Chapter 862: Ugly Yet Flirtatious

Gongsun Shu was completely surprised by the lightning!

Gongsun Shu’s classmates and the onlookers were all startled by the sudden bolt of lightning!

However!

When they heard what ’Lei Xiaoming’ said!

They all opened their mouths wide, their heads slowly turning mechanically towards ’Lei Xiaoming’, as if perfectly embodying the meaning of shock.

What?

Lei Xiaoming, the Royal City’s number one waste, who was detected to have no cultivation talent or Thunder System Totem at birth.

Was awakened by a slap from Gongsun Shu?

Everyone ignored the fact that Ye Xiu’s voice of surprise was different from Lei Xiaoming’s voice, as they were all shocked by Lei Xiaoming’s sudden awakening of the Thunder System Totem.

Of course, Gongsun Shu really was scorched inside and out!

"You, you, you, you truly awakened the Thunder System Totem?"

Gongsun Shu asked in shock, smoke still rising from his mouth as he spoke.

Crack!

Another bolt of thunder descended from the sky, striking Gongsun Shu on his head!

Got it!

Now everyone believed it!

Lei Xiaoming was indeed awakened by a slap from Gongsun Shu!

However!

Why was Lei Xiaoming’s awakening pose so unique?

"Is the Royal City’s number one waste going to rise?"

"It’s unbelievable, hard to believe, he’s been a waste for 20 years, and now he has suddenly awakened superbly!"

"From today onwards, Lei Xiaoming is no longer a waste!"

"Ever since the Lei Family’s disaster, the Eternal Kingdom has had no Thunder System Totem, and today Lei Xiaoming’s awakening is sure to shake the world."

"The Thunder System Totem has the strongest attack power and damage among all Totems, Lei Xiaoming’s future is unpredictable."

The onlookers began to stir noisily.

Ye Xiu was feeling a bit anxious, as he really had no other option; he couldn’t just not fight back after being hit, it’s not in his nature.

But retaliating as ’Lei Xiaoming’ wouldn’t win against Gongsun Shu, and it wouldn’t fit Lei Xiaoming’s character, which would raise many suspicions and speculations.

In desperation!

Ye Xiu thought of the awakening trick!

Although unbelievable!

Historically, there have been cases in the history of the Eternal Kingdom where lower-class people suddenly awakened.

So ’Lei Xiaoming’ suddenly awakening should be acceptable to the people of the Royal City, right?

"Lei Xiaoming, have you experienced any physical changes after your awakening?"

Someone asked.

The momentarily electrified Gongsun Shu, the classmates, and all the onlookers looked curiously at Ye Xiu.

After all, after being a waste for 20 years, suddenly awakening would surely bring some physical changes.

"Hmm..."

Ye Xiu pretended to ponder for three seconds, then suddenly waved his hand!

"Crack!"

A bolt of thunder struck down from the sky, hitting Gongsun Shu on the head.

Hiss!

Seeing this, everyone gasped!

Your change is that you’re addicted to striking Gongsun Shu?

And what did it mean when it took you three seconds to strike Gongsun Shu, was it a skill timer?

Everyone was speechless!

"Lei Xiaoming, are you doing it on purpose?" Gongsun Shu shouted in anger.

Ye Xiu shrugged and said nothing, speaking would reveal everything.

"You bastard, are you asking for death?"

Gongsun Shu furiously attacked, wanting to salvage his dignity by beating Lei Xiaoming.

But he was stopped by a classmate: "Gongsun Shu, I advise you to go home and consult the elders of the Gongsun Family before deciding whether to continue opposing Lei Xiaoming."

The meaning was subtle, yet obvious!

As the only Thunder System Totem Inheritor of the Eternal Kingdom, Lei Xiaoming holds the status of a national treasure.

No one knows the potential of Lei Xiaoming;

No one knows the King’s attitude towards the awakened Lei Xiaoming;

So it’s very unwise to rashly oppose the awakened Lei Xiaoming now.

"Let’s go!"

Gongsun Shu understood this logic, glared angrily at Ye Xiu, and left in a huff.

