Idiot

The entire class erupted again.

One after another, they looked at Ye Hao with utter disbelief.

"What's gotten into Ye Hao? His personality has changed completely! He actually dared speak to Li Lengxuan like that. Isn't he afraid Li Lengxuan will brutally humiliate him in this afternoon's academy Martial Arts Battle?"

"Ye Hao must have really gone mad... He's probably been bullied for too long. Maybe he just doesn't want to endure it anymore."

The boys and girls murmured among themselves.

Though they were all shocked by Ye Hao's change, it changed nothing at all.

Ye Hao was merely at the Body Refining Realm Eighth Level.

Li Lengxuan, meanwhile, was already at the Qi Condensation Realm Third Level.

They were separated by an entire major realm. Ye Hao stood no chance against Li Lengxuan.

This afternoon's Martial Arts Battle would be miserable for Ye Hao.

"Ye Hao, looks like you've grown some guts. Count me in too. If you run into me during this afternoon's Martial Arts Battle, I'll make sure you understand that in a world where martial arts reign supreme, the weak should obediently listen to the strong!"

At that moment, a brocade-robed youth in the class rose to his feet. His features were effeminate, giving people an uncomfortable feeling.

His name was Jiang Shaojie.

He was the one who had previously ordered Ye Hao to massage his head and knead his shoulders!

Seeing this, some people in the class secretly sighed. Li Lengxuan wanted to deal with Ye Hao, and now Jiang Shaojie did too...

Ye Hao's days at the academy would likely become even harder from now on.

These people had also been bullied by Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie, but they had all swallowed their anger in silence.

They could only secretly sympathize with Ye Hao's plight, not daring to say anything openly.

Ye Hao looked at Jiang Shaojie and calmly uttered two words. "Dumbass."

After hearing that, Jiang Shaojie's already naturally effeminate face turned as grim and vicious as a venomous serpent.

"Just you wait!"

Jiang Shaojie glared at Ye Hao, his eyes brimming with savagery.

"Wait my ass! Dumbass!"

Ye Hao cursed again.

Jiang Shaojie's face darkened further with rage, his fists clenched tight.

But like Li Lengxuan, he was constrained by the academy rules and did not dare attack Ye Hao in private.

In the end, he could only sit back down in fury.

Seeing Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie both seething with such dark expressions, the students in the class

could not help feeling as if the tables had turned.

The Ye Hao of the past had always been cowardly, swallowing his anger in silence.

Yet now, he had the two bullies stewing in frustration!

Still, some students secretly sighed and worried for Ye Hao. This afternoon, if Ye Hao at the Body Refining Realm Eighth Level encountered Li Lengxuan at the Qi Condensation Realm Third Level in the Martial Arts Battle, the outcome would surely be brutal!

The academy rules stated

that as long as neither party was crippled nor had their life endangered during a battle on the Martial Arts Stage, anything was allowed.

One could well imagine how Li Lengxuan would torture Ye Hao in the afternoon's Martial Arts Battle.

"Feels great!"

Ye Hao was no longer in the classroom. He had arrived at a sparsely populated area of the academy.

Sitting cross-legged, he took several low-grade Spirit Stones from his Storage Bracelet.

Then he began circulating his cultivation method!

The cultivation method Ye Hao circulated was a Wordless Heavenly Tome he had obtained earlier in a secret realm of the Otherworldly realm.

The Wordless Heavenly Tome had one hundred pages in total!

At present, words had appeared on two of those pages!

It was a cultivation method that pointed straight to the Way!

It was called the Great Freedom Mad God Art!

Unlike traditional cultivation methods, this method focused more on the cultivator's Martial Heart.

To cultivate the Dao was to cultivate the heart.

To master this cultivation method, one's state of mind had to possess a Clear Mind!

So long as one had a Clear Mind, one could cultivate the Great Freedom Mad God Art, this cultivation method that pointed straight to the Way!

