Qin Ji Transfers Schools, Encounters Ye Xuan Again!

"Shut up!" Ye Xuan said coldly, then swept his gaze around the area.

As his gaze passed over them, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop sharply. Though they were all Creator Gods, long immune to heat and cold, they still felt a chill seep into their bones.

"Ye God is so cold..."

"Ye God is so aloof! I love him so much..."

The previous uproar was gone. The boys had long since fled, leaving only a few utterly lovestruck girls who had already been conquered by Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan was helpless at the sight, but there was nothing he could do. He could hardly attack his own classmates.

That loud shout just now had already contained the Ice Law derived from the Five Elements Great Dao. That was why the temperature had fallen, even making Creator Gods who no longer feared the cold feel a chill from the depths of their hearts.

So after warning them, he could only let those people keep talking.

He strolled along and soon arrived at the School Field. People were scattered about in its various corners—some flirting and dating, while others were fighting there.

Because the School Field was enormous and could accommodate many people, and because nothing inside it could be damaged, its other function was that of an Arena.

The center of the School Field was essentially the center of the Arena. Everyone would subconsciously leave it open for those who wanted to fight.

Of course, in name, it was sparring. In reality, it was a place for students to settle personal conflicts.

There were very few Third Year students active around the school. Most were First Year and Second Year students.

Although Third Year students had the most freedom and leisure, they were also facing the threat of graduation. Aside from those who had given up, everyone was working desperately hard.

Inside the Principal's Office.

"Principal, I want to transfer schools!"

Led by his director, Chai Yongyan, Qin Ji arrived at Principal Zhang Yuanwu's office.

The Principal was sitting behind his desk, while Chai Yongyan and Qin Ji sat opposite him.

Zhang Yuanwu stopped the brush he had been waving, set it down, and asked in surprise, "Oh? Where do you want to transfer to?"

Naturally, he knew Qin Ji. Before Ye Xuan revealed his talent, he had once planned to give Qin Ji the qualification for the Reaching Heavens Ranking.

Although Qin Ji was talented, he could not save Lin Tian No. 1 High School from losing its status as the city's top high school. Zhang Yuanwu needed someone stronger, someone with even more outstanding talent, to save the school. That was why he had delayed his decision.

If their school failed to produce a student ranked in the top thousand of the Province Ranking this year, then after one more year, it would have gone ten thousand years without producing one. A school like that would have its quota revoked and given to another school.

He did not believe Qin Ji could achieve that, so he had hesitated all along. Once Ye Xuan exposed his talent, he chose Ye Xuan without the slightest hesitation.

Because he knew Ye Xuan would definitely enter the top thousand of the Province Ranking. Even reaching the top thousand on the Ancestral Star would only be a matter of time.

That would preserve Lin Tian No. 1 High School's qualification. Ye Xuan's success might even bring greater educational resources to Lin Tian No. 1 High School, ensuring it would never face such a situation again.

How far the students they trained advanced on the Reaching Heavens Ranking was solid, undeniable performance!

"I want to transfer to Lin Tian No. 9 High School. Their Principal hasn't used the qualification for the Reaching Heavens Ranking either, and he agreed to let me use it!" Qin Ji said solemnly and confidently.

Lin Tian No. 9 High School was not much better off than Lin Tian No. 1 High School. While it would not have its qualification revoked this year, it would happen within a few years.

Most critically, their school did not even have a single student their Principal found satisfactory. After hearing about Qin Ji's situation, he invited Qin Ji over and promised to give him the qualification for the Reaching Heavens Ranking.

It was a gamble either way. It was better than wasting the quota on the useless students of his own school.

"Have you decided? I won't stand in the way of your future. If you've made up your mind, I can help you process the transfer." Zhang Yuanwu nodded.

A Principal's duty was to discover and cultivate geniuses whenever possible. Since their quota had been used up, he could not block another student's path.

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Ji said firmly, "I've decided. Thank you, Principal!"

He knew that if he did not enter the Reaching Heavens Ranking, he would not even have a chance to enter one of the Five Great Academies. If that happened, he would only be farther away from that man!

A white figure could not help appearing in his heart.

I wonder what rank he has now, he thought, and the determination in his eyes grew even stronger.

"Good! I've already submitted the paperwork. Just have the Principal of No. 9 High School stamp it!"

Zhang Yuanwu nodded with a smile.

Handling paperwork was much simpler in this age. A single sweep of his Divine Sense had settled it.

As for the brush from before, he only practiced with it when bored, to cultivate his temperament.

"Thank you, Principal!" Qin Ji thanked him again.

To him, simply not being prevented from transferring was already an immense favor.

"Mm, go on. Strive to bring honor to Lin Tian City!" Zhang Yuanwu picked up his brush again and spoke without raising his head.

To him, as long as Lin Tian No. 1 High School could develop well and Lin Tian City could develop even better, that was enough.

"Thank you, Principal. I will!" Qin Ji said with conviction, then strode out.

No one knew why his Dao heart had recovered so quickly. Clearly, Ye Xuan had shattered the pride in his bones that day, even ruthlessly trampling the things he had once been proud of beneath his feet with utter disdain.

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Yuanwu felt the young man before him might go even farther in the future.

Setbacks were not frightening. What was frightening was being unable to walk out of them.

Just as Qin Ji headed for the door, Ye Xuan walked in.

"Principal!"

Ye Xuan said with a smile, ignoring Qin Ji as he walked straight toward Zhang Yuanwu's desk.

He did not know why, but after wandering around, he had somehow arrived beneath this building. Since he was already here, he decided to come up and visit the Principal.

Qin Ji clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with endless fear. As he passed by this man, he once again felt that untouchable gap.

The difference between you and me is that between clouds and mud!

Those words appeared in his heart again. The sentence and the scene from that day repeated endlessly in his mind, and his body began to tremble slightly.

Chai Yongyan, standing nearby, frowned. He immediately rose and headed outside. As he passed Qin Ji, he grabbed him and dragged him out, then shook him fiercely outside the Principal's Office.

"Pull yourself together!! He is no longer your opponent! He already left you far behind! Your opponents are other people!"

But Qin Ji's eyes were vacant, as though he had not heard a thing.

Inside the Principal's Office.

"So it's Ye Xuan! How did it go? What rank did you get the first time you entered the Reaching Heavens Ranking?" Zhang Yuanwu looked up with a smile and asked curiously.
