章 221: Chapter 221: Living with Hundreds of Beautiful Misses
...
Skywater Academy.
On this day, the weather was beautiful, with sunshine sprinkling across the surface of Heavenly Star Lake. A gentle breeze stirred the waves, creating shimmering ripples.
In a small pavilion by the lake, several beautiful female students were chatting. From time to time, their sweet and pleasant laughter could be heard, like the lovely cry of a yellow oriole, charming and soothing.
Boom!
A loud noise startled the chatting female students, and their gazes turned towards the direction of the sound.
"That's from the back mountain. What happened there?" one of the female students wondered.
"I heard someone is cultivating there. Could this sound be caused by their cultivation?" another girl looked uncertain.
"You're right. Someone is indeed cultivating there. Let me tell you, according to reliable information, it's actually a man!"
"What? A man?!"
The girls were shocked. They couldn't believe that there would be a man living in Skywater Academy. It was truly surprising.
"Yes, and I heard that person has a special relationship with Senior Bing'er."
"You mean they're dating?!"
"It should be, otherwise how could he be cultivating here?"
"Moreover, that person's strength is incredibly powerful. A month ago, during the exchange meeting between our academy and the Four Great Academies, he defeated the chief of Thunderclap Academy with just a few sword strikes. You know, the chief of Thunderclap Academy is at the Spirit Ancestor level, even more powerful than Senior Bing'er. But that man, he's at the Spirit Elder level, and yet he defeated Thunderclap Academy's chief who was one step higher. It astonished everyone present!" the girl finished, her eyes shining with stars, looking like a devoted fan.
"That's amazing! Did you see it?" the other girls asked enviously.
"Oh, no. My sister told me. She was there at the time."
"Well, I'm not lying! Just think about it, if that person wasn't strong, how could he be worthy of Senior Bing'er?"
"You're right." The other girls nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, Shui Bing'er walked past with a serious expression on her face, but the girls chatting didn't notice her presence.
"The rumors about me and that guy are spreading more and more in the academy. Damn it! I shouldn't have allowed him to stay here in the first place." Shui Bing'er's face showed some regret, and her cheeks flushed, whether out of anger or shyness, it was hard to tell.
What am I thinking!
Shui Bing'er shook her head, and slapped her cheeks with her palm to stop her wandering thoughts.
"What is he doing? Causing such a commotion. Is he trying to cause trouble in the academy?" Shui Bing'er felt annoyed after hearing the booming sound earlier.
Shui Bing'er couldn't understand why he couldn't just practice quietly. There were occasional booming sounds, as if he were playing with bombs.
Without hesitation, Shui Bing'er lightly sprinted towards the direction of the back mountain.
As she got closer, faint sounds of rumbling became clearer. It was the sound of a waterfall.
Skywater Academy was built at the foot of a large mountain, and there happened to be a waterfall hundreds of meters high, cascading into a corner of Heavenly Star Lake.
At the spot where the waterfall fell, there was a large circular pool with a diameter of one hundred meters. It had an opening on one side, and the flow of water from the waterfall was directed towards Heavenly Star Lake in the academy.
Surrounded by towering trees, it resembled a half-primitive forest, although there were no soul beasts here that posed a threat to soul masters, only some beasts that couldn't threaten them.
Shui Bing'er pushed aside the foliage blocking her view and saw the scene before her.
Zeng Yi stood in the middle of the pool with his feet on the water's surface, as if stepping on solid ground. He tilted his head back, gazing up at the waterfall that was crashing down from above. The water struck the surface with a thunderous roar, splashing water droplets in all directions, yet none of them touched Zeng Yi.
Zeng Yi took a step forward, bent his back, gripped his sword, and with a fierce glint in his eyes, took a deep breath.
Slash!
The sword blade instantly unsheathed from its scabbard, and Zeng Yi swung his sword towards the waterfall. A visible sword Qi shot out at incredible speed and struck the waterfall.
Boom!
The sword Qi passed through the waterfall and struck the wall behind the water flow. A thunderous noise overpowered the sound of the waterfall.
But what happened next stunned Shui Bing'er.
The waterfall was cut in half by Zeng Yi's sword. The water curtain falling from the mountain was completely blocked at the spot where Zeng Yi's sword Qi struck, as if something was obstructing it.
It looked as if Zeng Yi had cut the waterfall with a single sword strike.
After a second, the invisible obstruction disappeared, and the water began to rush down, crashing onto the surface with a thunderous roar.
Exhaling a long breath, Zeng Yi sheathed his sword.
"Just one second."
Noticing someone at the bank who was watching him, Zeng Yi leapt into the air, and his figure flickered as he stepped on the water's surface. In a few seconds, he appeared on the shore.
"Shui Bing'er? Long time no see." Zeng Yi looked at her, and her eyes were filled with amazement. "Are you a monster?"
