103 The Bully

The meditation class was taking place in Autumn Frost Court.

Chu Liuyue followed Si Ting and soon arrived at the class.

When they stood outside the door, Si Ting whispered, “Meditation classes are usually a way for us to cultivate our control over the Heaven and Earth Force.”

Chu Liuyue nodded. A Xuan Master’s cultivation was nothing more than these few aspects.

The front door automatically opened as soon as they arrived at the doorway.

A rich voice, belonging to a middle-aged man, called out, “Come in.”

Chu Liuyue entered after Si Ting.

Ten stone platforms had been placed in the room, and a student occupied each of the tables.

A chessboard was placed on each table in front of them.

Almost all the students were staring intently at their own board, thinking hard. Even when they heard the two of them enter, they merely glanced up quickly and directed their attention back to deciphering the Xuan formation on the board.

At the front, two empty stone platforms were in the middle. One obviously belonged to Si Ting, whereas the other was hers.

As she got closer, she saw a distinct character ‘two’ engraved on the stone platform. She glanced at Si Ting’s platform beside hers. It had the character ‘one.’

It seemed that this seating arrangement was based on their mid-term assessment results.

The moment Chu Liuyue stepped onto her platform, a chessboard suddenly appeared on the empty tabletop! The chessboard displayed a Xuan formation!

“Today’s lesson is simple. You will pass as long as you can find these two Xuan formations’ formation eyes.” Dongfang Qing looked at Chu Liuyue with hidden expectations. “The top three students who take the least time will be rewarded separately.”

He wasn’t there during the mid-term assessment, so he wasn’t sure what happened or how Chu Liuyue had come in second place for the Xuan Master assessment. Elder Sun and the others had hyped it up so much, even saying that Chu Liuyue’s talent was not the slightest bit inferior to that of Si Ting.

The girl had pretty features. As she stared at Chu Liuyue with her almond-shaped eyes, she didn’t bother to conceal her arrogance and hostility towards the latter.

Hostility? A frown appeared on Chu Liuyue’s forehead. I don’t even know the girl. What have I done to deserve this attitude?

Si Yang—who was sitting behind Chu Liuyue—impatiently retorted, “Gu Mingzhu, why are you so nosy? It’s normal for Liuyue to challenge my brother. After all, she’s the second best! This is no place for a third runner-up like you.”

Chu Liuyue suddenly knew who this girl was upon hearing her name.

Second Gu Missy, Gu Mingzhu. Since she was the eldest son’s daughter and a Xuan Master in training, Second Gu Missy was widely adored within the Gu family.

Gu Mingzhu’s expression became more hostile after she was chided by Si Yang. “I merely asked a question. Why are you coming to her defense?”

Si Yang snorted. “You know exactly what you were thinking! If you want to challenge my brother, wait till you get second!”

Gu Mingzhu was so angry that she turned white. Finally, she replied through gritted teeth. “How capable can she be? She came in second without a solid foundation or training. Who knows how she got second.”
