Chapter 1: Lecture

In a certain academy, there are a certain class that was having a normal lecture session. However, while the teacher, Qin Yi is in the middle of her lecture, there was a young man fast asleep at his desk. Beside him, another young man is spacing out, looking blankly outside the class window.

Qin Yi noticed the young man sleeping during her class, and felt a wave of anger flashes on her face. She stopped her lecture temporarily, and headed in the direction of sleeping beauty.

Qin Yi was seventeen, and an official disciple of the Qingzhou Academy, as well as a lecturer for outer sect disciples. She was blessed with a beautiful face and an alluring body. In the classroom, all eyes followed Qin Yi as she moved.

"This guy again? I can't believe that he fell asleep during Senior Sister Qin's lecture again." It seemed as if the rest of the class had not noticed their sleeping classmate until this moment. Many of them did not know what to say. It was obviously not their first time witnessing this.

"Senior Sister Qin's lecture is very interesting, and easy to understand. Morever, she look so beautiful. I don't know how this guy could have fallen asleep." whispered a fellow classmate.

Among all the lecturers, Qin Yi was without a doubt the most popular. The reason as to why was evident as soon as one laid eyes on her. She was considered a goddess by many. Her lecture were always made to a packed classroom. Falling asleep during her class was seemingly impossible.

Qin Yi's steps were light. She arrived at the young man's side without any sound. Standing in front of the desk as she eyed his face in deep slumber, her beautiful face frosted over.

She was just about to call his name, but saw the apologetic face of the other young man on the side, while looking at her. The young man at the side bowed lightly at her. He then tried to wake his deskmate. However, Qin Yi stopped him, and made a shush hand sign at him.

"Ye Futian." called a soft voice. The voice was not Qin Yi's, however; it had come from behind Ye Futian.

As if he had heard his name being called, Ye Futian's body moved slightly. With his hand holding up his head, he slowly opened his eyes. Through his blurry vision, he was able to make out two round peaks.

"So biuhh!!" Pak!!

The young man beside him slapped Ye Futian's at he back of his head, preventing him from completing his sentence.

"What was that for Ye Huang?" said Ye Futian, glancing at his side with a discontent look on his eyes. That slap made his eyes wide awake.

Ye Huang did not even try to reply to him. He just tried to gesture with his eyes for Ye Futian to look at the person that was standing in front of his desk.

Everyone in the class heard Ye Futian's early word. Looking at the way he looked at Qin Yi's bosom before, they could more or less guess his following sentence.

"Did he want to say 'So big'?"

"I can't believe it! How can he be so openly disrespectful to Senior Sister Qin?"

"This shameless bastard!" Everyone's gaze was fixed on Ye Futian piercing him like sharp swords would, which caused him to shiver involuntary. He could feel that something was wrong. He looked back again to the front, but shifted his gaze upward. His eyes landed on a face as exquisite as jade, but also filled with anger.

"Uh..." Ye Futian was dumbfounded. It was Qin Yi! Had it not been Qingxue who called his name?

Turning around, he saw the glaring eyes of a seemingly innocent 15-year-old girl.

Ye Futian took a glance at the young girl and immediately cursed under his breath. He had been played! No wonder the cup size had been wrong.

He throw a hateful look towards his brother, as if saying why did you not wake me up earlier? Ye Huang avoided his glance and looked outside, trying to act as if he was an unrelated party in this.

'Damn you!' cursed Ye Futian silently.

"Senior Sister Qin, I..." Ye Futian attempted to explain.

"Ye Futian." Qin Yi coldly interrupted him. She asked, " What is the history behind the establishment of Qingzhou Academy?"

It was obvious that Qin Yi wanted to avoid the awkwardness by changing the subject, but Ye Futian could clearly feel her anger radiating towards him. He could even feel the Will of Sword flowing through her body. It was as sharp as a knife, cutting into every inch of his body.

"Three hundred years ago, Donghuang the Great unified the Divine Prefectures of the East. He ordered all the nobles to establish martial arts academies to promote martial arts. Qingzhou Academy was founded under this background," Ye Futian replied. Of course, he was referring to the official historical records. In the unofficial history of his family, there was another name that existed. However, that name was taboo and was not allowed to be mentioned.

"What are the professions of cultivation?" Qin Yi asked again.

"Cultivation can be divided into martial arts and sorcery. There are many professions such as warriors, knights, and swordsmen. There are many professions such as sorcerers, alchemists, and armorers. Sorcerers are also divided into many branches. Of course, there are talented people who cultivate both martial arts and sorcery," Ye Futian replied.

"You seem to have missed out on a profession," Qin Yi stated solemnly.

"Of course I haven't." The young man's face lit up. "The strongest profession in the Divine Prefectures is recognized by the heavens. Mandate Sorcerers are gifted by the heavens. Those with rare talents, such as summoners, animal controllers, and astrologers, are mostly Mandate Sorcerers. Mandate Sorcerers are more talented than others in martial arts or sorcery. Not only that, even the most ordinary Mandate Sorcerers are born to cultivate both martial arts and sorcery." Qin Yi looked at the young man in front of her, impressed. However, she was still angry. She said, "I didn't expect you to know so much about this."

"Well of course." Ye Futian looked at Qin Yi and said seriously, "I am a Mandate Sorcerer."

"Pfft …" Not far away, a young man began choking on his water, and was now coughing up violently. Everyone looked at Ye Futian as if he was an idiot.

How could there be such a shameless person in the world? No wonder he was the legend of Qingzhou Academy. Not only did he flirt with Senior Sister Qin publicly, he even lied about being a Mandate Sorcerer to attract her attention?

