Chapter 12 Illusion Stream Puppet Master (1/2)

“The academy permits teachers to threaten students?” Bai Xiaofei’s brows knit tightly together as he asked rhetorically with a serious expression.

“The academy encourages teachers to use different methods to teach their own students. I’m completely capable of saying that it was for the sake of tempering your obedience.” Xue Ying used her power for personal use with a serious expression on her face, and it revealed that she wasn’t a simple figure as well.

“Obedience? Don’t think that I came from some small village and don’t know anything. We’re in an academy, not an army, so why would we need that?” Bai Xiaofei laughed lightly, and his expression seemed to be saying ‘I’ve already seen through you’.

But, Xue Ying didn’t reveal the slightest panic this time.

“Yes, you really are from a small village. Could it be that you haven’t heard that more than 60% of those who graduate from Starnet Academy enter the army of the various Empires?” As she returned a disdainful expression to him, Xue Ying finally occupied the advantage for the first time.

“Hello, Big Sister Xue!” However, Xue Ying hadn’t even enjoyed her complacency when the words she’d looked forward to for so long had drifted out from Bai Xiaofei’s mouth.

But, for some unknown reason, Xue Ying didn’t feel any delight from Bai Xiaofei’s submission, and she felt frustrated instead.

However, Xue Ying didn’t have any reason to continue making it difficult for Bai Xiaofei any longer.

“Clean up the classroom and repair the door before the next student comes in, otherwise, you can wait to receive death!” As she glared coldly at Bai Xiaofei, Xue Ying who followed the principle of creating a reason when she had no reason to make things difficult for Bai Xiaofei had given him a ‘difficult problem’.

But, the plot didn’t develop towards the direction she envisioned.

“Big Sister Xue, I’m done.” Bai Xiaofei who wasn’t out of breath or even faintly flushed stood before Xue Ying whose face was ashen, and he’d completed the task with skill and ease.

Earlier, while Bai Xiaofei was working, Xue Ying had looked out countless times yet not to mention their class, even the entire ‘commoners district’ didn’t have a single visitor.

“Exactly how good was your results? Could it be that you were the first?” Xue Ying’s voice was filled with disbelief as she scanned Bai Xiaofei who was before her once more.

“If nothing unexpected happened, then I should be. After all, no one had arrived at the entrance when I entered it.” Bai Xiaofei smiled lightly as he made a slightly modest remark.

“But, why would the first be sent here? You ought to have gone to the excellent student….” Xue Ying spoked halfway before swallowing the rest because being the Head Teacher of the worst class in the entire academy wasn’t something that deserved to be mentioned frequently.

But, who was Bai Xiaofei? A few words of Xue Ying’s were already sufficient for him to confirm what he’d suspected for a long time.

“It’s nothing, I just went to see Vice Principal Luo during the final test.” As he spoke about it casually, Bai Xiaofei didn’t feel too great of a sense of loss because there wasn’t too much difference between a class of excellent students or inferior students to him.

It’s fine so long as I don’t starve to death!

“What about Vice Principal Luo….” As she spoke, Xue Ying’s eyes suddenly opened wide like saucers as she stared at Bai Xiaofei with an expression of disbelief.

“You’re surnamed Bai yet you actually dared to go see her!!!”

“Err…. Right, you probably didn’t know….” Her surprised vanished in the blink of an eye as Xue Ying had found an explanation in the first possible moment.

“It isn’t like how you’re thinking. Someone warned me that she hates people that are surnamed Bai to the extreme.” Xue Ying’s explanation hadn’t even been firmly established when Bai Xiaofei instantly struck an explosive blow to it, causing Xue Ying to be dazed.

“You knew yet you still went?! Are you an idiot?!” As she looked at Bai Xiaofei as if he was an idiot, Xue Ying had already started to doubt Bai Xiaofei’s intelligence.

“Don’t you feel that it’s extremely interesting like this?” Bai Xiaofei asked excitedly yet Xue Ying shook her head lightly.
