On the side, Xiao Yu also widened her eyes, wearing an expression of astonishment. She hadn't expected Lu Yunxiao to be just fourteen years old.
"Fourteen years old, a year younger than that jerk, Xiao Yan." Xiao Yu muttered inwardly, a hint of surprise on her delicate face. "And Yunxiao's personality is this good, truly rare. Compared to that jerk, Xiao Yan, there's simply no comparison."
Recalling how Xiao Yan had peeked at her while she was bathing, Xiao Yu gritted her teeth in anger. That jerk Xiao Yan was the most detestable person she had ever encountered in her life.
However, this junior, Yunxiao, seemed pleasing in every aspect. His looks were genuinely handsome, and while Xiao Yu never considered herself a slave to appearances, Lu Yunxiao's looks and demeanor deeply moved and impressed her.
Seeing everyone's stunned expressions directed at Lu Yunxiao, Ruo Ling smiled knowingly and spoke softly, "This one here is the genius recently talked about in the academy. His achievements are indeed real; I witnessed them myself."
Ruo Ling's words added fuel to the fire. This further astonished everyone. With Ruo Ling's confirmation, does that mean Lu Yunxiao truly defeated three Dou Shi’s with a single strike as rumored?
Wow, that's incredibly terrifying upon deeper thought! Being a prodigy was one thing, but his actual combat strength was even more horrifying than imagined. Defeating three Dou Shi’s as a Dou Zhe himself—this was unheard of!
"Truly amazing, this is what a true genius looks like." Xiao Yu couldn't help but mutter. Originally, she hadn't entirely believed the rumors circulating in the academy. While she acknowledged Lu Yunxiao's talent, she had some doubts about his achievements.
But now, with Ruo Ling confirming it publicly. Since Tutor Ruo Ling wouldn't lie, it meant all those exaggerated accomplishments were true. This left her somewhat shocked. This young man in front of her was exceptionally outstanding, surpassing ordinary imagination.
"From today onwards, this fellow student, Lu Yunxiao, will be studying together with you all. I hope everyone can get along harmoniously and progress together. Alright, Yunxiao, take a seat now. And please, don't get distracted when the teacher is around," Ruo Ling said softly after giving Lu Yunxiao a slight reprimand, then continued in a gentle tone.
Lu Yunxiao touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed. He hadn't expected the matter of him talking to Xiao Yu to be noticed by Ruo Ling. Being called out by the teacher during the first class after enrollment felt a bit awkward.
"Students, let's start our lesson now. Today, we'll discuss some important aspects of combat skills cultivation, including..." Ruo Ling gently began the class, her melodious voice slowly bringing everyone's attention back from their astonishment.
Lu Yunxiao sat upright, glanced at Xiao Yu beside him, and then immersed himself in studying ‘Thoughts on Alchemy’. As for the basic things Ruo Ling was discussing, he already knew them and didn't find it necessary to listen.
On the other side, Xiao Yu occasionally glanced at him, her eyes filled with curiosity.
...
Soon, the class came to an end. Ruo Ling finished her lecture and gently set down the white chalk in her hand.
"Class dismissed!" Ruo Ling scanned the room and announced the end of the class.
Instantly, the crowd became chaotic. A group of female students surrounded Lu Yunxiao, eager to get to know this handsome and outstanding junior brother.
"Hello, Junior Brother Lu, I'm Xueni. Let's be friends."
"Yunxiao Junior Brother, you're so amazing! To defeat three Dou Shi’s with a single strike, how did you do it?"
"Junior Brother, you're really handsome."
"Yunxiao Junior Brother, it was me earlier calling you. Why didn't you come over before class, hmph!"
The group of female students surrounded Lu Yunxiao, chattering incessantly. Seeing these senior sisters, Lu Yunxiao couldn't help but twitch his lips, revealing a wry smile.
These senior sisters were just too enthusiastic; it was a bit overwhelming!
Fortunately, it seemed Ruo Ling noticed his awkward situation and with a soft call, she diffused his embarrassment.
"Yunxiao, come here for a moment," Ruo Ling's gentle voice reached Lu Yunxiao.
"Ladies, please make some space. Teacher Ruo Ling has something to discuss with me," Lu Yunxiao said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Upon hearing this, the group of female students reluctantly made way, wearing expressions of regret.
"Thank you, ladies." Lu Yunxiao expressed his gratitude before swiftly heading in Ruo Ling's direction.
"Teacher Ruo Ling!" Lu Yunxiao walked up to Ruo Ling, and he noticed Xiao Yu was also by her side.
Xiao Yu was more astute. When she saw the group of female students surrounding Lu Yunxiao earlier, she immediately withdrew to avoid getting caught up in the crowd.
Ruo Ling looked at Lu Yunxiao with a smiling expression and asked softly, "I was actually planning to introduce Xiao Yu to you, but it seems you've already met. What do you think of Xiao Yu?"
Glancing at Xiao Yu, Lu Yunxiao replied, "Senior Sister Xiao Yu is naturally beautiful."
"Xiao Yu is still single. You should seize the opportunity," Ruo Ling said with a meaningful wink at Lu Yunxiao.
At these words, Lu Yunxiao wore a wry smile, and Xiao Yu's cheeks blushed slightly, displaying a hint of shyness.
"Teacher Ruo Ling, could you not meddle in this?" Lu Yunxiao couldn't help but feel amused. How come this beautiful teacher liked to involve herself in these matters? Was she the god of love?
"I'm just concerned about my student's love lives. Cultivation is important, but so is emotional life. It's not easy to meet the right person in one's lifetime. I think you two match well," Ruo Ling said earnestly.
"Teacher Ruo Ling!" Xiao Yu grabbed Ruo Ling's arm, her face full of bashfulness. Ruo Ling's words were too obvious.
"Don't be shy. Yunxiao is quite popular. You just saw it. If you don't take the initiative, this good boy might be taken by someone else," Ruo Ling teased.
"Teacher Ruo Ling, could you please stop? Senior Sister Xiao Yu is great, but I already like someone else. Please don't play matchmaker," Lu Yunxiao shook his head. He hadn't intended to say it, but since Ruo Ling made it so obvious, he had no choice.
Although he wasn't a devoted man, he wasn't a heartbreaker either. If he didn't like Xiao Yu, he wouldn't flirt with her or intentionally create ambiguities. Apart from hurting her, it served no purpose, and it wasn't interesting.
Note: Xiao Yu initially disliked Xiao Yan in the original work. This chapter follows that, no random writing!
