Chapter 40: Fang Che, the School Belle
Chapter 40: Fang Che, the School Belle
Ye Meng rolled her eyes inwardly. These demonic cultists from the Night Demon Sect were truly... every word they uttered carried an anti-human aura.
Fang Che hastily declined, "Then forget it... Master, speaking of Xi Men Xuri, he's a genius of the Xi Men Clan and a chosen one of the Heavenly Deity Sect. In the future, it'll be like dodging a spear in broad daylight, but hard to guard against hidden arrows."
Sun Yuan nodded, "That's for sure. Neither the Heavenly Deity Sect nor the Xi Men Clan will let this go easily. However, we, the Unity Sect, will stand against the Heavenly Deity Sect. As for the Xi Men Clan... hmph, let's see them try to make a move!"
Sun Yuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Fang Che nodded, "Then I'll feel at ease."
Regarding this matter, Fang Che had already made up his mind. Since Xi Men Xuri was already killed, then so be it; it didn't matter.
As for the Heavenly Deity Sect's retaliation, Fang Che wasn't worried. The Unity Sect would block any attacks, and if they came with water, the Unity Sect would have soil to cover it.
As for the Xi Men Clan... since Xi Men Xuri was already dead, there was no use keeping this family that had sided with the Heavenly Deity Sect.
It was better to leave it to Sun Yuan.
"Master, I feel a bit uneasy."
Fang Che frowned, "I keep feeling like those two corpses are still floating before my eyes, making me very uncomfortable."
"Ah!"
Sun Yuan was startled and quickly said, "Quickly take a Calming Pill and go to rest. Sleep it off, and you'll feel better after a good night's sleep."
He patted Fang Che's shoulder and comforted him, "Although Xi Men Xuri is dead, don't take it to heart. After all, the sun rises every day, so just imagine he's still alive up there in the sun."
"Master, you're right."
Fang Che sincerely agreed.
Yes, Xi Men Xuri was dead, but there shouldn't have been a rising sun in the west anyway.
This made sense.
After taking the medicine, Fang Che went to his room to rest.
Sun Yuan was in the courtyard, feeling delighted.
The mission was already one-third complete.
Xi Men Xuri, the chosen one of the Heavenly Deity Sect, had been killed by Fang Che with a single sword strike.
If the Sect Leader knew about this, he didn't know how happy he would be!
He would probably laugh out loud, looking up to the sky.
That feeling of relief was what Sun Yuan was experiencing now.
"No, this matter must be reported as soon as possible!"
In the end, he still couldn't set his mind at ease. He went to check on Fang Che, who was sleeping, and sensed that his soul was stable, only then did he feel relieved.
He came out and instructed Ye Meng to take good care of Fang Che.
Then, he quickly left.
...
"Hahahaha..."
In the middle of the night, at the Unity Sect's headquarters.
Seal God Palace was laughing heartily, feeling extremely refreshed.
"Sect Leader, what makes you so happy?" Mu Lin Yuan asked from the side.
"The Night Demon has killed the chosen one of the Heavenly Deity Sect!"
Seal God Palace's eyes and brows were like blooming flowers, and his originally sinister face now radiated joy.
He had even forgotten Xi Men Xuri's name and only knew that the chosen one of the Heavenly Deity Sect was gone.
It felt so refreshing! With his hands behind his back, Seal God Palace coldly smiled and said, "After our sect unexpectedly suffered a setback, the Heavenly Deity Sect actually sent a letter saying... the Unity Sect is just like that, and only when a heavenly deity descends can things be done. They even mocked us... Now, our Sect Leader has finally let out a sigh of relief."
"Should the Sect Leader write a letter to the Heavenly Deity Sect?" Mu Lin Yuan asked.
"No need. That would expose the Night Demon's identity."
Seal God Palace pondered for a moment and said, "The Night Demon's identity is secret. Those from the Heavenly Deity Sect have no bottom line in their actions. They are despicable and shameless. We can't let them know."
Mu Lin Yuan agreed, "The Sect Leader has great foresight."
But in his heart, he thought: You're talking as if you have a bottom line in your actions.
You even dare to specifically target and kill their chosen one. How dare you talk about having a bottom line?
...
Early in the morning.
When Fang Che arrived at the Martial College, he was greeted with a wave of comfort.
"It's an unavoidable situation. In that kind of circumstance, no one could have held back. Xi Men Xuri's death is his own fault; you can't blame yourself."
"That's right. A despicable person like him is dead and gone. It's not enough to use secret weapons; after losing, he even tried to sneak attack. What kind of character is that!"
"Don't take it to heart."
Fang Qingyun's popularity played a significant role.
Fang Qingyun also smiled, genuinely delighted, "Cousin, you've now become the belle of the Martial College."
"The belle of the Martial College?" Fang Che's face turned black.
"Yes, the White Cloud Martial College. The Four Handsome Men are all from the senior grades. Since your arrival, as a freshman and the most outstanding one in recent years, we've decided to honor you as the sole School Belle!"
A female student was full of enthusiasm.
Fang Che: "..."
"In recent years, some boring people from other martial colleges have been selecting a School Belle from the female students, which has angered the female warriors. They ask, 'Do we need you to judge our beauty? What gives you the right to judge us?'"
