Chapter 1098

(Unedited)



Hou Anqing has not expected that the young man would have such fast reflexes. In the class at that time, only a few have seen her fast attack. But she did not even know what happened to that writing stone which seem to have disappeared in thin air.

So while walking ahead, her expression is slightly changing into slight excitement as her curiosity and interest were piqued by the boy.

The two walked out of the class and down the hallway. This has caused a slight commotion inside the classroom.

Qing Joming who seems to suddenly have an idea of what happened showed a pang of slight guilt in his heart. He knew that it was Xin Ja who save him from getting frozen. As he looks at the bone rune which hit his face from Xin Ja's direction and the glowing field surrounding him, he knew that it was all because his friend helped him out.

He was so foolish that he began to regret what he has just done a while ago.

"But I could not help it… Teacher Anqing is far too beautiful. I mean… that is a true lady." He thought as he recalled her mature figure and her face.

But then upon thinking that Xin Ja was taken by the teacher, his conscience immediately haunts him.

"No… this is my fault… Xin Ja should not suffer because of me." Qing Joming said.

But before he could say anything else, someone from the front sarcastically said.

"That's what you get for being a busybody… I don't know what happened, but that guy truly desired what he would get from teacher Hou Anqing."

The voice came from Go Fang who is giving Qing Joming a scornful look.

"Shut up!" Qing Joming berated as he stood up in anger.

When the two were about to clash, a student suddenly stood up.

"The two of you… sit down…" it was a female student wearing a pair of silver-framed spectacle.

She looks like she is someone who likes to study a lot, but her aura which is at the 2nd level made Qing Joming and Go Fang stop their action.

"You two are but new in the class and you have the audacity to cause trouble? I advise you to be sensible or else…" she added with a glare.

Everyone turned silent upon hearing her words. It seems that the whole class is actually afraid of her especially the old students.



At this time, Xin Ja is a bit worried as he followed behind the beautiful teacher. When they pass by a classroom, Xin Ja could notice many eyes glued on him. Then with his sensitive hearing, he would hear them say.

"Who is that student? Did he just make Teacher Anqing angry? Poor guy…"

"Hah… I think he is another of those fools who ogled at Teacher Anqing or say some words… what a stupid fellow, he deserves what he got."

"That's a freshman, right? Haha… Those guys are always looking for their deaths…"

"As if you were not like that before. I remember you being enclosed in ice by her for a whole hour. Luckily there is a potion to save you, if not then you would have already died… Haha…"

After hearing those words, the heart of Xin Ja began to throb really fast in anxiousness. He did not know what wrong he did and did not want to suffer such punishments.

Soon the two of them arrive in front of a door.

Knock! Knock!

Teacher Anqing knocks on the door and waited.

Soon a deep man's voice called them from inside.

When the two entered, Xin Ja saw a burly man with broad shoulders. His body is well-built that one could mistake him for a large bull.

"Ah… Daughter, you're here, come in… come in…" the man suddenly said after seeing Teacher Anqing.

Xin Ja's jaw almost fell to the ground upon realizing this. But he could not get the idea of how his teacher is this man's daughter. From what he could see, the man is just middle-aged and Xin Ja has already known from some of the students in class that his teacher is actually in her 40s. Plus Teacher Hou Anqing is really a beauty, how could she be this man's daughter?

So he is a bit baffled about this?

"General Hou… please. In school, you should call me by my profession." Teacher Anqing said with a stern gaze towards her father.

"Haha… You silly girl. No matter how old you get, you'll always be my only darling little girl…" General Hou said with a chuckle.

"You…" Hou Anqing could not say anything to this father of hers.

If it is not for this young man's talent, she would not really approach her father about this.

"Humph… I'm just here to say that, I have found you another defender." She said as she turns around and walks to the door.

"Student Xin Ja, you stay here. The general is going to talk to you about something." She said as she walks out of the door.

Upon seeing his daughter walking out, the expression of the general showed helplessness.

"That daughter of mine is something, right?" he said with a wink.

Xin Ja felt a bit uncomfortable at this time while inside the office.

"I am General Hou Yuan, and your teacher Anqing is my only daughter. And who might you be young lad?" the general asked as he stood up and take a seat on the sofa.

He then gestured for Xin Ja to sit on the opposite side of the sofa.

"I… I am Xin Ja. A… a freshman." Xin Ja introduced.

"Hmm… Good… good. Oh… Xin… Do you know Xin Jong?" General Hou suddenly asked as he thought of something.

"Ah… Yes… Xin Jong is my father."

When General Hou heard about this, his eyes went wide in disbelief. Then he looks at Xin Ja scrutinizing him from his head to toe.

"Are you sure? I heard that Xin Jong's son is… you know… not… normal. Unlike you… who… seems to be a fine-looking young man." General Hou said with a hint of awkwardness in his tone.

"A defender eh…" General Hou muttered.

He then looks at Xin Ja and nodded his head.

"Alright, let's see what you got! Come with me lad…" he said as he drags Xin Ja to the fields.



Ogden Academy training ground

The sun is shining high up in the sky and at the moment, many students are currently on the grassy ground talking in groups.

Each of them is wearing some kind of special breastplate and helmet which made them look like ordinary soldiers on the battlefield.

Then suddenly from the front, a man who is currently instructing a student called out.

"Attention!" he shouted.

With his shout, the students began to scramble on the ground. Then immediately they all fall in line.

"General Hou, sir!" the man shouted.

"Be at ease…" Hou Yuan said with a proud smile on his face.

He could tell that the students are already showing a semblance of being in the army. He could not wait for the day for these pups to go on the battlefield and contribute to the kingdom.

"Captain Gong Xijong… How are we doing today?"

"We are in top condition general. So far, the improvement of the whole team is getting better…"

"Hmm… I hope so… I don't want to place last again in the next Inter School War Games." General Hou said with a frown.

"Don't worry general… we have a few new recruits who, I can assure you, will perform better." Captain Gong said with confidence.

"Alright… Well, my daughter told me that this guy here can be a defender. I want to see what he got." General Hou said while gesturing his hand to Xin Ja behind him.

"Sir? He… he is a freshman, right? And… isn't he a bit small?" Captain Gong said with a frown.

Well, out of all the students in the field Xin Ja's height would surely be considered as small. In fact, the smallest in the team right now is a petite-looking girl at around 1.79 meters in height.

So judging from this, one could say that Xin Ja would be the smallest person in the field right now.

"Sigh… I do not care about his height. My daughter said that he could become a defender, so… get on with it. Explain to him the rules of the game…" General Hou said with a frown.

"Yes sir!"

Captain Gong looks at Xin Ja with hesitation. He did not even ask his name when he stood in front of him.

"Kid… here is what you have to do. As a defender, you have to defend your charge and yourself at all costs… This means, that you should be proficient in defensive runes. You can only use certified defensive rune and none else. Got it?" Captain Gong said and did not explain any further.

"Now, let's try this… You… you… and you… come here!" Captain Gong called three students.

The three did not dilly dally and quickly stood in front of the captain. He then explains to them what they will be doing.

After hearing it, the expression of the three turned a bit conflicted.

How could they not? The little guy looks unreliable.

But they could not turn down this task from the captain.. So they could only grit their teeth and hope that the small guy could pull through.
