The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

The way Little Seventh Prince dragged was domineering. It was hilarious to see him with a meat bun in one hand and dragging a grown-up man with the other hand.
Helian Wei Wei did not tell Tu Sufeng what happened during the test as it was inappropriate to say such a thing with so many people present. She just pondered on her thoughts.
"Miss Wei Wei and Little Seventh Prince are really close."
She did not realize when Yun Biluo walked over. Her voice was soft and gentle, she seemed calm but there was implicitly a sense of amus.e.m.e.nt which was hard to describe.
Helian Wei Wei turned her face to the side and did not speak. She moved her lips with her self-contained indolence and mockery.
Yun Biluo squinted her eyes and chuckled again. "It would be great for Miss Wei Wei to share your experience with me. I am the only person aware of His Highness' habits and I look forward to being closer to the Little Seventh Prince. However, I still do not have the essential knowledge. After all, children are different from grown-ups. Although they are brothers, it seems that Little Seventh Prince likes to eat more."
Helian Wei Wei never liked to talk with people who hid needles in words. Words from their mouths usually had two different meanings.
For example, what Yun Biluo was trying to tell her was actually how much she understood Baili Jia Jue.
These were dramas rooted out of jealousy.
She was disdain to fight for it but that did not mean that she would back off.
Helian Wei Wei lifted her thin lips and gave Yun Biluo a meaningful glance. A few indolent words came out, "I am his Third Aunt, of course, he is close to me. I presume that Miss Yun is unable to replicate what I have done, hence I do not have any experiences to share with you."
Yun Biluo was stunned.
Yuan Ming who was eavesdropping gloated. "I suppose she's going to have a tight feeling in her c.h.e.s.t for the whole day after what you've said. You're too mean, woman. You are purposely telling her that there's nothing for her to do when you clearly know that she's aiming for your title as the Third Princess Consort."
"I'm educated, I can't be always fighting or killing. Why don't I just talk nicely for problems that can be solved by talking?" Helian Wei Wei indolently fixed her collar and continued walking.
Watching her from behind, Yun Biluo clenched on her napkin and was stunned for a moment before she took her steps.
However...
Right at the next moment, a transparent stone wall appeared in front of Helian Wei Wei, separating Tu Sufeng and them into two completely different worlds.
Helian Wei Wei recalled what Tu Sufeng said to them when they entered the underground palace. "Your tests will come at any time."
Hehe, isn't this a little bit too sudden?
Are you sure this doesn't depend on the dean's mood?
Helian Wei Wei and Tu Sufeng looked at each other with the transparent stone wall between them.
Her first instinct was to turn around to carry the tiger-like, dignified little one.
Han Yu also noticed that something was wrong and he squinted his brown eyes.
There were two people who were panicking on the other side, fingers pointing to the rock faucets at the side, "Look!"
Chapter 312 - Breaking The Surface
The group looked over. Almost 100 faucets were flowing with water.
The flow of water was not too swift but it was enough to pressure them.
It seemed like they were not far from death once encountered with water in this kind of situation where all four sides were covered.
The water submerged their calves in no time.
In a situation with swift water flow, a human's breathing would be heavier than normal by two to three times when the water level reached the waist level or above.
Helian Wei Wei was most worried to encounter a situation like this when she was out for duty. It would not be so bad if she was alone. However, she was entrusted with Little Bald Head at that moment.
It was thinkable that this unexpected test would not be easy to pass.
Most importantly, none of them was prepared.
They thought that since they just finished the first test, they would have to wait for the next day for their second test.
No one expected that the second test would be coming in only half the time of burning a joss stick.
Helian Wei Wei knew that Tu Sufeng was testing their spontaneous response when their bodies were in extreme tiredness and their minds were relaxed.
However, she was not expecting that the opposite party would do this even though Little Seven was still there.
"Turn back!" Yun Biluo reacted immediately!
The volume of water from almost 100 faucets exceeded their estimation. The next moment, the water level in the tunnel reached their waists immediately!
Helian Wei Wei squinted her eyes and placed Little Seven to higher ground so that he would not be swept away by the current.
When Han Yu unraveled the net rope and came out again, the water had already flooded his neck.
Everyone was swimming back and forth crazily. When people were facing death, their reaction would be to sign up without any exceptions.
"Third Aunt." The little one did not know how to swim. With a tight frown, he struggled and asked Helian Wei Wei, "If there are fish in the water, I could still live a little longer."
Helian Wei Wei was speechless. What does this have anything to do with whether there are fish? She really did not know anything about being a foodie.
"You guys, cough, are you guys not leaving yet?" Han Yu choked on water bubbles while he was talking.
Helian Wei Wei did not talk any further because the water level had already reached her eyes. What they need to do at that moment was to maintain their stamina!
According to logical thinking, this is actually a test, which means there must be a way to get out of here.
Because by turning back...
Helian Wei Wei did not have the mood to ponder about it. She could feel her brain swell a little, a human's basic reaction underwater.
