Boom, Boom… The ground beneath the arena was shaking again. It was Yu Sheng who was stepping forward slowly.

"What is he doing?" People were looking at Yu Sheng and wondering whether these two young men were going to defy the authority of the academy.

The final decision of the Fall Quarter Exam was being announced, and the decision had been made by two masters who were Hall Directors. It definitely could not be easily overridden. How insane was it that they were trying to make the masters change their minds?

"Yu Sheng, get back here." Ye Futian could feel Yu Sheng's anger, and somewhat believed he was going to do something horrible. He tried to yell and stop him, but this time it did not work.

The List of Excellence was still being announced, but Yu Sheng entered the middle of the arena and interrupted the announcement. Many of the masters looked mad because of the fuss Ye Futian had already made, which had brought shame to the academy. The masters did not hold him responsible only because they thought he was still young, and that it was a mistake. However, Yu Sheng was now right in the middle of the arena, about to make an even bigger one.

"Yu Sheng, back off," Leng Qingfeng, the Cabinet Master of the Hall of Swordsmen commanded him. He had planned to list Yu Sheng as the champion of the debate, but Shi Zhong had insisted that Murong Qiu should get first place. He had given in because he had not wanted to make his working relationship with Shi Zhong awkward over such minor issues. But these two young men were just stubborn.

"I want to challenge Murong Qiu," Yu Sheng said, staring at Leng Qingfeng.

"How dare you say that. The Fall Quarter Exam is over. There is no way you can change the results, especially in such a rude manner. You better respect the rules of this academy and back off now," Shi Zhong yelled at Yu Sheng as he stood up.

Yu Sheng looked up to the masters of the academy. There was an aura of fury coming from his body that made the air dense. Ye Futian could feel something dangerous coming from the furious body of Yu Sheng and began yelling at him even louder, "Yu Sheng, seriously; come back here!"

His godfather had told him that no matter what happened, no one should ever witness the Yu Sheng's true talent.

"No!" Yu Sheng shrieked horrifyingly. There was now a scary stream of energy around his body. The power formed a dark golden glow that armored Yu Sheng in a suit that almost looked demonic. Some of the masters began to take this seriously. Their gazes sharpened. They were staring right at Yu Sheng and could foresee the looming danger.

"No I'm mad. Come back!" Ye Futian also sounded truly angry. He was trying to stop the imminent danger by threatening him. Yu Sheng seemed to wake up hearing his voice. His blood-red pupils trembled, and the dark energy around his body was gone. He looked back at Ye Futian.

Yu Sheng's father had told him that he should never allow anyone to stomp on Ye Futian's pride. Whenever a violation happened, he was supposed to stand up for Ye Futian with everything he had.

"Hey, big boy, you know what? Just forget about it; time will show that we are right." The voice of Ye Futian turned gentle and soft. It was Yu Sheng who had been trying to persuade him before; now, he was trying to talk some sense into Yu Sheng. Even though Yu Sheng was still stubborn, he walked away as he was told. This gesture relieved the tension on the faces of the masters.

However, the looks on people's faces in reaction to these two had become even weirder. These guys had a complicated relationship. They looked towards the perfect girl, Hua Jieyu, and began to worry about this girl's future.
