One hour later, in the small woods behind the academy, two groups of people stood in opposition.
One group was the working students led by Xiao Wu and Chu Chengzhou, and the other was the second-generation Nuoding City youths led by Xiao Chenyu.
“Xiao Chenyu, Spirit: Wolf, Rank 11 Battle Spirit Master, which one of you is coming?”
Seeing that the working students had all arrived, and that Chu Chengzhou had also come, a green light shone on Xiao Chenyu’s body.
His muscles began to swell, his eyes gradually turned light green, his arms transformed into sharp claws, and a white spirit ring bloomed.
“Pfft~, a white spirit ring?
Xiao Chenyu, are you sure you’re the biological son of your City Lord father?”
Seeing the white first spirit ring blooming on the confident Xiao Chenyu, Chu Chengzhou almost spat out the lunch he had just eaten.
It seemed that in the original story, this kid had a white first spirit ring.
Originally, Chu Chengzhou thought that with himself as a little butterfly, Xiao Chenyu might be able to change his fate, but he never expected that he would still walk the old path of the original story.
A white first spirit ring is the standard configuration for Spirit Masters from commoner backgrounds.
And if one’s talent is decent, and one can Cultivate to Rank 10 Quasi-Spirit Master before graduating from the Elementary Spirit Master Academy, one can obtain a hundred-year first spirit ring through the Hunter Soul Forest action specially prepared by the academy during the graduation season.
Although the academy generally does not specially take care of any particular student, it is not certain that one can find a Spirit Beast suitable for one’s own Spirit, and the age of the hundred-year spirit ring hunted is unlikely to reach the optimal level.
But generally speaking, students who can Cultivate to Rank 10 Soul Power before graduation can basically obtain a hundred-year spirit ring.
The reason why there are many Spirit Masters on the continent with only a white ten-year first spirit ring is mostly because their talent is insufficient, they failed to become a one-ring Spirit Master before graduating from the Elementary Spirit Master Academy, and they did not meet the admission qualifications for the Intermediate Spirit Master Academy, so they did not have academy teachers to lead them to the Soul Beast Forest to hunt Spirit Beasts.
Although Nuoding City is a remote Minor Achievement, Xiao Chenyu is at least a second-generation noble, and he has a City Lord father.
Chu Chengzhou couldn’t figure out why his first spirit ring was only a white ten-year spirit ring.
Could it be that the power of the Nuoding City Lord’s Mansion is not enough to hunt a hundred-year Spirit Beast?
This is obviously impossible!
Even Yu Xiaogang, who only has Rank 29 Soul Power and can only fart, dared to take Tang San to the Hunter Soul Forest to hunt a hundred-year Spirit Beast.
There is no reason why Xiao Chenyu’s City Lord father, who has the strength of a three-ring Spirit Elder, would not have the ability to hunt a hundred-year Spirit Beast for him!
Chu Chengzhou had to suspect that Xiao Chenyu was picked up by his City Lord father on the side of the road, or that his mother died early and his City Lord father married a stepmother for him?
“Nonsense!
My father’s Spirit is also a Wolf!”
Xiao Chenyu immediately retorted.
“Then did your City Lord father marry a stepmother for you?
Otherwise, why do you only have a white spirit ring?”
“Damn it~!”
Having been poked in his sore spot, Xiao Chenyu was grinding his teeth in hatred.
Although the facts were different from what Chu Chengzhou said, it was about the same.
It wasn’t that his City Lord father married a stepmother for him, but that his mother was a concubine of his City Lord father, and his talent to Cultivate was also ordinary, so he was not valued in the Xiao family.
Coupled with the suppression by his legitimate brothers, this led to the fact that no one in the City Lord’s Mansion hunted a hundred-year spirit ring for him, and they even forbade him from obtaining a hundred-year first spirit ring, lest his wings harden in the future and affect the interests of his legitimate brothers.
“Hmph~, stop talking nonsense, which one of you is coming?!”
With a cold snort, Xiao Chenyu changed the subject.
The more he said, the more embarrassed he became, so it was better to just start fighting.
“Go, Xiao Wu, I choose you!”
