As the snowflakes fell, they didn't melt into water on the ground as usual. Instead, they gathered around Chu Chuyan, gradually forming a lotus flower like an ice sculpture that enveloped her entire delicate body.
Sang Hong, who was sitting in the center of the stage, nodded slightly: "I have long heard of Miss Chu's reputation as a genius. Seeing her today, I can see that she is indeed extraordinary. At such a young age, her ability to use Yuan Power is truly remarkable."
Sang Qian, standing behind him, had a fervent look in his eyes. He thought that although Zheng Dan was beautiful, she was still three points inferior to Chu Chuyan. If he could have this woman, he would probably be laughing in his dreams.
He wouldn't have dared to dream of this before, but when he learned that Chu Chuyan had chosen Zu An, who was inferior to him in every way, as her husband, he suddenly felt that the fairy in the sky was no longer so unattainable.
Especially after learning about some of her father's plans, she thought that when the Chu family fell into ruin and she was no longer the high and mighty daughter of a duke, she might actually have a chance to get close to him.
The only problem is that Shi Kun seems to be interested in her too...
At this moment, Sang Hong was unaware of his son's inner thoughts. Instead, he turned his head and talked to Jiang Luofu beside him: "Miss Chu's achievements today must be inseparable from Principal Jiang's guidance."
Despite trying to remind himself, he couldn't help but glance at her legs out of the corner of his eye. They were long, straight, and shapely, truly a masterpiece of nature, especially the way they were encased in stockings. This woman was a real enchantress!
Jiang Luofu smiled slightly: "Chu Chuyan's achievements are mainly due to her own extraordinary talent and high comprehension. The school only provides a little guidance."
"Principal Jiang is too modest." Sang Hong is not actually fond of women, but the woman next to him has such beautiful legs that even he, with his self-control, couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
At this moment, Wu Di's momentum on the arena had reached its peak. His flaming longsword, which was more than ten meters long, slashed down with terrifying force, heavily striking the ice lotus.
Ice and fire are incompatible. The moment they came into contact, the outer petals of the ice lotus were melted by the flaming longsword, which then slashed straight at Chu Chuyan in the center of the ice lotus.
"Miss Chu, be careful!"
"Be careful, Fairy Chu!"
...
Chu Chuyan was so beautiful that even though they knew it had nothing to do with them, the men watching in the training ground couldn't help but speak up to warn her when they saw her in danger.
Zuan immediately objected, "I, the main target, am not in a hurry, so why are you all in such a rush?"
He was very unhappy that his wife was being coveted by another man. In his unhappiness, he decided to make more people unhappy, so he stood up and shouted loudly, "Go, wife! Go, wife! Go, wife!"
He spoke so loudly, as if he wanted everyone to know that the woman on stage was his wife.
Sure enough, as soon as he started shouting, countless murderous gazes were fixed on him.
"This guy is Miss Chu's husband? He looks quite ordinary to me."
"He's not just ordinary, he's a notorious good-for-nothing in the city."
"How could someone like that marry my goddess? Heaven is so unfair!"
"damn it!"
...
On the main stage, Shi Kun instantly crushed the armrest of his chair. Chu Chuyan had long been his possession, but now he had to watch another man call him wife. The feeling was indescribable, making him feel as if he were being cuckolded.
"Shameless, utterly shameless! No wonder he could write such a shameless novel." Ji Dengtu, who was squeezing through the crowd to take advantage of others, couldn't help but shake his head. "I definitely have to find a chance to ask him about the later plot. Did that protagonist surnamed Wang change later on? Hmm, why am I concerned about the one surnamed Wang? Did I accidentally switch perspectives to his? Ugh, ugh, ugh!"
...
As Zuan watched the massive influx of anger points into his account, he thought to himself, "Is having a beautiful wife really that happy? You guys can't even imagine the happiness it brings, hahaha!"
Chu Chuyan, who had fought Wu Di for so long on the arena without being able to elicit any change in her expression from his words, heard Zu An's shouts and commotion. A fleeting blush crossed her beautiful face. This guy really is...
Her shy reaction infuriated Wu Di. "I just said so much and you didn't react at all, but now you're blushing? You dared to be distracted while fighting me?"
Sensing his anger, the enormous flaming blade instantly swelled, pressing down several feet beneath the ice lotus, as if to cleave it completely in two.
Those around gasped in surprise at the sight, but Wu Di frowned, for he sensed something was amiss; the blade was descending at an increasingly slower pace.
Chu Chuyan stood quietly in the middle of the ice lotus, staring at the flaming blade above her head without any expression. The fine snow continued to fall around her, and the two sides seemed to be locked in a stalemate.
"Look!" Suddenly someone noticed something was wrong.
Everyone looked intently in the direction he was pointing, and saw that the flames on the knife had stopped flickering at some point, and a layer of white steam had appeared on the blade.
The entire flaming blade froze rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually freezing even Wu Di, who was in the air, into a lump of ice sculpture.
Zuan swallowed hard, thinking, "My cheap wife is so powerful, what if she abuses me in the future? No, I must improve my strength as soon as possible, otherwise who will I cry to if my little brother gets frozen into an ice sculpture?"
"Even vital energy can be frozen?" The disciples of the small and medium-sized families in the arena were all stunned, and even those in the main seats on the stage were moved.
"As expected of the woman I chose!" Shi Kun smiled smugly, as if she had brought him honor.
