C36 (1/2)

The first rays of the morning sun shone into the valley. The students all walked out of their caves, breathing in the fresh air.

Bai Chen's injuries were severe this time around. Apart from the morning when he went to listen to his teacher explain the cultivation method of spiritual energy, he was unable to participate in the afternoon combat training. After this incident, Yan Le and Zhang Fu also realized that Bai Chen's situation was very dangerous. The two of them protected him from time to time.

”Big Brother Yan, you and Brother Zhang don't have to follow me around every day. I'm fine by myself.” Bai Chen advised Yan Le and Zhang Fu.

”Second brother, that Bai Lin Tian and Xiao Fei will definitely not let you go. We will not be able to rest easy on you alone.” Swallow was uncompromising.

Bai Chen's heart was filled with warmth, followed by hatred towards Bai Lin, Tian Xiao, and Xiao Fei. His lungs had been injured by Sun Yue, so it would take at least a few months for him to recover.

There was suddenly a rumor circulating within the academy that Bai Chen was cultivating in his cave. Zhang Fu and Yan Le came in from the outside and said, ”Brother Bai, Bai Lintian is going to compete with Qiu Yun.”

”Bai Lintian versus Qiu Yun?” Bai Chen was so shocked that he almost cried out.

When he came to Canghai Academy, the most surprising thing was that he actually saw Qiu Yun here. Although he and Qiu Yun had already broken off their engagement, it didn't have anything to do with each other. However, there had once been an engagement, so he still paid attention to Qiu Yun in his heart.

Last time, Bai Chen had only been watching from the side and had not met with Qiu Yun. Now that he heard the news, he immediately became excited.

Brother Zhang, Bai Lin Tian and Qiu Yun are going to compete? What exactly is going on? ”

Zhang Fu cautiously glanced at Bai Chen, as he was worried that Bai Chen would not be able to bear the consequences of his words.

”I just heard from you that three years ago, Bai Lintian proposed to Qiu Yun. Qiu Yun proposed that as long as Bai Lintian defeated her, she would agree to the marriage.”

”Ah …” When Bai Chen heard this news, he didn't know why, but he felt a sense of nervousness in his heart.

Yan Le angrily said, ”This Bai Lintian relied on his own master that was the vice principal to be arrogant and conceited. Younger brother, don't worry, sooner or later I will kill him and avenge you!”

At this moment, the news had already spread throughout the entire academy. Bai Lintian was the disciple of the vice principal Sun Yue. He was also a rare genius in recent years, so he was extremely proud of himself. Qiu Yun was also a rare genius. The match between the two of them was related to the engagement, which immediately caused a sensation.

All the new students in the valley ran over to take a look. Bai Chen, Yan Le, and the other two also ran towards the south side of the martial arts training field to the east.

To the south of Canghai Academy, there lived those disciples that had entered early. These disciples had entered early, so there was no doubt that they were all very powerful. When Bai Chen and Yan Le arrived at the training field, it was already filled to the brim with people.

Bai Lintian and Qiu Yun were geniuses that were rarely seen in the recent years, and almost all the elders recognized them. Thus, other than the disciples of the academy, there were a few elders who were also prepared to watch the competition. Bai Chen looked over and saw the white-browed elder and their teacher, Mu Yuting, standing below the stage.

The Martial Arts Practice Grounds was several thousand feet wide and there was a high platform in the middle. At this moment, Bai Lintian was standing proudly on the high platform as he coldly swept his gaze over the audience.

In Canghai Academy, Bai Lintian could be considered an influential figure. He was the master of an influential family, and his own talent was extraordinary. He basically looked down on the rest of the students in the academy.

”This Bai Lintian is too arrogant. Isn't he relying on his master to be the vice principal?”

”Humph, Qiu Yun can't agree to Bai Lintian's engagement and marry this bastard, right?”

”Qiu Yun definitely cannot agree to his marriage.”

Bai Chen nervously searched the crowd for Qiu Yun. He did not know why he did not want Qiu Yun to fight with Bai Lin Tian. If he lost, then he had to agree to Bai Lintian's proposal.

Yan Le frowned and said, ”This Bai Lintian should be at the high level of the Spirit Sect. I wonder if Qiu Yun can beat him?”

”I heard that Qiu Yun is also at the advanced stage of the Spirit Sect. The two of them should be about the same strength. I wonder who will be the victor.” Zhang Fu shook his head.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out among the crowd. Bai Chen looked over and saw a young girl wearing a light yellow robe walking out from the crowd. It was Qiu Yun. Compared to before, Qiu Yun looked even more young and pretty. Her bright and spirited eyes were filled with gentleness and beauty.

With a swish, a charming figure directly flew onto the stage.

Qiu Yun's face was as cold as ice. She harrumphed, ”Bai Lin Tian, I'm here.”

”Haha,” Bai Lin Tian laughed: ”Qiu Yun, you really kept your word. You wouldn't have disagreed with the agreement we made three years ago, right?”

”Bai Lin Tian, I promise you that three years from now, you will fight me here. I'll agree to your engagement. ” Qiu Yun enunciated each word icily.

Below the stage, all the students were in an uproar. It seemed that the two great talents of Canghai Academy would not rest until a victor was decided.

Zhang Fu said, ”Although Bai Lintian is amazing, Qiu Yun is not an ordinary person. Today's Martial Arts Competition will be very lively.”

On the high platform, when Bai Lin Tian heard that Qiu Yun agreed to the Groom Search Competition, he immediately became ecstatic in his heart. Especially when his eyes swept over Bai Chen below the stage, he felt a wave of satisfaction for his revenge.

Bai Lintian didn't think that even his master, Sun Yue, would fail. He wished he could get rid of Bai Chen even faster. He knew that Bai Chen and Qiu Yun were once engaged. Although it was removed, there had been one before. As long as he defeated Qiu Yun and forced her to agree to the marriage, he would take revenge on Bai Chen.

Thinking of this, the corner of Bai Lintian's mouth twitched. He wildly laughed and said, ”Qiu Yun, then I won't be polite.”
