“Hey boy, were you talking to me?” Jin Xiang’s lips curled upwards.

“I hate people interrupting my meals,” Lan Xuanyu replied seriously.

“So what?” Not only did Jin Xiang not give way, he even took a step forward on purpose like he was about to plaster himself onto Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu turned sideways and wanted to go around Jin Xiang but he moved and blocked him once again.

Lan Xuanyu looked up and glanced at him. This time, he didn’t speak and moved the tray to his left hand. He then raised his right hand and grabbed Jin Xiang.

Jin Xiang scoffed. He turned slightly and dodged Lan Xuanyu’s right hand as he lowered his shoulder and knocked against his chest.

To be able to get into the Elite Junior Class, one would undoubtedly need to be a part of the elites of the younger generation and with that, each of them was wealthy. Jin Xiang was swift and was charging towards the tray in Lan Xuanyu’s hand. If he knocked against it from this angle, the leftovers on the tray would spill all over Lan Xuanyu and it would even knock him over.

Lan Xuanyu obviously wouldn’t let him have his way. Besides, his reaction speed was trained by Nana.

He turned sideways as well, he lowered his shoulder and blocked him.

“Bang!” Both their shoulders knocked against one another and it was both their right ones.

Jin Xiang felt as if he knocked against a piece of metal and as an offensive-type Spirit Master, he was very confident of his strength. He thought that Lan Xuanyu was clearly weaker than him and there was certainly no issue with him knocking him off.

However, the result was completely the opposite. The second they knocked against each other, Jin Xiang fell back a few steps and was totally unable to stop until he directly fell onto a pot behind him where he got his entire body soaked in vegetable soup. The pot fell to the ground as well.

On the other hand, Lan Xuanyu was still stood rooted to the ground.

“Hey boy!” Two of Jin Xiang’s buddies stood up immediately.

“You think we, Dorm 333, are nobodies, huh?” Qian Lei jumped forward and charged aggressively towards Lan Xuanyu’s side. Liu Feng also stood up silently and walked over.

Lu Qianxun, who was about to leave the canteen, stopped in his tracks and looked over in surprise at the situation there, then, he glanced at Lan Xuanyu before walking away.

“What’s happening here?” Just at this moment, a teacher entered and saw the pot on the floor. His face sank instantly. “In taking a mouthful of rice, one should bear in mind that its production is not easy. Is this what the school taught you? Go to the sports ground if you want to fight, you guys are wasting food by fighting in the canteen. You guys don’t have to eat anymore, then. To the ones who were fighting, step out now.”

Lan Xuanyu placed the tray in his hands down and turned around as he stepped out honestly.

Jin Xiang’s mouth twitched a little. He glared ferociously at Lan Xuanyu but he was flabbergasted on the inside. ‘How is this chap so strong?’

“Step out, everyone, stop eating. You are a team so all of you will be punished together.” The teacher said coldly.

The others gave them strange looks, even Lu Qianxun who just walked out was stopped.

Lan Xuanyu didn’t expect that he would be punished for the very first time he stepped into the sports field.

30 people lined up in three rows. They stood there in the same arrangement as their assigned dormitory with three people in a row.

Liu Feng was in front, Qian Lei in the middle and Lan Xuanyu was at the back as he was the tallest among the three of them.

Qian Lei placed his hand behind him and gave Lan Xuanyu a thumbs up; he was clearly praising him for that fight with Jin Xiang just now.

Thankfully, Lan Xuanyu had already eaten quite a bit before that and was basically finished all of the precious ingredients so he was rejoicing in his heart. He wasn’t full but he was about 60 to 70% filled.

The teacher stood in front and said plainly, “If you don’t even know how to respect food, then you guys are not entitled to eat them. We will end today’s lunch early and dinner as well. All of you will remain standing here till the start of the afternoon classes.” After speaking, he left.

There wasn’t any corporal punishment but their lunch was cut short by half.

Those who already had their bellies filled were still alright but there were some who had just started eating not long ago. The second the teacher walked away, everyone’s eyes were on Jin Xiang and Lan Xuanyu. They had implicated everyone!

“Why are you looking at me? He was the one who started it.” Jin Xiang’s body was soaked in vegetable soup and smelled like food. His face was gloomy.

Lan Xuanyu didn’t say a word, it was quite nice to share weal and woe together, everyone doesn’t get to eat anyway.

“The teacher just said that you guys can fight in the sports field. Either both of you fight or we will beat you guys up together,” Lu Qianxun said indifferently.

Jin Xiang’s eyes lit up. “Really?”

“Everyone, form a circle and block the center.” Lu Qianxun waved.

Most of the students in the Elite junior class actually listened to his instructions and naturally encircled them. There were only Jin Xiang and Lan Xuanyu left in the circle.

They were obviously upset about having to skip a meal but they didn’t mind it too much. Instead, they were more interested in watching Lan Xuanyu who sent Jin Xiang flying, especially the girls. He was good looking and age didn’t matter when it comes to the attraction of the opposite sex. These children may be about eight to ten years old but they definitely have a lot of appreciation for beauty.

“Lan Xuanyu, right. Hng!” Jin Xiang’s eyes suddenly glistened, a faint golden color appeared beneath his eyes and there was also a layer of golden color that appeared on the surface of his skin. He spread his arms wide and golden feathers drilled out, it was as if his arms turned into a pair of wings.

Flying-type spirit?

Lan Xuanyu could guess immediately. This was really rare! When he was at the previous school, there wasn’t a single flying-type spirit at all.

In the next second, Jin Xiang moved and his arms shook very swiftly, there was even a strong wind blowing. He was right in front of Lan Xuanyu in the next instant and his right wing struck his body directly. The golden feathers on his wing shook and there was even a sonorous metal sound.

His spirit was called the Flaming Golden Bird and it was a very special flying-type spirit that was said to be one of the ancestors of the bird-type spirit beasts. The three-legged Golden Crow that lives in the sun had many descendants and this Flaming Golden Bird possessed the bloodline in itself. It has both metal and fire properties but Jin Xiang was still only on his first Spirit Ring so obviously, he could not activate its full force. Even so, he was not weak in terms of speed and strength. Those golden feathers packed a lot of heat and if one got hit, it would obviously cause discomfort.

Lan Xuanyu furrowed his brows, the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass twined out of his left hand and covered his arm. He didn’t dodge and merely raised his left hand to grab that wing.

Courting death! Jin Xiang was delighted, confronting toughness with toughness, his first Spirit Skill, the Flaming Golden Wing, was not to be trifled with. Not only did it have the sharpness of metal, but it also had a high temperature. However, this was a school after all and he did hold back a little. He didn’t want to really hurt Lan Xuanyu either.

“Bang!” The Flaming Golden Wings stopped abruptly in Lan Xuanyu’s left hand just like that. A layer of ice fog was also released from his left hand to offset the heat.

A layer of ice fog froze on Lan Xuanyu’s left hand and before Jin Xiang’s other wing waved over him, his left hand jerked harshly and after a rumble, Jin Xiang’s right wing exploded. Jin Xiang groaned softly and although the golden feathers protected his entire right arm, he still got hurt from the explosion.

Then, Lan Xuanyu moved and his body charged forward. An ice awl was formed on his left hand and was pointed in front as he aimed directly for Jin Xiang’s eye. That bitter chill broke out in an instant and Jin Xiang got a shock. He quickly put both his arms together and tried to block it with his Flaming Golden Wings.

But the attack he imagined didn’t happen. Instead, the ground became very slippery all of a sudden.

All of his attention was at the top so when the ground became slippery, he lost his balance instantly.