The classmates quickly followed, but as they left, the way they looked at ’Lei Xiaoming’ had changed from mockery and ridicule to deep apprehension.

Seeing them leave, the onlookers also quickly dispersed, eager to spread the news of the Royal City’s number one waste awakening.

This was the biggest news in the Royal City!

"Originally I wanted to keep a low profile, but seeing the momentum, it seems I’m going to be famous now, although no one should suspect I’m a counterfeit Lei Xiaoming!"

Ye Xiu chuckled bitterly, put on a mask, and hurriedly walked towards Yunluo Academy.

He needed to quickly hide Lei Xiaoming so that he could continue using Lei Xiaoming’s identity.

Otherwise, two Lei Xiaomings would definitely attract attention from those with ulterior motives!

...

Yunluo Academy is the best university in the Eternal Kingdom.

However, unlike other prestigious schools around the world, Yunluo Academy not only teaches various professional knowledge but also offers cultivation courses.

When Ye Xiu arrived at the library, he saw a large crowd gathered at the entrance.

"Lei Xiaoming really has no sense, a waste like him dared to write a love letter to Zhuge Xiaoxiao."

"A toad wanting to eat swan meat!"

"Even a waste has the right to choose love, but Lei Xiaoming’s love letter made Zhuge Xiaoxiao feel insulted, so she came with others to teach him a lesson."

Ye Xiu moved to the back of the crowd and listened for a while, understanding why there was a crowd gathered here.

Apparently, Lei Xiaoming wrote a love letter to someone named Zhuge Xiaoxiao, and Zhuge Xiaoxiao had come to the library to confront him.

Ye Xiu was speechless, thinking wasn’t Lei Xiaoming supposed to be insecure?

Wasn’t he introverted?

Wasn’t he supposed to have social anxiety?

Yet he managed to do something like write a love letter!

This was truly like a toad sleeping with a frog, playing beyond his means!

"Lei Xiaoming, what do you mean by this?"

At this moment, inside the circle of people, Ye Xiu saw a stunning woman with superior looks and body, exuding an extraordinary aura, but with an extremely arrogant air, angrily asking Lei Xiaoming.

Lei Xiaoming, with his head down, twisted the hem of his clothes in his hands, remaining silent.

Seeing Lei Xiaoming’s demeanor, Ye Xiu finally understood why Gongsun Shu, when seeing this counterfeit Lei Xiaoming, found him odd.

The real Lei Xiaoming was a coward, couldn’t stand up straight in a fight, and carried an aura of a loser unconsciously.

"I am talking to you!"

Zhuge Xiaoxiao slapped Lei Xiaoming’s face angrily and said,

"You, the Royal City’s number one waste, no, the Eternal Kingdom’s number one waste, an idiot, a fool, a moron, someone like you writing me a love letter is an insult to me. Tell me, who put you up to this?"

Ye Xiu noticed that even after being hit and scolded, Lei Xiaoming kept his head down and remained silent, much like himself ten years ago.

Back then when he wished for things, was beaten, was cursed, was humiliated, he didn’t dare utter a word.

"Answer me!"

Zhuge Xiaoxiao kicked Lei Xiaoming to the ground, shouting angrily.

Lei Xiaoming fell flat on his back, but he didn’t get up, instead curled up on the ground holding his legs.

He meekly said, "No one put me up to it!"

"What?" Zhuge Xiaoxiao became even more furious: "So it means you deliberately wrote me a love letter to insult me?"

Lei Xiaoming muttered, "I, I didn’t, I, I truly like you."

Wow!

The crowd was in an uproar!

Not only did Lei Xiaoming write a love letter to Zhuge Xiaoxiao, he even confessed to her in public!

"Ahhh, I’m going to explode with anger..."

Zhuge Xiaoxiao was momentarily stunned, then flew into a rage, kicking Lei Xiaoming furiously while cursing,

"Why don’t you go and look at yourself in the mirror? You, without martial talent, without inherited special abilities, without inherited Totems, and not even a background, dare to like me? What right do you have to like me? Your affection is an insult to me; if this gets out, and everyone in the country knows you like me, how am I supposed to face them..."
