"Cry," Xia Xiang said seriously, without mocking him. "I'm here, so you can cry without worry. Anyway, I won't stand idly by if they try to bully the weak. Even if it's just fists and kicks, they're no match for me."

"But if you're alone next time, you should still restrain yourself. Even if you can't beat them, you should still learn to bluff and intimidate your opponent. You can't lose face, you know?"

"I know," the young boy nodded emphatically.

"However, you're already quite good. Surrounded by these six burly men who average 1.9 meters tall, you only cried out of fear. You're a good young man."

Young boy: ……

Xia Xiang further advised, "Also, be smarter. If you really can't beat them, don't do it knowing it's impossible."

"You're so direct, that's great." The young boy gave Xia Xiang a thumbs up, his eyes red with tears.

"You speak very honestly, which is also very good," Xia Xiang nodded.

As the two were talking, a man with a pointed face and monkey-like features, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, walked out arrogantly surrounded by a crowd and immediately began to berate the bodyguard mercilessly.

After demonstrating his authority, he saw Xia Xiang in a white robe and a young boy standing to the side.

The man immediately flew into a rage and pointed at Xia Xiang, cursing loudly.

"You! How dare you! I'll sue you to death! I'll sue you until you're bankrupt! How dare you desecrate the immortal countenance of my ancestor? Aren't you afraid of the legal team of my Yunxu Sect?"

Xia Xiang quickly erected a transparent shield to block the opponent's droplets, and felt a bit disgusted, wishing she could slap him.

After Xia Xiang erected her shield, the boy looked at her with shining eyes again. He could clearly feel that the voice was no longer as sharp and piercing as before, and the stench that had been hitting him was also kept out.

"What do you think he means?" Xia Xiang asked, puzzled.

“I don’t really understand either,” the young boy said. “But there was a rumor that TV dramas can’t have women with long hair and white clothes, otherwise the dramas will be taken down and the celebrities involved will be blacklisted, which has a wide-ranging impact.”

"But I've heard it's a very mysterious sect. How is it connected to Yunxu Academy?"

"Have you heard of Yunxu Academy before?" Xia Xiang asked.

The young boy shook his head. "No."

"That must be that group of scoundrels. They've offended my freedom of dress!"

Xia Xiang rarely suffered such humiliation. While she was thinking of a solution, she noticed the boy's shining eyes and an idea popped into her head.

"I'll teach you a spell."

The boy nodded obediently.

"Raise your hand, palm facing him," Xia Xiang pointed to the person who was still spitting, then taught the young boy the incantation for the Lightning Bolt spell, "Thunderbolt of Despair—Wula Baha—Lightning Bolt."

The boy's loud shouts instantly silenced the group from Yunxu Academy, who stared at them with wide eyes.

But embarrassingly... nothing happened...

"This looks a little silly," the boy said, his fingers slightly bent, but he still didn't put his hand down.

"No, actually it's pretty impressive. At least you calmed things down." Xia Xiang was amazed at her own imagination. People with superpowers only appeared in the Earth Dimension, how could they possibly learn the Lightning Technique in one go?

Xia Xiang took two steps forward, wanting to reason with this group of people again.

"I'll try again," the boy said stubbornly, raising his hand again to recite the incantation for the Lightning Spell.

The lightning struck Xia Xiang's transparent shield directly.

Although it was just a simple lightning bolt, it was enough to create a deathly silence at the scene.

"Not bad," Xia Xiang nodded to the young boy.

Unexpectedly, after a period of silence, the man with the pointed face and monkey-like cheeks became even angrier, saying that he had stolen their martial arts techniques.

He called for reinforcements via walkie-talkie, and together with those present, they rushed forward to take them down.

Xia Xiang couldn't take it anymore. Ignoring his outburst, she turned around, walked up to the boy, put her hand on his shoulder, and asked, "Do you wet the bed? Do you like playing with fire? Do you abuse small animals?"

The boy's admiring gaze instantly changed. "How could you ask me such questions? Do I look like a psychopath to you?"

"That's good." Xia Xiang didn't move her hand on his shoulder, walked behind him, and removed the shield. "Just like before, repeat after me."

"Flying Shadow of Despair - Ura Baha - Combo Lightning Strike"

This isn't the kind of harmless electric shock we used to get; it's the kind that electrocutes rows of people until they're blackened and charred.

"They...they're dead?" the young boy asked, his face filled with panic.

"No," Xia Xiang said, leaving him behind and walking towards the door. "Shall we go in?"

The young boy immediately perked up, tiptoeing carefully to avoid stepping on the people on the ground.

Xia Xiang curled her lips into a smile. Of course she had to go in, otherwise she would have no choice but to resort to violence.

After entering, the two walked to the center of the hall of the modern-style building.

Dozens of eleven- or twelve-year-old boys dressed in funeral attire stood in neat rows, kneeling in the center of the hall, performing a formal apprenticeship ceremony to the androgynous man in a white robe at the head of the table. On either side stood various elites dressed in suits and formal attire.

"What's going on? There are so many people?" Xia Xiang turned to look at the young boy who had caught up.

"Of course! It's a live stream with tens of millions of viewers. If it weren't for my mom's lightning-fast reflexes from watching live streams all these years, I wouldn't have been able to get a ticket," the young boy said with a touch of pride.

Then she lowered her head, a little sad, "Unfortunately, those people outside say it's fake."

The scene was originally solemn and quiet, but after Xia Xiang and the boy entered, the noise attracted everyone's attention, and some people came forward to stop Xia Xiang and the boy's behavior.
