Watching Фэн Юань and Xiao Ji effortlessly sweep through the besieging students, Ци Чэнь wasn’t surprised at all. However, he noticed that after consecutive victories, something seemed off with the other side.
"Stop!"
The teacher, who had been silently hiding beside them, suddenly shouted. The vines on the Thousand-Year Vine Turtle next to him separated the students who were still fighting like sturdy arms. Even the Укротитель зверейs couldn’t deal with the Rare Level Thousand-Year Vine Turtle. Seeing someone injured while others continued their aggressive attacks, Фэн Юань sighed, and his weapon transformed again. He looked at Xiao Ji in the sky and said,
"Xiao Ji! Get ready!"
Seeing the special black longbow in Фэн Юань’s hand, Xiao Ji understood his intention, nodded, and hovered at low altitude. The next moment, an arrow shot toward the sky, and Xiao Ji suddenly flapped his wings, spreading black mist downward with the wind. Rain of arrows fell to the ground just before the black mist, with the deeply embedded arrows in the ground emitting white light and linking together with chains of white light.
"What’s going on here?"
Agunas, coming out of the Пространство Gate, found this scene strange. Was this a Божественный зверь Technique? And an uncontrollable one at that. What was this guy thinking, using such an ultimate move on the crowd?
"Interesting, is your academy life all about constant battles?"
Veronia, who followed closely, chuckled. At this time, the black mist reached the ground, and everyone enveloped in it felt powerless. Even their Укротитель зверейs were similarly affected, with their prepared and released ultimate moves extinguishing in the black mist.
"Looks like this move isn’t bad~"
The black longbow transformed into a pitch-black long spear, spun a few times in Фэн Юань’s hand, and then struck the ground. He looked at Xiao Ji in the sky, who rapidly dove down beside him. The chains emitting white light seemed to be purifying the black mist, which faded and vanished quickly near the chains.
"What are you doing?"
Agunas waved a claw, and an invisible force pulled the black mist away, disappearing in front of everyone. The teacher hurriedly rushed forward to check on the fallen students’ condition, and Фэн Юань shrugged, saying,
"Using the force of the Land of Death to forcibly clear their power, otherwise, if the fight continued, the academy would be hard-pressed to explain. Tsk, these people, when they can’t win, they play dirty."
Glancing at the students from class 1, Фэн Юань disdainfully commented. If he hadn’t noticed them going all out, he wouldn’t have suddenly acted, and neither would the teacher. The previous student conflicts were just minor skirmishes, which the academy allowed, and that’s why he had ignored it initially, but later, as the conflict escalated, and they began drawing blood, it became unacceptable.
Regardless, the academy would never allow such conflicts to expand to a degree causing serious harm. The teacher checked the students, finding them merely exhausted, and heaved a sigh of relief, giving Фэн Юань a complex look.
Shrugging, Фэн Юань said helplessly,
"You can’t blame me; you saw the scene just now. If I hadn’t done so, even you wouldn’t have been able to stop it in time, right?"
The teacher paused before speaking,
"You’re right, but now none of you can leave until it’s confirmed the conflict is completely resolved. It’s best to stay here and wait."
After saying this, he took out his phone to contact the teachers responsible for handling such matters. The academy had a wealth of experience dealing with situations like this. After all, it wasn’t the first or second time fights had broken out abruptly; sometimes, the academy even intentionally guided such occurrences.
"This... there won’t be any disciplinary action, right?"
Wu Dingwu asked hesitantly, worried. The other students’ faces changed when they heard his muttering; none of them wanted a disciplinary record in the first week of school. The students from class 1 glared at them in discontent, complaining incessantly. Фэн Юань glanced at the teacher who deliberately didn’t explain and said,
"I believe the academy won’t impose any punishment this time, right? Judging from the situation, it’s clear this isn’t your first encounter with such an event. Of course, if actual injuries had occurred just now, it would be a different story, wouldn’t it?"
"Ah, you’ve guessed it right. For typical conflicts, you can settle them privately through Укротитель зверей battles. However, only on the condition that no injuries result. Of course, there are many specific situations your teacher will explain in detail once the official school session begins."
