Chapter 291: Chenxing is Famous Again…

Yun Xinghai was being interviewed for the first time and was clearly nervous, surrounded so tightly that he couldn’t even move.

While Yun Xinghai was basking in the spotlight, Qi Diao Lingyi on stage seemed rather pitiful…

He had also passed the test, but no one paid attention to him.

People only remember the star of the show!

Still, he didn’t seem to care. To him, all this was just empty fame.

Soon, today’s Master-level assessment ended.

Only Yun Xinghai and Qi Diao Lingyi passed.

Two passing in one session—this was already considered a high pass rate.

Next up was the Grandmaster-level assessment.

It was Xue Bufu’s turn.

His opponent was Wudao.

The moment he stepped onto the stage, the crowd erupted again.

Many people recognized Xue Bufu.

At 28 years old, he had the potential to become the youngest Grandmaster in history!

“Old Xue… long time no see,” Wudao said with a big smile.

Xue Bufu nodded. “Indeed, it’s been a while.”

Then Wudao looked at Xue Bufu casually and said:

“But strictly speaking, it hasn’t been that long since our last fight, right?”

Xue Bufu nodded again. Back then, he hadn’t yet become Chenxing’s disciple.

He had just secretly learned a move from Chenxing and went to spar with Wudao…

And got completely beaten.

“You were too impatient,” Wudao shook his head, clearly familiar with Xue Bufu’s abilities.

He did have talent.

But even so, it was impossible for someone at his level to surpass Wudao in such a short time.

Xue Bufu smiled silently and gave Wudao a respectful bow.

“Please give me your guidance!”

“Boom!”

Wudao launched the first strike!

Their duel was no longer just for practice.

This was a real fight—there had to be a winner!

“Eight Diagram Palm!”

Xue Bufu shouted. His presence was overwhelming, drawing the attention of everyone in the arena.

Old Yue in the audience looked shocked.

What kind of martial art was this?

It could both attack and defend fluidly.

Wudao found both his attacks ineffective and his defense difficult to maintain!

“Boom!”

“Buddha Mountain Shadowless Kick!”

“Boom!”

Yun Xinghai had used this move before, though he didn’t shout the name.

But any expert could tell—it was the same technique.

Only this time, Xue Bufu’s kicks were noticeably more lethal!

Even the sound they made was different.

“Four ounces deflect a thousand pounds!”
“Thousand-Pound Drop!”
“Eight Level Burst!”
“Pine Nut Flicker Lightning Whip!”
“Sneak Attack!”
“Boom!”

A flurry of bizarre techniques left Wudao completely overwhelmed.

None of these moves had been seen before.

Not only unfamiliar, but downright mystical!

In just a few seconds, Wudao was flat on the ground.

The battle was over!

“WTF?! What kind of martial arts are those?!”

The crowd stared at Xue Bufu in disbelief.

His techniques seemed to be on a whole different level!

Wudao, lying on the ground, looked up at Xue Bufu in shock.

Impossible!

Just a month or two ago, it was Xue Bufu who was the one flat on the ground.

Now he was the one getting absolutely crushed!?

Suddenly, Xue Bufu’s honest, dark-skinned face broke into a big, white-toothed grin.

“Hehe…”

Wudao: ???

“Let me tell you a secret. My master is also Chenxing!”

BOOM!

The crowd exploded again!

The most famous person today wasn’t Yun Xinghai or even Xue Bufu.

It was Chenxing!

This man had trained the youngest-ever 14-year-old Martial Arts Master!

And now, also the youngest-ever 28-year-old Grandmaster!

If people found out Chenxing had only trained them for a short time…

They’d be even more shocked!

“Chenxing… he’s really still alive!?” Wudao stood up, stunned.

“Of course!”

When Yun Xinghai said it, people still had doubts.

Now that Xue Bufu confirmed it, there was no denying it!

And so, the headlines that day became…

Zombie News.

That’s right—“Chenxing and Little Zero’s Resurrection News.”

“Shocking! 14-year-old Martial Arts Master and 28-year-old Grandmaster Share the Same Master! And He’s…!”

Classic clickbait.

Last time, Chenxing became a hot topic because of his death.

This time, he was trending again because of his resurrection.

Of course, the most excited were Chenxing and Little Zero’s over one million fans!

“Waaah! Mom! My goddess is alive again!”

“Waaah…”

Some diehard fans burst into tears in front of their computer.

Suddenly, life seemed full of hope again.

