Helian Wei Wei took a glance at him, "How long more?"
"The dean didn't say anything about this," The Seventh Prince followed Helian Wei Wei as she moved, his short legs staggered.
Helian Wei Wei reached her hand and removed the bowls from his head. She asked, "Where is the dean?"
"He's sighing," Seventh Prince threw all the bowls into the old well with a poker-face, "I am too naughty recently, he has no idea how to tell the Retired Emperor."
Helian Wei Wei was speechless...
"You know that too?" Someone laughed helplessly behind them.
Helian Wei Wei turned around and saw Tu Sufeng walking toward them slowly in his long robe. He did not look any different than usual and he was as elegant as before. The passing of time had made him look more convincing.
There was a steaming hot meat-stuffing bun in his hand, obviously for the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince ran over to him, grabbed the bun and took a big bite. While he was eating, he said, "I was just being competitive."
"Just being competitive?" Tu Sufeng rubbed his forehead with his long fingers, "You're so competitive until you broke the arms of all the young masters in the Superior Compound?"
Seventh Prince raised his head with the bun in his hands and said in a serious tone, "I am just trying to save them from getting injured more severely by my Third Brother."
Tu Sufeng could not deny what he said. Moreover, all of the students who had just enrolled recently were not following the academy's rules, this caused him a headache. "All of you only know how to create trouble." Especially the one who cared about nobody else, it was impossible for him to restrain himself.
Once the Yuan family retired, the Liang family started to intervene in the yard's matters, mostly complaining about Baili Jia Jue.
Those people knew nothing about Baili Jia Jue's identity. They tried to win him over to their side during the internal test last time but they failed.
Therefore, that was the reason why the people from the Liang family and the teachers of the academy were complaining about Baili Jia Jue.
Luckily it was Tu Sufeng who was handling all these matters. If another person was in his position right now, the person would have collapsed from stress.
Such a competent person must be accepted into the Battle Spirit Forces.
Without other words, Helian Wei Wei smiled and showed him the Military Seal in her hand!
Tu Sufeng sight paused, "What's this?"
"I would like to discuss what happened in the Forest of Fantasy with you," Helian Wei Wei kept the military seal and continued, "as well as the internal rules of the Battle Spirit Forces."
Tu Sufeng smiled, "I don't know much about the Battle Spirit Forces, but I can talk to you about the Forest of Fantasy."
Helian Wei Wei took a glance at him, "I have news with me which might affect the safety of all the citizens in Kyoto but I can only tell that to the members of the Battle Spirit Forces."
The Seventh Prince was listening to the a.d.u.l.t's conversation beside him while he took a big bite out of his bun. He continued looking at them with his eyes wide.
Tu Sufeng did not hold back this time. He looked at Helian Wei Wei and smiled, "You are indeed smart. Go on, you are the second who came to me today."
"The first one was Yun Biluo." Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrow.
Tu Sufeng laughed, "It was her, but she was in the wrong direction."
Helian Wei Wei kept quiet and followed Tu Sufeng into his study room.
Tu Sufeng turned the pen holder on his wooden table around skillfully and the wooden shelves opened to the side.
A long and never-ending hallway appeared in front of Helian Wei Wei...
Chapter 307 - The Perfect Room For Camouflage
Tu Sufeng brought over an oil lamp, raised it with his hand and walked slowly into the hallway. "A long time ago, the White Academy did not look like how it is now. Nobody knows that there is a huge palace hidden underneath the academy. This palace is where the Battle Spirit Forces are."
There was a loud boom when he finished his sentence.
The torches on both the left and right sides were all lit up. Helian Wei Wei could see her own reflection under her feet due to the marble floor tiles. Every corner of the palace reflected the luxurious taste of the owner of the palace.
A total of 38 huge stone columns were supporting the dome.
Tu Sufeng laughed a bit and pointed, "Look over there."
