Douluo: Qian Daoliu has had a crush on me for a long time

Chapter 10 Nobles and Commoners

Soon, Ye Jingqiu understood what Hu Liena meant.

Ye Jingqiu and Hu Liena separated when they were still some distance away from the teaching building.

Ye Jingqiu slowly walked into the teaching building only after he could no longer see Hu Liena.

As soon as she entered, she saw Hu Liena surrounded by three girls. The leading girl looked at Hu Liena arrogantly and said, "You should know what to do in the competition this afternoon."

Hu Liena looked at the leading girl in disbelief and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't make me explain things too clearly. You can't afford the consequences." The girl snorted coldly and looked Hu Liena up and down. "I'm telling you this to give you face. You mustn't be shameless!"

Hu Liena stared at the girl, unmoved. "This afternoon's competition is crucial to whether I can successfully reach the Black Iron level in the future. It's very important to me."

The girl sneered, "You are an orphan who was rescued by the Spirit Hall. The opportunity to study in the Spirit Hall in this life is already a great blessing to you, so I advise you not to have any inappropriate thoughts."

"You must always remember your identity. You are just a beggar. Even if you are lucky enough to become a spirit master, the lowly blood of a commoner still flows in your bones."

"I'm just giving you a chance now. Don't make things too difficult for me." The girl threatened in a low voice.

When the girl started to speak, Ye Jingqiu's brows were tightly furrowed, as if a fly could be pinched to death between his eyebrows.

Everything Hu Liena was experiencing at this time was what Ye Jingqiu had experienced before. I think Hu Liena asked her to pretend not to know her in class because she was afraid that she would suffer what she was experiencing now.

But Ye Jingqiu was not afraid.

Ye Jingqiu walked forward quickly and stood in front of Hu Liena before the four people could react, facing the three girls like a protector.

The leading girl was stunned and looked Ye Jingqiu up and down. Finally, her eyes fell on Ye Jingqiu's shoes.

Although the red embroidered shoes are exquisite, only common people would wear them.

The girl scoffed and said nonchalantly, "I was wondering why the poor smell was so strong today. It turns out there's another one here."

Hu Liena grabbed Ye Jingqiu's hand from behind and gently pulled it with a worried look on her face.

Ye Jingqiu remained unmoved, and said calmly, "She has already rejected you. Don't you understand?"

The girl narrowed her eyes and suddenly smiled after a while, "Poor guy, you should know the consequences of offending me."

"What about you? You're hinting at her letting us win. If you look down on us so much, why don't you rely on your own abilities to win? Or do you know deep down that you're no match for Hu Liena?"

"You...you..." The girl's face turned red with anger. She pointed at Ye Jingqiu for a long time without saying a word.

Finally, the girl glared at the two of them fiercely and said, "Hu Liena doesn't know the consequences of angering me, but I think you should know it in your heart."

After saying this, the girl turned and left. The two followers behind her also looked at Ye Jingqiu inexplicably. She could clearly see that the two of them were full of gloating.

Ye Jingqiu's heart skipped a beat and she narrowed her eyes, thinking that these people would never let it go, but she did not regret it.

Hu Liena looked at Ye Jingqiu, a surge of warmth welling up in her heart. "You shouldn't be interfering in this matter. If you do, they won't let you go." Ye Jingqiu looked at Hu Liena in confusion and asked, "I clearly remember one of the school rules prohibiting bullying classmates. What's wrong with them? Is there no one to intervene?"

At this moment, Xie Yue's voice rang out from behind the two of them, "The so-called school rules govern us ordinary people, but as they are at the top of the pyramid, these rules naturally can't stop them."

Ye Jingqiu frowned slightly, "How could this happen? This isn't fair."

Xie Yue sighed deeply and said, "There is no absolute fairness in this world. Although the Spirit Hall wants to establish relative fairness, the nobles hold real power in the Douluo Continent, and fairness is not so easy to obtain."

"If it weren't for the Spirit Hall awakening our spirits, perhaps we would never have the chance to become a spirit master in this lifetime."

Ye Jingqiu looked at Xie Yue in confusion.

Xie Yue said, "Every year, the Spirit Hall sends people to remote villages and regions to help children of appropriate age awaken their spirits. These children are from ordinary families. Becoming a spirit master used to be an opportunity reserved for nobles and disciples of sects, but now the Spirit Hall offers this opportunity equally to every child."

"But even if we become soul masters, before we become extremely powerful beings, those nobles will look down on us. This has long been deeply ingrained in the hearts of every noble."

"But what they said makes sense. Although we are both spirit masters and both in the Spirit Hall Academy, there is still a qualitative gap between us."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingqiu opened her mouth. She knew that Xie Yue was right. There was an unbridgeable gap between the nobles and the common people.

But at the same time, Ye Jingqiu couldn't help but wonder, if one day the two could coexist peacefully.

Xie Yue sighed deeply and said, "Those few people are not easy to mess with. You never know when they will attack you. This matter happened because of Nana. You should stay single for the next few days."

"Although this is the Spirit Hall Academy, you are not absolutely safe. They have countless ways to make you lose face."

Ye Jingqiu's eyes flashed slightly and he nodded slowly.

Just then, the teacher walked in.

She looked to be in her thirties, with a beautiful face, but her expression was very serious. She had a stern face since she came in. When her eyes swept over the crowd, Ye Jingqiu was surprised to find that even the three arrogant people just now lowered their heads in fear.

The teacher's gaze swept over everyone and landed on Ye Jingqiu. "New student, come up and introduce yourselves."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jingqiu walked up to the stage. Without the slightest bit of panic, she stood still, looked at the crowd, and said, "My name is Ye Jingqiu, and I'm from Chating Village. I'm very happy to be your classmate."

Ye Jingqiu did not say what her relationship with the Spirit Hall was. She just wanted to become a powerful soul master through her own efforts in the Spirit Hall Academy.

But reality is always different from what we imagine.

As soon as she finished speaking, the audience burst into laughter. "Cha Ting Village, what kind of place is that? Which valley is it in?"

Originally, no one paid attention to Ye Jingqiu's self-introduction, but after she opened her mouth, laughter gradually broke out in the classroom.

Either with malicious intent or just a casual smile.
