Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 80: Enemies Always Meet
"Seventh Brother, you look restless. Did you forget something?"
Xuan Yin immediately came to a realization hearing the question from Xuan Wu. "No. I didn't forget anything. I'm fine."
Xuan Wu only the mangosteen heard this dubious answer. He looked back to the front then looked for another topic to talk about.
"I heard the news of a new disciple who was able to reach the fifth floor of the dragon stage in his first attempt. Isn't he great?"
Xuan Yin's forehead shriveled. He didn't know there was news like this. The freshman arrived at the fifth floor in the first experiment? Even he was only up to the fourth stage. Is this year's new disciple really a genius?
Still struggling in thought, his eyes that were looking towards the crowd of disciples suddenly caught one very familiar face.
Xuan Yin directly pulled her face forward then rubbed her eyes violently.
"The man ... Why am I thinking about it lately. Even now hallucinating seeing his face." Xuan Yin shook his head faintly. It all started when I heard my mother say a name similar to her. Every day, every night is always reflected in his figure. This is really unsettling!
"Seventh Brother, after this we will go straight to the teacher's place. What about you are you going straight to the academy's head?"
Xuan Yin remained silent. Silence took a deep breath then turned her attention to Xuan Si, her fourth brother. "I think I should go to the teacher's place."
...
On the other side.
"Zhang Yu, did you see him? The Seventh Prince seemed to be looking towards me." Wu Zetian patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder and smiled proudly.
"Earlier one day when the Seventh Prince came to Heishan City, he stopped by the Wu family. For sure he knows me as the Young Master of the Wu Family," he explained confidently.
Zhang Yu only shook his head.
"The disciples began to disperse. I have to go now."
"Where are you going?" asked Wu Zetian quickly.
Zhang Yu did not answer. In a few breaths, his back was already invisible within sight.
Wu Zetian snorted in annoyance. "Excession! Just tell me you're jealous because the Seventh Prince knows me."
...
Zhang Yu headed towards the master's residence like his original goal. While holding a pair of necklaces in his left hand and a piece of paper in his right hand he moved swiftly across the borders of the inner and outer court.
However, on the way he passed Wen Bailou. The burly man was together with two friends who were both wearing inner disciple robes.
"Stop! What are you doing here?!" Wen Bailou spread his hands blocking Zhang Yu's path.
The two friends beside him were astonished to see Wen Bailou's attitude. "Wen Bailou, do you know him?"
"He's Zhang Yu, the disciple I told you about."
Knowing the name of this disciple was Zhang Yu, Wen Bailou's two friends seemed to be frowning while looking deeply.
"It turns out that he's an arrogant new student and doesn't look at his seniors." One friend sneered loudly. Another friend walked around Zhang Yu with a scornful look.
"What because you've made it to the fifth stage makes you so haughty? We even got to it first."
Zhang Yu rolled his eyes lazily. "Have you finished talking? If I'm going to leave now."
Wen Bailou and his two friends were stunned by Zhang Yu's sentence. Their faces turned red and in an instant became dark.
"It turns out you don't really appreciate seniors."
"I appreciate people who are worth respecting. People like you don't deserve it at all!" reply Zhang Yu.
Before the atmosphere became even hotter, Elder Xin Fei came over to those who were again in a row.
"What's this a lot?"
Wen Bailou and his two friends looked at each other. In their hearts they denounced this inopportune time. He hadn't done anything to Zhang Yu yet, but Elder Xin Fei had come over uninvited.
They were silent for a long time. Then Wen Bailou had one idea to corner Zhang Yu.
"Chairman Xin Fei, this new disciple entered the inner region without permission. Shouldn't he get punished?"
Elder Xin Fei had originally not paid much attention to Zhang Yu. Only after hearing Wen Bailou's words did he gradually turn his face to the side seeing more clearly.
As was worried. This new disciple turned out to be Zhang Yu, the new disciple who was also the head disciple of the academy.
"Chairman Xin Fei, he should be punished for entering the inner court without permission," Wen Bailou said again.
No one realized Elder Xin Fei's facial features were so bad.
Punishing the academy's head disciple? Does he have this kind of right?
After a few breaths of silence, Elder Xin Fei waved his hand indifferently.
"Three of you go back. It's just a misunderstanding. I asked Zhang Yu to come here. So he didn't come without permission."
Wen Bailou and his two friends couldn't believe hearing Elder Xin Fei's statement.
Is it really like that?
But despite the doubt they also did not dare to question Elder Xin Fei's sentence.
"Since Elder Xin Fei brought him here then we no longer have any complaints. Excuse us!"
Elder Xin Fei nodded his head faintly, then turned to Zhang Yu.
"Before thank you for the help of Elder Xin Fei!"
"That's not a big deal. After all you came to the academy head's place right? Now nothing stands in your way. You can go there," replied Elder Xin Fei.
Since the matter had ended Zhang Yu immediately went towards the master's residence. Neither Zhang Yu nor Elder Xin Fei realized that Wen Bailou and his two friends had not really left from there.
Seeing Zhang Yu and Elder Xin Fei go in different directions, they immediately realized this awkwardness.
"I told you something was wrong. Elder Xin Fei was just looking for an excuse to stand up for the new disciple," said Wen Bailou's friend who was in a hunch.
"That's right. But what kind of identity made Elder Xin Fei so defensive of him?" muttered another friend.
Wen Bailou was lazy to think about this. All he had in his head was the desire to teach Zhang Yu a lesson.
The new disciple not only challenged him, but also grabbed Meng Yue's attention. He would not be satisfied before seeing her miserable. Or at least battered with his hands.
"Senior Wen, do you want to find an opportunity to teach that new student a lesson?"
Wen Bailou's forehead shriveled at the sound from behind. Seeing who the owner of this voice was an outer disciple, he immediately definitely pursed his lips.
"You who?"
There are so many outside students. It was impossible to remember all names for sure unless the person really stood out. But this disciple in front of him was clearly not that prominent and it seemed like this was his first time meeting him.
Jiang Fu smiled bitterly at this question. But he didn't want to be so concerned about it.
"Senior Wen, my name is Jiang Fu. I've been your admirer for a long time. You're not only strong, but talented ...."
Sweet words launched so easily, making Wen Bailou's head grow bigger.
The burly man cleared his throat several times while waving his hand. "Enough enough! You don't have to say it so clearly even though the truth is like that."
Ahem...
"You said you had a way to teach Zhang Yu a lesson. Tell me quickly," he asked.
Jiang Fu smiled as his plan went smoothly. "Senior Wen, won't there soon be a ritual of entering the Zhen Yang Realm? It was the perfect opportunity to avenge you on Zhang Yu."
"Nature Zhen Yang?" The two friends of Wen Bailou opened their eyes wide in surprise.
"Wen Bailou, what he said was true as well. We can do anything while at Zhen Yang Realm without worrying about the academy's laws."
Wen Bailou pensively for a few seconds. "What if he doesn't come?"
"Senior Wen take it easy. I'm pretty sure. A person like Zhang Yu couldn't possibly miss this opportunity as long as he knew the information."
Wen Bailou hesitated, but these words made perfect sense. So he started to pull the corners of his lips. "I'll do it! I'll wait until the time comes!"