Progressively, they could not see anything in the tunnel except for water. However, there was one thing to be thankful for. The clarity of vision in the water was very clear and there was also a night illuminating pearl in the tunnel.
However, it would be a torment for human beings to open their eyes for a long period of time.
Little Seven did not know how to swim. He was clearly not suitable to be in the water for a long time.
Helian Wei Wei clenched her teeth and wanted to just turn back while dragging him.
However, the people who went to the exit swam back and knocked on the wall desperately while they were underwater as if they were looking for another exit!
Yun Biluo was in the best situation as she gathered all her martial Qi. The martial Qi lingered around her and gave her a short time to breathe.
The others started to learn from her to gather up their martial Qi when they saw what she did.
Those who are lacking in martial Qi would lose all their strength after using this method.
"Help!"
Someone could not take it anymore. The gleam on his body was starting to disappear while he was trying to reach up desperately.
Helian Wei Wei did not have the ability to take care of the others, she was only focused on dragging the child. She narrowed her eyes and fixed her gaze on the only different place.
That transparent stone wall.
There was no time to look for any mechanisms. Why not just attack?
"With my orders, I command the wind and clouds of the world!"
Helian Wei Wei stood upright in the water suddenly while holding Little Seven in her left hand and exerting force slowly with her right hand. An invisible current poured into her palm.
No one noticed aside from Yuan Ming. This woman once again broke his perception toward humans.
Along with the powerful water current, Helian Wei Wei hit the transparent sto
ne wall with her fist.
A cracking sound was heard.
Layers of cracks were formed on the stone wall.
Tu Sufeng looked at her with his usual gentle smile. In contrast, the mentor behind Tu Sufeng frowned heavily.
Bang!
Another hit!
The stone wall broke!
Water was flowing out.
Tu Sufeng took a big step backward.
As expected, there were mechanisms everywhere.
Helian Wei Wei's long black hair was wet. Her first reaction was not to question Tu Sufeng but to lean down and examine Little Seven's eyes.
She pressed his c.h.e.s.t twice. Her movement was swift and professional.
Even Tu Sufeng had a slightly surprised look.
As the little one spat out three mouthfuls of water, the others walked over one after another.
Yun Biluo was not in a panicked situation. However, the unexpected situation made her less stable than before.
The other two were feeling even worse. They were coughing constantly after they came out. Their eyes were red and they were lying on the ground without any strength left.
Even Han Yu was supporting himself with one leg. His good-looking face showed fatigues.
"Congratulations, all of you are still alive." Tu Sufeng paced up and said, "We have to face sudden dangers like these sometimes. When we go out to carry out orders, no one can guarantee your absolute safety. Thus, the first lesson of joining the Battle Spirit Forces is to learn to protect our own lives."
He looked at Yun Biluo and said, "Yun Biluo's reaction was very fast and she also thought of using martial Qi as a defense. That's a good idea but I do not suggest everyone to do so because using martial Qi to support is too strenuous. Compared to that, I would prefer to see you with good observation skills. There was a button that you can press to escape on your left hand. You turned back one after another but that was a waste of time. No one will give you a chance to retreat when you're facing your enemies."
Tu Sufeng fixed his gaze at Helian Wei Wei. "The reward this time is all yours."
There was no need for any explanation as Helian Wei Wei was the one who broke the stone wall.
Han Yu recovered and gathered his curiosity. "Hey woman, how did you notice that there is a problem with the stone wall?"
"By exclusion and reverse thinking, it was impossible to turn back. This was a test. If you were the person setting up this test, you would definitely block the way in. There are always mechanisms in the tunnel. The materials used to set up the mechanisms are often not so solid and they will certainly be easier to break than other areas." It was easy for Helian Wei Wei to explain but not everyone could react the same way as she did.
Tu Sufeng looked at her with admiration.
The mentor frowned even harder...
Chapter 313 - A Mysterious Man
How could a freshman who just enrolled know so much?
Moreover, was she not the legendary good-for-nothing in the Capital even though she won first place in the martial arts competition? Judging by her reaction, she was not like a new student who knew nothing.
Tu Sufeng was clearly aware of this. He looked over with both eyes and said in a gentle tone, "Don't worry. Little Seven is fine."
He knew what Helian Wei Wei was concerned about.
He continued explaining, "This child has been afraid of water since he was young. When Ah Jue knew about it, he went to the deep sea to retrieve a dragon pill for him."
Dragon pill was the inner pill of the dragon god. It could soar a human's martial Qi, and could also play a life-saving role in the underwater sometimes.
His internal organs would not be harmed as long as he was dragged out of water even if he drowned for a period of time. He would still be able to survive and be energetic after water was discharged from his body.
However, looking at Little Seven's spiritless appearance, he knew how much he hated being underwater. He spat two bubbles out and was very unhappy. "No fish!"
Well...
"How can there be fish in a tunnel?" Tu Sufeng was starting to have a headache again.
Little Seventh Prince curled his mouth and said to Helian Wei Wei, "Dragon pill is not as delicious as dragon meat."
