Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Kyoto Also Has a Future Great Emperor? And There Are Two?
The female teacher’s tone wasn’t exactly harsh, but the dissatisfaction and questioning were quite obvious.
In her view, wasn’t everyone who got into Jing University a child of heaven?
But the more of a genius one was, the more they should understand humility and decorum!
’To be this late even for registration… she’s clearly relying on her talent and is far too arrogant.’
“Something came up.”
Gu Yuexi replied nonchalantly, not bothering to explain further.
Qi Chongshan had indeed communicated with the school on her behalf, but clearly, that kind of information would only be passed to the academy’s upper management, not to every single administrative teacher.
Hearing this bland explanation, the female teacher’s dissatisfaction grew even stronger.
’See? Just as I thought, that’s her attitude.’
’She thinks she’s a genius, that she’s so special? Who here at Jing University isn’t a genius? You don’t get to be a maverick here.’
However, she didn’t say anything more, just stamped the documents in a business-like manner.
After finally completing all the procedures, Gu Yuexi took her student ID and dorm key, said a word of thanks, and turned to leave.
Her crisp and efficient—or rather, aloof—attitude made the few teachers in the admissions office shake their heads.
She hadn’t gone far before she heard the hushed discussion of several staff members behind her.
“See that? That attitude. It’s like we at Jing University begged her to come.”
A young teaching assistant curled his lip.
“She’s a genius, so it’s normal for her to have a bit of a temper. But here at our Jing University, if you’re a dragon, you coil; if you’re a tiger, you crouch!”
The middle-aged female teacher adjusted her glasses, her tone tinged with a hint of mockery.
“Exactly. These kids get spoiled by their high schools and think it’s the same here at Jing University. We’ve seen plenty of them. It’s fine. After a couple of weeks, once she meets a genius even more outstanding than her, she’ll learn her place.”
“True that. No matter how much of a genius she is, can she be more of a genius than the two Future Great Emperors who are currently the talk of our Kyoto?”
’Future Great Emperor?’
Hearing this title, Gu Yuexi, who was about to leave, paused almost imperceptibly.
A faint, barely-there smile touched the corners of her lips.
In her previous life, she had reached the Emperor Realm and looked down upon the world. Until her death by heavenly tribulation, she had never heard of any newly ascended Emperor Level experts in Kyoto, let alone two.
’Future Great Emperor? Heh, how audacious.’
She paid them no more mind and left directly.
’Hey! Don’t go!’
Chu Sheng still wanted to hear what this “Future Great Emperor” business was all about.
His curiosity piqued, he had a thought, and a “Reconnaissance Louse” quietly hopped off Gu Yuexi’s head.
…
Through the eavesdropping of the Reconnaissance Louse, Chu Sheng quickly figured out the whole story.
It turned out that in the month or two while he and Gu Yuexi were causing a stir on Hong Kong Island, two peerless, top-notch prodigies had appeared out of nowhere in the Great Xia Capital City.
Supposedly, these two prodigies had each cleared an extremely difficult, ultimate Secret Realm—the kind that legend says only Emperor Realm experts could pass in their youth!
Thus, the two of them were hailed as beings destined to enter the Emperor Realm in the future, collectively known as the “Future Twin Emperors.”
One of them was the Future Empress from S-Class of Jing University’s Martial Arts Academy, named Su Yingxue.
The other was a future Emperor-Level Beast Tamer from the neighboring Huaqing University’s Beast Taming Academy, named Qin Haoran. It was said that he had a Dragon Contracted Beast with an Emperor-level Bloodline!
Hearing this, Chu Sheng almost burst out laughing.
’Well, I’ll be damned!’
’One “Future Empress,” a direct clash with Gu Yuexi’s title.’
’One “Emperor-Level Beast Tamer,” a professional rival to Gu Yuexi.’
’This is getting interesting!’
Chu Sheng instantly understood.
’No wonder the news from Hong Kong Island didn’t make a splash on the Continent. It turns out they already have two “local” top-notch prodigies here!’
