Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 886: Chapter 886 Fengming Piaoxue

”Enough, teacher, give him a chance. If he is willing to join Phoenix God College, let us pretend today’s incident never happened. After all, a youth with such qualifications is indeed very rare.”

The speaker was a woman.

A woman older than Fengming Yu and about the same age as Yan Ran.

Her voice was soft and calm, devoid of any emotion, yet it carried an undeniable air.

Her face was veiled, and her features were indistinct, but her eyes were captivating and possessed an ethereal charm.

Her figure was also the envy of many women.

She was Fengming Piaoxue.

A mystifying woman.

Though she belonged to the Ice Phoenix Clan, she seldom made public appearances.

Yet, within the Ice Phoenix Clan, she held significant influence.

Her unexpected appearance and plea for Ling Xiao genuinely astonished numerous people, leading them to question Ling Xiao’s identity.

If Ling Xiao were merely known as the Chosen Son of Heaven from the Heavenly Dragon Continent, it was unlikely that Fengming Piaoxue would have intervened.

The teacher might disregard Yan Ran, but upon seeing Fengming Piaoxue, he dared not act so rashly.

”Since Miss Piaoxue has spoken, I naturally have no objections. Boy, what about you? What do you wish?”

The tone of the Phoenix God College teacher reminded Ling Xiao of the time he was a beggar, when wealthy young masters would toss him their leftover food as if calling a dog.

Back then, he had no choice, for as a beggar, the alternative to subsisting on such handouts was death.

He had no right to choose.

Now, he had the right to make his own choices.

He had taken up martial arts because he did not want to return to that beggar’s life.

He was utterly disdainful of this man’s patronizing tone.

Others might regard Fengming Piaoxue as an unquestionable authority, but Ling Xiao did not even know this person.

Nor did he plan to join Phoenix God College.

”I’m sorry, but I have absolutely no interest in joining Phoenix God College!”

His voice was neither servile nor overbearing.

The world was vast, and there would always be a place for Ling Xiao. Even if the entire Divine Phoenix Continent could not accommodate him, he could journey to the next destination.

It was no big deal.

”What!”

The teacher from Phoenix God College, upon hearing this, frowned instantly and a chilling aura surged towards Ling Xiao: ”A fool who refuses a toast only to drink a forfeit. I am giving you an opportunity to join Phoenix God College without needing to sign a servitude contract and you still refuse?

Do you wish to die?”

”Teacher, why be angry? Everything depends on freedom, after all. Let me talk to him!”

Fengming Piaoxue’s immaculate figure moved gracefully towards Ling Xiao, every step she took capturing countless gazes.

”Ling Xiao, you must have heard of the prestige of Phoenix God College. If you truly wish to become powerful, choosing to join us is definitely the right decision! Also, understand that I am not begging you to join; I simply do not wish to see such talent as yours go to waste, so I am offering you this opportunity. Do not miss it!”

”No need!”

Had it only been the former part of her speech, Ling Xiao might have actually been tempted; after all, one can’t see the forest for the trees and his view might not encapsulate all that Phoenix God College embodies. If someone truly and sincerely invited him to join, he would naturally not refuse.

But the latter half of her speech was rather unsettling.

That arrogance soaring above all truly resembled that of Ji Mingkong in the past.

Ling Xiao had risen from the lower ranks, so he greatly despised such condescending tones and behavior.

He had once been a beggar, and what he loathed most was being treated like one by others’ charity.

Otherwise, what was the point of his arduous cultivation over the past year?

A murderous intent surfaced on the teacher’s face, thinking to himself that this youngster really didn’t know what was good for him, but it was just as well; having offended Miss Piaoxue, he could kill the boy without any reservations.

”You dare to refuse my kindness?”

Fengming Piaoxue seemed somewhat surprised; there weren’t many in this world who dared to refuse her kindness.

”Miss, your kindness is too high for me to reach, so may I leave now?”

The more he spoke with this woman, the more Ling Xiao grew disgusted; all he wanted now was to leave this dreadful place.

Everyone here seemed to place themselves on a pedestal, looking down on others through their nostrils—a truly uncomfortable feeling.

”Brother Ling, listen to my advice; Miss Piaoxue doesn’t like to help people, she only helps those she considers worthy!”

Another person came out from the college, surprisingly Bai Qianjiao.

Walking alongside her was Hong Li.

How little time had passed, yet both of their cultivation levels had increased incredibly fast.

”Sister, why bother persuading him? You know how stubborn this person is,” Hong Li complained from the side.

”Nevertheless, I don’t want to see a rare talent like Brother Ling fall,” Bai Qianjiao sighed.

”Don’t worry, he won’t fall!”

Suddenly, a voice sounded from afar, and then a figure broke through the sky.

With white hair and a youthful face, he was probably what they meant by that description.

The newcomer looked extremely young, but his hair was completely white.

Dressed in white, he was genteel and elegant, almost having an air of otherworldliness.

”Hey, isn’t that the Vice President of Qingxu College?”

”Yes, that’s him; what’s going on? Ling Xiao is just a human, why would he make a move?”

”I don’t know either, I’m totally confused!”

Not just the spectators were confused; even Ling Xiao himself was puzzled.

After all, he was merely a martial artist seeking enlightenment on the Divine Phoenix Continent and had no prior relations with it.

Although he had shown some potential,

it shouldn’t be enough to make the Vice President of Qingxu College intervene on his behalf.

Upon seeing him, Fengming Piaoxue and the Phoenix God College teacher had to bow in greeting.

Though this person was the Vice President of Qingxu College and not of Phoenix God College, his mighty strength and esteemed position were indomitable by them.

”Gentlemen, although Ling Xiao has injured a disciple from the Phoenix God College, there was a reason behind it, and delving into it would benefit no one,” spoke the Vice President upon landing. He first nodded and smiled at Ling Xiao as a greeting, and then said to those of Phoenix God College, ”How about this? We from Qingxu College will handle Leng Chan’s cultivation recovery. As for Fengming Bo, our college is willing to offer a set of rare Yu Pin Martial Arts as compensation. What do you think?”

This approach actually gave a lot of face to Phoenix God College. After all, if this matter escalated to the Emperor, reasoning dictated that Phoenix God College would ultimately be on the losing side.

They would not only get no compensation but also might suffer substantial losses.

Hearing this, the Phoenix God College teacher became nervous; as the matter proceeded to this level, it was beyond his ability to resolve.
