Chapter 11: Are You Making Me A Spy?!

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Luo Jiutian was completely stunned. She had clearly misunderstood the situation. However, Xiang Xiaowan, who saw Luo Jiutian, was not aware of it. She only ran over in surprise:

“Luo, why are you here?”

Although Xiang Xiaowan was a little shy, it was still difficult to hide the surprise in her tone. Hearing this, Luo Jiutian came back to her senses and stammered:

“I, I came over to pay you for your clothes. Thank you for this morning.”

This answer did not make Xiang Xiaowan suspicious. As a low-ranking student, she naturally admired the famous geniuses in the academy.

Luo Jiutian, on the other hand, was a little distracted. She couldn’t help but peek at the door of the All-round class.

Soon, Zhang Xuan packed up his lesson plans and walked out of the all-around class. Seeing Xiang Xiaowan and Luo Jiutian, Zhang Xuan simply went over and told them not to delay their cultivation before returning to the office.

Looking at Zhang Xuan’s back, Luo Jiutian heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like he was overthinking. Zhang Xuan was dressed neatly. He didn’t look like he had done anything just now.

The two of them would go to the practice room every day after class. Since they met today, they naturally went together. After reaching the practice room, Xiang Xiaowan walked straight to the corner where she usually sat and began to meditate. Luo Jiutian also walked towards the wooden dummy that she often used.

What the two of them did not know was that the scene of them entering the training room together had already been seen clearly by Shi Yunsong, the teacher of Combat Class One, who was in the office on the fourth floor.

“Isn’t that the school’s most trashy trash, Xiang Xiaowan? Why is she with Luo Jiutian? Could it be that they have a good relationship in private?”

Shi Yunsong soon revealed a cold smile. He already had an idea in mind.

..

Soon, it was night, and the students in the training room returned to their dorms to rest one after another, only Xiang Xiaowan, who was meditating in the corner, and Luo Jiutian, who was slashing at the wooden dummy, were left.

Luo Jiutian’s expression turned uglier and uglier after she swung his sword again. For the entire day, she could not help but observe Xiang Xiaowan’s cultivation. As a result, she found that after Xiang Xiaowan entered the cultivation state, she seemed to have completely calmed down. Not only was her cultivation going smoothly, but the people and things in the outside world would also not affect her.

This puzzled Luo Jiutian: “How did she do it?”

Just as he was thinking about this, a familiar figure appeared by the window outside the training room and waved at Luo Jiutian.

Luo Jiutian was slightly stunned. She quickly walked out of the training room and said:

“Teacher Shi, why aren’t you resting this late?”

It was Shi Yunsong, the teacher of Combat Class One!

Shi Yunsong didn’t answer Luo Jiutian’s question. Instead, he made a gesture to keep quiet and asked in a low voice:

“Are you very familiar with Xiang Xiaowan?”

Luo Jiutian was baffled by this question, but she still answered honestly:

“Not very close, you can say that we just made friends.”

Hearing this reply, Shi Yunsong nodded slightly and then deliberately probed:

“I see. Since you’re a friend, you should have some understanding of her cultivation progress, right? What level is her cultivation technique at? How much progress has she made? Can you tell me?”

Hearing this, Luo Jiutian was dumbfounded. What was the meaning of this?

Seeing Luo Jiutian’s reaction, Shi Yunsong said sanctimoniously:

“Luo Jiutian, don’t think too much. I just feel that Xiang Xiaowan, this child, hasn’t improved after two years of schooling. I feel that she is a little pitiful, so I want to give her some guidance! Could it be that you really have the heart to watch your friend be harmed by that misleading intern teacher, Zhang Xuan?”

“This…”

Hearing this, Luo Jiutian hesitated. However, Luo Jiutian shook his head and said:

“Teacher, I still think that this might not be appropriate. After all, our Combat Class One and the All-rounded class still have a bet. Moreover, Xiang Xiaowan shouldn’t need any guidance now. I see that her cultivation is quite smooth. It’s even so smooth that I’m a little envious…”

Luo Jiutian’s face darkened. Although Luo Jiutian didn’t intend to be a snitch, he still accidentally spilled the beans.

Shi Yunsong narrowed his eyes in surprise: Xiang Xiaowwan’s cultivation was actually very smooth. How was this possible? Wasn’t she a good-for-nothing who hadn’t made any progress in two years?

Shi Yunsong did not say anything as he thought about this. He pretended that he did not notice this and nodded:

“If that’s the case, then I might be worrying too much. You should go back and rest early. Your health is more important.”

Watching Shi Yunsong’s back as he left, Luo Jiutian didn’t think too much about it. He returned to the practice room and continued his sword cultivation.

Shi Yunsong, who had left, took a detour and returned. He peeked at Xiang Xiaowan’s cultivation through the window from afar. After watching for an entire hour, Shi Yunsong’s expression gradually turned ugly.

“It seems that Xiang Xiaowan should be practicing the inner sect cultivation method now. But with her terrible aptitude, how can she cultivate for such a long time without knowing fatigue?”

“Could it be that Zhang Xuan taught her some powerful high-level cultivation technique?

“This is impossible!”

Although Zhang Xuan was still an ordinary student two years ago and had basically never left school in these two years, it was impossible for him to have any unique cultivation techniques in his hands.

However, in this world where the strong preyed on the weak, it wasn’t strange for anyone to have some unknown trump card in the hands of the people of the Central Plains!

The more Shi Yunsong thought about it, the more uncertain he felt. Then, as if he was comforting to comfort himself, he muttered:

“Forget it, even if this Xiang Xiaowan really opened her eyes and made some progress, so what?”

“Luo Jiutian is in our class! Even if it’s an average score, that trash Zhang Xuan can’t beat me!”

Thinking of this, Shi Yunsong was about to leave when he saw something strange in the practice room: Xiang Xiaowan, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly began to emit a faint light. As for herself, she was actually completely immersed in her cultivation. It did not seem like she was disturbed by this phenomenon at all.

Luo Jiutian, who had been practicing his swordsmanship, was dumbfounded when he saw this.

What was going on? How did Xiang Xiaowan cultivate? How could there be such a phenomenon?!

Shi Yunsong, who was standing outside, could no longer remain calm:

“Could this cultivation technique be… Shield of Holy Light? This is impossible! How did Xiang Xiaowan, that trash, manage to master the Purple-rank Shield of Holy Light so quickly?!”

Shi Yunsong’s face was distorted by shock, and a strong sense of unease lingered in his heart.

“No! No matter what tricks Zhang Xuan uses, I can’t lose!”

The next day, Shi Yunsong announced with a gloomy expression in Combat Class One’s class:

“Today, the training volume of the whole class has doubled!”