Helian Wei Wei looked over. She saw thousands of soldiers eating or sharpening their weapons and she cried out, "What?". The size of the group was astonishing.
It was not a palace, it was clearly an underground ancient city!
Helian Wei Wei looked back at the Seventh Prince to share her astonishment with him.
But the only thing the Seventh Prince cared about was the braised pork which the soldiers were eating; she got enough of this!
"Although it's a bit late, still, welcome to the Battle Spirit Forces," Tu Sufeng looked back with his slender figure, "Wait for a minute, the newly joined members will be here."
Helian Wei Wei crossed her arms and said, "I thought the first one who came to you will be rewarded." Otherwise, she would not be so energetic.
"Of course," Tu Sufeng smiled gently, "I will be your mentor from now on. The others will have their own mentors as well."
Helian Wei Wei sneered, "What a good reward."
"Here they are," Tu Sufeng looked over to a direction.
A crack appeared at the cave entrance not far away and moonlight shone in.
Four figures showed up.
Four?
Helian Wei Wei frowned and looked over again. Aside from Yun Biluo, there was a very good-looking man who walked in together with them. It was not an exaggeration to describe him as beautiful because he had the skin fairer than ladies, not feminine but very charming.
The man laughed as soon as he saw her. "Such a coincidence."
Does he know me?
Helian Wei Wei paused and tried to remember if she knew such a charming man.
"What? You have forgotten me?" The man held his chin with a dry smile.
Helian Wei Wei looked at him in all seriousness for a while before a blurry figure appeared in her mind, "Little Bully?"
"That's me. Your eyesight is not that bad." At the same time, he lowered his head and looked at the Seventh Prince's small figure, "Why is he here?"
The Seventh Prince squinted, "Cousin Han Yu? Is the curse of your family broken?"
"Yes." Han Yu raised his chin evilly. "What do you think? Am I handsome?"
The Seventh Prince scratched his bald head and looked up and down at him.
Han Yu stood straight.
"Not bad, but my third brother is more handsome." Seventh Prince looked away as soon as he had finished his sentence ignorantly!
The corners of Han Yu's mouth twitched.
Helian Wei Wei tried not to laugh, wondering what Baili Jia Jue did to Little Bully at the City of martial practice which caused Han Yu to hate him until now. He could not have chained Han Yu on the bed…
But it was hard to say since he even made him wear a dress.
"The Seventh Prince is still so adorable." Yun Biluo walked over as well, staring at the energetic Little Bald Head.
But Yun Biluo was smart as well. She would just smile gently no matter how others responded to her.
Helian Wei Wei moved her lips a bit and did not talk to anyone.
Tu Sufeng waited until they finished chatting, only then he spoke with a gentle tone, "Seems like all of you knew each other already, which is great. In the following days, all of you are going to be tested together. The test consists of three parts, those who passed all the tests will become an official member of the Battle Spirit Forces. The test will be happening at the White Academy. From now on, you have to stay alert at all times as this test can be very cruel, it can even take away your life. So, whoever wants to leave, you may leave now."
Everyone kept quiet.
Tu Sufeng smiled, "Alright, if there isn't any objection, each of you can now follow your mentor to choose your own room. This room is not your bedroom, there will be stuff which you will need for your missions placed in the rooms."
After that, he took a glance at Helian Wei Wei and the Seventh Prince, "Follow me, both of you."
Helian Wei Wei nodded her head and followed. Yun Biluo smiled toward her when she passed her by.
Helian Wei Wei had met this kind of person before. She was polite and gentle but this did not mean that she would be friendly. On the contrary, Helian Wei Wei had to beware of her.
"Third aunt." The Seventh Prince saw this and stopped. He talked in a strict tone, "Do not talk to strangers, my Third Brother will be unhappy about this."
She felt as if she was just been taught a lesson.
Moreover, the one standing over there is the one your Third Brother truly cares about.
"Let's go," He swung his sleeve; he could not be more dominant than this!
