Chapter 147 - 147 147 No Mercy
147: Chapter 147: No Mercy 147: Chapter 147: No Mercy “Class first?” Huang Xiaolong was startled, then laughed, “That’s right, this time, I want to claim the top spot again!”
Of course, Huang Xiaolong left something unsaid—this time he wasn’t only aiming for first in class, but also for first in grade and first overall in the academy competition!
Upon hearing this, Lu Kai chuckled, “Alright!
You’re strong!
Keep up your unbeaten legend!”
Ever since Huang Xiaolong joined Star Sky Academy, he had always been either first in class or first in grade, each and every year—the tales of Huang Xiaolong’s unbeaten legend were already widespread within the academy!
As Lu Kai said this, he laughed, “However, now that you’re moving up to the third year, this year, I finally get a chance to be first in class again!”
With Huang Xiaolong advancing to the third year, and the current second year class six being led by the strongest, Lu Kai, securing first in class was no suspense.
Actually, Lu Kai was quite “pleased” about Huang Xiaolong advancing to the third year.
Over the past years, Lu Kai, a prince of Luotong Kingdom, had been overshadowed by Huang Xiaolong in the same class, which were his most frustrating years.
Huang Xiaolong and Lu Kai chatted and laughed while heading towards the Holy Hall of the academy.
“You kid are now rich enough to rival the nation!” Lu Kai somewhat lamented, “At the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction, you casually threw out over twenty million, while I don’t even have two million now!”
Huang Xiaolong laughed, “When you inherit the throne, the whole Luotong Kingdom will be yours.”
Lu Kai shook his head with a smile, “Who knows how long that will be.”
Although Lu Kai had been designated as the next heir to the throne of Luotong Kingdom, the first requirement for every heir was to reach Tenth Rank.
Though Lu Kai had decent talent, it was uncertain how long it would take for him to reach Tenth Rank.
Huang Xiaolong smiled and said nothing further.
Shortly after, Huang Xiaolong and some others arrived at the Holy Hall of Star Sky Academy.
The arrival of Huang Xiaolong and Lu Kai caused a huge commotion in the Holy Hall.
By now, Huang Xiaolong was a legend within Star Sky Academy, admired and pursued by thousands of students, and even his dressing style was emulated by many students.
Huang Xiaolong’s hair was casually tied with a thin rope over his shoulders, typically dressed in light blue robes.
Having turned seventeen after the new year, he now stood over 1.8 meters tall, not particularly fair-skinned, but with a healthy glow, deep eyes, and a prominent nose, making him an exceptionally handsome young man.
Additionally, Huang Xiaolong exuded a kind of effortless arrogance.
Yes, an effortless arrogance that added an extra charm, making women’s hearts flutter at the sight of him.
“Huang Xiaolong!”
“Huang Xiaolong, I love you!”
As the hall burst into a fervent roar, some female students screamed excitedly, much like the celebrity fans back on Earth in those years.
“Now, your brilliance completely overshadows this prince!” Lu Kai joked to Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong just smiled.
However, not everyone in the Holy Hall was crazy or excited about Huang Xiaolong—some male students harbored quite a bit of resentment towards him.
After all, no man liked seeing so many women go crazy over another man, especially when the women they admired were among them.
Among the crowd, a woman in white also gazed at Huang Xiaolong with a peculiar sparkle in her eyes.
It was Chen Caixiu, who had competed against Huang Xiaolong for first in the second year.
Chen Caixiu had advanced to the third year a year earlier than Huang Xiaolong but was now also in class three of the third year, the same class as Huang Xiaolong.
“I didn’t expect this abnormal man to advance to the third year this year too,” Chen Caixiu murmured to herself.
While always paying attention to Chen Caixiu, a handsome student watched her lost expression coldly and looked at Huang Xiaolong.
This handsome student was Zhou Teng, a student from the Inner Court of the academy.
Zhou Teng, currently the strongest student in the Inner Court, was also universally acknowledged as the most talented student in Star Sky Academy.
Zhou Teng had long admired Chen Caixiu but had been rejected several times after confessing his feelings.
At that moment, a fair-faced youth stepped forward from behind Zhou Teng and said with a smile, “This Huang Xiaolong, relying on the talent of the Ancient Divine Dragon, has become somewhat arrogant.
Brother Zhou, should we ask Lin Han to give Huang Xiaolong some special attention later?”
Lin Han was a student in the same third-grade class as Huang Xiaolong and currently the strongest in that class.
Zhou Teng glanced at the fair-faced youth and nodded, “Go ahead, and tell Lin Han that if he defeats Huang Xiaolong, I will reward him with a Fifth-grade Middle-stage Spirit Pill!”
“Yes, Brother Zhou.”
At this time, Huang Xiaolong had entered the Holy Hall with Lu Kai and Huang Min; his brother Huang Xiaohai had separated from them and reached his current class, third-grade class three.
Upon reaching third-grade class three, Huang Xiaolong saw Chen Caixiu and was momentarily stunned, then nodded at her.
Chen Caixiu approached Huang Xiaolong and smiled, “I didn’t expect you to advance to third grade so quickly.
Now that we’re in the same class, we might even get a chance to compete later.”
Huang Xiaolong smiled and said, “Then you should go easy on me later.”
Chen Caixiu covered her mouth and giggled, “I should be saying that to you.”
Back then, she had broken through to Ninth Rank while Huang Xiaolong was still at the Peak of the Eighth Stage Middle Stage, and she wasn’t his match.
In her view, even though Huang Xiaolong had also broken through to Ninth Rank now, she, being at the Peak of Ninth Stage Early Stage, would not likely be his match either.
From a distance, Zhou Teng, seeing Chen Caixiu and Huang Xiaolong chatting and laughing, felt even more jealous, as if his chest was on fire.
At that moment, Lin Han stepped forward and approached Chen Caixiu and Huang Xiaolong.
“Are you Huang Xiaolong?” Lin Han looked Huang Xiaolong up and down.
“Correct.” Huang Xiaolong was completely calm.
“I’m Lin Han,” Lin Han started, “Since entering Star Academy, you have been the top of your class each year.
However, this year, your undefeated legend will end.”
A thick smell of gunpowder spread out.
The surrounding crowd couldn’t help but look over.
“Is that so?” Huang Xiaolong replied indifferently.
Lin Han sneered, “Don’t think that just because the dean values you and you have the Marshal backing you up, I will go easy on you.
On the competition stage, I won’t show you the mercy others have.”
Huang Xiaolong, and everyone around, could hear the underlying meaning―that Huang Xiaolong had only won the first place in his class and grade every year because others, concerned about the Marshal behind him, had shown him mercy, letting him win.
“I won’t show you any mercy either,” Huang Xiaolong said lightly.
Hearing this, Lin Han snorted coldly and turned away.
“Lin Han is very strong, Huang Xiaolong, you should be careful later.
He is at the Early Stage of Tenth Rank!” Chen Caixiu warned Huang Xiaolong after Lin Han had left.
Huang Xiaolong looked at Chen Caixiu’s worried eyes and smiled, “I will.”
Chen Caixiu’s face blushed, she nodded, then turned and left.
