Chapter 234 Sheng Xiao: This Underclassman Is Amazing
Sheng Xiao walked out of the bathroom after showering. He saw his father still standing in the bedroom with a puzzled look on his face. He raised the towel with one hand to wipe his wet hair and asked Sheng Lingfeng, “Father, is something wrong?”
Sheng Lingfeng said irritably, “I’m thinking about you and Yu Huang.”
“Yu Huang and I?” Sheng Xiao was stunned. He asked, “What can happen between us?” He did not know Yu Huang. Why did his father link him to Yu Huang? Sheng Lingfeng misunderstood his words and thought that there was no conflict between Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang.
He was even more puzzled. “If there’s nothing between you and Yu Huang, why won’t you agree to the engagement? Previously, you even called your mother personally and asked her to go to the Yu Huang family to propose marriage. How long has it been? Why did you change your mind again? Did you and Yu Huang really not have any conflicts?”
Sheng Xiao’s expression became strange.
Sheng Xiao suddenly realized that something big must have happened in the past four years.
But he had lost four years of his memory.
Sheng Xiao did not wipe his hair anymore. He walked to the sofa and sat down. He looked at Sheng Lingfeng strangely, as if he was thinking about something. The change in his gaze was hard to read.
Seeing him like this, Sheng Lingfeng was even more stunned than him. “What’s wrong?”
Sheng Xiao clenched the towel in his hand tightly and said thoughtfully, “Yu Huang… is the actress my mother likes. Are we together?”
“What are you talking about?” Sheng Lingfeng looked at Sheng Xiao suspiciously. He asked worriedly, “Xiao’er, what’s wrong?”
Sheng Xiao thought about it for a moment and told Sheng Lingfeng about his current situation. He said, “Father, when I woke up at the top of the Central Pagoda, I realized that I had lost four years of my memory.”
Sheng Lingfeng suddenly stood up. “You lost your memory?” He walked to Sheng Xiao and stared at him for a moment. Then, he said, “What happened? Tell me clearly.”
Sheng Xiao nodded and told Sheng Lingfeng everything that had happened since he woke up on the top floor.
“So, your memories are still on the day you participated in the Skysplit Tower’s tower challenge ceremony at the Divine Realm Academy? Are your memories of these four years completely incomplete?”
“Yes.”
Sheng Xiao looked at the wound on his left arm again. He said, “I was seriously injured when Donor found me. But I don’t remember who injured me. I’m sure that I was injured on the top floor.”
Sheng Lingfeng’s expression instantly became grave. “It seems that the Central Pagoda is indeed not safe.”
Sheng Xiao asked Sheng Lingfeng, “Father, were you like us when you challenged the Central Pagoda?”
Sheng Lingfeng said, “It is said that every person encounters a different difficulty in the Central Pagoda. The difficult problem randomly appears according to the participant’s potential. This is also why after we challenge the Central Pagoda, we are unable to provide any information for the newcomers.”
“I see.”
Sheng Xiao suddenly thought of something and asked his father, “According to you, I’ve been dating for the past four years?”
“Yes!” After knowing that Sheng Xiao had forgotten everything that had happened in the past four years, Sheng Lingfeng was worried that his son’s amnesia would cause an irredeemable scene. So, he quickly told Sheng Xiao everything that he knew.
“Many things have happened to you in the past four years. The most important thing is that you fell in love. The other party’s name is Yu Huang…”
“I know her. My mother likes her the most.” Sheng Xiao asked curiously, “How did I know her? Do I really like her?”
Sheng Lingfeng smiled ambiguously and said, “You don’t just like her. You’re smitten with her.”
Seeing that Sheng Xiao seemed unfazed, Sheng Lingfeng told him, “In order to help her awaken her beast form, you went to the Black Dome alone to snatch the Purifying Spirit Sacred Pearl. After she got into the Divine Realm Academy and got together with you, a girl from the lower grades spread the rumor that you had an improper relationship with her. In order to protect her reputation, you publicly challenged a girl from the third grade and forced her to kowtow and apologize. In the end, she was expelled.”
“Oh, and I heard that you gave her all your possessions when you confessed to her…”
The more he listened, the stranger Sheng Xiao’s expression became.
It turned out that he was like this after falling in love.
“How did we meet?” Sheng Xiao could not help but feel anxious when he could not remember anything about his ‘girlfriend’.
Sheng Lingfeng shook his head. “I’m not sure about that. However, you two only got together after her face was disfigured and Xuanyuan Jing broke off the engagement.” Huh?
The other party was engaged to Xuanyuan Jing?
“Is her eyesight bad? Why was she engaged to that brat Xuanyuan Jing?” In Sheng Xiao’s impression, Xuanyuan Jing was very ordinary and was far from being comparable to Xuanyuan Chen of the Xuanyuan Clan.
His girlfriend did not seem to have good eyesight.
Sheng Lingfeng smiled. “You only noticed that she was engaged to Xuanyuan Jing. Why didn’t you notice that she was disfigured?” Sheng Xiao loved Yu Huang very much. But after all, that was before Sheng Xiao lost his memory. Sheng Lingfeng was not sure how Sheng Xiao felt about Yu Huang after he lost his memory.