Helian Wei Wei was amused but followed.
The little one stopped and looked at her, reaching his hands for her.
Helian Wei Wei laughed while she bent over to carry him.
The little one leaned his head onto Helian Wei Wei's shoulder, his vision full of warning still locked onto Yun Biluo.
Yun Biluo looked puzzled as she lowered her head but then she smiled again.
The Seventh Prince said nothing, keeping a straight face.
She pretended to be close to him.
All because of his Third Brother.
The little one turned his head a bit and talked to Helian Wei Wei in a cool tone, "If you come across this kind of woman again, you can tell my Third Brother to chase her out straight away. She can't cook anyway, it is useless to keep her."
Helian Wei Wei's mouth twitched, "Looks like cooking skills are really important. It can even be the key to keeping a life…"
"Sure it is!" the little one said in a serious tone.
Tu Sufeng who was walking in front of them sighed many times. He is such a food junkie!
"We are here, you can go in first and see if there is anything that you need."
Tu Sufeng pushed the wooden door open with his slender fingers, he then stood aside to let them enter. The room was not very spacious but it still looked luxurious!
Delicate accessories were laid out row by row on the rosewood desk, a bronze mirror as tall as a person was placed at the center. There were not only colorful ancient long dresses on the left and right sides, but there were also high-quality scarves and countless hair ornaments.
These were just the ladies' commodities. There were men's robes for different occupations, from the top to the lowest grade ones on the other side. They had all that was necessary...
Chapter 308 - The Third Prince
Seeing these things, almost immediately, Helian Wei Wei thought of that room filled with camouflage equipment in Young Master Tang's Villa. She could not help but lift her gaze to look at Tu Sufeng, unable to hide her admiration.
"These are all yours." Tu Sufeng lifted one of the dangling ornaments worn by women, shaking it gently.
Shoot!
A sudden sound exploded.
Three silver needles could be seen penetrating through the wall with extraordinary strength.
Helian Wei Wei's thin lips curled up. "Not bad."
"It is a little lackl.u.s.ter compared to your multi-morphing umbrella." Tu Sufeng's words were full of charm.
Helian Wei Wei flexed her fingers and picked up a few things, swiveling them left and right. She smiled and said, "They all have their uses." Such a complete and refined armory, befitting of the world-renowned Battle Spirit Forces. With all this equipment, she could definitely move around stealthily and kill with no trace.
"So could you share what you know now?" Tu Sufeng's eyes expression was indifferent.
Helian Wei Wei put the stuff back, "It has been a little chaotic in the Forest of Fantasy recently. Some have been disregarding the rules and secretly slaughtering in mass."
Hearing this, Tu Sufeng's thick brows furrowed deeply, "Slaughtering in mass?"
"That's right." Helian Wei Wei stopped and added, "They seem to think that this is a way to prolong their lives."
Tu Sufeng looked at her, "Who are they?"
Helian Wei Wei paused for thought and said, "The elders of the four major families."
Tu Sufeng squinted at her, "Do you know the consequences of your words?"
"Of course," Helian Wei Wei smiled. "You may investigate first, Dean Tu. There is no loss on your part anyway."
Tu Sufeng lowered his voice, "You are right that there won't be any losses. Yet to the Battle Spirit Forces, it is a challenge. If we offend the four families because of this, it will affect the forces' future."
"I thought the forces would not succ.u.mb to any authority," Helian Wei Wei lifted her chin slightly.
Tu Sufeng looked at her stance and lowered his gaze. He pulled out a piece of paper and passed it to Helian Wei Wei. "We obtained this piece of information last month. We don't know what is going on in the Forest of Fantasy. Not only were the sacred beasts slaughtered massively, but magical beasts that have never left the forest also started to move toward the city unwisely. A while ago, we sent a few men to investigate this, but none has returned. If the four major families are involved in this, things will be difficult."
Helian Wei Wei turned the paper over and saw that it detailed everything strange that happened in the Forest recently.
