Chapter 524 - The Past of Shui Yue (1/2)

The atmosphere around him froze in an instant. By right, this person was younger than Xiao Chen, and had arrived later. He should be addressing Xiao Chen as Senior Brother. But he still made it very clear by turning up late, as if he was afraid that others did not know that he was intentionally out to provoke Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen became more alert. There was a different aura on this person, and he could not sense the depth of his cultivation at all. At this time, a senior disciple in the distance exclaimed, “Is it Beigong Qin? The Beigong Qin who made it into the Earth Ranking list two days ago?”

Beigong Qin hid the alert look in his eyes and smiled faintly. “I heard that Junior Brother Xiao refused to come to our Purple Thunder Pavilion a few days ago?”

Xiao Chen glanced behind him and did not see Jiang Qianqian and Yumu Shisan. They must have gone straight to the senior disciple’s cultivation area, because of Baili Xiaohualuo.

“If you have something to say, just say it.”

Beigong Qin smiled and said, “Junior Brother, don’t get me wrong. Senior Brother was just a little curious. Why did you choose to stay in a… a place without any future?”

“What does that have to do with you?” Xiao Chen’s tone remained ice-cold.

Beigong Qin shrugged and suddenly waved his hand in the air. The mist dissipated and three columns of light appeared in front of the Mystic Sky Pavilion. Everyone immediately looked in that direction and saw that the name Beigong Qin was listed in the 27th position on the Earth Ranking.

“It’s real! It’s him, Beigong Qin!”

This time, all the senior disciples in the distance exclaimed aloud. A few days ago, they heard that a new person had made it to the top 36 positions of the Earth Ranking, which was unbelievable. Even the last cyan-badge disciple could not make it to the top 36 positions of the Earth Ranking, It was completely occupied by the last batch of purple-badge senior disciples. However, this white-badged new disciple had made it to the 27th ranking.

This was incredible. One should know that from the 36th position and below, there were still a lot of purple-badge senior disciples, it was unbelievable that the Mystic Power of a newcomer could directly surpass that of many senior disciples.

There were constant exclamations all around. This would really cause a great hoo-ha in the Cloud Mist Academy. This person would definitely attract the attention of the Three Perfected Immortal. He might even be able to defeat the first person on the Heaven Ranking List in the future. Of course, this was only because they did not understand how terrifying the powers of the first person on the Heaven Ranking List was, and that was why they had these thoughts.

Beigong Qin took two steps forward, looked at Xiao Chen, then he smiled and said, “Did you see that? You are much weaker than me, so it is not my fault that you have been forced out of the list. You don’t have to be so hostile toward me. Even if I am not here, you will still be pushed out of the list…”

“Are you done talking…” Xiao Chen’s voice became a little gloomy.

Beigong Qin smiled, looked at the two groups of newcomers, and said, “Although you have been assigned to other areas, if you are willing to call me Senior Brother, then you can come to the area where I cultivate, at any time.”

It would be best if they could go to the First-class Cultivation Area. Many youngsters of the Broken Sword Pavilion and the Moon-watch Hall agreed and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother Beigong!”

Xiao Chen finally understood that this person known as Beigong Qin, likely had the same purpose of coming to the Cloud Mist Academy. Beigong Qin smiled and looked at the people on his side. “If you are willing to call me Senior Brother, then I will not stop you from coming to the first-class district to cultivate.”

As soon as he said that, many people were tempted. After all, they had been to the first-class district, which was totally different from the fourth-class district. Especially for the few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, at the moment, their eyes were flickering, as if they were trying to weigh something.

In their eyes, some of the disciples of the Purple Thunder Pavilion were even weaker than them in cultivation and qualification. Why should they be assigned to the fourth-class district? Was it because their teacher was Shui Yue and not the First Grandmaster?

“Haha.” Qin Tianyu sneered. “Any one of you who wants to acknowledge him as your Senior Brother, can leave.” Then, he looked at Xiao Chen. “Let’s go, Brother Chen.”

“Tsk!” The dozens of young boys and girls who had been following Xiao Chen all this while, spat at Beigong Qin. Then, they followed Xiao Chen and left.

There were still some people who were hesitant, but in the end, they still followed after the group. Only a dozen Nascent Soul Realm disciples remained in the same place.

Seeing that everyone had left, the dozen or so people cupped their hands toward Beigong Qin, smiled and said, “Senior Brother Beigong, please take care of us from now on.”

No one would laugh at them. This was how it was in the Cloud Mist Academy. It was almost impossible for them to survive alone. It was like a small scale Wastelands, which was the truth.

Xiao Chen’s group went to the teleportation formation. Along the way, there were still many senior disciples with cyan badges, talking about them. Most of the time, they were talking about what Shui Yue did, and how useless she was.

Xiao Chen clenched his fists tightly. He did not want to argue with this group of people. Many young boys and girls behind him lowered their heads and said nothing. They did not understand before, but now they finally understood. It turned out that the previous disciples from Wind-heeding Pavilion were all looked down upon by others. They were the worst…

When they were nearing the teleportation formation, a man wearing a purple badge suddenly appeared. Seeing the disciple who was 2 batches before them, all the new people in the Wind-heeding Pavilion were stunned. Xiao Chen frowned. The earlier incident had made him detest these senior disciples. He said coldly, “What is the matter?”

The man smiled gently and said, “Don’t get me wrong, Junior Brother. I’m your Senior Brother and I’m the disciple of the Third Grandmaster.”
