After the school closed, the teacher called Xuan, telling him to stay behind until everyone left the classroom. Xuan was told to sit beside her.
However, Xue Ming was waiting for Xuan to co out. She sat outside the door, hearing these girls’ ear-piercing chats.
"Xi Ning, tell us, how was it?"
"Sweet, the new boy’s... is the sweetest thing I’ve ever tasted. You should also give it a try."
"Definitely! I an, did you see how he pressed his hands on her... oh my god!"
"Talk about the veined... it was so big. Xi Ning, I’m jealous of you now."
The topic was definitely not going to end between them or within the walls of the academy. It was sothing wild and spectacular.
And once Xuan’s cultivation with her started to show effects the next day, every lady would be asking, Who was the man?
Although she was royalty, because Xue Ming had tasted real cultivation, she wasn’t everyone’s favorite.
Neither did the girls want to be friends with her. The only friend she had was an alchemist — the place she would have been in, but she wasn’t smart enough for it.
So she decided to try out the dual academy, because passing the academy gave high status and a license to hunt demons.
At last, Xuan ca out of the class. The first person he saw was Xue Ming, hugging her legs.
Xuan walked toward her, and the mont he placed his hand on her shoulder from behind, a dagger made of phoenix flas was just inches away from his neck.
Xue Ming had been lost a few monts ago and just reacted to Xuan’s touch due to danger reflexes.
"I’m sorry," Xue Ming quickly apologized, putting out the fla dagger. At least the dagger didn’t touch Xuan — that would have been bad news.
"The teacher wants you to co and cultivate with her, right?" Xue Ming asked. That was the only thing she could guess that made her tell Xuan to wait behind.
But it wasn’t true. "She was just asking about the technique I used," Xuan replied.
They both walked down the mountain. Xuan was wondering why Xue Ming wasn’t using her spirit beast like before.
Maybe it was because they had to buy the potion and required items Xuan would need for the pill concoction, yes that was it.
"Do you shalessly cultivate in front of people?" Xue Ming asked.
"It wasn’t deliberate. I just had to finish it since it already started."
Xue Ming stared at the mountain, finding sothing else to ask Xuan. "So, will Ni Xing be your partner for the dual test?"
"Dual test? I just got here."
Each year, students got to advance to the next class by earning rit points.
rit points could be earned by passing minor tasks in the academy. These tasks were determined by your character and commitnt.
For instance, good behavior could earn you five rit points, and as you earned them, you could also lose them.
A total of fifty rit points was needed to enter the trial stage, which was the final stage before passing to the next year.
However, it seed this year was unlucky. The first-year students were having all their rit points based on the dual test.
"Find a partner to cultivate with. The teacher records your current stage and sets the targeted stage to pass the test," Xue Ming explained.
"Okay, you just have to find a partner then."
Xue Ming paused. "No. This is my third ti as a first-year, Xuan. I don’t know how to dual cultivate."
"Hahaha... easy. I’ll be your partner then."
"What? No way. You’re a pervert. I don’t like perverts," was all Xue Ming said before running down the mountain with a chuckle.
"Hey, wait up!"

Han Bai got ho after school; he was living with his sick mom and little sister. On his way ho, he managed to smuggle a few snacks.
Han Bai cut it in half and gave one to his sick mother and little sister.
Their ho wasn’t decent at all; it was a rundown house with leaking rooftops. Han Bai was only able to attend the dual academy by scholarship luck.
The scholarship was given to be an alchemist, but he changed course. Now he realized he had made a big mistake.
Because maybe if he was an alchemist, he’d be able to treat his mom by now. Han Bai sighed.
"You should eat this, Han," his mother weakly said.
"Oh no, no, I made a new friend today, and he bought sothing to eat, so I begged him to buy you guys the bread," Han lied.
He didn’t wait for his mom to say anything else and just left there, entering the only room that was divided by a little torn curtain.
By the friend, he was thinking of Xuan. "His stage is at Divine Stage 08, but it’s been locked, and he thinks he’s at Martial Realm Stage 08," said Han Bai.
When everyone was busy enjoying the little showdown scene between Xuan and Xi Ning, Han Bai sensed sothing they didn’t.
The aura of a god. Xi Ning was undoubtedly at the early Martial Realm he sensed, but also the late Divine Stage Eight.
To the naked sense, it was masked as Martial Realm Stage Eight. Not even Xuan knew that.
As Han Bai was thinking, a little purple wasp appeared in front of him, buzzing. This was his la spirit beast that knew how to do one thing.
And that was exactly what the spirit beast was doing. "What? You know where the tomb of a taboo god is? Shit, there could be treasures there," said Han Bai.
The buzzing of the purple wasp increased as if it was having a conversation with Han Bai. Of course, it was.
"Dangerous, uh, are you certain of it? The treasures?"
--[Bzzz... Buzz...Zix]—[Yes, you moron, I’ve always been certain of everything. You and your party are just too scared to raid a little labyrinth.]
"Scared, uh!... Xuan," and that na was all he could think of right now.
