43 Alarm

Jing Xiu asked curiously, "Isn't it time for class?"

Zhou Bai sighed, "Ah, it's because you all are too far behind me!"

Jing Xiu: "Huh?"

Zhou Bai explained his reasoning, "The things taught in class are too simple for me, too boring. I even fall asleep. So, going to class is just a waste of time for me. It's better if I study by myself."

Jing Xiu: "Is… is that so?" Jing Xiu looked at Zhou Bai, half believing, "Brother Zhou doesn't go to class because you're too ahead of us?"

Zhou Bai waved his hand, "Let's not talk about it. Don't take it to heart. Compared to a genius like me, it's normal for you all to be left behind. As long as you keep progressing, that's what matters in cultivation."

Jing Xiu doubted Zhou Bai's words a bit, but when she recalled his astonishing performance in exams, she somewhat believed it.

Zhou Bai saw her expression and knew she was half convinced, but that was enough.
