When system cheat becomes rampant!

For some reason, Xiang Beifei thought he heard a different kind of emotion in her voice.

"She's a very special girl," he thought.

"I heard from the professor that something happened to your parents, so this is why you became a martial artist, right?" An Xiyu didn't look at Xiang Beifei but asked him this question, "Carry on your parents' will."

"What about you?" Xiang Beifei didn't answer directly but countered.

"I'm sitting here."

An Xiyu's answer was self-evident, concise and to the point.

She should have been a gentle girl, even her name was so refined, with a unique perception of musical instruments. If she wished, she could totally become a master of music performance, make money in the entertainment industry and become a star with ease.

But she chose the martial path without hesitation.

Her father had fallen in the defense of Jiuzhou. She was determined to continue the journey her father had not finished.

"Understood."

Xiang Beifei nodded. Such a girl was worthy of respect.

"Xiang Beifei!"

However, just at that moment, Professor Guo's voice suddenly rang out!

"Uh..."

Had he been caught talking during class?

Xiang Beifei braced himself and stood up.

Talking in Professor Guo's class was not a wise choice, just now those girls were severely reprimanded, so admitting his mistake seemed the better option.

But Professor Guo looked at Xiang Beifei with an expression full of admiration, and said, "You will be the class representative for my course!"

"Eh? Me?"

Xiang Beifei raised his head in surprise and looked at Professor Guo.

Professor Guo nodded slightly. His gaze softened a lot when he looked at Xiang Beifei, and he said, "I've heard about the entrance assessment. I appreciate anyone with the strength to kill a desolate beast. You were able to kill a Triangular Thunder Krait during the Qi-Controlling stage, which is very courageous and worth learning from by everyone. Only those with the strength to slay a desolate beast are qualified to lead others in defending the alliance's border and resist the beast tide!"

Professor Guo had also watched the video of Xiang Beifei killing the Triangular Thunder Krait. Achieving such a level during the Qi-Controlling stage boded well for his future. He was the sort of person Professor Guo admired.

Xiang Beifei hesitated. He didn't really want to be the class representative; it sounded like a hassle. But Professor Guo was so strict and an upright and honest person, directly refusing seemed rather impolite.

The whole class was looking at Xiang Beifei. Everyone was naturally very familiar with him; this so-called invincible N-level Body Cultivator during the Qi-Controlling stage being singled out by Professor Guo was unexpected for everyone.

They thought that even if Xiang Beifei was invincible at the Qi-Controlling stage, he was only an N-level Awakener, and his achievements could not possibly surpass those of a prodigy like Long Guocheng. Moreover, if a beast tide erupted, it wouldn't just involve a few Triangular Thunder Kraits; there would be various desolate beasts equivalent to the Meridian Opening stage, even the God Refining stage, running rampant!

How could an N-level Body Cultivator like him deal with desolate beasts of that caliber?

Yet, even though many harbored objections internally, nobody dared to voice it in front of Professor Guo. Having already rebuked the girls, who would dare to provoke his ire?

As if perceiving the doubts of others, Professor Guo continued, "You might think that Body Cultivators have limited accomplishments, but before you graduate, it's not too late to reach the level of Xiang Beifei! If you can't do it even with four years, then spend these four years learning properly from those who can kill desolate beasts!

Stop looking down on this and that. Do you have the right to look down upon others? Right now, if I throw you into the outer wilderness, would you survive? If you cannot survive, then keep your arrogance to yourself! Even if you are R-grade, S-grade, or SR-grade, ask yourself if you can defeat a Triangular Thunder Krait first before you talk about looking down on others!"

Professor Guo was well aware of the students' views on Xiang Beifei. The commotion about the N-level new student's enrollment was big, and there were many negative comments about Xiang Beifei.

But Professor Guo only cared whether a student had the ability to handle desolate beasts. At least before university graduation, Xiang Beifei was stronger than most of the students in the class!

And now, just less than a week since the beginning of the school year, Xiang Beifei had already surpassed the progress that other students would make in four years, in his eyes!

He was a straightforward person, calling black black and white white, and was not at all polite in his speech. On the university forum, when he saw those students disparaging Xiang Beifei every day, a talent who could kill a Triangular Thunder Krait before school had even started, he couldn't hold back any longer and decided to speak his mind bluntly today.

The entire class was scolded to the point of being unable to retort.

"Eh?"

Xiang Beifei was also quite surprised; it was his first time seeing Professor Guo as well, and he had not even fully recognized him yet. He had not expected Professor Guo to speak up for him.

The last times someone had stood up for him had been two elders, one was Ye Changfeng and the other was Elder Luo.

Professor Guo was the third.

Having someone defend him felt quite nice.

"What I need for this course are those capable of slaying desolate beasts, not students who are always trying to show off! Remember that!" Professor Guo's voice was resounding and forceful.

Long Guocheng felt very uncomfortable being spoken to by Professor Guo, clearly, the words were meant for him. Yet, he dared not retort against Professor Guo now; the old man was not to be trifled with.

"It's just a class representative for a defense course, I don't even care for it."

Long Guocheng spat out in his heart!

Although he thought this, he still felt very unwilling deep down.

"Just wait! Barring any accidents, I'll reach the Meridian Opening stage in a year. A year from now, we'll see the true colors! Then, I'll show you, an N-level Body Cultivator, what SR-level talent is!"

Long Guocheng also remembered the Sword Cultivator who had defeated him that night, "And you, if Idle Fish asks me to patrol the mountain, I will definitely defeat you too!"

Professor Guo ignored the expressions of the other students and said, "Xiang Beifei, stay after class. I'd like to discuss some matters regarding the class representative role with you. Please take a seat for now."

He waved his hand and then started the lesson.

Nobody dared to let their attention wander during Professor Guo's lesson. Under his authority, the classroom even became eerily quiet. After all, he was an SR-level professor, a height many students would never reach in their lifetime; they dared not speak against him.

——

After class, the other students left in twos and threes, and soon, only Professor Guo, Xiang Beifei, and An Xiyu, who had listened through the entire class from the back row, remained.

Xiang Beifei found it strange. He wanted to ask An Xiyu why she was there, but she just sat in her seat, quiet.

All he could do was walk toward the lectern.

"Professor Guo." Xiang Beifei greeted him politely.

Professor Guo looked at Xiang Beifei, his usually stern face showing a rare smile.

"I've heard of your deeds. It's a pity I wasn't there to witness them," he said appreciatively, "Heroes are not defined by talent. I don't care whether you are an N-level Awakener or not, all I care about is whether you can kill desolate beasts."

A man of action.

Xiang Beifei respected such people.

After thinking for a moment, Xiang Beifei asked, "Professor Guo, what exactly does the class representative have to take care of?"

"The class representative's duties are simple; you'll need to learn the functions of the various defense points of the Jiuzhou Alliance, learn about Formation, understand various system tools, learn to guard with talismans, and master tactical command. In the upcoming simulation courses, I'll arrange for you to face beast tide attacks from the past several thousand years, and you will need to adapt on the fly," explained Professor Guo as he introduced the responsibilities of the "Jiuzhou Alliance Defense Overview" course representative. "Your task is to command your classmates, leading the whole class in resisting those desolate beasts and holding the fort. Hence, before every practical class, you need to understand each student's abilities and utilize everyone's full potential effectively. Then, you'll find time to summarize the experiences from every simulated battle with me, and pass them on to every other student."
