The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Those trash from the Inferior Compound's luck was indeed very good. Twice in a row, they benefited from the system.

  However, in this round, they could forget about having any advantages!

  In all likelihood, they also knew this, that's why they didn't even bother to come.

  Yuan Ling Xuan looked at the Inferior Compound's completely empty competitor's seats. His intonation lazily lengthened as he spoke to Tusu Feng at a not so distant place. "Principal, there's still half an incense time, once the sandalwood finished burning, if they still haven't appeared, then we can only decide the match based on the forfeiture rules. When that time comes, you shouldn't shield the students from your compound, otherwise, we'll be quite bitter."

  Tusu Feng nobly sat at the seat as head of the Inferior Compound, after hearing Yuan Ling Xuan's words, he sipped a mouthful of tea, his manner of speaking was emotionless. "Right now, I'm sitting here without any authority to judge, not to mention to shield."

  "The principal's right, Ling Xuan, you're thinking too much. Stand properly for a little while longer." Master White sitting by the side gently stroked his beard, his face indescribably complacent. "In a short while, you'll be able to come down. We're people from the Superior Compound all year round. What's there to waiting for them for half an incense time, don't be impetuous."

  Yuan Ling Xuan smiled for a time. "Teacher, this student's not being impetuous, I'm only worried that the opponent's scared and won't even dare to come, then the principal will certainly be deeply hurt."

  "You're also right." Master Bai feigned indifference and turned to glance towards Tusu Feng's direction. "Principal, did those students from your compound even register. If they wanted to throw away the competition, you can directly withdraw their names. After all, those who're ordinarily too arrogant are afraid to lose face in front of so many people, unable to bear staying at the academy anymore. We totally understand. Asking Ling Xuan and company to go softer on them when competing is also possible. There's no need to be like this, not even showing their faces."

  Tusu Feng turned the teacup in his hand, his habitually gentle voice even softer. "Who told

  Master Bai that they want to throw away the match? A bit of delay, that's all. It's still not yet time, what's Master Bai so anxious for."

  "Hehe, you're right, what am I anxious for, the person who should be anxious indeed's not me." Master Bai's odd manner of speech was implicitly provocative as he retracted his gaze from Tusu Feng's body.

  Tusu Feng quietly sat there gazing at the distance, his gaze falling on that sandalwood incense that's almost extinguished.

  His messenger boy stood at his side, slightly bending his body forward, reporting something.

  Tusu Feng suddenly knitted his brows.

  Just at this time, someone yelled. "The incense is burning out!"

  The hand holding Tusu Feng's teacup tightened, his pair of dark black pupils also immediately submerged.

  The three referees mutually glanced at each other, then started to pick up the writing brush, dipped it in ink, and was going to write the two words 'abandoned match' under the Inferior Compound's column when they heard a bang!

  The wall around the sports stage was kicked by somebody, tearing open a hole!

  White dust flew in their eyes as three human images seemed to form, each aura was different, each presence was out of the ordinary.

  Nangong Lie's eyebrows rose halfway, his entire body adorned wanton and restrainedly. He lifted his hand to press on his own hair, on the spotlessly white wrist was a string of Buddhist beads. His long and narrow eyes naughtily smiled. There's no time to restrain the wickedness emanating from his body, such that even a corner of his eyebrows bewitched the young ladies into blushing.

  Next, Wei Wei stood by his side, profoundly smiling a faint smile yet not a smile. Within her languidness was a hint of character. Her left hand leisurely rolled up the sleeve on her right hand as the corners of the mouth rose a little. Compared to other women, she was much more dashing...

  Lastly, the silver clothed black haired Baili Jia Jue stood behind them and appeared to be slowly walking over.

  Wind blew on his black hair, his lengthy robe fell in the cold air filled quite densely with dust, yet seemed not the least bit soiled by it. On the contrary, a kind of noble aura that's distinctively his leaked out, like a phantom king sitting within a decaying ancient castle, graceful, unhurried....

