“Impossible,” said the pale-faced girl.
She lost much energy and fell flat on the ground.
The seniors ran to her in fear. They forced some pills into her mouth, and we all waited for thirty minutes before she fully recuperated.
Meanwhile, I'd already dispelled the lethality in her body with just a single thought.
The first thing she said when she regained some vitality was, “How can you poison one with the Innate Poison bloodline?”
The crooked nose senior, Mangtian Ya'er, asked, “What exactly did you feel, Xueyi?”
Xueyi looked at me once more before looking at the senior.
“It almost took my life.”
Everyone was astonished, then they looked at me, once more.
Xueyi continued, “At first, she made me feel that I'd claimed full control over her poison. But who could have thought that I'd lose control of i
As evening descended upon the city, Jessica and I strolled out from the school cafeteria after dinner. We didn't go straight to our dorm room but hopped on Roy to get a bird view of the entire school. It was really fun dashing through the wind in the vast night sky. I stood on Roy's back while Jessica sat dead frightened. I had complete resonance with Roy's mind, so I really couldn't fear of being hurt. Below were myriads of private courtyards and quarters with so many inhabitants residing within. The reason why all of these accommodations were here, was something still unclear to me. As we moved on air, I mediated my spiritual consciousness into my Academy Token to keep an eye on where we were at the moment. “See that skyscraper over there?” I asked, pointing forward. “Uhun?” Jessica replied, raising her head to take in the sight. Her hair fluttered in the wind, carelessly. “That's wher
A neat freak. That was the most significant thing about him. He was a neat freak. Skin smooth to the core. Sharp, ebony pupils in his eyes. Each step he took was well calculated. His broad shoulders carried muscularly looking biceps. He whipped his hands off the dirt he must've acquired from opening the door, with an handkerchief. Immediately, everyone fell into conversations, each curious to know who the cute-looking man was. That's right; he was cute! “Who do you think he is?” I asked Jessica beside me, on a low voice. She bent towards me and whispered, “He could be here to make a few announcement, or he's probably one of the former students.” “Huhn? I thought they were to depart from the wall of the academy at the first crow of dawn...” Before I could even keep speaking, a startling, firm voice jerked me off my words. “Silence, everyone!” Next
Meditation realm? I finally made a breakthrough?! I felt so happy. With the increase in my cultivation, even the feeling of hunger had been completely curbed. Despite not having breakfast due to my waking up late, the hunger that had accompanied me all through class had totally been knocked out. With this, I was confident of staying two days without worrying about any food. Observing myself, I realised that the rich aura was the symbol of the Meditation realm, so I nodded in satisfaction. I was yet to observe the basic changes in my body and meridians, but that could always wait until next time. I immediately reined in my cultivation before Jessica could notice anything. I had to continue living a low profile life or I'd just bring unnecessary problems on myself. “Hey, what's up?” Jessica asked as I met her and we walked outside Class 192. “Nothing serious,” I waved it off. She wasn't quite an
“Remind me not to ever engage with you in a running competition. I'd basically lose my joy for running!” Anthony bent his back while his hands rested on his knees, panting heavily like a dog that was chased by a bus in a highway. “You should feel ashamed of losing to a girl,” I said, tauntingly. “Hey! There's no such thing as ‘a girl’ in the world of cultivators. Weaker vessels only exist with those at lower cultivation levels...” “Which is to say,” I interrupted him, “you're a weaker vessel!” Anthony scrunched his face up as he sat on the floor. “You know what, I won't argue with you till I beat you in rank.” “Haha, not in this world. And you look so cute when you're angry over a loss,” I said casually, laughing my butt out. He raised his cute eyes and looked me in the e
Going over the rules once more, I recited, “Survive for two hours, the good guys are the girls, and the bad guys are the boys. One cannot die in here because it is a virtual world. There, that should do the trick.” Just then I heard a telepathic voice in my head, as a tiny print on my forearm lit up. “The Ethereal Hall is founded by the founders of the Gifted academies. It is a mental folded space, just like your experience in the Ancient Reality continent. It is the best place to lay your martial foundation. This place is fashioned as a replica of the Acorn Forest. Devour this opportunity to the core, Young Mistress.” My eyes lit up in shock. ‘Mystical Beast of Illusions!’ Just hearing its voice was like heaping off a heavy burden from my shoulders. Its timing was just perfect. Just the right time to show up! “Does that mean I get to absorb the mystical beasts around?&r
While I rejoiced over my small gain, I suddenly heard a thump sound before me. “You're back so soon?” I asked, surprise to see the Scorpion Tail Chameleon once more. How many seconds had it been? Three? Five? Ten? Ignoring this, it began telling its find. “There's a girl about your age and height battling with a Scarlet Ape beast with a Meditation realm cultivation. She's wielding a glacial sword and seems very well-versed in the art of swordsmanship. However, she seems to only be in the Transcendent Mortal cultivation realm.” My mouth parted, gawking at the chameleon for a moment. “You're really efficient in what you do!” “Now, the end of your deal.” I smiled and gave it the leftover cupcake without a second hesitation, before diving out of my hiding place. There was nothing for me to be afraid of. I'd taken a step charged with energy, usin
It was as if time had paused in my eyes, as white streak of insight involuntarily flashed through my eyes. Eye of Insight! On my left hand side was a girl hanging mid-air with confidence burning in her eyes as she held on to a frosty sword with vapour ascending from it. Immediately opposite her was the furious Scarlet Ape slowly arcing an arm towards me, out of instincts, with its eyes not leaving — even for a moment — Lingxi's eyes. ‘Woosh!’ ‘Thud — crack!’ ‘Boom!’ Three sounds seemed to have pierced through the heavens. The first was the dash of Lingxi's sword. The second was my fist burning with energy that'd sunk into the flesh of the mighty Scarlet Ape's rib, simultaneously causing the sounds of breaking bones in our ears. And finally, the impact of that punch on the beast. The mountain-shaking boom projected the beast in the air as consciousness immediately slipped off it. It
Back at the Beast Hall's Book Collection Vault in Desolate Grounds city, there was an ancient text that had spoken about the Blazing Overlord Lions. These lions were just like other lions, only that their bloodline were extremely peculiar. Unlike normal lions, the Blazing Overlord Lions had a scorching orange flame as fur. They also had the dragon bloodline mixed with theirs, and as such, if they claimed to be second strongest in the animal kingdom of their cultivation realm, then no animal would dare claim to be first. Most Blazing Overlord Lions have lived for centuries and so their cultivation levels were overwhelming. Although, of recent days, they had slowly grown extinct in the Arerat Planet due to how drastically fast the human cultivators were improving. As a beast tamer, these were basic knowledge one must have. For weaknesses, it is said that they could be overpowered when there's an increase in the yin energy, and due to thi
