Soon, class ended.
Wang Dahua said flatly, "Xiao Fan, come to my office."
Xiao Fan hurried forward.
No sooner had he left than Liu Rushi walked over to Lin Xianhuo.
"Classmate Lin, are you really at the ninth layer of the Martial Warrior realm?"
"I don't believe it, unless you come fight a battle with me tonight!"
As he spoke, Liu Rushi's lips curled wildly upward.
"I'm from the Liu Family, the greatest family in Green Leaf City. I'm definitely worthy of your beautiful face!"
He was so excited. He hadn't expected to meet such a gorgeous woman on the first day of school. He had to get her!
The people around them sighed and lamented, thinking they had no chance.
How could they compete with the second young master of the Liu Family, the greatest family in Green Leaf City?
To their surprise, Lin Xianhuo glanced at Liu Rushi, rose without a word, and slapped him hard.
Liu Rushi raised a hand to block her in disdain.
Then.
Bang!
He thought he could block it, but how could he withstand Lin Xianhuo's strength? The slap sent him flying into the desks and chairs.
Lin Xianhuo couldn't even be bothered to mock him. She walked straight out of the classroom.
Everyone was stunned. Even Liu Rushi was stunned.
"Fuck!"
"You bitch, how dare you hit me!"
"You're dead!!"
The other students stood to the side, silently mourning for Lin Xianhuo.
If Lin Xianhuo didn't have an incredibly powerful background, she was in trouble.
The Liu Family was the greatest family in Green Leaf City and was immensely wealthy. Moreover, Liu Rushi's older brother had been admitted to Jialuo Academy, ranked third among martial arts academies in the Divine Fire Empire, three years ago. His strength had advanced by leaps and bounds over those three years. He had returned home in recent days to visit the family elders and was now in Green Leaf City.
He doted on his younger brother Liu Rushi. When the time came, wouldn't Liu Rushi need only say the word to get even?
Lin Xianhuo knew nothing about this, and she wouldn't have cared if she had.
The greatest family in Green Leaf City? They probably didn't even count as clay chickens and pottery dogs.
She arrived at the office door and stood there, quietly waiting for Xiao Fan.
Some things were hard to say in class, but who could have expected the homeroom teacher to call this guy away as soon as it ended?
Lin Xianhuo activated the Heavenly Ear technique, piercing the office's soundproofing barrier to eavesdrop on what was happening inside.
In the office, Wang Dahua sighed and said, "Xiao Fan, you're actually very smart."
"Your grades in the humanities are good. As long as you put in some effort, you can still get into a humanities university."
Xiao Fan smiled sheepishly. "Don't worry, Old Wang. I'll work hard. My grades haven't slipped, have they?"
"My theory grades will definitely be high enough!"
Hearing this, Lin Xianhuo's heart skipped a beat.
A humanities university? He's not following the martial path? Is he really not the Dog King?
She kept listening.
Wang Dahua said earnestly, "Even so, you need to be careful. Don't keep skipping class, or you won't have enough class participation points."
Xiao Fan felt helpless. Wasn't he doing it to cultivate? Otherwise, who would want to stay on Beast Mountain day and night, doing work that could cost them their life at any moment?
Ugh, looks like I'll have to find another way to get techniques.
He smiled. "Don't worry, Old Wang. I won't skip any more classes this semester."
Wang Dahua nodded. "Mm, good. The last thing I want to tell you is... stay away from classmate Lin."
"She has an enormously powerful background. You can't afford to offend her."
"And don't even think about getting romantically involved with classmate Lin. This isn't the time for you to be pursuing romance!"
"Although classmate Lin is very pretty, but..."
"Ahem, Old Wang, you're worrying too much." Xiao Fan grinned. "Forgive me for being blunt, but I'm really not interested in flat-chested girls."
Wang Dahua scolded him. "You can't talk about your classmate like that! She's your deskmate, too! How awful would it be if she heard you?"
"Oh, she probably isn't that much of a freak. She wouldn't hide outside the office door and eavesdrop on us. Don't worry!"