Chu Chengzhou pointed at Xiao Chenyu, who was already ready on the field, and patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder.
Xiao Wu: “…”
“I always feel like you are implying something!”
Eating someone’s food makes one’s mouth soft, and taking someone’s things makes one’s hands soft; this saying describes Xiao Wu right now.
Having eaten the lunch treated by Chu Chengzhou, and having to sleep on the bedding borrowed from Chu Chengzhou at night, plus the fact that she was already unhappy with Xiao Chenyu wanting to make her a pet rabbit, Xiao Wu naturally did not refuse.
“Hmm?
What are you guys playing at?”
Seeing that the one who came on stage was the new rabbit-eared little loli among the working students, Xiao Chenyu couldn’t help but frown.
Shouldn’t the strongest among the working students be Chu Chengzhou?
He had fought with Chu Chengzhou last semester.
Although he didn’t know what Chu Chengzhou’s specific Soul Power Rank was, he knew that in terms of physical fitness, Chu Chengzhou, who was several years younger than him, was really not much worse than him.
Of course, that was then.
Now he is already a one-ring Spirit Master.
Even if the first spirit ring is only a white ten-year spirit ring, his physical fitness has still improved significantly.
And what is most important for a Spirit Master is the Spirit Ability.
A little trash like Chu Chengzhou who isn’t even a formal Spirit Master, wouldn’t he be killed by him in one move?
“Playing at?
Hehe~, you don’t know yet, do you?
I, Sister Xiao Wu, am the strongest in the academy!”
Lifting her head and snorting, Xiao Wu said with a smug look on her face.
As she spoke, the light of Soul Power on Xiao Wu’s body lit up, her Soft Bones Rabbit Spirit possessed her, and a circle of bright yellow spirit ring bloomed.
She heard from Wang Sheng and the others that this Xiao Chenyu was the new boss in the academy.
But this new boss is only a Rank 11 white-ring Spirit Master, so Sister Xiao Wu, who has a hundred-year spirit ring, is naturally the strongest student among the six grades of the academy.
“Hiss~, a hundred-year spirit ring?!”
Xiao Chenyu gasped.
This rabbit-eared little loli is actually a one-ring Spirit Master?
And she even has a hundred-year spirit ring that even he, the City Lord’s son—uh, the City Lord’s son born to a concubine—could not possess?
And that’s not the point.
The age of a first-year student is only six or seven years old.
To become a formal Spirit Master at such an age, what must her Innate Soul Power Rank be?
Good heavens~, could it be that she is a Young Miss from some Spirit Master family who came to a small place like Nuoding City to experience life?
“Misunderstanding, misunderstanding~, little girl—no, Sister Xiao Wu, it’s a misunderstanding!”
After the shock, seeing that Xiao Wu had the posture to make a move, Xiao Chenyu hurriedly changed his words and shouted that it was a misunderstanding, succumbing to his fear.
It is true that he is arrogant, but that does not mean he has no brain.
He is very clear about who can be provoked and who cannot.
The waters of the continent are very deep.
Perhaps some people can handle it, but it is definitely not something that a small son of a City Lord’s concubine like him can handle.
“Misunderstanding my ass!
Take this!”
Xiao Chenyu admitted defeat, but Xiao Wu would not let him go just because of a word of misunderstanding.
He had previously kept saying that he wanted to make Sister Xiao Wu a pet rabbit; how could she endure that?
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Wu was like an arrow leaving the bow, rushing to Xiao Chenyu’s front with lightning speed.
Before Xiao Chenyu could react, her right leg had already bent at the knee, her toes instantly flicked out, and she kicked straight at Xiao Chenyu’s chin.
“Bang—!”
Xiao Chenyu only felt his eyes blur, a sharp pain came from his chin, his head tilted back, and his whole body flew into the air.
After one leg kick, Xiao Wu did not forgive him when she had the advantage.
She jumped into the air, hooked her right leg around Xiao Chenyu’s neck, and then threw him down fiercely.
Only hearing a “Boom—”, the ground trembled slightly, and Xiao Chenyu, seeing stars, fell heavily onto the grass.
