The Rebirth Waste Strikes Back Chapter 81

81 – The Light Unicorn Makes An Entrance

Tianlan College occupied a very broad expanse of space. Qi Shaorong walked to the centre square of the college and saw the level eight Qi Family Elder heading directly towards him, with Qi Shaofu, who had a face full of embarrassment, following beside him. 

Qi Shaorong raised the corners of his mouth coldly and thought to himself: After such a long time, in the end, the Qi Family has still finally decided to shed all pretense of cordiality.

“Fourth Young Master, the Head Elder would like to invite you to return home.” Qi Yuan walked to Qi Shaorong and said.

Qi Shaorong looked at Qi Yuan up and down and asked, “I'm already no longer a member of the Qi Family, I can't afford to be called the Fourth Young Master by your distinguished self. As for returning to the Qi residence, I think we should just forget about it, I'm currently doing very well at the college, and I'm not interested in going back to the Qi Family. “

“Fourth Young Master, what had happened previously was just a misunderstanding. There is no need for the Fourth Young Master to be this stubborn.” Qi Yuan said.

Qi Shaorong said somewhat impatiently, “Alright already, let's stop speaking superfluous words. I said I'm not going back, so that means I'm not going back. What can you do about it?”

Qi Yuan looked at Qi Shaorong and said, “Fourth Young Master, you're so stubborn, then I have no choice but to offend you now!”

Qi Shaorong smiled coldly and said, “I'll say, this elder, I'm in a bad mood right now. There's no reason for you to cause misfortune upon yourself by going against me, unless you're asking for a beating.”

Li Hong, who was watching the situation from the side, couldn't help but frown, and he thought: The Principal's disciple sure was arrogant. Qi Yuan could also be considered as a top figure in the Qi Family, yet Qi Shaorong was so rude to this guy. If Qi Shaorong really were to return to the Qi Family, Li Hong was afraid that he (Qi Shaorong) wouldn't have a good time there.

Qi Yuan's face sank and he said, “Fourth Young Master, I've offended you.”

Qi Shaorong smiled coldly, brandished a stack of magic scrolls and smashed them towards Qi Yuan.

Qi Shaofu saw this action of Qi Shaorong's and couldn't help but feel a little envious. Qi Shaofu secretly thought: Fourth Brother's so cool! To use that bundle of scrolls, he was afraid that it would've cost almost ten thousand gold coins. Fourth Brother was really rich!

Qi Yuan was struck by Qi Shaorong and took two steps back, and his expression became even uglier by a few degrees.

“Fourth Young Master, the Family Head only wanted to invite you back. Young Master, you don't have to be so agitated?” Qi Yuan said.

Qi Shaorong raised the magic staff that was in his hand and said, “Old man, you speak so much nonsense, I'm not going back. If you want to force me to go back, then let's see if you even have the ability to.”

Qi Yuan: “…”

Qi Shaofu had originally wanted to say a few words of persuasion, but when he saw that Qi Shaorong's entire body was surrounded by curling wisps of black qi, billowing with killing intent, he swallowed down the words that were just about to reach his mouth.

“Since the Fourth Young Master has said so, then there's nothing I can do.” Qi Yuan said coldly.

Qi Yuan raised his hand, and a batch of wood and vines flew towards Qi Shaorong, twisting and winding. Qi Shaorong waved the staff in his hand, and the dark elements in the air suddenly wildly rushed forth. The clothes that Qi Shaorong was wearing were all made of interlinking crystals, which had a supporting effect on Qi Shaorong's magic, and the two people came to a deadlock for a while.

In the air, the cyan-coloured magic and the black magic continuously collided with each other, and many of Tianlan College's students were excitedly watching all the liveliness from a distance.

Li Hong watched Qi Shaorong and Qi Yuan fight, and couldn't help but frown.

“Vice Principal, this Student Qi's temper is a little hot!” Said a teacher beside Li Hong.

Just as the teacher's words fell, Qi Shaorong threw another stack of scrolls.

“The Principal's disciple's temper isn't only hot! He also likes to be wasteful! What he's throwing out there is all money!”

“Our Principal's disciple has a lot of money!” Li Hong said with some envy.

“The Principal is really something. He had hidden such a powerful disciple, and never even revealed anything. I had bet on Shenghuang College winning first place, and I ended up paying so much that I practically lost all my money.” The teacher who was standing beside Li Hong was full of sighs.

