Chapter 671: A Little Salty
Hearing the other party’s voice, Su Jiu was slightly stunned, but quickly understood what they meant. Even her face, as thick as a city wall, couldn’t help but blush. Her mouth twitched slightly, and she waved her hand to explain, “No, it’s not what you think.”
If she were misunderstood now, her wise and mighty image would be ruined.
As she was explaining, a cool breeze suddenly came from her thigh. Lin flew up quickly, and in the center of their vision, they looked at each other left and right. Finally, she frowned and looked at Lin Chujiu, saying faintly:
“What do you mean continue? Kissing there (on the back of the hand) isn’t enough, do you want to bite it too?”
She also wanted to bite this con artist to death, but she couldn’t beat him now…
“You kissed there? And you want to bite?”
Hearing this, Lin Chujiu’s eyes widened. Her originally a bit lazy little face suddenly froze. A blush visibly spread across her cheeks. She looked at Su Jiu a little fearfully and took half a step back.
Are all lesbians this rampant now?
I guess I’m still considered decent-looking, so it’s better to stay away from her.
Swallowing her saliva, she stammered, “Su… classmate Su, your… your girlfriend is a bit fierce.”
Sensing Lin Chujiu’s fearful gaze, Su Jiu immediately understood what Lin intended to say. She looked at Lin, who was speaking in fragments, instantly her face darkened. She tugged at Lin’s sleeve, signaling her to stop talking.
Look at these words of lust and ferocity you’re saying!
What do you mean “there”? It’s the back of the hand, the back of the hand, don’t talk nonsense!
“Tch…”
Seeing Su Jiu pulling at her, Lin pouted. She didn’t argue further. These humans are so strange, kissing the back of a hand is like doing something bad.
“Cough cough…”
After a dry cough, as if to dispel the awkwardness, Su Jiu stood up, blocking Lin behind her, and smiled at Lin Chujiu, asking softly, “Teacher Chujiu, is there something?”
“It’s our turn to compete soon. We want you to appear as our final trump card. This will also help uphold the honor of our country.”
Lin Chujiu smiled politely and handed over the Intermediate Magic Crystal she had received earlier. Of course, her gaze was on Su Jiu’s hand, and she was cautious enough to handle it with a handkerchief.
Her grandfather was a rather old-fashioned scholar, and she was naturally a bit old-fashioned herself. She also hoped her country would achieve greater honor.
“No problem, I’ll definitely participate. It’s just about the reward…”
Looking at her cautious actions, Su Jiu took the Magic Crystal and felt an inexplicable flush on her face, wishing she could dig a hole and crawl into it.
That little foolbird made people misunderstand that she was like a public display of affection-type womanizer. She was a good girl, innocent and romantic, did she still have any shame?
Afterward, she must thoroughly bully and teach her a lesson!
“Three high-grade water-attribute magic crystals. If classmate Su plays a key role, you’ll get two. If you don’t take action, you’ll still get one. How about it?” Lin Chujiu didn’t know what Su Jiu was thinking and continued.
“Okay, but before that…”
After receiving this reply, Su Jiu agreed without thinking. But then, she smiled and said, “After their match is over, I want to show the students something extra.”
With that, her gaze fell upon the stage, watching the one-sided match between a Half-King and a High-ranking War General. After the High-ranking War General student from South Asia was forced into a corner.
He wiped his mouth, put on an alchemical gauntlet at an extremely fast speed, then clenched his long saber and charged out rapidly, faster than before. The immense momentum of the saber even produced some sonic booms.
“Show something extra? Wait… that alchemical gauntlet enhanced his speed and strength?”
Lin Chujiu followed her gaze and was surprised to find that the South Asian High-ranking War General seemed to have a burst of power, as if transforming into a Peerless Battle General and charging forward.
On the other side, the Seoul University student was a Half-King. He didn’t take this match seriously at first and only attacked a few times casually, just to relax. Suddenly, he noticed afterimages appearing before his eyes.
“Bang!”
Two figures collided, and a loud noise suddenly erupted. The saber and the sword in the Half-King’s hand clashed, and brilliant sparks instantly burst forth.
“Why is your strength so great?!”
Under the gaze of everyone on the stage, the Seoul University student retreated two steps, his face filled with shock. Although it was partly due to his own carelessness, the opponent wasn’t a genius with the strength of a bloodline or a Peerless Battle General. How could he suppress a Half-King who had unleashed his domain with sheer strength?
However, all he received was one strike after another, sparks continuously erupting. The Seoul University student was repeatedly pushed back, his shoes leaving layers of marks on the stage.
Taking advantage of the Seoul University Half-King’s panic to resist, the South Asian student’s eyes narrowed. He clenched his fist and slammed it fiercely, sending the opponent staggering back more than ten steps. He spurted out a mouthful of blood, arching his back like a shrimp at the edge of the stage.
“What level of alchemical item is that gauntlet? Why does it provide such an enhancement?”
“The speed and power of his saber strikes have increased to a certain extent. Based on my observation, this gauntlet might be a high-ranking war general level combat item.”
“This item should have a usage limit. The fact that the South Asian student can produce it might be a gift from their country!”
Seeing this scene, the crowd below erupted in gasps of astonishment. Almost no one expected the outcome of a confrontation between a High-ranking War General and a Half-King to be like this.
Even if the Half-King underestimated the opponent, he was still a Half-King!
Ran Hua City, seated in the Seoul University section, had a face as purple as a pig’s liver. His legs, crossed in a ‘good’ shape, were unstable. He tightly gripped his phone, as if he were about to crush the inner screen.
He felt utterly disgraced. Their own people were being defeated by someone of a lower rank, and not just once, but twice!
Thinking of the two times, he suddenly felt a chill. What if there was a third time?
If that happened, he would probably have to swim back home. Great Korea valued face the most. With a live broadcast and interviews, they couldn’t even defeat someone from South Asia. Upon returning home, they would be flamed to death…
On the stage, the Young Man from South Asia tightened his grip on the gauntlet, his voice trembling slightly, “Mr. Referee, please announce the result!”
The referee on the stage also looked astonished at the scene. His gaze fell on the gauntlet in the South Asian youth’s hand, then he turned to look at the Mayor of Tokyo. After receiving approval, he announced:
“South Asian University wins, with one point added!”
Seeing the almost instantaneous reversal in the audience, Lin Chujiu’s expression changed like a hunting dog that had smelled prey. She abruptly turned to Su Jiu and whispered, “Classmate Su, that gauntlet… is it yours?”
Shaking her head slightly, Su Jiu suddenly smiled, revealing a friendly expression:
“Darling, you should call me Boss Su.”
