Luna's pretty privilege was gone the moment she challenged them but it was an interesting test to witness the overall attitude of the Main Academy students. Number One already knew they were prideful after meeting the five seniors but it was quite a surprise to think everyone was the same.
"I have a question," Number One muttered as he turned to the guards. "I suppose students can't fight with each other inside the Academy grounds. What are the rules outside the Academy?"
The guards raised their eyebrows as they replied, "It's prohibited to fight inside the Academy but there are no rules preventing fights from happening outside. If you think you are safe from trouble just cause you joined the Academy then you are mistaken."
"Oh, I'm not worried about that," Number One shook his head with a chuckle while casually forming a Soul Sword. "It just feels like we will get stepped on in the Academy unless we show our strength so we might as well get to it right away."
The students paled when the girls displayed their own Soul Swords without hesitation but it was too late to run away. Luna disappeared from her position and attacked the student who was talking shit about her. He didn't even know what happened before looking down to see a hole in his belly.
Luna didn't hesitate to launch onto another person she remembered and Nami joined right after. Number One didn't even move before the two started wreaking havoc within the group. He gazed at the guards again and they immediately run away behind the barrier while calling for backup.
"Try not to kill them," Number One called out casually as he activated his Heavenly Cloud Steps to join the ladies. By the time he stabbed two slow students, everyone else was jumping out of the floating island before flying away in panic.
| "Where are you all going? I thought you all wanted to fight after your trash talking," Number One shouted after them but no one turned around to face him. "Pathetic. All talk no show."
There was no better way of establishing authority other than displaying your strength. The students would always disrespect him because of his White Talent unless he beat them up repeatedly to show they couldn't compare to him.
Was it arrogant and cruel? Definitely, but that was the world they lived in and he wasn't the one who established those rules. He wouldn't be surprised if the Academy encouraged that kind of system as if driven everyone to improve and increased competitiveness.
"You bitch! You are so done for!" One of Number One's victims cursed as he held his wound to stop the bleeding but Luna came forward to step on his face.
"Who did you call a bitch, you bitch? I remember you calling him to trash White Talent and look at you now. Bleeding on the ground after being defeated with a single attack from the man you called trash," Luna pointed out coldly. "What does it make you? You are now worse than trash. Can't even compare to mud from under his feet."
Luna's defensive side grew in intensity since the moment she became Number One's woman and he had to calm her down. He pulled her away and kissed her softly, "It's okay, he is not worthy to get mad over."
Just as he spoke, multiple Disciplinary Guards came out from the gate and they were even accompanied by two black uniforms who immediately widened their eyes at the fifteen injured lying on the ground.
Compared to everyone's expectations, they immediately rushed to Number One and questioned in worry, "Sir, are you okay? What happened here? Were you attacked by other students?"
The victims were taken aback as they called out defensively, "They were the ones who attacked us!"
It didn't cross anyone's mind that the black uniforms, who were basically the group leaders of the Disciplinary Guard, would actually completely ignore them.
"We naturally wanted to skip the queue since we don't like to wait but those two guards didn't want to let us through," Number One explained casually as he pointed at the two guards from earlier. "The rest tried to prevent us from going inside too so we taught them a small lesson."
"I apologize," the group leader acknowledged with a bow. "I was supposed to be waiting for you but I was called over to settle a small brawl. I forgot to inform the boys about your arrival which caused this inconvenience. Headmaster Blake informed us of your importance and he is awaiting you so please follow me."
Every senior student in the sky was looking at the scene as if they were hearing wrong. They couldn't believe a White Talent would have such influence and their faces filled with regret. Their expressions only became worse the moment Number One withdrew a vial filled with shiny Earth Rank pills and threw it at the Group Leader as if they were nothing.
"Those are supreme tier Revitalizing Pills. Distribute them to the injured first so they can recover quickly," Number One commented while walking away with the girls by his side. "That will be my first and last advice. Don't block someone's path if you don't know who you are dealing with."
Number One wasn't going to say anything else as they stepped towards the Academy when they heard a female voice from the sky. "That's a piece of very good advice. Hopefully, I have an opportunity to find out the answer before I block your path in the future."
Everyone exclaimed when they heard it and Number One saw a lady in a red Academy Uniform land behind them. Her face was covered with a bandana and he could only see her red eyes observing him with a curious gaze. She fixed her cloak while folding her crimson wings and walked right past them without even showing her student badge to the guards.
"I'm one of the Legacy Students named Aurora. You can remember it when we face each other later on."
