Chapter 728: Chapter 726: The Miserable Chu Tianhao

“How about I teach you how to be a human being?”

The same words Lin Xuan now threw back at him.

If it had been someone else, Chu Tianhao would have definitely slapped them for daring to teach him such a lesson.

But now, he didn’t dare to make a move.

Lin Xuan’s Martial Soul was too sharp and completely suppressed his own.

Now, his heart was filled with regret. Why had he been so determined to take on this task?

Why hadn’t he investigated Lin Xuan’s background before coming?

If he had known how formidable Lin Xuan was, perhaps he wouldn’t have come at all.

But it was too late for regrets now.

“”What, what do you want to do?”“ Chu Tianhao asked in panic, “”I warn you, I’m from the Dao Ling Association, if you dare to touch me, you’re as good as dead!”“

He had no choice but to invoke the Dao Ling Association in an attempt to intimidate the other party.

However, Lin Xuan showed no fear upon hearing this, his smile growing even broader.

“”Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. I’m still aware of the rules of the Immortal Martial Academy,”“ Lin Xuan said with a laugh, “”I just want to teach you how to be a human being.”“

Chu Tianhao almost cried at the sight of that deep, sinister smile.

Indeed, the Immortal Martial Academy prohibited killing fellow disciples, but some pains were worse than death.

Chu Tianhao knew that Lin Xuan wouldn’t let him off easily.

Sure enough, with a wave of his hand, Lin Xuan released the Dark Red Divine Dragon and the Snow White Monkey.

“”Come on, let His Majesty teach you how to be a human being!”“ the Dark Red Divine Dragon was so excited, “”Teaching is my specialty, leave it to me!”“

The Snow White Monkey was equally thrilled, dancing with joy.

“”Snake Spirit!”“

Chu Tianhao screamed in alarm.

“”Damn, what a way to talk. His Majesty really needs to educate you properly!”“

The Dark Red Divine Dragon was displeased, “”Little guy, tie him up!”“

“”Escape!”“

Driven to madness, Chu Tianhao turned into countless wisps of white smoke that fled in every direction.

This was his Escape Secret Method; as long as a single wisp of smoke escaped, he could leave.

But he had underestimated the Dark Red Divine Dragon and the Snow White Monkey.

Watching the white smoke scatter, the Dark Red Divine Dragon let out a cold laugh. It waved its Dragon Claw and quickly set up an Array, covering a hundred meters in all directions.

Soon after, a strange force formed within the Array, revealing Chu Tianhao’s true form.

Then, a bolt of Thunder Light appeared, zigzagging with dazzling bursts towards Chu Tianhao.

It was as if a Thunder Dragon roared furiously.

Buzz!

In an instant, the Thunder Light turned into a straight line that trapped Chu Tianhao.

Chirp chirp

The Snow White Monkey was excited, using the Thunder God Whip in its hands to bind the opponent.

Plop!

With a casual pull, Chu Tianhao was dragged down.

His mind stunned, he couldn’t believe it.

This time, without Lin Xuan lifting a finger, two Demon Beasts had taken care of him?

What was going on with the world? He felt he couldn’t keep up with its pace anymore!

“”Boy, His Majesty’s education begins now…”“

Ahh ahh ahh!

Soon after, miserable screams filled the air, echoing like ghosts wailing and wolves howling, horrifying enough to make the nearby Demon Beasts flee.

It took a long time before those sounds finally disappeared.

“”Demon, demon!”“

Chu Tianhao’s curled-up body, like a victimized young wife, was utterly pitiful.

After dealing with the Golden-eyed Demon Bat’s corpse, Lin Xuan came over to Chu Tianhao.

“”How was it?”“

“Assure you, from now on this lad will surely be a good person!” the Dark Red Divine Dragon promised, patting its chest.

“Well, here’s his Immortal Martial Spirit Card and Storage Ring.”

Lin Xuan took them with satisfaction and then began to examine the Spiritual Plate.

