Gu Xiao Yue stayed quiet throughout the breakfast and only spoke a few sentences. She was lost in her own thoughts while eating her food slowly.

She was still thinking about what happened this morning and also was considering about whether she should keep on making use of the 'Heavely jade gourd's' power.

Since her soul could acc.u.mulate spiritual qi automatically in small amounts then she should also think of a way to keep away from the eyes of other martial artists or else she may get into trouble.

Why would she get into trouble, you ask? Well, a martial artist who can cultivate and is of high cultivation tier then he/she can see through a normal person or someone with weaker spiritual energy than themselves if he/she injected their inner qi inside them.

The target cannot defend against the martial artist due to being weaker so his/her internal body structure and soul can get seen through clearly if the martial artist's spiritual qi is high enough.

And being seen through meant they can see anything spiritually, their cultivation, spiritual core, qi streams and also the spiritual artifacts bound to someone through contract.

But there aren't many who would have a spiritual artifact bound to them so it isn't that much of a reason.

Yet, it cannot apply to Gu Xiao Yue since she has a spiritual artifact which is also a godly artifact crafted by a god tier cultivator himself. Which spiritual expert wouldn't greed over such a godly artifact?

And something bound through blood contract is also very hard to sever from it's current owner without having him give up his life which means that Gu Xiao Yue would have to live with hidden danger after her life if she was ever found out by any spiritual master.

But Gu Xiao Yue didn't know about the danger but only worried about how she should avoid being identified as one with spiritual powers. Bai had also forgotten to tell her about this which was either an accident or was deliberately done by him.

No one could tell what was in that toddler with a more than hundred thousand years old soul's mind.

...

Grandpa Gu and her brothers were giving each other complicated stares as they looked at the silent girl who was now lost in her own world.

They didn't know what was going on inside her head but they decided to not disturb her line of thoughts so as to not disrupt whatever she was thinking.

..

Gu Xiao Yue went to meet up with Feng Jiao with many thoughts swirling around her mind but then she shook her head and her eyes muddled with confusion were now clear and bright like stars.

'Whatever may come, may come. I cannot perfectly avoid any trouble that I don't even know much about so I will just prepare myself for it and just focus on the present. Bai said that I might get pursued by the martial artist but the possibility is also only 1% and full of uncertainty. So I might as well not worry about it right now and get back on the right track.'

Gu Xiao Yue thought as such and then stepped forward with more confident steps.

...

It was already the day when school starts after the short break of a whole week and it also meant the day of the results announcement.

The results would be posted on the announcement board of the school and students will search for their symbol number and name for their results.

The students were heading to school with cheerful, fearful or confident expressions. The announcement board was already packed with students when Gu Xiao Yue and Feng Jiao went to search for their names and check out their results.

The students had gathered around just now so they hadn't finished looking for their names on the board which made other students at the back to push or urge them to hurry up.

Gu Xiao Yue and Feng Jiao didn't join the students in push and pull games and just looked for their symbol number from their position.

Gu Xiao Yue could clearly see many things even if they very far away from her so it was no big deal for her.

But Feng Jiao was having a bit trouble to find her symbol number in such densely packed small letters which made her stick out her head from the back to get a better look.

Luckily, Feng Jiao caught the sight of her symbol number and found that she was 19th in rank with the usual marks obtained in the subjects.

She didn't feel any emotion about her own results but was actually more curious and also worried about Gu Xiao Yue's results instead.

She looked at the calm and indifferent girl beside her who was no longer looking at the board. She was confused why she didn't search for her symbol number anymore. Or could it be....

...

"Xiao Yue, did you find your symbol number? It can't be that it isn't even among those numbers, right?" Feng Jiao asked her with a worried look.

She still remembered that her friend used to get very average marks on her exams before but she also had a feeling that it may be different this time yet couldn't help but worry for her.

" I have already found my symbol number and also looked at the results so don't worry about it. How about you? Did you find yours? Which position did you get?" Gu Xiao Yue smiled and asked her.

"Oh I see. That's good then. I also found my symbol number and got 19th position. By the way, what did you get?" Feng Jiao asked her after she answered about her own results nonchalantly.

"I got---" Gu Xiao Yue was just about to answer when suddenly a surprised gasp came from the front of the crowd.

..

"Oh my god, the unbeatable Qi Ren who always took the first place in exam actually only got the second position this time?!" A guy cried out in shock which made all the students to turn to look at him and then check out the first row of the announcement paper after hearing what he just said.

" What?! It's real. How is this possible? And the gap in grade....what the heck is with this unknown guy?! He actually got perfect score in every single subject! That's just impossible!" Another guy cried out in disbelief and utter shock which made a series of loud gasps ring out of the students.

" A perfect score at all subjects? Where? Where? I can't see clearly!"

" Hey, let us see too! Don't block the sight!"

The students at the back also heard it and became very curious whether it was really true or not so they pushed and scolded the students who were blocking the way upfront.

" God jesus! Is this guy even a human being? To get such a perfect scores...even Qi Ren was left behind by at least 20 marks. Who is this legend?! I want to see the person who pulled it off and kneel down on my knees to worship that great figure."

Another boy said that in a dramatical way which also made other students want to laugh but couldn't because they still weren't out of their shock at this news.

.....

" Hey, whose symbol number is XXXX27? And...it seems to be someone from....class 1-C?..What?!" A girl asked the question but then again shrieked in huge shock which made other students to cover their pitiful ears.

"Why are you shouting so loud?! Can't you react so dramatically over any small details? And which class did you say it was again? Couldn't hear clearly because of your loud shriek. Jeez." A girl who looked like the friend of the now dumbfounded girl chided her in annoyance then asked her again.

" I-It says...class 1-C.."The girl then finally said in a normal volume but still her voice shook from the shock she felt from this.

" Class 1-C?!" Now it was the turn for every student except some who could hide their emotions well to shriek in shock. Class 1-C was the class for only those who did poorly in academics so how could it be possible for a student in that class to get such an unbelievablely high scores?!

"That's impossible, right? H-how can it be...it must be a mistake! Yeah, it must be a mistake in typing." The students couldn't believe this at all so they then made such a lame excuse to keep their sanity.

"Hey.... I seem to have seen someone having that symbol number before...hmm I think, I saw it when the teacher was checking a paper. But I can't seem to remember clearly who it was."

A boy who was also from class 1-C murmured in a low voice as he searched through his memories for the person who was likely to be the one with the symbol number XXXX27.

But his voice was still heard by other students which made them look at him with curious eyes that looked like one of a predator looking at its prey.

The boy was slightly terrified by their looks but still continued searching through his memories. After a minute, his eyes finally brightened and he said in a cheerful voice.

"Aha! I remember now!"
