Chapter 50: The Fierce and Domineering Xiao Yan
Xiao Yan's older brother, Xun Er, gazed at the figure on the square, whose back was slightly more slender than two years ago, but also a bit thinner. A clear and elegant smile suddenly appeared on his delicate face, making the surrounding male students envy him. At the same time, Xiao Yan's handsomeness also attracted the attention of many girls.
"Hmph, but what's the use of just looking good?" Although Xiao Yan was also a handsome guy in the Jin Nan Academy, in this environment where strength is respected, one's appearance is not the most important thing. What matters is being able to easily defeat strong opponents and then leave calmly - that kind of demeanor is what makes a man truly perfect.
Unfortunately, Xue Beng only had the strength of a 9-star Dou Shi, and his Gong Fa was only at the low level of Xuan Jie. He didn't have any heaven-defying advantages like Ye Kan did, so he basically had no way to defeat Xiao Yan. So he became Xiao Yan's sacrificial lamb to scare the monkeys, and Xiao Yan also used this opportunity to declare his strength to everyone in the entire academy! Most importantly: he wanted to defeat all of Xun Er's suitors!
Xiao Yan's display of strength was enough to intimidate a large number of competitors and even earned him some female fans. However, Baihe and Baishan, who were confident in their own abilities, would not give up without fighting Xiao Yan at least once.
The old saying goes: the enemy of an enemy is a friend. When it comes to increasing the difficulty of Xiaoyan's life, Xiaoxing Meng never slacks off. With his full awareness open and observing everyone in the scene, Xiaoxing Meng had already chosen those two to give Xiaoyan some trouble in his heart. Only with their mentality and strength could they be chosen by Xiaoxing Meng.
Xiao Yan had just jumped off the stage, when Xun Er immediately hugged him, and the two of them instantly ignored the whole world and set off dazzling flash bombs. Suddenly, whether it was boys or girls, a chorus of heartbreaking sounds erupted, which was particularly pleasant to hear. Especially Bai Shan and Hua Jia, who clearly felt the resentment towards Xiao Xing and Meng.
"Cough, cough." The intense gaze from the surroundings made Yu Lin unbearable, so she had to quickly separate the two. Then she prepared to teach Xiao Yan a lesson, but Xiao Yu, this proud and arrogant one, immediately ran over to help Xiao Yan get out of trouble, and Xiao Yan even took the opportunity to tease Xiao Yu.
"Alright, stop flirting here, today's selection match is almost over. Follow me back first, in the next two days, there will be even more intense battles. Wanting to enter the inner courtyard isn't an easy thing." Tutor Yilin waved her hand and ignored Xiao Yu, whose face had turned bright red from her words, and led the way out of the square.
The people of Class 2 of Huangjie also followed Ruo Lin's footsteps and left the square, each going their separate ways.
Deep night, quiet people, faint moonlight sprinkled from the sky, that unique building, in the moonlight, looks exceptionally quiet.
In the quiet of the night, a white figure suddenly flashed out, her toes lightly touching a branch, her body floating and sweeping onto a pile of rocks not far from the building, her calm eyes fixed on a certain room in the building, a faint silver aura seeping out of her body.
"Whoosh"
In the blink of an eye after the aura appeared in the White Shadow Body, a black shadow shot out from the building like lightning, made a few leaps, and landed steadily on a huge rock not far from the White Shadow. He slowly raised his head, gazing calmly at the white-clad man with a handsome and elegant appearance.
Two pairs of eyes collided in the dark night, without any warning, and burst out with some sparks.
"Leave her." The voice of the man in white clothes was flat and faintly ethereal as it slowly spread out.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan lightly laughed and slightly raised his head. His clear and handsome face, under the illumination of the moonlight, appeared even more extraordinary.
"What makes you think so?"
Faint words, wandering in the dark night without dispersing.
The man in white clothes stared at the young man with a cold gaze, without saying another word. His hands slightly rotated, and a faint silver aura was brewing in his palms. Moreover, there was even a low, muffled thunderous sound coming from within, spreading outwards.
"Thunder Attribute Dou Qi?" The muffled thunderous sound that came from the silver Dou Qi made Xiao Yan's eyes flash with a hint of surprise. He didn't expect this guy to possess the same rare Dou Qi attribute as his second brother, Xiao Li.
His palm slightly moved, and the pale blue aura also surged out from his palm. Xiao Yan's face was calm as he stared at the white-clothed man he had met during the day, without a hint of fear or timidity.
"The weak are not qualified to possess her." The white-clothed man indifferently glanced at Xiao Yan, who did not retreat. He sneered and tapped the tip of his foot on a nearby rock, his body suddenly transforming into a streak of silver light that tore through the darkness, shooting towards Xiao Yan with lightning speed.
"Bai Shan, what are you doing?" A silver light cut through the black night, but just as Xiao Yan was about to launch a ruthless counterattack. A slightly angry cry suddenly broke the silence of the night, and then a golden light burst out, only to be intercepted by the silver light in mid-air, causing a violent energy storm from the collision of the two energies. The fragmented rocks on the ground were blown flying in all directions.
At the sound of the jade flute, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly and slowly loosened his clenched fists. He looked up at the white-clothed man who had dodged the golden light and landed on a branch. A cyan figure flashed out from the pavilion and appeared beside Xiao Yan, her slender eyebrows furrowed in anger as she gazed at the white-clothed man on the branch.
"There's nothing, I just wanted to spar with Brother Xiao for a bit." The white-clothed man's gaze had been fixed on the green-clothed girl since she appeared, and he gave Xiao Yan a cold, sidelong glance. He then said calmly, "Xun Er, why are you in such a hurry? With Brother Xiao Yan's skills, if he can't even block my casual attack, how will he participate in the Inner Court selection tournament?"
