Chapter 36: So Valiant, So Charming


    As ire stepped off the tform, Princess Maurice was already facing her on the tform, and behind her was a group of nobles immediately surrounding ire. Their excitement was buzzing. The Sunrise Institute students didn’t surround ire; they just watched her from afar, feeling conflicted.


    “ire, you’re amazing! When did you learn Dou Qi?!”


    “ire, you were excellent today!”


    “ire, you......”


    While drowning in praises, ire only smiled mildly, not saying a word.


    Bing famous in one fight.


    As ire left, Yixuan Feng stillid there, not moving. Wenmo Shui gulped, and then carefully walked forward.


    “Yixuan?” Wenmo Shui inquired.


    He was responded to with silence.


    “ Yixuan, are you okay? Don’t scare me, if you die, then your T-rex Ma won’t forgive me. She will literally peel ayer off my skin before burying me with you! Even if you want to die, you have to wait for your mom toe here, then die!” Wenmo Shui was tearing up, howling with grief.


    As before, Yixuan Feng didn’t say a word, silentlyying there with an unclear expression.


    “Yixuan, you can’t die. Save your breath, I’ll carry you back. Wait until we arrive home and then you can die.” Wenmo Shui said as he scooped up the unmoving Yixuan Feng, carrying him on his shoulder, shuffling down the tform.


    “I want to vomit... ” Yixuan Feng finally choked out these few words, groaning as quietly as a mosquito. Really, he was shaken so much he was about to vomit.


    “Ah! Yixuan, you’re alright, very good, as long as you’re alright it’s okay.” Wenmo Shui happily set Yixuan Feng down and Yixuan Feng wobbled down. Wenmo Shui immediately supported him and was truly happy. Good, Yixuan Feng, that little rascal, could speak. This meant that he could bear that inhumane person’s humiliation. Good, good, this rascal didn’tpletely copse. Wenmo Shui supported the weak and dizzy Yixuan Feng on his shoulder as they left.


    The Grand Exchange ended like that. A shocking beginning and a shocking ending. The ambassador’s expression became extremely ugly. Naturally the emperor had to say some good words. From the ambassador’s point of view, the ending award ceremony was very simple.


    But the prize was nevertheless extremely controversial. The contestants who attended thepetition didn’t dare say that the prize should have been theirs, and no one even mentioned the prize. Although the dean went to bring the prize back, no one could ept it. Everyone could see what was going on during thepetition. Without ire, they would not only be defeated, but they would also bring shame to Amparnd.


    Following tradition, the court held a banquet, firstly, to celebrate victory, and secondly, to send Lagark’s students off.


    In the afternoon, as ire stole away to rest, sipping tea in the greenhouse, a servant came to report. The Sunrise Institute’s principal had sent people to send over the rewards. Because he said he was busy, he couldn’t personallye, so he sent an instructor to send the three rewards.


    ire looked at the three extraordinary items on the tray the servant was holding, quietly sipped her tea, and slowly stood up, walking to the tray that the magic sword was ced on. With one swipe, she threw the sword to Jean, who was behind her, and then mildly said, “Send the other people back. I’ll only take what I deserve.”


    The servant became slightly frozen, looking at ire’s ice-cold expression, quickly lowering his head as he brought the silver tray out.


    Jean epted the sword and as he pulled it out a little, cold rays shot out. A good sword! Jean’s face revealed a slight smile. He liked this present very much.


    “Pack this up. From now on, you are going to use this sword to protect me.” ire sat back into the seat and remembered the awkward moment that happened that day. Her foot was stepping on the abnormal young man’s back. Once she thought of the young magician who was proficient in the art of assassination being humiliated by her in public, ire began to feel headache. That was not her intention. Now, she can only think of ns tobat theing storm.


    “Mistress, are you worrying about that young man you hadpeted against today?” Jean putting back the sword to ask.


    “If you were to lose to a woman who is much weaker than you because of her deceit and were stepped under her foot in front of everyone, would you feel good?” ire asked irritably.


