Battle Through the Heavens II: Three Phases of Peerless Power, One Soul and Four Bodies

"Ahem! We have a new transfer student in our class today. Okay, everyone, let's give them a warm welcome!"

Only then did Ran Yu realize that she was also a transfer student; no wonder she was standing at the door.

The girl walked with a steady gait, her expression serious and devoid of any superfluous emotion. Yet, her stunning beauty still drew enthusiastic applause from her classmates. Ran Yu inwardly cursed again, "How can you be so hypocritical! I'm truly fed up with you guys!"

The girl showed no shyness in front of the crowd; in fact, her voice sounded somewhat mature.

"Hello everyone, I'm a new transfer student named Xue Qianluo. I'm very happy to join this class and learn and grow together with everyone. I also hope to fight alongside you in future battles! My martial soul is called the Aurora Sword, a well-rounded, powerful offensive martial soul. My current soul power level is forty-two. I look forward to your guidance in the future."

Upon hearing this, the students in the class immediately erupted in an uproar, whispering among themselves and exclaiming in surprise.

"Level 42? How is that possible! She looks only twelve or thirteen years old!"

"Offer guidance? Level 42? Who dares to offer guidance on that?"

"Aurora Sword? Never heard of it. Is it that awesome?"

"Wow! So fair and beautiful! She looks like a fairy from heaven... But I still prefer cute girls like Hua Xi'er~~"

At this moment, Luo Ranyu's heart also fluttered.

"The Aurora Sword? This martial spirit... indeed, there's no record of this kind of martial spirit in the books, but the name of this sword has appeared in my mind, hidden deep in my memory. But apart from the name Aurora Sword, I can't find any other information."

Luo Ranyu couldn't help but look at Xue Qianluo with some curiosity. Xue Qianluo seemed to sense his gaze, turned her head slightly, and met his eyes. Her eyes held a faint scrutiny, but soon softened, and a smile appeared on her face.

Luo Ranyu was slightly taken aback. Before she could react, the female teacher clapped her hands, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Alright, classmates, you've all heard about Xue Qianluo's abilities. From now on, she'll be your new classmate. I hope you can all help each other and make progress together."

Applause rang out in the classroom again, but this time it was mostly recognition and awe of Xue Qianluo's strength.

Xue Qianlu nodded slightly and began to freely choose a seat.

Unfortunately, under everyone's gaze, she also came to another seat next to Luo Ranyu, casually and domineeringly sitting down next to Luo Ranyu. Ranyu resisted the urge to move towards Xi'er, but when her snow-white arms came into view, Luo Ranyu still felt a subtle sense of tension.

The three transfer students ended up sitting together by sheer coincidence. To Luo Ranyu's left was the charming and adorable Hua Xi'er, and to her right was the aloof and stunning Xue Qianluo. A strange and subtle atmosphere subtly formed between the three of them.

Luo Ranyu glanced sideways at Hua Xier on his left. Hua Xier was also looking this way, her little face full of cuteness and curiosity. Her gaze passed over him and landed on Xue Qianluo, seemingly very interested in this beautiful new older sister.

After Xue Qianluo sat down, she turned to look at Hua Xier. The two girls, with completely different appearances and temperaments, exchanged a glance.

Both of them had their own thoughts.

Hua Xi'er: Wow! This older sister is so pretty! Especially her golden hair and purple eyes, she's like a princess from a fairy tale! Oh dear! Why is she sitting next to Brother Ran Yu...?

Xue Qianluo: Strange! This girl has such a refreshing scent, just like the girl in my memory—innocent and lovely, with eyes full of clear kindness. The only difference is that the other girl had a light, natural scent, while this girl carries a sweet floral fragrance...

Luo Ranyu noticed that both of them seemed to be drawn to each other. Oh! So she was interested in Xi'er! As the saying goes, a gentleman helps others achieve their goals, so he slightly rose and softly said to Xue Qianluo, "Qianluo, would you like to change seats?"

Xue Qianlu reacted quickly, reaching out to gently press down on his shoulder. The pressure was light, but carried an undeniable firmness. She said in a deep voice, "No need!"

At the same time, Luo Ranyu felt his sleeve being gently tugged. He looked down and saw Hua Xier under the table, tightly gripping his sleeve with her small hands.

Around noon, the bell rang to signal the end of class, and the students packed up and left the classroom one after another.

Unlike the lively atmosphere when Luo Ranyu and Hua Xier transferred to the school, not many people gathered around Xue Qianluo to show any concern for the new student. This was a stark contrast to the arrival of Hua Xier.

Hua Xi'er's sweet smile and kind temperament always make people feel happy and comfortable. She has an innate approachable and friendly charm. When she first arrived in the class, she was warmly surrounded by her classmates.

However, Xue Qianluo's cold and aloof aura instilled fear in most people. Her angelic face was sacred and dignified, and her powerful soul force formed an invisible barrier, keeping all those who wanted to approach her at bay.

But this aloofness clearly didn't scare Hua Xi'er away. She packed up her books and, still full of curiosity, looked at Xue Qianluo beside her, taking the initiative to greet her: "Xue Qianluo! Hello! My name is Hua Xi'er, and this is Luo Ranyu. Ranyu and I are also transfer students! It's such a coincidence that the three of us are transfer students! Sister, if you have any questions, feel free to ask us!"

Xue Qianlu glanced at Hua Xier with a questioning look in her eyes, inwardly thinking: "Brother Ran Yu? Is she calling him that so affectionately?" However, her mannerisms did resemble those of the girl named Xi Ling from ten thousand years ago; her address to Xiao Ran was also so intimate. But theoretically, Xiao Ran should have no relatives or friends in the Star Dou Great Forest.

At this moment, Luo Ranyu also extended an olive branch to Xue Qianluo, saying, "My name is Luo Ranyu. If you'd like, we can show you around the campus."

Xue Qianluo's gaze swept between Hua Xier's smiling face and Luo Ranyu's gentle expression. Her tense lips relaxed slightly, revealing a faint smile, and she replied calmly, "Is that so? Then thank you both."

Hua Xi'er's smile brightened even more when she saw Xue Qianluo agree. "Great! Let's go eat now! This afternoon we'll visit some of the interesting places in the academy!"

As she spoke, she took Xue Qianluo's hand and warmly led her outside. Xue Qianluo did not pull away, but simply let Hua Xier pull her along. Like Ran Yu, she could not refuse the girl's enthusiastic invitation.
