Chapter 22: That Incident

Xiao Ran went back to his School and bought some chocolates along the way while humming softly which clearly indicates that he was currently happy. This happiness last quite long as even though he was in the School Canteen eating alone and yet he was humming happily which makes the nearby students looks at him strangely.

"Hey Gu Yue, I've bought you some chocolates."

Xiao Ran cheerfully entered their dorm but noticed that Gu Yue wasn't inside which instantly baffled him as this was the first time that Gu Yue wasn't at their dorm this late at night.

Although confused Xiao Ran still put the chocolates at the table and wrote a letter for Gu Yue as he would be heading out for a while and train.

Eat, study, Class Promotion Tournament.

The days flew by quickly. Tang Wulin's trio had begun to be pointed out of the crowd countless times throughout the day. Naturally, this was because of the events at the entrance gates the day before.

In the match after school with the first grade's class two, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue hadn't expended too much strength. Only one of their opponents had a hundred year soul ring, and when faced with the coordination of Tang Wulin's trio, they were completely helpless. Xie Xie was supported by Gu Yue's firepower and was easily able to defeat their opponents.

Three battles, three victories. With the addition of the outburst at the gates the day before, class five had become the focus of attention of the entire academy.

The crowd we're quite excited to watch the battle between class 5 and class 1 that would happen the other day as tomorrow would be a rest day for them while someone was quite unhappy and dissatisfied by this result.

Xiao Ran didn't have much time to join the trio and the only time they could ever see him would be at lunch. Gu Yue noticed something strange as Xiao Ran would always come home late when she was already asleep and yet still waking up before her after that night.

'Should I go with them? I think that Tang Wulin would go to Auction today to buy the things he needed to breakthrough but I can't help but have this feeling that I don't belong here. '

Xiao Ran began to doubt his purpose in this life and sighed while standing at the top of the school and gazing at the happy trio that was leaving in the School Campus.

In this moment Xiao Ran began to ponder on what course of action should he take as he knows that he can't be around them for too long as the plot would drastically change and the future he knows may be overwritten.

"In any case I finally figured out my second ability and it is quite special but I don't know if it will work with a human. I need more time to fully comprehend that ability and that woman why was she here? What really happened to the Gods Realm War? I know that things should have gone exactly the way it is as Tang Wulin is here and the Golden Dragon King resides within him. "

Xiao Ran had countless questions that kept popping within his minds and soon he was lost and deep within his thoughts throughout morning.

While the trio had already left the Auction house and this little trip wasn't a waste of time as Tang Wulin got some of the things he wanted and After they left the auction house, the trio headed back to the academy for lunch. It wasn't that they didn't want to have lunch outside the academy, but Tang Wulin's appetite was too amazing. He was reluctant to ask Xie Xie and Gu Yue to pay for a meal, so heading back to the academy to eat for free was the most cost-efficient decision.

"I'll be going to the forging workshop this afternoon. You guys should go back and train. Right, can you also go and collect information on class one? We have no knowledge about them," Tang Wulin said to Xie Xie.

Xie Xie knew about Tang Wulin's habit of going to the workshop every week during their rest day.

"Fine, you can go. Isn't it only class one? I can defeat them on my own," Xie Xie arrogantly declared.

"Aren't you afraid a huge gale might cut off that tongue of yours?" At that moment, a strange, cynical voice sounded. "Three little fish from class five, now that's what I call arrogance."

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue turned at the same time and found a few intermediate division students standing a short distance away, their ages similar to the trio's ages.

The person who spoke was a young boy with center-parted hair and good features. While his looks were good, he had thin lips, which coupled with his sarcastic comment, made it difficult for others to produce good will towards him.

Besides him, the others standing with him all had stoney expressions as they glared at the trio.

Xie Xie's expression turned cold as he pounded the table. Just as he was about to move towards them, Tang Wulin pulled Xie Xie back. He spoke to Xie Xie in a low voice, "We have already caused enough trouble for Teacher Wu. Can't you control yourself?"

Glaring icily, Xie Xie spoke out, "You guys must be from class one. After tomorrow, you'll simply be class two."

The eccentric boy laughed. "Good then! I want to see what kind of skill you guys have that will move us to class two." His eyes brightened as he spoke. He tensed, then his body suddenly grew a bit and seemed to become exceptionally soft. Two yellow rings appeared from beneath his feet as cyan scales emerged from his neck. His eyes turned into vertical slits.

"Two rings? A Soul Grandmaster?" Tang Wulin's trio were all startled. Even though their opponents were class one, they should have been of a similar level. They were all just nine years old after all! The fact that he was already a Soul Grandmaster was absolutely shocking.

Tang Wulin took a step forward to placed himself in front of Gu Yue and Xie Xie. Despite the powerful aura of the other party, Tang Wulin actually felt joyful. He didn't feel fearful at all.

A white soul ring rose from beneath his feet and Bluesilver Grass rushed out from his palms.

"Haha. Trash with only a single ten year soul ring dares to be so arrogant. This is just too funny. But you can be at ease; I won't put you guys in your place right now, I'll wait until we're on the competition stage before I do so. I'll let you know the difference between geniuses and trash. I am Wei Xiao Feng from first grade class one. Remember my name."

Having said this Wei Xiao Feng withdrew his soul power, causing his body to return to normal before turning around.

"Oh right, Tell that Xiao Ran to come back and enter the class as that event had passed already. "

This sentence instantly made them confused as they didn't understand what Wei Xiao Feng meant.

"What do you mean?"

Tang Wulin asked as Xie Xie and Gu Yue also have a confused looks as they never learned that incident.

Wei Xiao Feng looks at them like they we're some sort of idiot before realizing that maybe Xiao Ran hid the matter to them.

"HAHAHAHA, This is so funny!! I never thought that out of all the students in this Academy you three never learned about that incident. "

Wei Xiao Feng hysterically laugh while Tang Wulin and the others had a bad feeling about this.

" Alright, I guess your dear friend really value you all as he should have hid this matter to you all hoping you never learned about that incident. Well too bad for him cause right at this moment I'll tell you about that incident. "

" I know you never know this but actually Xiao Ran was popular in our class at the beginning of the semester as he is a spirit grandmaster. Many actually liked him thanks for his good looks and even some of the students in different class always come to our class hoping to befriend him yet that trash never spoke a single word them and even among us his classmate.That trash always had this proud look that we aren't worth of his time. "

Wei Xiao Feng spoke with anger but he suddenly smiled and looked at the trio.

"But to think that trash would rather hangout with you trashes from class 5 and so that idiot got what he deserves. Many we're dissatisfied by his actions and some even felt that you all aren't worthy for him to befriend with and yet I don't know how it happened but false rumours began to spread around the Academy about him to the point that he was isolated in our class. "

"There were some students had gone too far and trashed his table countless of time but that idiot never spoke a single thing nor fought back. I even suggested that he should stop hanging out with you three, as trashes only hangout with each other and maybe the incident about him would stop but that idiot didn't heed my advice and in the end his situation got worse day by day to the point that teachers was needed to stop that incident. "

Wei Xiao Feng spoke with enthusiasm while Tang Wulin and Xie Xie had only lowered their head but they were clenching their hands to the point that it was bleeding.
