nSeeing Ye Xuan looking at him, the youngster wearing silver stud earrings glimpsed back with a provoking smile.

nFor him and his companions, it was exactly their goal of this trip to provoke the freshmen of Jiangzhou University.

n

n

nAt the same time, Li Yanting and some other people also stopped to look at the youngster wearing silver stud earrings.

nThey were looking at him with great anger.

n“What’s up?”

nIn the distance, Qi Liangcai and the other two walked over as soon as they saw Ye Xuan and others stop before those from Wanshan University.

n

n

n“Tut. Tut. How great Jiangzhou University is! What? Are you going to start a gang fight?”

nSeeing that, the young man wearing silver stud earrings smiled, raising his eyebrow.

n“Gang fight?”

nQi Liangcai gave the youngster wearing silver stud earrings a stare. “I already found you guys annoying earlier. Did you come here to provoke us? Don’t worry. I will make sure your wish is satisfied!”

n

n

nAfter glimpsing at the fight in the amphitheater, he added, “I will go down there shortly and get onto the Rising Star List.”

n“You go down there to fight against me as soon as I get onto the list. It doesn’t matter at all if you don’t want to do that. In that case, you need to shout ‘I’m trash’ three times right here and then go back to your campus. What do you think? I dare you.”

nThe youngster wearing silver stud earrings was arrogant indeed.

nHowever, Qi Liangcai was even more arrogant. Everyone could get that special vibe from him as soon as he approached.

nAnd he was loud. His voice could carry far as if he were a loudspeaker. People’s attention was instantly drawn to him.

nThe young man wearing silver stud earrings turned slightly pale. He gave Qi Liangcai a serious look.

n

n

n“What? Are you frightened?”

nSeeing the young man’s face, Qi Liangcai sneered. “Don’t be such a sissy. Only cowards would bully women!”

n“You go down there and fight against me. As long as you can win, I will run three laps around this amphitheater naked! You have my word today.”

n“If you want to fight, I will fight against you!”

nAt this moment, a handsome young man next to the youngster wearing silver stud earrings suddenly said in a profound voice, looking at Qi Liangcai.

n“You?”

nNot until then did Qi Liangcai give him a look. “Who are you? But if you insist on fighting against me, I don’t mind giving you an opportunity.”

nThen he looked at the young man wearing silver stud earrings again. “Tell that stuck-up jerk to go down. It will be your turn after my fight against him!”

n

n

n“Okay!”

nThe young man wearing silver stud earrings was driven into a corner by Qi Liangcai.

nFeeling everyone’s gazes, he slightly flushed. “I will wait until you get onto the Rising Star List and then have this fight against you. Just show me what you’ve got!”

n“Tut. Deal!”

nQi Liangcai raised his eyebrow immediately.

nIn some farther place, the bald teacher who led Wanshan University’s team turned slightly pale after seeing that quarrel.

nThen he asked a teacher from Jiangzhou University next to him, “Mr. Zhao, who is that student? How come he is so arrogant?”

n“Arrogant?”

nMr. Zhao shook his head. He said with a smile, “I don’t think he is arrogant. We entertain our guests with wine, and we take our shotguns out when there are jackals and wolves. This is just the tradition of Jiangzhou University.”

nThe bald teacher instantly pulled a long face.

nWho are you ridiculing?

nLet’s see how embarrassed you will be when that student of yours loses later and runs three laps around the amphitheater naked.

n“Sophs, have you seen it? These guys are freshmen at Wanshan University. What are they doing here? They are here provoking us!”

n

n

nQi Liangcai shouted as soon as the young man wearing silver stud earrings agreed.

n“And they are shameless. They were ogling at a classmate of mine. What do you say? Should I put up with them or not?”

n“No!”

n“But today is a special occasion. Only students on the Rising Star List or students who challenge those on the Rising Star List can go down there to fight.”

n“So, I hope you can do me a little favor; let me jump the queue later.”

n“And one more thing. If any of you is ranked in the bottom thirty of the Rising Star List, would you do me this favor?”

nDamn it!

nEveryone swore to themselves as Qi Liangcai shouted.

nWhen they heard Qi Liangcai challenging the youngster wearing silver stud earrings from Wanshan University, they thought he had already arranged a fight against someone on the Rising Star List, and it would be his turn soon.

nHowever, this turned out not to be the case.

nInstead, he intended to take advantage of the occasion to jump the queue.

nAnd he was even coercing others.

nCoercing those on the Rising Star List into accepting his challenge.

nAfter all, students on the Rising Star List would not accept anyone’s challenge.

nNo time would be left for them to cultivate otherwise.

nEvery student on the Rising Star List only needed to accept three challenges every month. As to the other challenges, they could ignore them.

nTherefore, most of them were not very willing to accept challenges.

nAfter all, if you accepted one and lost, you would lose your place on the Rising Star List. Wasn’t that asking for trouble?

nAlso, the sophomores and Li Yanting pulled a long face upon hearing what Qi Liangcai was saying.

nYou could have found any excuse you wanted, but why did you have to drag me into this?

nWe are not even friends.

nYe Xuan was rendered speechless, too.

nQi Liangcai is so cheap.

nHe will always surprise you.

nHowever, Ye Xuan had guessed Qi Liangcai should have been here for a while.

nHe did this because no one had challenged him.

