Huang Xiaolong's brows were knitted together. Nonetheless, he still stood up.
Li Lu beside him was full of worry.
"What were you laughing at?" Xiong Meiqi snapped in anger.
A faint smile curved up at the corner of Huang Xiaolong's lips, "I laughed because it was such a crappy battle skill yet everyone was cheering so much."
"What?!" anger rose to Xiong Meiqi's face, "You, a waste with a recommendation letter, isn't qualified to judge others' battle skill."
Huang Xiaolong sneered and retorted, "I have no qualification to judge? Then what right do you have to say I'm a waste, you female bear."
Female bear?
Everyone's face had an excited expression of anticipation seeing that Huang Xiaolong dared to call Xiong Meiqi a female bear in front of so many people.
"You!" Xiong Meiqi almost flared up with anger pointed at Huang Xiaolong, her voluptuous bosom was heaving up and down, "Fine, fine, you won't admit that you're a waste. Three days later, there is an assessment test for new students, if you can enter top ten then I will admit that you're not a useless waste!"
Top ten in the assessment test, this condition was a bit too much.
Despite that, Huang Xiaolong just laughed, "Do I need your acknowledgment whether I am useless or not? Okay, if I enter one of the top ten spots in the assessment test, I want you to growl three times like a bear, kneeling down in the Academy's square!"
Growled three times like a bear!
A sharp, dangerous glint burst deep within Xiong Meiqi's eyes, as if she wanted to swallow Huang Xiaolong alive; gritting her teeth, "What if you fail to enter one of the top ten places?"
"If I fail, I will voluntarily withdraw from school and also will kneel down in the Academy's square and bark like a dog three times!" Huang Xiaolong's cold voice sounded.
Xiong Meiqi gloomy face changed indecisively.
"How about it, don't you dare to?" Huang Xiaolong smirked.
"Okay!" Xiong Meiqi bit her lips and agreed, a ruthless light flashed across her eyes and disappeared quickly. She simply refused to believe a waste relying on a family's background could enter into one of the top ten in the assessment!
Seeing that Xiong Meiqi agreed through gritted teeth, he sneered inside and walked in the direction of the classroom door.
"Stand still, where are you going?" Xiong Meiqi yelled.
"Do I have to tell you where I go?" Huang Xiaolong paused when he heard that and stepped out of the classroom, but when he passed beside Jiang Teng, Huang Xiaolong muttered, "A self-righteous idiot!"
Jiang Teng's face stiffened, then turned red when he understood the meaning behind Huang Xiaolong's words. A waste that came in through recommendation actually scolded him, calling him an idiot publicly? A strong light flickered around his body, burning with rage as he looked at Huang Xiaolong's back.
Looking at the receding figure that ignored him, choking with anger that failed to vent.
Walking out from the classroom, Huang Xiaolong headed to the library. After all, it made no difference whether he sat in lectures or otherwise; in fact, it was better this way-- he could head to the library to find out the information that he wanted.
The library was far from Huang Xiaolong's classroom; entering the library, Huang Xiaolong took out his student plate for verification. After passing the check, he looked for the shelf containing books about martial spirits, randomly picking up a book titled 'Types of Martial Spirits' and started to read.
This book basically described the different types of martial spirits and some of their innate supernatural abilities.
Huang Xiaolong's memory had always been excellent, flipping past the pages speedily and moments later, he had finished reading and gained some understanding to this world's martial spirits.
After 'Types of Martial Spirits', Huang Xiaolong took a book called 'The Different Martial Spirits Grades' that evaluated the distinction between the grades of martial spirits and its progress.
"Ah, twin martial spirits!" when he reached the last page there were some notations about twin martial spirits that Huang Xiaolong read carefully.
"Twin martial spirits of the same kind can combine to become one or they could be separated as two individual entities!" This paragraph astonished Huang Xiaolong.
Twin martial spirits can become one?!
No wonder in the early days when his martial spirits had just awakened, it existed in a combined state! When he broke through to the Fourth Order, the twin dragon martial spirits separated into two independent entities.
Huang Xiaolong read the passage below and his eyes lit up; it actually described the method to combine and separate twin martial spirits of the same kind.
Moments later, Huang Xiaolong finished the book feeling elated, great! With this method, he could combine his martial spirits before releasing them in the future, so that no one can guess his secret.
He re-read the paragraph explaining the method, committing them into his brain and then moved towards the shelves placed with books ab about Beasts text.
Following the Beast language on the map he had gotten from the Silvermoon Forest, he checks them one by one. A while later, he deciphered the text written on the Beast Cultivator's treasure map.
"Demon Beast Holy Land, Thousand Tusker Mountain, Windless Tunnel!"
Huang Xiaolong frowned.
