Just as Jiang Yuan was getting bored, two familiar figures suddenly approached him.
"It's them?"
The people who came were Sikong Miao and Sikong Long, siblings from the Sikong family.
"Young Master Jiang, you've arrived quite early!" Sikong Miao greeted Jiang Yuan, but her tone wasn't particularly friendly, as if she harbored some resentment.
Jiang Yuan didn't mince words and said frankly, "Miss Sikong isn't late, but she's not as gentle and charming as she was last time we met!"
Sikong Miao didn't give him a friendly look, but instead directly stood up for her best friend, saying, "Why did you stand Tan'er up when we registered three days ago?"
"I was wondering why Miss Sikong was in such a bad mood so early in the morning. Turns out she's here to stand up for her best friend!" Jiang Yuan nodded with a smile.
Sikong Long felt a strange mix of emotions as he watched Jiang Yuan speak so eloquently. Most men wouldn't be able to stand up Mi Tan'er, let alone handle their own older sister, but this guy was so nonchalant and didn't seem to care at all. The difference was too great.
All I can say is that a man should be like this.
"If you don't give a reasonable explanation today, I don't think you'll get away with this," Sikong Miao threatened directly.
After hearing this, Jiang Yuan calmly replied, "Don't worry, we've already reconciled at home."
"at home?"
Both Sikong Miao and Sikong Long were startled when they heard this.
What are you doing?
Before the two could ask, Mi Tan'er came looking for Jiang Yuan.
Seeing that Mi Tan'er seemed perfectly normal, even with a slight smile, Si Kongmiao knew she was probably alright, so she let Jiang Yuan go and turned to Mi Tan'er, asking, "Tan'er, you're not really planning to bring this burden along to the team competition this time, are you?"
"It's alright, participation is what matters!" Mi Tan'er seemed indifferent. In any case, the Central Continent Tournament was hosted by their Fuxi Clan, and the top spots were all taken by their family, so there was no pressure and she was naturally relaxed.
“You can participate, but your results have to be good! How can you get a high score with just the two of you, no, just you alone?” Sikong Miao asked sternly.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan was displeased. He quickly said, "No, Sikong Miao, what do you mean? What do you mean by saying that Tan'er got a high score all by herself? You don't treat me like a human being!"
"You admitted it yourself, I never said you weren't human!" Sikong Miao didn't back down at all. Anyway, this guy wasn't her prey, so she couldn't be bothered to play along with his pretense.
Jiang Yuan took a breath and smiled, "I came to participate in this competition at Tan'er's invitation, so you don't need to worry about whether I can play a role. As for you, with such a sharp tongue, you'll be careful no man will want you."
“You…you’re the one no man wants!” Sikong Miao retorted.
"I never wanted men in the first place. Am I a pervert? Why would I need men?" Jiang Yuan's smile turned lewd.
"Alright, stop arguing. I've already submitted the team roster to the organizers. It's just me and Jiang Yuan." Mi Tan'er needed to assess Jiang Yuan's talent on this trip, so she naturally didn't want to miss such an opportunity.
Upon hearing this, Sikong Miaocai remained silent. As best friends who shared everything, she naturally understood Mi Tan'er's meaning. She could only warn Jiang Yuandao, "Protect my Tan'er well. If you encounter any ferocious beasts, don't hide behind Tan'er. That would be a disgrace to you men!"
"You don't need to remind me," Jiang Yuan replied without changing his expression.
"The team competition is about to begin. Get ready, we're about to enter and be randomly selected." Mi Tan'er had arranged everything and was now ready to enter the competition.
Sikong Miao glanced at Jiang Yuan, still feeling uneasy. She gave Mi Tan'er a small gift and said, "Tan'er, if anything happens on the road, contact us immediately. We have two Xuan Shen Realm experts in our team, so it's easier for us to handle problems."
"good."
Mi Tan'er did not refuse Sikong Miao's kindness and accepted the gifts before leading Jiang Yuan into the main venue.
Upon arriving at the main venue and seeing the long queue, Jiang Yuan wondered as he walked, "What's going on here?"
“You’ll receive a specially made team ring. To prevent cheating, this ring will only automatically collect the user’s loot from this match, which will be used as the basis for scoring,” Mi Tan’er explained.
"Since we're here to collect the team rings, why are we still moving forward?"
Jiang Yuan glanced back at the long queue; the two of them were almost at the front of the line.
Without hesitation, Mi Tan'er replied, "It's to get the ring. How can we get the ring if we don't go up there?"
Jiang Yuan wanted to tease Mi Tan'er, so he said, "Cut in line? There are so many people queuing here, how rude!"
“I…” Mi Tan’er was speechless.
Before she could raise any objections, Jiang Yuan grabbed her hand and led her to the back of the line.
Jiang Yuan had already done some research on how to win Mi Tan'er's heart. Mi Tan'er was spoiled; if you let her have her way, she would think you were ordinary. So you had to take the initiative.
So how do you turn the tables when you have no advantages? The story of a rich girl falling in love with a poor boy is very interesting to study. You have to take her to experience different lives, and you have to give these seemingly simple and poor things a unique meaning.
For example, you might treat her to barbecue in a back alley because you're poor, but can you say you're poor? Of course not. You have to take her to experience the full spectrum of life. In short, you use spiritual enrichment to compensate for material deprivation.
Mi Tan'er, who was being pulled along, pulled her hat brim down to completely cover her face, but even so, she was still recognized by those people.
"Damn, who is that guy? How dare he pull Princess Mi to the back of the group?"
"Never seen him before, could he be a direct descendant of the Fuxi clan?"
"What direct descendant? He's at least twenty years old. Have you ever seen a twenty-year-old direct descendant of the Fuxi clan who is still at the True Spirit Realm?"
"So, could this guy be..."
"Don't gossip, or Princess Mi will rip out your tongue!"
"Yes, yes, let's line up!"
"Holy crap, what are we even waiting in line for?! You dare to stand in front of Princess Mi? You've got a death wish!"
"Brother is wise! Let's retreat!"
Although Jiang Yuan pulled Mi Tan'er to the back of the line, the line in front of them was empty in just a moment.
"How strange! What kind of custom is this in your Fuxi clan? Cutting in line is even automatic!"