Speaking of that, since the day she met Whitey, it had told her someone was very keen on killing it.
It should have begun since then, the chaos in the Forest of Fantasy.
But to have the ability to seclude this chaos under the pretense of peace, how meticulous is this person?
Helian Wei Wei closed the piece of paper, "I see that Dean Tu has believed me from the start."
"This is no trivial matter." Tu Sufeng lengthened his gaze. "Once news gets out, it might worsen things. Since you are a new member, focus on passing the test first if you want to take charge of this."
Helian Wei Wei smiled, "Then what does the dean think of this Military Seal I have?"
"I retain my stance. Let's talk after you pass the test." Tu Sufeng smiled at her warmly, in a split second he had become that cunning tough-to-manage Dean of White Academy. "I suddenly thought of something. Since it has long passed the academy's curfew, and you are still wandering outside at this time… According to the academy's rules, you have to add an extra ten pieces of silver to your fees next month."
With that, Tu Sufeng sauntered out of the room.
Helian Wei Wei looked at Tu Sufeng's figure as he was leaving and massaged her throbbing temples. "I've never met someone who loves money so much."
"Are you in a position to comment on that?" Yuan Ming spurned.
Helian Wei Wei ignored him and lowered her gaze at the little one, "Where is your gear?"
"Here." The little one moved his palm and revealed his black wooden stick.
Helian Wei Wei took it over and examined it left and right. "The attacking potential is at 90%, not bad. Once we get back to the yard, I'll adjust it again for you."
"Alright." Besides eating, the Little Seventh Prince was a man of few words.
Hearing this, Tu Sufeng who was leaving turned back suddenly, "Oh yeah, during the exam you will be tested in duos. The winning party will be rewarded."
Naturally, Tu Sufeng saw through her and his smile grew wider, "With every win, I will add ten thousand pieces of silver."
"When can we start?" Helian Wei Wei's attitude changed immediately.
The irritated Little Seventh Prince glanced at her deeply.
Helian Wei Wei ruffled the little one's hair, "With the prize money, I can get you some meat."
Meat?!
The seventh prince lifted his head and repeated after Wei Wei seriously, "When can we star
t?"
Tu Sufeng was very satisfied with the fighting ability of these two and uttered lightly, "Anytime." He paused again, "Besides the two people that you saw today, there will be another two external teams. Don't let our academy down."
Hearing this the Little Seventh Prince smirked, "We'll take every man down."
How arrogant!
Speaking of that, Yun Biluo was here.
Would the Third Prince be very disappointed if he could not find her?
The night wind blew over.
At a corner of the yard, Baili Jia Jue sat on a wooden chair, clutching onto that untangled long chain. His gaze swept past Shadow, who was awake, but he said nothing.
But the atmosphere was tenser than ever.
His expression turned from indifferent to even colder.
At first, he thought that Helian Wei Wei was kidnapped.
Until he saw that there were no clothes on Shadow, his dark eyes froze completely.
Of course, who could take her away?
Baili Jia Jue's hand on the iron lock tightened.
Why is she always running away from me?
Is it because of that lad surnamed Tang?
Or does she no longer see me like the clean freak deskmate she remembered? Does she now feel that my heart is malicious, and my means are dirty, so she can no longer tolerate my methods? Does that mean she can no longer accept me, Baili Jia Jue anymore?
His tolerance of her and his repeated compromises were nothing compared to her negligence toward him.
This was really… unforgivable.
Baili Jia Jue buried his face in one hand, the other clasping the long chains tightly, his body trembling slightly…
Chapter 309 - Destroying Hei Zhu
A dozen of shadow guards stood quietly around him.
The whole house was filled with a deadly silence.
When the defiant Hei Zhu came to find Shadow, this was the scene she saw.
She did not know that Baili Jia Jue was in the White Academy as well. The figure at the center looked exactly like her master. Her eyes widened at the sight.
