Douluo Continent: Long Live the Spirit Hall

After a while, she finally broke free from Yan's embrace, thinking to herself, "This little lecher is taking advantage of me." Stealing a glance at Yan's smiling face, she couldn't help but let her mind wander. She shook her head vigorously.

"What's wrong with me? He's my student. But he's so good at it..."

"Teacher, are you alright?" Yan found Zhuang Jing's emotional fluctuations quite amusing. Her daily life of developing her character in a sneaky way, occasionally teasing the teacher and pursuing senior girls, was simple and monotonous, but not too boring.

"No, it's nothing." Zhuang Jing shook her head to clear her mind of these thoughts, avoiding Yan's gaze, and instructed Lei Xiang, "Lei Xiang, please look after Feng Wen. Once he wakes up, you can call the caregiver to check on him." Lei Xiang nodded, and Zhuang Jing felt relieved. Then she took Yan to the college library and used her employee ID to get him a library card, extending his borrowing privileges.

After Yan achieved his goal from Zhuang Jing, he didn't kick the "tool teacher" aside. After all, she was a beautiful woman and pleasing to the eye.

When Yan and Zhuang Jing returned to the infirmary, they saw Lei Xiang and Feng Wen surrounded by three people, all of whom were Lei Xiang's roommates whom they had seen that morning. Two of them were even from Zhuang Jing's class, the Fire Brothers, a pair of twins who played fire magic.

Another young man, who was on good terms with Lei Xiang, shouted, "How are you two? Are you alright now? I heard from the Huo brothers that you two were causing quite a ruckus that day." Feng Wen laughed and scolded, "Look at your mouth, you've always been like this since you were little, once you start talking you can't stop. Can't you be quiet for a while?" The young man added, "You've been bullying me since we were little, you won't even let me speak?" From the conversation between the young man and Feng Wen, it was learned that they were cousins, both surnamed Feng, and both had the wind attribute aptitude.

Yan glanced at the Fire Brothers, who were playing with fire. He didn't know what to say about such a straightforward surname. In fact, he himself was the same; Yan was three fires, but he didn't think he had chosen the name himself.

While Yan was lost in thought, the infirmary nurses came over and kicked out the group of people who were disturbing the patients' rest, including the beautiful teacher Zhuang Jing and the dazed Yan.

Yan didn't really care about these trivial matters. After chatting with Zhuang Jing for a while, he returned to the library with his library card, intending to set a small goal first: to spend a few days reading through all the books he could borrow.

Over the next three days, Feng Wen and Lei Xiang returned to the classroom one after another, and the first-year students' coursework gradually became more demanding.

However, those basic coursework knowledge was child's play for Yan. But it was too early to skip class at the start of the semester, so it would be a waste of time for him. However, the fact that Zhuang Jing, a beautiful woman, was in class made him a little more alert.

Zhuang Jing and Yan had become more familiar with each other. It seemed that Yan was used to 'betraying his teacher and ancestors,' and his bold gaze made the beautiful teacher uneasy. However, she couldn't help but think about it and actively made excuses for this bad student, thinking that he was going through puberty or something.

Yan flirted with the beautiful teacher and occasionally bumped into a beautiful female student at the library. He was living a rather pleasant life.

After classes ended at noon that day, students went to the cafeteria in twos and threes. Yan followed suit and took Hua Song and a few of his underlings to have a big meal. The underlings respected his abilities and took the initiative to pay for it. Of course, Hua Song, being the sensible person, also played matchmaker.

Yan wasn't averse to this behavior and was willing to give some pointers to these guys who weren't good at studying but came from well-off families. After all, he was living in the human world now, and he always needed help with his basic needs like food, clothing, and shelter.

Just as their group sat down to order, a commotion broke out at the cafeteria entrance. Two beautiful women had entered, leaving many students stunned.

Hua Song glanced over there, then leaned close to Yan and whispered something.

"Boss, it's Senior Sister Zixue. Do you think she'll come over here?"

"This is troublesome. In such a public place, I have a feeling something bad is going to happen!" Yan saw that senior student Zixue was pulling another beautiful girl over. Most of the people sitting here were first-year students, and the actions of the two beauties made some of the older students around them look at them with sharp eyes.

