"Originally, I had no intention of killing you, but since you’re so eager to die, I shall oblige."
The young man in the blue robe slightly bent down, holding Yue Qingli’s head with his left hand, while his right hand ford a tight fist.
Endless spiritual energy gathered around his fist.
His fist tore through the surrounding space, forcefully smashing towards Yue Qingli’s head.
Just as it was about to hit the head, when only a few centiters separated them,
a light reprimand sounded from the side.
"Enough," Xu Zii said indifferently.
While his words sounded mild, they seed to carry an oppressive force with them.
The young man in the blue robe froze, unable to move no matter how he tried.
Yue Qingli took this opportunity to scramble up from the ground.
Looking at Xu Zii, he said despondently, "I lost."
"You have passed the test," Xu Zii said indifferently.
Yue Qingli suddenly looked up, staring incredulously at Xu Zii.
"I sent you to challenge them, not necessarily to win against him," Xu Zii replied indifferently.
"What I wanted was an attitude, just like you said, an attitude of betting everything, even life itself."
"I...," Yue Qingli took a deep breath, words on the tip of his tongue, but he was too excited to know what to say.
"Kneel down," Xu Zii said calmly.
"Ah," Yue Qingli was taken aback.
"Kneel and take as your master. If you don’t want to, pretend I never said it," Xu Zii stated plainly.
Yue Qingli was slightly astonished; he clearly hadn’t expected Xu Zii to say that.
"A useless master and a useless disciple make quite the spectacle!"
The previous young man in the blue robe, feeling that he had lost face because of Xu Zii, mocked from the side.
Although he thought Xu Zii might be stronger than himself, he estimated it couldn’t be by much.
Moreover, Xu Zii had broken the rules by intervening in the battle, which gave him the upper hand both morally and logically.
"Just now, you were all in a bluster about having a decisive battle with , and now you’re running away like a dog that has lost its ho.
People of the Third-Eye Demon Clan are all trash.
Forever trash."
Onlookers began to discuss openly at the scene unfolding.
"This young man appears to be only a little older than us, wanting to take disciples.
He’s really fooling around!"
"What’s so surprising about that? Birds of a feather flock together.
Trash always clusters with trash."
Ignoring the people around him, Xu Zii looked at Yue Qingli, quietly waiting for his response.
Yue Qingli slowly opened his eyes, which had been lightly shut, and after a mont of contemplation, he straightened his attire before kneeling down slowly.
"Disciple Yue Qingli hereby kowtows in acceptance of my master.
I hope my esteed master will accept .
Though naturally dim-witted, I am willing to strive to learn.
Those who birthed are my parents, and he who teaches is my master.
The grace of a teacher is like the sea, and Qingli will never forget it.
I will also work twice as hard in the future, so as not to tarnish my master’s reputation!"
Watching Yue Qingli kowtow with great respect,
the surrounding youngsters burst into laughter.
"This good-for-nothing really did take a master, I would have tried too if I knew he was this foolish."
"Clamoring for attention, just making a spectacle of himself."
......
Xu Zii paid no attention to others and instead rely waved his hand, saying with a faint smile, "Rise."
Yue Qingli stood up respectfully and moved to Xu Zii’s side.
In a low voice, he said, "Master, let’s go.
Let’s leave this place, and I’ll take you to our Third-Eye Demon Clan."
"Why leave this place?" Xu Zii asked indifferently.
"These people mocked us for no reason, shouldn’t they pay a price?"
"Teacher, this is Vermilion Academy," Yue Qingli said hesitantly.
Although he had taken Xu Zii as his ntor, he was just seizing any opportunity that ca his way.
To say he truly believed in Xu Zii one hundred percent, he wasn’t there yet.
After all, Xu Zii was too young.
If it were an elder with an extraordinary temperant, perhaps it would be more convincing.
"Now that you have beco my disciple, as your teacher, I’ll give you a gift as a eting present," Xu Zii said indifferently.
Seeing the puzzled look in Yue Qingli’s eyes, Xu Zii slowly stepped forward.
He said to the many young people present, "To those who were just mocking from the sidelines, I give you two options.
First, apologize and compensate with sothing that satisfies ."
"I’ll take the second option," Xu Zii’s words were not yet finished when a young man beside him shouted with a playful smile.
"The second option is to be killed by ."
As Xu Zii’s voice fell, his figure instantly disappeared from sight.
When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of the young man who had just shouted.
Without giving the young man a chance to struggle, Tyrant Shadow unsheathed and split him in half.
"Did you think I was joking with you?" Xu Zii’s gaze swept over everyone present, he said coldly.
In a mont, they watched a body fall before their very eyes.
Everyone fell silent as if chilled to the bone.
"You dare to kill soone in front of Vermilion Academy’s gates, disrupting the recruitnt test, this is a provocation to the authority of the Holy Institute," a young man said.
"Have none of you ever died before?" Xu Zii turned his head, lightly laughing.
......
"What’s going on here?" The situation also caught the attention of people from Vermilion Academy.
The six teachers in charge of recruitnt stood up and walked over here.
"Teacher, soone is causing trouble here and has openly killed soone," soone shouted.
The six teachers walked up to the front and frowned at the situation in the middle of the field.
One of the elders looked at Xu Zii and asked flatly.
"Did you kill this person?"
"I killed him, so what?" Xu Zii replied indifferently.
"Then you must co with us," the elder said, gesturing grandly with his hand as the might of the Esteem Vein Realm burst forth from him.
"Ant," Xu Zii snorted coldly.
He didn’t even need to make a move; the snort alone was infused with the oppressive might of the Saint Vein.
There was a loud "bang."
The elder from the academy retreated more than three steps, grunting as he couldn’t hold back and blood spurted from his mouth.
His complexion turned terrifyingly pale.
"Teacher Yu," soone exclaid.
The elder looked deeply at Xu Zii, his eyes filled with wariness.
He glanced at the other teachers beside him, shook his head slightly as a signal not to act rashly.
"A true powerhouse,
Just one sound, and I didn’t even stand a chance to resist."
"Where does your honor hail from?" The elder asked with a slight formal tone.
"Why cause trouble on the day of Vermilion Academy’s recruitnt?"
"Where I co from is of no importance," Xu Zii stated flatly.
"Moreover, I am not the one causing trouble; it was they who mocked first.
Isn’t teaching them a lesson justified?"
The elder looked around at the many students and seeing many of them with their heads lowered, not speaking, he had his answer.
"A lesson is one thing, but you shouldn’t have gone as far as to kill," he said.
