Shen Xinzhu spoke composedly.
"You’ve really got an appetite. Aren’t you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?"
Luo Min lashed out with a claw-hand strike, shattering the door beside her with a loud BANG. She was clearly enraged.
She’d rather drop the charade and make a scene than be constantly threatened by Shen Xinzhu.
"You..."
Shen Xinzhu hadn’t expected her to just give up, choosing to blow the situation up rather than compromise.
"Decisive, are we? Fine. Let’s see which of us is tougher."
Shen Xinzhu snorted coldly, her own movents just as swift.
The commotion from their fight was so huge it had long since alerted the others on the team.
In just a few monts, a large crowd of team mbers rushed over after hearing the commotion.
"It’s Senior Sister Luo and Senior Sister Shen! Why are they fighting?"
"Amazing! Senior Sister Shen can actually last this many techniques against Senior Sister Luo."
"Yeah, Senior Sister Luo just broke through to the Grandmaster Realm half a month ago. I didn’t expect Senior Sister Shen to be this strong too."
No one dared to get close, rely whispering in amazent from the side.
After a while, the sophomores and juniors arrived. Soone hurriedly said to Wang Dalong, "Senior Brother, shouldn’t you go over and stop them?"
Wang Dalong’s cheek twitched, but he ignored them.
Cai Zhengyang, however, sneered. "What’s the matter? Feeling sorry for one of them?"
The person who had spoken flushed with embarrassnt and imdiately shut his mouth.
"What are you two doing?"
Just then, the assistant coach, Zeng Hongyi, arrived in a hurry with so other team mbers. The mont he saw the scene, he bellowed.
’A little scuffle is one thing, but they’re tearing down walls now! This is absurd!’
"Coach, she started it! She’s just jealous that I broke through first."
Luo Min said, sounding wronged.
", jealous of you? You should go take a piss and look at your own reflection!"
Shen Xinzhu retorted, pulling no punches.
"You..."
They gave no quarter, neither in word nor in deed.
Zeng Hongyi wanted to step in and stop them, but as a male coach who was only at the Initial Tier of the True Essence Realm, there was no easy way for him to separate the two won.
He hadn’t expected Shen Xinzhu to also be capable of erupting with power comparable to the Grandmaster Realm.
"If you two don’t stop right now, you’ll face disciplinary action!"
With no other choice, Zeng Hongyi had to resort to threatening them with the school regulations.
"Old Zeng, what’s all this talk about school rules? If team mbers don’t listen, you just beat them first and ask questions later!"
Just then, a lazy, sowhat irreverent voice drifted over from a distance.
Then, a figure in gray appeared, soaring through the air at incredible speed like a swift.
In an instant, the figure shot over the crowd’s heads and landed right in the middle of Luo Min and Shen Xinzhu’s fight.
"I’m gone for a little while and you all start running wild!"
With his left palm, the figure parried Luo Min’s lightning-fast claw strike. Simultaneously, his right hand ford a sword-finger and jabbed toward a pressure point on Shen Xinzhu’s wrist.
The two won were startled, but their techniques were already in motion. They had no choice but to alter their attacks and press on.
The figure didn’t hesitate, exchanging five or six palm strikes with the two won in a flash.
He single-handedly weathered their combined assault.
The vast surge of True Qi from the three fighters sent the shattered concrete bricks on the ground flying in all directions.
The spectating team mbers scrambled back to avoid the flying debris.
"I told you I’d spank you if you caused any more trouble!"
In the brief mont their assault was halted, the gray-clad figure spun around, stepped back, twisted, and landed a firm slap right on Luo Min’s rear.
A resounding SMACK echoed.
Luo Min’s body shuddered, and the circulation of her Power was instantly broken.
"Zhao... Zhao Rui!"
After a blow like that, how could Luo Min not know who it was?
The newcor was, of course, Zhao Rui, who had sensed sothing was amiss the mont he entered Mingcan Courtyard.
’He’d thought soone was causing trouble for the Martial Arts Team, but it turned out to be these two troublemaking beauties.’
"How is this possible?"
"How can you still be stronger than ? I’m a Grandmaster now!"
Luo Min was completely stunned.
Shen Xinzhu, standing to the side, fared no better. After dealing with Luo Min, Zhao Rui certainly wasn’t going to go easy on her. He aid a kick directly at her rear.
Shen Xinzhu had been concealing her Power, but seeing Zhao Rui actually try to kick her rear, she was instantly furious and mortified. Forgetting all about hiding her strength, she used her full power to dodge to the side.
"You think you can get away!"
