Ch-18: Technique Hall(2)
While Huang Ling brought out an orb to observe them, Bai Chenyu arrived at the entrance of the technique hall and stiffened when he saw the person in front and let out a weary smile
" Senior Sister Bing Huang, are you also here to pick a technique?" Bai Chenyu asked with a smile to which she looked back at him with a creepy smile that disappeared the moment it arrived
" No" Feng Bing Huang replied
' Then what the hell are you doing here for, are you here to spy on me or something?' Bai Chenyu cursed in his mind
" Then?" Bai Chenyu said with a confused look on his face
"I came to see if you need any help since you're new here. As your Senior, I feel it's my duty to sp... um, help you," Feng Bing Huang said with an innocent smile, making Bai Chenyu roll his eyes and twitch a bit.
"You were gonna say 'spy,' weren't you?" Bai Chenyu thought, sighing as he accepted his fate. He realized there was no escaping this Yandere girl. Little did he know, he'd become an even bigger Yandere in the future.
"So, what can you tell me about this technique hall?" Bai Chenyu asked, even though he was well aware, having entered with her. The moment they stepped in, many eyes turned their way, particularly from males. Some admired Feng Bing Huang, while others who knew her lowered their gaze, fearing a kick that could shatter their manhood, and some of them had already experienced it.
"Wow, she's really pretty," mumbled a new male Outer Court disciple, drooling as he looked at Feng Bing Huang, who was the same age.
"Shh, keep it down. You want your little brother to get in trouble?" warned another disciple, fear in his eyes as he crossed his legs.
"Hmph, what does it matter? She wouldn't dare harm me. I'm the young master of the Fang Family. I always get whatever I want, be it women or treasures," boasted the arrogant boy.
"Just a Fang family member. Do you even know who she is? She's the Princess of this Sky Kingdom and the personal disciple of the Sect Master," another disciple chimed in. The arrogant boy paled and lowered his gaze at the cold look on Feng Bing Huang's face.
"But what about that handsome guy? Who is he?" the jealous boy asked, eyeing Bai Chenyu, who was close to Feng Bing Huang.
"I heard the Sect Master took another disciple, so that must be Senior Bai Chenyu," explained a disciple to his companion.
"Thanks for letting me know. I might have mocked him and offended him. Look, so many new disciples don't know him and are giving him mocking looks," said the disciple, observing the unaware crowd.
Bai Chenyu couldn't help but notice the glances from the crowd, especially from the guys. He had read in novels that it's typical for people to mock and envy someone accompanying a beautiful or important person, and it seemed to be happening to him now. However, he simply shrugged it off. He was aware not everyone recognized him since he became Mo Xiao's disciple a few days ago. Feng Bing Huang was displeased by the crowd's attitude, but she chose to ignore them, seeing that Bai Chenyu wasn't bothered. For him, the opinions of these folks who were giving him jealous looks were simply not worth caring about.
"Brother Chenyu, you might want to skip the techniques on this floor. They're not really worth it considering your talent and potential. Let me give you a quick overview of the floors. The first floor is pretty basic, just filled with Mortal Ranked techniques. It's more suited for Outer Court disciples or those with cultivation up to the Mortal Ascension Realm. We're at the same cultivation level as them, but our Heavenly Qi puts us in a different league," Feng Bing Huang explained as she guided Bai Chenyu towards the stairs to the next floor.
Upon arrival, they noticed several disciples attempting to climb the stairs, but their efforts were in vain. They couldn't break through the invisible pressure bearing down on them. Some were groaning in pain, lying on the ground. Most likely, they were new Outer Court disciples who had been a bit too arrogant and were now being mocked by their seniors. An Elder looked at them with a sigh.
The Elder in charge of this floor and the disciples shifted their focus to Bai Chenyu and Feng Bing Huang as they approached. While many didn't recognize Bai Chenyu, some did identify Feng Bing Huang.
"Junior Brother Chenyu, on the second floor, there are Earth Rank techniques, and most of the disciples there are Inner Court disciples with cultivation above the Mortal Ascension Realm," Feng Bing Huang whispered. Bai Chenyu nodded, already familiar with this information from reading the novel.
"Look, more disciples trying to climb the stairs," sneered one of the disciples.
"Tsk, they really don't know what's good for them," another disciple said, clicking his tongue.
"Haha, why bother with them? They'll just fail, and it'll be free entertainment for us," chuckled another.
"Hmm, isn't that Disciple Feng? What is she doing here?" asked a disciple.
"Maybe she came to pick a technique, but didn't she already choose one last time?" inquired another disciple.
"Sigh, I'm envious. This is the perk of being Epka Master's disciple, not to mention the personal disciple of the Sect Master," said another disciple, a hint of envy on her face.
"But who's that boy with Disciple Feng? I don't recognize him," frowned another disciple.
Bai Chenyu furrowed his brow as he felt immense pressure bearing down on him when he reached the stairs to the next floor. Like Feng Bing Huang, he shielded his body with Heavenly Qi, and the pressure immediately vanished. Casually, he ascended the stairs with Feng Bing Huang closely following, leaving the disciples who had been mocking them dumbfounded.
"Damn, who are they? How did they climb the stairs so easily?" asked a newly promoted Outer Court disciple.
"Now I recognize him. He's Bai Chenyi, another disciple of the Sect Master. I saw him with the Sect Master a few days ago," informed another disciple.
"Seriously, why didn't you tell me before?" complained another disciple.
"Damn, I mocked him. Will he hold a grudge towards me?" asked a disciple, panic evident on his face.