“Two hundred Spiritual Value? That’s it?” Lin Xuan frowned.

“Hey, aren’t you someone from the Dao Ling Association? Why are you so poor?”

At these words, Chu Tianhao’s mouth twitched, “If there’s Spiritual Value, it’s spent. Who would let it accumulate.”

“Forget it,” Lin Xuan said, disappointed, “Just throw the Spiritual Plate over. I’m letting you off easy this time.”

“Letting off easy?” Chu Tianhao cried out. Not only had he received a profound ‘education,’ but everything, including his Storage Ring, had been taken away. This was hardly getting off easy.

He realized that compared to Lin Xuan, he was nothing. The other was the real demon!

“I’ll spare you this time; if you’re looking for trouble again, remember to bring more Spiritual Value!”

Lin Xuan took the other’s Storage Ring and left with the Dark Red Divine Dragon and Snow White Monkey.

In the forest, only Chu Tianhao’s miserable howling remained…

Immortal Martial Academy, several youths were waiting near the entrance, by a pavilion.

These were members of the Dao Ling Association, including Yan Qingyang.

“Checking the time, Chu Tianhao should be done by now; why hasn’t he returned?”

“Probably that kid has thought up some new trick to torture someone,” the youths discussed among themselves.

Yan Qingyang, however, had a slight frown on his brow, harboring a bad feeling for some reason.

“Brother Yang, don’t worry, it’s just a freshman, a Fake Venerable at that. What waves can such a person make?”

“Exactly, it’s not like…”

Another disciple began with a laugh but his words stopped abruptly, for he saw someone.

“That kid? How is that possible?”

They were shocked. How could he be unscathed?

“Damn it, could it be that Chu Tianhao didn’t make a move?”

Seeing Lin Xuan return unharmed, Yan Qingyang’s expression instantly turned grim.

“Hmph, tell Chu Tianhao to come see me!”

With that, he vanished in a flash of light, sweeping his robe aside.

The remaining few looked at each other in bewilderment.

After returning, Lin Xuan made a beeline for the Task Hall.

These two tasks were just a warm-up; he just wanted to understand how task assignments worked.

Once everything became clear, he would challenge those tasks with higher Spiritual Values.

Out of the two tasks, one was a basic task of the academy, with only a paltry consolation of one hundred Spiritual Value, and for the other task he chose, Lin Xuan garnered one thousand five hundred Spiritual Value.

A One-star Demon General, for one thousand five hundred Spiritual Value—it seems earning Spiritual Value really isn’t easy!

Lin Xuan curled his lips, stowed the Spiritual Value, and then returned to his own courtyard.

Meanwhile, in the residential area for older students, people gathered in a modest mansion where Yan Qingyang and others were present, including Chu Tianhao.

At this time, Chu Tianhao’s face was pale, his expression listless, clearly yet to recover from the previous ‘education.’

“Old Chu, what happened? How did you let that kid return unscathed?”

“Yeah, didn’t you take action?” asked the surrounding martial artists.

Yan Qingyang’s face was also stern, “What happened? You must give me an explanation for this!”

Hearing everyone ask, Chu Tianhao seemed to remember something, and his body shivered involuntarily.

He said weakly, “I did take action, but I failed.”

“Failed? How is that possible?” the crowd disbelieved, “Your Smoke Martial Soul is so powerful; how could he possibly resist it?”

“It was useless. His Martial Soul is even more bizarre, completely my nemesis,” Chu Tianhao shook his head, unwilling to elaborate further, as this related to his humiliation.

“Brother Yang, that kid is very strange, his Martial Soul is extremely sharp, I’m not his match,” Chu Tianhao said and without waiting for the others to react, left on his own.

“Strange? Sharp!” The crowd was stunned, seeing Chu Tianhao’s state, it was clear he had suffered a major loss.

Could the opponent really be such a tough nut to crack?

Yan Qingyang’s brows furrowed even more, he said solemnly, “Send someone to investigate that kid’s background thoroughly. We must get a clear picture!”
