Chapter 1845: Teacher? (Please Subscribe)_1
Long Yuxue frowned, "Jiang Wuyue, I've already said I have nothing to do with you, don't arbitrarily link me with yourself."
She had no feelings for Jiang Wuyue; it was only because her good friend was his sister that she had not outright rejected him!
Yet his repeated harassment of the new recruits had stirred a degree of disgust in her heart!
These words made Jiang Wuyue anxious, he explained, "Yuxue, you must not be deceived by his appearance. What's the use of having just a handsome face if you can't protect the woman you love!"
After speaking, he turned his fierce gaze back to Xu Sheng, barking coldly, "New recruit, if you have the guts, don't hide behind a woman. Face me in a fair contest. If I lose, I will acknowledge your eligibility to be with Yuxue, but if you lose, you are not allowed to go near Yuxue again!"
In his words, there was full confidence in his own strength!
After all, in his eyes, not all new recruits were freaks like Tang Wulin and Gu Yue whom he encountered yesterday!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiyue immediately covered her forehead and thought to herself, "It's over… my dear brother, you've completely ruined any chance of being with Yuxue!"
Yuxue, she especially loathes such matters of taking feelings as a wager!
As expected, Long Yuxue's face had already turned gloomy at this moment…
Xu Sheng spoke indifferently, "If I'm not mistaken, the Ferocious God Legion doesn't allow dueling, right?"
He had no interest in Long Yuxue or Jiang Qiyue and did not want to interfere with others' feelings!
Seeing Xu Sheng continue to refuse, Jiang Wuyue became even more convinced that the former had no real substance and had only joined the Ferocious God Legion through backdoor means!
Relentlessly, he said, "This is not a duel, but a spar. If you are a man, fight me fair and square!"
The surrounding officers all looked at Xu Sheng with pity, whispering, "This new recruit looks like he's in for a bad time! Jiang Wuyue's strength has at least reached above that of a Soul Sage, he's not someone ordinary people can compare with!"
"Right, especially in terms of combat skills, he's far beyond an average Soul Master!"
"This is a person whom the General personally invited to join the Ferocious God Legion, he shouldn't lose too badly, right?"
"Jiang Wuyue is really ruthless, issuing a challenge in front of everyone. If the new recruit doesn't accept, he'll be labeled a coward, and if he loses, he will have to stay away from Long Yuxue!"
"I actually support this new recruit, love should not be something to wager. Who you like should be your own freedom!"
Coldness flickered in Xu Sheng's dark eyes, "Fine… I accept your challenge!"
Jiang Wuyue flexed his fists, "Then without delay, let's have it right here…"
Before he could finish, a voice filled with surprise called out…
"Teacher Xu! What are you doing here?"
The speakers were none other than Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, who had come to enjoy the spectacle, only to discover that the new recruit being troubled was actually Xu Sheng!
They couldn't help but call out in greeting...
This brief sentence stunned the surrounding officers...
"Did I hear it wrong just now, did this new recruit just call the new recruit 'Teacher'?"
"Make yourself clear, what are you mumbling over there?"
"Impossible right, this new recruit called Xu Sheng looks to be only in his twenties, not much different from Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, how could he be their teacher?"
"No… I couldn't have heard wrongly, just now Tang Wulin and Gu Yue indeed referred to this new recruit as 'Teacher'!"
"This is getting interesting, the new recruit turns out to be a teacher from some academy, hehe…"
Curious, Jiang Qiyue looked towards Long Yuxue, "Yuxue, what's going on here?"
Long Yuxue shook her head, "I don't know either, but judging by Tang Wulin and Gu Yue's demonstration of Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and Purple Demon Eyes, they must be from the Tang Sect!"
"But the Tang Sect doesn't seem to have a tradition of calling someone 'Teacher'! They must still be students from some academy!"
It wouldn't be far-fetched for Xu Sheng, with his Titled Douluo level strength, to take up the role of a teacher!
Jiang Wuyue's eyebrows shot up as he asked Tang Wulin, "Kid, did you just say, he is your teacher!"
Tang Wulin nodded calmly and confidently, "Yes, sir!"
How dare Jiang Wuyue provoke Teacher Xu; he's probably going to die a miserable death!
Considering he treated me to a meal yesterday, I suppose I can reluctantly help him out!
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Jiang Wuyue seemed to weigh his words, "Since that's the case, let's call off this sparring match, but you're not allowed near Yuxue anymore. Otherwise, nobody can help you!"
He may be brusque, but he's definitely not foolish!
If he could teach such an abnormal disciple, the teacher's strength probably isn't weak either!
If I lost to him, I wouldn't be able to show my face in the entire Ferocious God Legion!
And just like that, the matter came to a conclusion…
...
Following beside Xu Sheng, Tang Wulin asked eagerly, "Teacher Xu, shouldn't you be at the academy? Why did you also come to the Ferocious God Legion?"
Xu Sheng's lips curved up slightly, "Naturally, I came to see how you're all doing. What, you're not happy to see me?"
Tang Wulin hurriedly replied, "Of course, I'm delighted, it's just that I feel sorry for troubling you, Teacher Xu!"
It was entirely possible to check up on them using a communicator for remote contact. There was no need to go to such lengths to visit!
Clearly, they held a certain place in Teacher Xu's heart!
His heart instantly filled with emotion…
Gu Yue, on the other hand, with her beautiful eyes fixed, pressed on, "Teacher Xu, those officers earlier said you were a new recruit. Could it be you were personally invited by a general..."
Xu Sheng nodded without changing his expression, "Mhm, that's me! They just didn't know that I'm an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion!"
Tang Wulin seemed to realize something as his eyes shifted, "Heh heh, Teacher Xu, how did you do on your assessment? Gu Yue and I both received the military rank of second lieutenant out of turn!"
He finished speaking and pointed to the badge on his chest!
If they had been promoted to second lieutenant out of turn, what about Teacher Xu, a Hyper Douluo, or even an Ultimate Douluo?
Xu Sheng replied offhandedly, "Me? I should be a Lieutenant Colonel, I think!"
He didn't care much for military ranks.
And he hadn't come just for Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, but to observe this mountain range since it seemed to be hiding something unknown!
Upon hearing this, both Tang Wulin and Gu Yue inhaled sharply...
Lieutenant Colonel!
Did that not mean that Teacher Xu had become Long Yuxue's superior in an instant!
Without hesitation, they gave a big thumbs up, praising, "You're really something, Teacher Xu, to jump ranks like that!"
That meant Gu Yue and I now had a backer in the Ferocious God Legion!
Gu Yue, who had already figured out that Xu Sheng had other business to attend to here, remained silent…