These upperclassmen are both eyeing the younger female students and also longing for the famously beautiful upperclassmen. They have mixed feelings, explosive tempers, and their overall strength is further compounded by the trouble of being labeled as femme fatales.

Chapter 630 A Small Attempt

"Boss, the blonde beauty next to Senior Zixue is Senior Jin Lili, a third-year student, ranked fourth on the beauty list. Zixue is shy and gentle, while Jin Lili is more beautiful and outgoing and lively. Her suitors could stretch all the way to Longcheng Street outside the academy."

Hua Song spoke about the two beauties, saying, "Jin Lili and Zi Xue are both from noble families and are also stunning beauties, so they naturally become the objects of pursuit for most of the boys in the academy. The eight beauties of the academy usually go home for dinner and rarely show their faces in public like this."

He gave a knowing smile as he said this, “Boss, what do you think they came here for today?”

"Hua Song, are you asking for trouble?"

Yan glanced at his underling, and Hua Song immediately became obedient. He then raised his gaze and glanced at Zi Xue's side.

The purple-haired Zi Xue was gentle and quiet, and the girl next to her was Jin Lili, who was a little taller than Zi Xue. Her long golden hair and white suit made her look exceptionally charming.

Jin Lili has fair skin, long golden hair in waves, and bright, alluring eyes. Her figure is also fuller than Zi Xue's; she truly has the looks of an angel and the figure of a devil.

Yan couldn't help but nod in approval, saying, "Wow, big waves! Not bad at all, truly like a cluster of peaks and surging waves."

"Boss, hey, why are Senior Sister Zixue and the others walking towards Lei Xiang and the others?"

Hua Song noticed that Zi Xue and another beautiful woman glanced in their direction first, their expressions changed, but they didn't come over. Instead, they went to Lei Xiang's table. So he glanced at Yan and asked in a low voice.

Yan said somewhat helplessly, "Zixue probably wanted to apologize to Lei Xiang. That's just her personality. She felt she was wrong about the dark horse incident last time. It wasn't a big deal in itself, but with so many people watching, it's easy to cause trouble."

"Boss, then we..."

Hua Song couldn't help but ask again, and Yan shook his head.

"Observe the situation and don't rush over."

Yan gave the instructions, and Hua Song and the others nodded. However, they stopped ordering the food they had just ordered. Since they sensed that a fight might break out, they didn't want to waste food.

At this moment, Zi Xue walked up to Lei Xiang and nodded politely to him, saying softly, "Um, Lei Xiang, I'm sorry about what happened last time."

The boy with the green hair was still clueless about how good his senior was, and seemed rather immature and aloof. He looked up at Zi Xue and said coldly, "No need. Just don't touch the Black Dragon in the future. I can't guarantee that you'll be fine every time."

"sorry."

Zi Xue apologized again, then turned and went back to her table. Zi Xue has a gentle personality and usually takes the initiative to find the cause of things within herself. This time, she apologized to Lei Xiang because she felt that she was in the wrong.

However, her apology was met with Lei Xiang's coldness, which angered Lei Xiang. The Feng and Huo brothers at his table complained that he didn't know how to cherish women, and Zi Xue's best friend Jin Lili couldn't accept his attitude.

"Hey, what are you so arrogant about? Apologize to Zixue right now. Don't you feel ashamed to be so mean to a girl?"

Jin Lili was furious and wanted to cause trouble for Lei Xiang, but Zi Xue desperately pulled her back, saying repeatedly, "Forget it, it's not his fault."

Lei Xiang currently has no interest in beautiful women, so he bluntly retorted, "With such a bad temper, be careful not to damage your liver and get wrinkles, or no one will want you in the future."

Jin Lili had always been everyone's darling, pampered both at home and at school. She had never been so humiliated before. Her fair face turned pale with anger, and she shouted, "Who will teach him a lesson?"

As soon as she said that, all eyes in the cafeteria were fixed on Lei Xiang's table. Everyone was eager to try their luck. It didn't necessarily have to be about winning the heart of a beauty; as long as they gained the favor of Jin Lili, the daughter of a noble family, it would be a great way for ordinary students to advance their careers.

"Lei Xiang, it's not that we don't want to help you, but you've angered everyone. We'll go find the teacher first, you have to hold on."

Mars, one of the Huo brothers, stood up and said that since they couldn't persuade Lei Xiang to leave, they had to go find someone first. The four people at the table gave him a "good luck" look, and then they ran off in a flash.

