Heartbroken?
"Tsk tsk, I never would have guessed. Old Xiao is usually such a cold and aloof person, but he has such a sad past..."
Listening to everyone gossiping one after another, Shen Qian was taken aback.
"You all knew?"
"We're together every day. Although the initial reason was because of you, as time goes by, we'll get to know each other better."
Ouyang Fei laughed and said, "There's nothing strange about that."
Shen Qian thought about it and realized it made sense, but then he realized something else, "So the rock-paper-scissors game just now... you deliberately let him win?"
"Of course! Otherwise, why would we all be using scissors together!"
Yue Dakan chuckled and said, "This round is destined to be Lao Xiao's home turf, so we naturally can't steal his thunder."
Shen Qian then fully understood that there were so many stories hidden in the gaps he was unaware of.
The tacit understanding and friendship that only exist on campus felt like clear spring water at this moment, bringing a touch of inexplicable warmth to Chen Qian, who had been lonely since entering university.
He turned his gaze to the silent figure on the field.
Strictly speaking, Xiao Ye was the first person to provoke him after he entered the school.
He didn't have a deep relationship with this young man who was usually ruthless and taciturn, but one thing was certain.
Xiao Ye is actually very strong.
"idiot."
In response to Tian Shixian's sarcasm, Xiao Ye only uttered two words indifferently.
Perhaps because he was facing his nemesis, the two simple words instantly darkened Tian Shixian's face.
"Since you don't want to reminisce, I'll take you home early!"
Tian Shixian's face turned cold, and with a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
The surging spiritual energy chased after him like a rainbow, and the sudden surge of terrifying power caused a gasp from the audience.
"High warrior!"
"This Tian Shixian is a high-level martial artist, and he definitely didn't just break through!"
"Holy crap, are freshmen these days really this outrageous? I'm already a senior and I haven't even touched the edge of a high-level martial artist..."
The spiritual energy transformed into a sandstorm, which, along with Tian Shixian's approaching figure, materialized into a lifelike, enormous, wolf-like beast that opened its ferocious maw and lunged to devour Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye, however, seemed to be stunned and stood there without reacting.
The two referees from the Mountain and Sea region standing nearby frowned slightly, ready to provide assistance at any moment.
"die!"
Just as Tian Shixian, his face contorted with glee, was less than five meters away from Xiao Ye, and the gaping maw of the ferocious beast was about to touch Xiao Ye's head, Xiao Ye finally moved.
He raised his head indifferently, then stretched out a hand.
The movement was so slow that the audience could see it clearly even without the large screen playing it at double speed.
Only those powerful individuals who have reached a certain level or higher in their cultivation can shrink back to the level of a child.
Because this is not slow at all, but rather a reverse illusion caused by speed reaching a certain extreme.
The next moment...
Pfft!
After a soft popping sound, like a balloon being punctured, the terrifying sandstorm that swept across the arena vanished abruptly, as if it were an illusion.
Tian Shixian, who had been baring his teeth and claws just moments before, was now being held up in mid-air by Xiao Ye's single hand around the neck. He was kicking his legs frantically and struggling, his face turning a bluish-purple.
