Mao Lang voluntarily gave up his match against Jiang Cheng, and the entire arena at the Treasure and Talismans Academy fell into a unified silence.

This silence lasted so long that it even caught the attention of the arenas of other departments nearby.

“Mr. Li, may I ask if my score for this match is valid?”

Jiang Cheng, clad in white, stood atop the high platform and politely inquired of Li Youyuan.

Li Youyuan looked at the scoring teacher.

The scoring teacher looked at Li Youyuan.

Li Youyuan looked at the guest teacher.

The guest teacher looked at Li Youyuan.

Li Youyuan looked at Jiang Cheng on the platform.

Jiang Cheng revealed a smile, understandingly saying, “It’s alright, I can certainly continue fighting.”

Those present took a sharp breath upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s tone.

What do you mean, you can keep fighting until the end of time?

“Stop fighting, let’s just leave it at that!”

Li Youyuan had grown fearful of Jiang Cheng.

From the current situation, although it was unclear what despicable means Jiang Cheng had used, the outcome was evident. No matter how many more matches were fought, Jiang Cheng’s opponents would always, as if under a powerful unbeatable influence, tacitly give up the match, thus securing Jiang Cheng’s victory.

“You all assign the score. If anyone objects, they can come up and fight Jiang Cheng!” Li Youyuan told the few scoring teachers.

Initially, there were indeed some scoring teachers who were not quite convinced, considering the way Jiang Cheng had won the matches was hardly something to be accepted without complaint.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

However, the thought of objecting by getting up there to fight made them reconsider.

On second thought, wasn’t Jiang Cheng’s victory quite reasonable? Who said that inducing your opponent to give up didn’t count as winning?

Turning a blind eye, there was no need to be at odds with oneself.

The scoring teachers glanced at Jiang Cheng’s spotless white robe and, after a brief hesitation, all gave him perfect scores.

It wasn’t that they wanted to award Jiang Cheng full marks, but rather they simply couldn’t find a reason to deduct any.

Jiang Cheng had used only one talisman and one spell from start to finish, both of which hit their mark, and their effectiveness was significant – how could they deduct points for that?

Although the scoring teachers very much disliked Jiang Cheng’s style of combat and did not wish to encourage subsequent students to fight like him, they couldn’t find any reason to deduct points.

After all, this guy had even managed to be polite, respectful to opponents, and had put friendship first.

It was as if he had taken the test precisely according to the requirements for a perfect score.

So, they had no choice but to give him full marks.

Having sent away the formidable presence that was Jiang Cheng, the combat assessments at the Treasure and Talismans Academy continued.

Even though the subsequent student fights were quite spectacular, the audience couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

It was as if, after witnessing Jiang Cheng’s courteous fighting, the other matches, with their grunts and swearing, seemed barbaric and crude.

Jiang Cheng, dressed in white, one admonition, one talisman, one victory.

The impression he left was indeed profound.

Behold, what is the art of combat – this, this is the art of combat!

After completing his examination, Jiang Cheng did not hurry away but went to meet Yue Linger and Cheng Bingxin, who were waiting for him outside the gymnasium.

Compared to Yue Linger, Cheng Bingxin even gave off an impression of being more familiar with Jiang Cheng.

“Hey! Your name is Jiang Cheng, right? I’m Cheng Bingxin, Yue Linger’s classmate, roommate, and close friend whom she shares everything with!”

Cheng Bingxin reached out her hand to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng shook her hand gently and properly, saying, “Nice to meet you, Senior Cheng.”

Cheng Bingxin patted Jiang Cheng’s arm, “Little brother, I am your senior from the previous year, also specializing in Talismans!”

Jiang Cheng nodded, “Yue mentioned that to me.”

Cheng Bingxin glanced at Yue Linger, “Aren’t you close with Ling’er? Why so distant with ‘Yue’ this and ‘Yue’ that?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Jiang Cheng shook his head, “We’re quite familiar, but I’ve always held Yue Linger in great esteem, so I’ve been calling her Yue this whole time.”

