Chapter 182: Truly Exciting

Chapter 182: Truly Exciting

Wang Si departed unscathed from the competition venue of the forge masters, leaving the judges there to stop him.

As Wang Si broke records, Zhen Hua at the Forge Master Headquarters received the news and sent someone to make arrangements.

However, Mu Xi didn't have the same good luck as Wang Si. Some of the judges here were on good terms with Zhen Hua and held up Mu Xi to joke around with her harmlessly.

Leaving the competition area of the Forge Master Association and heading towards the individual competition area, Wang Si immediately spotted a guy with a cold aura.

The other party was also waiting for Wang Si.

There was only one girl, and as soon as she saw Wang Si, she walked towards him.

"I also participated in the youth competition's individual event."

Ye Xinglan approached Wang Si, still as arrogant as ever, but her eyes were full of coldness.

"Oh? You're participating too? Don't tell me my opponent had an accident and you're replacing them?"

Wang Si first looked puzzled, then his expression cleared as he realized something.

Ye Xinglan's face instantly turned cold. She knew her actions weren't honorable, but she was annoyed that the guy in front of her was so blunt about it.

"In this competition, as long as I can beat you, you have to give me what I want."

Of course, she wouldn't tell the teacher about that kind of thing. Knowing that Wang Si was backed by the divine blacksmith Zhen Hua, she understood it was useless.

How could she, as a student of Shrek Academy, possibly shake the status of the adopted son of a divine blacksmith?

Wang Si chuckled, pulling the furious girl in front of him. He shook his head gently.

"You probably don't understand me. I will never say anything that puts me at a disadvantage.

Of course, if you want to bet, I can play along. If you win, I'll give you what you want. But if you lose..."

Wang Si didn't finish his sentence, but his aggressive gaze had already revealed his intention! Seeing Wang Si's nauseating gaze, Ye Xinglan glared at him angrily, but she still maintained her rationality.

"You jerk, are you even a man? Why can't you just give it to me straightforwardly!"

With Wang Si's previous experience in mind, she didn't dare to say anything that might put her at a disadvantage, but that didn't stop her from being aggressive.

"If you want to bet, then let's bet. If you don't want to, forget it."

Wang Si spotted Nali and Nær and waved goodbye to Ye Xinglan before leaving.

Staring at Wang Si's back, especially the intimate way he held the hands of the two girls, Ye Xinglan clenched her fists.

How could such a disgusting guy have girls willing to get close to him!

She would definitely humiliate him later!

...

On the youth competition stage.

After adjusting her state of mind, Ye Xinglan took a deep breath and looked at Wang Si standing opposite her.

With the judge's order, Ye Xinglan began the process of soul summoning.

Ye Xinglan raised her right hand, and the soul rings under her feet glowed with two circles of light.

They were two century-old soul rings, and a long sword appeared in Ye Xinglan's palm.

The long sword was bright yellow, and its surface seemed to be flashing with countless stars.

Even in the daytime, the brilliant light was still dazzling.

With her soul summoned and soul rings revealed, there was no sign of powerful soul power.

This displayed an extremely strong control over one's soul power.

To have such control at a young age, one could only say that she was indeed a genius student of Shrek Academy.

However, the judges were well aware that this girl's opponent was also extraordinary.

In competitions like these, there would inevitably be various rankings based on performance, and that young man was ranked very high on the list.

"Why aren't you summoning your martial soul? Do you look down on me?"

Without giving Wang Si any time to react, Ye Xinglan charged forward, brandishing her Star God Sword.

Her opening move was a straight stab aimed directly at his brow, clearly a ruthless attack.

She took the initiative by releasing her martial soul and striking first, all while her opponent was still unprepared.

Could he react in time?

An ordinary person might not, but it was evident that Ye Xinglan's opponent was no ordinary soul master. With an odd step, Wang Si instantly dodged the close-range thrust aimed at his face.

Ye Xinglan's heart sank as she continued her assault, but her opponent's agile movements gave the impression of a nimble assault soul master, which was absolutely impossible!

To investigate Wang Si's strength, Ye Xinglan had deliberately reviewed his previous competition recordings last night.

He was a power-type soul master, a pure power-type! The best way to counter a nimble assault soul master was to engage in close combat, so Ye Xinglan deliberately left an opening during one of her thrusts.

She slightly slid her foot, causing her body to lean forward uncontrollably.

Wang Si seized the opportunity and rushed forward. Ye Xinglan's first and second soul rings were activated simultaneously.

A shield enveloped in starlight appeared around Ye Xinglan, supporting her body.

The long sword in her hand, infused with stellar power, stabbed directly at the approaching Wang Si.

If all went according to plan, Wang Si should have crashed into the sword and been unable to take advantage of the momentum to get up.

But Ye Xinglan was destined to be disappointed.

Facing the sword that was thrust towards him, Wang Si also demonstrated extraordinary physical control beyond that of a normal person.

He stopped when the sword tip was just ten centimeters away from him.

At this moment, Ye Xinglan remained in a tilted position as if she was about to fall, her long sword extended.

If one were to freeze this moment, it might seem like a young man reaching out to pull a falling girl back to her feet.

The young man spoke, his words piercing her heart.

"Why are you so careless? Do you need me to help you up?"

The proud girl couldn't bear such humiliation. Enraged, she lowered her sword, intending to support herself.

Old Six Wang Si stepped forward and kicked away the supporting sword.

Pap! The girl fell flat on the ground.

The fallen girl remained motionless, quietly lying there without any movement.

The judges and referees were momentarily unsure of what had just happened.

In the arena, Wang Si looked at the girl lying on the ground, her body slightly trembling, and stroked his chin.

Had he made her cry?

He approached Ye Xinglan and, grabbing her shoulder, lifted her up.

Indeed, the girl was crying uncontrollably. Facing her tormentor, she could only glare at him, her eyes filled with tears.

In the audience, the onlookers who didn't understand what was happening were left bewildered by the turn of events.

"What's going on? Why is this child crying during such an important competition?"

Then they saw the young man take out a packet of tissues from his soul guide and hand it to the girl. He pulled out a tissue, wiped her runny nose, and then...

He kissed her!

The audience erupted in a collective burst of delighted laughter, followed by enthusiastic cheers!