  "Let's go." Wei Wei curved her lips and looked up, pausing after each word. "Let's have them experience how arrogantly unbridled our Inferior Compound really is."

  Such a simple sentence.

  Three entirely different personalities, three extraordinary figures, spaced themselves and lined up, steeping into a bubbling cauldron of voices within the arena.

  That's right!

  They're that arrogant!

  Watching these several people, Master Bai's white eyebrows gradually gathered together, displeased as he coldly humphed. "I've never seen anyone appearing onstage like this!"

  Wei Wei and company could care less what he said as they immediately stood in front of Tusu Feng, their voices clear, every word distinct. "Representatives of the Inferior Compound for the competition reporting!"

  The referees sitting in the distance couldn't see their facial features clearly, however, after they heard those words, they got up and again put away their writing brushes.

  Tusu Feng raised his head and looked at the three most headache inducing students in front of him. His tone was gentle. "Lop off ten thousand taels, you guys still have sixty thousand."

  [Why?]

  Wei Wei's eyebrows rose. "Principal, we shouldn't have been late, right?"

  Seeing Master Bai's expression that looked like he'd swallowed a housefly, they knew that they made it on time.

  "Getting into a serious clash with the opponents after a competition and causing a great disturbance, five thousand taels. After that..." Tusu Feng neither hurriedly nor slowly turned his head and glanced towards the broken wall. "Destroying academy property, five thousand taels."

  Nangong Lie remained unconvinced. "We had to take a shortcut." If we didn't kick down a wall, we absolutely wouldn't have made it in time. In addition, the main point was that kicking down a wall was quite eye-catchingly cool, wasn't it?"

  Tusu Feng took a glance at Nangong Lie, a glance that seemed to be considering whether he should deduct that last five thousand taels.

  Seeing this, Wei Wei turned towards Nangong Lie and flashed him a thumbs up.

  Nangong Lie curved his lips into a smile, even more brilliantly than before.

  Tusu Feng put down the teacup in his hand, speaking slowly. "Talking back to the principal, deduct another five thousand taels."

  Nangong Lie: ...

  Wei Wei: ...

  Damn, wasn't he considering not to punish them!

  "Alright, it's your turn now, go onstage." Tusu Feng paused, and spoke again. "If you win beautifully, I can reconsider and cancel the previous deductions."

  Between the three of them, two of them immediately ignited with excitement, synchronized within their same small shared universe, their eyes flashed brightly as they looked at Yuan Ling Xuan onstage!

  The corners of Yuan Ling Xuan's mouth curved upwards, as if he totally didn't think they're worth anything at all. "Since you've come, then hurry up and fight. After we're done fighting, I can finally go and take a nap."

  Chapter 163 - His Highness Competes

  The teacher watched the judges by his side nodding their heads, stood up, and coughed fiercely twice.

  Following the sounds of those two dry coughs, the entire arena regained its quietness.

  Teacher Ling Li scanned all around. After confirming everyone's silence, did he speak. "The academy's finals, Superior Compound versus Inferior Compound, first match, martial qi competition, starts now!"

  After he finished speaking, the teacher returned to his original position.

  Master Bai felt that
he didn't even need to watch the first match. This was Yuan family's most outstanding genius. His martial qi's level was only slightly beneath Murong Chang Feng's. Even within the entire academy, one may not necessarily find many who could compare with his strength, much less trash from the Inferior Compound.

  The match he's most concerned with was the second one in armaments, and it wasn't for any other reason except that armaments was unlike the other two matches. During the finals, a written exam was added.

  He's afraid at that time, the duration would be too lengthy and the students over here might lose patience.

  It's easy to understand. The outcome basically was already inevitable, yet they had to use their freetime to compete with this group of people who didn't even know what armaments were. They were really just wasting their time. They would be better off sleeping a bit more.

  Master Bai shook his head, directly put away the purple ceramic teapot in his hand, and started to close his eyes to rest.