"You had dragon meat before?" Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows. She bent down and fixed the child's wet black hair.
Little Seven hummed, "My Third Brother dragged a dragon back that time. I ate its flesh for many days. The meat was so delicious!"
Dragged a dragon back...
A painting-like scene appeared in front of the crowd. Wearing a long-sleeved robe, the Third Prince looked elegant and honorable as he dragged a dragon from the deep sea onto the land. Millions and thousands of splashes rose behind him and no one could do anything about it.
"His Highness, indeed." Yun Biluo smiled delicately and turned her head to meet Helian Wei Wei's gaze.
Helian Wei Wei did not give her any response. She fixed her black hair from her forehead to the back coolly and revealed her face which was similar to the size of a sunflower seed. She was thinking that, in fact, it was exactly in line with the Third Prince's style. Not only did he ended the dragon's lair, but he even dragged it out from the sea all the way home in an arrogant manner. Even if he had Fire Qilin as his mount, he still should not be so wild.
How could they go to the deep sea in the future? They would definitely be chopped to death within minutes...
Han Yu's first reaction when he heard about Baili Jia Jue was to sneer.
Tu Sufeng looked at the burning sandalwood in his hand. "The sky is getting bright soon. You can really go back to sleep this time. Of course, the test is not over yet. I look forward to your next performance."
Upon hearing that, they finally let out a sigh of relief and dragged their exhausted bodies toward their respective courtyards.
"Dean." Helian Wei Wei only called out to Tu Sufeng when the others left.
Tu Sufeng turned around with a smile on his face. "What is it? Are you still having any doubts?"
Helian Wei Wei took the little child's hand and walked over. "I wanted to ask you about the first test. Was everyone challenged by Whirlwind Beasts too?"
"Yes." Tu Sufeng's tone was mild, "The tests start easy and get more difficult eventually so that you will gradually adapt to it."
Helian Wei Wei narrowed her eyes. "But what Little Seven and I encountered was not a Whirlwind Beast but a magical beast."
"A magical beast?!" Tu Sufeng frowned hard. "We wouldn't put this kind of beast on the test, let alone the elementary level, even later in the college, we would never let you face this kind of uncontrollable beast." There must be something wrong somewhere!
Helian Wei Wei laughed, "I don't think that this kind of beast should be in the academy, especially in a Battle Spirit Forces test."
Her meaning was clear. Of course, Tu Sufeng who was intelligent could understand what she meant. His sight darkened. "I will investigate this matter carefully. There should not be any problems within the internals of the Battle Spirit Forces."
When the darkness of the night faded and the sun rose from the East, there would always be some confusion.
Among the uneven shrubs.
A Demon-Transforming Beast trembled with fear and leaned on a man's leg. "Master."
"What's wrong, did the mission fail?" The man looked at it and placed the pieces in his hand on the chessboard.
"Indeed, there is nothing that Master doesn't know." The Demon-Transforming Beast flattered and said carefully, "That woman was kinda weird but I cannot tell why. Nevertheless, she killed my brother. I will never let her off easily! When the time comes…"
Swish!
Before the Demon-Transforming Beast finished his words, he was frightened by a chess piece that flew over. He froze in his place, "Mas, master…"
"Did I say anything about hurting her?" The man stood up, his dark eyes were illuminated gradually.
The Demon-Transforming Beast
saw the man staring at itself coldly like a poisonous cobra. The beast did not say another word.
The Demon-Transforming Beast was so scared, its face became pale. It did not dare to move its black claws.
Only the man's jewel-like bright eyes were visible in the endless dark night. "Find out all Demon-Transforming Beasts. Since one or two of them did not affect her, a group would certainly be effective. The White Academy will soon let the students learn to summon their own sacred beasts. We can attack then."
"How about Miss Yun?" The beast stretched out its claws.
The man silently placed a chess piece at a place that it was supposed to be. "She has things that she needs to do. Also, tell her that it's fine if she wants to get Baili Jia Jue. Just don't ruin my plan."
"Yes." The beast's dark shadow fell to the ground. "However, if the majority of us leave the Forest of Fantasy, the people from the Battles Spirit Forces will find out the problem soon enough. The royal family will then hunt us down and kill us."
The man placed the defeated chess pieces aside. "The royal family side will have the four influential families to deal with. What are you afraid of?"
"But the Third Prince of the royal family has Fire Qilin following him around. All of us will be doomed if it appears. Also..." The beast seemed to be thinking of something, it was palpitating, "Master, did you forget that we were defeated by that exact person when you were a child, so..."
Thud.
He placed the black chess piece.
The man raised his head. Only the silhouette of his chin was visible under the bright moonlight. "Do not forget, I was not awakened at that time. Also, Yun Biluo could hold him down."
Right! The Demon-Transforming Beast's eyes lit up as its shadow moved. "Master, you're right. I was too careful. I'm going to summon them over right now!"
The man nodded. Like an invisible hand, the silent darkness swallowed everything quietly...
Chapter 314 - Was She Merely A Prey?
The water was receding in the secret tunnel.
