Chapter 309

Selling Oneself
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

You XiaoMo suffered a huge mental attack with Ling Xiao’s words.

He immediately guessed the reason for Ling Xiao’s fabrication after hearing that sentence. Ling Xiao probably did not want to let others think that he had easily defeated Tang MengCheng, so he deliberately engaged in such an action, causing him to really think that Ling Xiao had some secret move called Lightning Ace.

Ling Xiao was amused by You XiaoMo’s resentful expression and just when he wanted to say something, an exclamation of pleasant surprise sounded from behind him.

“Fellow You, Fellow Ling, you’re really here.”

The two turned towards the direction of the voice at the same time and saw a familiar person quickly walking toward them. This person was none other than the one who pulled some strings for You XiaoMo at the entry assessment – Gao Yang.

You XiaoMo had thought of going over to look for Gao Yang ever since he rose to Ward A. However he did not know where Gao Yang was staying, and with the latter’s personality, he was probably at the Cultivation Center. It would have been a little troublesome to find him so he put the matter on hold. Who would have thought that You XiaoMo would meet him here?

You XiaoMo happily cried out, “Gao-dage, it’s been a long time since we last met!”

Gao Yang walked over and nodded to Ling Xiao, “It’s really been a long time. It’s a pity that I couldn’t personally welcome you guys when you rose to Ward A.”

You XiaoMo replied, “Gao-dage was at the Cultivation Center right? Then it couldn’t be helped. And it doesn’t matter whether you could welcome us or not, it’ll be okay if we have an chance to meet somewhere down the line.”

Gao Yang explained, “I wasn’t busy with cultivation. At that time I had received a task which was a little difficult, so I spent a lot of time on it. But it’s finally completed now.”

When he finished speaking, he stared at Ling Xiao and gave him a look-over.

Gao Yang was pleasantly surprised, “Fellow Ling, I didn’t realize you were this strong, congratulations. We should find an opportunity to swap pointers with each other.”

Ling Xiao glanced at Gao Yang’s level and replied, “If there’s an opportunity.”

You XiaoMo curiously asked, “Gao-dage, how high is your current level now? What’s your ranking on the top hundred list?” As the disciple of the Vice-Principal, Gao Yang’s strength should be quite high.

Gao Yang gave a modest smile, “I’m only at the level of a four star Spiritual Realm, ranking fifth on the top hundred list, slightly behind BaiLi TianYi and the rest. They’re all geniuses and are much stronger than me.”

You XiaoMo patted his shoulder, “Gao-dage, you’re already very strong. I believe that you’ll be stronger than them in no time.”

Gao Yang burst into laughter, “Then I’ll just have to thank you for your kind words.”

Ling Xiao looked at the hand You XiaoMo put on Gao Yang’s shoulder, and faintly narrowed his eyes.

You XiaoMo suddenly felt as if a hole was burned into the back of his hand. Turning his head, he saw Ling Xiao staring at his hand without blinking. The sight was so scary that it made him immediately retract his hand.

Gao Yang discovered this and asked, “What happened?”

You XiaoMo embarrassedly smiled, “Nothing, I was just bitten by a mosquito.”
