Everyone is a decent person, but as soon as the Shamate hairstyle made its appearance, it immediately left them all speechless.
Poison God Si stared at his reflection in the mirror, his fluffy purple hair making him look like a lost youth. He couldn’t find his voice for a long time, and his gaze gradually became vacant. He couldn’t even begin to imagine how his lifelong rival would laugh at him with this ugly look. In his mind, he could already see the other person rolling on the ground with laughter.
Oh, shrimp and pig heart!
Just think about how handsome and dashing he looked wearing a hair crown, full of grace!
The punishment for failing to challenge the top of the grade was this painful!
Poison God Si never thought he would fail the challenge, nor had he ever feared the punishment for failure. But in this moment, regret welled up inside him, and he felt as if his insides were turning green with remorse. He would rather take a beating; once he healed, he could continue to fight!
But this purple hair was torture every second!
The others were also in a daze. As high-quality handsome men with normal aesthetics, raised in an environment of high-end beauty, their souls were greatly shaken by the impact of the Shamate style. The power of Shamate was like a mental pollution, causing them immense pain.
How could there be such an ugly hairstyle!
The teacher supervising their punishment was trembling under the influence of Shamate. At this moment, he must have thought of the saddest things in his mind just to keep a straight face without cracking.
Seeing them transform from stylish handsome men into Shamate spirits, Jiang Baiyu felt his eyes sting, but thinking about the things this group had just done, he felt they deserved it.
They should taste the flavor of regret!
Poison God Si’s face was stiff as he raised his hand to touch his purple hair. His fingers trembled, and he struggled to put his hand down. Taking a deep breath, he said to Jiang Baiyu with utmost seriousness, “How about you just hit me once? I promise I won’t resist!”
His expression was pained, and his voice was filled with despair and regret. “This punishment is too severe; I can’t accept it! How am I supposed to face people as Poison God Si in the future!”
Jiang Baiyu scrutinized Poison God Si carefully. With his sea urchin-like purple hair and heavy bangs covering one eye, his hair was still quite flowing. The sea urchin hairstyle looked very natural, and the purple was pure and vibrant, truly a product of a cultivator’s potion, the effect was outstanding, but it still lacked a certain feeling.
Jiang Baiyu smiled kindly, picked up an eyebrow pencil, and said to Poison God Si, “Don’t move.”
He quickly drew a circle of deep purple eyeliner, instantly adding a finishing touch.
Then he drew a small star on his cheek and applied a deep purple lipstick that looked as if it was about to poison him.
Jiang Baiyu patted Poison God Si affectionately, “Alright, all done.”
With this non-mainstream Shamate spirit look, every move you make becomes the center of attention in the crowd.
Poison God Si looked at himself in the mirror and instantly felt that it would be better to just die.
Jiang Baiyu smiled, “You’re the second in the grade; you should stand out a bit. Look, no one else has this, only you. Aren’t you a little happy about that?”
Hearing this, Poison God Si’s face turned pale, and the purple lipstick and eyeliner matched him a bit too well. He gritted his teeth and suddenly understood the joy of dragging others down with him. “We’re all failure challengers; they should all have this too! I can’t be the only one suffering!”
Jiang Baiyu pretended to be surprised, “Looks like you’re accepting this pretty quickly; you got used to it so fast!”
Poison God Si immediately became furious, “Bullshit! I, Poison God Si, can have my head chopped off and blood flow! I accept the punishment for failing the challenge, whether you hit me or confine me! Just change the punishment so I don’t have to face this embarrassing look! I, Poison God Si, will have no objections! From now on, you will be the undisputed top of the grade, and I will wholeheartedly accept it!”
Being laughed at for a lifetime of black history is worse than bowing down for a moment; Poison God Si knew how to choose.
If this look gets out, how will he ever hold his head high again?
His father could break his legs.
After saying that, he shot a fierce look at the others, as if daring anyone to disagree with him.
Not only did Poison God Si not want this black history, but the others didn’t want it either. They were all proud sons of heaven, pampered since childhood, and cared a lot about their image.
Most importantly, having this ugly look seen by their most hated rival was worse than death.
Thinking about having a handle in the hands of their lifelong rival, becoming a topic of ridicule for the rest of their lives, made them feel suffocated.
The third place, Song Yanshu, was originally a refined and handsome man, but now he had dyed his hair pink, with Shamate bangs covering most of his face, revealing only one eye. His hair was fluffy, like an open clam shell.
Before he knew what Shamate was, he was quite calm, as ignorance breeds fearlessness. Now he was terrified, and it was a deep fear, avoiding it like a snake or scorpion.
If he had to keep this look throughout his academy life, what difference would it make from being dead? It would be better to just die; at least he wouldn’t have to endure this punishment.
Proud sons of heaven also have their circles, and it’s inevitable that there will be people they don’t get along with.
Having a handle in the hands of the other party was more uncomfortable than dying.
Song Yanshu clasped his hands, maintaining a proper demeanor, and smiled, “The sudden challenge was our offense. We simply saw the strength displayed by the top of the grade and couldn’t help but want to spar. Now that we are all students of the Ascending Immortal Academy, sparring with each other is a common occurrence.”
“I hope you will be lenient. I, Song Yanshu, fully accept your position as the top of the grade.”
His words were steady, sincere, and his smile was the perfect social mask, flawless. Unfortunately, with that Shamate hairstyle, no matter what he did, he looked like a spirited young man.
The bangs covering most of his face also hid his smile.
Poison God Si’s skin suddenly twitched, thinking about how he looked just like this now, his heart turned to ashes.
“That’s right, you are the top of the grade, and we fully accept it.”
“Whoever disagrees will have to get through me first!”
The fourth and fifth places spoke up one after another.