Lei Xiangteng stood up abruptly, whether intentionally showing off or genuinely feeling powerful, he coldly looked at the group of students who had gathered around him and said in a rather childish tone, "Those who want to die, come at me all at once. Women are all damn troublemakers."

These words have a wide impact. Some girls who originally thought Lei Xiang was very handsome no longer have much of a good impression of him. He probably only thinks he's so domineering.

Most of those surrounding Lei Xiang were elegantly dressed nobles, including Warren, the one who had wanted to teach him a lesson back then. At that moment, I rushed out first, shouting, "This is the kid who insulted Junior Sister Zixue back then! Everyone, let's go and beat him to death!"

As he shouted, he rushed over and threw a punch. The fighting spirit on it wasn't weak; he wasn't the kind of spoiled brat who was completely crippled. However, he probably underestimated Lei Xiang, thinking that Lei Xiang was definitely doomed with so many people surrounding him, and the latter easily grabbed his arm.

Lei Xiang grabbed his fist. "I don't know how you got to the third year. Today I'll teach you nobles who only know how to bully others a lesson."

Whether his words were sincere or a sudden flash of inspiration, they brought the conflict between some noble and commoner students to the forefront. Some nobles in the academy who liked to bully others were truly annoying. Now that he was on the moral high ground, he had gained some supporters, and naturally, the number of people attacking him decreased significantly.

As Lei Xiang spoke, he twisted hard, dislocating Warren's right arm, and then kicked him away. Warren crushed a wooden table and lay among the shards, screaming in pain.

When the noble students saw that this commoner dared to resist and beat Warren so badly, they rushed forward with a sense of righteous indignation. However, most of them were novices and few of them posed a threat to Lei Xiang. He easily dealt with most of them in a few moves.

However, there were some truly skilled individuals among this group. Three noble experts silently let their fists do the talking, their faces grim as they surrounded and attacked Lei Xiang. The four of them fought fiercely, destroying all the surrounding tables and chairs, and the area affected by the battle was getting larger and larger.

As Lei Xiang and his men fought, they approached Yan's side. Hua Song, naturally not wanting to cause trouble, quickly advised, "Boss, let's stay away!"

At this moment, Lei Xiang was being besieged by three people and was suffering quite a bit. He had not learned many combat techniques, and his fighting skills were mostly used to rampage on the battlefield. However, he needed other skills to fight against experts, which he had not yet learned. His control and skills over his strength were also insufficient, which put him at a disadvantage when fighting these noble experts.

There is a difference between the nobles of the Dragon God Empire and the nobles of the Douluo Continent. There is a natural threshold for entering cultivation in the Douluo Continent. In the era before Yan, those who did not have innate soul power could not cultivate, so even if many nobles wanted to develop, they could not do much.

In the Dragon God Empire, cultivation is prevalent, and nobles have better conditions. Some people just laze around and do nothing, but others work hard and diligently.

The three opponents Lei Xiang is currently facing are of this type. They are not as gifted as Lei Xiang in terms of strength, but they have the advantage in technique and are skilled in fighting spirit. Lei Xiang may still have a chance to win in a one-on-one fight, but he cannot withstand being attacked by multiple people.

If Lei Xiang had one or two helpers to block at this moment, he might have been able to counterattack and win, but unfortunately he didn't.

His words just now stirred the blood of many people, but most ordinary students had no backing or power, and they would stay out of it if it didn't concern them. They might support Lei Xiang's words in their hearts, but they certainly wouldn't take any real action.

Lei Xiang was forced to retreat by the three men, blood trickling down his lip. But the boy was indeed stubborn and inflexible. He neither used the other nobles as punching bags nor ran away, and just stubbornly endured the pain, becoming the punching bag himself.

"Boss, what are you planning to do?"

While Hua Song was focused on the battle, he noticed Yan casually picking up a plate from the side and quickly asked him in a low voice, as he didn't want to get involved in this dispute with the nobles.

Yan Dandan replied, "Lei Xiang is about to retaliate, and his methods are very dangerous. He could easily cause someone's death if he's not careful."

As Yan spoke, he flung the plate in his hand. The spinning plate, accompanied by a whistling sound, hit the three nobles who had attacked together. They immediately felt a lump in their throats and tears streamed down their faces. Their bodies subconsciously relaxed their power output, which gave Lei Xiang an opportunity.

