Although they said there were two days off, the sisters of 302 Dormitory hurried to class the next day, welcomed back by cheers from their classmates as if they were heroes returning in triumph.
They didn’t bother with class for long, and soon rushed back to their club to discuss important matters with the other members.
Everyone knew that the upperclassmen would soon head south, but none of the underclassmen intended to back down.
Magical Beast Apprentices aren’t afraid of losing a fight—they’re only afraid there won’t be any fights to have.
Previously, the Witches had kept the upperclassmen suppressed, preventing club wars from breaking out.
Now that Shijietang Simon and the others had returned, the Witches no longer sheltered the Tea Ceremony Society.
The Tea Ceremony Society.
This was a club that made both the Tea Party and the Martial Arts Club uncomfortable.
Both major clubs looked down on the Tea Ceremony Society—it threatened Orange Sea Dream’s rule over the Tea Party, and it had stolen away all the first-year students from the Martial Arts Club.
This thing was the personal creation of Shijietang Simon—the so-called Fourth Faction.
All the veteran members of the two major clubs knew exactly what to do: they had to crush the arrogance of this overbearing first-year.
The teaching building of the Tea Ceremony Society would undoubtedly become a battleground for all factions in the future.
From this moment on, one could say that the God and Demon Academy finally revealed its true fangs—this was what set it apart from the Renzu Academy.
Since the Nameless Witch wanted to mend the flaws in the Magical Beasts’ personalities, why not let the Witches see what the Magical Beasts could do once united?
So actually, Feini’s evaluation of the Magical Beasts was off the mark.
She thought they lacked unity, but that wasn’t true at all—how could there be the Northern Demon King Army if they didn’t understand unity?
How could so many Magical Beast factions exist in the Demon Domain if they didn’t know how to band together?
Now, even in the tiny high school division of God and Demon Academy, several club factions had already formed.
Some Magical Beast girls, clueless about most things, at least understood the art of clinging to someone strong every day.
How is that not unity? They’re too united! Too good at banding together!
Compared to the Human Race, what the Demonkind truly lacked was a powerful leader who could unify all the factions.
Things seldom go as planned—club wars were still inevitable.
Even though Shijietang Simon and Orange Sea Dream both hoped to resolve things by having the main generals duel, their subordinates were no ordinary students; they were all hot-blooded Magical Beast Apprentices.
Could two dragon girls really stop a fight just by telling everyone to knock it off?
The return of the Lost Beast Squad was like lighting the fuse for war.
No faction would just sit and wait to be picked off; everyone moved first, and no one could stop.
In the end, only Feini and White Feather Dove, those true “go home club” members, actually rested for two days during the break.
First, the class president of neighboring Class Three, a first-year, was ambushed by mysterious upperclassmen on the way to lunch. He got beaten up and was sent to the infirmary.
The Golden Fang Beast Sisters were students in Class Three, so they hurried to the infirmary to check on him.
Because the class president of Class Three was one of the core members of the Tea Ceremony Society.
Lianjian and Yeqi stood by the bedside, surrounded by a crowd of Tea Ceremony Society members, looking at the battered face of the class president, burning with anger, their fists clenched tight.
“Who did this?” Yeqi demanded harshly of those around.
Everyone shook their heads, indicating they didn’t know.
“I… I fell down by myself…” the class president suddenly woke up, grabbed Lianjian’s hand, and said with difficulty.
“It was the upperclassmen, wasn’t it? Martial Arts Club people, right? I know these kinds of injuries,” Lianjian said gravely.
“Don’t go… They’re not ordinary Magical Beasts…” the class president said weakly.
“Get some rest.” Lianjian patted the back of his hand, forcing a faint smile.
She then turned and led the Tea Ceremony Society members out of the infirmary, her face losing any trace of joy as she headed straight for the Martial Arts Club building.
“Sis, let’s tell Simon first,” Yeqi advised from the side.
“They’ve already trampled all over us. Simon might be able to endure it, but I can’t,” Lianjian replied angrily.
This wasn’t the first time Tea Ceremony Society members had been provoked by the Martial Arts Club.
There had already been several physical clashes.
But because of Shijietang Simon’s orders, everyone had endured it.
However, this time, to use such underhanded tactics and ambush one of the club’s core members—if they kept enduring, there would truly be nothing left.
Previously, it was just minor scuffles. This was the first real fight—and right away, the club’s officer was beaten so badly that he’d be bedridden for at least a month.
Shijietang Simon’s plans were beautiful, but Orange Sea Dream wasn’t a fool. She’d already guessed what Simon was planning with her team-up.
That’s why, lately, Orange Sea Dream had been hiding away like a turtle, living inside the Tea Party club building and never coming out, never giving Simon a chance to catch her for negotiations.
Without negotiations, who would agree to a team battle to resolve the conflict?
Meanwhile, Club President Haime hid herself away, but sent her subordinates everywhere to provoke Shijietang Simon, disparage her, and smear her name.
At the same time, all Martial Arts Club members were mobilized.
Their methods were much more direct—this wasn’t just provocation, but violent assault, like what was happening now.
Now the first-year students knew—even if you signed the Contract of Gods and Demons and were supposedly under the Witch’s protection, you’d still get beaten up.
