Chapter 25: The heroine was slapped in public and sobbed to the villain

….

Qin Yu raised his eyes, and a trace of cold malice flashed across them.

Back at Shura Cliff, if Ning Bei had not tripped him up, he would already have obtained the Blood Ganoderma and secured a much greater opportunity than this.

The thought made his teeth itch with hatred.

The next instant, a plan formed in Qin Yu’s mind, so he walked toward Ning Bei’s party and said, “What perfect timing; I thought you were going to miss today’s trials.”

Hearing this, everyone turned to Qin Yu.

Anyone could sense the provocation in his words.

Before Ning Bei could speak;

Wang Teng and the others had already lost their patience.

“Well, well, if it isn’t the Crap King.”

“Ha-ha, just seeing him makes me want to puke.”

“What crazy wind blew on the Crap King today?”

…..

The familiar mockery made veins bulge on Qin Yu’s forehead… laugh, the harder the better.

Today, you will all become my stepping stones.

“Ning Bei, aren’t you going to rein them in?”

Before Qin Yu could answer, Lin Yueyao could not stand it anymore and said, “Is it fun harping on this all day? You have no idea what really happened…Qin Yu had his reasons.”

“Yueyao, summer insects know nothing of ice, there is no need to explain to them.”

Qin Yu waved his hand and said straight to Wang Teng’s group, “Since you look down on me, cut the crap and fight me on the arena if you dare.”

He could not beat Ning Bei, but he felt confident against the five Outer Sect disciples who had trained with Ning Bei.

If he defeated those five disciples in public, would that not slap Ning Bei in the face as well?

So what if you mentored them; in the end they would still lose to me.

The moment he said this, Wang Teng and the others burst out laughing.

“Did I hear that right? This trash wants to challenge us?”

“Ha-ha, Crap King is still Crap King; of all people he chooses us?”

They had just left the Shura Ruins and were itching for a fight, so they all laughed uproariously.

“What’s so funny? Qin Yu just defeated three Outer Sect disciples in a row.”

Lin Yueyao defended him.

Yun Qing also spoke up, “You go on one training trip with Ning Bei and come back so arrogant…do you really think victory over Qin Yu is guaranteed?”

At first Wang Teng and the others had treated Qin Yu as nothing but a joke; but when they saw Yun Qing scold Ning Bei in front of them, they felt displeased.“Elder Yun, you can’t say that; Senior Brother Ning helped us…”

Before they could finish their protest, Ning Bei interrupted, “Enough talk. Wang Wu, Liu Chuan, you five Outer Sect disciples get ready to spar with Qin Yu on the stage.”

“Rest assured, Senior Brother Ning, leave it to us!”

Wang Wu, Liu Chuan, and the other three thumped their chests in guarantee.

They would never embarrass Ning Bei.

Seeing this, Qin Yu almost laughed aloud.

Had Ning Bei sent Inner Sect disciples, he might truly have lacked confidence and, at best, lost gracefully without disgrace.

He never expected Ning Bei to send five Outer Sect disciples.

That was handing him the chance to show off on a silver platter.

“Come on, who wants to fight me first?”

Afraid Ning Bei might change his mind, Qin Yu hurried onto the stage.

“I will!”

Wang Wu stepped onto the platform first.

Below the stage, Lin Yueyao walked up to Ning Bei and said, “Ning Bei, I will ask you one last time…will you get back together with me?”

Ning Bei raised an eyebrow and said bluntly, “Are you out of your mind again?”

“You… fine, don’t come begging me later.”

Lin Yueyao bit her lip and folded her arms in a huff.

She felt Ning Bei would not give up until he hit the wall, and his current confidence all stemmed from believing Qin Yu was worthless trash.

Yet in truth Qin Yu had already turned his fate around.

She believed that once Ning Bei witnessed Qin Yu’s growth, he would no longer be so arrogant.

By then the fact that she alone had stayed clear-headed while the others were drunk on lies would be laid before Ning Bei.

Ning Bei would have no grounds to distance or cold-shoulder her and would instead have to admit her discerning eye and his own childish jealousy.

So there was no need to say anything now; time would prove she was right.

Whoosh!

Hearing that Ning Bei’s party had returned, Grand Preceptor Wuyue also hurried over.

Ordinarily a Grand Preceptor did not need to appear at a routine academy match, but this time he wanted to see the results of the group’s training.

