Chapter 47 - Upheaval in the Academy X

The matter of Fang Yuan blocking the academy gate and extorting his classmates under the guise of challenging them had attracted attention since the beginning. But mortal guards had no right to punish the students, so they could only go first to the academy elder and repot.

When the academy elder heard the news, he did not immediately command for them to stop it. Instead, he went up the pavilion and observed from afar.

"This child has fighting talent." The longer the academy observed the more interested he became.

"He is a natural battle Gu Master." The academy elder's eyes shined. "Although it's a pity that his talent is only C grade, that's fine too as he has more than fifty percent primeval essence in his aperture he can easily advance to become a Rank two Gu Master. With the help of the clan maybe he can even become a Rank three Gu Master."

A Rank three Gu Master with a natural talent in combat.

A Rank three combat Gu Master…

And an A-grade talent Gu Master who can easily advance to rank four maybe even rank five in the same batch.

Just thinking about this filled the academy elder with joy. The rise of the Gu Yue clan was immenent. And the Bai and Xiong clan would not be able to stop them once these two fully mature.

Thinking about the recent news that they received from the Bai clan, the elders' eyes dimmed a little but once he thought about how their clan managed to produce two geniuses this time he cheered up again.

The more he looked at Fang Yuan who was fighting below the more his eyes shinned. He saw that Fang Yuan was improving as he was fighting.

Naturally, it was as the academy elder saw but it wasn't due to Fang Yuan being born with a talent for fighting. It was because of the five hundred years worth of inherited memories, Brain Gu and Snakelet Gu.

The inherited memories provided him with a variety of moves and techniques. The Brain Gu helped him collect data of his opponents and helped him analyze their next move. Then due to the constant improvement of his body's constitution due to the use of the Snakelet Gu he was more speedy, agile, and powerful in executing his moves, and coupled with the help from the Brain Gu, he was able to better control his body on top of that.

The reason the academy elder was able to see him improve while fighting was naturally due to the use of Brain Gu. As it helped him analyze and minimize his movements during battle.

"A hidden gem."

The academy elder was beyond elated by the time Fang Yuan was finished with his classmates. Even when Fang Yuan trashed Fang Zheng the academy elder didn't mind. According to him, a little bit of rivalry was good. Moreover, Fang Yuan had only extorted a single piece of primeval stone from each student.

Naturally, the academy elder knew the challenge board was a load of bull. He was able to see that Fang Yuan just wanted to extort his classmates and was afraid that if he did so outright he might get into trouble, as such he came up with this challenge thing. A bit clumsy but effective nonetheless, because as he had hoped the one who threw the first fist was the students and initiated the challenge. Fang Yuan had done nothing wrong as he had simply issued a challenge with a suitable reward.

'A gem this kid is a gem.'

None of it mattered to the academy elder, because right now the clan needed such Gu Masters. And Fang Yuan's talent was not that bad it was 59% just a bit more and he would have become a B grade talent.

'I must let the clan leader know about this as soon as possible. I will go and report this to the clan leader today itself.'

"But Sir elder, are we just going to watch this and do nothing about it?"

"This Fang Yuan has too much guts. He dared to extort his classmates at the academy school gate under our eyes. This is acting with utter disregard of the law and discipline! Sir, I say that we must punish him."

"Sir, are you not going to stop this farce? Letting him go on with this nonsense, I'm afraid the consequences wouldn't be too good."

"Do I need you to tell me how to run my Gu Yue clans academy? You better remember these students all bear the surname Gu Yue! They are my Gu Yue clan's clan members, your masters! Even if they are still young, no matter how weak, they are still your masters! A slave dare give preposterous opinions of their masters, caring about the matters of their master?" The elder asked sharply.

"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare!"

The guards were ashen-faced as they kneeled on the ground. The academy elder gave a cold snort and pointed at the chief guard who had just called Fang Yuan good at creating disturbances.

"You are relieved of your position as the chief. After half a month, thee will be re-examination to determine the new chief."

The eyes of the other guards immediately shone, their hearts pumping with enthusiasm.

"The position of chief of the guard! Every month I'll be able to receive half a primeval stone more!"

"To be able to become the chief is to become a man above men. Aside from the masters, I won't have to bow down before anyone."

"If I become the chief, how cool that would be…"

"Alright, what are you all pestling here for? Get downstairs and sweep the field." The elder roared.

By now the battle was already over and Fang Yuan was leaving with six girls following behind him.

'Why is he having those girls follow him? Never mind he can do whatever he wants as long as it doesn't harm the clan in any way.'

The elder was a little bit confused when he saw Fang Yuan order the five conscious girls to follow him while bringing the sixth unconscious girl too. But soon he cast it away, after all, Fang Yuan was a young lad and he was at the age where he would be attracted to the opposite sex. This was a good thing for the Gu Yue clan, while he would prefer for Fang Zheng to do so more, as he had an A grade talent, as such if he got any girl with Gu Yue blood in her pregnant, then it was highly possible that the child born would have at least B-grade talent.

But now after seeing Fang Yuan's talent he would be happy if Fang Yuan got some Gu Yue girl pregnant too, as it was highly possible for his child to be born with the same talent for battle.