Zhao Rui executed a Dipper Step. Distance seed to lt away as he instantly appeared behind her.
He landed a hard slap right on her rear.
"I was just going to give you a kick, but you had to be difficult!"
"You..."
Shen Xinzhu was about to go insane.
’In front of all these people! What about her dignity as the Saintess?!’
’Although she practiced the Charm Technique, teasing others and being teased herself were two completely different things.’
"That should make you behave! Old Zeng, the rest is up to you!"
"I just got back, haven’t even changed my clothes yet."
Zhao Rui strolled away leisurely. Each step covered several yards, and in an instant, he vanished from sight.
"He’s..."
"Holy shit! Captain Zhao is back!"
"So... so cool!"
"I think I’m in love!"
Both veteran and new mbers of the team cried out in amazent.
It was just like the poems say: "Kill a man in ten steps, travel a thousand miles without a trace. When the deed is done, brush off your sleeves and go, hiding your accomplishnts and fa!"
Cai Zhengyang’s eyes burned red as he stared at the two won’s shapely figures, his heart filled with envy and jealousy. ’Tch, what a fucking showoff! You get to have all the fun!’
’All he wanted in life was to hook up with a female warrior who was powerful, beautiful, and had a great body.’
’Too bad...’
Having been spanked in public by Zhao Rui, the two won had no face to remain. With a SWOOSH, they both dashed out of the hall.
They didn’t even heed Zeng Hongyi’s scolding shouts.
...
「On a mountainside at the front of Mingcan Temple.」
Zhao Rui, now clad in a gray Daoist Robe, waved a sleeve, sweeping the scattered, withered leaves from the doorway to one side.
Then, he complained to Miao Miaomiao, "The leaves are a foot thick. You couldn’t even be bothered to sweep up for ."
"You’re the one who went out to have fun and didn’t even think to co back and check on things. Who’s going to baby you? Hmph!"
Miao Miaomiao turned her head away, not bothering to engage with his whining.
’I don’t know where he picked it up, always complaining about this and that.’
"Maybe I should just find you a disciple to wait on you hand and foot!" Miao Miaomiao snapped.
"Hey, that’s actually a great idea. I’ll go recruit one soon. How hard could it be for a dignified Grandmaster like myself to find a disciple?"
Zhao Rui said with a dashing smile and a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, my *great Grandmaster*, final exams are coming up soon. How many classes have *you* attended this sester? Is our great Grandmaster going to fail?"
"Crap!"
A cold sweat instantly broke out on Zhao Rui’s forehead. ’Shit, I forgot about final exams.’
’Failing the class is a small matter, but the humiliation would be huge!’
"Why’d you have to bring that up?"
Zhao Rui sighed. "Nothing for it. I’ll just have to bother my old classmates again!"
Just as he said that, Qin Rui and Cao Guannan ca jogging up the mountain path.
"I knew you didn’t just co here to change your clothes."
Once she got closer, Qin Rui looked him up and down, then asked with a teasing smile, "So? Was it soft?"
"Ahem!"
"You’re focusing on the wrong thing. I was acting heroically to resolve a dispute!"
"Right. Keep up the act."
Qin Rui clearly didn’t believe him.
"Alright, alright. Can soone tell what’s going on with those two?"
Zhao Rui said, quickly changing the subject.
"We don’t really know either. Ever since you left, those two haven’t been getting along. And their Power has been progressing incredibly fast. Basically, whenever Luo Min has a breakthrough, Shen Xinzhu is sure to follow..."
Qin Rui briefly explained what she knew.
Zhao Rui’s brows furrowed as he listened. ’Looks like those two haven’t been behaving themselves while I was away.’
He didn’t say much more, however. ’After all, there are so things Qin Rui and the others aren’t ready to know.’
After chatting a bit more about the Martial Arts Team, the conversation shifted to Zhao Rui.
They insisted he tell them about his ti on Qingcheng Mountain.
Zhao Rui shared a few fragnted stories, and even perford a blessing Daoist Skill for them.
Reunited after a long separation, they had endless things to talk about.
Under a clear sky, a gentle breeze drifted past a few floating clouds, and the sound of carefree laughter echoed slowly across the mountainside.
「In a villa sowhere off the Dongqi University campus.」
Shen Xinzhu furiously smashed several potted plants on the floor.
"Zhao Rui, you dared to touch my ass!"
"Saintess, please calm your anger!"
The handmaiden, Youyou, broke out in a cold sweat as she listened from the side. ’That guy has so serious nerve.’
’It was always the Saintess who teased others; no one had ever seen her on the losing end.’
"Is he really that powerful now?"
