Cultivation Pet Shop

The leader of this group of seniors was called Ouyang Xun, the son of Count Ouyang.

Unlike Count Chen who was only considered an average noble, Count Ouyang was actually a noble that had a bit of power since he had a position in the department of finance.

He was someone that had some say in the country's budget, so naturally respect was given to him.

Especially since it was also said that he dabbled in tax collection.

If they were to offend him, then…

When Ouyang Xun saw the situation in the practice room, his expression immediately turned dark as he glared at Jun Xie. However, it was above him to personally make a move against a first year, so he couldn't beat him up even if he wanted to.

After all, nobles had to care about their image and he couldn't do anything that would publicly disgrace his family. There were just too many people that were around in the end.

So with a snap and a gesture with his hand, one of his followers went forward to help Chen Ru and his followers.

This follower came up to Chen Ru and helped him down from the wall before asking, "Junior Chen, what happened here?"

Chen Ru hadn't been knocked out from being slammed into the wall, but he had suffered some minor injuries so he spat out a mouthful of blood. It took him a while to recover, but his eyes lit up when he saw who it was that came to help.

"Senior, we were just having a simple practice session with this classmate, but we never thought that he would be so ruthless. We even gave him a free blow because normally he's at the bottom of the rankings, but he took advantage of our kindness to launch a sneak attack on us! Senior, please take revenge for us!"

The follower gave a nod before saying, "Junior Chen, don't worry! I will settle accounts for you!"

When the people who had been in the room before heard this, they couldn't help revealing looks of disgust when they heard this. This was the most blatant twisting of facts that they had ever seen, but they weren't going to do anything about it.

That was because Ouyang Xun was the one that led this group.

Not a single one of them had enough power to match Count Ouyang, so they knew better than to stand up for Jun Xie. After all, they would just be causing trouble for their families if they were to stand up for him.

It was better for them to watch from the side or leave this place. In fact, there were a few people that left through the other entrance of this room when they saw that it was Ouyang Xun leading this group.

Jun Xie would have also wanted to leave this place, but there was no chance for him since he was the one that had started this.

The senior came forward and stood across Jun Xie on the practice stage before saying, "I will take revenge for my junior now. However, I can't have people think that I'm bullying you, so I'll give you a free hit as well."

This was very reasonable because this person was actually in the Embryo Soul Realm. Even if he was only in the Low Embryo Soul Realm, this was still a major realm that was between them.

So he had to think about his image.

He couldn't challenge this weaker junior in the Fragmented Soul Realm with revenge alone as a reason, he had to give himself a handicap to make it sound better.

But even then, Jun Xie still had an ugly expression on his face.

Would a single blow be enough to cross the gap between this major realm? No, it was impossible!

After the senior said this, he also summoned out his pet which was surprisingly another Shadow Fox.

When the Arctic Lynx saw the Shadow Fox, its flames of rage couldn't help being stoked again as it filled with killing intent towards the Shadow Fox.

Jun Xie was shocked by this.

For some reason, the Arctic Lynx wasn't afraid to fight this Shadow Fox at all even though this Shadow Fox was in the Low Embryo Soul Realm. It should be clear that the Arctic Lynx wasn't a match for it at all, but that didn't seem like to be the case to the Arctic Lynx.

Even the senior and the Shadow Fox were caught off guard by this because they felt a bit of danger coming from this Arctic Lynx.

But then they couldn't help feeling angry from shame because they couldn't believe that they had been afraid of this Arctic Lynx that was only in the Peak Fragmented Soul Realm.

The senior even shouted in an angry voice, "Are you coming or not?!"

Jun Xie clearly didn't want to get involved in this matter, but he didn't have a choice, so he said, "Xiao Han, be careful."

With this, the Arctic Lynx no longer held back, but this time it didn't gather the same storm of ice and snow from before. Instead, it had a slow start as it only dropped the temperature around it.

Everyone who had been watching couldn't help being surprised since they had seen the strong attack from the Arctic Lynx before. Some of them even wondered if the Arctic Lynx had run out of life energy after that large attack…

But before anyone could react, there was a sudden flash from the Arctic Lynx before both the Shadow Fox and the senior were encased in ice.

