Douluo Dalu - The Story Of Sheng Feilong

After the brief introduction, Shen Yi looked at Sheng Feilong, Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi and spoke in her usual, professionally cold voice .

"Since the three of you transferred in late, you can take the empty seats in the back . We"re preparing for our match against the second grade right now . You"re free to join a team as well . I hope you"ll be able to fit in quickly . "

Just before they walked to their seats, Sheng Feilong noticed Tang Wulin looking at Ye Xinglan with sparkling eyes . He couldn"t help but frown lightly while contemplating the situation in his head .

"First he played the weak little junior in front of that girl in the entrance exam before kicking her out in a single move, and now he"s set his eyes on Ye Xinglan? This guy really is a lecherous fellow . . . Not that he"ll be able to take advantage of Ye Xinglan, though; she"ll probably beat him up if he tries anything funny . "

After that, Sheng Feilong took his seat, choosing one near Jian w.a.n.g and an unknown, big fellow with brown hair and bulging muscles . He looked similar to a bear, but seeing that Jian w.a.n.g got along with him just fine, he"ll probably be a good guy . Tang Wulin approached Xu Lizhi while a tall and handsome male went over to Ye Xinglan, only to be completely ignored by her, and Jian w.a.n.g and the bear-like fellow came over to Sheng Feilong"s desk .

Sheng Feilong smiled brightly at Jian w.a.n.g when the latter stood before him, casually coughing out a greeting .

"Long time no see, old friend . You get along with the others quite well?" At the second part, he was glancing at the bear-like fellow with a friendly gaze . Jian w.a.n.g shook his head after the strange greeting and replied in an upbeat voice .

"Yeah, yeah, long time no see . Let me introduce you; This is Yang Nianxia . He"s a blacksmith, just like me, and really talented . We became friends after a mock battle . Brother Nianxia, this is my "friend of old times", Sheng Feilong . "

Sheng Feilong chuckled at the "friend of old times" part while extending his hand to Yang Nianxia with a smile .

"Nice to meet you . " They shook hands with Yang Nianxia returning the greeting . After that, they talked a bit about what they did in the last month and Sheng Feilong made sure not to mention that he came from the Inner Court . Jian w.a.n.g noticed that and tactfully let that detail slip .

Some time later, Sheng Feilong saw Tang Wulin walk up to Ye Xinglan . She didn"t ignore him but instead instantly asked where Tang Wulin took Xu Lizhi a few days ago; On their last day off, Xu Lizhi mentioned that he"ll be busy with some stuff and later told them that he"d been out with Tang Wulin and his friends . Sheng Feilong didn"t know they knew each other, but apparently they met a few years ago when Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan were sent to some event to represent Shrek"s younger generation .

Tang Wulin and Ye Xinglan got into an argument for a few seconds before Gu Yue and Xu Lizhi stepped in . tang Wulin then asked her to join their group for the upcoming compet.i.tion, luring her with the promise of being able to fight strong opponents . Ye Xinglan agreed nearly instantly, causing Sheng Feilong to sigh; This girl really was a battle addict!

"The cla.s.s president sure is confident, huh?" someone interjected from the side . Sheng Feilong turned to see a young woman looking at Tang Wulin dismissively . She was quite good looking, even compared to Xu Xiaoyan and Ye Xinglan who stood near her, but her face was full of arrogance . She and Tang Wulin started their own little war of words, causing Sheng Feilong to frown . Not only was this girl arrogant to the limit, she also tried to manipulate the rest of the cla.s.s into antagonizing Tang Wulin and his friends .

Sheng Feilong turned to Yang Nianxia and Jian w.a.n.g and asked in a low voice .

"Who is that arrogant girl? And why is she so against Tang Wulin that she"s even trying to manipulate the rest of the cla.s.s?"

Unbeknownst to Sheng Feilong, who still had his eyes fixd on the war that was going on in the cla.s.sroom, Yang Nianxia frowned at his words, clearly displeased . Jian w.a.n.g answered Sheng Feilong with an more or less indifferent expression in a similarly low voice .

"She"s Zheng Yiran, one of the strongest in the cla.s.s . She doesn"t like Tang Wulin because his team defeated her when we were having mock battles to decide who would become the cla.s.s president . She"s so arrogant because she"s on the Genius Youth Ranking and from a famous family . "

Sheng Feilong frowned even more . He didn"t know what the Genius Youth Ranking was, but just the fact that this Zheng Yiran was flaunting with her clan"s name was already enough for him to dislike her . Moreover, she"s not only an arrogant princess, but also unforgiving after she was defeated .

