Chapter 34 (1/2)

A/N: For all the people talking about the pairings, please just trust what I'm doing. With Huang Yu's existence, some characters will develop differently. Also, Huang Yu will be with two people. One is confirmed Yuanen tho.

”Begone thot!”

”What? What's a thot?”

”You. Now go away.”

Ye Xinglan's face became red when she heard this. She may not have understood what Huang Yu had called her, but she could tell that it wasn't something good.

”You–” she was cut off as Xu Lizhi suddenly spoke up.

”Big Sister Xinglan, let's stop this. This was all my fault anyways. Also, people are watching! We'll ruin the reputation of Shrek Academy at this rate!”

Hearing this, Ye Xinglan paled. She took a glance at Huang Yu before gritting her teeth when she saw a smug look on his face.

Xu Lizhi stood in front of Ye Xinglan before apologising to Huang Yu. ”Sorry, this is all my fault. Please don't blame her. We'll leave now.”

Huang Yu just shooed them off. While this wasn't the type of thing he would do normally, he was impatient for them to go away so he could finally relax and eat good foods.

At this, Xu Lizhi grabbed Ye Xinglan's arm before trying to pull her away from the area. However, she brushed off his arm.

”Are you joining the Skysea Alliance Tournament?” she asked rudely.

”You're still here?” his voice came out slightly unclear. He had already put a piece of high-quality lobster meat into his mouth.

Ye Xinglan's face reddened in anger again. This guy was intolerable!

She toyed with the idea of showing this person his place at this moment, but she stopped herself. Their actions as they were were already besmirching Shrek's Academy's name. If she attacked him now, both her and Xu Lizhi would definitely get expelled.

With a loud humph she left. Xu Lizhi let out another apologetic look before following behind her.

Huang Yu merely sat on a beach chair, sipping on a martini and eating a lobster as this happened.

As soon as the two students of Shrek exited the beach, a person suddenly went up next to Huang Yu.

”My king… those heretics have besmirched your almighty grace. Should I send some ȧssassins after them to take their head as compensation, my king?

Goddammit Guang Biao. Why did you have to appear now?

Time passed relatively quickly and the sky at the beach quickly darkened.

Huang Yu, who had enough of the beach for the day, decided to pack up everything in his spatial ring before returning to his hotel room.

As he made his way to the door of his room, he detected Gu Yue through his senses. He played with the idea of going to talk to her at the moment, but eventually chose not to. He deemed that it would be better to wait for a few days before trying to talk with her again before entering his hotel room.

The next day, Wu Zhangkong brought the entirety of class zero to the competition area. There were a few matches for show before the tournament, but the one that caught the interest of most of the students was the fight between the Shrek Academy junior team and previous winners of the Skysea Tournament youth competition.

As the Shrek Academy team departed from the tournament stage, Ye Xinglan caught a glimpse of Huang Yu in the crowds. She looked at him with a dirty look.

Huang Yu merely whistled cheerfully and flipped the bird.

On the third day that they arrived at Skysea City, the Skysea Alliance Tournament truly began. Huang Yu went and signed up for the junior individual competitions as instructed by Wu Zhangkong.

He could have joined the youth individual competition, but he didn't bother to. The difference between both the tournaments to him was merely the difference between using one punch or two.

They weren't at all a challenge to him.

As matches went on, Huang Yu's name was finally called. However, to his surprise, the person he was going to be fighting, was someone he knew.

It was Ye Xinglan!

As they both entered the stage, Ye Xinglan seemed to have a surprised look on her face as well.

She had joined in order to beat up Tang Wulin who had chosen to join this tournament as well, but she didn't think that Huang Yu would also be in.

This was truly an omen of good luck for her!

Standing twenty metres away from each other, Ye Xinglan suddenly spoke up.

”So Huang Yu is your name...I really didn't think that the Heaven's would have eyes, to bring you directly to me.”