Lei Xiang, who had been beaten for so long, was also burning with anger. He unleashed the Thirteen Styles of Thunder, sweeping over a hundred punches that covered the three students. The powerful force caused severe damage to them.

Lei Xiang had held back when he beat up those useless nobles, leaving them with only superficial injuries. But he showed no mercy to these three who wanted to humiliate him. Crackling sounds echoed from their bodies, indicating that many of their bones were broken.

Peng Peng Peng's three 'sandbags' landed one after another. Yan pretended to be casual as he withdrew his hand and looked towards the doorway. He wanted to see if his actions would lead Lei Xiang's fate in a different direction. This should be a good subject.

At this moment, an old magician with white hair and beard walked into the cafeteria. He glanced at the three people on the ground, then looked around and said in a deep voice, "You guys really have something to offer by starting a fight in the cafeteria!"

"Vice Dean."

Several nobles from Warren's group immediately stepped forward, pointing at Lei Xiang and accusing him: "Vice Dean, you must take charge! This lowly commoner dared to lay a hand on us and even injured a senior from the Martial Arts Department. Such a reckless fellow must be severely punished."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The vice-dean's sharp gaze swept over them, and the several disgruntled nobles immediately quieted down. He then glanced at the injured Lei Xiang and said in a deep voice, "A group of people can't beat one person, what a bunch of trash! And you still have the nerve to ask me to punish you severely? I think it's you who need to be punished..."

His words angered many noble students, but they dared not retaliate against such a high-ranking member of the academy and could only silently endure it.

“I know you guys too. It’s not really the college’s place to interfere in student matters. Let’s leave this here. But causing trouble in the college is wrong. All students who participated in the fight in the cafeteria will receive a warning.”

Chapter 631 The Inheritance of the Mad God

Inside the Tiandu Academy cafeteria, the vice dean's seemingly equal leniency actually protected Lei Xiang and glossed over the group fight.

"Lei Xiang, can you please behave yourself? You've only been in school for a few days and you've already learned how to fight in groups."

Inside the teaching building office, Lei Xiang was being reprimanded by Zhuang Jing, while Yan He, Hua Song, and others watched from the side. As those in the know and bystanders, they were all called over to be disciplined, but Zhuang Jing mainly reprimanded Lei Xiang and didn't get along with the others.

"Alright, the vice dean only gave you a warning this time, which was actually to help you. Those noble kids are considered alright within the academy, but they really go too far outside. It's good for you not to escalate the matter. Go back now!"

After Zhuang Jing said a few more words, she waved her hand, and the group of students left the office as if they had been granted a pardon. Feng Wen, Feng Yun, Huo Xing, and Huo Xing, who had run away ahead of time, explained what had happened to Lei Xiang.

They didn't really run away; they went to get reinforcements. The vice dean was someone they found. However, they didn't expect Lei Xiang to be so powerful, taking down a group of noble children all by himself.

Lei Xiang felt relieved after realizing that these people hadn't really betrayed him. As he spoke, he walked up to Yan and thanked him, "Yan, thank you for helping me in the cafeteria earlier."

He wasn't stupid. If that tray hadn't suddenly flown out in the cafeteria, he might have had to resort to some rather taboo methods, which could have made things quite troublesome.

"It's okay, as long as you don't think I'm being nosy."

Yan glanced at Lei Xiang with a half-smile. Because of his intervention, Lei Xiang's involvement in the group fight had taken a different turn. He was curious to know if Lei Xiang could still obtain some opportunities like in the original story.

Thank you.

Lei Xiang felt uneasy under Yan's strange gaze, thanked him again, and followed Feng Wen and the others to the dormitory.

I'm going to the library.

After greeting Hua Song and his gang, Yan left the crowd and headed towards the northwest of the academy.

The Tiandu Academy Library is located in the northwest of the academy. It is an eight-story building with a large collection of books covering many fields, including many precious books on martial arts and magic.

Ordinary students of Tiandu Academy can only access the first five floors of the library. The top three floors are off-limits unless they apply for special permission or are appreciated by the academy's higher-ups.

After entering the first floor of the library, Yan looked around and saw huge bookshelves, each taller than a person, with labels indicating their categories.
