The Poisonous Female Classmate

After arranging Youquan's enrollment, Xue Qinghe returned to the Crown Prince's residence.

"Young Mistress, why do you trust a little girl you just met so much? You even told her something as confidential as your identity." Stingray Douluo spoke disapprovingly.

"My instincts tell me she is a girl worth trusting." Thinking of Youquan, a trace of gentleness unconsciously appeared on Qian Renxue's cold face.

"Is it only because some of her experiences are similar to yours, Young Mistress?" Thinking of Qian Renxue's past, Stingray Douluo, like all the worshippers, could not help feeling a little heartache.

"Not only because of that, but because of the Angel God's guidance." Xue Qinghe answered as she looked toward the Worship Hall.

Seeing Stingray Douluo's shocked expression.

Qian Renxue explained once more, "Grandpa Stingray, don't worry. The great Angel God would never harm me."

"Since it is the Angel God's guidance, I will protect Miss Youquan well." Stingray Douluo made a solemn promise.

After completing her enrollment procedures, Youquan was led by Education Committee member Meng Shenji to the advanced class of Heaven Dou Royal Academy's junior division.

Although Youquan's martial soul was useless, she was already a level-15 Spirit Master. Moreover, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe had specifically ordered that she be treated well, so Meng Shenji placed Youquan in an advanced class of the junior academy.

Meng Shenji introduced the place to Youquan. "Miss Youquan, this is an advanced class in the junior academy. Although your Soul Power is high, His Highness the Crown Prince said that you do not know much about martial soul theory. Therefore, aside from attending classes, we hope you can come to the Education Committee after class. The three of us will take turns teaching you. You can also visit the library more often. If it is inconvenient for you to participate in practical exercises during class, you may take leave and continue studying theoretical knowledge."

"Alright, thank you, Education Committee member," Youquan said politely.

Though she had never attended an academy herself, she had heard Ziyan and Lin Yan endlessly recount the glorious deeds of her teacher at Jia Nan Academy.

Thus, Youquan was also full of anticipation for her upcoming academy life. However, she had not forgotten her foremost goal: to familiarize herself with this world as quickly as possible and find clues about the Bone Spirit Cold Flame soon.

Otherwise, if she could not even summon a flame, what kind of Alchemist was she?

"Alright, hurry in and attend class." Meng Shenji saw Youquan into the classroom.

When the instructor saw that Youquan had been personally brought over by Education Committee member Meng Shenji, he immediately adopted a respectful attitude and began to take her seriously.

After giving the instructor a few instructions, Meng Shenji bid Youquan farewell.

After briefly introducing herself, Youquan went to sit at the back of the classroom.

Elsewhere, a lavishly dressed young man surrounded by admirers carefully looked Youquan over, then curled his lips into an unreadable smile.

"Personally escorted here by Meng Shenji? Looks like she's one of my dear Crown Prince Brother's people. Then she'd better get lost sooner rather than later." A flash of viciousness crossed the richly dressed young man's eyes, but he quickly hid it and maintained his frivolous appearance.

Although the young man's movements were well concealed, they did not escape Youquan, whose soul perception was exceptionally sharp. Such hostility toward me the first time we meet. Looks like he's Crown Prince Brother's enemy. I'd like to see how you plan to deal with me.

However, after class, Youquan had already cast the man far from her mind. She fully unleashed her Soul Power and even used Explosive Step, racing toward the library at top speed.

To Youquan, quickly absorbing knowledge and finding the Bone Spirit Cold Flame as soon as possible were more important than anything else.

Xue Beng, who had been preparing to cause trouble for Youquan, stood there in bewilderment as he watched her swiftly departing back.

The days passed one by one, and before long, a month had gone by.

Because Youquan's soul power was strong and she spent every day reading in the library, she had not only passed the theoretical examination personally administered by the three Education Committee members, but had also nearly finished all the books in the library. She now had a deeper understanding of this world.

Youquan had just finished her theoretical examination and was eagerly preparing to find Xue Qinghe. She also planned to buy some gifts to visit Sister Shuang and Yanyan, whom she had not seen in a long time.

"Classmate Youquan, where are you rushing off to?" A frivolous and ill-intentioned male voice came from behind Youquan.

Youquan frowned and looked over. After thinking for a moment, she recognized him as that show-off who had harbored ill intentions toward her on her first day.

"How dare you! A lowly commoner like you dares not salute when you see His Highness the Prince?" Another equally lavishly dressed show-off shrieked as he pointed at Youquan and cursed.

"Don't say that. We're all classmates." The boy called a prince pretended to stop the lackey beside him.

"Classmate Youquan, I am the Fourth Prince of Heaven Dou, Xue Beng. As your classmate, I came specially to show concern. Why have you never attended practical classes?" Xue Beng produced a fan from who knew where and affectedly held it before his mouth, looking as though he wanted to speak but hesitated.

"What does it have to do with you? What the hell are you?" Youquan replied coldly. Her sister's enemy was her enemy. He was merely a prince. Back when she had been the leader of the Tianfu Alliance, not to mention princes and princesses, even emperors and empresses had to respectfully bow and greet her.

"Impudent!" Xue Beng's lackey roared angrily. Without waiting for Xue Beng to say anything, he immediately used Martial Soul Possession and charged at Youquan with a clenched fist.

Youquan sneered, sidestepped the lackey's attack, and clenched her right fist. "Eight Extremities Collapse."

Her punch landed squarely on the lackey's chest. He was sent flying backward like a kite with its string cut, vomiting blood as he flew.

"What?!" Xue Beng and the others stared in shock at what had happened. Even the fan in Xue Beng's hand fell to the ground.

"A mere lackey. What exactly were you trying to do to me?" Youquan asked with a cold smile.

Xue Beng's expression darkened. "What audacity. You attacked without permission in the academy and even beat up a fellow student. You should be expelled! As a prince, I formally notify you that you have been expelled from the academy! Everyone, attack! Teach this ignorant little bastard, who knows neither the immensity of heaven and earth nor the difference between high and low, an unforgettable lesson!"

Xue Beng thought viciously, So what if she's a genius? With so many of us, can we not beat one little girl? Besides, we even have upperclassmen among us. We absolutely cannot let Crown Prince Xue Qinghe gain another talented ally. It would be best if she died. At most, Father Emperor will scold me a few times. She's only a commoner anyway.

Youquan merely sneered. As she was now, unless someone was a Soul Emperor or stronger, they had no ability to hurt her. It was even more impossible for a Soul Elder or below to defeat her. Besides, the strongest among this group was only a Soul Grandmaster.

Before Youquan could make a move, a cold female voice stopped everyone in their tracks.

"Stop! Xue Beng, you're bullying people again. Be careful, or I'll tell the Education Committee!"

Youquan saw a girl with dark green hair appear behind Xue Beng and the others. Six people stood behind her as well.

However, Youquan noticed the green-haired girl at first glance. It was not only because she had stopped the people who were about to attack and had, in a sense, helped her, but also because of the toxins saturating her entire body.