Li Hong said, “As a teacher of this college, you actually went and supported other colleges in winning first place? Do you even have a sense of honour towards our college?

The teacher by Li Hong's side blinked and said, “Vice Principal, you can't only criticise me! As far as I know, you also bet on Shenghuang College being number one!”

Li Hong: “…” How could this be blamed on him? He only knew that Principal Hu Feng had also originally wanted to place money on Shenghuang College coming in first place, but Hu Feng had then suddenly changed his mind. Hu Feng that old fellow really wasn't a kind and honest person ah!

Suddenly changing his mind but didn't even give them a heads up.

“Student Qi's magic power is really abundant!” Li Hong said, his face turning red.

“Right! Student Qi is performing a lot of big moves. Tsk tsk, although Student Qi has a heavenly spiritual strength, but he really doesn't know how to control himself. I'm afraid that it won't take too long before he's exhausted all his strength.” The teacher by Li Hong's side said, with an awkward look on his face.

Li Hong frowned and said, “Maybe it's because Student Qi had been contracted by Zhuang Hao, which gave him a huge psychological blow, and that guy, Qi Yuan, didn't come at a good time.”

Dark Sky Cloak, Dark Cage, Dark Shadow Bloom… Qi Shaorong repeatedly cast out big moves, so that even though Qi Yuan was an eighth-level mage, he could only passively defend himself.

Qi Shaorong bombarded Qi Yuan with hundreds of moves one after the other, and then finally stopped.

“Vice Principal, Student Qi seems to have dried up his magic reserves.”

Li Hong rolled his eyes and said, “He's finally used it all up! It's just like Qi Shaorong, that guy, to be able to endure up until now before exhausting his strength, if it were some other level six mage, they would've already run out of power eight hundred years ago!”

Qi Yuan straightened his expression. He had been getting beaten back without being able to make a move for some time now, and Qi Yuan's face was a little unsightly. Qi Yuan now finally felt a little more relieved seeing that Qi Shaorong's magic had dried up.

“Fourth Young Master, we only asked you to return to the Qi Family for a visit, why are you treating it as if we wanted you to go to some dangerous place [1].” Qi Yuan said.

Qi Shaorong snorted and said, “Who do you think you are, do you think that this Young Master is someone you can just invite over as you please?”

Qi Yuan sneered and said, “I never would've thought that outside you've been acting like you've never had a family to raise you and teach you how to behave, you're really ruining the Qi Family's reputation.”

Qi Shaorong snorted and said, “Idiot, do you really think… You've already beaten me?”

A series of golden lights emerged from Qi Shaorong's body. Qi Shaorong raised his hand and pointed, and a light unicorn jumped out from the spiritual beast bag that was beside Qi Shaorong. As soon as the light unicorn appeared, it caused a wave of clamors and exclamations.

As the saying goes, animals take after their owners. The first thing that everyone saw was that the light unicorn was draped in a layer of crystal armor, and its entire body was glittering and sparkling. Big bows had been tied onto the unicorn's ears, and the bows were embellished with priceless blood-red spirit gemstones. A big red flower was also tied onto the horn atop of the unicorn's head, and that big red flower was refined from a truly valuable blood gold. From head to toe, the unicorn was dressed like a walking gold mine.

As soon as the unicorn appeared, the crowd of students became stunned in a daze, and the unicorn's entire outfit caused the people around them to become even more stunned.

“Little Flower [2], send him flying for me.” Qi Shaorong pointed towards Qi Yuan, and commanded in a domineering manner.

The unicorn whinnied, raised its hooves and charged towards Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan's expression finally changed.

Qi Yuan's reaction was pretty fast, and he quickly erected walls of vine to use as a barrier.

The unicorn broke through eighteen rows of the vine walls before finally stopping at the 19th wall.

The unicorn smashed against the vine barrier fiercely, and the bows on both of its ears fluttered against the wind. The originally tense scene suddenly became a little more comical.

The unicorn battered the last wall of vines a few more times but was unable to break through, and it turned around and ran towards Qi Shaorong in an aggrieved manner.

“Vice Principal, was I mistaken, but I just detected some light elemental magic coming from Qi Shaorong.” The instructor next to Li Hong widened his eyes.

