Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future
Chapter 41 - A Challenge From The Second Echelon? Bring It On!Chapter 41: A Challenge From The Second Echelon? Bring It On!
“So you’re saying that the school’s decision is wrong?” The principal raised an eyebrow. There was a hint of impatience in his tone.
The rankings of the Echelon students were decided by the school’s board of chancellors. Even the title was chosen by voting after a period of careful consideration. The reason why they placed Shen Fei at the top was because they saw his powerful ability, and his potential to improve.
The students in front of him were all outstanding. However, none of them had the ability to grow nor compete against Shen Fei. The principal had been watching the two wonderful battle recordings repeatedly, even until today.
This was also the reason why everyone decided on Shen Fei as First Echelon. Their visions were set for the future, whereas the students could only see the present.
It was not the student’s place to refute the chancellors.
“Principal, please believe me. I didn’t mean it like that.”
Luo Jin pushed his glasses up his nose bridge and bowed in front of the principal in a refined manner.
“I just feel that someone cheated in this competition for the Echelon title. This is very unfair to us Echelon students who came in through the normal way. Moreover”—as he said this, Luo Jin deliberately glared at Shen Fei threateningly—”Shen Fei is different from us.
“We’re all Beastmasters with only one spirit beast, and only Shen Fei has two spirit beasts. The second one is even a legendary dragon!
“Principal, you have to think this through. Our cultivation talents should be the deciding factor. Someone like Shen Fei can only rely on his spirit beasts. It’s easy to take the exam, but with his unstable foundation, he’ll be easily knocked down by the top students from the other colleges!”
“That’s right, principal!” The surrounding students who had long been unhappy with Shen Fei immediately started to rally behind Luo Jin.
“I think Luo Jin’s words make sense. Look at most of us. Didn’t we get our Echelon titles by virtue of our talents?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Shen Fei is relying on a rare spirit beast. This, in and of itself, is very unfair to us.”
“If we had such a spirit beast, we’d also be First Echelons!”
Everyone looked at Shen Fei with sinister eyes. They have long disliked Shen Fei.
Originally, he thought that if he did not see it, he would not be bothered by them. But now, he had become the First Echelon, and geniuses like them had been ruthlessly trampled under his feet.
How could they easily swallow this?
“Then what do you want, Young Master Luo?”
“What I want is very simple, Principal!” Luo Jin pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and looked at the Golden Key in the principal’s hand with a burning gaze. “All of us will compete again. We’ll use our victories and defeats to compete for the rankings again, and the quality of the cultivation room!”
Shen Fei glanced coldly at everyone present.
‘These people can’t really be thinking that I advanced to First Echelon with just the help of a Three-clawed Golden Dragon, right?’
Even if he only had his Flame Owl, he could still knock the teeth out of these students before him!
The principal clenched the key in his hand and regarded Luo Jin coolly. ‘This child of the Luo family is quite unreasonable.’
There was only one year left until the final exam. Time was already so tight. If it were the elites of other academies, they would have already cut the crap and immediately holed themselves up in the rooms they were assigned to and started cultivating… Yet Luo Jin still wanted to start a fight among their own students here!
The principal frowned. A ten-person competition seemed simple. But what if a contestant’s spirit beast was injured during the competition? Or what if it died?
If that happened, they would have lost half of their Echelon students before they even had the chance to take the entrance exam! They would fight to the death over this matter?! How short-sighted!
“Put away your jealousy!” The principal looked at Luo Jin in disgust. “Instead of thinking about such trivial things, hurry up and get your keys according to your assigned rankings. Go to your cultivation rooms and concentrate on your cultivation!
“The city examination is near! Don’t you even dare think about anything else! You should focus on your future cultivation and bring glory to the school and the city. Instead, you’re thinking about internal strife. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
However, the surrounding students stood up straight and proud. There was no trace of remorse on their faces. After a long moment, no one came to take their keys. The atmosphere was frozen in place.
“What, you’re not satisfied?”
The students looked at each other and then nodded their heads fiercely in unison. The principal’s face darkened.
These students had obviously been corrupted by Luo Jin’s crooked ways.
‘I thought Luo Jin was the only bad apple, but I didn’t expect that, other than Shen Fei, the whole barrel had been spoiled!’
‘What kind of guidance have the teachers been giving these students?’
Luo Jin looked at the crowd and could not help but feel excited. Now, he was the one who was in control of the situation!
It was not enough to just shake the students’ minds, he wanted to use this opportunity to force the principal to make a new choice!
“Principal, please listen to me! Shen Fei only managed to become First Echelon by relying on his Count-rank Three-clawed Golden Dragon. I request a match against him. He can only use his Flame Owl to fight me! If I win. The best cultivation room will be mine!”
Luo Jin smirked. Against Shen Fei’s Three-clawed Golden Dragon, he really did not have the slightest confidence. However, if it was only against his ordinary Flame Owl. The advantage would be much greater. After all, his spirit beast was powerful, and has the water attribute. It would be easy to deal with the fire-attribute Flame Owl…
“This is simply nonsense! Look at what you’re saying!” The principal grimaced. ‘This brat’s calculations were simply all over the place!’
While Shen Fei held the upper hand, Luo Jin would whine like a weakling! But once Shen Fei’s gambit is taken out of the picture, he would jump for the chance to tear Shen Fei apart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘Looting a burning house, huh?’
“You gave a good speech, Luo Jin, but I don’t care.”
The principal sneered. He straightaway shoved the key into Shen Fei’s hand in front of everyone.
So what if these students were defiant? He was the principal here. He was the one who called the shots here!
As for the state assessment, it was fine as long as one person got first place. Anyone who scored lower than that were usually forgotten, so they were not important at all.
Whether they want to use the cultivation rooms or not was up to them! At this point, the principal decided to rescind his offer.
“The rest of you. If you don’t want a cultivation room, you can find your own way to cultivate.”
After saying this, the principal withdrew the remaining keys and was about to turn and leave when, at this moment, Shen Fei grabbed his arm.
“Principal, please wait a moment. I have something to discuss with you.”
“Speak, then, what’s the matter?” The principal looked at Shen Fei with a more pleasant expression.
‘Shen Fei is also outstanding, reasonable, and powerful. He was much better than this bunch of rats.’
“Do you still lack cultivation resources or cultivation techniques? The school will do its best to provide you with the things you need!”
Shen Fei shook his head. “I don’t want any of that.”
The principal looked at Shen Fei with a puzzled expression. “Then, what do you want?”
“Principal, please agree to Luo Jin’s request!” Shen Fei’s eyes were like lit torches; the battle spirit in his eyes was burning. “I’m willing to accept his challenge!”
