103: Chapter 103 Challenging All of Qi Yao's Disciples
Huo Lanyin, a member of the Yunshu Society.
Her skin was fair as snow, with willow-leaf eyebrows, almond eyes, an exquisite nose, and cherry lips; the light-colored dress she wore glittered like a gown.
She leaned back in her seat, crossing her long, toned legs, which were wrapped in a pair of "bare-leg" Divine Artifacts, her tone somewhat languid.
"Since you're going to Modu University to stir up trouble, you won't have the home-field advantage. We naturally have to follow you to be at ease."
Huo Lanyin tilted her head slightly to look at Xie Qingci.
Xie Qingci, like a mouse targeted by a cat, sat back in her seat properly and blinked ingratiatingly.
Watching Xie Qingci's timid appearance, Yue Shu sat straight in her own seat, with absolutely no intention of helping her.
"Lanyin~" Xie Qingci murmured.
"If you keep making noise, I'll turn off your phone!"
Huo Lanyin returned the beeping phone to Xie Qingci, a hint of disdain visible in her clear, dark eyes.
Xie Qingci took the phone as if receiving an amnesty, her fingers flying as she opened several apps, diving back into her high-intensity internet surfing as usual, completely forgetting Huo Lanyin's words.
Yue Shu chuckled, "You shouldn't have given it back to her!"
"It would be too noisy otherwise."
Huo Lanyin shook her head, clearly helpless against Xie Qingci.
Yue Shu thought for a moment and nodded slightly in agreement.
Xie Qingci, the focus of their conversation, couldn't care less. If she weren't allowed to surf the internet, she might as well be left to fend for herself in a Secret Realm, since there really was no internet in the Secret Realms anyway.
Whoosh—!
After a slight jolt, the plane successfully lifted off, piercing through the clouds like a sharp sword as it traversed the sky.
The plane flew along a fixed route toward Modu.
After landing smoothly, Yue Shu rushed to Modu University without delay, her Aura as fierce as a female general arriving on the battlefield.
Unlike fighting on the home turf of Huaxia University.
Yue Shu naturally couldn't just storm into Modu University; instead, she had sent a challenge letter in advance, specifically naming all the Disciples under Professor Qi Yao.
Usually, Modu University would ignore such things.
However, Yue Shu was a student of He Longting, and her challenge letter had naturally been issued with his consent. As long as He Longting's name was attached, Modu University had to agree.
Being challenged on one's own doorstep was embarrassing, but refusing to fight was even more so.
The Modu University administration ordered Professor Qi Yao to accept the challenge.
Although Professor Qi Yao wasn't even fit to carry He Longting's shoes, Yue Shu was, after all, only a student who had just reached the Four-Star level.
Inside the large Pet Beast Pavilion.
Professor Qi Yao strode into the Pet Beast Pavilion, his spirits soaring as enthusiastic cheers erupted in his ears, making him beam with joy.
As a professor at Modu University, accepting the challenge from He Longting's student, Yue Shu, represented the honor of Modu Beast Taming University.
Upon hearing the news of Yue Shu's challenge, the professors and students of Modu University had all come to the scene to cheer him on.
Professor Qi Yao's five Disciples were already waiting there.
"Teacher, don't worry, leave it to us!"
One of them spoke up proactively.
The others nodded one after another, clearly confident in handling Yue Shu's challenge, not fearing this Prodigy from Huaxia University in the slightest.
If you want to talk about Geniuses, everyone here was a Genius.
Could it be that just three years of study at Huaxia University could make up for her youth and the disadvantage of just having reached the Four-Star Beast Tamer level?
Huaxia University wasn't that divine.
Seeing his students so full of confidence, Professor Qi Yao, who had originally been somewhat worried, was overjoyed and immediately felt much more at ease.
"Good, I believe in you all!"
Professor Qi Yao sat in the main seat, looking toward the gate of the Pet Beast Pavilion.