"But for this student, you’re impressive to have managed to bring them all down single-handedly."
The teacher said, looking at Фэн Юань with amazement. Though those students were clearly newly enrolled freshmen, their numbers alone couldn’t be ignored. He himself wouldn’t have been able to quickly incapacitate them without causing harm. But the student before him did it with just one move.
"Hehe~"
"I see, you were preventing them from getting seriously hurt. However, what’s the situation exactly? I think you could explain it to me later."
Agunas floated forward and spoke. Seeing Agunas, the teacher was momentarily confused and scrutinized him intensely. After a while, he looked at Фэн Юань with a puzzled expression and asked,
"Could it be that you’re this year’s incoming freshman, Фэн Юань?"
"Huh? Am I that famous? Even you know my name."
"Someone favored by the Божественный зверьs, choosing not the top-tier academy of Great Xia Academy but joining our Maomu Academy instead — of course, we’d know."
The teacher laughed and said. He then glanced toward the small mountain behind them and commented,
"Speaking of which, I wasn’t expecting you to meet here in the first week. Normally, the most that happens is students from class 1 being prompted by a teacher to come here. But it’s not surprising; there must be someone in your class connected to upperclassmen, right?"
"See that mountain? Your first outdoor practical lesson will be conducted there. But for now, it’s best not to head there, not even if you’re in class 1. Of course, except for you."
He spoke, looking at Фэн Юань with a smile. With a Божественный зверь by his side, the small mountain was naturally no challenge for him. Ци Чэнь bravely asked, puzzled,
"Why? Is that place dangerous? But isn’t that where we have our classes?"
"Due to the dangerous environment, even if there are no Духовный зверь enemies, there are quite a few environmental hazards. Speaking of which, do you remember the storm we encountered at Бухта Вилт? That was a top-tier natural disaster. But even less severe than that, do you think you could avoid it?"
Crossing his arms, Фэн Юань spoke. Ци Чэнь thought for a moment and added,
"If that’s the case, could it be that the mountain is very unstable?"
"Can’t believe you guessed it right. You’re correct; the real danger in the back mountain doesn’t lie with Духовные звери but in the ever-changing environment. It’s a special environment the academy specially created."
The teacher nodded approvingly, saying this and then looking at Фэн Юань and Ци Чэнь behind him in amazement,
"If you’ve truly witnessed a natural disaster, you might have an advantage in the first outdoor practical lesson. Are you students from class 1?"
"No, we’re from class 3. How about it, isn’t it interesting?"
Фэн Юань took over the conversation, showing a bright smile, though it seemed slightly malicious. The teacher paused, then smiled wryly,
"I see. But this isn’t bad; at least, it’s not just class 1 and the other classes."
"Haven’t you said enough?! Looking down on us?!"
"Even if you’re the teacher, you can’t do that! Our class 1 consists of the best students in the grade. Are you saying we’re not as good as class 3?!"
Ignoring the protests from class 1 students, the teacher said coolly,
"Yet all of you were just taken down by him alone, weren’t you?"
These words left the group of students speechless. No matter what, the fact remained — they were powerless against Фэн Юань. However, his accompanying Укротитель зверей was merely at the Good Level, so how...
Ignoring those devastated students, the teacher turned to Фэн Юань, curious,
"How do you know about the situation in the back mountain? Did you guess it?"
"Yeah, if even they can’t face it alone, it surely wouldn’t be a Духовный зверь strength issue, since they have Rare Level Укротитель зверейs among them. I don’t believe the academy would initially create an opponent even a Rare Level can’t handle, nor would it be something about so-called team battle."
Shrugging, Фэн Юань said,
"The only possibility is the environment; if unfamiliar with it, the chance of injury isn’t low, maybe even danger if not careful. But I don’t quite understand — it’s just a small mountain. How many environmental traps could there be?"
"That, you’ll understand when you have your lessons."
The other person smiled enigmatically without explaining further. Фэн Юань didn’t press for more answers, knowing those things wouldn’t affect him anyway.
