It wasn’t just Xi, the others were also very curious.

Feng Wu didn’t look like she was just randomly guessing, what with her serious expression.

Feng Wu didn’t reply.

Master told her she couldn’t randomly tell others that she could communicate with plants and animals.

It could make them fear her.

Because of this she bit her lip and refused to say anything else.

The suffering expression on Feng Wu’s face made Xi embarrassed.

She didn’t understand why Feng Wu looked so wronged but it made her feel like she was bullying a little girl.

Pei quickly came to a decision and spoke his mind.

“OK since Feng Wu says this is the right path we’ll take it.

It’s not like we have any other clues anyway.” No one else had any ideas either so might as well go for it and wish for the best.

The group of eleven walked the path Feng Wu pointed out for over two days but failed to exit the forest.

Yifu was the first one to complain.

“Are you sure this is the way out? We’ve been on it for so long.

Maybe it’s the wrong way.” “The forest is so big it may just take a little longer to get out.

Don’t worry Yifu.” Although Zi Cheng didn’t know the right way she could feel that the road they were on was the correct one.

It was definitely the way.

“Yeah, I also think we shouldn’t give up so soon.

The forest is big, we won’t make it out of it in just a day or two.

Yifu you’re too anxious.” Ai Lin looked at the forest and she felt that as long as they kept going forward along the road they would get out.

She couldn’t allow Yifu to ruin things.

Feng Wu licked her lips and lowered her head not refuting anything Yifu said.

She was not angry because the children would say mean things like this whenever she and Master went down the mountain.

Back then Master had said, “So what if they talk? What they say isn’t important and you shouldn’t take it to heart.

Don’t bother with those people who look poorly upon you.

And if they start getting overboard and hit you then you should just hit them right back.

Keeping your feelings bottled up is not good for you.” Feng Wu had always been an obedient child and so had always listened to everything Master said.

She would ignore those children who said mean things to her and if they threw stones at her she would use her internal force to direct the stones right back at them.

They suffered the consequences of their actions.

After the children had at taste of what being stoned felt like they stopped physically harassing her.

They kept abusing her verbally though.

Feng Wu didn’t care what Yifu said, but the others felt differently.

By not saying anything back and keeping her head down Feng Wu presented a pitiful image.

“Yifu you said too much! What has Feng Wu ever done to you? You, what are you bullying her for?” Xi was a straightforward girl and disliked bullies the most, so naturally she was the first one to speak up against Yifu.

“Everything I said was true.

I just spoke the truth.

I’m the not only one that thinks this.

Many of you think the same way.

Just admit it!” Yifu looked disdainfully at Xi.

Because of her background, Yifu had always been on guard against two-faced people who hid their true intentions behind false words.

She felt that Feng Wu was this type of person who used her attractive loveable outer appearance to attract people but hid what she really thought, not speaking her mind truthfully.

This kind of person was just a sham and a hypocrite.

magic“Melis you said you don’t like Feng Wu either.

Xiao Cheng, you think she’s annoying and disagreeable right?” Yifu didn’t hesitate to bring these two into the argument against Xi thinking that they would back her up.

She and Zi Cheng were on good terms since the other had saved her from drowning and Melis had already expressed concerns about the path.

Melis felt her body temperature rising at being pulled into the argument.

She tugged at the corner of her jacket nervously.

She came from an ordinary family background with a father who was an ordinary hunter.

If it weren’t for her innate talent earning her an exemption from school tuition and fees, she would surely have stayed in her tiny hamlet and married an ordinary man and had ordinary children.

Melis truly valued the opportunity to test into Xingguang Academy.

She didn’t want to make an enemy or arouse anyone’s dislike, but now she was forced into a hard situation.

She was really annoyed.

“Yifu I don’t dislike or find anyone annoying.

I was only speaking from conjecture a moment ago about the path.” Melis spoke the truth; she really didn’t have anything against Feng Wu.

Aside from that, her reasoning was also based on the fact that both she and Feng Wu were both sword wielders.

If they got accepted it stood to reason they would see each other again.

On the other hand Yifu was a magician so they wouldn’t have much overlap.

Melis’ denial made Yifu angry.

“Why would you say that!? You obviously don’t like her! What are you afraid of?!” This Melis is really useless! So afraid to say what she really thinks! thought Yifu.

“Good Yifu, we’re all on the same team.

Don’t quarrel so much OK?” Zi Cheng wrinkled her brow.

She felt hapless over the situation.

She didn’t expect Yifu, who had seemed like such a loveable little sister, to become so unreasonable.

Ai Lin laughed secretly to herself from the sidelines thinking: This author is really going out of the way to make Yifu’s role exaggerated.
