Just then, Luo Guixing sneered inwardly and opened his mouth, "Teacher Xu, now that Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi have transferred to our class, how should we divide them into groups?"
Having just offended them, it was easy enough to deal with Gu Yue, but none of the groups in the entire class would accept these two!
Wu Dousi seemed to catch the implication as well and said coldly, "That's right, Teacher, if they don't join a group, they'll be eliminated for lack of results!"
Xu Yucheng said leisurely, "Yeah, but with the new students being so bad-tempered, I'm afraid no one is willing to accept them."
Other students who had wanted to recruit Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi felt a sinking in their hearts, knowing full well that Wu Dousi and the rest were issuing a threat!
... all of them starting to retract their previous thoughts...
Upon hearing their words, Xu Sheng nodded and said, "Hmm, you do have a point. So, which group is willing to let Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi join them?"
After speaking, she looked around with her dark eyes...
However, not a single student dared to make a sound, and the entire classroom fell into an eerie silence.
Ye Xinglan's beautiful eyes flashed with coldness as she couldn't help but clench her fists...
She, a pre-determined Inner Court student, was actually being dismissed by these Outer Court students!!
It was an outright insult!
Xu Lizhi, standing beside her, looked somewhat panicked, "Sister Xinglan, if nobody is willing to take us in, things could get troublesome!"
Luo Guixing, seeing things unfold as he had anticipated, broke the silence once again, "It seems no one wants to accept you, I really am sorry."
Wu Dousi said indifferently, "Our group is already at full capacity, so unfortunately, we cannot invite the two of you to join."
Xu Yucheng feigned anger, "What's this, everyone? Is this really the right way to treat the new students??"
Reminded by this, the other students quickly shifted their gaze away as if they hadn't seen Ye Xinglan and the other newcomer at all!
Going against Wu Dousi and her group would only result in hurting themselves!!
Seeing the scene before her, Gu Yue's eyes narrowed slightly as she said calmly, "This is an overt target!"
Tang Wulin nodded and explained, "It's not that everyone is reluctant to let Ye Xinglan and the other join; they are simply intimidated by Luo Guixing and his group, so they've chosen to compromise."
Xie Xie said coldly, "Their position in the class has already far surpassed Gu Yue as class president; if things continue like this, the entire class one may fall under their control!"
Xu Xiaoyan hesitated before saying, "What should we do, then? Why don't we... After all, these guys are planning to isolate us as well! Having two more strong students in our group wouldn't be bad!
Wei Xiaofeng nodded, "I agree with what Xiao Yan said! Wu Dousi and the others want to isolate us, dream on!"
Wang Jinxi pursed his lips, "Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi are able to enter the Inner Court, their strength must be considerable!!"
Xu Sheng's lips curled into a smile as he spoke softly, "It seems no one is willing to take in Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi, so..."
At this moment, Gu Yue suddenly said, "Teacher Xu, let them join our group!"
Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Then, Ye Xinglan, Xu Lizhi, are the two of you willing to join Gu Yue's group?"
Ye Xinglan crossed her arms and turned her head, "I don't want to!"
Xu Lizhi quickly added, "Xu... Teacher Xu... Sister Xinglan, she misspoke, we are willing! Willing!"
Seeing this, Ye Xinglan said with some displeasure, "Lizhi, why did you agree? If it comes to it, we'll just be our own group!"
She didn't want others' charity.
Xu Lizhi moved closer and whispered to her, "Sister Xinglan, I don't want to agree either, but just the two of us can't possibly make a Mecha."
It seemed Sister Xinglan had been so clouded by anger that she'd forgotten such an important matter!
Ye Xinglan was taken aback, immediately realizing that Xu Lizhi had a point!
She thought to herself, "Damn it, did anger cloud my judgment? How could I forget something like this?"
Xu Sheng looked at Ye Xinglan, who was struggling a bit, and said gently, "Ye Xinglan, are you willing or not after all?"
Ye Xinglan's cheeks flushed with a hint of red as she muttered, "I am... willing."
Xu Sheng didn't say anything more and announced, "Well, then you two are now members of Gu Yue's team!"
The eyes of the two met with Gu Yue's for a moment, and they nodded, "Mhm!"
Zheng Yiran mocked out of the blue, "Tsk, a trash Soul Master joins a trash team, how fitting!"
Yang Nianxia narrowed her eyes and said, "That's not something you can say so casually; after all, they were eliminated from the Inner Court, it might not be so simple."
Luo Guixing interrupted, "Cut it out, Yang Nianxia, I think you're being overly concerned. If they really had any talent, how could they have been eliminated to the outer courtyard?"
Wu Dousi's expression didn't change as she said coldly, "Regardless of whether they've joined a team or not, they pose no threat to us because... we are here to win the championship!!"
...
After class ended, the members of Gu Yue's group gathered together...
Ye Xinglan looked down modestly, a bit embarrassed, "Earlier... thank you for helping Lizhi and me out of that awkward situation!"
Tang Wulin waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, we're all students in the same class, naturally we have to help each other out."
Xie Xie chimed in, "That's right, we are now members of the same team, so no need to be so polite!"
Gu Yue remained silent, but her calm expression seemed to be an agreement.
Hearing these words, Ye Xinglan felt touched...
Xu Lizhi's eyes lit up, "Yeah! You're all right, I'll treat everyone to something to eat!"
"I have a meat bun..."
After saying a few words, in front of him, several meat buns filled with the fragrance of meat appeared out of thin air.
Xie Xie said in amazement, "Amazing! Is this the power of a food-class Soul Master?"
Gu Yue nodded, "Yes! However, this magic spell is very similar to that of a support-class Soul Master named Oscar from tens of thousands of years ago."
Tang Wulin rubbed his belly without any hesitation, picked up a bun, and took a light bite...
"Smells good, just don't know what the effects will be!"
The next second, after he swallowed it, his body underwent dramatic changes...
He said in astonishment, "So warm, there's a flow of warmth constantly surging through my limbs and organs..."
Seeing this, the others also picked up a bun and ate it...
"Is it really that magical? I'll try too... hiss... it seems to have restorative properties, right?"
"Really, hey, the bruise from my fall yesterday has disappeared!"
"No wonder he could enter the Inner Court, food-class Soul Masters are indeed convenient!"
Xu Lizhi said with a bit of simplicity, "Hehe... it's not as good as everyone says, Sister Xinglan is much more powerful than me!"
Gu Yue suddenly spoke up, interrupting, "Let's discuss these matters later. Wulin, tell them about that thing!"
Tang Wulin immediately understood, his deep blue eyes twinkled a few times...
Indeed, now that they had joined the team, they had to know that their forging goal was not Mecha, but the extremely challenging Battle Armor!