The only guarantee was you wouldn’t be killed or permanently crippled.
Our God and Demon Academy has the finest infirmary in the Demon Domain—if you’re still breathing, you can be saved.
Right now, the people lying in the infirmary the most were Tea Ceremony Society members.
By the way, the ones lying in the beds before were upperclassmen who had opposed Orange Sea Dream—beaten down by Blackie.
“Axue, what should we do now?”
Right now, Shijietang Simon was like an ant on a hot pan—restless and anxious.
Her plans couldn’t keep up with all the changes, and compared to the Red Dragon, her schemes still seemed immature.
But before Xueyuedai could answer, a student rushed in from the back door of Class Two, shouting,
“Simon! Bad news! Yeqi and Lianjian have gone to pick a fight with the Martial Arts Club! They said they’re getting revenge for the class president!”
“tsk! Those two idiots! Everyone, follow me!”
Shijietang Simon clicked her tongue in anger, her face full of fury, leading all the club members from Classes One, Two, and Three to charge out together.
A huge crowd surged off to support the Golden Fang Beast Sisters.
Clearly, Shijietang Simon’s level-headedness wasn’t much better than Lianjian’s—they both flew into a rage when provoked, unable to stand even the slightest grievance.
Everyone knew she only pretended to be clever—deep down, she was a strict, fierce “club mom.”
And when it came to a fight, no one was faster than the Red Dragon.
“No running in the hallways,” the Witch Homeroom Teacher said helplessly, standing aside to let them pass.
But her words had almost no restraining power over the students, and she wouldn’t stop them from skipping class to fight—if anything, she even supported the students’ infighting.
It’s long been said that the true core of God and Demon Academy is raising Gu.
If Magical Beast Apprentices don’t battle each other, how can the Gu be cultivated?
Now we finally see—God and Demon Academy wasn’t modeled after Renzu Academy at all.
It was modeled after a hot-blooded battle high school.
But no one realized this was actually a strategy to lure the tiger from its mountain.
As soon as Shijietang Simon led the Tea Ceremony Society members of Classes One and Two out of the first-year teaching building, a group of towering upperclassmen suddenly slipped in from the side, rushing into the first-year building and heading straight for Class Two’s classroom.
Xueyuedai and a few first-year Tea Party students were still analyzing the battle situation.
Their magic and magical beasts hadn’t rushed off to fight, and so they fell into the enemy’s trap.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Urgent footsteps sounded outside the classroom. Several tall, muscular, fierce-looking senior boys blocked off both the front and back doors of Class Two.
“That’s Xueyuedai, right? That’s her.”
The savage senior in the lead held a photo, and the younger sisters compared faces one by one, soon finding the Tea Ceremony Society’s number two, Xueyuedai.
“Throw her out the window. Even if she doesn’t die, she’ll be crippled—she definitely won’t be able to stir up trouble after this.”
“Give Simon a bloody lesson.”
“Be careful, she can use Frost Magic.”
“At this range, she has nowhere to run—she’s finished.”
The senior thugs spat out threats.
They had no pity for pretty girls in their hearts—only violence—getting ready to throw Xueyuedai from the window and smash her half to death.
Their methods were clearly professional. There was nothing student-like about them—they were like a gang of killers.
With only Xueyuedai and a bunch of fancy but fragile “noble ladies” by her side, they stood no chance against these thugs.
The girls’ faces blanched with terror and confusion.
But just then—
“Stay away from that girl.”
A quiet, unremarkable girl who had been sitting in the darkest corner stood up and stepped in front of Xueyuedai.
“What are you doing?”
Xueyuedai’s pupils quivered, lost and unsure—what was she thinking? Was she trying to get herself killed?
The senior thugs hesitated for a second, but quickly scanned the girl’s face, comparing it to their list of traitorous first-years from the Tea Party, and realized she wasn’t one of their targets—just someone jumping into the fray.
Of course, this was Feini, who had just come back from her break and returned to class—who would have thought her first day back would be this dramatic?
“This has nothing to do with you. Don’t bring trouble on yourself,” Xueyuedai said coldly.
No one had noticed this quiet, shadowy girl before, but now she insisted on stepping out and courting disaster.
“We’ve been teammates before—we promised to be comrades for life. I don’t ask to be born the same year, month, and day, only to die the same year, month, and day,”
Feini stood with her hands behind her back, trying to sound deep.
“…” Xueyuedai’s heart trembled at her words, so touched that her eyes shimmered with tears.
“I don’t care who you are, get out of my way!” The savage senior roared angrily, reaching out to grab her with a powerful swing.
His entire arm transformed mid-swing, revealing a beastly limb, razor-sharp claws gleaming as he tried to rip Feini apart.
But at that critical moment—
Another girl sitting nearby suddenly stood up. In a flash, a mysterious sword light tore through the air.
Puh-wang!
A rune-etched, shadowy sword pierced straight through the savage senior’s beast claw, splattering green beast blood all over the desks.
“Who are you? How dare you interfere with the Martial Arts Club’s business! Are you looking for death?!”
The savage senior was drenched in sweat, his face twisted in pain as he yanked his claw back, glaring at the dangerously alluring girl.
White Feather Dove didn’t bother replying, instead silently activating all the spells she’d learned in her life.
