Chapter 111 - 111 Fist Is Law, Strength Is King!
111 Fist Is Law, Strength Is King!
Looking at the four of them happily, Zhao Yunyan suddenly felt that he was a little extra.
“Then…”
Zhao Yunyan hesitated with a disappointed expression and said, “Since you guys know each other, I won’t disturb you… Wang Xiao, if you need any help, come to Class E to look for me.”
“Alright, you can come to me if you need anything.”
Wang Xiao immediately nodded and replied. These words came from the bottom of his heart. Although he had only interacted with Zhao Yunyan for more than ten minutes, he really felt that this person was not bad.
After Zhao Yunyan left, Yi Han asked again, “Idol, which class are you from?”
“I was originally in Class B, but I want to change classes now.”
Wang Xiao casually replied and did not mention what had just happened. “Which class are you in?”
“I’m Class A.”
Yi Han immediately replied and pointed at Xu Junrou. “She’s from Class C.”
“You two aren’t in the same class?”
Wang Xiao was really a little surprised this time. “The schedule of every class is different. The two of you are inseparable every day. I thought you were in the same class!”
“The curriculum is indeed different, but our situation is a little special.”
Xu Junrou explained with a smile, “Yi Han is the key cultivation target of the academy. Compared to textbooks, it’s more important to accumulate experience and resources as soon as possible. Therefore, he almost doesn’t have to go to class usually. Moreover, he needs to stay close to me, so I also benefited.”
“I see…”
Zhou Xiruo nodded with a shocked expression. She had a deeper understanding of the style of the Yuheng Academy.
In order to increase their combat strength, students with potential could even skip classes. This was almost unimaginable in the Kaiyang Academy.
Zhou Xiruo even felt that this place was more like a training camp for young lords than an academy for teaching.
Fist was law and strength was king. As long as one was strong enough, they could override all rules!
Although it sounded a little cruel and unreasonable, Zhou Xiruo felt a little excited. What she needed the most now was to increase her strength. Yuheng Academy was undoubtedly the most suitable place!
On the other side, Wang Xiao was also shocked by this strange rule. However, he did not think as much as Zhou Xiruo, because his attention was all on something else.
Including the previous time in the [Mist Rainforest], this was the second time Xu Junrou had said that Yi Han needed to be with her. Moreover, from her tone, she seemed to be a little helpless.
If Xu Junrou was powerful, it was understandable for Yi Han to follow her all day. However, the situation of these two people was the opposite.
After all, Yi Han was an [Element Overlord] that was rarely seen in a hundred or even a thousand years and Xu Junrou could barely be considered a mid-level [Alchemist]. Therefore, Wang Xiao really could not understand the reason for this arrangement.
Moreover, Yi Han and Xu Junrou did not have a vassal relationship. Their interactions also did not seem like that of a couple.
In an instant, Wang Xiao had already thought of seven to eight possibilities, but none of them could answer the doubts in his heart.
“Student Xu, can I ask you a question?”
After being puzzled for a long time, Wang Xiao simply asked, “You always said that Yi Han has to be with you. What’s your relationship?”
“We—”
Yi Han was about to speak when Xu Junrou suddenly interrupted, “This is a secret between us. Don’t ask so much—don’t you want to change classes? Let’s go! I’ll bring you to the academy head!”
With that, Xu Junrou pulled Yi Han to the front and led the way.
Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo looked at each other and knew that there was definitely something wrong with their relationship. However, Xu Junrou had already officially expressed her stance, so they could not ask further.
When they arrived at the academy head’s office, they saw the academy head of the Yuheng Academy. The other party was a middle-aged man with a sinister expression. Just sitting there made one feel that he was not to be trifled with, especially his thin cheeks and hooked nose. He looked even more ruthless.
However, Xu Junrou did not seem to care at all. As soon as she entered, she said with a smile, “Academy Head, these two are transfer students who came today. I think they have quite a lot of potential, so I want to apply for them to team up with Yi Han and me…”
At this point, Xu Junrou suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Wang Xiao. “You previously said that you wanted me to cooperate with Student Zhou, but I rejected you because we were in different academies. You transferred to Yuheng this time for this matter, right?”
“Huh?”
Wang Xiao was stunned by Xu Junrou’s swift and decisive actions. He reacted and nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s because of this.”
“That’s good!”
Xu Junrou nodded and looked at the academy head who had yet to speak. “Then it’s settled. I’ll bring them to the assessment first. Hurry up and approve the application!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Junrou pulled Yi Han away again, leaving Wang Xiao, Zhou Xiruo, and the academy head looking at each other awkwardly.
“Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo, right?”
The academy head squeezed out a forced smile. “Xiao Rou tends to be a little impatient. You’ll get used to it… Quickly follow her to the assessment. I’ll handle the procedures.”
Wang Xiao was stunned again when he heard this. He did not expect the academy head, who looked like he was not to be trifled with, to actually be so easy-going.
“What’s going on with Yuheng Academy? Why are there so many strange people?”
Wang Xiao muttered in his heart and thanked the academy head before turning to leave.
After leaving the academy head’s office, he saw Xu Junrou and Yi Han waiting in the distance. Xu Junrou even waved desperately for them to hurry over.
Just as he approached, before Wang Xiao could open his mouth, Xu Junrou asked softly, “How is it? Did the academy head flare up after I left?”
Wang Xiao shook his head. Only then did Xu Junrou heave a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said with lingering fear, “That’s good! That’s good! The academy head is too scary. I didn’t dare to stay there for long. I was really scared to death just now!”
“…You didn’t seem afraid just now.”
Wang Xiao teased softly and changed the topic. “What’s the assessment you mentioned just now? Where is the assessment?”
“It’s the potential assessment.”
Xu Junrou explained simply, “It’s just some small tests. The teacher in charge will evaluate your potential according to your performance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Han said from the side, “You don’t have to be nervous. The assessment is actually very simple. The [construction lord] itself is a talent with extreme potential. As for Idol—”
As Yi Han spoke, he looked at Wang Xiao and did not hide the envy on his face. “You have so many powerful mutated beasts. You can easily pass with just one of them!”
Zhou Xiruo immediately relaxed a lot when she heard this, but Wang Xiao revealed a suspicious expression.
After passing the assessment, he did not have to go to class. He could also save time to accumulate experience and resources. If it was really as simple as Yi Han said, it would not be so exaggerated to the point where everyone in the school would pass…. However, there would definitely not be many people showing up to class in the first three classes.
However, when Wang Xiao went to Class B just now, there were only a few empty seats.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes and stared at Yi Han. “How many people from the Yuheng Academy have passed the assessment?”
“Well…”
Yi Han’s expression became subtle. A moment later, he silently stretched out his hand and made a “six”.
“Sixty?”
“…Six.”
