Chapter 203: King of Being Impressive

“Xia Yan! Xia Yan, I love you! Xia Yan! I love you!” a female screamed continuously. Despite the chaos and commotion going on in the stadium, her voice was still extremely penetrating.

Xia Yan was a little stunned and she turned her head to look around, only to see Liu Chang struggling toward her.

At this point, Liu Chang was like a huge fan who was being pulled away and chased out by the security officers. She struggled and turned her head to look at Xia Yan. “I’ll do your homework for the second semester! I’ll buy your breakfast! I’ll place snacks, fruit, and yogurt in your desk every day!”

Xia Yan remained silent.

The security officer tried to pull Liu Chang away, who was maniacally throwing out Bursting Flames and “fireworks”, trying his best to push her out.

Liu Chang said, “Hey, don’t push me. I’m also a participant. I have to compete later. Don’t push me.”

Of course the security guard didn’t believe her, and while pushing her, he yelled, “Get out of the way, fan!”

…

Su Rou looked extremely proud in the live-stream as she looked at the “Hail The Mighty Goddess Xue” in the pop-up messages, feeling rather pleased. She smacked the table and said, “I shall see who dares to argue with me now. Weren’t I right about ranking Han Jiangxue second?”

At the mention of the previous topic, a slew of comments exploded on the screen.

Of course, it was undeniable that the comments were coming in rapidly because the lucky draw was over.

“Darned Pork Bun, you still haven’t told us who you ranked first.”

“Yeah, who’s in the first place?”

“Say something. Could it be Gao Junwei, who has been beaten up into a pulp earlier on? Haha, I’m laughing my heart out.”

“Gao Junwei is your grandfather. F***, shut up.”

“Hahaha, he got killed in a second by Goddess Xue. In a second~ are you angry? Are you angry?”

Su Rou looked at the name list of the second round and said, “Who’s in the first place? You guys will find out very soon. Zhou Cang from Qicheng High School.”

“Dotty? Haha, he’s my classmate. My brother is definitely a hunk!”

“Isn’t his name Zhou Cang? Why are you calling him Dotty?”

“During the banding Mandarin exam in Year One, he felt that the essay question tested for the exam was not up to standard. Hence, he wrote an ellipsis that consisted of six dots.”

“Hah, he did that during the placement test? Why was he being so damned pretentious?”

“Although he scored zero for the essay, he was still assigned to the top class after the final grade was released.”

“…”

“How impressive can this guy be? He’s actually ranked before my Goddess Xue?”

“He has a Star Technique from Below the Stars Level 4 in Dameng Province. Are you afraid yet?”

“???”

“Below the Stars Level 4? Are you kidding me?”

Su Rou’s live-stream was getting heated, and in Red Sun Stadium, Jiang Xiao’s team was leaving the arena. When they walked towards the stadium tunnel, enthusiastic cheering could be heard.

“Interesting! Exciting match!”

“Well done!”

“Awesome!” The string of cheers made the members of the team feel slightly stunned.

Amongst them, a girl with a bald spot on her scalp stood up agitatedly and put her palms together in front of her chest while looking at the members of Jiangbin High School gratefully.

She was the student who was cruelly trampled on by Gao Junwei in the Arsenal. At this moment, she looked at Han Jiangxue with such piety as if she was looking at a hero who had punished a villain.

Jiang Xiao and the others noticed that the young people on both sides of the stadium tunnel were different from the normal spectators and suddenly had a moment of epiphany.

It seemed that Gao Junwei’s team had really angered the public, but Jiang Xiao couldn’t deny that in terms of strength and abilities, the other teams were weak and seemed like they would inevitably be trampled on.

Now, the team from Jiangbin High School had defeated the one from Jiangbin High School No. 3, naturally becoming heroes.

The girl with the bald spot looked at the expressionless Han Jiangxue agitatedly and stared at her beautiful and exquisite face, her fluttering, black-colored tresses and the blue hair tie which seemed to be flying in the air. Watching as Han Jiangxue walked towards her, she exclaimed, “Thank you, Han Jiangxue. Thank you!”

Han Jiangxue kept on walking and looked up, but she didn’t respond at all.

She was not a hero who walked a glorious path. She just wanted to advance and didn’t want to have anything to do with the other teams.

Li Weiyi, who was leading the way, stopped in front of the stadium tunnel all of a sudden.

They were greeted with a team of four boys from Qicheng High School.

One of the boys took the lead and the center position, attracting everyone’s attention.

He looked rather pretty, with red lips and white teeth, and flowy hair. His slender figure and handsome face, coupled with his melancholic aura, made him look rather outstanding and eye-catching.

Fortunately, he was an Awakened. If he were an ordinary high school student, he would have probably been made to cut his hair short.

Li Weiyi, who was also a handsome boy, looked much manlier compared to him.

“29 seconds, not bad.” The boy flicked his shoulder-length hair, stretched his hand out to grab his hair, and stood in front of Li Weiyi. However, he shifted his gaze to Han Jiangxue.

Jiang Xiao bumped against Xia Yan’s shoulder and said, “Look how gentle he is. You have to learn to be a little more feminine.”

