Yin & Yang Pleasures of Cultivation

Chapter 37: Casual Bold Exchange

Truly, even as Darcel and Aniela experienced rapid bouts of growths, leading them to trump their fellow generation. They still can't forget just how many monstrous powerhouses that can kill them with a thought.

Their minds had reinforced this idea when the Vice Principal's mysterious energy instantly wrapped them up. Her power...it indeed lived up to her majestic grand aura.

Neither Darcel nor Aniela could move once in her energy, yet it wasn't so much of a suffocating power. Though before they had time to delve their senses into her power, the two abruptly felt a dramatic shift in the air!

It was like getting sucked in at high velocity through a tornado! Their vision was clouded by the Vice Principal's mysterious grey energy, so the duo had no idea where they were going.

Although, this sudden dramatic pull only lasted for a second. When their eyes blinked and re-opened again, their scenery changed. Now the two were in a classical design office.

There were shelves, file cabinets, and various assortments of books and scrolls in this place. The place was also spacious, allowing room for several people to come and lounge around in here.

But, there was just something about the color of this office.

As far as the duo were concerned, this Zakira Academy loves the shade of blue and purple, constructing unique, elegantly designed mixes of colors with them.

Yet this Vice Principal office.the blue here was enchantingly radiant. It held this cooling vibe about it that simply will capture your eyes to be drawn into its light pitch.

And at the back center of the room was a luxurious design desk in the same enchanting blue color. Sitting behind the desk was the average yet grand in stature Vice-Principal.

Frankly, both Darcel and Aniela had some queer ideas about this room. For someone as average looking as the Vice Principal was, it seemed her taste in design is quite mystical.

Although they would never say this out loud to her face.

Even with this seemingly less strict attitude she has, it's still best to watch their boundaries. Before the duo could say anything, though, the Vice Principal had immediately opened her mouth.

"You kids were trying to perceive me anytime I was following you, weren't you?" Her voice wasn't of an accusing tone but more of a slight curiosity about their senses.

Ever since the day Teacher Zala introduced their tests and explained the result of Darcel and Aniela's first battle, her gut feeling piqued about them.

After all, in her long history, not many can achieve perfect marks on the written test.

That was borderline genius territory!

And her interest in the duo was reinforced quite quickly from one act. On the day the two went out for the goblin cave, she precisely saw the very slight pause in their steps when they left the mission center.

Nobody else noticed it, not even the Elder there caught on to it. But the Vice Principal clearly perceived the duo trying to sense something beyond the people in the mission center.

Giving the duo the benefit of the doubt, the Vice Principal then decided to follow to see if that slight pause wasn't just a fluke.

And, well?

Everything just snowballs about the duo as soon as they started their mission.

Long before they had even fought against Giel and Luka, the Vice Principal was soon going to contact them through Teacher Zala for another test. But it seems these kids truly like to cause a ruckus.

"Mnh...Mnh! This is a great honor! How many can actually say they've been stalked by one of the most powerful people in the city?" Despite admitting to saying the Vice Principal is a stalker, Aniela had a genuine massive smile and spoke in a bright, cheerful tone like it was a great thing.

Shaking his head at Aniela's comment, Darcel did see some truth in her statement. Shrugging his shoulder, he also spoke up, saying, "It was odd, alright...but I guess you can call it a new experience."

"Already I can tell in terms of personality, you two are even odder than that loudmouth. But, I'll cut straight to the point. Frankly, your talent and potential are among the highest I've ever seen in my life. Your prowess with Profound Qi is unprecedented...but, your foundation is still rough around the edges. For this, you will be directly under Teacher Zala from now on."

The Vice Principal gauged the duo's reaction as she unloaded this bombshell of news onto them. Excitement over gaining a powerful teacher, or a face close like that, was what she expected from the two.

However, she immediately realized she should've known better when both Darcel and Aniela only held calm gazes. They didn't even slightly react being told about their imperfect foundation.

Admittedly she had to gain a small smirk seeing them be so natural. While Aniela seems to not question it, Darcel's eyebrows quirked once thinking about that beautiful teacher.

"Teacher Zala huh... she's got to be at least one of the strongest teachers here if I'm not mistaken, right?" This thought abruptly came to him as there hasn't been a single other teacher that ever came close to the deep profoundness of Teacher Zala.

Not Teacher Ren, any of the initiate level Teachers, or even Instructor Lei can come close to the intense aura Teacher Zala holds. And then there's this massive disparity between Teacher Zala and this Vice-Principal.

Call it an innate curiosity, considering they'll be together soon. Plus, this curiosity got the Vice Principal to form a small, proud smile, telling the duo,

"She's not merely one of the top ten strongest teachers here...she's the second strongest teacher out of the whole Academy. And under her, she'll make sure your Profound Qi becomes more refined and forcefully open up that huge latent potential locked inside yourselves. Also, that small little boy, Giel, his family won't dare to bother you this way."

All at once did the Vice Principal straightforwardly laid out everything for them. A quality that both Darcel and Aniela like to have in conversations. And they'll return the same straightforward favor.

"I'm glad everything is as smooth as this. You know I like people who have this straightforward and bluntness to situations. Wouldn't you agree, Aniela?"

"Oh, absolutely so! In fact, I'm really drawn into people like you, Darcel, and the Vice-Principal! So since we have no logical reason to refuse, when do we start?"

