Didn't Dare Provoke Him

Teacher Wang was furious. She said in a low voice, "Who was it? Who beat my son like this? I, Wang Tianmei, am someone with status in Nuoding. Tell Mommy, and Mommy will stand up for you!"

Wang Zhe hurriedly said, "Mom, it was that Ye Yu who beat me!"

"Ye Yu?"

All at once, Wang Tianmei froze. Her expression turned ugly, and she fell silent.

"Mom, you have to stand up for me."

Wang Zhe looked expectant. The only person who could avenge him was his mother.

Wang Tianmei calmed down and asked, "What happened? Why did he hit you? Explain everything clearly from beginning to end. You're not allowed to hide anything."

Seeing his mother calm down, Wang Zhe had a bad feeling, but he still recounted what had happened.

After hearing it, Wang Tianmei sighed. "Son, I can't help you with this. If he had taken the initiative to provoke you and hit you, then even if the headmaster valued him, I would still seek justice for you. But you were the one who took the initiative to provoke him. What's more, he's already a Level 21 Soul Grandmaster. His future is limitless. Even the headmaster has to treat him politely. Even Principal Ma Yun of the intermediate academy values him highly. He isn't someone I can afford to provoke."

Wang Zhe instantly fell into despair. He could only swallow this anger.

Rong Yao, however, was disdainful. "Although I don't know why he reached Level 21 so quickly, his Martial Soul is a Waste Martial Soul. He won't achieve anything in the future. He looks fierce now, but once he reaches Level 29, he'll definitely be unable to improve and be stuck at Level 29 for the rest of his life. Of all the Waste Martial Souls that have ever appeared, not a single one has had Soul Power surpassing Level 30. That's what the teacher taught us, and it's common knowledge."

Wang Tianmei sighed. "That's hard to say. I heard that his own physique is different from ordinary people's. You've seen that for yourselves too, haven't you? Even with a Waste Martial Soul, the headmaster still values him. You two should behave yourselves from now on."

Wang Zhe and Rong Yao were in despair. Their only hope was gone.

At this moment, Ye Yu had already packed his luggage and was preparing to leave.

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others saw Ye Yu off to the school gate, very reluctant to part.

Ye Yu said, "You all head back."

Wang Sheng said firmly, "Boss, I'll cultivate hard and go to Nuoding Intermediate Academy to find you!"

Ye Yu: "..."

Ye Yu frowned slightly. Why did those words sound a little strange?

"Don't say things like that. That should be something said between a man and a woman." Ye Yu rolled his eyes at Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng said regretfully, "If only I were a girl. I'd definitely pursue you, Boss."

"Get lost!" Ye Yu kicked Wang Sheng flying with one foot.

Beside them, Xiao Wu let out a pleasant giggle. "Brother Yu, then can I say that? I'll cultivate hard and enter Nuoding Intermediate Academy as soon as possible, and then we can be together again."

Ye Yu nodded. "Mm. When Xiao Wu says it, it sounds much easier on the ears."

"All right, bye, everyone." Ye Yu waved and left.

Ye Yu did not go directly to the intermediate academy. First, he went to the weight shop from before.

When he arrived, the boss recognized Ye Yu at a glance.

Ye Yu took off the eight-thousand-Jin vest he was wearing. The boss stared blankly. It seemed that to Ye Yu, this vest had become even lighter.

"This vest is already useless to me." Ye Yu tossed the vest aside and walked toward the fifteen-thousand-gravity area.

Under the boss's horrified gaze, Ye Yu picked up the Gravity Armor, Wrist Guards, and Leg Guards one after another, leaving him dumbfounded.

"Boss, how many Gold Soul Coins are these five pieces in total?" As he spoke, Ye Yu took out a heavy pouch of Gold Soul Coins and shook it. The pleasant sound of the Gold Soul Coins clinking together made the boss's eyes light up.

Previously, Ye Yu had said he would soon come back with money to buy them. Now he had actually come with money to buy them.

