Chapter 457 – You're the One Being Tormented (Part One)

“Pfft—”

Laughter erupted sporadically around them, while their Prestige points skyrocketed by +10+10, rapidly accumulating over three thousand in a frenzy.

Qu Congjun had always been domineering, bullying others as if it were second nature. Previously, Class One and Class Six were far apart, so everyone coexisted peacefully without crossing paths. But this basketball tournament brought him face-to-face with Ye Yunxi. Sorry, but you can bully others all you want—just don’t come looking for trouble with me, Ye Yunxi!

“Ye Yunxi!”

Qu Congjun gritted his teeth as he uttered the name, his rage meter soaring. After years of arrogance, no one had ever dared to provoke him like this right to his face!

Especially when the one provoking him was a girl!

“You’re asking for death!”

Qu Congjun clenched his jaw, but someone from behind pulled him back—a member of Class Six.

“Hey, everyone’s watching. Do you still want to compete? If you want to crush someone, wait until the afternoon match and go all out!”

The speaker was Kong Jianping, the power forward of Class Six’s basketball team. He gave Ye Yunxi a smirk that didn’t reach his eyes, his gaze sweeping over the cold, vigilant expressions of Bai Jingchen and Heishui Cheng.

“Besides, with Berserker and Hegemon backing her, can you even win if you provoke her now?”” With that, he grabbed Qu Congjun and dragged him back toward Class Six’s seats.

“The Three Great Societies—untouchable, huh?”
The sarcastic, provocative tone made Bai Jingchen and Heishui Cheng frown.

Heishui couldn’t help but ask, “Is that someone from Blood Rebellion?”

“Yeah, Blood Rebellion recruited a lot of students like that this year. They’re probably aiming for a comeback this year.” Bai Jingchen adjusted his glasses. “The leaders of the Three Great Societies are all seniors this year. Once the college entrance exams are over, none of the societies have successors ready. Blood Rebellion must be trying to seize this chance to break into the top three.”

“Ha, that’s ridiculous! Do they even have the ability of our little junior Yunxi? Night Phoenix rose to become the fourth major society in Jun Yao in just half a year. Blood Rebellion has been quiet all this time—what do they amount to?”

Heishui Cheng sneered. If we’re talking about strength, he only saw Night Phoenix. What right did Blood Rebellion have to act arrogantly?

Bai Jingchen pushed his glasses up again. “We’ll be facing Blood Rebellion in the afternoon match. What’s the plan?”

“What else can we do? They dared to bully our leader. No need to say more—let’s just fight!”

Setting down his tray, Ye Lanshan propped one hand on the table, looking coolly at Ye Yunxi. He reached out and ruffled her soft hair. “Little cousin, I’ll secure first place for Night Phoenix among the sophomores!”

Tsk, pretty cool!

Ye Yunxi curled her lips. “Thanks.”

Bai Jingchen and Heishui Cheng exchanged glances, then both turned eager eyes toward Ye Lanshan. “Hey, want to join Hegemon/Berserker??”

Once the Sleeping Prince awakens, he’s quite capable too!

And he’s only a sophomore—if we recruit him, he could be the leader right away!

How did we not notice this dark horse earlier?

What a miscalculation!

“Sorry, but my heart and soul belong to the Ye family!”

Ye Lanshan yawned and sat down. While others used chopsticks to eat, he used a spoon—because it required less effort~~

“Ah!” Bai Jingchen sighed deeply. “What’s going on this year? We misjudged someone, and not just once!”

These two Ye siblings in front of them were anything but ordinary!

Could it be that extremes meet their opposites? Has the glory of the Three Great Societies reached its end with us?

Somehow, it feels a bit bittersweet!

The quarterfinals concluded in the morning, and the battle for first place would take place in the afternoon!As expected, Class Six advanced, though the team they competed against suffered a devastating loss.

Yet the referee couldn’t detect their tactics at all, leaving only the surrounding students fuming with rage, their eyes burning red.

“You’re intentionally hurting people!”

“That’s right, we all saw it! Class Six is trash!”

“Trash!!”

Qu Congjun snorted with a laugh, stepped on the basketball, and arrogantly declared, “If you’ve got what it takes, beat us on the court. If you lose, just shut your mouths and accept it!”
