“Keep a low profile? Live a plain, ordinary life. As long as you look ordinary and your abilities are ordinary, no one will go out of their way to cause you trouble. You should all be clear about the conversation between me and Lengxue!” Huang Quan said with a frown.
Shengnan spread both hands, looking utterly helpless: “At the time, I couldn’t understand a single word of the conversation between you and Lengxue.”
“Whatever. Later, you’ll use about eighty percent of your strength—no… eighty-eight percent of your strength. If this written exam really is aimed at me, then the difficulty will definitely be increased. As long as you fail, they’ll have every reason to make a move against me.” Huang Quan voiced his concerns.
Shengnan paused for a moment, then said: “Earlier, that person from the Sky Blue Guild wanted to invite you to join their assault team. As long as you join the guild, even if you fail the exam, the expulsion matter would just blow over, wouldn’t it?”
“Join my ass. Once you join a guild and get the corresponding rights, you have to enter the Abyss Rifts and fight those abyss monsters. It’s dangerous everywhere in there—who knows what kind of accident might happen. Besides, if I join a guild but I’m not a combat member, I won’t have any real authority, and I’ll have people ordering me around left and right. Why would I join?” Huang Quan said irritably.
Anyway, the two of them already knew each other inside and out, so there was nothing to hide.
But Shengnan wore an expression of disbelief: “Every year, who knows how many people would break their necks trying to squeeze into a guild. How is it that when it comes to you, you’re turning your nose up at it?”
She knew very well that behind the scenes, some female students using seduction just to get into a guild was already the norm.
“Anyway, during the written exam later, you can perform normally, but don’t overdo it.”
After giving his instructions, Huang Quan pulled open the rooftop’s iron door, only to find a crowd of men and women packed outside. He immediately put on a cold face and said: “Do you need something?”
Seeing that the great school beauty Lei’s anger hadn’t subsided, no one dared make a sound. They consciously parted to make a path for her!
As Huang Quan walked off, the others hadn’t heard anything earlier, but they could clearly sense that the relationship between Lei Aoxue and Huang Quan was unusual.
If they had still harbored doubts about whether the man who suddenly kissed Lei Aoxue yesterday was Huang Quan, now they were almost certain.
If the person yesterday wasn’t Huang Quan, why would the great school beauty Lei’s attitude toward him change so dramatically?
Among them, quite a few people had long since found Huang Quan irritating: “Huang Quan, you must be feeling pretty smug right now!”
Shengnan: “…” He wasn’t feeling smug at all.
“You are…?” Shengnan didn’t show much courtesy to the man in front of him, and couldn’t even remember his name.
Hearing this, the other party’s mouth nearly twisted with anger: “Huang Quan, are you tired of living? You don’t even recognize me anymore?!”
Shengnan was slightly taken aback. Was this someone Huang Quan knew?
But she didn’t recognize him.
“Huang Quan, you probably haven’t woken up properly today. Open your damn eyes and look carefully—this is your Brother Long, Zeng Long.”
“Kid, you even dare to mess with the great school beauty Lei. I think you’re taking a flashlight into the outhouse—courting death!”
Zeng Long waved his hand and said: “Grab him. Lock the door for me. I want this piece of trash to learn some rules.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, two people immediately locked the rooftop door.
After locking the rooftop door, Zeng Long said bluntly: “Kid, do you know that Xue Aoxue is Young Master Ming’s woman? And you actually dared to touch her?”
Shengnan looked and immediately understood: “You’re Ming Xuanyuan’s lackey. I… uh… since when was Lei Aoxue his woman?”
Lengxue: He’s been spreading it everywhere. He pursues me like this at school too, and his lackeys, in order to please him, naturally say the same thing.
Shengnan: Should I let Kuangtian out?
Lengxue: Let’s see how things play out first.
Hearing this powerless, worthless trash actually call him a lackey, Zeng Long’s face nearly twisted with rage: “Huang Quan, you motherfucking asked for it!”
“This is a school. Are you sure you want to start something here?” Shengnan asked.
But Zeng Long didn’t care in the slightest: “A piece of trash like you—would anyone stand up for you?
Besides, we have Young Master Ming backing us. Today, I’ll beat you up whenever I feel like it!”
Then Zeng Long let out a roar, and his whole body shot out like a cannonball.
As an Awakened who had awakened a companion artifact, his physical functions would also receive explosive enhancements. Taking down an ordinary person was as easy as pie.
…
Meanwhile, as Huang Quan walked into the hallway, he suddenly thought of something. He looked up and realized Lei Aoxue hadn’t followed. A bad feeling immediately rose in his gut.
When he reached the rooftop, he could still hear some classmates whispering among themselves.
“So brutal, huh? That sound—even I feel uneasy hearing it.”
“This Huang Quan really is something. He actually dared to lay hands on Lei Aoxue. Is she a woman he can touch?”
“He hasn’t even awakened a companion artifact. How dare he be so reckless at school? These days, as long as no one dies, the school won’t intervene!”
“If he were some kind of genius, that would be one thing. But he’s about to graduate and still hasn’t awakened a companion artifact. What kind of genius could he be? I think the school has long wanted to get rid of him!”
…
Huang Quan just listened quietly, gazing toward the rooftop. Then he heard a loud bang.
The rooftop’s iron door was directly smashed inward, dented.
Then the door opened, and a man with a somewhat wild expression walked into view. Everyone was dumbfounded at the sight.
Huang Quan!?
How was he completely unharmed?
When everyone saw that Zeng Long—who bullied the weak and feared the strong at school—was actually beaten into the ground, they all wore expressions of disbelief.
Huang Quan hadn’t even awakened a companion artifact. How had he beaten Zeng Long down!
Could he have suddenly awakened at that critical moment?
But Zeng Long had already been a Level 2 Awakened for some time. The gap between them in both speed and strength was not even close. Not to mention Zeng Long’s lackeys were also Awakened.
How on earth had he won?
And Huang Quan, looking at the woman radiating dominance through his own body, understood in his heart—this was Kuangtian?
There was an aura of absolute supremacy in those eyes.
“Let’s go!” After Huang Quan called out, he turned around directly. Helplessness welled up in his heart—it seemed he would need to make more preparations.
Behind him, “Huang Quan” suddenly retracted her aura, replaced by a wicked, charming smile on her face. She even threw flirtatious glances at some of the girls.
If not for Huang Quan’s murderous glare, she probably wouldn’t have held back at all.
However, the two of them walking together like that left the entire school dumbfounded.
“Whoa, isn’t that Goddess Lei? Who’s that man next to her? He’s pretty handsome!”
“That handsome guy actually threw me a flirtatious look just now?”
“Goddess Lei actually glared at someone? What’s this guy’s background?”
Huang Quan was now somewhat regretting his earlier decision. This would only push him into the spotlight, and because of the body swap, he always couldn’t react in time.
Just as he was about to separate from her, he felt a sudden burst of floral fragrance ahead, and a group of people abruptly blocked his path.