After a bit more banter, Zheng Yiran left, grouping up with the handsome man, that was ignored by Ye Xinglan before, as well as two others before they walked over to Sheng Feilong"s desk; Or more precisely, to Yang Nianxia and Jian w.a.n.g . The handsome man introduced himself as Luo Guixing and it seemed like he was the leader of their group . The others introduced themselves as well, though one of them seemed quite cold and didn"t say much more than her name . They talked a while with Sheng Feilong with Luo Guixing taking the lead of the conversation .

Apparently, Jian w.a.n.g was a part of their team, as he was about as strong as Yang Nianxia, and everyone accepted him without much quarrel . The other five people were all rankers on the Genius Youth Ranking and all of them were incredibly proud of this . While this pride wasn"t anything bad, they all seemed to look down on Sheng Feilong and Jian w.a.n.g, who weren"t ranked on the list, even though Zhen Yiran was the only one to show it openly .

The topic of the compet.i.tion against the second grade of the Outer Court came up again and Jian w.a.n.g suggested to add Sheng Feilong to their team to make it a full seven man group . Luo Guixing thought about it for a moment before nodding with a friendly smile . Since Jian w.a.n.g talked about Sheng Feilong and his strength quite enthusiastically, he should be quite strong . Everyone trusted their leaders judgement although they didn"t think too much of Sheng Feilong . Only Zheng Yiran had to throw her weight around again .

"Since you"re Jian w.a.n.g"s friend, you should barely be decent enough to join our team . You"re a Control Type Soul Master, right? Then you should just a.s.sist Luo Guixing . "

Sheng Feilong frowned at her att.i.tude and Jian w.a.n.g seemed conflicted . He quickly looked at Sheng Feilong with a apologetic expression .

"Feilong, you should try to get to know Brother Luo . He"s really a powerful Control Type Soul Master . If you were to support him, no one could possibly get out of your control!"

Sheng Feilong understood that Jian w.a.n.g"s words were mostly meant to praise him and not Luo Guixing, but the smug look on Luo Guixing"s face paired with the well hidden arrogance and feeling of superiority in his eyes bothered Sheng Feilong .

Sheng Feilong smiled dryly and spoke to Luo Guixing in a eerily calm and uninterested tone .

"So you"re pretty powerful? As a Control Type Soul Master, I a.s.sume you focus on your Spirit Power? How high is it?"

Luo Guixing frowned lightly, clearly bothered by Sheng Feilong"s indifferent att.i.tude and the arrogance in his words . His smile vanished and he looked at Sheng Feilong with a dismissive expression .

"Pretty high . You don"t have to worry about it . I certainly won"t "hold you back" . As for the precise number, who cares, right?"

Sheng Feilong continued to look at him and then nodded, causing the smug look to reappear on Luo Guixing"s face . But a second later his face paled as he looked at Sheng Feilong"s eyes . They were still the same pale golden colour as before, but the spiritual pressure he radiated spiked instantly . Luo Guixing wasn"t able to turn his head away and could only try to block Sheng Feilong"s attack .

Sheng Feilong first tried a direct Spiritual Attack with a strength of about 1 . 000 points of Spirit Power and Luo Guixing took it quite well, causing Sheng Feilong to be surprised . A mischieveous smile appeared on his lips for a second and he instantly had the pressure spike to the equivalent of 3 . 000 Spirit Power, causing Luo Guixing"s pupils to constrict as he groaned miserably and take a step back before he fell down to one knee with a loud thud .

His teammembers were naturally the first ones to notice Luo Guixing predicament and stared daggers at Sheng Feilong, who then elevated the pressure on Luo Guixing with a shrug of his shoulders . By now, the whole cla.s.s was looking at them in shock, but Sheng Feilong didn"t mind them, stood up and turned to Jian w.a.n.g .

"Sorry, Brother w.a.n.g, but I don"t think this team is right for me . I wish you guys the best of luck, though!"

After saying that, he didn"t wait for an answer but instead chose to walk over to Xu Lizhi, Ye Xinglan and Tang Wulin"s group under the watchful eyes of the whole cla.s.s . He stood next to Xu Lizhi and nodded at the latter with a friendly smile before turning to Tang Wulin with the same smile .

"Cla.s.s President, sorry for the sudden question, but do you have s.p.a.ce for one more member?"

(A/N: Before you guys a.s.sume the worst again: No, Sheng Feilong will NOT become Tang Wulin"s sidekick! They will group up for this whole cla.s.s battle thingy before the plot changes, don"t worry . )
