Among a group of short people, only one general was chosen.

This is a true reflection of Li Fu.

Lin Qingshan was so fast that Li Fu had barely taken out his hammer and didn't even have a chance to swing it in front of everyone before it was knocked to the ground.

"I...I give up!"

The martial arts tournament emphasizes stopping when the point is reached.

However, in the past martial arts tournaments, there have been many cases where tempers flared and injuries or deaths occurred. Li Fu was just there to make up the numbers, not to seek death.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingshan turned around and flew off the stage.

This was the first relatively high-quality match of the day. The reason I say "relatively high" is because Lin Qingshan was exceptional, while Li Fu was just average.

What followed was another long period of incompetent players pecking at each other.

Feeling bored, Jing Zhe thought for a moment and then said to Su Moyan beside him, "Your Highness, I'm going out to do some interviews!"

After saying that, he ran out.

They arrived in front of Qingyun Sect first. A group of male disciples of Qingyun Sect, led by Yu Bo, immediately tensed up and stared at Jing Zhe with predatory eyes, but Jing Zhe remained unmoved.

Each of the four major sects had a table and two benches, which were basically prepared for the sect leaders and those participating in the competition. So, Master Mingji and Qingqiu each sat on one table.

"Master Mingji, I've come to bother you!"

Jing Zhe said with a smile.

Master Mingji nodded kindly. Without saying a word, Jing Zhe sat down next to Qingqiu, his bottom already touching Qingqiu's thigh.

Seeing this, Yu Bo and the others wanted nothing more than to jump up and beat Jing Zhe, but Qing Qiu didn't find it inappropriate at all. She even helped him straighten the hem of his robe before she was satisfied.

The disciples of Qingyun Sect were immediately dumbfounded...

"Sect Master Mingji, thank you for your support earlier!"

Master Mingji smiled and said, "I'm not trying to flatter you. I've seen you compose poems on the spot before, and they're of excellent quality. But those were all written for women. I thought all the skills you learned were for teasing girls. I didn't expect your poem today to be so fitting."

As she spoke, she recited: "Suddenly, like a spring breeze overnight, thousands of pear trees burst into bloom... These lines of poetry are truly beautiful!"

"..."

Well, it's a shame that Master Mingji thinks he can only write lewd poems to please women. That's too stereotypical. She'll soon find out that he's actually an all-around little prince!

"If you want to talk about the interview, just discuss it with Qingqiu. I don't know much about this either, so you two should communicate more."

After speaking, Abbess Mingji seemed to have lost interest and turned her head towards the dueling platform, where the pointless, half-hearted fighting seemed to be extremely attractive to her.

Since Jing Zhe arrived, every word he spoke had the surrounding male disciples listening intently. When they heard that Abbess Mingji had asked him to inquire about Qingqiu's interview, the group tensed up again.

"Um... President Jing!"

At the urging of the crowd, Yu Bo stepped forward: "Our senior sister will be participating in the martial arts tournament this time, so she probably won't have the time or inclination to give you an interview..."

"I have."

Qingqiu said softly.

"Did you hear that? Yes!"

Jing Zhe couldn't stand this guy named Yu Bo, who was also secretly colluding with Lin Qingshan. When he found an opportunity, he naturally confronted him immediately.

Yu Bo paused for a moment, then continued, "President Jing, that's just my senior sister's personality. Sometimes, she doesn't know how to refuse. As long as it's something Master arranges, she'll do it whether she wants to or not! However, President Jing also knows that my senior sister will be busy with the martial arts tournament, so please don't bother her anymore! If you really want to interview her, then interview us!"

"Yes, yes, yes, interview us!"

The male disciples behind him immediately echoed his sentiments.

Just as Qingqiu was about to speak, Jingzhe immediately stopped her. How could a master of showing off miss such a good opportunity?

So he laughed and said, "No, you're wrong. You don't know your senior sister, but I do. She just loves giving interviews."

"..."

You're some guy who just popped up out of nowhere and you say you know my senior sister?

Yu Bo sneered, and before he could speak, Jing Zhe answered himself as if asking a question, "Well, you wouldn't believe me even if I told you, because you don't understand your senior sister at all."

How did you know?

"because…"

Jing Zhe smiled: "In this world, there is only one man who understands her best."

As he spoke, Jing Zhe put his hand on Qingqiu's shoulder, glanced at the group of male disciples behind him, and said in a cheeky manner, "That's me!"

"..."

When Jing Zhe placed his hand on her shoulder, Qing Qiu stiffened slightly, but she never once considered knocking his hand away.

He shook his head and gave a bitter smile: Oh well, let him be. After all, he's my most beloved younger brother.

Seeing the disciples suffering as if they had swallowed a fly and couldn't spit it out, Jing Zhe felt extremely satisfied.

The entire team was wiped out!

That's it? You think you can mess with me?

You're overthinking it!

But he wasn't satisfied with just that little bit of pleasure. As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot. The next moment, Jing Zhe tightened his grip slightly, and Qing Qiu's body leaned towards him, as if he were holding her on his shoulder, in a very intimate manner.

"Master!"

Yu Bo was so angry that she couldn't speak, and called out to Master Mingji.

Master Mingji turned around upon hearing the sound and saw Jing Zhe and Qing Qiu's intimate appearance. She didn't say much, but just smiled and shook her head: "Young people these days are really something!"

"..."

The aftershocks seemed to have dealt the disciples a second blow; they stood there, utterly devastated, their hearts broken.

...

"Third sister, don't move!"

"You're just putting on an act for me!"

"Just trying to annoy them!"

This was the first time Jing Zhe had so openly and legitimately pulled Qing Qiu into his arms. There was only one word to describe his feelings at that moment: awesome!

However, when Qingqiu's hand unconsciously went to her waist, Jing Zhe panicked a little and quickly explained in a low voice.

Qingqiu replied calmly, "Yes, I know. Otherwise, why would I let you put your hand on my shoulder like this?"

She glanced at him and said indifferently, as if she were making an excuse for letting Jing Zhe hug her.

"Since that's the case, then what about your hand..."

With the "Azure Sky Sword" at her waist, the only thing Jing Zhe could think of Qing Qiu doing was drawing her sword!

"You thought I was going to draw my sword?"

Jing Zhe nodded quickly.

"I think you've done too many bad things, and you're feeling guilty! I just felt... my waist was a little itchy, so I wanted to scratch it."

Qingqiu remained calm, and from the outside, she was no different from the aloof fairy she had been before. But in her heart, she was still a little smug: Finally, you got what you deserved!

Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe chuckled and said, "So, Third Sister's back is itchy? I may not have any other skills, but scratching backs is a piece of cake for me. Third Sister, let me scratch it for you!"

As he spoke, Jing Zhe's hand reached up...
