"Well, what the senior said isn't wrong, but they are them, and I am me. We're different, you know," shrugged Lu Yunxiao, indifferent.
"What's so different about you?" The robust senior chuckled.
In his eyes, Lu Yunxiao, who looked about fourteen or fifteen, might have high talent, but in terms of strength, he wouldn't surpass those people by much.
Nothing to it, too young. Achieving combatant strength at fourteen or fifteen? Honestly, he didn't think he'd encounter such a freak. He also didn't believe a somewhat remote city like Rock Desert City could harbor such prodigies.
After all, such existences were rare even in the vast world of the Jia Nan Academy.
However, the world is vast, and his viewpoint doesn't represent everything.
Just because he believed there weren't any didn't mean there really weren't any.
"What's so different? Well, I'll tell you, senior, don't get angry," Lu Yunxiao smiled faintly.
"Heh, go ahead. As your senior, I have some tolerance," the robust senior said calmly.
"Then I'll tell you. The difference between me and them is that they can only be educated by you, senior, while I can thrash you," Lu Yunxiao said with a smirk.
The student in front of him had considerable strength, probably around a four-star Dou Zhe. Against the newbies, he'd naturally be dominant.
But for him, a four-star Dou Zhe was someone he could easily thrash. Not to mention, apart from his exceptional combat prowess, he himself had a rank two levels higher than the current student. To say it plainly, this student wasn't enough for him to take seriously.
"Heh heh, such an arrogant kid. Among the newbies I've seen, your arrogance ranks first," the robust senior first appeared surprised but then his expression turned slightly serious. It seemed he felt underestimated.
"This junior brother has quite the personality. That statement was pretty cool."
"Sure, it's cool, but it's a bit reckless. Saying things like that might genuinely anger Zhang Yuan."
"What's recklessness? That's confidence. Young people should have some vigor. Besides, judging by this junior brother's composure, his strength must be formidable. Zhang Yuan might not necessarily be able to beat him."
"Oh, this handsome junior brother might be in for it now. I feel sorry for him!"
Lu Yunxiao's words immediately stirred all the senior students. The male students were ready to watch Lu Yunxiao get beaten, while the female students began gossiping.
Listening to their words, Lu Yunxiao's mouth twitched. He asked in his mind, "System, am I really that arrogant?"
"Well, a bit," the system answered softly.
"Really? I was just stating facts!" Lu Yunxiao defended.
He really could easily thrash this male student.
"You're stating facts, but they might not see it that way," the system replied calmly.
"I see. Well, it seems the only way to prove I'm not arrogant is by doing one thing," Lu Yunxiao sighed and said.
"What's that?" the system inquired.
"That's by actually thrashing him. Then it won't be my arrogance," Lu Yunxiao said softly.
"Ah, that's surely a story many would love to hear," the system remarked quietly.
"I guess so. These guys deserve a lesson for humiliating newbies. Let them know that newbies also have a temper, hehe," Lu Yunxiao chuckled.
"Absolutely right, host. This system is ready to watch the show," the system said lightly.
"In that case, keep your eyes peeled," Lu Yunxiao said, refocusing his attention on the robust senior in front of him, who seemed a bit sullen.
"The senior says I'm arrogant, but I speak the truth. But I'm sure you won't believe it. So how about this, senior, why don't you try it yourself? Try it and see. Also, I think if I beat you, I won't need to go sunbathe outside anymore," Lu Yunxiao said calmly and gently.
"That's right. If you beat me, you won't have to go out. But I doubt you've got what it takes," the robust senior's gaze sharpened slightly. Qi surged within him as he spoke faintly.
"Whether I've got what it takes or not, senior, that's not for you to decide," Lu Yunxiao smiled, and his qi began to circulate. A glint flickered in his eyes.
"Well, then I'll have to see the strength of my junior brother for myself. Be careful," the robust senior warned, clenching his right hand and lunging a punch towards Lu Yunxiao.
The punch was swift, carrying a breeze that indicated its considerable force.
"Zhang Yuan is really going all out," a male student observed, recognizing Zhang Yuan's seriousness.
"It looks like this newbie is in for trouble," another male student agreed.
"Who asked him to be so arrogant? He's brought this upon himself."
"Yeah, arrogance comes with consequences," several male students nodded, echoing agreement.
However, the situation among the female students was entirely different from that of the male students.
"Ah, Zhang Yuan is using all his strength against the junior brother. He's not holding back at all. How despicable!"
"That's right. He bows down to the seniors but goes all out against the juniors. Shame on him!"
"He's definitely jealous of the junior brother's good looks. Oh, my handsome junior brother!"
"This is too much. Does he really need to go all out against a junior?"
A group of female students chattered, but Lu Yunxiao remained unfazed. Watching Zhang Yuan's punch coming at him, he gently raised his hand and leaned into it.
"Utterly arrogant!" Now the robust senior was even more furious. He increased the force in his hand, but Lu Yunxiao effortlessly grasped it, preventing him from retracting his fist.
"Let go!" The robust senior fumed, kicking fiercely at Lu Yunxiao with his right foot, forming a blurry light blade at the tip—a Huang-rank advanced technique, Blade Kick!
Lu Yunxiao's expression remained unchanged. He kicked out with his right foot, intersecting both legs. His golden qi shattered the blurry light blade.
The robust senior's expression changed drastically. Before he could speak, he felt a surge of force travel from his hand, and then a light palm directly imprinted on his body.
"Well, what the senior said isn't wrong, but they are them, and I am me. We're different, you know," shrugged Lu Yunxiao, indifferent.
"What's so different about you?" The robust senior chuckled.
