Free Web NovelChapter 1012: Chapter 1012: Excited Watching Her Get Beaten Up
When Bai Xifeng finally arrived at the classroom, Ji Yuan had already been standing at the podium, waiting for quite some time.
"I thought you wanted to skip this theory class today." Ji Yuan said calmly.
His eyes tracked Bai Xifeng as she slumped into the room.
"Yes, but I actually want to skip the practical class too." Bai Xifeng replied with brutal honesty.
"That is not happening." Ji Yuan responded immediately, crushing her hopes without the slightest hesitation.
Bai Xifeng clicked her tongue helplessly. She already knew that would be his exact answer. Thus, she could only sit down and endure the tedious theory class quietly. Throughout the lecture, she forcefully held back her overwhelming sleepiness, fighting desperately to stop her eyelids from closing and her head from knocking directly onto the wooden table.
"Let us move to the training grounds for the practical class now." Ji Yuan finally announced, standing up and walking out of the classroom the exact moment the lesson ended.
Bai Xifeng dragged her feet unwillingly behind him, mourning her lack of freedom. Once they arrived at the wide-open training grounds, Ji Yuan suddenly paused, turning his sharp gaze toward the rustling bamboo forest nearby.
"There are some people standing outside our gate. Two of them happen to be yesterday’s students." Ji Yuan stated flatly.
"Oh... Some of my friends wanted to come over and watch how I fight." Bai Xifeng explained casually, waving her hand dismissively to signal it was no big deal.
"Hmm... Good. They can become your sparring partners for today. However, before that, you still need to receive personal instruction from me." Ji Yuan stated in his usual, unbothered deadpan tone.
"Teacher Ji, you just want an excuse to beat me up personally, right?!" Bai Xifeng shouted immediately, directly exposing his true intentions for all to hear.
Ji Yuan did not even bother answering her accusatory question. Instead, he simply raised his hand calmly, signalling the start of the practical class without another word.
At that exact moment, the Xie Family members stepped through the entrance as the heavy gate slowly creaked open. Ning Shoukai had also been dragged along with them. As usual, he had been entirely unwilling to follow the group over here, but Xie Lanying had threatened him mercilessly, warning him to come along unless he preferred to receive a beating from her instead. Left without any other choice, a defeated Ning Shoukai could only reluctantly follow the Xie Family members into the Inscriber Division.
The Xie Family members admired the beautiful, swaying bamboo forest as they walked through the scenic area. However, before long, a loud explosion echoed from deeper inside the grounds, causing all of them to widen their eyes in surprise. Realising the action had already begun, they quickened their pace before finally emerging from the edge of the bamboo forest.
The moment they stepped into the open, they were greeted by the shocking sight of Bai Xifeng flicking a rune high into the air. Violent winds instantly surged together, whipping around the training grounds in a fierce vortex.
Then, Ji Yuan countered, throwing out a rune of his own. Another violent storm immediately materialised, but this one was significantly more oppressive than the one Bai Xifeng had produced. The collision erupted with terrifying force, and the resulting shockwave sent Bai Xifeng flying backwards through the air.
While still airborne, Bai Xifeng rapidly threw out another rune, forcing her flying body to abruptly halt its momentum and descend sharply toward the earth. She had activated a gravity manipulation rune to control the forces surrounding her body. Under the sudden influence of the altered gravity, the violent winds could no longer sweep her away.
The moment Ji Yuan saw this clever manoeuvre, he rushed toward her at a frightening, blinding speed, slapping another rune directly onto the ground beneath her feet. Instantly, the earth trembled violently as thick stone walls rose upward, forming a sturdy prison that trapped Bai Xifeng completely inside.
However, Ji Yuan did not stop there. Utilising yet another rune, a massive torrent of water suddenly burst upward from the ground, rapidly filling the stone prison. This was clearly no ordinary water, as countless crackling strands of blue electricity surged violently throughout the liquid.
Bai Xifeng cried out in pain the moment her body made contact with the water. Torrential electric currents rushed through her, electrocuting her mercilessly. The unbearable, agonising shock caused her entire body to tremble violently.
Unable to endure the torture any longer, Bai Xifeng activated her earth elemental attribute and punched the stone prison with all her strength. The reinforced walls instantly cracked apart before crumbling into pieces. Water burst outward violently as the prison collapsed, allowing both the torrent and a breathless Bai Xifeng to escape simultaneously.
By the time she landed back on the solid ground, Bai Xifeng was completely soaked from head to toe, with residual electric currents still running wildly across her skin. She immediately activated her lightning elemental attribute, forcefully discharging the remaining electricity from her body into the air. Only after doing that did she finally let out a deep, exhausted breath.
"Xifeng, you are using your elemental attribute." Ji Yuan pointed out calmly.
Bai Xifeng immediately looked away, avoiding Ji Yuan’s piercing gaze. freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Well... I had no other choice." Bai Xifeng responded awkwardly, scratching her cheek.
Ji Yuan remained silent for several long moments, letting the tension hang in the air before finally speaking again. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"That is correct. If you do nothing, you will die instead. Remember that lesson well." Ji Yuan advised calmly.
"I understand." Bai Xifeng replied, nodding obediently like a model student.
"Well, your friends seem rather excited after watching you get beaten up." Ji Yuan commented flatly, gesturing toward the edge of the field.