However, who was he? He had been cultivating in the academy for three years and had been stuck at the Qi Gathering Plane. His body was weak and obviously he had not even completed the training of his body. How could such a mediocre person call himself a Mandate Sorcerer?

How shameless could he be?

Qin Yi's chest rose and fell again. She looked at Ye Futian angrily. "Since you are a Mandate Sorcerer, your Life Palace naturally has a soul. Let me see your Life Palace's soul."

"My Life Palace is still asleep. I can't summon it. I fell asleep in the lecture hall because of my Life Palace," Ye Futian replied calmly.

"Ye Futian!" Qin Yi suddenly shouted. She stared at the young man in front of her and said, "Three years ago, when you entered the academy at the age of 12, I was still an outer sect disciple. I watched your talent assessment. Your perception of Spiritual Qi was of the highest level, shocking the entire academy. Many teachers paid attention to you. However, in the following three years, you did not improve at all. You stayed at the first Awakening of Qi Gathering Plane, doing nothing all day long. You were lazy and absent-minded in the lecture hall. Have you cultivated or not? Now, you lie about being a Mandate Sorcerer and use this as an excuse to fall asleep in the lecture hall.

"In the past three years, whether it was the Spring Quarter Examinations or the Fall Quarter Examinations, you gave up in all of them, automatically making you last in ranking throughout the whole academy. Ye Futian, do you really not feel ashamed?"

Following Qin Yi's angry roar, the entire classroom fell silent. It was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. Everyone stared at Qin Yi's agitated face. It seemed that this was the first time they had seen Sister Qin like this.

Ye Futian was frozen in shock as well. His dark eyes stared at the delicate face in front of him that was red with anger.

"Three years, huh?" Ye Futian muttered to himself. He did not expect that three years had passed without him noticing. The situation in his Life Palace had not changed at all. He was also surprised that the cold and sexy Senior Sister Qin had been paying attention to him all this time. It had been since he entered the academy and was tested in the entrance talent inspection.

There was dead silence. Qin Yi stared at the young man in front of her. He had a handsome face with clear lines and deep eyes that shone like stars. At the age of 15, other than his skinny body, there was no other fault. In two or three years, he would definitely become a handsome man.

'Was my tone too harsh?' Qin Yi could see the some sadness in Ye Futian's eyes. She could not help but think to herself. Her anger also dissipated a little.

"There is only one month left before the Fall Quarter Examinations. This time, if you still give up or fail, it no one will be able to save you from being expelled. The academy will not allow you to stay. Do you understand?" Qin Yi continued. Everyone in the dormitory was stunned. It seemed that the academy could not stand this guy anymore.

Was he finally going to be kicked out of Qingzhou Academy? If so, it would probably be recorded in the history of Qingzhou Academy. After all, it was very rare to be kicked out of Qingzhou Academy.

"If he leaves, I'll leave." An indifferent voice came from the back of the room. Many looked at the young man sitting in a corner. There was envy, jealousy, admiration, and fear.

"The academy has decided that Yu Sheng does not need to participate in next year's Spring Quarter Examinations. He can choose to cultivate in the academy's Battle Tower with the Knighthood, or the School of Sorcery. Even Ye Huang is catching up to You Sheng, and the academy is willing to give exemption to him from participating in the next year's Spring Quarter Examinations. Their future cannot be tied to you. You will only drag them down," Qin Yi looked at Ye Futian and sighed. Qin Yi looked at Ye Futian and sighed. His and Yu Sheng's fates were going to be completely different.

"Drag them down?" Ye Futian's lips curled into a faint smile. He looked a little cynical.

"Shut up." Yu Sheng, who was sitting in the back, stood up. His eyes shone with a sharp light as he stared at Qin Yi.

"Sit down," Ye Futian said without turning his head. Yu Sheng's gaze froze. He looked at the figure in front of him and then sat down quietly. It was as if Ye Futian's words were absolute orders to him.

"I've decided …" Ye Futian had a frivolous smile on his face. He looked at Qin Yi and said, "I'm officially going to participate in this year's Fall Quarter Examinations."

At the back, Yu Sheng's eyes sparkled.

It had been three years. Was he finally going to get serious?

During his three years at Qingzhou Academy, everyone knew that Yu Sheng was extremely talented. His metal-elemental perception was of the highest level, and he was extremely talented in martial arts. He was able to cultivate both sorcery and martial arts. Even though he was only an outer sect disciple, his plane was higher than many lecturers.

But who could really understood Ye Futian?

"Your body is weak. You're still in the first Awakening of Qi Gathering Plane. Even if you participate in the Fall Quarter Examinations, how can you pass?" Qin Yi looked at Ye Futian and sighed. Even if he worked hard now, it was still too late.

"What if I pass?" Ye Futian seemed to have no self-awareness at all. His tone was full of confidence.

"If you pass, you can do whatever you want in the lecture hall," Qin Yi said.

A strange light flashed in Ye Futian's eyes. Looking at the beautiful figure in front of him and her hot body, he couldn't help but look at something he shouldn't be looking at. He said weakly, "Can I do whatever I want?"

"What does this guy mean …" Many people stared at Ye Futian. Ye Huang facepalmed when he saw his brother like this.

"This shameless bastard, where are his eyes looking?" Many people seemed to have noticed Ye Futian's gaze. They almost go berserk when they see this. How dare he tease Senior Sister Qin?

"He is not my brother." said Ye Huang with a stoic face, trying to distance himself as far as he could.

Qin Yi glared at Ye Futian and said through gritted teeth, "Whatever you want!"