On the stage Qin Yu called out, “Master, the Grand Preceptor is here, is that okay?”

“No matter,” the soul remnant answered slowly, “I cannot lend you too much power or the Grand Preceptor may sense my presence, but with a bit of aid plus your mid Qi-Refining cultivation, defeating mere Outer Sect disciples should be nothing.”

“That’s good.”

Hearing the soul remnant’s promise, Qin Yu felt at ease.

“Begin!”

With the Elder’s order, the souls of Qin Yu and Wang Wu instantly appeared on the divine platform shown on the light screen.

“Your name is Wang Wu, right? When you lose to me, don’t feel any psychological pressure,” Qin Yu boasted before the fight began.

After all, today he intended to amaze everyone and saw no reason to keep a low profile.

“Screw your mother!”

Without another word, Wang Wu launched a kick at Qin Yu.

“That’s all…” Qin Yu pretended to stay calm, yet his expression changed in the next second. “Wait, Master, why am I raising my hand so slowly?”

Bang!

A dull thud sounded the next moment.

The arm Qin Yu had just raised was instantly knocked aside by Wang Wu’s kick, which slammed into his chest and sent him tumbling off the platform.

Wah!

The sudden end of the fight caught everyone off guard.

“What the hell, Qin Yu lost just like that?”

“What’s going on? He couldn’t even take one kick from Wang Wu…who claimed that Crap King won three in a row?”

“Those three wins? Were you people taking a dump instead of fighting earlier?”

For a moment the entire arena was in an uproar.

Zzz!

Back in his body, Qin Yu looked utterly stupefied. “Master, what happened? How did I lose to him?”

“Do not worry, disciple, something was off just now,” the soul remnant said after a brief pause. “That boy’s spiritual force is extraordinary; you cannot judge his strength by cultivation alone, so your loss was not unjust. We will wait for the next opportunity.”

“This…”

Qin Yu was at a loss for words.

He had failed to posture and instead made a complete fool of himself.

Yet he did not lose heart; since the soul remnant said the opponent’s spiritual force was unusual, he chalked it up to bad luck this time.

To ward off ridicule, Qin Yu quickly looked at Liu Chuan and the others. “Fine, I admit defeat this time. Who else dares to fight me?”

“Very well, allow me.”

Liu Chuan stepped onto the stage.

And so, after the two were drawn onto the divine platform, the previous scene repeated itself by coincidence.

This time Qin Yu was still defeated in a single move.

Instead of laughing, the crowd stared in disbelief.

Next came the third person… the fourth… and finally the fifth. When all the matches ended, without exception Qin Yu lost to a single strike each time, and the total time was shorter than a single bout between two ordinary disciples.Qin Yu knelt on the stage in despair. “What the hell are you playing at? After all my big talk you made me lose five times in a row?”

“Rebellious disciple, are you teaching your master how to act?!”

“F*** you!” Qin Yu cursed furiously. “Get the hell out of my body; I don’t want you as my master anymore.”

Hearing this, the soul remnant, who lived off another, hurried to placate him. “Calm down, disciple; the five of them all possessed unusual spiritual force. This cannot be blamed on your master.”

“Ha-ha, what is the Crap King roaring about now?”

“Did he get beaten silly? Every fight ended in one move.”

“I thought Qin Yu had changed his fate, but it was all luck before; five straight losses are his true destiny.”

“I always thought it was odd. How could a part-time disciple win three matches in a row? Did he think our Outer Sect lives on air?”

In an instant the surrounding ridicule and mockery crashed down like a tidal wave.

“Why did this happen?”

Lin Yueyao and Yun Qing, who had looked forward to him with high hopes, now questioned reality itself.

They even had reason to suspect that Qin Yu’s previous three victories were bought.

Otherwise how could he be defeated consecutively by five Outer Sect disciples?

And each loss in a single move!

“Ning Bei, my words were a bit harsh earlier.”

Lin Yueyao suddenly turned to Ning Bei and apologized.

She felt that if she did not apologize, her relationship with Ning Bei would deteriorate further.

She had originally wanted to rely on Qin Yu’s comeback to muster the courage to make Ning Bei yield and admit his mistake; but she never imagined it would end like this.“Get lost,” Ning Bei said disdainfully.

“Ning Bei, don’t be so fierce…”
