Lu Qiji was a weird one in the dragon slayer department.
Antisocial and icily arrogant, every word from her mouth was harsh and unfriendly. As if sheâs a debt collector demanding payment and that everyone owes her dozens of pieces of gold.
Even Chu Xun who follows her all the time had never received any special treatment, and her words to him remained cold. They never saw her speaking softly or even smiling at him.
Of course, this is also the reason that although everyone is mentally stable would still be willing to have her as their classmatesâ-sheâs not only prejudiced against one person instead looks at everyone with a scowl on her face, this is her personality and not because she thought everyone is a jerk.
You see, students who could enroll into Starry Sky have high tolerance and forgiveness.
Usually during class, Lu Qiji rarely spoke. Instead she concentrated on listening to the teacherâs explanation or other studentsâ debate.
But today she showed her colours, jumped out against Li Muyang; in fact, everyone was not surprised at all.
Everyone knew her least favorite was Li Muyang, they have had many conflicts at school before.
The fact that she did not instantly fire criticism at him already made people very surprised, now that she finally expressed herself, everyone finally felt reassuredâ-Lu Qiji was indeed still Lu Qiji.
Questioned by his own student, Yang Xiaohu did not look too well.
He is a teacher of Starry Sky, everything he said has been checked against countless data and after countless hours of research. You guys contradicted him in public, is that not disrespectful to the teacher?
Although he was refuted countless number of times before in his life.
Kong Li and Xiahou Qianbai also both commonly refute him.
Seeing Lu Qiji standing up and refuting Li Muyang, no, supporting his point of view, he could not help but get excited.
There is a student willing to stand on my side. I am not alone.
He hurriedly walked in front of Lu Qiji and asked with a smile: âStudent Lu Qiji, what did you mean?â
âNothing.â Lu Qiji said.
âââ-â The smile on Yang Xiaohâs face reduced slightly, then said encouragingly: âStudent Lu Qiji, if you have any thoughts on this subject, you can tell us frankly. The more the truth is debated the clearer it becomes. No matter whether itâs questioning teacherâs arguments or supporting teacherâs point of viewâ-Teacher welcomes feedback. I am an open-minded teacher, I am happy to discuss with my students. â
âDragons are divine beings, this is beyond doubt.â Lu Qiji said in a cold voice: âLow-ranking dragons have half the power of immortals and high-ranking dragons are no different to divine beings. Some are even more powerful than divine beings.â
Yang Xiaohu was even more excited, saying: âStudent Lu Qiji do you have any basis for what you just said?â
â[The Dragon Chronicles] have recorded all sorts of supernatural powers and the destructive force of dragons, is it something that ordinary beasts could compete with? Could a powerful tiger swallow a town? Could the most powerful lion crush a towering mountain with its paw? Also wolvesâ-they are inferior animals, ants that could be pressed dead with a finger, can they be compared to dragons? â
Yang Xiaohu nodded repeatedly in response, saying: âStudent Qiji is rightâ-then why did you say âthief shouting âcatch the thiefââ?â
âSome people are deliberately trying to misrepresent the abilities of the dragon race, ignoring their dangerous and threatening natureââjust what motives does such a person have?â Lu Qiji shot a glare at Li Muyang.
Li Muyang completely ignored Lu Qiji, looked at Tie Muxin with a smile and said: âI believe that Tie Muxin classmate meant no harm. He was belittling the dragon, because he believes in the strength of humans. He believes that humans can triumph no matter what, the powerful human elites can slay dragons. Dragon slayer, this is the dream of millions of people, itâs also my childhood dreamâ-we all hoped that our ambition does not die, our dreams never destroyed. We still have a chance to slay a dragon. Is this not the case, Tie Muxin classmate?â
âThatâs right.â Tie Muxin said in a coarse voice. He is the representative of the theory that humans are superior; in his mind, humans are the most powerful, they are invincible. This point of view and the fact that he came from the desert, a very barren and harsh environment, are closely linked. In his opinion, there is nothing that human cannot do. Whether itâs nature or dragons, they can all be overcame. If dragons are divine beings, then, tens of thousands of years ago, the dragon slayer heroesâ-just who were they?
Therefore, just as Lu Qiji stood up and refuted Li Muyang, and also questioned the motive of those who belittled the danger and threat of dragons, his face also turned quite embarrassed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Is she not intentionally taking a different view?
Fortunately, Li Muyang classmate was willing to stand up and speak for me; he really is a good person.
âI just think humans can achieve anything, humans who cultivate should be able to slay dragons. This is documented in the history books, Red Nujiang can also attest to this fact. I donât have any selfish motives, Iâm just voicing my opinionâ-â
Tie Muxin loudly beat his strong chest, growled at Lu Qiji: âwhat motive would I have? What can I plot? Do you think Iâm a dragonââLook, am I a dragon? Am I a dragon?â
âRetard.â Lu Qiji swept a cold glance over Tie Muxin and said disdainfully.
