A day later, Ji Bing stood at the front of Class One's classroom.

"Your teacher, Xue Yue, has taken a month of leave, so I'll be teaching you for the next month."

"Teacher Ji Bing?"

"Isn't she on bad terms with Teacher Xue Yue? Why was she assigned to substitute for her?"

"She won't take out the frustration she suffered from Teacher Xue Yue on us, will she?"

"We're done for. This month is definitely going to be tragic."

Wang Sheng was also somewhat confused and could not help asking Wu Xiaodong and Wu Xiao'ai beside him, "What exactly is going on between Ji Bing and Teacher Xue Yue?"

"This..."

Wu Xiao'ai's expression became extremely strange, but she did not say anything.

Meanwhile, Wu Xiaodong wore a meaningful expression. "I heard that Teacher Ji Bing likes Teacher Xue Yue."

"What? Isn't she a woman?"

Mei Hu tilted her head, looking utterly puzzled.

"There's a kind of creature in this world called a lesbian. Hehe..."

"Hm?!"

Although Wang Sheng had already suspected as much, hearing such huge gossip so suddenly still left him unable to react.

"Sigh! Poor Teacher Xue Yue. Because of Teacher Ji Bing, she's already in her early thirties and has never had a boyfriend!"

As soon as Wu Xiaodong finished speaking, the entire classroom fell silent.

A cold gaze turned toward him.

Unfortunately, he was getting carried away and did not notice it at all.

Seeing this, Wu Xiao'ai no longer even had the heart to mock her brother. She quickly moved several meters away, as though Wu Xiaodong had turned into some terrifying beast.

"Hehe..."

Mei Hu also chuckled as she quietly took a few steps away.

Wang Sheng patted Wu Xiaodong on the shoulder. "Sigh! Brother, know when to stop."

After that, he swiftly moved away as well, adding, "For the sake of our friendship, I'll observe ten seconds of silence for you."

Wu Xiaodong: "..."

After a moment of confusion, he saw everyone around him moving far away from him.

He finally realized what was happening and stiffly turned around. What greeted him was Ji Bing's dazzling smile.

Yet her icy eyes made it abundantly clear that beneath that brilliant smile lay powerless fury.

"Hm?!"

Wu Xiaodong instantly burst into tears. Looking at Wang Sheng with grievance, he thought, You only asked because I told you. Isn't this way too disloyal of you?

Wang Sheng ignored him outright and said to Mei Hu, "Meier, what kind of training do you think we'll have today?"

Mei Hu cooperated perfectly. "Hehe, Brother Sheng, I think it might still be five-against-five combat training."

Wu Xiaodong... I have an MMB to say, but I don't know whether I should.

Wu Xiaodong could not help looking at Wu Xiao'ai, but to his surprise, she immediately ran over to Wang Sheng and Mei Hu. Putting on the appearance of someone deeply engaged in discussion, she said, "Brother Sheng, I think it might be one-on-one combat training!"

Wu Xiaodong's expression grew even stiffer.

Just then, Ji Bing spoke. "Today, we'll be doing physical training. Everyone, run ten laps around the academy!"

"Yes!"

At this point, even an idiot could tell that Ji Bing was like a walking soul beast right now!

It was safer to stay far away from her!

Thus, every one of them instantly became model students and ran outside as fast as they could.

Wu Xiaodong was overjoyed and tried to use the opportunity to skip a class, sprinting out in front.

Unfortunately, he froze in place the very next moment.

Because Ji Bing spoke again. "Wu Xiaodong, stay behind!"

Wu Xiao'ai said, "Sigh! Brother, it isn't that your younger sister won't help you. Your crime is simply unforgivable!"

Wang Sheng said, "Ahem, brother, I'll be going on ahead. You have to hold on!"

Mei Hu said, "Don't worry. I'm sure Teacher Ji Bing knows her limits. You definitely won't die."

Wu Xiaodong... Every word the three of them said made his face twitch.

What sins had he committed in his previous life? Having a younger sister who mocked her brother every day was bad enough, but now he also had two friends who were such backstabbers.

"Wang Sheng, Mei Hu, and Wu Xiao'ai, the three of you stay as well. Join Wu Xiaodong for some special training!"

As soon as Ji Bing finished speaking, the three of them froze too.

Wu Xiaodong could not help laughing. He whispered to the three of them, "Serves you right for showing off! Stay here with me and endure her anger together! Hahaha!"

Wu Xiao'ai ignored Wu Xiaodong's gloating and said solemnly, "Um, Teacher Ji Bing, there's no need for us, right? My brother was the one spouting nonsense. If anyone should be punished, punish him!"

"Ahem..."

Wu Xiaodong was thoroughly stunned by Wu Xiao'ai's merciless words about selling out her brother.

Mei Hu immediately chimed in, "Exactly, exactly! We've always believed that there's only desire between the opposite sexes, while true love exists only between the same sex!"

"Ahem..."

This time, it was Wang Sheng's turn to cough. He really wanted to ask Mei Hu where she had learned that line.

But when Ji Bing heard this, her eyes lit up, and even a smile appeared on her face. The way she looked at Mei Hu changed.

Although Ji Bing could tell from Mei Hu's attitude toward Wang Sheng that she was talking nonsense, she had to admit that those words had truly spoken to her heart.

"I'm not that petty, so you don't need to be afraid! I didn't keep you behind to punish you, but to give you special training for the class competition at the end of the month!"

"After all, Xue Yue entrusted you to me. If we lose, I won't have the face to see her again."

"Whew!"

All four of them breathed a sigh of relief, especially Wu Xiaodong.

"Wu Xiao'ai, Xue Yue told me that your first soul skill is Gravity Field! Within a ten-meter radius, it can double the gravity on yourself or a target, right?"

"That's right!"

"Good! Now apply double gravity to them."

"Yes!"

Although she did not understand what Ji Bing intended to do, Wu Xiao'ai immediately complied.

A magnificent garment appeared on her body, adorned with the pattern of nine radiant stars.

This was Wu Xiao'ai's martial soul, the Nine Radiance Star Garment!

At the same time, Wu Xiao'ai began chanting, "Nine Radiance Star Garment, First Radiance, Gravity Field!"

A yellow hundred-year soul ring appeared, then lit up.

In an instant, Wang Sheng felt as though he were carrying dozens of pounds on his back.

"Alright. From now on, you will complete various physical training exercises under gravity until Wu Xiao'ai runs out of Soul Power!"

Hearing this, Wang Sheng nodded inwardly. Using the Gravity Field soul skill for training really is a good idea! It not only tests Wang Sheng, Mei Hu, and Wu Xiaodong, but is also highly beneficial for Wu Xiao'ai's control over her Soul Power and soul skill.
