"It's like this. I've just started learning spiritual power, and there are many things that I don't understand very well. So … can you please give me some pointers? My Father has not been able to find a suitable study partner for me and I heard my Royal Brother mention you that day. You and I are of a similar age and if you don't mind, would you be willing to be my study partner? "Lei Fan looked at Jun Xie sincerely and he immediately added:
"Don't worry. Although you're just a study partner, your treatment won't be worse than anyone else's."
The Princes' study companions had always been chosen from among the disciples of the officials and it was impossible for ordinary youths to get such an opportunity. Although they were just study companions, but once they entered the Imperial Family, they would be able to enjoy glory and riches, with a bright future ahead of them. Although the Fourth Prince was not the heir to the throne, but the Yan Country's Emperor's indulgence towards him had already surpassed that of the Crown Prince, Lei Chen. To be able to become Lei Fan's study companion was an opportunity that many would fight to the death for.
Lei Fan's voice was not soft and the moment he said those words, all the youths around him gasped in shock!
Being the Prince's study companion, in essence, was to groom the Prince's trusted aide. Once the Prince came of age and was conferred the title of Prince, the status of the study companion would naturally rise along with the tide, and obtaining a good official position in the Fire Country, would be a piece of cake.
Moreover, Lei Fan was highly favoured and becoming his study partner was no different from becoming the Crown Prince!
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
All the youths looked at Jun Xie enviously, their hearts itching like a cat was scratching them, wishing they could take Jun Xie's place and accept the task!
On the surface, Lei Fan was looking at Jun Xie highly expectantly, but in his heart, he was secretly laughing. He did not think in the slightest that Jun Xie would reject his invitation. No matter how close Jun Xie was to the Crown Prince, Lei Chen, that was just a private relationship. As long as Jun Xie agreed to become his study partner, that would mean that he had gained the recognition of the Fire Country's Emperor. Between the Emperor and the Crown Prince, everyone would know which one held more power.
Jun Wu Xie did not immediately respond to Lei Fan's words but just continued to stare thoughtfully at Lei Fan, her cold eyes making it hard for people to decipher what she was thinking.
"What do you think? I am here to invite you with all sincerity. "Lei Fan said.
Jun Wu Xie suddenly retracted her gaze and a shout suddenly rang out from within the battle arena.
"Fourth Prince, I'm going up." Without giving Lei Fan any sort of reply, Jun Wu Xie merely said one sentence calmly before she walked towards the battle stage.
Highly anticipating for Jun Xie to agree, Lei Fan was suddenly taken aback. He really had not thought that the situation would turn out like this.
Not only did she not shed tears of gratitude, but … she completely ignored his invitation?
How was this possible?
The smile on Lei Fan's face suddenly froze, and a dark glint flashed in his good looking eyes.
Because of the Emperor's indulgence towards him, as long as he opened his mouth, there was nothing he could not get. Although Jun Xie had not outright rejected his invitation, but her blatant disregard was already a form of rejection.
"You have guts." Lei Fan cursed under his breath through gritted teeth. Having been humiliated in front of everyone by Jun Xie, no matter how good Lei Fan was at pretending, the expression on his face had turned rather ugly.
The gazes of all the youths around him, made Lei Fan's heart burn with rage.
He had never thought that Jun Xie would not give him any face at all.
Seeing that Jun Xie had stepped onto the stage, Lei Fan could no longer sit still. He suddenly stood up and left the first battle district without even turning his head back. This was the first time he had ever been rejected in his entire life and that feeling was not one he would like to experience.