This cultivation method suited him well.

In the past, his mind had never been clear.

When Li Lengxuan, Jiang Shaojie, and the others bullied him, he had not even dared to let out a fart.

Even if he harbored resentment, he had only dared to sulk by himself!

That had caused most of his energy to be trapped in the vicious cycle of mental self-consumption.

But now, he was no longer the person he had once been!

He would no longer swallow his anger in silence!

As he circulated the Great Freedom Mad God Art along its unique circulation route, the Low-grade Spirit Stones before him visibly dimmed at a rapid rate.

Ye Hao's realm rose along with it!

Body Refining Realm Ninth Level!

Body Refining Perfection!

Qi Condensation Realm First Level!

Ye Hao took out more Spirit Stones from his Storage Bracelet and continued cultivating.

His realm continued to rise!

Qi Condensation Realm Second Level!

Qi Condensation Realm Third Level!

Only upon reaching the Qi Condensation Realm Third Level Peak did his cultivation cease breaking through.

Ye Hao slowly opened his eyes.

The book said that as long as his mind was clear enough and he had sufficient Spirit Stones, he could break through without limit.

"Clear Mind."

A faint smile appeared on Ye Hao's face.

For now, Ye Hao's understanding of a clear mind was to settle the injustices in his heart and erase some of the resentments of the past.

The afternoon's Martial Arts Battle was the perfect opportunity.

In the blink of an eye, afternoon arrived.

Because of what had happened at noon, the many students in Ye Hao's class were all on high alert.

At noon, Ye Hao had offended Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie, and both of them had declared that Ye Hao should just wait and see.

The students in the class all had different thoughts.

"Ah, Ye Hao really messed up. He offended Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie. He'll probably be bullied even worse at the academy from now on. When the time comes, he'll likely be viciously beaten every time they fight. Back then, Ye Hao should've obediently gone over and massaged Li Lengxuan's legs."

"That's what I think too. Ye Hao has swallowed his anger for so long already. He only needs to endure another half year before leaving the academy, so why offend Li Lengxuan now? But then again, when Ye Hao snapped back at Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie at noon, it felt damn good!"

Two students spoke in low voices.

Like Ye Hao, they had both been bullied by Li Lengxuan and Jiang Shaojie. Though they felt Ye Hao's actions at noon had been far too unwise, seeing the two of them get knocked down a peg still made them feel immensely satisfied.

"Hehe, there'll be a show this afternoon. Wasn't Ye Hao acting pretty arrogant at noon? In a moment, he'll be beaten back to his original form."

A youth shook his head. "The weak should behave themselves. If they don't, someone will naturally put them in their place. That's the rule!"

Some sympathized with him, while others waited eagerly for the spectacle.

After a while, all the students had arrived in the classroom and sat quietly in their respective seats.

"Ye Hao, just wait and see during the Martial Arts Battle later!"

Li Lengxuan, who sat behind Ye Hao, viciously threw out those words at him.

"Idiot!"

Without even turning around, Ye Hao cursed back.

Ye Hao's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but everyone in the classroom heard it.

They all looked at Ye Hao in shock.

They could not understand it at all.

They were about to fight on the Martial Arts Stage, yet Ye Hao was still talking so tough? Was he really not afraid of dying???

After all, everyone's realms had been tested just a month ago.

A month ago, Ye Hao had been at the Body Refining Realm Eighth Level.

Even if he had made a breakthrough within this month, he would only be at the Body Refining Realm Ninth Level.

Yet Li Lengxuan was already at the Qi Condensation Realm Third Level...

The difference was enormous!!!

There was no way Ye Hao could turn this around!!!

Keeping his mouth hard now would only make his downfall even more miserable later!

"Fine, fine, fine! Ye Hao! You've successfully enraged me!"

Li Lengxuan's face twisted viciously.

"Idiot!"

Ye Hao cursed without even turning his head.