Afterward, Xue Bufu and Yun Xinghai were taken aside by the president of the Martial Arts Association.

Of course, he wanted them to bring Chenxing out.

Maybe get him to spar a bit.

But they obviously weren’t in a position to make that decision.

Xue Bufu just brushed it off, saying they’d meet eventually.

Then they all got into the car to head home.

This time, Xue Bufu drove.

As for Little Zero…

She had officially lost her driving privileges.

They wouldn’t let her drive—even if she wanted to.

But she didn’t! Sitting in Chenxing’s lap was way better!

“Woohoo~ Big bro, did I embarrass you today?”

Yun Xinghai was over the moon.

He passed the Master-level test—and his 50,000 crystal coin bonus had already hit his account!

Being rich felt amazing.

“Big bro! Sis-in-law! I’m treating you to a big dinner tonight!”

Yun Xinghai raised his fist in triumph.

“Yay~ Big dinner!” Little Zero raised her little fist too.

Tonight was a celebration.

“Sis-in-law, whatever you want to eat tonight, just say it!”

“Hehe… I want meat!”

“Done! Meat it is!”

After some discussion, they decided—

To head to a riverside spot in the neighboring city for a barbecue camping trip.

Since Yun Xinghai was treating, Xue Bufu drove them all to a big supermarket in Kyoto to buy supplies.

Chenxing held Little Zero’s hand while Xue Bufu and Susu strolled alongside them.

Miaomiao and Yun Xinghai darted excitedly through the aisles.

They were like kids let loose in a supermarket after their parents told them to pick anything they wanted.

Miaomiao was thrilled—Yun Xinghai was actually treating!

Time to milk it for all it’s worth!

Usually, the guy wouldn’t even buy her a lollipop.

So stingy!

Soon, the group arrived at the Dongjiang River.

And once again, they were shocked by Chenxing’s wealth.

He pulled out a luxury party yacht worth one hundred million crystal coins!

“Big bro… you’re loaded…”

Yun Xinghai and Xue Bufu were awestruck.

Compared to him, they felt like peasants…

“Little Zero, is your husband some kind of rich second-gen?”

Susu looked at Chenxing in surprise.

His extravagant spending raised eyebrows.

These two were always playing around together. They didn’t even seem to work…

Where did all this money come from?

“Hmm… haha… of course not! Chenxing earned it all himself. Cool, huh~ humph!”

Little Zero giggled proudly in Chenxing’s arms.

Chenxing gently patted her head and said softly:

“We earned it together, silly.”

“Mmm… right, I helped too… just a tiny bit~ hehe…”

“You guys rob a bank or something?”

“Hmm?”

Little Zero turned to Chenxing, then burst out laughing.

Soon, everyone boarded the yacht.

Smoke from the grill began to rise.

Chenxing was, of course, in charge of the barbecue, with Xue Bufu helping.

The rest hovered nearby, ready to pounce.

The moment Chenxing finished a skewer, it was snatched up.

No one expected something as simple as barbecue to taste this good!

“Chenxing~ open your mouth~”

With his hands full, Little Zero picked up one of the skewers he’d just grilled and brought it to his mouth.

Chenxing smiled and took a bite, sliding it off the stick in one go.

“Hehe~”

Little Zero happily munched away, feeding him in between.

“Oh right, Old Xue. That martial arts manual I drew for you—go get it printed.”

“Then let’s open a martial arts school.”

Xue Bufu nodded.

“Alright… but…”

“But what?”

Xue Bufu looked at Chenxing.

“But you have to be the headmaster!”

Chenxing froze.

“Headmaster? That name sounds… like something out of a cheap fantasy novel.”

“Uh… that’s what they’re usually called.”

“Nope, nope, sounds lame.”

Chenxing waved his hand in disgust.

“Well then I’m not opening this school.”

Seeing how stubborn he was being, Chenxing thought for a moment.

“Let’s not call it a martial arts school then—change the name.”

“Alright, what should we call it?”

“Battle Academy.”

“Just Battle Academy?”

Xue Bufu looked surprised.

“What? What’s that look for?”

Xue Bufu smiled.

“Nothing. I just thought you’d name it something like ‘Ling-Chen Battle Academy’.”

Chenxing burst out laughing.

“Forget it. Better to keep it low-key.”

!!!

Xue Bufu, Yun Xinghai, Miaomiao, and Susu were all stunned.

Chenxing wants to be low-key?

He’s not showing off his relationship anymore!?

End of an era!
