1910: Falling Out

Falling Out

She was so livid that her teeth threatened to shatter from how hard she was gritting them!1

He Wei sinisterly watched Qiao Mu and Mo Lian go, and she subconsciously clenched her fists.

This d*mn, hateful girl!

She simply didn't know what was good for her!

She was willing to pay, yet the girl told her "in your dreams?"

How hateful!

Zhou Danjin was also very upset. He had originally planned to smooth things over by bringing Sunlight Academy's group along since they were all academies from the Six Prefectures.

What he didn't expect though was that both the mentors and students from Sunlight Academy didn't know what was good for them and were all troublemakers!

That mentor from Sunlight Academy even dared to slander his students, saying that they had taken away the treasures in the main palace.

Sure enough, greed knows no bounds!

Without Qiao Mu transferring them out of the corridor, would their lives still be intact for them to fight for these treasures?

Zhou Danjin was regretting it now. If he had known these people would be so troublesome, then he should have charged them a hundred times extra for bringing them along!

Soon, everybody had assembled in the center of the main palace.

Honghui Academy's mentor announced, "After a preliminary inspection, there are four total passageways branching off from this main palace. It is unknown what each path will lead to."

"The best course of action would probably be for our four academies to split off into the four passageways." Wei Xu suggested after some deliberation, "If it's a dead end, we'll just make our way back and meet here in the main palace."

Everybody looked at each other in dismay.

Honghui Academy's mentor shook his head and said, "If we split up, our strength will also disperse."

"In that case, we'll be in deep trouble if we happen to encounter any kind of danger!"

Wei Xu swept the other party with an indifferent look. "Oh?"

"Then this mentor, you think it's better for everybody to take the same passageway?"

"Correct!" Sunlight Academy's head mentor quickly nodded and said, "We had better advance together.

Wei Xu gave them a noncommittal glance.

"Let's go!" Zhou Danjin led his students to a passageway on the left.

That Sunlight Academy mentor was still shouting out after them, "Hey, hey. You aren't planning to think it over more prudently?"

Yet Zhou Danjin and company simply ignored him as they entered the passageway.

The Sunlight Academy mentor was sullen.

Behind him, You Xin suggested, "How about we go by ourselves? There's no need to defer to those people from Apex Academy."

"What does that Apex Academy think they are to immediately turn hostile," criticized one of the students.

Feng Tong knitted his brows. "Can everybody stop bellyaching for now?"

"It's courteous if they bring us along, but there's nothing we can say even if they don't." After all, they weren't on familiar terms, so the other party didn't have the obligation to protect people from Sunlight Academy.

Feng Tong's words immediately provoked glares from several Sunlight Academy students.

He Wei yelled at him, "You traitor, of course you'd speak up for them."

Hearing this, Wang Haizhi glanced at He Wei. "In any case, Miss Qiao had saved us earlier…"

"You shut up!" He Wei screamed, "That was nothing to her. If she didn't dawdle, she could have long brought us out with that whatever transfer talisman matrix!"

On the side, Xu Liang chastised with a darkened face, "Are you done yet!"

"Who do you think you are? Why don't you think back to the mess you caused with those two girls from Apex Academy! Yet you still have the cheek to tell them to do this and that?"

He Wei was instantly enraged.
