Chapter 209: Chapter 189 Promotion_3

All these children clearly belonged to noble traditions, their arrogance far surpassed that of Lan Feng. Each student cast menacing glares toward Yan Xiaobao, but so far, none had the courage to act.

The nobles whispered amongst themselves, and suddenly, one tall boy stood up.

"Tch, tch," Lan Feng scoffed, eyeing the young man who stepped forward, saying, "He’s already twelve years old, a student at the ninth-star level." This boy was now walking toward Yan Xiaobao.

The boy was significantly larger than any of the other children. His physique alone made him appear at least a head and a half taller than Yan Xiaobao.

His name was Shan Ping. Although twelve years old, he was supposed to be studying with first-year students. His family was one of the older noble clans named after themselves and had long supported the Wang Family. Unfortunately, they lacked assets, and their cultivators hadn’t achieved high cultivation levels, making them nearly inconsequential. As a result, they barely attained the Wang Family’s favor.

When the Shan Clan saw Wang Julong enrolling in the Royal Art Academy, they deliberately enrolled their youngest son. Every year, they held him back from advancing to another grade, ensuring he remained in the same class as Wang Julong to act as a pawn, hoping to curry favor this way. Currently, Shan Ping was distinctly stronger than his peers. That was true if Yan Xiaobao only factored in cultivation realms.

Shan Ping was aware that Wang Julong was at the eight-star level. Despite being only one star higher himself, he thought he had a greater chance of victory. After all, climbing one star required considerable Qi reserves. Even if he lost, he would be seen as a brave soldier sacrificing himself for his master, fulfilling his sole command at the academy: strengthening ties with Wang Julong.

However, Shan Ping failed to consider that although Wang Julong was only at the eight-star level, he was widely regarded as the Wang Family’s foremost prodigy, with strength far surpassing what his star level implied.

The primary reason for Wang Julong’s immense power was his pure aura, which was far more refined than that of his peers. It enabled him to practice advanced martial arts techniques like Qi Spirit, further enhancing his prowess.

The same was true for Yan Xiaobao, though his aura was even purer, complemented by multiple advanced martial arts techniques, which allowed him to rival Wang Julong early on. These two children were far younger than Shanshan, whose strength was recorded far below theirs. There was no question about who was stronger.

Yan Xiaobao clearly noticed the underlying hostility, as Lan Feng explained the cultivation age of the older boy to him. Looking at Wang Julong’s subtle nod, Lan Feng obviously hoped for recognition, causing the white-haired boy to let out a deep sigh. Yan Xiaobao was not naive; he fully understood the group bullying unfolding, even though he had never willingly positioned himself in such situations before.

Before awaiting Shan Ping’s first move, Yan Xiaobao straightened his posture and slowly activated Speed Flow. Combat outside the arena was prohibited, but defense was permitted. The student certificates could record their actions, making it easy to determine the cause of the confrontation and penalize accordingly.

Yan Xiaobao didn’t have to wait long. A Qi-covered fist surged toward his head at a speed that could be considered rapid. It was clearly some kind of martial arts technique, though it was a skill picked from the lower sections of the Martial Arts Skills Hall, rendering it entirely ineffective against Huili attacks.

Shan Ping’s Qi, including the aura covering his hands, was neither as white as Yan Xiaobao’s nor as creamy as Wang Juelang’s; instead, it had a faint grayish tint, which indicated that Shan Ping’s Qi quality was far inferior to theirs.

Before Shan Ping landed his attack, Yan Xiaobao let out another sigh. His figure flickered and abruptly vanished without leaving behind a mirage. Instead, he repositioned himself right behind Shan Ping, leaving the students present flustered and overwhelmed by the execution of an advanced martial arts skill.

Once Yan Xiaobao appeared behind Shan Ping, he decisively activated his Fierce Strike skill, slamming the side of his hand into Shan Ping’s temple, causing the latter to collapse instantly.

Yan Xiaobao stared at Shan Ping’s unconscious body in stunned silence. He had originally thought the older boy would simply fall back and leave him alone, yet now he lay lifeless on the ground, a thin trickle of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

The Qi Theory lecture hall fell utterly silent.
