The Geared Immortal

Chapter 195 - Mistaken Identity Part 33



An Academy Life: 5

/*unedited*/

Before reaching the house assigned to him, Shin Jiao felt that someone is watching him, but he acted as if he didn\'t notice. He won\'t make his move as long as he is not provoked. He didn\'t even use his spiritual sense as the other party would also know this. Plus it would be just a waste of his time.

So without any worries, he walks towards a small but well-kept house. The academy treats its students better as the students would produce revenue for the academy through missions. This way the academy would maintain their prestige and at the same time support their students. The longer one stays in the academy, the more they will receive missions. The more missions they take, the better their reputation grows and they would earn more money or credits.

This is the reason why the student\'s stay in the academy is free and most of their daily needs are well taken care of, because once a student is already able to take missions then they would be able to repay the academy thousand times over.

As Shin Jiao was about to approach his small lodging house, he saw two figures standing outside of the gate to his small house. There was an evil grin on their faces when they saw him walking towards them.

"Are you the new student who entered our school?" one of the young men asked with a wicked sneer on his face.

The other young man is also showed a sneer on his face revealing a small fang on his mouth. This made Shin Jiao notice something peculiar about this situation and the people in front of him. The two people seem to be \'not\' true humans. He can clearly see that they are of the beast clan race and that they have the aura of which is sometimes cannot be detected by cultivators. Though they tried to cover their aura with some method, yet it is to no avail as Shin Jiao is already familiar with this kind of aura.

"Yes, I am… So what do two seniors of the beast-man clan doing in the academy?" Shin Jiao said with a wide grin in his face.

When they heard his words the two suddenly showed an ugly expression, horror can be clearly seen in their faces.

"You… you… how dare you!? Don\'t slander us!" one of them shouted.

"How can you say that we are beast-men when we are clearly humans? Don\'t joke around bastard!" shouted the other one as he quickly dashed towards Shin Jiao.

"This should not happen… How can he sense our hidden aura, when even the school teachers and others can\'t recognize us… We have to silence this bastard." he thought as his figure drew closer towards Shin Jiao at a very fast speed.

This time, Shin Jiao spreads his spiritual sense. And he immediately saw two people from around 500 meters away from him; one of them is a person that Shin Jiao is a little familiar with, it was Bushan Deng.

Beside him is a man who has a similar facial feature of Bushan Deng.

"If I\'m not mistaken, that guy should probably be his brother or a cousin. I guess this means trouble." Shin Jiao thought while observing the incoming attack from one of the beast-men who is disguised as human cultivators.

Whoosh!!!

The fast-approaching fist flew through the air as it directly went for the kill. But Shin Jiao looks at it with indifference in his eyes. Thought the movement of the beast-man is fast, but his attack is just pure strength and he is not using any techniques. So this made Shin Jiao feel a little at ease.

"Since you look down on me… Then suffer the consequence of your ignorance." Shin Jiao thought as he quickly stretched forth his hand.

Upon seeing this, the beast-man showed a sneer on his face. Suddenly his fist burst with extreme heat as it turned into a claw mid-way in his attack.

"Die!"

Crack!

Thud!

Before everyone knew it, they saw the beast-man figure lying on the ground. His neck is clearly twisted at a weird angle. When the three saw this, they gasped in disbelief. They knew the power and ability of the man who just died. He is a good fighter and would never be easily defeated by a lowly primary-stage gold core realm cultivator.

"You!... you killed him! You will die!" shouted the remaining beast clan young man as he dashed forward while drawing his sword from his spatial tool.

The gleaming silver sword suddenly showed some ripple around its blade. This energy ripple made Shin Jiao felt danger as he knows that the weapon is a low-grade artifact. Though his skin and body are strong like that of a gold core beast, yet the power of an artifact is nothing to scoff at.

So without thinking twice, he used shadow steps to evade the incoming sword thrusts with Qi waves. Because of his quick movement, he was able to dodge every attack sent towards him. Then suddenly his eyes, turned to slit as if seeing something and his figure flashed.

"What! Where? Where is he?" the rampaging beast-man was startled upon losing his opponent.

But when he turns his head to the side, he suddenly feels his vision slowly getting blurry as he saw himself sliding sideways. He notices in the corner of his eye a headless body before his vision turned dimmer.

Shin Jiao calmly stood on the spot and waved his hand to store his sword.

"You can come out now!" Shin Jiao shouted.

This startled the two as they saw Shin Jiao looking at them with a smile hanging on his handsome clear face.

"Shit! He saw us. We have to run! That bastard dared to kill a student of the academy; we should report this to the school. Let\'s go, brother!" Bushan Ding said while holding his brother\'s hands trying to drag him.

"Heh, it\'s no use running. This is a secluded area. Why do you think we dared ambush him in this place? He also knows that that\'s why he dared kill in this place… Go… I will stay here and deal with him. You tell the school about this." Bushan Ding\'s brother said as he slowly walks out of the place.

"Big brother… this is dangerous. That guy is too abnormal. We should not have provoked that monster. Let\'s just go." Bushan Deng said while fear is clearly written all over his face.

He knew that Shin Jiao spared his life in the class that morning, but he didn\'t imagine that the young man he thought was just slightly stronger than himself is actually a hidden monster. So now he feared that his life is at risk and his only option if for the school to take care of Shin Jiao.

According to the laws of the school, it is prohibited to kill another student in a private fight or even coerce a student to have a life and death fight against their will. And this crime is punishable by either having this cultivation thrashed or their dantian destroyed.

If their cultivation is just thrashed then there is still hope for them to cultivate from the start. But if one\'s dantian is destroyed then that\'s the end of them being a cultivator.

With this in mind, Bushan Deng is willing to run away with his brother to punish Shin Jiao.

"Little brother… I\'m enough to stop him. You just go and tell this to the school Dean. We must let this bastard suffer." Bushan Deng\'s big brother said.

With a nod, Bushan Deng immediately turns around and started to run while shouting.

"Don\'t kill him, big brother, that would be too easy for him. He must suffer the consequences for offending us."

When his little brother\'s figure is already a distance away, Bushan Deng\'s big brother turns his gaze towards Shin Jiao who just looks at them calmly.

"I heard that your name is Shin Jiao. I agree that you are a strong warrior. But to kill a student of the academy is your mistake. I will teach you a lesson that would make you want to cry and regret that you have provoked me and my little brother."

"I am Guxian Deng, and this would be the last name you will ever remember. For killing two students of the academy, I will pass the judgment of the academy to you… So… die!" Guxian Deng said as he took out an artifact from his spatial tool.

The artifact is shaped like an urn with a golden pattern on the side. It exudes dark green smoke around it, which made it look sinister and ghastly.

If one would look at it, they can even hear a faint ghostly cry coming from the dark green smoke.

When Shin Jiao saw this artifact he felt a little curious at it. This is his first time seeing such an artifact and that it made him curious to the extent of wanting to steal that thing away from his opponent and break it apart to study it thoroughly. He didn\'t care if it is powerful or mediocre, what Shin Jiao care is the knowledge he can get from that thing.

When Guxian Deng saw Shin Jiao\'s expression, he thought that he was scared by the awesomeness of his artifact. And that his opponent is stunned and is unable to react in fear.

If he could know what Shin Jiao is thinking, he would think that Shin Jiao is a lunatic.

How would he dare think to break apart an artifact? Only crazy people would do that.
