Kapitel 16: Why is the Protagonist trying to Brush up his Presence?
"Young master Shen, you are here." Xiao Weimin called, and Zhen Yuan frowned in displeasure.
He didn't like the way Xiao Weimin called his wife.
The man made it obvious that he didn't take him seriously and wanted to dig his corner.
Fortunately, Shen Xu knew the protagonist's virtue.
When he heard Xiao Weimin's call, he wasn't flattered.
Instead, he felt a chill down his spine and barely resisted the urge to escape.
"My Taoist companion and I have finished our errands." Shen Xu said and pulled Zhen Yuan to sit down.
"Are the two fellow Daoists also going to the capital?" Qin Ran suddenly asked.
"Young miss Qin too?" Shen Xu inquired.
"The Academy's registration time is almost here, so I will follow Brother Weimin to the capital." The young lady answered proudly.
'Brother Weimin?' Shen Xu couldn't help but shudder.
When they met earlier, Qin Ran called 'brother Xiao' instead of 'brother Weimin'.
As someone who had read the original novel, Shen Xu knew the members of the protagonist's harem.
From every aspect, each woman or double was outstanding.
Their appearance was excellent, and they were the best at what they did. Compared to the harem, Qin Ran was a toad trying to eat swan meat!
'She is going to be a cannon fodder.' He thought and looked at Qin Ran with pity in his eyes.
However, his pity was short-lived.
At the end of the day, Qin Ran was not an innocent bystander.
She was a wilful young lady willing to do anything to get what she wanted.
If she had a bad end, it was because others could play the game better than she could.
With such thoughts in mind, Shen Xu put away his pity and looked at Bai Guo.
"Is young master Bai also going to the Divine Rainbow Academy?" He asked.
Under his mask, Bai Guo frowned.
He was not from the Canglan continent and didn't plan to stay for too long.
However, leaving the continent was easier said than done.
At the moment, he could only join the Academy and hope to find a way out.
"Young master Shen is right. I am also going." Bai Guo said.
This was not the answer that Shen Xu wanted.
On one hand, he wanted to be closer to Bai Guo, and on the other, he wanted to stay away.
Since his emotions were conflicted, Shen Xu hoped for the safest outcome.
If Bai Guo didn't enter the academy, there would be fewer opportunities for them to meet.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side.
"When young master Shen enters the Academy, he will be my junior brother." Xiao Weimin weighed in, and Shen Xu felt helpless.
He didn't know what was going on with the protagonist.
In the book, Xiao Weimin didn't like Shen Xu.
He married him as a concubine but only went to his bed on their wedding night.
Even then, Xiao Weimin was drunk, and the wedding night was unpleasant for the book Shen Xu.
Considering this, Shen Xu didn't know why the protagonist was trying to brush up his presence in front of him.
"What school does young master Shen plan to enter?" Qin Ran asked.
"Weapon refining school." Shen Xu answered, and the others were a little shocked.
The weapon refining school was the least popular in the Divine Rainbow Academy.
Most importantly, Shen Xu was a double.
Ordinarily, most of those who entered the weapon refining school were rough young men. Doubles and female cultivators rarely took the weapon-refining path.
"If young master Shen is a weapon refiner, he should have a fire spirit root?" Xiao Weimin asked.
As he spoke, his brows were creased in concern and distress.
"Young master Xiao is right. I have a fire root."
"In that case, why not change to the school of alchemy?" The protagonist suggested and then continued.
"I am afraid young master Shen will be too tired if he enters the weapon refining school."
"Young master Xiao is overreaching." Zhen Yuan said with narrowed eyes.
He had tolerated the protagonist for long enough, and he didn't want to do it any longer.
"What my Taoist companion does has nothing to do with young master Xiao."
When he heard that, Xiao Weimin frowned.
He didn't like Zhen Yuan and couldn't help but look down on him.
"Young master Shen is a double. How can you let him work hard in the weapon refining school?" Xiao Weimin questioned with a voice full of disdain.
"My wife is a double, but he is not weak. He will enter the weapon refining school because he wants to be a weapon refiner. If he wanted to be an alchemist, we would naturally find a way." Zhen Yuan said.
