"Little girl, why don't you come with me instead. Don't worry, I am Very nice to pretty girls like you… Hehe. Way better than that scrawny brat next to you." The unbridled student said as he looked at Leng Lanyue from top to bottom with a lewd expression.
'This fucking bastard is courting death!'
'How dare he try to drag us along with him. If you want to die, why don't you go outside and seek it yourself? Why involve us? What did we do to you?'
'I really want to kill him right now myself before he gets frozen to death by the hand of that 'Cold Beauty.'
'Fuck! How come the air is really cold all of a sudden!'
The students who were trying not to get themselves involved complained inwardly as they could feel that the temperature in the building had suddenly dropped, causing the air in the building to become stale and it is getting hard to breathe.
The inconspicuous wannabe students, at this moment were staring at the unbridled student with bloodshot eyes. How did they get involved in this mess when they were trying to maintain a low-key? If that student does not die after this? They will have to find him and teach him a lesson. All the student thought as they showed indignant expressions on their faces.
…
Meanwhile, the unbridled student also sensed that the temperature in the building was dropping, it was getting colder. He raised an eyebrow in surprise, but instantly he let out a grin and it got wider as he exuded an elemental aura, this aura allowed him to be unaffected by the chilliness of the ice elemental ability . The unbridled student had a fire elemental affinity and he was confident in his abilities, so he was confident in resisting this kind of cold aura, so with a grin still on his face, he spoke.
"I quite like feisty pretty girls like you more… Did you think you can scare me away with your ice ability? Why don't you come over to this Big brother's side? I promise that I won't treat you bad." The unbridled student continued with an arrogant expression almost as if he had already won.
"…"
The inconspicuous wannabe students were stunned by his confident words, and they shook their heads shortly after.
'This fucker is done for. He does not know who he is dealing with. He thinks this little fire can stop her, the cold beauty. Keep dreaming!' The inconspicuous wannabe students scoffed at the unbridled student as they waited for the good show to begin.
At this moment, unbridled student thought that he had already won, so he made his way towards Shenyan and Leng Lanyue. As he got closer and closer, he could not resist the urge to smile at his success at finally getting himself such a pretty little thing.
Throughout all this, Leng Lanyue tried to maintain her composure, but she could not resist getting angry as it was apparently shown by her unintended release of her ice elemental ability. Shenyan on the other hand felt the chill in the air, but he was unperturbed as it did not affect him that much. Despite that, Shenyan was still interested in what the fellow student was trying to do.
'Why does he keep saying strange things? Why do all the fellow students act so strange?' Shenyan thought to himself as he stared at the approaching student.
A few moments later, the unbridled student finally got close to Shenyan and Leng Lanyue's location — especially close to Leng Lanyue as he stretched out his hand to grab her slender hands.
"Hehe… You are mine now!" The unbridled student said as the smile on his face became brighter, like that of someone who had won a lottery.
But before he could even touch the unblemished hand of Leng Lanyue, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his right hand that was outstretched. The unbridled student immediately looked down at his hand, and was shocked to see that, at an unknown time, his right hand was frozen solid with ice shards protruding out of it.
His surprise was only for a moment, he tried using his fire aura to melt the ice, but he found out that he had no feeling in his right hand at this moment. From then on, his surprised face turn into fear. Shortly after, he was assaulted with a sharp pain that spread from his right hand throughout his entire body and he let out a screech and agonizing scream when he could not bear the pain anymore.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!… My hand!!!... you fucking bi—"
"Pahk!"
Before the unbridled student could finish saying whatever he was going to say, a slender hand encased in ice landed on the right side of his face, sending him flying until he was smash into a wall that was not far away from his location.
"Boom!"
Immediately after, the whole building turned into silence, as they watched the whole situation unfold. Some were shocked by the turn of events while others enjoyed the beat down of the unbridled student who could not control his urges.
The inconspicuous wannabe students could not hide the smile on their faces at this moment as they watched the unbridled student, who was currently battered from facing the infamous cold beauty.
'Serves him right! This is what you get for messing with the wrong person!'
'Fucking bastard got it easy and only got his right hand frozen. At least, he can still use his left hand for other stuff.'
'How I wish I could beat him myself. But this is more satisfying. Still, I wonder why he only got his right hand frozen though. All the other students got their whole body frozen just from one confrontation. Was this bastard just lucky or something?' One of the students thought.
…
Meanwhile, while everyone was engaged in their own thoughts, a sudden furious voice resounded from the top floor.
"Who dares to cause trouble in the task hall!!"
The voice said in an angry tone as a figure suddenly appeared on the first floor of the building. His sharp eyes glared fiercely at the students who were currently looking at the task board and those that were just taking a break after completing their tasks.
This fierce look and that overbearing aura being emitted from the figure's body sent a chill down all the students' spine as they broke into a cold sweat, they did not dare to avert their eyes as the figure looked at them. This is Elder Lu of the Task Hall. No one dares to cause a commotion here when he was around. That unbridled student was probably new here, that was likely the reason why he dared to cause a trouble when Elder Lu was around.
After glancing around for moment, Elder Lu's gaze landed on the individual who had his face caved in from a ruthless ice slap and then he shifted his gaze as he looked at the two individuals facing the battered student. Immediately, the students thought that the two students would likely be punished despite being the victims of this whole situation, after all, they dared to fight in the task hall. But what they saw next left them dumbfounded.
Elder Lu approached the two students and suddenly he bowed his head and spoke in a respectful tone.
"Miss Leng!"
Leng Lanyue was taken by surprise when she saw this, and the other students were astonished by this turn of events. The fierce Elder Lu is bowing to a mere student? What is this student's identity? All the students thought almost simultaneously.
After the initial surprise, Leng Lanyue composed herself as she replied, "Elder Lu. There is no need to polite with me. I am just a student in the academy just like everyone else. Please refer to me as such."
"This… Understood." Elder Lu was hesitant for brief moment before replying in a respectful tone.
And then he continued, "S-Student Leng. May I ask what happened here?"
Leng Lanyue did not know how to reply so after thinking for a moment, she only gave a brief explanation, "This fellow student could not keep his hands to himself, that was all."
Even though, she did not explain it fully, the elder clearly understood what she meant and then he turned his head to look at the student who was currently unconscious at this moment with a fierce expression on his face.
"How dare he… Someone take this unruly student and send him to the disciplinary committee cell room. I will deal with him later." Elder Lu ordered as two figured came and grab the unconscious student and dragged him away while he was bleeding from his face and his jaw slightly crooked from the attack.
Shortly after the two figures disappeared with the unbridled student, elder Lu turned and saw the individual standing next to Leng Lanyue and he could not help but ask.
"Student Leng. This is… ?"
Leng Lanyue was confused by what elder Lu meant but seeing the direction where he was looking as he asked the question, she immediately understood and replied in a gleeful tone.
"This is my friend, Shenyan. He came here to pick some mission tasks to complete."
"Y-Your friend?" Elder Lu muttered under his breath.
He then narrowed his eyes and stared intently at the youngster who was called a friend, Shenyan, but it was only for brief moment as he turned his head away shortly after and then he continued, "I see, it turned out to be your friend. No problem, no problem. You said he came here to take mission tasks? Well, there are plenty of mission tasks on the task board that haven't been taken yet. Not many people take these tasks due to the risks." Elder Lu said as he led them to the task board. Immediately shooing away all the other students that were standing in front of the task board.
