Chapter 61
Sheng Xiao could tell that Yu Huang was disappointed. He comforted her. “You’re not bad. Be patient and build trust with your beast form. When you go to Divine Realm Academy, you can find a suitable cultivation technique for you. You can become stronger too.”
Yu Huang suddenly smiled. She tilted her head and asked Sheng Xiao, “Master Sheng, are you that confident that I can enter Divine Realm Academy?”
Sheng Xiao looked at her meaningfully and did something out of character. He raised his right hand and patted Yu Huang’s head lovingly. He sighed. “You could condense a Psychic Pearl in half a month. Your talent is outstanding even in the Divine Realm Academy, where geniuses are everywhere.”
Yu Huang glanced at the hand above her head and slapped it away mercilessly, but she did not use much strength. “Speak properly and don’t touch me.”
Sheng Xiao then realized that he had crossed the line. He quickly retracted his hand and looked embarrassed.
Yu Huang did not take it to heart. She told Sheng Xiao solemnly, “I’m not young. I’m not young anywhere. Don’t treat me like a child.” She had lived for more than two hundred years and was an old monster. She was not young anymore, be it in terms of age or mentality.
Sheng Xiao had obviously misunderstood her. He glanced at Yu Huang’s body covertly. When he saw her voluptuous figure, he realized that he should not treat her like a child.
She was younger than him, but she was indeed an adult.
Yu Huang was not angry when she realized that Sheng Xiao was peeping at her. Her figure was for show in the first place. She was happy that someone admired her figure.
Yu Huang got off the bed and sat on the sofa. She took out the hot pot from the storage device. As she took it out, she asked Sheng Xiao, “I have a hot pot. Do you want to eat?”
Sheng Xiao was indeed hungry. He asked Yu Huang, “What dishes are there?”
“There’s only spicy beef and shredded fish. What do you want to eat?”
“Spicy beef.”
Yu Huang nodded. She skillfully tore open two pots and added water to them. Then, she put them aside. She looked up and asked Sheng Xiao, “Can you really enter Divine Realm Academy if I rank top ten in the country?”
Sheng Xiao shook his head and told her, “You’re mistaken. Divine Realm Academy only accepts ten students worldwide every year, not the entire country.”
There was a huge gap between the top ten scorers worldwide and the top ten scorers nationwide.
Sheng Xiao asked her again, “Are you planning to enter Divine Realm Academy by taking the college entrance examination?”
Yu Huang nodded and said, “Yes, didn’t Dean Lin of the Purifying Spirit Academy’s branch in the Prosperous Capital pass the college entrance examination to enter the Divine Realm Academy back then?”
Sheng Xiao reminded Yu Huang, “He was the top scorer in the country during that year. You…” Sheng Xiao did not know about Yu Huang’s grades. He asked,” What did you get for the final exam last time? “
Yu Huang touched her nose sheepishly and replied in a low voice, “425.” There were seven subjects, and each subject had a total of 100 points. 60 points would be considered a pass. She barely passed.
Sheng Xiao’s expression changed when he heard the score. “I have to remind you that the top scorer last year had a total of 698 points.”
Yu Huang lowered her head and fiddled with her hand, as if she did not hear Sheng Xiao’s words. It was obvious that she was unhappy.
Sheng Xiao knew that Yu Huang had suffered a blow. He comforted her again. “As far as I know, there has never been a situation like yours on the Holy Spirit Continent. You are a Purifying Spirit Master and a Beast Tamer. Your situation is very special. If you are willing, I can write a letter of recommendation for you. Take my letter and go to the Divine Realm Academy for an interview. You should be able to enter the academy directly.”
Sheng Xiao had never written a letter of recommendation for anyone else. His letter of recommendation would be very valuable. With his letter of recommendation and her status as a Purifying Spirit Master and a Beast Tamer, Divine Realm Academy would definitely open its doors to her.
It was impossible for Yu Huang not to be moved by Sheng Xiao’s suggestion. However, she was only moved for a few seconds before she calmed down. She shook her head and said, “No need. I still want to become the top scorer and bring glory to the school.”
Sheng Xiao felt choked.
With her grades, she wanted to become the top scorer and bring glory to the school?
Of course, Sheng Xiao only dared to think about it and did not dare to say it out loud.
Yu Huang knew that what she said was a joke to Sheng Xiao. However, she had something to do and was not in a hurry to go to Divine Realm Academy.
Furthermore, there was still a promise between her and Xuanyuan Jing. Even though Xuanyuan Jing was a jerk, his cultivation and talent were not bad. This year, Xuanyuan Jing was also becoming stronger. Yu Huang had to raise her strength as soon as possible in this year in order to have the confidence to defeat Xuanyuan Jing.
However, Yu Huang did not want to tell Sheng Xiao those words. Their relationship was not good enough for them to talk about this. “Don’t look down on me. Even I’m afraid of myself when I’m serious.”
Sheng Xiao wanted to laugh when he heard that. However, he was afraid that Yu Huang would be angry. He could only hold it in.
He gave Yu Huang a deep look before saying, “I respect your choice. I also look forward to seeing you on the Divine Realm Academy’s freshman registration form a year later.”
Yu Huang smiled. The way the scars on her face crunched together was a little ugly, but they also made her look earnest.
Sheng Xiao looked at the scar on Yu Huang’s face and asked suddenly, “Which class are you in at Yong Hui High School? I want to send you something when we get back.”
“Class 7.”
“Okay.”
Yu Huang did not ask what Sheng Xiao wanted to give her. She was looking forward to it. When she smelled the food, Yu Huang opened the lid of the hot pot. When she saw that the food was ready, she passed the spicy beef to Sheng Xiao.
“Master Sheng, eat.” After saying that, Yu Huang realized that Sheng Xiao was no longer a Master but a Supreme Master.
It was no longer appropriate to call him Master Sheng.
Yu Huang asked Sheng Xiao, “You’re Supreme Master Sheng now. Should I call you Supreme Master Sheng now?” She repeated Supreme Master Sheng in her mind. She found it awkward to say. It didn’t sound as pleasant as Master Sheng either.
Sheng Xiao felt that Supreme Master Sheng did not sound as pleasant. He thought for a while and said, “You can call me by my name.”
“That’s disrespectful.” Master Sheng was a person with a high status in the Holy Spirit Continent. It was disrespectful to call him by his name. Yu Huang stared at Sheng Xiao’s gentlemanly eating manner and asked, “What does everyone call you?”
Sheng Xiao replied without thinking, “Senior Sheng.” But Yu Huang was not a student of Divine Realm Academy. It was inappropriate to call him Senior Sheng.
Yu Huang suddenly called out, “Brother Xiao.”
Sheng Xiao’s chopsticks trembled and the beef fell on the rice. He looked up at Yu Huang and saw that she was eating. He then replied coldly, “Yes.”
After eating, Yu Huang took a shower and changed into a set of clean clothes. Then, she went to check out with Sheng Xiao. They went to the airport and went back home.
When they arrived at the Prosperous Capital’s International Airport, Yu Huang bid farewell to Sheng Xiao. When they parted, Sheng Xiao said, “There’s something I’ll send you in a few days. Be on the lookout for it.”
“Okay..”