However, Xiao Weimin didn't believe Zhen Yuan.
He felt that Shen Xu was forced to enter the weapon refining school because the couple couldn't afford the resources required to be an alchemist.
The more Xiao Weimin thought about it, the more convinced he was.
In the end, he saw the situation as an opportunity.
If he could help Shen Xu become an alchemist, wouldn't the double be in his debt?
At that time, wouldn't Shen Xu obediently become his?
Xiao Weimin was excited by the very thought!
Before he could give the matter another thought, enticing words flowed out of his mouth.
"As it happens, GuoGuo is an alchemist. If young master Shen wants, he can use the introduction to alchemy we bought from the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. When we arrive at the Academy, I will prepare more resources for my junior brother." Xiao Weimin offered with a kind smile on his lips.
However, Shen Xu felt creepy, and Zhen Yuan became angrier.
In that moment, Zhen Yuan didn't care that Xiao Weimin was the main protagonist. All he wanted was to beat the young man to death.
Fortunately, Shen Xu held his hand and didn't allow him to be reckless.
"I like weapon refining and don't want to become an alchemist." Shen Xu said impatiently.
"Young master Shen doesn't know…" Xiao Weimin started, but Shen Xu glared at him coldly.
Seeing that the beauty was angry, Xiao Weimin didn't continue.
However, he didn't give up.
In his mind, he felt that Shen Xu was too innocent and naive.
He felt that the double didn't know the world and didn't know the status of an alchemist.
Fortunately, there were several months before the registration.
Before they arrived in the Dragon capital, Shen Xu would pass through many places and open his mind to a wider world.
When that happened, the double would naturally choose alchemy over weapon refining.
"Does young master Bai plan to enter the school of alchemy?" Shen Xu asked.
"That's my plan." Bai Guo nodded.
Hearing this, Shen Xu was relieved.
'It's a good thing I changed to weapon refining.' He thought and looked at Zhen Yuan.
For a moment, their eyes met, and a tacit understanding flowed between them.
"What about young Miss Qin?"
"I will enter the martial arts school and become Brother Weimin's junior sister." Qin Ran said and blushed a little.
'How pitiful.' Shen Xu thought.
"What about young master Zhen?" Xiao Weimin asked.
"My Ayuan plans to enter the school of talismans." Shen Xu said proudly.
"Young master Zhen is a talisman master? What's his level?"
"I haven't certified." Zhen Yuan answered before Shen Xu could say anything.
"I think young master Zhen should be sixteen?"
Zhen Yuan nodded and raised an eyebrow in question.
"At your age, your cultivation is only at the seventh level of the qi refining realm and won't be remarkable when you enter the capital. Young master Zhen should work harder."
"Are there powerful young masters in the capital?" Shen Xu asked curiously.
When they left Blue Deer village, Zhen Yuan suppressed his cultivation to the seventh level of the qi refining realm.
In this way, he appeared ordinary and didn't attract unnecessary attention.
"Young master Shen is also powerful." Xiao Weimin praised.
"When you enter the Academy, young master Shen will have the opportunity to break through to the foundation establishment realm. There aren't many foundation establishment realm cultivators below the age of twenty."
"Young master Bai is also ready to break through." Shen Xu noted.
In this back and forth, the afternoon passed.
When Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan left the teahouse, they felt tired.
However, Zhen Yuan got what he needed and couldn't help but look at Shen Xu in pity.
"What's wrong?" Shen Xu asked.
"Let's find an inn first."
"Good."
After that, the two found an inn and opened a room on the second floor.
When the door closed behind them, Shen Xu looked at Zhen Yuan eagerly.
However, Zhen Yuan didn't speak right away.
Instead, he activated an isolation formation disk before pulling Shen Xu to sit beside him.
"What did you find out? Is he my cousin or the child of a distant relative?"
"No." Zhen Yuan sighed.
"XiaoXu, we really may not be able to ignore him." Zhen Yuan said.
Hearing that, Shen Xu had a bad feeling.
He looked at Zhen Yuan and impatiently waited for the other to continue.
"Are you sure there was no mention of your biological family in the book?" Zhen Yuan asked.
