Chapter 45: Golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass

The increase in Spiritual Power not only allowed Lan Xuanyu to be stronger in his control of the elements, but it also raised his sense of awareness. All he felt was a tightness around his hip, a strong sense of danger came and he raised his knee instinctively, blocking the heel of Ye Lingtong.

Bang! Lan Xuanyu flew up a meter because of this kick.

Ye Lingtong wouldnt spare him. She used the momentum from her attack earlier to deliver another kick meant to strike his chest.

Lan Xuanyu was helpless in midair and at this very moment, something Nana said to him surfaced in his head.

You must remember to put safety first no matter what. When there is danger threatening your safety, be sure to give it your all. You must not put yourself in danger just to hide the ability of your right hand.

Nana was especially stern when she told him that, which was why Lan Xuanyu could remember it so clearly because he was the one who told Nana that Lan Xiao didnt allow him to simply use the power on his right hand.

That thought flashed by in his head as he clenched his right fist. The golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass drilled out of his palm in an instant like thin strings of bandages that soon wrapped his right arm.

An indescribable strength coursed through Lan Xuanyus body as a faint golden light flickered beneath his eyes. He waved his right arm and grabbed ahold of Ye Lingtongs incoming left leg.

Pop!

When his arm swung out, Lan Xuanyu could feel a lot of confidence rising in his heart; it even had a tinge of desire for violence. Everything around him seemed to have slowed down including Ye Lingtongs incoming left leg. He felt that his moves were incredibly accurate as well.

Ye Lingtong felt disdainful when she saw Lan Xuanyu using his hand to grab her leg. Although she was a girl, shes confident about her strength especially when shes in the state of her Celestial Body; even the most powerful attack-type student like Lan Xuanyu would be no match for her.

But when her leg came into contact with his hand, she felt like she had just kicked a metal board. Right after that, a sort of trembling that evolved from the depths of her soul burst forth. She felt limp as the pain grew all over her body. She merely groaned softly and her entire body went soft like a boneless snake.

Lan Xuanyu had already raised his left hand at first but he didnt expect that the strong Ye Lingtong would collapse all of a sudden after coming into contact with his right hand.

The teachers were flabbergasted at this sudden change too and Lan Xuanyu instinctively retracted the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass from his right hand.

Everything happened so quickly that even the teachers didnt see what exactly happened.

Lan Xuanyu released her leg and Ye Lingtong, whose body had gone limp, was finally fully on the ground with that intense palpitation leaving her gasping for air.

Gong Yinghao rushed over hurriedly. Lingtong, are you alright?

Qiu Yuxin went up to them too. She was a female teacher which made it more convenient as she checked Ye Lingtongs body.

Lan Xuanyu stood at the side in a daze and the other students started giving him strange looks.

Especially those attack-type first graders.

Nevermind that Lan Xuanyu defeated Huang Jifan, they didnt think much of it but Ye Lingtong was different! Not only was she their class monitress, but she was also extremely strong and she would be able to defeat the entire class on her own. Furthermore, this wasnt the first time! It wasnt a big deal to lose but each time she did, it was always out of the blue.

Huang Jifan was standing next to his classmates at this moment and he mumbled softly, Does the class monitress have a crush on Lan Xuanyu? Did she let him win on purpose?

The monitress likes Lan Xuanyu! A girl next to him exclaimed immediately and the class was stirred up.

Ye Lingtong finally calmed down. Nobody could be more depressed than she was. She thought, How did I lose? How could it be! I have enough force and that kick should be able to defeat him. Lan Xuanyu had already lost his balance and he shouldve already been sent flying with my kick! Why was I the one who went limp? Whats with this Celestial Dragon spirit, huh?

But it wasnt as simple as a spirit not working properly; it seemed as if her entire body was out of order.

Just at this moment, the students discussion could be heard. The class monitress likes Lan Xuanyu and allowed him to win on purpose

Ye Lingtong only felt an instant rush of grief and indignation. She was only a six-year-old girl, after all! Her tears started rolling down and she yelled, I dont, I dont like him.

She jumped up from the ground, she charged towards Lan Xuanyu and pushed him before he could even run.

Lingtong! The teacher-in-charge of class one, Gong Yinghao called out and when he saw that Ye Lingtong didnt have the intention to stop, he chased after her.

Qiu Yuxin had a strange expression and she glanced at Lan Xuanyu. How could six-year-olds know anything about boy-girl relationships? Its not possible. But liking someone doesnt mean it has to be a boy-girl relationship, it could be out of admiration! With Lan Xuanyus looks, he could definitely get anyone to like him. Could it be because of this that Ye Lingtong showed him mercy?

Lan Xuanyu was confused as to why he got pushed and was obviously upset, his impression of Ye Lingtong worsened too. Not only did she pick on him, but she also had a very bad temper.

Then, he looked at Qiu Yuxin with his big and innocent eyes, Teacher Qiu, do we have to continue fighting?

Qiu Yuxin glanced at Gong Yinghaos retreating figure. She then looked at her proud disciples and the corners of her lips curved into a beautiful arc. Of course we must continue. Alright, first grade, class one, whos next

In order to give Gong Yinghao some face and also to give the other students a chance to practice, Qiu Yuxin swapped Lan Xuanyu out after he won ten consecutive matches.

And Lan Xuanyu finally became famous in the academy.

One may say that he was just lucky when he won against Ye Lingtong the first time but what about the second? Moreover, he defeated the other students too. That precise control over his water elements left a deep impression on the teachers and his status in class two gained more importance.

After school, Qiu Yuxin offered him a piece of weighty advice to work hard on his meditation and to strive to improve the rate of his Spirit Powers increase.

Teacher Nana, Teacher Nana Lan Xuanyu shouted right after he went through their homes front door.

Nana opened the door of her room and she walked out. When she saw Lan Xuanyu, her gaze naturally turned gentler. Youre back.

En. Teacher Nana, did you know? During our combat class today, I won ten matches consecutively Lan Xuanyu ran over, pulling Nanas hand as he told her everything about what happened during the match.

Nana smiled as she listened. Looking at how excited he was, she wasnt sure why but she felt as if her empty heart was suddenly filled.

Teacher Nana, why did Ye Lingtong fall at the moment I grabbed her? I did not do anything, I promise!

Nana paused and furrowed her brows as she thought. She then said, It should be because your spirit is more restrained towards her so this would happen. In other words, if she doesnt have any ill intentions toward you, she should be able to benefit too when both of you are going against the same enemy.

Lan Xuanyu curled his lips, She has such a bad temper, I dont ever want to be her partner. Teacher Nana, what will you be teaching me today? The footwork you taught me was awesome, they couldnt touch me at all.

Nana smiled. Abilities are valued not in quantity but the quality; you have just started learning footwork and there is still room for improvement. I will teach you some combat skills while you practice your footwork. Come on, lets go to the cultivation room.