The location of the treasure was actually in the Beast race Holy Land?!
In this world, the Demon Beast race was bigger and more powerful than the normal Beastmen, and they abhorred humans; wanting to enter their Holy Land, this was too difficult! At least it was impossible for the current Huang Xiaolong.
After he had finished translating the words, it was already high noon. Huang Xiaolong left the library, and he exited the Academy instead of returning to the classroom. When he came out from the Academy, Fei Hou and the three guards immediately saw him and hurried up to him, "Young Master!"
Huang Xiaolong nodded, "Come on, let's go." he brought the four of them to Tianxuan Mansion.
On the way, Fei Hou couldn't resist, so he asked, "Young Master, the Academy hasn't ended, how come you're already out?"
The other four guards also looked at Huang Xiaolong with curiosity, having the same doubt in their hearts.
Huang Xiaolong explained, "From registration day, that female bear is my class teacher."
"What?! The female bear is Young Master's class teacher?!" Fei Hou was stupefied, then his voice turned sullen, asking, "Young Master, did she make things difficult for you today in the class?"
Huang Xiaolong chuckled, "Some ridicule is unavoidable." Then, Huang Xiaolong summarized what happened and his bet with Xiong Mei in the new students' assessment three days later.
When Fei Hou heard it couldn't resist laughing out loud-- he already could imagine three days later, Xiong Meiqi kneeling on the square and growling like a bear.
Soon, the six of them arrived in Tianxuan Mansion. Beastman Boli and the rest of the slaves saw Huang Xiaolong and Fei Hou so they quickly walked up to salute; telling them to stand up, Huang Xiaolong went to the main hall and asked Boli about Tianxuan Mansion's matters.
Beastman Boli answered them with respect.
In the last few days, the necessary furniture was arranged accordingly and the open yard was planted with flowers and plants; Beastman Boli even arranged for the old and moldy walls to be scrapped and painted with a new layer of paint.
Huang Xiaolong nodded, "You did well, you can leave."
Acknowledging respectfully, Beastman Boli turned and brought the servants with him out of the main hall.
After that, Huang Xiaolong left Tianxuan Mansion and returned to the Marshal Mansion. Then, he suddenly asked, "Fei Hou, do you want to breakthrough to the Xiantian realm?"
"Breakthrough to the Xiantian?" Fei Hou was stunned, stammering, "Sov- Sovereign, you have a way?"

Huang Xiaolong nodded, "I have a method that would help you to breakthrough to the Xiantian realm in five years!"
"Five, five years!" Fei Hou was dumbfounded.
He had advanced to peak late-Tenth Order not too long ago; following a reasonable time frame, it would take twenty to thirty years. Instead, now Sovereign actually said that he could let him breakthrough to the Xiantian realm in merely five years!
After Fei Hou had regained his sense, excitement was written all over his face. He had been following Sovereign for so long, he knew Sovereign would only say something he was confident in and he definitely wouldn't lie to him!
"Come, sit down," Huang Xiaolong said, "I'll teach you a cultivation technique."
"Cultivation technique?!" Fei Hou was surprised for a moment and proceeded to sit down.
Then, Huang Xiaolong taught Fei Hou an internal force cultivation technique called 'Liquid Thunder Arts'. Although the Liquid Thunder Arts weren't as good as the Body Metamorphose Scripture, but once it reached major completion it would be very powerful, comparable to this world's Heaven rank cultivation technique.
Fei Hou's martial spirits was the Silver River and his own cultivation technique coupled with 'Liquid Thunder Arts' will speed up his cultivation speed tremendously; to step into Xiantian realm in five years time was no problem.
"Subordinate bow down for Sovereign's grace!" After memorizing the 'Liquid Thunder Arts' Fei Hou knelt down in gratitude, vowing "Subordinate will always follow Sovereign!"
Huang Xiaolong waved his hand and helped Fei Hou up. He trusts Fei Hou's loyalty, otherwise, he wouldn't have taught Fei Hou 'Liquid Thunder Arts."
"When you return to the Marshal Mansion, tell Haotian to come over. I will also teach him a cultivation technique."
"This Subordinate thanks Sovereign on behalf of Senior Brother!" Delight showed on Fei Hou's face, and he knelt down to thank Huang Xiaolong again.
Telling Fei Hou to stand, he explained some of the technique's profoundness until Fei Hou started to grasp them. He then told Fei Hou about his plans to buy more slaves and train them to build his own power.
"Sovereign, please rest assure, Fei Hou will handle this task." Fei Hou said with confidence.
Huang Xiaolong nodded and allowed Fei Hou to leave.
After Fei Hou had left, Huang Xiaolong went to the yard to practice Tears of Asura for a while, then he continued with the skills he knew from his previous life: Ethereal Palm, Execute Demon Sword, Luohan Fist, etc.