"Bai Shan, I'm being polite to you because you're my senior. But if you're going to be unreasonable and make a scene, then don't blame me for not showing you any more courtesy." Xun'er said calmly, slowly calming down the anger in her heart.
Upon hearing this, Bai Shan's normally calm face changed slightly. Since getting to know Xun Er, although their relationship wasn't particularly close, in his own mind, they could at least be considered friends. But now, hearing Xun Er speak to him in such a tone, even with his composure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions inside, and his face turned slightly uglier.
"If you're a man, don't stand behind a woman." He slowly took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart. Baishan gave Xiao Yan a cold glance, his mouth curling up into a disdainful sneer.
"Bai Shan, don't go too far!" Xun Er's pretty face sank slightly, and with a flicker, golden energy rapidly condensed in her palm. Bai Shan's repeated provocations towards Xiao Yan had already touched her bottom line.
"Niezhen, just let the people involved handle it." A hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Xun'er's wrist. She turned her head to see a faint smile on Xiao Yan's face. From what she knew of him, he was extremely serious at times like these. After a slight hesitation, she nodded slightly and took a step back.
"You really want to fight?" Taking a step forward, Xiao Yan twisted his neck and glanced at the white mountain on the tree branch, smiling lightly.
"If you want to, I won't have an opinion." Bai Shan lightly flicked his white sleeve and said coldly. As soon as he saw Xun Er always keeping a distance from him, yet being extremely obedient to Xiao Yan, a surge of evil fire rose up in his normally calm heart. With his appearance, strength, and cultivation talent, which one wasn't better than this guy called Xiao Yan? So why did she always ignore him?
"I have an opinion."
A sudden chill ran out from the building, and immediately, Master Ruolin's figure flew out, looking at Bai Shan with a slightly unsightly face. In a deep voice, he said: "Bai Shan, you are acting recklessly, which does not conform to the rules of our academy. If you want to challenge someone, wait for the selection tournament to compete fairly. Sneaking in at midnight is not only unscrupulous but also gives you a bad reputation."
Lian Ruolin was also startled, Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly, knowing that tonight's fight would not come to fruition. He could only withdraw the fighting spirit into his body, pull Xun'er along, and slowly walk towards the building.
"Xiao Yan, I hope you won't be eliminated in the selection tournament. The weak have no right to gain anything. At that time, I also hope you won't hide behind a woman's back again. A man recognized by Xun Er will not be a weakling." Looking at the backs of the two people, Bai Shan said calmly.
"Whoosh"
A loud noise suddenly rang out. A strong gust of air broke through the darkness and fiercely slammed into Baisan's face.
Perceiving the incoming violent gust of wind, a cold glint flashed in Baishan's eyes. He bent his fingers and lightly plucked, shooting out a strand of silver light. In the end, it collided with the violent gust of wind, immediately shattering it into a cloud of powder. Fixing his gaze, he saw that the object which had caused the gust was actually just a broken stone.
"Don't be so sharp-tongued and quick-witted like a woman anymore. Are you Baishan? The so-called master of the winds is nothing but this, and it seems that you are an old hand at being quarrelsome and sour, but now you're using such sharp words to intimidate others. Let's see how you do in the selection tournament."
"If you lose, will you leave her?" Bai Shan sneered.
"Are you sure you're Baishan, not Bai Chui?" The footsteps of Xie Yan, who was about to enter the door, suddenly stopped. He turned his head around, looked at Baishan's pale face with a pitiful expression, shook his head, and led Yun'er, who was holding back her laughter, into the building.
"Go back." Looking at the pale-faced Bai Shan, Ruolin Master couldn't help but sigh. This person was usually very calm and composed, so why did he become so agitated in front of Xiao Yan today? It seems that his thoughts about Xun Er were still quite deep, otherwise, he wouldn't have lost his composure like this.
After saying this, Master Yu Lin turned around and floated into the building. Leaving Bai Shan alone, his face suddenly turned pale and white on the tree branch.
Standing on the branch, Bai Shan took a deep breath of the icy air, his fists slowly clenched, and muttered: "I didn't think that for her, I would be able to make myself so confused. So, she must be mine. That Xiao Yan had better defeat him in the selection match. How can the woman I, Bai Shan, have taken a fancy to run away? And what qualifications does that excellent Xiao Yan have to be with her?"
"Just because he's stronger than you and has a higher talent!" A sudden voice came from behind Baishan, startling him into a cold sweat!
"What a person!" Bai Shan had considerable confidence in his own strength, and could completely be unaware of standing behind himself. The opponent's strength may be stronger than his own!
He swiftly turned around, and what Bai Shan saw was a black-robed figure whose face couldn't be made out. At this moment, the figure was eerily using its foot to hook onto a tree branch behind him, hanging upside down on his back.
"A person who can help you NTR... no, defeat Xiao Yan." The black-robed man was naturally Xiao Xing Meng. He had been watching this good show all along. When Xiao Yan said: "Are you sure you're Bai Shan and not Bai Chi?" Xiao Xing Meng also deeply agreed. Only a fool would go for these unfair bets. Xiao Yan had once gotten angry with Nalan Yanran and made an unfair bet with her, so how could he be fooled by Bai Shan?
"Hmph, with my strength I can defeat him, why do I need you?" Baishan's face turned gloomy, being rejected by Xun'er made him very displeased, he said. "I'm in a bad mood, get out within three breaths!"
"Wow, I didn't expect to hear that from you with all the protagonist attributes turned on." Xiao Xing Meng said with a smile: "However, I love to send people who say these words into the depths of despair."
Loosen your feet and land steadily on the ground, Xiao Xing Meng pointed at Bai Shan's gloomy face with a hook of his finger and said: "First try to see if you can touch me, little white fool."
