Fang Xuan could no longer remain calm. His expression turned ugly as he kept glaring at Teacher Ruolan.

"Haha! Just kidding~"

Teacher Ruolan laughed so hard she trembled, waving a hand at Fang Xuan.

To be honest, she rather enjoyed teasing this little brat who always liked to act profound. He was just a kid whose feathers had not even grown in yet, yet he constantly wore the air of some lofty master who had seen through the vanity of the world.

Whenever she managed to anger this calm, monstrously talented youth into jumping with rage, Ruolan felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

"Tch, what an awful person!"

Fang Xuan's lips twitched slightly. He was deeply dissatisfied with Teacher Ruolan's behavior.

He did not know whether Qian Renxue had wanted to mess with him, deliberately assigning him to Teacher Ruolan's class and even making him classmates with Xue Beng!

Two princes in one class.

One wastrel, one good-for-nothing. That was quite the curiosity!

Still, he rarely attended class. He usually hid at home practicing his blade, only occasionally showing up so people would remember his face. Once a model student at Tsinghua Garden, he had now fallen straight into the category of scum in his teachers' eyes!

"I thought you'd forgotten about today's assessment, kid..."

Teacher Ruolan brushed back her flame-like hair and fixed her gaze on Fang Xuan. Her gentle, watery eyes gradually sharpened. "Since you dared to come take the assessment, that means you're confident!"

"Mm!"

Fang Xuan nodded seriously. His Soul Power had already reached Level 22. Not only had he met the academy's requirement, he had even exceeded it by one level.

"In that case, release your Soul Rings directly," Teacher Ruolan said calmly.

Soul Rings were a direct way to quickly gauge a Soul Master's current strength. If Fang Xuan had truly met the standard, he should possess two Soul Rings by now.

Fang Xuan froze. "I don't have any..."

Now it was Teacher Ruolan's turn to lose her composure. She snapped irritably, "What did you say? What do you mean, you don't have any?!"

"I currently have no Soul Rings, but my Soul Power Level has indeed reached the standard!"

"Innate Full Soul Power at Level 21?"

"Acquired Full Spirit Power at Level 22!"

Ruolan and Fang Xuan stared wide-eyed at each other, their expressions utterly comical.

"Acquired Full Spirit Power? And Level 22?!" Teacher Ruolan gritted her silver teeth, her willow brows shooting upward as she involuntarily clenched her delicate fists and roared at Fang Xuan, "Who are you trying to fool?!"

The angry sound waves rolled forth, tossing his neat black hair into disarray and forcibly knocking Fang Xuan back three steps.

If you don't believe me, then don't believe me...

Why are you yelling so loud?!!

This roar was anything but ordinary. It contained Soul Ancestor-level Soul Power, and Fang Xuan felt as though some terrifying lioness was roaring at him. The hairs all over his body rose slightly.

"Teacher, if you don't believe me, you can bring over the instrument for testing Soul Power and test me in person!" Fang Xuan said.

"There's no need for such trouble. I think what you lack right now isn't a test, but a beating!"

Teacher Ruolan had long been dissatisfied with this unconventional student. The anger she had suppressed for so long finally exploded completely at this moment.

"You there, come out!" She pointed into the crowd. More than a dozen students looked at one another, having no idea which divine being "you there" was supposed to refer to.

If they remembered correctly, no one among them had that name.

Once her temper flared up, she really could not control it. Teacher Ruolan immediately locked onto Xue Beng in the crowd and snapped, "Xue Beng, I mean you. Come out!"

"Oh... yes, Teacher!"

Xue Beng blanked out for a moment, then hurried over to Teacher Ruolan's side, looking ready to brave mountains of blades and seas of fire for her!

"Idiot, not over here!" Teacher Ruolan glared at Xue Beng and pointed at Fang Xuan across from him. "You, go defeat him!"

Among this group of Heavenly Micro Level students, Xue Beng's strength was not outstanding. He was only Level 23, but dealing with Fang Xuan, that problem student, should not be an issue at all.

More importantly, the two were brothers: one wastrel, one good-for-nothing!

It had been a long time since there had been a showdown between brothers~

A mischievous smile curled across Teacher Ruolan's lips as she thought this with ill intent.

"What do you mean?!" Fang Xuan frowned, looking at Teacher Ruolan in confusion.

"It's simple, Fang Xuan. As long as you defeat Xue Beng, I'll acknowledge that you've met the standard and allow you to remain at the academy. If you can't do it, quietly pack your things and leave. Heaven Dou Academy does not keep good-for-nothings!" Teacher Ruolan said flatly.

Before Fang Xuan could say anything, Xue Beng spoke with a look of disgust. "Teacher, I refuse! Why should someone as noble as me duel with such lowly trash?!"

Fang Xuan was merely a lowly Illegitimate son, not even qualified to inherit the Royal Family's surname. Meanwhile, he, Xue Beng, was the dignified Fourth Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, incomparably noble.

Though the two were brothers in name, Xue Beng had never acknowledged Fang Xuan as his useless younger brother. The two had not exchanged a single word at the academy.

"Shut up. I'm telling you to defeat Fang Xuan, not asking whether you're willing!" Teacher Ruolan snorted coldly. Level 49 Soul Power rippled outward, making Xue Beng shudder.

"Yes, Teacher!"

Xue Beng hurriedly nodded obediently and followed Teacher Ruolan's command.

He stepped forward, and Level 23 Soul Power swept out like a fierce gale, causing his luxurious goose-yellow robe to flutter!

At the same time, two yellow Soul Rings rose into the air. The Heaven Dou Royal Family's exclusive Swan Spirit flickered into view around him, proving his identity as a legitimate member of the Royal Family.

Xue Beng looked arrogant as he cast Fang Xuan a disdainful glance, sneering, "You little bastard, surrender on your own, or I won't mind breaking one or two of your arms!"

Fang Xuan calmly stared at the insolent Xue Beng, remaining silent.

"You don't know your place! I'll let a low-blooded little bastard like you see the power of our Heaven Dou Royal Family's Swan Spirit!"

Xue Beng laughed wildly. A pure white swan shone brilliantly around him as he abruptly shot forward, his fist smashing viciously toward Fang Xuan.

Whoosh!

Fang Xuan's eyes snapped open, and he swiftly drew the Shadowless Blade from its sheath.

Blade Drawing Technique!

A lightning-like blade flash streaked past. Xue Beng sprayed blood wildly and screamed as he was sent flying backward!

The entire crowd was stunned!

PS: Pfft~ I spent a little more time chatting in the group, so there won't be a second update today!

But I desperately restrained my urge to chat, giving up my noble status as Dragon King, all for you, my dear readers!!

So hand over your votes and bookmarks! Mwah~
