Chapter 112: Chapter 90: Competition Between Two Women_2
Since Father said that Teacher Zhang Xuan’s methods were unconventional, she decided to seriously practice the Family Heritage Secret Technique… But why did she feel like her progress was minimal?
Before, in class, she practiced casually and her strength surged by 50%, from 0.4 to 0.6, yet now, after nearly a day and night of serious practice, she felt the difference was not significant…
Was Father wrong, or was Teacher Zhang Xuan mistaken?
In a moment, doubt arose in her heart.
Since childhood, she had always been the obedient girl at home, diligently following Father’s arrangements and orders. Father indeed treated her very well, which resulted in her becoming arrogant and indecisive, and somewhat prone to crying.
Father always disliked others defying his thoughts, and she had always complied, fearing mistakes. Fortunately, they had never encountered a problem over the years, but she suddenly felt today… that Father’s words yesterday might not be correct!
Because… she distinctly felt very uncomfortable while practicing the “Fuyao Energy Accumulation Technique”.
Knowing it wasn’t good to question Father, Liu Mingyue shook her head slowly and stood up.
“I certainly won’t reach 1.2. Should I still go to Teacher Zhang Xuan’s place?”
The Silk Pouch given by the teacher specified the requirement: only if her strength reached 1.2 this morning would he continue to teach her; otherwise, she was to leave.
The current situation made it clear she wouldn’t meet the requirement!
“I’ll go and see. If I can’t make it, Yu Xiaoyu definitely can’t, either. As long as I am stronger than her, I win…”
At least she listened during the classes, unlike that guy who didn’t listen at all. Surpassing him should still be easy and joyful, right?
When encountering a tiger, it’s enough simply to outrun your companion…
…
When Zhang Xuan entered the classroom, Hong Yi had indeed come early again, diligently cleaning.
At this moment, Hong Yi’s body thrummed with power, his presence vigorous. Clearly, he had not slackened off yesterday but had truly put an earnest effort into his practice.
“Did you meet my requirements?”
Zhang Xuan glanced over indifferently.
The requirement he had set the day before was 1 horsepower of strength. Though it seemed lower than what Liu Mingyue and Yu Xiaoyu needed, it was anything but simple, as he had never practiced before and only managed to increase his strength to 0.4 horsepower by seriously attending classes.
For him to surge from that figure to 1.0 was to increase his strength to 250% of what it had been before!
The difficulty was self-evident.
“I… I don’t know if I’ve reached it, but if Teacher won’t accept me, I will kneel at your doorstep until you agree, no matter what… I must study under your tutelage, so I dared to come clean.”
Hong Yi swiftly explained.
Without a Strength Measuring Formation, it was impossible to know exactly how high his strength was, but he knew that if this teacher didn’t accept him as a student, he would never have the chance to enter the classroom.
Therefore, there wasn’t much to be conflicted about. If he genuinely couldn’t pass, then he would simply beg; he had only one chance and wouldn’t miss it.
“You…”
With a helpless shake of his head, Zhang Xuan’s eyes showed a trace of consolation.
This type of student was what he hoped for.
Obedient, earnest!
Yu Xiaoyu and Liu Mingyue, who not only harbored their own motives but also brought many troubles. So, he might as well expel them directly today!
Thinking this, he then saw two girls also walking in.
The first was his student, Yu Xiaoyu, while the other was the past Miss, Mo Yanxue.
At that moment, Mo Yanxue had lost her previous coldness and pride, instead staring blankly at the young man nearby, her eyes full of disbelief.
Initially, when she had seen how he managed to overthrow housekeeper Feng Jin with the help of his horse, Suxiang, she thought him extraordinary, but she had never dreamed he would be this remarkable.
School Head Lu, City Lord Yu, both praised him highly, and he even became a school teacher, giving personal guidance to her close friend…
On the way here, after testing twice, she found her close friend indeed possessed more than 1 horsepower of strength!
One day’s practice, and her strength had more than doubled… A record unparalleled since the founding of Baiyan City, and the creator of this record was her former coachman…
The more she thought about it, the more she found it incredible, so she followed behind Yu Xiaoyu and came over.
When she looked at Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan also couldn’t help but look back.
“Zhang, Xuan… Teacher Zhang Xuan!”
Mo Yanxue spoke nervously.
“I wonder what Miss Mo is doing here?” Zhang Xuan asked curiously.
With clenched teeth, Mo Yanxue took a deep breath, bowed with clenched fists, and with a face full of anticipation: “Teacher Zhang, may I attend just one of your classes?”
“No!”
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
It wasn’t that Zhang Xuan was uncaring.
But this Miss Mo had not shown the slightest affection for him.
If it wasn’t for his ability to awaken spirits, perhaps after killing Suxiang, his life would have likely come to an end.
His subsequent liberation from the Mo Family, and revocation of his refugee status, were achieved through his own hard work, unconnected to her. Therefore, naturally, he wouldn’t agree to her attending his class.
Yu Xiaoyu was also stunned by his quick refusal: “Teacher Zhang…”
“Yu Xiaoyu, without my permission, don’t bring others here in the future!” Zhang Xuan said firmly.
“Teacher Zhang, Yanxue… she just wants to attend one class, and if it suits her, she is willing to study under you…” Yu Xiaoyu hurriedly spoke.
“First, I don’t need anyone else to study under me!”
Zhang Xuan shook his head: “Secondly, the requirement I gave you yesterday, if you haven’t met it today, you will also be expelled. You should consider your own situation before trying to speak for others.”
This Yu Xiaoyu had caused trouble in his class twice already; if she didn’t meet the standard today, no matter if she was the city lord’s daughter or not, she would be expelled.