Xia Yan was dumbfounded.

The boy’s voice was very light and gentle as he introduced himself. “I’m Zhou Cang from Qicheng High School.”

Jiang Xiao deduced that it was definitely him!

The stranger student of this cohort had some peculiar Star Techniques such as “Soul Whip”.

Its effects were similar to that of Corpse Spirit, the Savage Sorcerer Star Technique. However, it was presented in a different form. It was in the form of a whip.

That Star Technique was from the Poisonous Vine Demon which existed in the extremely dangerous Below the Stars Level 4 in Dameng Province.

The Star Technique contained in this Star Bead was of Gold Quality, but unfortunately, Zhou Cang only managed to acquire the Silver Quality Star Technique that it contained—Soul Whip.

Even though it was a Silver Quality Star Technique, it was enough to allow Zhou Cang to dominate everyone.

Zhou Cang glanced at everyone and said gently, “I look forward to seeing you guys in the finals.”

“Zhou Cang? Why are you here at the competition instead of carrying the sword for your Second Master?” a strange voice asked sarcastically.

Jiang Xiao turned his head and discovered that it was another male student who had a long face. Looking at his school uniform, Jiang Xiao reckoned that he should be another contestant in the competition.

He had probably heard Zhou Cang saying that he wanted to fight the team from Jiangbin High School and was displeased with Zhou Cang’s disrespect for the competition and his opponents.

Speak of the devil.

A bright voice said from behind, “Zhou Cang, you can’t manage. Let me deal with them.”

Zhou Cang turned his head and looked behind before sneering. “Wu, you probably forgot that you crawled out of Qi City previously.”

Wu Haoyang turned red and hollered in anger. “Don’t you spout nonsense!”

Zhou Cang smirked slightly and glanced at Wu Haoyang from the side before turning around to look at Han Jiangxue. “Don’t go. Just fight in the semi-finals in a while, 30 seconds is enough.”

The students and staff in the stadium tunnel were slightly stunned.

Shortly afterward, the cameramen quickly approached like sharks that had smelled the odor of blood and managed to film the conflict that arose before the match from all angles. There were no blind spots at all, and the camera caught the handsome and dignified Zhou Cang.

As a rival, the male student with a long face immediately retorted in displeasure. “What did you say?”

Zhou Cang ignored his opponent and instead pressed his hand against Li Weiyi’s chest, pushing him towards the side and leading his team members through the team from Jiangbin High School.

Jiang Xiao could tell from the small action that Zhou Cang was fierce, proud, and assertive. In his dictionary, there seemed to be no such thing as a detour.

Jiang Xiao and the rest looked at each other in shock, but Han Jiangxue didn’t intend to play a fool.

Under her order, the crowd moved towards the locker room and seized the time to rest and replenish their Star Power. After all, the competition for the day had yet to end and they still had to fight another round in the semi-finals.

Wu Haoyang glared at Zhou Cang’s back view and stopped looking angry. He chided smilingly. “Hah, you’re still sharp-tongued.”

“There’s only a small difference between love and hate…” Jiang Xiao humped while walking past Wu Haoyang and brushing shoulders with him.

Wu Haoyang was dumbfounded.

Li Weiyi turned around in a hurry and picked Jiang Xiao up in his arms before sprinting like he was in a 100-meter race.

He was really afraid that Wu Haoyang would get into a fight with Jiang Xiao in the stadium tunnel.

Jiang Xiao was like a pig waiting to be slaughtered during the Chinese New Year. He screamed and struggled, but he still ended up being thrown into the locker room by Li Weiyi.

“Xiaopi, take it that I’m begging you. Don’t you understand Wu Haoyang’s temper? Let’s just enter the finals in a stable and safe manner and then clinch the first place, alright? Let me go back and answer to your Sis Qingmei,” Li Weiyi said while bending his legs and placing his hands on his knees. He looked at Jiang Xiaopi who had been thrown onto the seat in a pleading manner.

But Jiang Xiao’s attention was dumbfoundedly focused on the projected screen on the wall of the locker room.

“Xiaopi?” Li Weiyi asked in bewilderment before looking in the direction of Jiang Xiao’s gaze, only to become astonished as well.

After more than ten seconds later, there was a loud bang!

The locker room door was kicked open by Xia Yan. She strode in and said teasingly, “You two…”

“Shh!” Jiang Xiao exclaimed as he pointed at the screen.

Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue looked at the TV together and heard the referee’s voice. “Qicheng High School obtains the victory!”

The scene of two students fighting and going out of bounds, as well as two other students who had been knocked unconscious, was displayed.

It was obvious that the two students were bombed unconscious by the Bursting Flames fireballs.

Notably, vines were wrapped around the legs of the students who had probably got attacked because their movements were restricted.

In the scene displayed on the screen, Zhou Cang sighed gently and seemed rather bored as he ran his hand through his long hair starting from his forehead. He then looked up at the fluttering snowflakes in the hazy sky…

He said calmly, “It’s about to stop snowing. Jiangbin High School, come on up.”

“Wow… king of being impressive!?!” Jiang Xiao murmured while sitting on the chair.