n“Sophs, please do me this favor. Don’t let me keep standing here idly. These graceless jerks from Wanshan University are watching. Have a heart, please. Do me this favor!”

nSeeing no one respond to him, Qi Liangcai cupped his hands at the crowds around.

nDamn it!

nSeeing this, Ye Xuan felt if he stayed here with Qi Liangcai any longer, he would be embarrassed to death by others’ looks.

nAt that thought, he walked away immediately.

nHe walked to the step where Qi Liangcai and the other two had been standing on.

nWei Shan and Lv Jing, who had known Qi Liangcai’s tricks well, reacted even faster.

nBefore Ye Xuan started to walk, they had walked away from Qi Liangcai one after the other.

n“That dude.”

nWang Yu, Li Yanting, and Yang Yuxin also caught up to Ye Xuan at a fast pace, distancing themselves from Qi Liangcai, who was begging the whole world.

n“What the heck. That jerk!”

nSimultaneously, a sophomore who looked older for his age saw many people gazing at him as Qi Liangcai shouted. He was instantly embarrassed.

nHe was exactly a student of Jiangzhou University ranked on the Rising Star List.

nAnd he was ranked at the bottom.

nHe was only ranked 94th.

nAnd he only barely got this rank when the previous sophomore had become a junior.

n“Fine!”

nSeeing those looks focused on him, he struggled and struggled. In the end, he said to Qi Liangcai from far away, “I will go down there with you when those two have finished.”

n“Okay. Thanks, soph. Bear in mind my name, please. I am Qi Liangcai. Thank you for your great kindness. I will reincarnate as a woman to be your concubine in the next life to pay you back.”

nQi Liangcai’s eyes instantly lit up.

n“Darn it. Fuck off!”

nThat sophomore was even more embarrassed.

nThat guy was really cheap.

n“Hey-hey.”

nQi Liangcai grinned after getting what he wanted. He walked up to Ye Xuan. In a proud voice, he said, “Have you seen that? I’ve really got my way.”

n“Ain’t you afraid some stranger on the street will beat you up?”

nYe Xuan threw him a look.

n“Not at all. I am a man. Even if I die, I will point my dick at heaven. Now that I am alive, I must live my life.”

nQi Liangcai said, not thinking it a big deal.

nYe Xuan was amused.

nStaying with this guy, he would never be short of fun.

n“By the way.”

nAt this moment, something seemed to occur to Qi Liangcai. Approaching Ye Xuan, he whispered into the latter’s ear in a nasty tone, “Tell me. What did you do to make friends with Li Yanting and Yang Yuxin?”

n“You are such a thick-eyebrowed and big-eyed jerk! I was wondering why you didn’t want to have breakfast with me. It turns out you went to hit on those hot girls.”

nAlthough Qi Liangcai was whispering, Li Yanting and Yang Yuxin still heard him.

nInstantly, they all turned to look at Qi Liangcai. Their looks were all icy.

n“Cut it out!”

nYe Xuan seemed a little pissed off. “I happened to run into them on my way to the Nova Hall, so we came here together.”

n“Nova Hall?”

nQi Liangcai was struck dumb. “What were you doing in the Nova Hall?”

nHe gazed at Ye Xuan as he spoke. All of a sudden, he knitted his brows together. “Gee, something is wrong here. What happened to your state? Why can’t I detect it?”

n“Nothing. I got a breakthrough. That’s all.”

nYe Xuan said plainly.

nA breakthrough?

nQi Liangcai could hardly believe it. “You were on the intermediate Dark Iron level. Even though you had a breakthrough, shouldn’t you be on the high level of Dark Iron?”

n“But if you had only achieved the high level of Dark Iron, I should have been able to detect it.”

nHe scratched his hair as he spoke.

nBut before the scratching, something flashed through his mind.

nHe suddenly recalled Ye Xuan had once said he was going to challenge the Nova Hall as well.

nHe instantly showed a bizarre face. “Ye Xuan, you just told me that you had gone to the Nova Hall. Did you go there to challenge the Nova Hall?”

n“Yes, of course!”

nYe Xuan looked at Qi Liangcai. “If I hadn’t gone there to challenge the Nova Hall, why would I have gone there alone at all?”

n“But you have to achieve the Bronze level to do that. Have you already achieved the Bronze level?”

nQi Liangcai opened his eyes widely.

nNot until then did he realize what had been so weird about Ye Xuan.

nHe could not detect Ye Xuan’s cultivation level. That meant Ye Xuan must have achieved the Bronze level.

nHowever…

nWasn’t Ye Xuan still on the intermediate Dark Iron level only yesterday?

nHe was completely baffled.

nWhat was going on?

nDid you run into an older man who enlightened you?

nAt the same time, Li Yanting, Yang Yuxin, and Wang Yu also heard Qi Liangcai. Exchanging a look, they were also astonished.

nWhat was that supposed to mean?

nWas Ye Xuan really just an intermediate-level Dark Iron Beast Tamer yesterday?

nIt did not take him days to achieve the Bronze level from the intermediate Dark Iron level.

nInstead, he achieved the breakthrough in only one day?

n“Ye Xuan.”

nAt this moment, Qi Liangcai looked as if something had occurred to him. He suddenly asked, “Don’t tell me you already succeeded in the challenge!”

n
