He had only entered the Battle Aura Division for a year, and he had achieved the fifth rank. It was apparent that he was talented.

The previous incident at the Vermillion Bird cave was a major setback for Shen Jiawei. It was hard to imagine that someone like him, who was at the fourth rank in battle aura, would lose to a good-for-nothing like Shen Yanxiao and make an embarra.s.sment out of himself.

So what if that good-for-nothing obtained the Vermillion Bird? Was she not still trash who could not train in battle aura or magic? Even though their grandfather decided to send her into the Herbalist Division, everyone knew that one had to be educated from a young age if one wanted to be a successful herbalist. How could an idiot like her become an outstanding herbalist?

Furthermore, he was about to break through the sixth rank, and he had limitless prospects in his future. He did not believe that Shen Yanxiao could surpa.s.s his achievements just because she had the Vermillion Bird.

The more he thought about it, the more Shen Jiawei felt highly of himself. He even wore a smug expression on his face.

“Ha.” Suddenly, he heard snorts of soft laughter.

Shen Jiawei frowned and looked around for the source.

The sound came from the youngster who stood near him. Shen Jiawei frowned again. The youngster had a small frame, and he looked somewhat frail. It was easy to overlook him as he stood beside Fang Xi’s tall stature.

That trash dared to mock him?

Shen Jiawei immediately snorted at the thought.

The youngster was younger than him, but Shen Jiawei’s strength was almost unrivaled amongst his peers. He would not even consider the little kid as his rival.

“What are you laughing about?” Shen Jiawei said with displeasure.

Shen Yanxiao looked at Shen Jiawei, whom she had not seen in two months, and her eyes showed nothing but contempt for him.

She had not seen him for quite some time, and yet he still maintained the same characteristics.

“Nothing much. I just felt like laughing,” Shen Yanxiao said with a shrug. The smug expression that he showed before that was too obvious to be ignored. A mere fifth-ranked like him was content with his achievement, so how could she not find it funny?

“You…” Shen Jiawei glared at Shen Yanxiao. He would have taught the idiot a good lesson if Fang Xi were not there with them.

“Stop with your arguments.” Fang Xi furrowed his eyebrows. He did not wish to see his students clash with someone from the Archer Division.

Shen Jiawei gritted his teeth, and he managed to restrain himself. He immediately resolved to remember the lad’s appearance so that he could teach him a lesson in the future.

As usual, Shen Yanxiao smiled and said nothing. She could guess what was already in Shen Jiawei’s mind then.

‘You want to find trouble with me? Just you, alone?’

‘With my current strength, I could crush you with just one finger.’

“Xiao Yan, do proceed with testing your strength.” Fang Xi could feel the onset of a headache. He noticed the hatred that Shen Jiawei displayed on his face, and he felt helpless about the situation. Even though Shen Jiawei was talented, the abnormal kid beside him had already broken through to the sixth rank. The kid had also chosen his profession as an archer. The disparity between their achievements was too immense.

Fang Xi hoped that Shen Yanxiao would complete the appraisal as soon as possible so that he could send her back to Xie Yun. He did not want the bad blood between those two to worsen any further. He was not willing to see his student killed by the genius from the Archer Division just because he was ignorant.

Xiao Yan? Shen Jiawei frowned discreetly when he heard that name. That name was quite similar to the good-for-nothing, Shen Yanxiao, so he had subconsciously connected them.