Neither of them had been able to react to this attack and after being encased, neither of them could do a single thing. They found that, let alone using their life energy, they weren't even able to move a single finger.

When they tried using their life energy, they found that it was being sucked away by the ice. It was as if anything that they tried to do was slowly being sucked away by the ice. They found that even their energy was slowly being sucked away by the ice and they were losing consciousness…

But before they could lose consciousness, Ouyang Xun finally made his move.

With a single flick of his hand, he shattered the ice that surrounded the two of them and they collapsed to the ground without any strength. Then he turned back to Jun Xie and said, "I never thought that you would be so ruthless in a practice match. You even used a killing move like "Absolute Freeze" on them."

The followers had been confused at first about what had happened, but when Ouyang Xun said the words "Absolute Freeze", they realized what had happened.

"Absolute Freeze" was a very special skill since it was a skill that wasn't easy to learn. It condensed the strongest ice laws and then used that to create a block of ice that had temperatures at absolute zero, completely absorbing everything that it touched. That was why the senior and the Shadow Fox hadn't been able to do a single thing since everything that they tried was drained away by the ice.

If they had been left there long enough, it would be certain that their vital energy would have been drained as well and they would have died.

So it wasn't an exaggeration to call him ruthless at all.

But at least now, Ouyang Xun finally had an excuse to act.

Unlike the rest of the people here, he was a true forerunner in his grade, being considered one of the top experts.

His cultivation had already reached the Peak Embryo Soul Realm and he was only a single step from breaking through to the Child Soul Realm.

This time, the Arctic Lynx didn't show the same confident look as before. Even if it was confident in crossing a major realm to fight, this was just too big of a gap that it can't fight back at all.

It even started to miss Lin Fan's training since it knew that was what had allowed it to become so strong…

But before Ouyang Xun could do anything, there was someone that suddenly came forward to stand between him and Jun Xie.

When this person appeared, everyone was shocked.

That was because this person was the daughter of Duke Yang, Yang Xi Ruo!

Unlike these sons of counts, the daughter of a duke naturally had a higher status. Especially since it was Duke Yang who was one of the Five Great Generals of the Mu Stellar Kingdom.

It was hard to find anyone with a higher status among all the people in the first year class.

Ouyang Xun was taken aback, but he was raised differently, so he quickly reacted by giving Yang Xi Ruo a bow and saying, "Your highness, what are you doing here?"

"Your highness" was normally saved for royalty, but this was applicable in this situation since each of the dukes were regarded as kings. So in a sense, Yang Xi Ruo was a princess and could be addressed as such.

Yang Xi Ruo gave a cold snort and said, "I couldn't keep watching you bullying the weak anymore. Are you really not ashamed of doing this?"

Ouyang Xun trembled when he heard this, but he was already in too deep to back down now even if the other side was the daughter of Duke Yang. The only thing that he could do now was try to use logic to convince her otherwise.

So Ouyang Xun lowered his head again and said, "Your highness, how is this bullying the weak? We're the ones that have been suffering at the hands of this brute. Can't you see how my classmate and his junior have all been injured by this violent man? Can you really tell me not to get revenge for them?"

Yang Xi Ruo gave another cold snort before saying, "Do you really think that I don't know what's going on? It was clearly Chen Ru who provoked Jun Xie first and then your follower was the one that tried to sweep this matter under the rug by taking care of Jun Xie."

This time, Ouyang Xun, his followers, Chen Ru, and all of Chen Ru's followers all trembled when they heard this.

They couldn't believe that Yang Xi Ruo already knew about all of this…They didn't see her in this practice room before, so how had she figured all of this out?

But no matter what, it wasn't as if they could admit to this now…

So the only thing that they could do was continue the lie.

Ouyang Xun glared at Chen Ru for dragging him down before looking up at Yang Xi Ruo to say, "Your highness, how could it be like that? It really is my classmate and his junior that was…"

Yang Xi Ruo raised her hand to cut him off before saying, "Enough of these lies, I'm tired of them."

Ouyang Xun had a very ugly look on his face and a trace of anger from being cut off like this, but he still bowed his head without saying a thing.

Yang Xi Ruo then said, "Instead, let's make a bet."

Once again, everyone revealed a shocked look when they heard this.