This guy actually cut the waterfall with his own strength. It's insane and terrifying.
Zeng Yi, who had been practicing at the back mountain of Skywater Academy for over a month, had also sparred with Shui Bing'er before, so she naturally knew about his three soul skills.
"That's too disrespectful to say." Zeng Yi glanced at her with a faint disdain.
"By the way, about my matter?"
"I've already sent your letter to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect." Shui Bing'er replied.
"You didn't mention that I'm here, did you?"
"No, I had someone deliver it. But I wonder, since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is one of the top three sects, and the cultivation environment there is much better than here, why don't you go back and cultivate?" Shui Bing'er found it strange.
"For some reasons, I don't want to return to the sect." Zeng Yi replied.
Since the last exchange meeting between the Five Great Academies, when Zeng Yi defeated Yu Tianxin from Thunderclap Academy, he had been thinking of increasing his soul power rank. Otherwise, all these geniuses would reach the Spirit Ancestor level, while he remained at the Spirit Elder level. Although his combat power was no weaker than theirs, it didn't feel good to be left behind.
Moreover, there was still a year left until the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament. At his current rate of progress, he would still be at the Spirit Elder level, while others would have become Soul Masters. The kids from Shrek Academy, who were once his students, had already become Soul Elder. If they caught up to him, it would be embarrassing.
Back then, he shamelessly claimed to have a complete innate soul power!
Therefore, Zeng Yi decided to put aside his playful nature and focus on cultivating for a while. He aimed to raise his soul power to level 40 and then make a trip to the Star Dou Forest. He intended to become a participant in the tournament before heading to Heaven Dou City.
As for the place to cultivate, Zeng Yi believed that Skywater Academy was very suitable. It had abundant spiritual energy amidst its gloomy atmosphere. Besides, he had a good relationship with Shui Bing'er, so he thought it could be flexible. However, Shui Bing'er said she couldn't make the decision and needed to consult the academy principal. After all, it was unprecedented to have a man living in an all-female academy, and it could affect the academy's reputation.
But to his surprise, when the academy principal of Skywater Academy learned that Zeng Yi was a disciple of Sword Douluo, she became unusually excited. Without a second thought, she brutally beat Zeng Yi. This old woman was a Spirit Emperor-level expert, and Zeng Yi couldn't resist at all. After venting her anger, the academy principal's mood improved significantly and handed Zeng Yi over to Shui Bing'er. She also agreed to Zeng Yi's practice at Skywater Academy, but she prohibited him from setting foot beyond the back mountain or disturbing the cultivation of other female students, otherwise, she would break his legs.
Through this incident, Zeng Yi understood that this old woman must have some history with his opportunistic Master, otherwise, why would she beat him?
Moreover, what's the use of beating me? Go find that old man! He's in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect! Zeng Yi felt quite dissatisfied.
That old man, ugh, what a scum!
And so, Zeng Yi began a peaceful life in Skywater Academy.
No, it was a quiet cultivation life.
"When will you leave here? After all, our academy is an all-female academy, and having a guy like you here will tarnish our reputation." Shui Bing'er said coldly. Zeng Yi's presence had already seriously impacted her reputation. There were rumors everywhere in the academy that she and Zeng Yi were in a romantic relationship, which made her feel extremely embarrassed.
This made Zeng Yi pause for a moment. How could they kick him out when everything was fine? "I'm a righteous gentleman. I haven't harassed any of the girls in your academy! I haven't even set foot outside the back mountain." Zeng Yi solemnly promised. If he left, where could he find a good cultivation environment? Was he supposed to go to the Spirit Beast Forest?
"Also, take care of your sister. She's constantly running to me every three days, and it's affecting my cultivation. Go tell her." Zeng Yi added, leaving Shui Bing'er speechless.
His sister really is troublesome.
"When I reach level 40 in my cultivation, I will leave. At most, it will take three months. During this time, you can come find me to discuss any cultivation questions you have. I am more than willing to help you." Zeng Yi said.
"Really?"
Hearing this, Shui Bing'er's eyes lit up. Although she had surpassed the Spirit Ancestor level now, she still wasn't Zeng Yi's match. Some of his ingenious techniques and cultivation methods were worth learning.
"Of course." Zeng Yi assured her.
He knew that in the upcoming Tournament, Skywater Academy would face Shrek Academy. He had no intention of joining Shrek's team, or else the tournament would be too boring. While Skywater Academy had decent strength, there were seven geniuses in Shrek Academy like Shui Bing'er, while Skywater Academy only had her. It was difficult to compete alone.
By teaching Shui Bing'er a bit, he could also cause some trouble for Tang San and his friends in the future. It felt quite satisfying.
Thinking about it, Zeng Yi grinned.

[[Notes: So ya, we are skipping the whole Five academies exchange meeting. It would just be a filler and we don't want that do we. ]]