And as for the Academy's afternoon class session, Huang Xiaolong didn't bother to attend.
The fact was, he enrolled into Cosmic Star Academy because the Dragon Flame Valley could temper his body and enhance his battle qi; and the allure of the prizes from the class competition, year competition and the Academy overall competition's rewards – the Grade Four, and Five Spirit Dans! And of course, the representative spot to participate in Duanren Empire's Imperial City Battle!
Attending classes to him was equivalent to wasting time; he just needs to show up and participate in the class and year competitions.
Afternoon-- it angered Xiong Meiqi even more when she noticed Huang Xiaolong was absent for afternoon class after he ignored her and left the classroom in the morning.
"That waste; three days later I will see how you bark like a dog in the square!" Xiong Meiqi laughed when she thought of this scene, but when she remembered Huang Xiaolong giving her the 'female bear' nickname her anger returned. Now, the nickname 'female bear' had spread around the Academy.
In the Tianxuan Mansion, when Huang Xiaolong was done with his training, Fei Hou arrived with Marshal Haotian; clearly, Fei Hou already told Haotian that Huang Xiaolong was going to teach him a cultivation technique because he looked excited when Huang Xiaolong saw him.
And Huang Xiaolong taught Marshal Haotian a cultivation technique called 'Five Yang Tactic'. Marshal Haotian used thirty years to break through from Xiantian First Order to Xiantian Second Order; with this, he could at least shorten the time by half to reach the Third Order.
Although a dozen years seemed very long, to breakthrough from Xiantian Second Order to Third Order in that much time was quite an amazing result; some people who have grade eleven martial spirits would need just as much time, if not more to advance to Xiantian Third Order.
It could be said, for Marshal Haotian who possessed a grade ten martial spirits, practicing the 'Five Yang Tactic' would speed up Martial Haotian's cultivation, bringing a similar result as if he possessed a grade eleven martial spirits.
Even though cultivating 'Five Yang Tactic' can speed up Martial Haotian's cultivation speed, it cannot change or improve his martial spirit's natural limitation. The chances for a top grade ten martial spirits to advance into Saint realm was slim.
Even so, Marshal Haotian was still grateful to Huang Xiaolong that tears and snot started to flow.
"Sovereign, rest assured that Haotian would live up to your expectation. I will work hard to cultivate and breakthrough to Third Order!" after committing the 'Five Yang Tactic' to memory, Marshal Haotian kowtowed in gratitude.
Huang Xiaolong nodded and helped Marshal Haotian up.
A while later, Marshal Haotian left Tianxuan Mansion and Huang Xiaolong requested him to send someone to bring the little violet monkey over to the new mansion.
Huang Xiaolong returned to his room and took out the cold jade bed after the Marshal left and called out the twin dragons, but it wasn't for practice. He followed the method he read today in the library and ran his battle qi slowly, trying to fuse the twin dragons like it first appeared.
As Huang Xiaolong ran his battle qi, one black and one blue dragon's body slowly coiled together as black and blue light flickered, fusing, and suddenly a glaring light glowed and the fusing was completed successfully into a double-headed dragon instead of a serpent.
When the twin dragon fused into one body, the oppressive aura belonging to a dragon increased-- even its body mass became bigger.
"But, the netherworld spiritual aura absorbing speed slowed a little in this state." Huang Xiaolong noticed this difference.
After the successful fusion, Huang Xiaolong practiced the Asura Tactics and continued with the Body Metamorphose Scripture; he had a feeling very soon his meridians could reach the Fourth Stage of Converting Power of the Stars and he could enter the true Fifth Stage.
Once the Fourth Stage meridians opened, Huang Xiaolong's internal force would increase a lot and at that time, even without battle qi, by solely relying on internal force, he could eliminate warriors of the Sixth Order and below.
Time flowed and passed and three days came and went.
These past three days, Huang Xiaolong stayed and practiced in Tianxuan Mansion and didn't attend any classes, causing Xiong Meiqi to grit her teeth in fury, but it was balanced out when thinking of the impossibility of a new waste student achieving a spot in the top ten in the assessment.
On this day, Huang Xiaolong came out from his room and stretched his limbs.
"Today's the new students' assessment!" Looking at the bright sky above, he really was looking forward to it.
Walking out from the yard, Fei Hou had been waiting respectfully for quite some time.
"Let's go, we're heading to the Academy!" Huang Xiaolong exclaimed.
"Yes, Sovereign!"
When Huang Xiaolong arrived at the Academy, Xiong Meiqi and the batch of new students were already assembled in the square and with Huang Xiaolong's arrival, everyone's eyes 'shua shua shua' towards him.