Three beautiful figures appeared in their field of vision.
——"Why are there three of them?"
——"Perhaps it's a team battle."
——"The one in the middle is Yue Shu, I recognize her!"
The large Pet Beast Pavilion was immediately filled with murmurs. The teachers maintaining order did not stop them, because even they were paying attention to Yue Shu's every move.
After all, this challenge concerned the honor of Modu University.
Professor Qi Yao's expression also showed a hint of surprise.
However, he quickly regained his composure, his gaze fixed on Yue Shu in the middle, and he couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.
The power within Yue Shu was like a raging bonfire, its Aura rising to the sky, as terrifying as a tornado!
"Terrifying!"
He muttered to himself.
Truly worthy of being He Longting's student; to have such strength at such a young age, in time, she might become a Master-level Beast Tamer.
But for now, she was nothing to fear!
Professor Qi Yao looked at his five Disciples; apart from Zhang Xiuwen, who was a Three-Star Beast Tamer, the other four were all Four-Star Beast Tamers.
He immediately felt much more at ease again.
"When you go up later, make sure you fight beautifully!"
Facing Professor Qi Yao's instructions, the four Disciples who had reached the Four-Star Beast Tamer level were eager to fight, wanting to defeat He Longting's Disciple, Yue Shu, and thereby make a name for themselves in the academic circle.
Feeling their burning gazes, Yue Shu showed not a hint of nervousness, her bright eyes filled with disdain.
"Yue Shu, here to request a bout!"
The Storm Dragon tore through space and descended, its deep blue, scale-covered body glistening, while violent killing intent surged from the depths of its Dragon eyes.
There was no jeering or booing; the Pet Beast Pavilion was very quiet.
The students of Modu University stared straight at the Storm Dragon, feeling the terrifying Aura emanating from it, and trembled involuntarily.
However, Yue Shu was not without supporters; the cheers from Xie Qingci and Huo Lanyin were doing their best to stand out.
Professor Qi Yao's five Disciples were restless.
They certainly wanted the rewards from the school and their teacher, as well as the opportunity to make a name for themselves by defeating He Longting's student, but the power of the Storm Dragon made them deeply wary.
What if they didn't defeat Yue Shu but exhausted her strength, allowing a latecomer to snatch victory without any effort?
Wouldn't that honor just be handed over to someone else?
No, that absolutely wouldn't do!
Everyone began to calculate in their own minds.
Seeing this scene, the disdain on Yue Shu's face became even more obvious.
She spoke again: "Professor Qi Yao, why don't you let all your Disciples come at me together, lest there be an unfair distribution of the spoils!"
As her words fell, the Pet Beast Pavilion fell into silence.
Even if there were faint snickers, they were quickly extinguished, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Yue Shu, trying to see through her thoughts.
Professor Qi Yao saw the looks from his colleagues and couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed, immediately urging his Disciples loudly.
"Hurry up and go!"
Professor Qi Yao's students suddenly felt it was pointless.
If they all went up together, winning wouldn't be honorable.
Under pressure from Professor Qi Yao, they finally moved their feet and stepped into the Competition Arena, one after another summoning their Pet Beasts to prepare for battle.
"They don't think they're taking advantage, do they?"
Xie Qingci laughed softly, and even Huo Lanyin curled her lips into a slight smile, her tone carrying a hint of mockery.
"They will regret it."
The two women focused intently on the Competition Arena.
An unspeakable power surged around Yue Shu. The stable space was like a still lake into which a huge stone had been thrown; the resulting ripples stirred the surroundings, causing the space to distort.
Her Aura underwent a heaven-turning, earth-shattering change in an instant; her Soul strength and physical strength both reached a brand-new level.
Even her Contract Power changed from that of a Four-Star Beast Tamer to a Five-Star Beast Tamer, her Aura as vast as a Dragon, her power as steady as a mountain.
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
Yue Shu had become a genuine Five-Star Beast Tamer!