  The spectators who saw him breathed a lengthy sigh. "Look at how relaxed Master Bai is, he doesn't even need to give any pointers and just allowed Young Master Yuan to directly go onstage. I reckon this time, there's no need to think about it, the champion will be the Superior Compound."

  "That's for sure! In the previous two rounds, the sequence was divination, then martial qi. The Inferior Compound still was able to win, because martial qi was left for last, but it'll be different in the finals. Once they lose the first round, it'll be tantamount to losing half of the competition already."

  "That's right, that person from the Inferior Compound, do you guys have inside information on him? What rank of a martial artist is he, yet so brazen, even already b.u.t.t heads with Young Master Yuan before."

  "I don't know any inside information, however, when I looked at the school records last time, he seemed to be earth rank."

  "Ha ha ha, earth rank? Then it's going to be a tragedy for him. Young Master Yuan won't be lenient. However, speaking of this, in the preceding two rounds, the Inferior Compound won undefeated. It seems that person hasn't competed before."

  "Doesn't matter if he's come out before, he's still going to be screwed, don't forget, that's Young Master Yuan."

  Everybody's tongues were wagging, everyone taking delight in someone else's calamity as they laughed.

  Yet when they encountered the figure approaching from behind, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

  The people nearby automatically made way for him.

  In his eyes, it's as if the many people weren't there, nor was there the existence of Yuan Ling Xuan. His gaze was as it's always been, unapproachable, cold and detached, noble, also a trace of something indecipherable.

  Just from that, Yuan Ling Xuan fumed with anger between gritted teeth. He was arrogant by nature. All of those officials, big or small, which one of them didn't need to watch his mood to survive.

  Even within White Academy, students from all four compounds must listen to his commands.

  Yet this destitute pedantic guy dared to embarrass him!

  Yuan Ling Xuan didn't believe at all that an earth ranked martial artist deserved his attention. If it weren't for the fact that this despicable guy was too arrogant, he wouldn't have even needed to appear onstage.

  However!

  He was absolutely willing to beat his opponent into a pulp!

  Especially that arrogant face of his, he had to properly take care of it!

  Yuan Ling Xuan strode a step forward, lifting his eyelids to glance sideways at Baili Jia Jue. "You now should know how big the disparity is between you and I. You dared to provoke me on the first day of school. I can't help but say that you're really not afraid of death. If I were you, I'd throw away the match right now, at least your life will be saved. Of course, if you kneel and beg this young master, I might actually leave half of your life intact."

  After hearing these words, the first to react wasn't Baili Jia Jue, rather, it's the Seventh Prince sitting in the Superior Compound's alternate section.

  The little person stood up all of a sudden. On his face was fear the end of the world's coming.

  That guy dared to go as far as having Third Brother kneel to him.

  Was that son from the Yuan family crazy!

  This won't do. After the competition, he must sever his ties with the Superior Compound to avoid suffering collateral damage when Third Brother retaliated!

  Third Brother had never been the kind of person who's done after he beat up someone.

  After he's done beating him up, he's gonna follow up with one of his most painful attacks!

  For example, have him completely strip n.a.k.e.d and dance the frog dance.

  Oh god!

  He really didn't want to think about it!

  Little Seventh Prince wrapped his hands around his bald head and shook it back and forth, his little body almost couldn't stand firmly, his pair of cheeks was actually bulging cutely.

  One had no choice but to say that this Yuan Ling Xuan was too dumb!

  Really was especially dumb!

  Nangong Lie also thought this as he slowly broke into a smile, both ice-cold and pensive.

  Let's first not count the fire qilin. That guy's immeasurable martial qi alone was more than enough to beat up ten Yuan Ling Xuan's.

  Heh...how's Third Prince going to respond?

  Nangong Lie turned his head around, and looked at the side of Baili Jia Jue's face becoming colder.

  Yuan Ling Xuan's still fearlessly chirping and babbling over there.

  Not until he'd flaunt just about everything did Baili Jia Jue slowly open his mouth and only said three words. "Who are you?"