Li Hong frowned and said, “You're not mistaken, I felt it too, I never would've expected it, not at all! So it turns out that Qi Shaorong actually hid his strength during the Hundred Schools Competition.” He had thought that during that competition, Qi Shaorong had already shown all the potential he had, but he didn't expect that…

Qi Shaorong nudged the unicorn with his foot, “You lousy thing, you look impressive but you're useless, and you also eat so much.”

The unicorn neighed in dissatisfaction.

Qi Shaofu looked at Qi Shaorong's eyes, and felt a bad premonition in his heart, “Fourth Brother, please be merciful.”

Qi Shaorong's eyes, one was black like lacquer, the other was white like jade. A fierce gush of elemental magic flew towards Qi Yuan like a tornado. The dark and light magic elements were forcibly twisted and brought together by Qi Shaorong, and the two types of magics repelled each other in a tangled mass. When it fell onto Qi Yuan's body, it exploded violently, and generated a tremendous amount of power. Qi Yuan was directly hit and sent flying by this magic power.

The people in the college who were circling them and watching this, when they saw that Qi Yuan was lifted up and sent flying by Qi Shaorong, they immediately shouted with excitement.

Qi Yuan spit out some blood and fell to the ground.

“Who dares come to my Tianlan College and act wildly! Come out and show yourself.” Hu Feng's voice resounded like thunder.

When Qi Yuan, who had fallen to the ground, heard Hu Feng's words, his heart surged, and he spit out another mouthful of blood.

Hu Feng had very anxiously hurried back to the college, just in time to see Qi Yuan getting knocked down and looking at if he was on his last breath.

“Disciple, are you okay.” Hu Feng walked to Qi Shaorong's side and asked.

Qi Shaorong wasn't able to make the magic qi surrounding his body disappear in time, and his eyes were two different colors, looking so normal on Qi Shaorong that it seemed weird. The two distinct and different magic powers of light and darkness circulated around Qi Shaorong's body, and Hu Feng gazed at Qi Shaorong with some asonishment, feeling as if his head was going to explode.

Hu Feng couldn't help but recall that Zhuang Ling had specifically asked him in the past whether a person could practice both light and dark magic at the same time. At that time, he had thought that Zhuang Ling's thoughts were too spectacular, but it turned out that… That… His own disciple was actually cultivating both light and dark magic together.

Qi Shaorong glanced in the direction of Hu Feng, and couldn't help but frown. Hu Feng didn't come to the college alone. Behind Hu Feng, there was actually Lu Ming from Shenghuang College, and… Zhuang Hao.

Zhuang Hao's eyes were open wide, looking at Qi Shaorong, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

During the fierce battle, Qi Shaorong's hair band had already broken off, and his black hair was scattered and tumbling down his shoulders. The two elements of light and darkness were circulating around Qi Shaorong, making Qi Shaorong's whole body give off a bewitching beauty, it was reallyーMagnificent.

Zhuang Hao's gaze was fixed on Qi Shaorong, and his eyes were filled with shock and astonishment.

Qi Shaorong lowered his eyes and turned his gaze away.

When the unicorn saw Zhuang Hao, its ears fluttered with joy. The unicorn wanted to run towards Zhuang Hao, but Qi Shaorong gave it a kick, and it gave up on that idea [3].

“Master, someone came to make trouble and I've already beaten them down.” Qi Shaorong said.

Hu Feng smiled and said, “Disciple, you're so powerful!”

“I'm alright.” Qi Shaorong said modestly.

“Master, I'll be leaving first then.” Qi Shaorong said and turned around.

“Oh, okay……”

Footnotes:

Dangerous place: Literally "dragon's pool and tiger's den'.Little Flower: I swear, if Qi Shaorong actually named the unicorn "Little Flower"… That's ummm an interesting name lol. Anyway, should I translate it as "Little Flower" or "Xiao Hua"?Kick: So everytime Qi Shaorong kicks the unicorn, it sounds so violent in English, but it's not supposed to be? Like, it's more of a light, playful kick and it probably doesn't hurt. Although Qi Shaorong should stop bullying the poor unicorn haha, it's already trying its best.

T/n: Sorry about the small cliffhanger, we're going to have to wait until the next update on Wednesday for Qi Shaorong's secret to be fully revealed, but the cat's really out of the bag now. Or should I say unicorn? I think we can all agree that the little unicorn's appearance was the highlight of this chapter lol. Hmmm, I wonder what Zhuang Hao's reaction is going to be like next chapter…