The rest of them naturally wouldn’t disagree, making solemn statements expressing their trust in the top of the grade, each one more sincere than the last.
This chaotic battle involved almost all the top ten experts of the grade. The main reason it developed this way was that Jiang Baiyu was too low-key, not someone from their genius circle.
A nameless person suddenly surpassed them to take the top position; how could these proud sons of heaven accept that?
The entrance examination of the Ascending Immortal Academy had rules that ordinary people didn’t know. They had received hints to some extent and subconsciously thought that the heart examination didn’t focus much on strength, which allowed others to pick the peaches.
The top of the grade had the qualification to enter the Immortal Pool for cultivation, and it wasn’t just about occupying the best position of the spiritual vein.
Some had originally planned to observe the situation and see how it went, but plans couldn’t keep up with changes.
It was one thing for a group of rabble to come and challenge, but it was only natural for them to be dealt with. The result was that the second-ranked Poison God Si directly challenged the top, and the others couldn’t sit still.
There was only one spot available for entering the Immortal Pool for cultivation; who wouldn’t want to be first?
Indeed, there would be other opportunities in the future, but who would be willing to fall behind when they could get ahead?
Thus, it evolved into a chaotic battle.
They never expected to lose so thoroughly. If the academy hadn’t intervened, it would have been hard to say what would happen next. Such moves were clearly the secret techniques they had been saving.
A mere food cultivator, unfathomable!
Roasted wings were even sharper than their spiritual tools!
Lou Yuzhu and Bai Xianzhu barely squeezed into the top fifty. Seeing Jiang Baiyu’s name on the ranking list made their hearts leap with joy. The higher the ranking, the better the dormitory assigned. The first-ranked dormitory was a fixed position, easy to find.
Hearing that the top ten experts were fighting over the dormitory of the top of the grade, they rushed over, only to see the chaos end as the academy intervened.
They wanted to approach Jiang Baiyu to talk, but considering the occasion, they hesitated among the onlookers.
It was Jiang Baiyu who suddenly caught sight of them, paused for a moment, and said to the Shamate crowd, “If you guys can just let this slide with a few words, won’t anyone be able to challenge me in the future? After all, the punishment for failure is minimal, or even nonexistent. Who knows, maybe someone will succeed if they try.”
“You say this now, but who can predict the future? Once this matter is over, if you turn your back on me, what can I do? Should I go to the academy and complain that you didn’t keep your word?”
The few of them exchanged glances, the atmosphere tense.
Song Yanshu clasped his hands, “Just say what you want.”
Jiang Baiyu pointed at Lou Yuzhu and Bai Xianzhu in the crowd, “My friends are here to find me, and I don’t want to waste time with you. How about this, let’s take a picture, and consider it a punishment.”
This thing in his hand was equivalent to holding onto these people’s black history.
After all, they were all young masters from noble families, and Jiang Baiyu didn’t want to offend them too much, so he took a step back.
He didn’t want to make enemies in his academy life.
Taking a picture was naturally not a big deal for cultivators. Having their black history in Jiang Baiyu’s hands was much better than enduring this look throughout their entire student life at the Ascending Immortal Academy.
The few of them felt relieved, and they couldn’t help but develop a bit of goodwill towards Lou Yuzhu and Bai Xianzhu.
As they left, Poison God Si glanced at them a few more times, as if memorizing them, and the others did the same.
With no more excitement to watch, the crowd of onlookers dispersed.
Seeing such a lively scene today was already a huge gain for them; they didn’t want to wait for the top ten experts to come back and cause trouble.
The supervising teacher nodded at Jiang Baiyu, saying, “The dormitory has been repaired.”
The Ascending Immortal Academy understood the impulsive and combative nature of young people very well. The formations set up in the dormitories had a repair function; no matter how badly they were damaged, they could be restored with a single button, reducing a lot of trouble and saving manpower, material resources, and financial resources.
Jiang Baiyu thanked him, and the supervising teacher left.
Only then did Lou Yuzhu and Bai Xianzhu come over. Lou Yuzhu, still feeling a bit shaken, said, “I didn’t expect the top ten to challenge you. My junior brother and I rushed over as soon as we heard the news; it was really thrilling.”
Bai Xianzhu looked Jiang Baiyu up and down and sincerely said, “I’ve heard that the top of the grade has special treatment, so the positions of the top of each grade are highly sought after. It’s great that you were able to seize this position and hold it against the top ten!”
Whether the special treatment was special or not was another matter, but Jiang Baiyu noticed something very important during the chaotic battle.
“Why are all the top ten guys?”
The onlookers were all guys; there wasn’t a single girl!
Did he walk into a monk’s temple?
Bai Xianzhu was taken aback, “You didn’t know? The male and female academies of the Ascending Immortal Academy are separate, so there are two tops.”
So getting familiar with the environment was indeed necessary; some things couldn’t just be resolved by drawing a map. The student rules only included what the teachers deemed necessary to remind students of, and generally, no one memorized everything on the first day.
When Jiang Baiyu went to sleep, the others had already gotten up and were exploring the academy’s environment.
After such an episode, Jiang Baiyu was wide awake. At the invitation of the two, he went for a stroll.
When he returned to his own place, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a ball of ghostly fire floating in the room, heavy with resentment, staring at him.
Jiang Baiyu’s heart skipped a beat, forgetting that this ancestor had gone out to take a look at the academy’s panoramic view at his request.
Before he could think of a way to deal with it, a smile had already squeezed out, and without hesitation, he used a cutesy voice, “Little brother, you’re back! Was it hard? Are you tired?”
If this were a person, he would definitely pull the other party to massage his shoulders and back, showering them with kindness.
The ghostly fire: …
