Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Seeing Liu Yuyang, Wang Xiao instantly beca vigilant. He subconsciously protected Zhou Xiruo behind him and stared at her as he asked coldly, “Why are you here?”
Liu Yuyang ignored Wang Xiao and smiled as he cupped his hands at Li Kaifu. “I heard that Brother Li defeated Yu Bo and obtained the advancent quota. Congratulations!”
“Thank you.”
Li Kaifu laughed dryly. “Who are you?”
Liu Yuyang was instantly furious, but he imdiately returned to normal and continued to smile. “I’m also a student of the Nine Heavens Academy. My na is Liu Yuyang. Brother Li, don’t you rember ?”
“Oh! So it’s Brother Liu! My mory is poor. Please forgive , Brother Liu!”
Li Kaifu greeted him warmly, but looking at his blank eyes, it was obvious he still had not rembered.
Liu Yuyang did not mind and only continued to smile. “Brother Li, no need to be polite. I’m just here to greet you. If we beco opponents in the next round, please guide !”
“Sure! Sure!”
Li Kaifu subconsciously agreed twice. After saying that, he realized that sothing was wrong. “Next round? Could it be that you’ve also obtained a spot to advance?”
“No, I was the first to get it.”
Liu Yuyang smiled faintly, but the three people opposite him were all shocked!
Wang Xiao subconsciously turned around to look at Zhou Xiruo. Their eyes were filled with disbelief. They originally thought that Liu Yuyang’s strength was ordinary, but they did not expect him to actually obtain an advancent spot!
After a short mont of shock, Li Kaifu returned to his senses and said politely, “I didn’t expect Brother Liu to be so powerful. I was blind to not recognize you… If we encounter each other in the next round, please show rcy and don’t let lose too badly!”
“If Brother Li ntions this, I’m afraid I can only apologize.”
Liu Yuyang smiled and finally looked at Wang Xiao beside him. “I made a bet with your helper. We have to shatter his lord core.”
“Break the lord’s core? His?”
Li Kaifu looked at Liu Yuyang in surprise and could not help but smile. “Brother
Liu, did you not sleep well last night? Do you know who he is?”
“I know. Kaiyang… Oh, no, Wang Xiao from the Yuheng Academy.”
Liu Yuyang replied indifferently, as if he was talking about an unimportant person. “If Brother Li doesn’t want to lose too badly, it’s best to persuade him to hand over the thing I want.”
Wang Xiao looked at Liu Yuyang coldly. “In your dreams.”
Liu Yuyang shrugged indifferently and looked at Li Kaifu again. “Brother Li, you’ve seen it yourself now. Don’t bla when you suffer a humiliating defeat.”
Hearing this, Li Kaifu burst out laughing.
Li Kaifu could not be bothered to pretend to be polite to the other party anymore. He directly sneered with disdain and said, “I don’t know how you obtained the advancent quota, but I’ve never heard of a person like you in the Nine Heavens Academy! Do you really think you’re important after I said a few polite words to you?”
Li Kaifu’s words were very impolite. Wang Xiao subconsciously took a step towards him. Xu Weiming, who was originally an outsider, also silently approached. It was obvious that he was guarding against Liu Yuyang suddenly attacking.
However, to Wang Xiao’s surprise, not only was Liu Yuyang not angry when he heard this, the smile on his face beca even more natural.
“Looks like Brother Li is determined to protect him?”
Liu Yuyang sighed regretfully, then shrugged indifferently. “In that case, there’s nothing else to say. I hope to et you in the next round of advancent—”
At this point, Liu Yuyang turned to look at Wang Xiao. “At that ti, I’ll personally shatter your lord core and take away her [vassal contract]!”
Wang Xiao sneered and did not respond. In his opinion, such a segnt of speaking ruthlessly before the battle was aningless.
After Liu Yuyang finished speaking, he sneered at the few of them and swaggered away.
“Pfft! He sure is good at acting tough!”
Li Kaifu spat angrily and looked at Xu Weiming. “Brother Xu, what’s the background of this Liu Yuyang? Is he very powerful?”
“If you don’t even know, how would I know?”
Xu Weiming smiled bitterly and suddenly put on a serious expression. “However, you’d better be careful. I t soone in the sa group as him just now. I heard that his thods are very strange.”
“Strange?”
Wang Xiao was imdiately interested. “How so?”
Xu Weiming glanced at Wang Xiao and did not say anything. Li Kaifu sensed sothing and smiled to smooth things over. “Brother Xu, victory and defeat are common in war. Moreover, you’re all my friends. Don’t be so calculative!”
“Sigh… I’m giving you face!”
Xu Weiming looked at Li Kaifu deeply before continuing, “I’m not sure about the exact situation. I only heard that Liu Yuyang seed to have found a [construction lord] and built a base after entering the secret realm. They’re not his match at all.” “[Construction lord]?”
Li Kaifu imdiately looked at Wang Xiao when he heard this. Wang Xiao looked at Zhou Xiruo. Their gazes t in the air, and there was so confusion in their eyes.
From the first exchange between the two sides, Wang Xiao could tell that Liu Yuyang was extrely utilitarian. He had a clear goal in everything he did.
Liu Yuyang had co to find trouble with Wang Xiao to obtain Zhou Xiruo, the [construction lord]. However, if he had already found the other [construction lord], why was he still targeting Zhou Xiruo?
Just as the two of them were puzzled, Xu Weiming added, “Actually, it might not be the [construction lord] because they didn’t see the base at that ti and were only eliminated by the attack fortifications. However, they said that it must be his talent in craftsmanship.”
Li Kaifu nodded and did not say anything, but Wang Xiao nodded in his heart. If Liu Yuyang’s helper was only inclined towards construction, then his actions made sense.
Either that helper was not an authentic [construction lord], or Liu Yuyang had spent money to hire him. In any case, no matter what the reason was, it was not as cost-effective to take Zhou Xiruo in as a vassal.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao returned to Zhou Xiruo’s side and whispered while tidying up the scarf, “Don’t worry, I won’t let him succeed.”
“I believe you.”
Zhou Xiruo smiled and replied softly. Then, she suddenly frowned and looked around. “Wang Xiao, speaking of which… don’t you think soone is looking at
“So be it. We’re not afraid of watching!”
Wang Xiao curled his lips indifferently. “It’s probably because of the lord competition. I’m already a little used to being stared at everywhere I go.”
..That’s true.”
Zhou Xiruo nodded hesitantly, but her eyebrows were still slightly furrowed, as if she still felt that sothing was wrong..
