Chapter 1108

As her voice fell,

Hua Qianshuang and Li Yao turned their heads sharply.

"They're here!"

Xue Jiulan and Lu Zai were a beat slower,

but they also sensed that several Seventh Advancement practitioners were rushing toward them from behind.

A cold wind blew.

In the blink of an eye,

Hua Qianshuang, wearing an ice crystal crown and an ice crystal robe,

spoke quickly:

"I'll go stop them. Li Yao, you, your teacher, and General Lu Zai, do everything possible to destroy this barrier."

"I believe you have a way!"

"I'll try my best to hold them off!"

Hua Qianshuang didn't give Li Yao a chance to speak, riding an ice crystal petal as she flew toward the rear.

"No! I'm going too!"

Xue Jiulan's hands ignited with flames, and she was about to rush over, but Li Yao reached out and stopped her.

"Teacher, let me go."

"I'm confident I can retreat unscathed."

"I..." Xue Jiulan just wanted to retort, but she found Li Yao's hand was frighteningly strong. She looked up.

Looking at this youth who had easily stopped her, his face filled with confidence,

she realized he was truly confident he could retreat unscathed from such a situation.

Xue Jiulan's eyes were slightly dazed.

In an instant, she seemed to think of many things.

The first time they met

was when Li Yao came out of the Tower of Heaven,

with a little bug hiding its form and possessing twenty thousand strength attribute beside him.

Even then, Li Yao was so excellent that she wanted to take him as a student the moment she saw him.

The second time they met

was on that flying ship during the Top Ten Contest.

A Fifth Advancement practitioner from the Yang family wanted to attack Li Yao.

She knew very well at the time

that Li Yao, only at the Second Advancement, had the ability to resolve that crisis.

But daring to attack her hand-picked student right under her nose...

She still stepped in to help him settle it.

The third time they met

was after the contest ended, when Li Yao displayed shocking combat power, killing a Named-grade monster while being lower-leveled.

Not to say there were no successors, but it was definitely unprecedented!

After that, he became a student at Jingyu Academy, truly becoming her student.

She wasn't good at teaching and hadn't even taken students before.

This time, she took two:

Li Yao and Qin Xuejun.

She had been troubled for a while,

but fortunately, Li Yao was promising, skipping basic teaching and becoming strong enough to touch upon 'Momentum' cultivation as soon as he enrolled.

So every night, she used a chessboard item to teach Li Yao 'Momentum'.

Li Yao's talent once made her feel good about herself:

"I am a teaching genius!"

"Look! With me, Li Yao's 'Momentum' cultivation is progressing so fast!"

This was what she said most often to the old principal in those days.

After that,

Li Yao entered the Abyss and lost contact.

Everyone was worried about Li Yao's safety,

and she was no exception.

But unlike others,

she knew Li Yao's combat power.

She wasn't worried that Li Yao couldn't defeat those Abyss monsters, but that Li Yao couldn't find a way back from the Abyss!

Then came the Linbei battlefield,

with the Titan Clan pressing in.

Li Yao suddenly appeared, suppressing the Titan Clan's True Name-grade prodigy, the Fourth Seat of the New Talent Group.

Third Advancement mission,

entering the Titan territory.

At that time, Li Yao

was in a sorry state facing a Sixth Advancement Lord-grade monster,

and even running away seemed extremely difficult.

But she knew very well

that the gap between Sixth Advancement and before Sixth Advancement was like a chasm!

At Li Yao's level then, being able to do this was already extremely incredible!

After that,

it was the Insect Mother battlefield, where they joined forces to kill the Demon Insect Mother!

When Li Yao told her to activate her invincibility skill,

she was still a bit dismissive,

thinking, how high could a brat's skill damage be that she needed to activate an invincibility skill?

But when that rotating purple stream of light attacked,

she only had one thought at the time:

Damn it!

Good thing I listened to that brat!

Later, it was the border trial.

When Li Yao came out of the rift,

she had a feeling

that she could no longer see through Li Yao at all.

So when Li Yao said he wanted to deal with Nevis, she persuaded Qin Shiguo to let Li Yao go ahead and do it.

Li Yao killed Nevis,

and she was as shocked as everyone else,

but having had expectations in her heart, she quickly regained her composure.

Until now,

Li Yao just reached out and stopped her.

Xue Jiulan realized

that her student

had completely surpassed her.