’The people of the Capital City would naturally pay more attention to the tangible “Future Twin Emperors” right beside them and wouldn’t be as interested in some “Future Empress” from faraway Hong Kong Island.’
’Even if someone heard about Gu Yuexi clearing the Star Sea Glazed Tower, they probably dismissed it, or even thought the people on Hong Kong Island were just bragging.’
’After all, the legend of the Star Sea Glazed Tower wasn’t well-known or credible on the Continent, so how could it compare to the fame of the Secret Realms cleared by these two from the Capital City?’
’Besides, Gu Yuexi had been using a fake name and a disguised identity during her early days on Hong Kong Island.’
’So naturally, almost no one knew the name Gu Yuexi.’
After figuring out the situation, Chu Sheng chuckled mischievously and buzzed the gist of the news to Gu Yuexi.
“BUZZ BUZZ. (Interesting. Looks like life at Jing University won’t be too boring.)”
Gu Yuexi smiled faintly, still unfazed by it all.
Just like with Hong Kong Island,
she had a purpose for coming to Kyoto as well.
It was never for fame, nor did she expect the Martial Dao teachers here to be able to teach her anything.
’A joke. She was a grand Empress of her generation. In terms of Cultivation experience and insight, you couldn’t find more than a handful of people on the entire Blue Star who could compare to her. Who was qualified to teach her?’
Her purpose for coming here was similar to why she went to Hong Kong University—for a few specific things.
And the most important of them was a… Demigod-level Secret Realm located here in Kyoto!
…
The living conditions at Jing University were quite good, especially for top students like those in S-Class, who received preferential treatment in a dedicated honors dormitory area.
Gu Yuexi’s dorm was a private single suite, fully equipped with a bedroom, a study, and a Cultivation Chamber. The Spiritual Qi concentration was also far higher than in the regular dorm areas.
Chu Sheng followed Gu Yuexi to the women’s section of the honors dorm, feeling incredibly refreshed as he smelled the various faint, sweet fragrances wafting through the air along the way.
’Hehe, a girls’ dorm is great, I love it. I’ve got a new source for Mental Power.’
Chu Sheng was, of course, very familiar with girls’ dorms.
Back at Hong Kong University, he would sneak into the girls’ dorms almost every night.
And now, he had moved right in with Gu Yuexi!
’That said, since Jing University is one of the two top universities in Great Xia, the quality of Mental Power in the girls’ dorms here should be higher than at Hong Kong Island University, right?’
’But maybe not.’
’After all, Hong Kong Island specializes in cultivating Mental Power, and only Mental Power.’
’Oh well, no point in guessing. I’ll just go try it out tonight and see.’
That very night!
Once Gu Yuexi entered the Cultivation Chamber to begin her meditation, Chu Sheng couldn’t hold back any longer and stealthily slipped out of the dorm.
In his Primitive Form, he looked just like an ordinary White-striped Aedes Mosquito, with no aura fluctuations whatsoever.
’Still, I have to be careful. After all, everyone hates ordinary mosquitoes, too.’
Chu Sheng didn’t rush into a room. Instead, he flitted between each dorm, using his Perception to gauge the strength of the Mental Power inside.
Since this was the honors dorm area, housing S-Class students from various academies, not everyone specialized in Mental Power.
After making a round, Chu Sheng finally sensed strong waves of fluctuation coming from one of the dorms.
’You’re the one!’
Chu Sheng flew straight in, slipping stealthily through the crack under the door.
Since it was a small suite, he didn’t see anyone at first. The Mental Power fluctuations were coming from the Cultivation Chamber.
Chu Sheng wasn’t in a hurry. He’d have to wait for the person to fall asleep anyway, so he started wandering around the bedroom.
’Huh, a student ID.’
’Let’s see who Lord Mosquito’s first lucky lady to be “graced” by my presence at Jing University is!’
—Su… Ying… Xue?