Outside the door, veins bulged on Lin Xianhuo's forehead. Her fists clenched tight, and fury burned inside her!
She would never forget those words, "flat-chested," even in death! Or that infuriatingly obnoxious way of speaking!
Xiao Fan, you're that beast, the Dog King!
At last, the conversation ended.
Xiao Fan walked out of the office, humming a tune.
The moment he opened the door.
Their eyes met. Xiao Fan clearly saw the overwhelming killing intent on Lin Xianhuo's breathtakingly beautiful face!
Without hesitation, he turned and walked away!
Lin Xianhuo hurried after him!
But then, something completely unexpected happened.
Bang!
Xiao Fan had just turned around when he bumped into someone's chest!
All the students nearby whipped their heads around. Fury surged in their eyes, and like hungry wolves, they looked ready to tear Xiao Fan apart alive.
Because the chest Xiao Fan had bumped into belonged to Shao Yan, the homeroom teacher of senior year's Class Two.
Shao Yan had an incredibly hot figure and loved wearing white shirts, the tight kind that looked ready to burst open at any moment.
There was also her signature black hip-hugging skirt and dark red high heels. Her long legs, with their astonishing proportions, could always draw every man's gaze!
Shao Yan and Wang Dahua were practically polar opposites.
The students of Class One dreamed of having Shao Yan as their homeroom teacher one day. If they could look at that perfect figure every day, even their dreams at night would be more enjoyable.
But the person everyone hated most was always Xiao Fan!
Xiao Fan kept a very low profile and had no presence whatsoever. Normally, no one would bother mocking someone so invisible!
But Shao Yan seemed to like Xiao Fan. She was always ice-cold toward the other students, yet burning with warmth toward him. It drove everyone furious.
"Xiao Fan, how could you be so careless?" Shao Yan's gentle voice rang out.
Xiao Fan quickly pulled his head back and smiled sheepishly. "I... I'm sorry, Teacher Shao. I didn't notice you. Sorry, sorry, I'll be going now."
With that, Xiao Fan tried to go around Shao Yan.
This made all the students furious again. Anyone with eyes could see that Teacher Shao Yan was throwing herself at Xiao Fan, yet Xiao Fan always seemed to find it a bother to say even one more word to her. It was as if the woman of their dreams were an evil ghost in his eyes.
Shao Yan wasn't angry. She suddenly raised a hand, hooked it around the back of Xiao Fan's collar, and said with a smile, "Little Xiao Fan, how have you been thinking over the arrangement I mentioned before?"
Xiao Fan sighed.
Late one night, Shao Yan had drunk too much and was surrounded by a group of thugs. Xiao Fan had happened to pass by on his way home from hunting and saved her.
Then, through a combination of circumstances, Shao Yan became the first person to learn that the Dog King was Xiao Fan.
That night, she had been too shocked to speak.
The next day, she suddenly came to him and asked him to apply to a martial arts university. She also said she had a way to get him into the best one in the entire Federation, called Emperor One Academy.
She said, "With your strength, getting into Emperor One University will be a breeze. Don't worry. With me around, no one will hurt you because you're special!"
She also wanted him to choose a mentor surnamed Shao.
Xiao Fan firmly refused.
Xiao Fan wasn't doing it. First, he didn't believe Shao Yan could really stop the military from dissecting him.
Second, he had a system. The sky was high enough for fish to leap, and the sea wide enough for birds to fly.
If he really did as Shao Yan said, wouldn't he be tied down when the time came?
Xiao Fan would never allow anyone to restrict his freedom!
"I'll think about it some more," Xiao Fan said. "Teacher Shao, I need to get back to studying."
Shao Yan immediately wilted. "Hmph, little Xiao Fan, sooner or later I'll have you wrapped around my finger!"
Xiao Fan's scalp tingled, and he hurriedly slipped away.
Suddenly, she turned to look at Lin Xianhuo and raised an eyebrow. "Oh, who would've thought? Xiao Fan's already in a relationship?"
"It's just that this little girl seems to be a bit underdeveloped..."
