Chapter 102: Concentrated Is the Essence (6)
“No.”
“How dare you say you don’t know me? I am Ximen Ya, princess of the Northern Frost Empire,” the girl named Ximen Ya roared, her beautiful face distorted in intense anger.
“What can I do about it? This young lady is very busy. I don’t have time to remember any random person,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly. In fact, she recognized this woman as soon as she walked over, but she just didn’t want to bother with her.
“You…” Ximen Ya was so angry that she couldn’t find her words.
“It’s my turn.” Leng Ruoxue ignored the fuming Ximen Ya and walked toward the stage.
Leng Ruoxue’s opponent was a student from the Flying Bird Academy. After she went on stage, she defeated her opponent in merely one move. She really didn’t feel a sense of accomplishment from ending the battle so quickly.
The other students of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy didn’t meet any strong opponents in the first round of the preliminaries, so everyone won very easily…
…
After the preliminaries and semifinals were over, the list of the top ten students was out. Leng Ruoxue, Ye Chen, Feng Moran, Mu Li, Feng Da, and Lin Yuan were all on the list. The other four were Huo Qing, Xiao Ye, and Pang Sen from the Lunar Shadow Academy and Di Fei from the Flying Bird Academy. Leng Ruoxue was luckier because she had directly advanced to the semifinals on the second day of the preliminaries.
“Tell me, what did you do?” Ximen Ya walked to Leng Ruoxue and said with a face full of anger.?How can this hateful woman be so lucky? I am Northern Frost’s most favored princess. This luck should be mine.
Leng Ruoxue looked at Ximen Ya as though she was looking at an idiot and then said to Ye Chen and the others, “Let’s go back to the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion.”
“Okay.”
“Stop right there! How dare you!” Ximen Ya’s beautiful face looked a little ferocious because of her anger.?How dare these people ignore me. They must be tired of living!
Unfortunately, Leng Ruoxue and the others ignored her no matter how she shouted from behind.
“Oh, there’s actually a day when our princess is ignored!” Shui Xinran walked over from afar and said mockingly. She was very happy to see Ximen Ya being ignored. She hated this arrogant and self-righteous princess even more than she hated Leng Ruoxue.?Hmph! How dare she compete with me for my Big Brother Qing. She’s really overestimating herself.
“Shui Xinran, with Leng Ruoxue around, can you still be the number one beauty?” Ximen Ya retaliated, unwilling to be outdone. For a woman who cared so much about her appearance, the blow of the sudden appearance of a woman more beautiful than herself was absolutely unbearable. This was also one of the main reasons why she hated Shui Xinran and Leng Ruoxue. As for the other main reason, of course it was men.
“You don’t have to worry about that. Even if I can’t become the number one beauty, my rank will still be ahead of yours,” Shui Xinran said through clenched teeth.?Damn woman!
“Are you done bickering?” Huo Qing walked over with a stern face.
“Big Brother Qing!”
After seeing Huo Qing, the two mutually hostile women immediately became well-behaved.
“Hmph! What a disgrace!” Huo Qing said coldly and left without looking back.
“Big Brother Qing, wait for me!” the two women said in unison. They glared at each other as they spoke and then chased after Huo Qing.
…
After the semifinals, there would be two days to rest. Because the competition was almost over, the students of the other academies had basically returned to their academies except for the top ten academies. Only one elder from each academy stayed behind as the representative to watch the competition.
After returning to the Elegant Lagoon Pavilion, Leng Ruoxue and the others returned to their rooms to rest. Many families had wanted to see them during this period, but she had asked Elder Qiu to stop them. Moreover, there were regulations during the Academy Competition that the various prominent families were not allowed to harass the students and affect the competition. It was precisely because of this rigid rule that these families became much more well-behaved, but there were also some who didn’t abide by the rule.
The first thing Leng Ruoxue did after returning to her room was to have a good night’s sleep. After waking up, she went to the restaurant downstairs to have breakfast. She had just started to order when Ye Chen and Big Brother Feng came down together.
“Xue’er, we thought you were still asleep,” Feng Moran said. They were already used to Xue’er’s hobby of sleeping.
“I just woke up,” Leng Ruoxue said. She actually slept all the way to the next day, and it was almost noon.
“I want the same thing she ordered.” Ye Chen said to the waiter.
“Me too,” Feng Moran said.
“Can we sit together?” Huo Qing and a few others walked downstairs and saw Leng Ruoxue and the other two.
“Can I say no?” Leng Ruoxue was a little annoyed.?Why are there always women at Huo Qing’s side? This time, he actually brought two, Shui Xinran and Ximen Ya.?These two women just happened to be very hostile to her. Eating was originally a very happy and satisfying thing, but who could still eat with such unpleasant people around!
“Young Master Huo, our table can’t fit so many people,” Feng Moran said politely. Ordinary people would find an excuse to leave when they heard him decline so tactfully, but he obviously underestimated Huo Qing’s thick skin.
“It’s okay. Just set up another table,” Huo Qing said nonchalantly and called the innkeeper over. In fact, he didn’t know why he wanted to be here. But he knew very well that Leng Ruoxue’s direct refusal displeased him greatly.
The innkeeper quickly arranged for people to arrange two tables together. Huo Qing sat opposite Leng Ruoxue, with Shui Xinran and Ximen Ya sitting on his sides. On Shui Xinran’s left side was Feng Moran, and on Ximen Ya’s right was Ye Chen. Ximen Ya saw the men she liked sitting on her left and right sides and was so happy that she was about to fly to the moon. But her beautiful dream was quickly broken.
“Move aside. This is my seat.” Feng Da brought a chair over, placed it between Ye Chen and Ximen Ya, and sat down despite the crowd.?Deputy Leader Ye is our young lady’s man. How dare this woman covet him. She must be tired of living!
