When system cheat becomes rampant!

After a long pause, he turned to look at Xiang Beifei, his eyes flickering with a trace of light, "Then, Student Xiang Beifei, could you please come to the stage and explain how you recognized and killed the Triangular Thunder Krait?"

Xiang Beifei contemplated.

He had killed a Triangular Thunder Krait during the school entrance assessment, and while students were not freely allowed to view the video archives, teachers could. That meant Xu Yang must have seen that particular footage as well.

He had killed a Triangular Thunder Krait during his own entrance assessment, and, by coincidence, Xu Yang had also killed one just a couple of days ago. He didn't believe it was a mere coincidence.

But Xiang Beifei stood up nonetheless. The other party obviously had some purpose in coming, just like the last time when he sent a mutant hound to attack him, seemingly to test his talents. This time the situation was probably similar.

Xu Yang thought that Xiang Beifei had not noticed this, so it was only natural for Xiang Beifei to let Xu Yang continue to believe that.

Feigning ignorance was the best way to investigate this guy.

"Okay."

He walked towards the lectern.

Many eyes followed Xiang Beifei. Up to now, because no video had leaked, whether Xiang Beifei had truly killed the Triangular Thunder Krait was mostly hearsay with various versions and hard to confirm.

They too wanted to see firsthand what experience the reputed practitioner of Body Cultivation, who had been training for thirteen years, could share.

Xiang Beifei eyed the huge Triangular Thunder Krait in front of him, then his gaze turned somewhat surprised.

Because the Triangular Thunder Krait was intact with no apparent wounds; it had not died because its eyes were gouged out. Its eyes were still emitting a blue, eerie glow, unharmed.

But it was dead, and Xiang Beifei had no idea how.

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Beifei inquired, "How did you kill it, teacher?"

Xu Yang smiled slightly, "That's for you to tell everyone."

"The method Teacher used to kill this Triangular Thunder Krait differed from mine," Xiang Beifei said.

Xu Yang nodded, "I had encountered it in the outskirts of a desolate area outside the domain, and thinking it could be used as a teaching tool, I killed it using other methods to keep its corpse as intact as possible. However, my method is obviously not the best one, because my strength is stronger than its, allowing me to suppress it with my cultivation level. But if you haven't reached the Meridian Opening stage, then you must do it the regular way."

What he said was reasonable—the cultivation level of a university teacher was at least at the Meridian Opening stage, so dealing with a late-stage Qi-Controlling Triangular Thunder Krait was quite simple.

Xiang Beifei said, "The Scale Armor all over the Triangular Thunder Krait is very tough, and it's impossible to penetrate its defenses relying solely on the power of someone in the Qi-Controlling stage. It has a very powerful method of attack; those eyes can shoot out lightning, and if hit, one's body would suffer burns and numbness. So, to kill it, you must avoid the lightning, then poke its eyes blind!"

Xu Yang seemed to have grasped a key point and asked, "So, you were once hit by its lightning?"

"Yes, but I held up against it. I'm a practitioner of Body Cultivation, Teacher, have you forgotten?" Xiang Beifei said.

The other freshmen suddenly understood; the fact that Xiang Beifei practiced Body Cultivation had long been well-known. His natural strong defenses would allow him to withstand a lightning strike without surprise.

Xu Yang nodded slightly, but there seemed to be a trace of doubt in his eyes because he had not seen Xiang Beifei getting struck by lightning in that video.

But he quickly thought that, according to the rumors, Xiang Beifei had killed two Triangular Thunder Kraits, but only one was recorded, perhaps he was hit during the first encounter, and so he did not dwell on it.

Meng Yuekai glanced around below and raised his hand, "Teacher, I heard there was a video at the time. Why can't you let us watch how Student Xiang Beifei killed the Triangular Thunder Krait? As a teaching video, it would allow all of us to learn and refer to it in the future, wouldn't it?"

His words garnered the agreement of many, as seeing is believing, but hearing is often deceptive. Everyone was talking about Xiang Beifei's slaying of the Triangular Thunder Krait, yet only the two hundred people who were present had actually seen it, and they could only describe it with words.

"The student records at our school are confidential. You'll need to apply for access, which is beyond my capabilities. You might try reaching out to Mr. Yuchi, who is in charge of the training course," Xu Yang explained.