Sheng Xiao looked at his father helplessly. He said, “Father, since I’ve acknowledged her as my girlfriend, she must have some aspect that is very attractive to me. Her sparkle must be more attractive than her appearance.”
Sheng Xiao had only lost his memory. He had not become a fool. He could understand his feelings.
Hearing that, Sheng Lingfeng was relieved. “Go back to the academy tomorrow and have a good chat with Yu Huang. That child is really quite nice.”
“I understand.”
Sheng Lingfeng left the room and went back to his room to call Mrs. Sheng.
Sheng Xiao sat on the sofa with his wet hair. He felt incredulous at the thought of having a girlfriend he loved deeply.
He actually fell in love in his twenties.
Sheng Xiao was tired today. He got up and walked to the bed. When he passed by the trash can and saw the stone-patterned collar pin, he stopped in his tracks.
This was indeed not something he liked, but it was placed on his chest by him. Clearly, he valued this thing highly.
Could this be a gift from his girlfriend?
Sheng Xiao picked it up immediately.
Sheng Xiao did not sleep well that night.
The next morning, after he and his father bade farewell, he returned to the Divine Realm Academy.
He returned a few days later than the agreed time. When he returned, the academy’s group arena was almost over. This day was coincidentally the expert rankings competition.
Sheng Xiao appeared in the audience stands in the central square quietly. He appeared beside Professor Mu and the dean.
The dean narrowed his eyes when he saw him. “Congratulations, you’re the only one who succeeded in passing the Central Pagoda.” The dean did not know about Sheng Xiao’s memory loss.
Sheng Xiao chatted with the dean for a while and looked at the competition field below.
Coincidentally, below, Yu Huang was fighting a senior from Class A of the seventh grade. That senior was called Cai Junqing. He had been on the Expert Roll for two years and had just risen from the 88th to the 87th place this morning
He was at the early stage of the Master Realm and should be filled with confidence. However, he had watched the battle between Yu Huang and Xuanyuan Jing last year. At that time, Yu Huang was able to rely on her intermediate stage Scholar cultivation level to defeat Xuanyuan Jing, who was at the peak of the late stage of the Scholar Realm. After more than half a year, who knew how much stronger Yu Huang’s combat strength had become?
Thus, when he was challenged by Yu Huang, he didn’t dare let his guard down for even a moment.
Senior Cai’s beast form was a large white shark. The moment he summoned his beast form, he saw a strange look flash across Yu Huang’s eyes.
Seeing that, Senior Cai smiled bitterly. He said, “My beast form is a big white shark, not a Rotating Tooth Shark. We should have a friendly fight. Don’t take your anger out on
me.”
Xuanyuan Jing’s beast form was a Rotating Tooth Shark. Senior Cai was afraid that Yu Huang would vent her anger on him because he had a shark beast form, like Xuanyuan
Jing.
Yu Huang didn’t know how to react when she heard this.
She saw that Senior Cai was handsome and short, so she was shocked that he could actually awaken the powerful beast form of a Great White Shark.
Yu Huang waved her hand and said, “Senior Cai, please enlighten me!”
Beast Tamers in the shark form generally cultivated water-elemental strength cultivation techniques, and Senior Cai was no exception. He cultivated the Grade 3 Witch-level cultivation technique, the Furious Sea cultivation technique.
Masters could fight in the sky. As soon as the battle started, Senior Cai flew into the sky and stood on the back of his Great White Shark. Senior Cai mobilized all the spirit energy in his body and formed a seal with his hand as he roared, “Sea God’s Fury!”
There were a total of fifty moves in the Furious Sea Technique. Sea God’s Fury was the tenth move, and it was the strongest move that Senior Cai could currently use.
From the looks of it, Senior Cai wanted to end the battle quickly and decide the winner with one move.
Senior Cai shouted and a wave suddenly stirred in the vast sea in the distance. Waves of seawater were swept into the sky by the tornado and interweaved with the dark clouds in the sky as they headed for the central square. Seeing this, the students on the stands flew up and hid in the forest behind them because they were afraid that they would be swallowed by the sea.
Yu Huang stared at the seawater that was rushing over and felt the boundless attack power in the seawater. Her beautiful face fell. Without any hesitation, she immediately summoned Xuan Yu and the Psychic Sphere.
Xuan Yu became a bow, and the Psychic Sphere turned into a fan-shaped arrow.
“Blazing Moon Art!”
Yu Huang was forced to utilize the Blazing Moon Art.
When the bow and arrow merged, Sheng Xiao could clearly feel the heat in the air. He looked up at the scorching sun above his head and found that all the sunlight was absorbed by the burning bow in Yu Huang’s hand. Sheng Xiao was shocked.
He looked at Yu Huang in admiration and murmured softly, “When did our academy have such a powerful student? Her talent and strength is really shocking.”
She was only in the late-stage of the Scholar realm. What would happen when she broke through to the Master realm and Supreme Master realm? Sheng Xiao was not even sure if he could defeat her if they were of the same cultivation level.
The dean suddenly looked at him strangely.
Sheng Xiao noticed the dean’s gaze and his expression became serious. He quickly asked, “What’s wrong, dean?”
He pointed at Yu Huang and asked Sheng Xiao, “Don’t you know who that junior is?”
