6 a.m. Morning again.
âKeng!â
Sparks rose around us in the Great Hall of the Dragonâs Den. My Zhen Yue Sword and Dragon Reservoir Sword unleashed two consecutive strikes to forcibly break the first hit of Wan Erâs [Blade of the Death God]. Simultaneously, I suddenly looked behind, and used my knee to heavily break apart her second attack. My Dragon Reservoir Sword also flashed at the same time, and it struck the tip of her blade on the third attack. My cloak flew upwards, and I relaxed my body as I avoided her strike and smashed my sword hilt on to the little missâ right shoulder. Immediately, Wan Er let out an âAhâ sound when I struck a cluster of nerves and I broke through her third attack!
âWuâ¦â
Wan Er consecutively retreated several steps. I ran out and caught her slender waist. And asked, âAre you ok?â
âYup.â
Wan Er stood up and massaged her arm. After that, she looked at me and smiled: âPig, you managed to break through the three consecutive strikes of [Blade of the Death God] after one night only. Youâre truly not simpleâ¦â
I face palmed and laughed: âOf course! Or else, how could I be fit for our unrivaled Wan Er!â
âIs that true?â She naughtily laughed: âThen do you want to go again one more time?â
âSure!â
During the Nth duel that night, Wan Er still charged over as before. But, in the instant that she approached me, she ingeniously slid her feet, moving her to the side by 0.5 meters. She activated [Blade of the Death God] from my flank. Its speed was too fast, and the time that I had to respond to it was also less. But, I still managed to quickly determine the angle and force.Without a second thought, I swung both of my swords. âKeng kengâ I broke the first attack. However, it was too late for me to block the second and third attacks. All I could do was attempt to weakly block the attacks. Moreover, I couldnât block it at all, and took damage twice. The beautiful little miss was too evil, she was using different maneuversâ¦
âHow is it?â
With one hand on her hip and the other flicking her dagger, she smiled, âYou big idiotâ¦once I slightly maneuvered, you werenât even close to blocking it at all. Q-Sword and Jian Feng Han arenât idiots. Their angles and strength will slightly change during every attack. Your Pulse Break Style is much more difficult than getting health insurance.â
I nodded my head deep in thought: âYup, butâ¦itâs already 7 oâclock, it seems that thereâs class todayâ¦â
âYeah, and itâs also a compulsory classâ¦â
âAre you going?â
âIâm going. Do you think Iâm class-skipper like you?â
âHavenât you skipped class a few times too? Go wake that other class-skipper up. Weâll go to class togetherâ¦Iâm gonna go wash up a bit, then weâll head to class after eating breakfast together. You also have to wake those chefs up, they probably donât know that weâre going to class todayâ¦â
âFineâ¦â
That afternoon, less than 50% of the spots were filled up in the big lecture theatre. The old professor stood on the platform at the front of the class and talked about the changes in culture in Cao Yuzhangâs three history books, while spitting saliva. Dong Cheng stuck out her tender chest as she leaned onto her textbook, fully concentrated on the lecture. On the other hand, Wan Er was leaning her head on Dong Chengâs shoulder, her beautiful eyes squinted as she tried to take a nap. Every few minutes, she would open her right eye to see if anything had happened. After seeing that the old professor wasnât looking at her, she would narrow her eyes and sleep like a beautiful little lazy cat.
I rested on the seat, and daydreamed. Not long after, Tang Gu who was sitting behind me jabbed my back, and whispered: âIdiot, youâre snoringâ¦â
I was startled and woke up: âImpossible, Iâm such a cultured and refined youngster, how could I snore while Iâm sleeping?â
Tang Qi grinned, âMother f*cker, donât tease himâ¦â
Dong Cheng pushed off Wan Er who was on her shoulder, and said: âMy armâs sore. Brother Xiao Yao, take your familyâs Cang Tong awayâ¦â
I was speechless. I extended my arm out, and Wan Er narrowed her eyes and looked at me. A beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as she hugged my arm. She then hugged me like a little cat and slept again. This intimate action immediately made the surrounding group of pursuers green in the face. They were all clenching their fists, wanting to buy a shotgun and kill me from 50 meters away.
Tang Gu was feeling so sour that he was about to rage quit. He pointed at Wan Er who was in my embrace, and let out an âAh ah ahâ sound. But he didnât do anything more than that, because I had already raised my right arm. Tang Gu already knew that he couldnât beat me. A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. He could only rub his nose and say: âThis world is truly unfair, letting the pig get the good thingsâ¦â
Dong Cheng giggled: âThe nickname of Pig for our Brother Xiao Yaoâ¦seems to be fitting. However, I actually feel that, within this class, the male student that can match with our Wan Er is only this pig Brother Xiao Yao. If it was another man, then that would be casting pearls before a swineâ¦â
Tang Guâs entire body trembled: âBeautiful Dong Cheng, are you secretly mocking me?â
Dong Cheng innocently spread out her hands: âNope, Iâm only slapping your face in front of youâ¦â
Tang Qi rubbed his face: âWhy do I feel like Iâm being shot by a gunâ¦â
The group of male students behind us all said: âWe all feel like weâve been shot! Brother Tang Qi, letâs all gang up on that brat Li Xiao Yao! We know that youâve trained yourself!â
Tang Qi laid on the table, narrowing his eyes, as he prepared to sleep. He lazily said: âDonât be noisy, Iâve tried. I couldnât beat him.â
Wan Er opened her drowsy eyes: âDonât be so noisy, your voice is louder than the teacher. Are you going to let us sleepâ¦â
At that moment, the old professor also pushed his glasses up, and said: âHey, front row, please reduce your speaking voices. Donât wake up the sleeping students in the back row. Everyone must respect each other.â
Dong Cheng: ââ¦â
It was almost noon. The ring of the bell that signified the end of class woke Wan Er up, and at the same time, huge waves were also raised inside the classroom. A group of male students were excitedly shouting over there.
