What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH) Chapter 53: Taking Leave

Is this the list of new students approved today huh?!

Astonishnt flashed in Ruo Lings eyes as she looked at the register.

Although Jia Nan Academy was conducting admissions in Wutan City today, the scope of admissions was not limited to Wutan City alone. Even so surrounding cities were included.

Even so, up until now, only a total of fifty individuals had t the qualifying requirents, and among these fifty, twenty-three of them had the surna Xiao, and without exception, all of them had reached the Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) Realm.

Yuer, Ruo Ling called softly, showing the register to Xiao Yu, and pointed at it, asking, Are all these Xiao surna newcors from your family?

Yes, Xiao Yu nodded in confirmation, causing a twitch in Ruo Lings temple. The accompanying senior students couldnt help but start discussing among themselves.

To be a Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) under the age of sixteen was already a testant to exceptional talent, but today they had admitted twenty-three of them at once, and all of them were from the Xiao Clan!

What on earth was going on with this family?

I thought you were already an exceptional one-in-a-million case, Ruo Ling said with a helpless wry smile. But I never expected that the people from your family would be the sa kind of geniuses as you.

You flatter , Instructor Ruo Ling, Xiao Yu replied softly, and Ruo Ling gradually recovered from her astonishnt.

Regardless, the academy has found a group of geniuses this ti, which can be considered a fortunate event for the academy, Ruo Ling said, smiling as she looked at the new students who had passed the examination. Welco to Jia Nan Academy. I hope all of you can make all necessary preparations within seven days. After seven days, the exclusive Jia Nan Academy flight squad will arrive, and we will depart imdiately.

Listening to Ruo Lings words, the expressions of the senior students beside her couldnt help but beco strange.

A group of geniuses? So, it turns out you can wholesale geniuses as well?

At that mont, Xiao Yan gently pushed aside the arm of Xiao i, who had her arms around his neck, and gently let her down. Xiao i raised her eyebrows in confusion, and a trace of unease faintly appeared in her heart.

Cousin Xiao Yan?

Xiao Yan smiled and reached out to touch Xiao is head before turning to face Ruo Ling. He clasped his hands and said in a respectful tone, Instructor Ruo Ling, there is sothing I would like to request, and I hope you can grant permission.

Xiao Yan? Ruo Ling raised an eyebrow upon hearing this na.

Wasnt this the sa cousin that Xiao Yu had been constantly ntioning?

Xiao Yu had previously confessed to Ruo Ling that the reason she chose to enter Jia Nan Academy was purely to find out why Xiao Yans Dou Qi had inexplicably disappeared. It was because of this that she spent her days in the outer courtyard library.

This kid is a two-star Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) It seed that not only had he regained his strength, but he also ranked extrely high among the new students.

It wasnt just Ruo Ling who reacted to this na. The gazes of Xue Ni, and the other girls who were close to Xiao Yu were filled with curiosity as they looked at Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan? Isnt that the person Yuer has been talking about

Her cousin whose Dou Qi disappeared?

Yes, yes! I rember Yuer specifically emphasizing that she and Xiao Yan are not blood-related

Just as Xue Ni and the others were getting excited and chattering, Xiao Yu suddenly furrowed her eyebrows and coldly glared at them, instantly silencing them. They dared not discuss it any further.

After all, not everyone was a masochist like Xue Ni, and Xue Ni herself couldnt bear the consecutive tornts from Xiao Yu.

anwhile, Ruo Ling snapped back to attention and smiled at the young man before her.

If you have sothing to say, feel free to bring it up. As long as its sothing within my ability, I will try my best to fulfill your request.

Instructor Ruo Ling, I hope you can grant a leave of about one year.

As soon as Xiao Yan uttered these words, the entire square fell into silence.

(So, hes really going to leave)

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xuner had already prepared themselves for Xiao Yans request for leave, but hearing it confird still made them feel a sense of loss.

However, they didnt try to dissuade him. The future that Xiao Yan pursued should not be hindered by them, and they didnt want to beco a burden to him.

But Xiao i, unlike Xiao Yu and Xiao Xuner, wasnt as mature. When she heard Xiao Yans response, her little head instantly went blank, and after coming back to her senses, a look of almost wanting to cry appeared on her face.

Xiao Wuwuwu!!!

Xiao i was about to speak up to stop him when Xiao Xuner tightly covered her mouth from behind. Then, Xiao Xuners voice, mixed with a hint of desolation, sounded in Xiao is ear.

Dont obstruct Xiao Yans decision. Xiao Yans future should be determined by himself.

These words instantly stopped Xiao i from struggling, and her excited mind cald down. She stared at Xiao Yans back in front of her and imdiately recalled various mories from the past.

Yes Cousin Xiao Yan has always been considering our future and making great efforts for it.

But Ive never known what Cousin Xiao Yan really wants for himself.

Cousin Xiao Yan definitely has things he wants to pursue for himself

How could I possibly stand in his way?

Feeling Xiao i calming down, Xiao Xuner also released her hand and quietly looked at Xiao Yan. Ruo Ling, who had also snapped back to reality, looked at the earnest young man before her with a hint of helplessness.

A year-long leave? Are you joking with ?

The normal curriculum for the outer branch of the Jia Nan Academy was three years, and Xiao Yans request for a year-long leave would take away one-third of that ti. Such a demand had never been made in the history of the academy.

It seed that Xiao Yus doted-upon cousin was capable of doing things beyond ordinary comprehension.

I wouldnt dare to joke about such a matter with my instructor. Xiao Yan softly denied and continued, However, this year-long leave is necessary for . If it truly puts you in a difficult position, I request that my na be crossed off, and I will participate in the assessnt again next year.

Ruo Ling fell silent.

From Xiao Yans appearance, he had made up his mind about taking this one-year leave.

Ruo Ling rubbed her nose bridge with a headache.

Indeed, geniuses may be great, but they also have their unique ways of doing things. It wasnt sothing an ordinary instructor could handle.

Xiao Yu was like that before, always hiding in the library and skipping classes. Ruo Ling had made countless promises to the dean to prevent Xiao Yu from being expelled.

And now, this young man from the sa clan as Xiao Yu was making an extrely unreasonable request. Moreover, it seed there was no room for negotiation.

Ruo Ling quietly observed Xiao Yan, the young man who had been ntioned nurous tis by Xiao Yu.

Not only had he recovered his previously prodigious talent, but from Ruo Lings deduction, Xiao Yan had only taken one year to advance from 3 Star Dou Zhi (Battle Disciple, 1st Level) stage to his current level as a two-star Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) . Otherwise, Xiao Yu, who usually returned ho every year, wouldnt have entered the inner branch last year.

It might have even taken less than a year.

Ruo Ling didnt want to give up on such a talented student. Mainly because she herself wanted to see what kind of person had been praised incessantly by the outstanding Xiao Yu.

I can accept your request, Ruo Ling said calmly. Before Xiao Yan could thank her, Ruo Ling added, The condition is that you have to withstand twenty rounds against , a Five-Star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) !

As long as you can accomplish that, I will grant you this one-year leave! No matter how big of a problem it causes with the academy, I will help you resolve it!

Do you still want to take this leave?

A trace of coldness flashed in Ruo Lings eyes, and her aura continued to rise, as if she wanted to intimidate Xiao Yan into backing down.

Although she didnt believe it would work on Xiao Yan, who was from the sa clan as Xiao Yu.

And her assumption proved to be correct.

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, then his gaze beca firm and he locked eyes with Ruo Ling.

Xiao Yan is willing to give it a try!