"These five pieces are forty Gold Soul Coins in total." The boss bent at the waist, extremely polite, while also trying to curry favor. "If you give me that eight-thousand-Jin vest, you only need to pay thirty-five Gold Soul Coins."

The boss could tell that Ye Yu was a student of Nuoding Academy, and at Ye Yu's age, he was already this terrifying. He would definitely accomplish something in the future, so the price he gave was the lowest, and he even offered a discount.

Ye Yu nodded, took out thirty-five Gold Soul Coins, and gave them to the boss. Then he put the items on directly.

The vest, the left and right Wrist Guards, and the left and right Leg Guards. Five pieces in total, each weighing 15,000 Jin. After wearing them all, the weight Ye Yu was bearing now was 75,000 Jin!

After putting them on, Ye Yu moved around and hopped twice, shaking the ground until it trembled.

The boss's eyes widened as he looked at Ye Yu as though he were staring at a monster.

"Not bad. They aren't light, but they're not so heavy that they affect my movements either. Boss, get some heavier ones in the future."

"Of course, of course! I'll definitely prepare them for you." The boss nodded repeatedly with a beaming smile.

Ye Yu approached Nuoding Intermediate Academy. When he arrived, the students were just about to start class and were entering the campus one after another.

Among these students, the youngest were nine years old, and most were twelve or thirteen.

Ye Yu came here and was about to enter, but he was stopped by the gate guard.

Compared to these students, Ye Yu stood out. He looked much younger.

The gate guard sized Ye Yu up and found that he was wearing the uniform of Nuoding Junior Academy.

The gate guard said politely, "Student, did you come to the wrong school? You should be going to Nuoding Junior Academy."

Nuoding Junior Academy had just recruited new students. Every year, there were students who came to the wrong place and ended up at the intermediate academy. He was already used to it.

The students passing by around them looked arrogant. They glanced at Ye Yu with contempt in their eyes.

"A new student from the junior academy. If you want to enter the intermediate academy, go study at the junior academy for a few years first."

"Do you think the intermediate academy is that easy to enter? Out of ten people, at most two can make it from the junior academy into the intermediate academy."

"Kid from Junior Academy, hurry up and leave. This isn't a place you should be."

As students of Intermediate Academy, they naturally acted high and mighty when facing students from Junior Academy, as if they were a cut above them.

Just then, Ye Yu took out his graduation certificate.

"I've already graduated. Here's the proof. Take a look."

The moment Ye Yu took it out, the steps of the students around him who had been about to enter the school came to an abrupt halt.

The gate guard examined it carefully and was shaken. It was real!

"Sorry, I thought you were a new student from Junior Academy. Please, go in." The gate guard hurriedly apologized.

The students around him who had just mocked Ye Yu froze, saying in astonishment, "Could it be that his actual age is older? He just looks young?"

At that moment, Dean Ma Yun came running over quickly. They had originally agreed that he would personally welcome him when the time came, but Ye Yu had arrived half an hour early. After seeing him from a distance, he hurried over.

After Ma Yun arrived, the surrounding students immediately showed respectful expressions, stood straight, and saluted in unison. "Dean Ma Yun!"

Ma Yun was not only the academy's dean, but also the strongest person in Nuoding City, a forty-second-rank Soul Ancestor. In their hearts, he was a truly important figure.

The next scene left the surrounding students utterly shocked. They saw Ma Yun walk toward Ye Yu with a welcoming smile and say, "Ye Yu, you're here. I'll take you to register."

"Mm, sorry to trouble you, Dean."

"It's no trouble." Ma Yun led the way ahead.

This left all the surrounding students staring in disbelief.

"This... How could..."

"The dean personally came to welcome him, and he's being so polite."

"Could that new student be from the nobility?"

"He definitely is. Otherwise, why would the dean act like this?"

After their shock passed, the students who had mocked Ye Yu just now were instantly filled with regret and panic, afraid they had offended an important figure like him.

Ye Yu felt that having the dean personally come to receive him was good too. It would make the students wary of him, so that in the future, when he was cultivating, there would not always be some bit players coming to provoke him and waste his time.