âWhat are they doing?â Dong Cheng was somewhat astounded.
Tang Gu replied: âIâll go ask!â
In the end, Tang Gu ran back after half a minute, with a face full of excitement as he said: âAfter 72 hours, the preliminaries for the Heroâs Wings tournament is going to start! China has 3 spaces available for teams!â
âSo itâs thisâ¦â I faintly smiled.
Wan Er rubbed her eyes: âPig, letâs go eat.â
I nodded my head: âAlright.â
Tang Gu: âWhy are you guys not excited at all!â
Wan Er pulled my arm and took me out the door, as she said: âPig, weâll go register in the afternoon.â
âSureâ¦â
Tang Gu: ââ¦â
â¦â¦
Around 1 oâclock in the afternoon, we returned to our small villa and walked upstairs. Letâs prepare to register ourselves!
âSwoosh!â
I appeared in Tian Ling City, and I heard the sound of a bell echo out once I stepped in--
âDing!â
System Notification: Respected players, you have already fulfilled the requirements for participating in the Heroâs Wings tournament. The registration will end after 71 hours. Quickly choose 4 powerful companions to participate in this journey of the Heroâs Wings that is filled with passion and hot blood! Maybe, if the God of Fortune descends on you, you can also hold up the trophy of the Heroâs Wings!
OK, as expected, I could already register. Letâs immediately gather companions!
Within the [Zhan Long] guild, it was also unusually lively. Everyone was chatting about assembling a team.
Li Mu: âD*mm*t, team this team that. Fine, weâll just go as the General Familyâ¦Me, Wang Jian, Bai Qi, Lian Po, and weâll just take Thousand League Springâ¦â
Wolf: âWhoa donât, donât snatch younger sister Springâ¦â
Bai Qi: âLittle Wolf you bastard, when was she your younger sister Springâ¦â
I said: âStop fighting, stop fighting. Talk it over nicelyâ¦â
Wolf cunningly laughed: âThatâs fine. Weâll give Thousand League Spring to you guys. My group will be Matcha, Old K, Yue Wei Liang, and Dancing Forest. Itâs quite powerfulâ¦â
Dancing Forest: âOh, I have a team, how niceâ¦â
Fox: âF*cker, so youâre mercilessly throwing me away like thisâ¦â
Thousand Suns Over Snowy Lands laughed: âGlass Fox, just come over to my team. We already have me, Moon Feather, Tang Xin, and One Second Hero.â
Fox: âSure!â
Li Meng Yao said: âBrother, brother!â
Me: âYup, Meng Yao?â
Meng Yao: âIf I can also get to Level 100 for the competition. How about I join sister Yue Yao Yanâs team?â
âFine, then thatâs settled!â
âYup yupâ¦â
â¦â¦
I closed the guild chat. Anyway, [Zhan Long]âs first team was already confirmed. I immediately started building the team. The four beauties Wan Er, Dong Cheng, Qing Qian, and Darling Duck entered the team in succession. After we were all in, I laughed: âOK, next, I have to bring the four great beauties from [Zhan Long] to the journey of the Heroâs Wings. Where do we go to sign up?â
Wan Er replied: âThereâs a Special NPC for the Heroâs Wings tournament in the east gateâs plaza. We can register there after paying the fee.â
âAlright. Then quickly come over!â
âOkay!â
After a few minutes, the 4 beautiful girls from my team appeared. This east gateâs plaza was so full that even water couldnât pass through it. The huge amount of players that gathered here to register came on like an endless stream.
I extended my hand out and held on to Wan Erâs little hands. I pulled her, and brought Dong Cheng, Qing Qian, and Darling Duck, these few beautiful ladies along with me. We forced our way into the crowd, and could finally speak to the NPC. We chose to register for the preliminary rounds of the Heroâs Wings tournament. Our levels fulfilled the requirements for registering. Every person gave a fixed amount of gold coins, and there was immediately a System Notification: Congratulations, your team has successfully registered! Please immediately enter your team name!
Dong Cheng laughed: âWhat name should we call our team?â
Wan Er: âSimple, letâs just call it Team Xiao Yao Zi Zai. Anyway, Pig is the team leader. Weâre following him.â
Qing Qian nodded her head and laughed: âGood idea! Brother Xiao Yao is the soul of our team!â
And so, I entered the four words Xiao Yao Zi Zai. The system immediately confirmed my team name. OK, everything is ready. Letâs just wait for the preliminaries to officially start 3 days later.