Cheng Bingxin waved dismissively and said, “No need to be so formal, from now on you can call her ‘Senior Yue’, or if you like, ‘Linger Senior’ would also do.”

After saying this, Cheng Bingxin revealed a mischievous grin, “Otherwise, you could just call her ‘Linger,’ I wouldn’t mind that either.”

Calling someone by their nickname is undoubtedly something that only very close people would do.

Yue Linger pinched Cheng Bingxin’s soft flesh in secret, retaliating for her deliberate mischief.

However, Jiang Cheng said to Yue Linger, “Yue, may I call you that?”

Yue Linger thought to herself, No, no, if you call me like that, we won’t be able to keep our relationship a secret! Rumors will fly all over Lotus University later!

But when it came to rejecting him, Yue Linger, with her eyes growing wider as she stared into Jiang Cheng’s eyes, found she couldn’t utter a word.

Her old problem had flared up again.

It seemed like she just couldn’t refuse Jiang Cheng, no matter what he asked of her!

Including the time Jiang Cheng called her late at night with a communication talisman, asking her to come over. She knew it wasn’t proper for a female cultivator to be so casual, but in the end, she resigned herself to it, and found herself at Jiang Cheng’s house, at his beck and call.

“If you don’t mind, then go ahead,” she said, turning her head away and gritting her teeth.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Cheng Bingxin, full of anticipation, said, “Jiang, call her, let’s hear it.”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, “Yue.”

Cheng Bingxin: ?

No, no, after all that back-and-forth with Yue Linger, shouldn’t you have taken the opportunity to decisively call her “Linger” and absolutely corner her? Why are you calling her “Yue” at this point—are you brainless, or is your brain just not functioning? Do you even know how to flirt with a girl!

Upon hearing “Yue,” Yue Linger felt a sense of loss, but externally, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If Jiang Cheng had truly called her “Linger,” then she could forget about ever raising her head in front of Cheng Bingxin in her college life.

But it was clear Cheng Bingxin wasn’t going to let it go.

There was definitely something fishy going on between Yue Linger and Jiang Cheng; their relationship was absolutely more than just “fellow townsfolk,” “senior-junior,” or “acquaintances.” It had to be!

At the very least, it was a case of unspoken affection!

There had to be a grand emotional drama!

Like Yue Linger, the senior who descended from the skies, meddling in the relationship between Jiang Cheng and his childhood sweetheart or something like that!

As Yue Linger’s best friend, Cheng Bingxin naturally hoped for Yue Linger to win.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Lovers should end up together!

Yue Linger, go for it fiercely for Mama!

But seeing how useless Yue Linger was acting, Cheng Bingxin was getting frustrated.

If you like someone, just say it. If you’re hesitant and beating around the bush, you deserve to be the loser!

You, Yue Linger, have the looks, the body, the grades, and a clean slate when it comes to love—it’s foolproof.

If you just confessed openly, how could anyone refuse you?

Could it be Jiang Cheng’s issue?

Does he not like women?

Cheng Bingxin looked at Jiang Cheng skeptically.

His gaze was particularly clear; he looked at her and Yue Linger, two great beauties, as if he hadn’t seen them at all.

Very strange.

She had to test him.

“Jiang, I’ll take you under my wing from now on. Don’t you feel like showing some initiative?” Cheng Bingxin said.

“Uh, how should I show it?” he asked.

“How about the ‘Immortal Sect Tea House’ outside of school? Both Linger and I have been at Lotus University for a year now and haven’t dared to go,” she replied.

Yue Linger tugged at Cheng Bingxin, signaling her to stop causing trouble.

Immortal Sect Tea House was pricey; they didn’t need to gouge Jiang Cheng like that.

But Jiang Cheng nodded right away and said, “Sure, whatever you say, senior.”

Cheng Bingxin’s eyes lit up.

That’s my boy—inviting her without a second thought. He must have real feelings for Yue Linger!

And not just a little bit at that!