Faced with such a mentally deficient opponent, she had no mind of even saying an extra word to him.
âWhat did you say?â Tie Muxin was fuming with rage, his long hair messily draped over his shoulder, the Starry Sky robe on his body making loud hissing sounds.
Earth-yellow air enveloped around his body, like something was being scorched. Both his hand clenched into a fist, both fists flashed with yellow light, as though they were ready and waiting for action, and extremely dangerous.
They could be killed,, but not be humiliated. Desert people attach great importance to their intelligence.
Who dare scold them âidiotâ, is the same as spitting in their face in publicââno, hundred and thousand times more serious than spitting.
Tie Muxin was about to fight with all his might.
Cha!
With the lash of his sword, a rainbow flashed across, the sword radiating a biting cold and majestic aura.
Chu Xun drew his sword up and before everyone knew, he was already standing before Lu Qiji and said in an unfriendly tone: âTie Muxin, youâve been used by a vile person yet you still donât realised, you even dared to attack Lu Qiji, if youâre not an idiot, then what are you?ââIf you want to attack Qiji, then you have to deal with me first.â
Also, no one knew where did Chu Xun found so many good sword, a short while ago he gifted Lin Canghai a top-graded sword but now he has another one.
âThen fight, do you think Iâm afraid of you?â
âThen let me see you what skills you desert savages have.â
A battle was about to erupt!
Yang Xiaohu glanced at Lin Canghai, only to find him watching everything happening with a slight smile on his face and without any intention of obstructing or dissuading like last time.
Lu Qiji sat expressionless in the same place, looking as though she has nothing to do with this at all.
While Li Muyang said to teacher Yang anxiously: âTeacher Yang, hurry do something, canât let him bully Tie Muxin classmateââhe didnât do anything wrong.â
ââââ-â Yang Xiaohu was on the verge of tears. Oh, my young master, can you say a few less words? Pouring oil onto the fireââare you not afraid of burning yourself?
Just what did he do to be landed with such a group of students?
As Tie Muxin listened to Li Muyangâs words, he was deeply touched, he thought to himself: Li Muyang is such a good friend, good brother, even at this time he was still worried about me being bullied. Chu Xun and Lu Qiji have devious motives, saying that Iâm being used by a vile person without knowingââwho are the vile people, itâs obvious.
Tie Muxin shouted: âBrother Muyang, you donât have to worry about me. This pretty boy wants to eat me, Iâm afraid he does not have a good mouthââLooking high and mighty all day long, as if heâs above everyone else. I never liked the sight of him, today let me teach him a lesson. Let him know that he has to be low-key.â
âSince Muxin classmate said so, I donât know what else to say.â Li Muyang said with a sigh.
Yang Xiaohu gently sighed: âAll of you, stop it.â
âTeacher Yang, you saw it too. Chu Xun went too far.â
âTeacher Yang, ignore what happens today. After I cut off his arm off it will overââââ
âYou want my arm, Iâll snap off your headââââ
âA toad yawning, you talk bigââ-â
âIf you want to fight then fight, donât be garrulous like an old ladyââ-â
âYou think I donât dare to? Come onâââ
Tie Muxin was tempted.
The earth-yellow smoke around his body began to fill the air around him, enveloping his body.
The yellow light in his fist turning increasingly bright like an earth-yellow jewel.
Before his body moved, the surrounding air already became tighter and the space began to distort.
Chu Xun also moved.
He lifted his sword horizontally, the white tip of the sword flickering like a serpentâs tongue. The sharp tip striking towards the seventy-two acupuncture points of Tie Muxinâs body, as though no matter from which direction it attacked from, it would quickly sever him into pieces.ã
Yang Xiaohu disappeared from his spot.
Yang Xiaohu slapped Tie Muxin on the shoulder and in a flash the qi that Tie Muxin gathered dispersed before Tie Muxin toppled backwards to the ground, landing heavily on his buttocks.
Although his right hand only stretched out slightly, Chu Xunâs sword fell right into his palm, and at the same time, he retrieved the scabbard in Chu Xunâs left hand.
In a flash!
In the blink of an eye!
No, without even the time to blink, without feeling the passage of time.
He disappeared, then instantly reappeared at the same place.
In this process, he has done so many things already.
âI saidââââ Yang Xiaohu blinked his triangular eyes, his honest-looking face seemed quite helpless as he said: âYou have to respect me.â
The atmosphere froze.
Looking petrified.
Everyone was dumbstruck, watching Yang Xiaohu, silently unable to say a word for a long time.
Yang Xiaohu, was really too much like a tiger.