    Jean was speechless. Yes, not only would a man that had been stepped on the back by a woman in public be out of control, anyone would be furious.


    “Be careful during this time. That person is very proficient in the art of assassination.” ire felt headache. When an assassin met an assassin, it seemed like neither one could benefit.


    “Yes, mistress. I would always stay by your side to protect you.” Jean said extremely seriously.


    And there was a party tonight... ire closed her eyes and sighed. She didn’t want to go if possible.


    “Now you know how troublesome it is. You really fueled the trouble; any men would be die vomiting blood because of your insult. I really pity that person. Tricked, defeated, and even stepped on the back. Oh yeah, it is going to be a delightful eternal performance. Now we are going to be pleased.” Walter said,pletely opposite of what he was thinking. He was like a raven being steamed, bickering incessantly.


    ire did not say anything but pulled out the Spiritual stone and pinched forcefully on it.


    Walter twitched and quieted.


    The world was silent.


    Jean saw ire pinch the Spiritual stone then casually put the stone back, her expression was the same as before. Not knowing why, he felt cold. Suddenly he pitied Walter, and somewhat understood why Walter always called ire a little demon.


    The dinner party was held as usual and ire appeared in a ck formal dress and looked brilliant. At this night’s party, she became the main character and naturally, Lashia was not present. The emperor went through the formal speech, and then the party began. Nobles surrounded ire, and their talking made ire’s head ache. Many were those who Duke Gordan told her to befriend. But there were also some nobles that stood at a distance, and they all gazed in confusion at her side.


    “Okay, everyone, ire and I have appointment. If you do not mind, I have to borrow ire for a moment.” Princess Maurice appeared and smiled, keeping “harassments” away from ire.


    ire’s eyes shed with gratitude. Princess Maurice and ire withdrew to the balcony and then ire let out a light sigh. If it wasn’t for Duke Gordan waving her over, she would have definitely not paid attention to those boring aristocrats.


    “ire, you were really great today.” Princess Maurice’s eyes shed with light, admiring ire sincerely.


    ire bitterlyughed and shook her head. Really, in terms of brute force, she was far from being Yixuan Feng’s match. It was just that she won this time using a hidden card. If Yixuan Feng knew she could use Dou Qi, he wouldn’t have so brashly challenged her. But this night, she didn’t seem to have seen that guy’s presence.


    “It’s been said that Yixuan Feng has been muddleheaded this whole time, not sober. It’s probably because he was shocked.” Princess Maurice said with a proud smile. In her eyes, ire was the hero that hadpletely defeated that guy!


    Muddleheaded this whole time? ire was a bit surprised. What was going on?


    Yixuan Feng and Wenmo Shui both didn’t attend the banquet. Yixuan Fengy on the courier hostel’s bed, not moving at all. Wenmo Shui was aside, guarding him while chewing chicken.


    The ambassador was extremely worried about Yixuan Feng’s situation, so he didn’t force them to attend this humiliating sending-off banquet. Yixuan Feng’s background wasn’t something the ambassador could afford to offend.


    “Humph! Do you want to die or are you already dead?” Wenmo Shui asked, his words blurry. After Wenmo Shui knew that Yixuan Feng could bear that strike, he wasn’t polite anymore. He sat on a chair nearby with his foot stepping on Yixuan Feng’s butt while chewing roasted chicken.


    Yixuan Feng was silent, lying on there, still daydreaming.


    “If you didn’t die, then eat something. Wait until the banquet ends and we’ll leave this night. I don’t want to stay at this damned ce at all.” Wenmo Shui grumbled while chewing a roasted chicken wing.


    “How beautiful, how valiant... ” Yixuan Feng’s tiny voice quietly sounded, seeming like he ignored the Wenmo Shui’s stinky pig foot on his butt.


    “What?” Wenmo Shui asked, confused, spitting out the bones in his mouth.


    “How valiant, how enchanting she is... ” This time Wenmo Shui heard Yixuan Feng clearly.


    What?!!


    Wenmo Shui instantly had an ominous premonition.