A female student said, "But in our White Cloud Martial College, all female students have unanimously boycotted it from the beginning. So, there has never been such a boring affair. However, we can select a School Handsome, considering various aspects..."
Fang Che was completely dumbfounded.
So, the White Cloud Martial College was actually a society advocating for women's rights?
Male students couldn't select a School Belle, but female students could select a School Handsome? That's creative!
"But in your batch, no one can compare to you, so... everyone unanimously believes that you are the sole School Belle."
Fang Che's jaw almost dropped.
Not one of the Four Handsome Men... or the School Handsome?
How did I become the only School Beauty?
Me?
At the thought of walking down the road and being called 'Fang School Beauty', Fang Che felt like he could die of embarrassment right then and there!
He hurriedly protested vehemently, "This won't do! I won't be this School Beauty!"
"Objection overruled!"
Senior Sister Liu gloated, "Many girls had already decided this yesterday. Your objection is useless."
"..."
Fang Che felt the world before him turn dark.
"Speaking of yesterday, when you were attacked by Xi Men Xuri with secret weapons and ambushes, especially the fear you felt after killing him, it was so cute, pitiful, and weak... It made some of the senior sisters feel so bad for you... They kept saying they wanted to hold you in their arms and comfort you."
A male student spoke with a hint of jealousy.
"Hold me in their arms? Comfort me?"
Fang Che felt like this world had become surreal.
How could this be?
This sentence gave him a strong feeling of being a 'little cat, little dog, little kid' being held in someone's arms, swaying back and forth...
Fang Che covered his face and fled.
"Hahahaha..."
The girls behind him burst into laughter.
It has to be said that teasing a boy felt really good.
Especially when it was a likable boy, handsome, clean, and efficient, it made the girls feel even more accomplished.
This was one of the few remaining joys in their otherwise dull martial arts training.
Fang Qingyun caught up and handed Fang Che a stack of documents.
"These are the profiles of the other twenty-four winners. I have to say, many people are going bankrupt this time; the competition was exceptionally intense."
Fang Qingyun sighed.
"Brother, who did you bet on? How much did you wager?"
"I never gamble. I haven't participated since last year."
Fang Qingyun's face carried a gentle smile, "That's why my popularity is so good."
This sentence had a profound meaning.
Fang Qingyun didn't say it explicitly, but Fang Che immediately understood.
When everyone around you loses, and only you have a large number of points, it's hard not to be popular.
Moreover, Fang Qingyun has always been a gentleman with a refined and elegant temperament, making him even more well-liked.
"How's your recent cultivation going? Still at 7,400?"
Fang Che asked with concern.
This was like pouring salt on an open wound! Fang Qingyun's refined and dignified face visibly darkened, and he glared at Fang Che, "I'll beat you up if I want to!"
Seeing this, Fang Che knew they hadn't started the competition yet.
Otherwise, the Heavenly Lineage Fruit should have taken effect by now.
So, he nodded and said, "Brother, give it your all! I believe in you."
Fang Qingyun replied, "I believe in myself too..."
Before he could finish, his cousin interrupted, "You still have room to improve. You need to work hard. If you drop to 7,500, it's not bad either. At least, it's a whole number!"
Whole number... What nonsense!
Fang Qingyun's face turned green instantly.
Gnashing his teeth in anger, he shouted, "Fang Che! I'll beat you to death..."
But Fang Che was already running away.
Several girls surrounded him, their eyes filled with malice, "Fang Qingyun, who do you want to beat to death?"
Fang Qingyun, "..."
My friend, you've already betrayed me for my cousin? He's only been here for a few days!
...
Twenty-five to thirteen.
Fang Che drew the ninth spot, and this battle had almost no suspense, but Fang Che still delayed for a while, barely making it into the top thirteen.
Compared to the other twelve, who decided their matches within five moves, with five of them even winning with just one move, Fang Che's performance was embarrassingly poor.
Among all the students present, Fang Che's performance was undoubtedly the worst.
This performance was a sure sign of being the weakest in the top thirteen.
Instantly, the betting odds shifted dramatically.
Qiu Yunshang, Ding Jueran, Xie Gongping, Huo Churuan, and Mo Guanyun, each had over 30,000 points wagered on them.
These were the five who had consistently won their matches with just one move against all opponents!
In just one hour, the top thirteen were decided.
It was still far from noon.
So, the thirteen to seven competition began immediately!
Fang Che drew his lot, and his mouth twitched involuntarily. What a coincidence! He drew the sixth spot!
Mo Guanyun.
One of the top five favorites to win.
How could he stay low-key now?
As Fang Che pondered, a tall youth of over two meters in height looked up at him.
His gaze was as sharp as a knife.
Mo Guanyun!
Mo Guanyun was also eighteen, but his physique was as robust as a man in his late twenties! Standing there, he resembled a mountain.
Immovable and majestic.
Despite his height and build, his entire body was well-proportioned, making him look like a perfectly scaled-up human.
Thick hair and bushy eyebrows.
A straight nose and wide mouth, only eighteen, but his cheeks already showed the faint bluish tint of daily shaving.
His eyes were sharp as blades.
Long legs and tall stature, just standing there made everyone who saw him involuntarily think of words like 'majestic', 'robust', and 'powerful' that automatically popped into their minds.
