Actually, I'm a Peerless Genius
"Oh? Brother Ye, you went out of your way to dress up?"
A man suddenly appeared in the mirror. He was tall and muscular, with dark skin and a square face. He was dressed casually in martial attire.
This was the second platoon leader Ye Zichen had poached from the Grizzly Bear Society, Li Hu.
He was an eighth-stage sky supreme and ranked in the top one hundred of the entire academy.
"Brother Ye, you have fans. Can you not dress a little more decently?"
At this moment, a pretty boy with red lips and white teeth appeared in the room. Don't be fooled by his feminine looks, but he used to be the platoon leader of the Grizzly Bear Society. He was now the leader of Anti-Upheaval's first platoon.
His name was Luo Zi, and he was also an eighth-stage sky supreme. His ranking was even higher than Li Hu's.
"Hey, are you jealous?"
Ye Zichen, who'd been tidying up his clothes, turned around. He was wearing a black robe with Anti-Upheaval's insignia on the right side of his chest.
The instant he turned around, Xue Mo blushed inexplicably and averted her gaze.
"Forget about me. What I pursue is the supreme Dao. I don't have time to care about those mediocre women." Luo Zi said arrogantly. "Brother Ye, I suggest that you don't waste too much energy in this area."
"What kind of person do you take me for? I'm dressed like this in the hopes that, on account of my attire, the Grizzly Bear Society's leader will go easy on me and not beat me up too badly." Ye Zichen shrugged.
"Pang Wan!"
Luo Zi and Li Hu's expressions were solemn. They knew exactly what Ye Zichen was trying to say.
The Grizzly Bear Society had suffered disastrous losses at the start of school, and it was all because of Ye Zichen, the excavator. Pang Wan would absolutely hate him to the core.
"That's why you invited us to the welcoming ceremony with you, Brother Ye."
"Of course, I poached you two and risked losing my head. If the two of you just took a nap and ate the resources I gave you, then left me to take the blame, what would I do? "Ye Zichen arched his brows.
"Since we're here, we're Anti-Upheaval's people. Even if you hadn't asked us, we would've gone with you, but …. "
Li Hu wanted to say something but hesitated, but Luo Zi helped him finish what he wanted to say.
"If Pang Wan really wants to attack you, we won't be able to stop him even if we wanted to."
Li Hu nodded and said, "Luo Zi is right. Pang Wan has been a half-step Celestial Being for a long time. I'm afraid that in the entire academy, only Sword Immortal Jiang Wei can fight him."
Ye Zichen understood all of this, but he pursed his lips into a smile. "That's why I called our society head over."
"What's wrong with me? I just became a sky supreme. I'm not even as strong as Luo Zi, Li Hu!"
"It's fine. In any case, you're the leader of Anti-Upheaval. For your sake, Pang Wan wouldn't dare do anything to me. Don't you think so?"
Ye Zichen's gaze seemed to carry a deeper meaning. Xue Mo didn't know what he was trying to say, but she didn't want to linger under his gaze for too long.
"Alright, the welcome ceremony is about to begin. Let's hurry over."
Skyspan Academy's welcoming ceremony wasn't anything special. Senior brothers and sisters would say a few meaningless things on stage, and the academy's teachers would say a few meaningless things. After that, they would be assigned classes, and after that, it was free time.
"It's over, just like that?"
Ye Zichen couldn't help but arch his brows as he watched the teachers leave.
"What else do you think? Tens of millions of new students will arrive at the start of the semester. Did you really think the academy would hold a welcoming ceremony for all of you?" Xue Mo rolled her eyes speechlessly. "In truth, the most important part of the welcoming ceremony is free time. Some geniuses want to gain the attention of the academy and society, and get the best resources. This is their best chance to show off."
As expected, before Xue Mo could even finish speaking, one of the new students leaped onto the stage, took out a crystal card, and showed the teachers on the stage the aptitude evaluation they'd received after arriving in the God Realm.
Everyone with talent at the elite level was assigned to the elite class, while geniuses were assigned to the gifted class.
Those below the elite level were admitted as ordinary students.
However, even after watching for a long while, Ye Zichen didn't see a single peerless genius.
"Hey, Society Head Xue, how do you classify aptitude?" asked Ye Zichen.
"Mediocre, ordinary, talented, elite, genius, saint, and peerless genius. Saint-level talent is guaranteed to reach the diviner level. As for peerless geniuses …. The God Realm hasn't seen one in tens of thousands of years. Rumor has it that all peerless geniuses become rulers." Xue Mo's eyes brimmed with yearning. Then she arched her brows. "Why are you asking all this? Hey, what level are you?"
"Screw off. Am I that bad? If I told you I was a genius, would you believe me?" Ye Zichen crossed his arms and snorted.
"You?" Xue Mo was filled with disbelief.
"I knew you wouldn't believe me. I'll tell you the truth: I'm actually a peerless genius!"
"Oh?"
Xue Mo didn't even look him in the eye. Instead, she simply said, "Oh," then glanced at Li Hu and Luo Zi.
"Let's go. Let's let this peerless genius enjoy his time here."
Li Hu and Luo Zi nodded, then left. Ye Zichen hurried after them.
"What are you doing? You don't believe me?"
"Brother Ye, stop dreaming. Wake up! We're all mortals. What's the point of thinking about all that nonsense? As long as we work hard, we'll even have a chance at becoming a diviner or a ruler. "
Li Hu patted him on the shoulder. Ye Zichen said in an aggrieved tone, "I really am.
It's just that I prefer to keep a low profile. I don't want the academy to know. "
"We know, we know. We're all peerless geniuses too. We don't want the academy to know," said Luo Zi, trying to hide the truth.
"Hey, you guys, just you wait …. I'll show you!"
Ye Zichen was getting a little impatient, so he pulled out his crystal card.
Xue Mo and the others, however, crossed their arms. Their expressions seemed to say ….
Keep pretending! Keep pretending!
"Society Head Xue, I can't believe we run into each other here."
At that moment, they heard a chuckle from behind them.
They turned around and saw Pang Zheng leading the Grizzly Bear Society's platoon leaders over. Ye Zichen stopped taking out his crystal card and stared intently at them.
"Li Hu, Luo Zi, not bad. You've just joined Anti-Upheaval, yet you're already chatting and laughing. It's really the society head's fault for raising two ingrates like you. "
The speaker was the first platoon leader of the Grizzly Bear Society, Chen Yinian.
Aside from Pang Zheng, he was Anti-Upheaval's strongest expert. He was a ninth-stage sky supreme, and the first platoon leader Ye Zichen had met. However, Chen Yinian had cursed him out and even kicked him twice.
"This was our own choice. Besides, we enjoyed the Grizzly Bear Society's resources and contributed to it," snorted Li Hu.
"You still have the nerve to say that …."
Chen Yinian's expression darkened, and he took a step forward.