But he too fell into contemplation, because under normal circumstances, the video of Xiang Beifei killing the Triangular Thunder Krait would indeed be used as teaching material for the students. However, for some reason, the school had decided to keep the video under wraps.

In that video, the method Xiang Beifei employed to kill the Triangular Thunder Krait was so exemplary that it could be included in textbooks, serving as a model for Qi-Controlling phase practitioners facing the Triangular Thunder Krait.

Of course, while the model was exemplary, actually encountering a Triangular Thunder Krait and defeating it as cleanly as Xiang Beifei did would be very difficult for practitioners in the later stages of Qi-Controlling.

Xiang Beifei glanced at Meng Yuekai, then at Xu Yang.

SR-level Meng Yuekai seemed very interested in him, appearing to want to study him, which he was aware of, but Xu Yang was a different story.

The decision to seal away the video was made by Elder Luo, who did not want Xiang Beifei, being new to the school, to be thoroughly studied and scrutinized by too many others, which would put him at a disadvantage among the students.

University teachers indeed have the right to access and observe, for they can apply to view it even if they can't disclose any secrets. Xiang Beifei didn't mind the teachers watching, but the sudden appearance of Xu Yang made him wary.

"I noticed the teacher didn't kill the Triangular Thunder Krait by blinding it, so how did you kill it?" Xiang Beifei asked Xu Yang seriously.

Guided by Xiang Beifei's question, others also turned to Xu Yang, clearly wanting to know how a Meridian Opening stage expert would deal with the Triangular Thunder Krait.

Xu Yang smiled and said, "As I said before, through suppression of cultivation level."

"Where did you specifically suppress it? The head? Or the heart? Or perhaps its Beast Pill? If you directly suppressed it, with your cultivation level, it would make sense to flatten the Triangular Thunder Krait, or even to slice it in half with one strike as a matter of course. Yet the Triangular Thunder Krait died with not a single wound on its body. How did it die? Did the teacher use some special ability? Can you tell us?" Xiang Beifei asked earnestly.

Practitioners at the Qi-Controlling phase cannot break through the Triangular Thunder Krait's Scale Armor, but it's an easy task for those at the Meridian Opening phase to tear those scales. The fact that the Triangular Thunder Krait died without any injuries indicated that this person's means of slaying it was highly skilled.

Xu Yang's brow furrowed slightly; he hadn't expected Xiang Beifei to turn the questions back on him, and in such detail.

Everyone possessed a system, which needed to be kept secret. What ability one used to kill was a personal secret. Unless you are an Awakener like Sun Rui and Guo Han, whose system powers are very obvious, and one could roughly guess the system type upon seeing them in action.

However, some people, even when they act, would not let others guess their system type, like Elder Luo and Li Nanxing. When they fight with others, no one could guess their system type.

Certainly, Xu Yang had no intention of elaborate explanations to the students about how he killed the Triangular Thunder Krait, as it involved his capabilities. Yet, as a teacher responsible for teaching about desolate beasts, it wouldn't be appropriate for him not to explain.

After a moment of pondering, Xu Yang spoke, "I have a deep understanding of desolate beasts and have a set of special methods to deal with them."

"So, is the teacher's awakened system specifically designed to confront desolate beasts? That is, is it a desolate beast type of system that can cause special damage to desolate beasts? My senior Sun Rui, who protected me last time outside the domain in the desolate wilderness, had a system that was very adept at dealing with desolate beasts. Is the teacher's system of that type?" Xiang Beifei asked subtly.

The Beast Transformation System awakened by Sun Rui was something many people could guess; he was quite an obvious Awakener, and it was not a secret. Speaking out about it wouldn't really affect Sun Rui's system missions.

Xiang Beifei, in fact, knew what Xu Yang's system was, and understood the capabilities of his system very well. However, since Xu Yang had previously sent a strange hound to test him, and now was clearly intending to investigate him, Xiang Beifei was not about to make it easy for him.

This man had attacked him before, and now suddenly he had become his teacher. Furthermore, the first class was pointedly about capturing a Triangular Thunder Krait for him to share his experience, which appeared to have an ulterior motive.

Xiang Beifei needed to lead the whole class to understand what type of system Xu Yang had, to put him at a disadvantage and see if he could uncover anything else.

If Xu Yang had secrets he didn't wish others to know, he certainly wouldn't want too many people to become aware of his abilities.

Xiang Beifei's thinking was simple: if you wish to probe my secrets, then I will lead others to probe yours. It's only fair.
