"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the main door of the Headmaster's Office of the outer court suddenly opened, and a handsome and extraordinary young man slowly walked in from outside. This young man had an elegant gait and proper manners. It was hard to imagine that he was the one who had violently opened the door.
This handsome young man was none other than Xiao Bieli.
"Old ghost Hu, why are you looking for me?”Xiao Bieli went straight to the point the moment he entered.
The door was suddenly opened by someone. Hu Gan, who was reviewing documents, could not help but frown slightly. When he heard the somewhat annoying voice, his brows immediately relaxed. In the Jia Nan Academy's Outer Academy, other than Xiao Bieli this fellow, there was really no one who dared to be so rude in front of him.
Immediately, Hu Gan said helplessly,"You brat, it's always like this. Can you let people worry a little? If the door is damaged, you will have to pay for it. At that time, your salary will be deducted. Do you believe it?"”
"Don't, don't!" When it came to salary deductions, Xiao Bieli repeatedly waved his hands in compromise. "I'll just be more careful next time.”
Hu Gan smiled slightly. His expression was a little proud. This was because Xiao Bieli did not seem to be afraid of anything. However, when it came to deducting his salary, he immediately gave in. It was precisely because he had grasped this weakness that Hu Gan used this as a threat every time that it was extremely effective.
Pausing for a moment, Hu Gan said," The main reason I've called you over this time around is for that matter. First Elder Su Qian said that the bet can be nullified, but as an exchange, you must go to the Inner Academy to teach. Moreover, he will specially open a Sword Dao class for you.”
"Old Ghost Su's wishful thinking is really brilliant.”Xiao Bieli said with a trace of disdain," However, he is destined to be disappointed this time. The reason why I dared to return to Jia Nan Academy so brazenly, what does this represent? It means that I've already won the bet.”
"What?!" Hu Gan immediately widened his old eyes when he heard this. His face was filled with disbelief. Subsequently, he released the aura unique to the peak of the Dou Huang class to test Xiao Bieli. Unexpectedly, this aura had just reached three feet away from Xiao Bieli when it disappeared without a trace like a clay ox entering the sea.
" You…You really…" Hu Gan became even more shocked after this probing move.
"Nonsense!" Ignoring the shocked Hu Gan, Xiao Bieli said indifferently," I, Xiao Bieli, have always kept my word. When have you ever seen me go back on my word?”
Hu Gan recovered a little after a long while. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He sighed,"Sigh, the old principal is right. It's not strange for anything to happen to you. Only First Elder Su Qian did not believe in this and set this bet with you, this little monster. This time around, he is going to suffer a huge setback.”
"Hehe!" When he thought of Su Qian's deflated expression, Xiao Bieli could not help but laugh proudly.
"That's right, Old Ghost Hu! I happen to have something to ask of you."
Hu Gan's eyebrows raised as he thought,"It is not an easy matter to make this brat take the initiative to ask for help."”
"Tell me, what is it?"
Xiao Bieli said," This time, I brought a few youths from the Xiao Family. Although I opened the back door for them, their aptitudes are indeed not bad. You have to trust my judgment on this. My original intention was to personally guide them, but time didn't wait for me. There were some things outside that I had to handle personally. Therefore, after the bet between me and old ghost Su is over, I will leave the Jia Nan Academy for a period of time. During this period of time, I hope that you can help me look after them.”
After pausing for a moment, Xiao Bieli added,""I think that with your power as the Deputy Headmaster of the Outer Academy, this shouldn't be a difficult task, right?”
The corner of Hu Gan's mouth twitched and he said unhappily,"You brat, you're doing this again."
"Don't worry. I won't let you down since I owe you a favor.”Xiao Bieli took out a Tier 4 longsword from his jade pendant and casually threw it to Hu Gan. He continued," As a reward, I'll give this little toy that I casually forged to that little demoness Hu Jia.”
Hu Gan's expression immediately became shocked after receiving the rank four longsword and feeling it for a moment."Isn't this the divine weapon that was auctioned at the Jia Ma Empire's Temir Auction House? Our Jia Nan Academy even managed to obtain two of them at a price of five million gold coins.”
"What did you just say?" Recalling the second half of Xiao Bieli's words, Hu Gan suddenly rushed over at lightning speed. He suddenly grabbed Xiao Bieli's clothes and said with incomparable excitement," Just now, you said…that this was a little thing that you…casually forged…"
Xiao Bieli pushed away the excited Hu Gan and nodded as if nothing had happened. He continued,"However, it's fine as long as only the two of us know about this secret. I don't wish to get myself into trouble. If I let that old man Su Qian know, he might even open a sword forging class for me. At that time, it would be even more impossible for me to leave.”
"Alright! I can keep this a secret!”Hu Gan slyly smiled."However, the hush money for me, a peak Dou Huang…"
"Don't push your luck, Old Ghost Hu!”
"Uh-huh!" Hu Gan continued to have a complacent appearance,"Just say it. Are you giving it or not?"”
"I'm afraid of you, you old fart.”After a moment of stalemate, Xiao Bieli finally gave in helplessly," However, to forge a divine weapon of your level, I still need some time to prepare. I'll give it to you the next time I return.”
"That's more like it!"
Seeing Hu Gan's appearance of a villain who had achieved success, Xiao Bieli said hatefully,"Old ghost, you know that I hate people who threaten me the most in my life, yet you still dare to threaten me like this. You're quite bold!”
Hu Gan said proudly,"So what? Could it be that you can kill me?"”
"I have really been unlucky for eight lifetimes. Back then, I should not have come to this Jia Nan Academy, and I should not have gotten to know a greedy old fellow like you.”Xiao Bieli said regretfully.
"Alright, save it, kid!”Hu Gan said,"Let's quickly go to the Inner Academy. If First Elder Su Qian becomes anxious from waiting, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."”
"Let's go. I've really lost to you, old man.”
Immediately, the two of them left the Qi Refining Tower. Hu Gan spread his Dou Qi wings while Xiao Bieli rode his sword and tore through the air. The two of them flew towards the Jia Nan Academy's inner court one after the other.
The Jia Nan Academy was divided into the Inner and Outer Academies. Those new students who were recruited from all over the continent would train in the Outer Academy. When their strength reached a certain level, they would be able to participate in the annual Inner Academy Elite Selection Competition. Only the top fifty who entered the selection competition would obtain the qualifications to enter the Inner Academy. The Inner Academy was different from the Outer Academy. It could be bluntly said that the Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy was merely a place to test new students. The true core was still within the Inner Academy.