  Yuan Ling Xuan's face started to crack...

  "Pfff!"

  Wei Wei, who heard everything from beginning to end, couldn't control herself, as she buried her face in her belly and laughed.

  Instant kill, absolutely an instant kill!

  At a time when you hate a person, detest him so much your head's going to explode, your target only responded with 'who are you'.

  That kind of feeling could not be described in words. Just watching Yuan Ling Xuan's face paled into white, then darkening from white into black, then returning again into white, was already so very marvelous.

  Yet Baili Jia Jue was as before, appeared as if the matter was of no concern to himself, the side of his face was so clean, it's almost impossible to see his pores.

  Yuan Ling Xuan was thoroughly enraged!

  His left-hand tightly clenched then turned upwards, a swish sound crisply echoed!

  The long whip in his hand made a swish sound as it took shape. Sharp thorns covered the whip's body, radiating a yellow light.

  "My god, gold rank! This is the first time I've seen a gold rank from the legends!"

  "Don't tell me this is a gift an heir of one of the four great clan's born with! Too incredible!"

  Hearing the two words, gold rank, Master Tu Lao turned towards the stage and took a look. That's no doubt gold rank. Even though its radiance was still very weak, however, that kind of sharpness wasn't something anyone was capable of resisting. It seemed that this time, the Inferior Compound, a dark horse that performed beyond everyone's expectations, was bound to suffer defeat.

  Yuan Ling Xuan relished soaking up the sighs and laments bubbling forth from all sides, the corners of his mouth perked up as he laughed evilly, pleased with himself. "What now? Want to beg for mercy?"

  Everyone turned their heads to look at Baili Jia Jue. Ordinarily, under these circ.u.mstances, competitors would give up on the match. After all, the opponent was actually gold ranked!

  Facing such ardent gazes, Baili Jia Jue naturally didn't disappoint. His left hand straightened his sleeves, as he leisurely glanced sideways. "Beg for mercy? Are you talking about yourself?"

  It's precisely this attitude, that made the pit of Yuan Ling Xuan's stomach flare up. His palm moved, only the whip suddenly coming to life could be seen as it transformed into a long bla
ck snake. Its sharp tip was even hissing and spitting a snake tongue!

  Without exception, everyone in the audience were overwhelmed with shock. How high must his martial qi be, to be able to transform an armament's appearance, undulating as if alive. How was this a martial qi competition. It's practically a bloodbath!

  At this very moment, there was only one thought in everyone's mind, and that was that Baili Jia Jue was going to die!

  Chapter 164 - Incomparably Dashing

  A long snake entering the heavens, in the blink of an eye, changed into a python, its ferocious mouth of a predator, dove down from the sky!

  The speed of that kind of attack was incredibly fast, its aura impressive, simply the same as sending its victim straight to hell!

  Not to mention an earth rank martial artist, even an equivalent gold rank, facing such a huge python, would run nonstop!

  Baili Jia Jue's entire head was buried in the python's mouth, and looked as if the python's fangs was going to rip his head apart!

  Just when everyone was just about frightened out of their wits, Baili Jia Jue slowly opened his eyes. The originally black colored pupils seemed to pass through layers of pure, layers of clean golden light, aimed at the huge serpent's eyes!

  The marble under his feet, unable to resist this intense force, already split open into veins after veins of cracks!

  The huge serpent's fangs eventually completely enclosed him and thoroughly swallowed Baili Jia Jue into its stomach!

  Yuan Ling Xuan complacently smiled, however...in the next second, his pair of eyes that always looked down on people continuously flickered violently.

  Because of that rising smoke within the ruins, the one cowering backwards unexpectedly wasn't Baili Jia Jue, but rather that armament he was so proud of? !

  How's this possible? !

  What the hell did that guy do!

  Silence, dead silence!

  The entire audience was stupefied. Their gaping mouths were bigger than a chicken egg. The expression on their faces was exceedingly incredulous. After a short period of time, gasping breaths, similar to a windmill, sounded out.
