Tianyuan Continent, Beian Nation, Qingxuan Academy.

Screams and shouts pierced through the air as voices filled with malice and ill intent became deafening.

“Whack her! Beat her up!”

“Only ugly women can create trouble like this!”

“A toad lusting after a swan? Look at yourself in the mirror before you do anything!”

“Miss Su, that was a good one!”

“A good-for-nothing actually hopes to win Mister Baili’s heart? She can dream on!”

A young lady with a beautiful face was wearing a thin dress with tassels that she used as a whip to whip another young lady on the floor, even though the young lady was already convulsing uncontrollably on the ground.

On the ground, the young lady’s sallow skin and petite body were already covered in bloodied wounds and she curled herself up as much as possible. She kept rolling around like an isolated young animal on the cold surface of the ground, but there was no way she could avoid getting lashed by that long and vicious whip.

Around her was nothing but excited and passionate shouts as the sorry state of the young lady on the ground brought out their sadistic side. They were so excited that their ears and faces were all red.

There was no sympathy in them at all, only a cruel sort of excitement and shuddering.

“Yun Qingyan, do you admit defeat or not?!” Su Ling loudly shouted with her hands on her hips at the person rolling in pain on the ground as she looked at her victim with a disdainful expression on her face.

“This disgustingly ugly useless thing hoped to win the affection of the most popular guy in school?!”

“She should take a piss and look at herself in its reflection first!”

“No… No, I don’t!”

The person who had been rolling on the ground finally managed to open her eyes to say these words with a trembling voice. Her voice was rather weak and feeble, but while it trembled from the intense pain she was feeling, there was also an incredible determination in it.

Her deep black eyes looked yearningly and adoringly at the handsome man in a white robe seated below the battling platform. Her infatuated gaze was filled with great love and longing.

Baili Qingxue was the greatest genius of the capital city. His face was like snow, his personality was aloof, distant, austere, and cold. He was known as Qingxuan Academy’s number one frosty male idol and was the flower of the high mountains that all the girls in school could only pine after and admire in their hearts.

When faced with those intense infatuation gazes from other girls, Baili Qingxue’s eyes remained as calm and distant as ever. He remained like a pure piece of frost that was untainted, crystal clear, and completely removed from the world.

But when his gaze met with the passionate and determined gaze from the person on the floor of the battling platform, Baili Qingxue felt his heart suddenly skip a beat, and a barely noticeable feeling started to spread through his body.

He frowned his handsome brows slightly in an attempt to capture this feeling, but he couldn’t find any traces of it anymore.

The gentle, elegant, magnanimous, and gorgeous lady next to him noticed the slight change in Baili Qingxue’s expression. “Qingxue, what’s wrong?” she asked him, feeling concerned.

After she asked, she looked with great sympathy and some tears at the girl who was still rolling about on the battle platform.

An evil and murderous glint flashed across her eyes, but it disappeared soon after.

“I think our dear Qingyan is not going to hold out much longer, so we’d better stop Su Ling before it’s too late. Qingyan might have done something that’s not really appropriate, but at least her feelings for you are real.” Lin Wanyue used both hands to hold Baili Qingxue’s hand tightly and her voice was filled with great worry.

The soft and gentle hands that suddenly stretched out to grab his made Baili Qingxue instinctively want to pull away, but he resisted the urge to do so.

He looked more gently towards Lin Wanyue as if the icy snow had melted a little. “No need.”

His voice was just as cold and icy as the first snow, just like himself.

Lin Wanyue was relieved when she saw Baili Qingxue’s attitude towards the fight.

She was glad that Qingxue wasn’t interested in that useless girl on the battling platform.
