You Naixin supported You Xi Wang to his room and helped him to his bed. You Xi Wang was exhausted to his core. The final spar with his grand-aunt really derived his reserves clean. He lay down on the bed with his eye half-close. You Naixin caressed his forehead gently and smiled. She loved this boy a lot. After all, no one in the family had the guts to pull off pranks on her, but You Xi Wang would tease her and pull pranks on her ever since he was a kid. She was a widow and as a virtuous lady did not choose to marry again. You Xi Wang was just like her own blood and bones to her.

She was about to get up and leave the room when You Xi Wang asked, "Granny, I have a question."

You Naixin replied in a soft voice, "Tell me."

You Xi Wang spoke, "How do I face big sis tomorrow? I do not want to hold back, but if I hurt her, then I would never forgive myself."

You Naixin chuckled and said, "You two kids sure are siblings. Even your sister asked me the same thing."

"What did you tell her?" You Xi Wang asked with curiosity."

"I told her to believe in you, you can face her. I, now, tell you the same thing. Believe in your sister that she can handle a greenhorn brat like you. Also, do not hold back." She teased the boy a bit.

You Xi Wang smiled slightly and his eyes closed, seemed as if all the burdens in his heart have been lifted. You Naixin stood up and left the room. As she was in front of the door, she looked up at the sky and thought to herself.

'Liangxin, Limao, your children are very strong.'

She let out a sigh and walked to her room with a faint smile on her face. She really wanted to witness how the duel between these siblings would be like. She came up with an idea and left to find some kids.

Every student in the Silica City Academy was now gathered in the central school stadium. This stadium was the place where important and big assemblies of the students were conducted under the supervision of the teachers and elders from various halls. Today was one such day. The event today was the commencement of the Battle fest internal selection. Every year had 10 classes, each class had 60 students each. There were seven grades of students. A total of 42,000 students, this staggering number was no less than an army troop, but since there was only one academy in every city. It was still digestible.

Before the selection tournament starts, the seeded players will have a bout for the designation of the captain of the team. The method of this contest was very simple, You Xi Wang was the captain recommended by the five elders of the school, so he would face the six strongest students of the senior years. Although he has passed the examination and is now a student of the third grade, while he was appointed as the captain he was still a first-grade student.

...

The stadium was designed in an oval shape, stands for the audience was build to witness the ceremonies alongside the edge of the stadium field. In the center of the field, there was a platform created with Lithical Iron. On the sides of this platform were some scratch marks, fist marks, footprints. These marks were left by some of the strongest students who graduated from the school. This platform was made of special material and if the marks left are a bit too shallow, then they would erase after ten days.

The principal of the academy was standing on the top of the platform. He was an elderly man and his face was filled with wrinkles. He was wearing a western suit, his gray hair was neatly combed. Although, he was old in age his eyes were as sharp as a sword out of its sheath. The students did not dare to look in his eyes. He spoke in a sonorous voice, "Dear students of the academy, I, William Trevor, called you here to witness the selection of our team captain in the upcoming Battle fest. I hope that you all share their spirit and support them as these fellow students of yours embark on the journey to win glory for them and you."

Thunderous applause rang out in the stadium. All the students stood up regarding William Trevor. It was said that William Trevor was a veteran of the defense force before he joined the academy as a battle hall instructor. He trained the battle hall disciples with an iron hand rule and led them all to the top of among the other city battle halls.

William Trevor spoke again, "All the students listed for the battle today, come forth on the platform. Let your fellow students see your spirit."

You Xi Wang waked up the stage. He was representing the first grade in this battle so the students ascended the platform is starting from the lowest grade to the highest. Next to You Xi Wang stood a brawny boy with brown hair. This boy was representing the second grade. His name was Marcus Langdon. He looked at You Xi Wang with arrogance and snorted. Our protagonist, however, ignored this behavior and mop the floor with his face in the battle.

Then came a Lolita. This girl had violet hair, her eyes were also violet, those her face was beautiful, but her figure was not that well developed. She had a smile on her face. This girl was called Misty Shay. Don't be deceived by that smiling face, there was a rumor that this girl was a sadist and however offended her in the third year would be seen bowing their heads when they see her after a few days. God knows how she did that.

Another fellow came up the stage this guy was a handsome boy, he looked like a book work with glasses on his nose. But the sword tied to his waist and the cold aura emitted by him made people think twice. This boy was called Jack, nobody knew his last name, and he wasn't interested in telling them as well. He was representative of the fourth grade. His sword was said to be the swiftest and sharpest in the whole school.

The representatives of the fifth and sixth year were two brothers. They were called Orion and Aries. They belonged to the Paul family. Elder Cousins of Neo Paul. They both had star-like eyes. It was said that they were blessed by the constellations they were born in.

You Zhichi ascended the platform. I guess there is no need for me to describe how good she looks. The crowd looked at her and was mesmerized. The participants were standing in a circle. So You Zhichi stood on the right side of You Xi Wang facing outwards, to the audience. The audience cheered for their favorites. You Xi Wang stood there with a calm face.

Aries looked at You Zhichi and he could help but imagine some obscene things. But just as he was drawing in fictional a cold gaze and killing intent broke his train of thoughts. This killing intent was emitting from You Xi Wang, who was looking at him with a calm face. His eyes were so cold that Aries felt chill rising from his spine. You Xi Wang spoke, "Do you want to fight before the principal announces?"

Everyone was shocked to see this You Zhichi bitterly smiled and said, "Gougou, don't make trouble"

You Xi Wang snorted and the killing intent vanished. William Trevor noticed this and spoke, "Student You Xi Wang before we all start. Explain to me why did you think about killing a fellow student? Do you know that this incident is enough to expel you from school?"

You Zhichi was about to explain, but You Xi Wang beat her to it.

"If the heavens looked at my sister with obscene thoughts, I will slay the heavens, let alone this guy. I know you would want proof. I swear on my blood that if this guy did not reek of lust, I will die right now." You Xi Wang bit his finger and a drop of blood flew up in the air. The drop shone brightly, showing the completion of the oath. William Trevor nodded just as he was about to turn around he saw You Xi Wang looking into his eyes calmly.

He was surprised that even if he did not emit his aura, all the students would try to avoid his gaze. You Xi Wang stood with his hand behind the back, high head, and straight back. He was like a spear standing against the heavens. William was surprised and nodded in approval. This young man was not simple.

William spoke in a sonorous voice, "Student You Xi Wang will face all the other six students back to back. The senior year students can even go against him altogether should they want to."

His words set off a chain of murmurs around the stadium. You Xi Wang's friends, however, were calm in the crowd. Neo spoke, "I bet Aries will lose at least a dozen teeth in this battle."

Fenny laughed and said, "Oye, don't you look down on my baby Wang. Your cousin will lose his ribs and might even go to spend a day in the hospital."

Yuki laughed at this, she said, "He will lose his dignity. How dare he think bad about Big Sis Zhichi? If you poke the reverse scale of a dragon, then you better be ready for the retribution."

William spoke, "I would like to inform the contenders now. You are prohibited from abolishing dantian, killing. If you are found to be violating the rules then you will be punished according to the Council's penal code. Also, if anyone seeks revenge for the defeat they face in this ring outside. They will be hunted down by all the forces."

The students nodded and parted into two groups. You Xi Wang stood on one side of the platform while the other six stood opposite him. William Trevor spoke, "The battle begins."
