Chapter 64: Wish Fulfilled, the Fight Starts, Against Dai Mubai

But now the conditions are favorable.

Shilaike Academy actually has a number of aged Soul Beast Corpses, and there are also plenty of medicinal herbs.

Although the academy doesn't have much money, Fulangde Boss's purse looks rather fat.

To train his disciples, Master can only become somewhat shameless.

Master lifted two large bowls and scooped several big ladles from the pot that constantly emitted a meaty aroma.

He also gave the two some eggs and steamed buns.

Without much idle talk, when growing the body you need ample food for nutrition; you must never neglect the stomach—he had already told Xiao Xian and Tang San this.

The two silently began eating, and soon a warm feeling spread throughout their bodies.

Xiao Jue was the same, summoned by Xiao Xian from the rooftop far away back to the Shi Tang.

Previously, Teacher Shao Xin's habit was to arrange food for the trainees first, then get something for Xiao Jue to eat.

Now, in the Shi Tang corner, the familiar old spot, a large steaming plate of food had already been set out.

"Wow, so fragrant!"

Just as Xiao Xian and Tang San finished eating, Xiao Wu's lively voice came in from the Shi Tang doorway.

She was also pulling Ning Rongrong along.

Master dislikes tardiness; as Tang San's sister and a good friend of the annoying Xiao Xian, over the years she has some understanding of Master.

"Master, good morning," Xiao Wu bowed respectfully.

Tang San respects his teacher greatly; as a roommate in the same dorm, she knows that well.

Master nodded toward Xiao Wu, his face as stiff as always; apart from Xiao Xian and Tang San, few have seen him smile.

Ning Rongrong was half-asleep, but the rich aroma gradually woke her.

The two quickly began eating happily.

In the past few days, Shrek's meals weren't the worst, but they weren't any better either.

Back then, what they ate was worse than a dog's.

But now, it's much better!

Thinking that, Ning Rongrong subconsciously glanced at Xiao Jue in the corner, who was also wolfing down food.

When she saw clearly the food on Xiao Jue's plate.

Alright, it's still not as good as a dog's.

Xiao Jue's food was actually more abundant than before!

"So this is the monthly ninety Gold Soul Coin meal allowance..."

"I can have it too!"

Ning Rongrong mumbled while eating.

"Xiao San, go call Oscar and the others," Xiao Xian said calmly, rinsing his mouth and picking his teeth.

Tang San snapped awake. Indeed, his teacher's temper is unbending and extremely fierce. For the morning breakfast and the subsequent gathering, it's best that no one is late.

Tang San, stepping with Violent Step, quickly informed each remaining trainee.

When he left the Shi Tang, Xiao Wu pursed her lips and said to Xiao Xian, "You annoying ghost, why didn't you go?"

Xiao Xian leaned against the chair and smiled calmly, "What? Feeling sorry for your brother?"

"...?!" Xiao Wu was startled, instantly embarrassed and angry, brandishing her claws, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Ning Rongrong instantly gave a gossiping look, with a melon‑eating expression.

Before she had only teased Xiao Wu unilaterally, but now she could enjoy the live drama.

Xiao Xian was unperturbed, resting quietly, conserving his energy.

Later they still have to fight.

According to the teacher, they have to beat all of them up hard.

Master still took out several large bowls, preparing in advance; seeing this scene, he shook his head helplessly.

The relationship between his two disciples and this little girl is very complicated.

It's just...

Master suddenly thought of something, a bitter feeling rising in his heart.

He hopes they won't repeat the mistake of him and Fulangde Boss.

Through Tang San's effort, everyone got this breakfast, even Oscar, the trainee who never ate breakfast in the Shi Tang, as well.

Everyone who ate breakfast praised it endlessly.

It's not about saving face for Master; the previous meals were just too ordinary.

For those three senior trainees, after Xiao Xian arrived—perhaps because he deducted Xiao Jue's rations—the Shi Tang meals improved a bit; before they were even harder to eat.

"..."

Half an hour later, the familiar bell rang.

It was time for everyone to gather again.

Warm sunlight fell on each person.

Master stood on the playground, quietly looking at the eight trainees; today he was the only teacher, and Fulangde said to let him take full responsibility, naturally granting him decisive authority.

However, Fulangde was not without attention.

He stood by the window of his residence, silently gazing this way.

"..."

"For tomorrow's breakfast, I want to see you even earlier. I will have the breakfast ready at dawn; if you haven't come within half an hour, you don't need to eat," Master's voice was cold; among the trainees there were troublemakers, and he could tell some hadn't listened, but he didn't care.

"Dai Mubai, step forward," Master said, looking at Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai decisively stepped forward.

During class, out of respect for Fulangde, he is always a good student; any teacher's words are absolute commands to him.

Master continued calmly, "Yesterday you suggested that within Black Robe Internal, strength is paramount and the Ranking is not fixed."

"Now, this is your Black Robe Internal's first Ranking."

"Since you proposed it, naturally you start."

"Dean Fulangde and I have devised complex rules—a Points System—where, besides absolute strength, training completion also matters."

"But for the first Ranking, it need not be so complicated."

"Only strength matters."

"There are seven people behind you; defeat one, earn one point."

"Rank according to the points earned."

"If you want the number one spot, choose your first opponent."

Dai Mubai's sinister eyes flashed, his right fist slammed toward his left palm, and he grew excited.

He turned his head to the rear, and his gaze immediately fell on Xiao Xian.

A few months ago, Xiao Xian broke through to Soul Elder, and he had made a pact with him to fight.

He didn't expect it to be delayed this long.

But it's not too late!

Heibao Yihau is mine!

"Xiao Xian, step forward," Master's voice rang again.

Xiao Xian stepped forward a step, standing beside Dai Mubai.

Master said calmly, "It seems Dai Mubai chose you."

"Then, begin."

Everyone quickly retreated toward the back, Master included.

Soul Elder is no longer weak; soul power erupts, and the aura can even be considered formidable.

Being close makes it easy to be accidentally injured.

……

The two stood apart, fixed.

Dai Mubai stared at Xiao Xian, his sinister eyes gradually reddening.

The trainees of Shilaike Academy, though all monsters, are the only ones that make him wary so far, and that is only Xiao Xian.

"Xiao Xian, be careful."

Dai Mubai's muscles tensed completely, like a mountain tiger poised to descend.

Xiao Xian nodded calmly, flicked his right hand, soul power landed on the ground, and Xiao Jue suddenly appeared before him.

I'll blast you; then you won't have to waste time training.

Xiao Jue's gaze was fierce as she stared at Dai Mubai, her teeth silently bared.

……