Such direct and bold claims utter from their mouths without a hint of nervousness. The Vice Principal could tell these kids weren't just trying to court favor from their way of speaking.

They honestly just say what's on their mind, a rather admirable quality most don't really have. Taking out a unique purple ring from her desk, she told the two,

"Truthfully, you kids' attitude varies from what I usually see. But it isn't so bad." While talking, her ring ignited in a bright purple spark spewing out untraceable waves of energy.

"Thankfully, I'm glad we can appease. So when do-"

"Vice Principal, I'm here...and it truly seems it came down to me." Darcel's words got cut off when the gorgeous Teacher Zala had suddenly popped up right beside the Vice Principal desk.

Darcel and Aniela were taken by a slight surprise as this literally was like a ghost popping up! Furthermore, around Teacher Zala's body was this mysterious purple energy.

"Everyone at a high level sure does make traveling around look so easy" Aniela lowly mumbled while shaking her head at Teacher Zala's sudden appearance.

Ignoring Aniela's comment, the Vice Principal told Teacher Zala, "From now on, these two talented kids will be in your direct hand. Teach them and guide them with the utmost importance! Also, after this, show them to their new living quarters, where special geniuses living places."

Teacher Zala wasn't surprised in the slightest hearing what she had to do. It would be an utter waste otherwise to not raise and train these two. In the future, who knows what kind of achievements they will have!

However, before Teacher Zala could respond, Aniela had suddenly spoken up in a teasing tone. "Ah! So soon did our fable meeting happen, Teacher Zala. But Vice Principal, just one thing about the rooms. Darcel and I mu-"

"Do you believe I have no experience in seeing youthful romances? There was only one key that would be granted to you two for the room." The Vice Principal bluntly told them.

And honestly, Darcel wasn't surprised she guessed this. It would be surprising to just think they're still friends. Besides, he had no reason to be embarrassed about his, admittedly blissful relationship with Aniela.

"Really...I guess everything was just laid out for us as soon as we got into your office."

"Hehehe~, it's also good to know the Vice Principal can spot a rising youthful couple!" Aniela as well wasn't embarrassed and joined in the little banter while holding Darcel's hand.

The only person who was a bit stiff during this exchange was Teacher Zala. Her expression was a bit cramped as she rarely had light-hearted conversations, or really, conversations in general.

Still, Aniela cast a bright smile to her that at least compelled her to talk a little.

"Then...I suppose we have everything we need here?" Now both Darcel and Aniela's eyes turned on to Teacher Zala, hearing this queer tone of hers. This...this was a new change.

She sounded far more unnatural than her usual calm prestige self. And the duo couldn't help but find this amusing. Moreover, it also gave them some ideas on how to talk with this lady in the future.

The Vice Principal, however, ignored her tone and passed on a purple spatial ring to Teacher Zala, telling her, "Quite, everything you need is right in this ring, for now. Be on your way; I'll be closely monitoring you two especially. Oh, and take them on foot to their rooms first, Zala, they'll get to know the structure of the Academy this way."

Teacher Zala exhaled a little sighed as she began walking over to the duo. Though before Darcel and Aniela turned around, their eyes directly matched with the Vice Principal.

Profound blackness eyes and steel blue eyes meet each other. But this time, it was more of friendly gazes that crossed. To end this little meeting off, Aniela simply smile while saying,

"I hope our training will provide you with good content to watch Vice-Principal. Just say whenever you need us!" Despite her saying this, it's not like they could, as of now, ever refuse a request from the Vice Principal

.

While Darcel and Aniela were having a life-changing meeting, the whole Academy was still in an uproaring state.

Official news spread like wildfire of two Supreme Order Qi Formation geniuses beating Nascent Core students!

No one suspected or doubted they cheated this time since Darcel and Aniela put their full aura on the table. Plus, many officials were there to confirm what the students saw.

Moreover, there was also the undeniable truth that the majestic Vice Principal came to talk to the duo!

The elusive Vice-Principal actually showed herself for two geniuses, already adding on the duo's sudden rising reputation.

Hao Cao was slowly walking by herself down the luxurious dark blue hallways of the Academy's middle level. The area she was in was only reserved for the top-ranking geniuses allowing her space for herself.

Of course, her thoughts were on the duo, especially on the grand emperor like aura Darcel had exuded during the fight.

But before her thoughts could delve any further on him, she suddenly heard a charming male voice,

"Hao Cao, is all this talk going on about the new students true?"

Turning around, her eyes came face to face with a tall, handsome young man. He had sleek jet black hair flowing down to his elbows and a face that exuded a noble charm.

His uniform had also consisted of a fancy purple one compared to Hao Cao's blue one.

"Oh? Didn't think a top-ranking, high-level genius would have an interest in new students. But the rumors are indeed true, Gerey." Hao Cao's tone was teasing as the duo was obviously a hot topic right now.

Still, she did confirm his suspicions, and Gerey fell into little thought.

"Hmm.then surely if the Vice Principal came for them, they'll have to join up for that meeting. It's simply impossible to think otherwise."

"Fufu~ is your foresight giving you nervous premonition about the new ones?" Though Hao Cao had a playful tone, she was fully invested in Gerey's response.

Shaking his head, Geres calmly said, "Going off from you.I can only say, that dramatic shift I felt and told you about from this morning.it might hit us harder closer and sooner than we think."

"Is that so~? Well now, my attention to that special guy has raised all the higher"
