Chapter 18 - Should Have Answered Me
The door slammed shut and Lee Tao stood still in silence. He was confused by the words that Liu Lanfen had said before leaving.
'Xiao Chu, did I hear her wrong or did she really say I'm not worthy to be a senior?' Lee Tao asked her in a mental transmission.
'You aren't acting like an Immortal so it's a given that no one places their trust in you.' Xiao Chu replied honestly, not mincing any part.
Lee Tao nodded his head.
He really doesn't care about being in the limelight. It was just a bunch of mortals praising themselves for their insignificant skills.
Hence, Lee Tao never wanted to be a part of their farce as it was a complete embarrassment for him.
However, he now started to rethink his mindset, given how everyone would only worship those in the limelight.
"Anyway, Lee Tao, I have to speak to you about your attitude in today's lecture." Yu Xiuying finally snapped out of her daze by the words uttered by Liu Lanfen.
'Liu Lanfen rarely talks to someone so why would she comment on Lee Tao.' Yu Xiuying wondered silently as she glanced at Lee Tao.
"What about my attitude today?" Lee Tao raised an eyebrow. He was already being polite by not laughing at her explanation of the cultivation realm.
"You were being unruly and rude." Yu Xiuying scolded as she continued, "You even assaulted a classmate today in front of everyone."
"Correction, he provoked me first and I simply proved a fact to him that he was unworthy." Lee Tao corrected her.
Afterward, he waved his hand and bid farewell to Yu Xiuying.
With a whoosh, Lee Tao vanished from sight, shocking Yu Xiuying and Tang Lingling in his swiftness.
"H-How fast did he go?" Yu Xiyuing muttered as she couldn't even catch a glimpse of Lee Tao when he utilized his movement technique.
Meanwhile, Tang Lingling stood in her place for a few moments. Her thinking remained unknown as she simply bowed slightly toward Yu Xiuying before leaving.
Sometime later, Lee Tao enquired about Yao Meixiang's dorm location.
"Hey, do you know where Yao Meixiang is located?" Lee Tao asked a nearby student.
The student glanced at Lee Tao with a disgusted expression. "You want to stalk Yao Meixiang? Look at yourself first-"
Before the student could speak another word, Lee Tao punched him in the face.
"I asked you a question." Lee Tao scoffed as he glared at the student.
"Now are you going to answer me or you're going to continue wasting my time?" Lee Tao added.
The student was enraged by Lee Tao's audacity to start a fight in the Tianyun Academy.
"You're dead." The student roared as he exuded a fiery aura around his body. His eyes filled with a ferocious gaze as he kicked the ground softly, propelling himself forward to Lee Tao.
"Fiery palm!" The student shouted as he raised his punch.
"Amateur." Lee Tao sneered coldly as he dodged the student punch and grabbed his sleeve.
Afterward, Lee Tao flung him aside as he gave him a low kick. The student groaned in pain and was sent flying.
The commotion of the fight attracted the students' attention as they started looking toward Lee Tao's direction.
Their expressions were filled with disbelief when they realized an Elementary Spirit Realm was beating the crap out of a Profound Spirit Realm.
"Who is he?"
"He can actually beat a person that is one realm higher than him."
"Wait, isn't that student Gao Fei?" One of the students in the crowd suddenly recognized the person being sent flying.
"Gao Fei? How is that possible? You must have recognized the wrong person." One student refuted his claim.
However, his mouth remained open when the student finally stood up after rolling around for a while.
He held a dumbfounded expression when the student was indeed Gao Fei and the fact that he was being beaten by another person with a realm lower than his.
"Unbelievable." Everyone muttered in disbelief as they held a frightened expression at Lee Tao.
"Are we still going to continue?" Lee Tao said as he stretched his back a little bit. It has been a while since he got into a fight and he was going to use Gao Fei as a training puppet.
Gao Fei wiped off some dirt in his mouth. He held a cold gaze at Lee Tao.
"I never expected an Elementary Spirit Realm would have such capability in fighting." Gao Fei then said. His expression soon returned to normal as he became focused and stopped acting irrationally.
"It was a mistake to underestimate your prowess based on your cultivation realm." Gao Fei said as he started increasing his aura.
"Oh, it seems like you managed to control your emotions well." Lee Tao smiled briefly as he praised Gao Fei.
"If you had kept that fiery expression then you wouldn't have been able to have a chance of touching me. Actually- nevermind, you still wouldn't have the chance to do so."
Lee Tao then activated his movement technique as he launched himself toward Gao Fei.
Gao Fei's pupil constricted at Lee Tao's movement.
"Fast." He mumbled as he raised his hands up to try to block Lee Tao's punch.
Lee Tao snickered coldly as he vanished once again, appearing behind Gao Fei.
Lee Tao raised his legs as he kicked in between Gao Fei's legs.
A loud cracking sound echoed and all the men who were watching the fight unconsciously lowered their hands to their crotch as they clamped their legs together.
Although the attack wasn't directed at them, they could feel the pain spiritually.
The female wasn't anything better as they gasped in horror when Gao Fei started screaming in an unimaginable loud voice.
Gao Fei had his hand clutched onto his crotch as he curled himself like a snail. His tears-stricken expression was felt by many as they sympathized with his tragedy.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Gao Fei screamed in tears as his face turned purple. Foam started leaking out of the corner of his mouth as he wanted to faint but couldn't due to the pain.
"That is why you should have just answered my question.." Lee Tao shrugged as he left the scene.
