Chapter 57: Yun Bing: My Heart is Moved (Please Follow)
Dean Yun Xiliu arched her eyebrows, and a rare hint of surprise broke through her normally cold and stunning face.
It seemed that only her twin sister, Yun Bing, could actually make her show any emotion at all.
Yun Xi asked in surprise, "Yun Bing, are you serious? Who is this guy?"
Both of them had been single for a thousand years. Because of their templates, they couldn't make a contract with any man, and had never been close with a guy.
The sisters always kept their distance from men, so for Yun Bing to suddenly say she was interested in a guy—if the academy found out, jaws would drop and the place would erupt in gossip!
Yun Bing, sitting completely uncovered in the bath barrel, jumped at her words and complained,
"Sis, could you please stop barging in every time I'm taking a bath!"
"I've got privacy too, you know!"
Yun Xi shrugged, looking unconcerned. She even reached out and squeezed Yun Bing's arm.
"We're twins. Our bodies are identical. What you have, I have too. Looking at you is just like looking at myself, so how am I invading your privacy? I'm basically seeing myself here."
*Glamorous and sassy Yun Bing's face turned dark. Sure, what Yun Xi said was technically true, but why did she always feel kind of uncomfortable about it?*
"I don't care, just don't come find me when I'm bathing, okay!" Yun Bing insisted.
Yun Xi shot her a sidelong glance, still unfazed, and said, "What's wrong, you feel like you're at a loss because I saw you?"
"Fine then, I'll let you look at me too!"
With that, Yun Xi dragged over a transparent bath barrel filled with warm water next to her.
And then, right in front of glamorous Yun Bing's wide eyes, Yun Xi took off her bulky white robe and got into the tub.
Yun Bing couldn't help but blush. Watching the whole process, she mumbled, "They're not exactly the same… there's actually a little difference."
The two did look almost identical, but in terms of vibe, and certain details, there were still some subtle differences.
Dean Yun Xi said, "So, are you satisfied now?"
"Anyway, spill it—who's this guy? Vajra Venerable? White Tiger Venerable? Or Flood Dragon Venerable?"
Her little sister Yun Bing had a thing for a man now, and as her only family, she had to find out what was going on.
"Me," glamorous Yun Bing stammered, "None—none of them!"
Yun Xi's lips twitched, a big question mark forming on her usually calm and pretty face. "Not one of our Devil City Venerables? Then who? A Venerable from another base city?"
In Yun Xi's mind, proud Yun Bing, if she was interested in any guy, it had to be a Venerable.
But Yun Bing just shook her head, denying it, "None of them! He's not a Venerable!" Enjoy the story by reading on M|V|LE%MPYR.
Yun Xi grew even more shocked. Not even a Venerable? *What the hell? Yun Bing was always so proud, and now she was crushing on a guy who's not even a Venerable?*
Then Yun Xi's beautiful eyes widened in warning, and she snapped, "Then just say it already—who is he?"
Yun Bing's cheeks flushed pink, and she said a little sheepishly, "Just drop it, okay? It's not even that serious between us!"
"Besides, you know our situation. There's no way I can really be with him!"
*Yun Bing asked herself honestly, ever since Xiao Ye gave her that massage, she started to feel something different toward him.*
*She had never been in a relationship, didn't really know if what she felt was love, but ever since she got back from Xiao Ye's, his clear gaze and calm face as he gave her a massage just kept popping into her mind.*
*So when she said she was thinking about a man, it wasn't a lie!*
*The reason Yun Bing was taking a cold bath was just to cool down all this chaos inside her.*
Her ferocious energy was calming down, but her mind was still a mess.
*Hearing Yun Bing's confession, her sister and Dean Yun Xi felt it was just nuts. So it was Yun Bing with an unrequited crush!*
*Damn, Yun Bing was a Kunpeng Venerable, after all. Just which incredible guy had managed to hook her?*
*Yun Xi's curiosity was piqued. She said,
"If you're not going to tell me, I'll go find out for myself! I can dig up every single person you've been around lately!"
"I gotta see for myself who's got these moves."
Yun Bing's face darkened in protest, "Yun Xi! Since when did you become so gossipy? I thought you never cared about other people's business!"
"Besides, there's no way I can sign a contract with him, so what's the point in you looking for him?"
Yun Xi ignored her and kept scrubbing her own skin.
*Yun Bing glared at her, then started rubbing at the same spot on herself, a little too hard, until it hurt—like scrubbing herself was the same as scrubbing Yun Xi.*
Meanwhile—
Xiao Ye was walking with two beautiful girls toward the campus.
There were no classes today; formal lessons would start tomorrow.
But Nangong Siyao insisted on supervising the student council president and the council itself. She had to find something to nitpick and tattletale to Vajra Venerable.
Xiao Ye understood.
Back at the cafeteria, the student council bunch had been so arrogant and lawless that Nangong Siyao and Cheng Bingxi developed a super bad impression of Cheng Yi and the whole student council.
*They were both still simmering about the cafeteria incident.*
"They even kick everyone out just to eat their own lunch? That's so messed up!" Nangong Siyao squeaked angrily, shaking a tiny fist,
"I'm totally documenting everything the student council does and tattling to Vajra Venerable!"
Cheng Bingxi chimed in, "That's right!"
In both girls' minds, the only reason the council was so overbearing was because its president, Cheng Yi, set the tone for everyone else.
While chatting, the three of them had already made it to the wide walkway of Kunpeng Combat Academy.
The place was buzzing with people, most of them adults escorting teens to registration.
Xiao Ye activated the contractor template scan function in his system, checking out each pair of Contractors he saw.
[S-tier Giant Mantis Template, Realm: Tier Four][S-tier Beastmaster Talent, Realm: Tier Four]
[S-tier White Snake Giant Python Template, Realm: Late Tier Three][S-tier Beastmaster Talent, Realm: Late Tier Three]
[SS-tier Silver White Rhino Template, Realm: Tier Six][SS-tier Beastmaster Talent, Realm: Tier Six]
[S-tier Savage Tiger Template, Realm: Tier Three][S-tier Beastmaster Talent, Realm: Tier Three]
*After inspecting dozens of Contractor pairs passing by, Xiao Ye summed it up: ninety-nine percent of Contractor students were S-tier with realms at Tier Three, while the remaining one percent were SS-tier, with realms at Tier Six.*
*This batch of Kunpeng Combat Academy had enrolled three hundred Contractor pairs. Xiao Ye guessed only three or four were SS-tier, and as for SSS-tier, aside from himself and his group, there wasn't a single other SSS-template or SSS-beastmaster talent in sight.*
*Probably, in the whole country this year, SSS-templates and SSS-talent were as rare as unicorns—there really weren't many at all.*
Suddenly, a voice snapped nearby, full of anger and drawing the trio's attention.
Below the dorms, an upperclassman wearing a volunteer uniform grabbed the hand of a fresh-faced newbie and scowled,
"I helped you move your luggage and showed you where to go. Now that we're here, pay up! One Tier Two Crystal Core."
The young-faced new Contractor glared back and protested, "You offered to help without saying you wanted a crystal core. Now that we're here, you suddenly demand payment? How is that fair?"
The volunteer upperclassman's face darkened as he spat, "We're volunteers organized by the student council. If you don't hand over a crystal core, just wait for some trouble to find you!"
