Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 1556: Chapter 1556: The Competition Begins! (Update 1)

Almost at the moment when Long Keyue sat on the bluestone platform, Zhu Wenjing’s teasing voice sounded behind Ye Haochuan.

”Ye Haochuan, you’re really something. I wondered why you didn’t wait for me; turns out you were so charmed by a beauty that you couldn’t move!”

Zhu Wenjing’s tone was full of jealousy, just hearing it made Ye Haochuan feel a twinge in his teeth.

Ye Haochuan felt a bit embarrassed. Earlier, because he hadn’t seen Long Keyue for a long time, he had chatted longer and really forgot about Zhu Wenjing.

”It’s nothing like that. Speaking of beauty, who could compare to a little beauty like you?” Ye Haochuan chuckled, pinching Zhu Wenjing’s cheek.

”Stop it!” Zhu Wenjing said angrily. ”How could I compare to the Long Family’s first miss? She’s the pride of heaven and the dream girl of almost everyone in Xuanmen!”

”She has her beauty, and you have yours. They’re two different kinds of beauty and can’t be compared!” Ye Haochuan responded with a smile.

”Really?” Zhu Wenjing, hearing this, felt inexplicably sweet inside, her childish nature revealing itself instantly. ”I truly don’t lose out to her in comparison?”

The name of Long Keyue was known to everyone in Xuanmen. Many young girls set her as their ultimate goal, and Zhu Wenjing was clearly no exception.

”Of course, even when compared to a celestial maiden, you wouldn’t lose out!” Ye Haochuan laughed.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wenjing’s large, beautiful eyes turned into crescents with her smile. ”Even though you said something that makes me so happy, I still have to remind you that Long Keyue is the Heavenly Maiden of Xuanmen. It’s best just to admire her from a distance; having any improper thoughts could be very troublesome!”

Damn, this girl thinks I’m secretly in love with Long Keyue!

Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but chuckle wryly.

Indeed, when Zhu Wenjing came in, Long Keyue had already parted ways with Ye Haochuan. If she had seen their previous intimate manner, who knows if she’d have been startled.

Thinking of Long Keyue, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help but glance again, noticing that Long Keyue’s expression showed signs of anger.

Damn, while worrying about Zhu Wenjing’s jealousy, I completely forgot about her.

Ye Haochuan’s heart grew bitter.

The intimate actions between Ye Haochuan and Zhu Wenjing just now were completely seen by Long Keyue. She had actually long heard of Ye Haochuan’s flirtatiousness. She even witnessed Ye Haochuan kissing Zhu Qingshuang before.

It was just that last time, she didn’t have any feelings for Ye Haochuan, so she didn’t think much of it. Now Ye Haochuan showing such intimacy with another woman in front of her was unacceptable.

”Is this the person you chose?” Ye Xiao’s Yin Yang voice suddenly arose.

”I just like his flirtatious nature, so what?” Long Keyue said, refusing to admit defeat.

”You...” Ye Xiao was once again furious to the point of smoking with rage, his hatred for Ye Haochuan rising another level.

Ye Haochuan, with no abilities, no family, yet still able to capture Long Keyue’s heart. He, Ye Xiao, not only the top genius but also from the foremost family in Xuanmen, still was inferior to such a person.

Although Long Keyue stood strong verbally, she felt quite distressed inside. She looked at Ye Haochuan with grievance, thinking of not ignoring him entirely due to this incident, but her inner self told her not to, as she had already given her heart to him.

”Blame that damn Kirin for linking my heart with this scoundrel!”

A moment of unwillingness and grievance mingled, ultimately bringing her self-comfort.

”Perhaps, he only sees her as a little sister! Yes, that must be it. No matter how you look at her, she’s only a teenager; she must be just a sister!”

With such self-consolation, she did feel much more at ease. With a thousand fetter-bound hearts like this, even if she wanted to harbor resentment towards Ye Haochuan, she couldn’t muster any grudges whatsoever.

Ye Haochuan didn’t know about Long Keyue’s thoughts, but seeing her face improve, he also felt at ease. He decided to have a proper talk with her after the competition to avoid leaving any misunderstanding.

Ever since having this heart link, he had already considered Long Keyue to be one of his women.

”Today’s competition, start now!”

On stage, it was still the burly man. While chatting with Long Yang before, he learned the name of this burly man.

This burly man was called Long Wei, a Nascent Soul Late Stage super expert of the Long Family. Moreover, he cultivated the same type of cultivation technique as Long Yang, against whom even ordinary Nascent Soul Peak wasn’t a match.

At that time, Ye Haochuan was secretly amazed. Long Yang’s style of fighting is extremely rare in Xuanmen and exceptionally powerful.

Long Yang is currently at the Core Formation Mid-Stage, while he has already reached Core Formation Late Stage. Even with the boundary advantage, plus the dual enhancement of Xuanwu Force Vein and Communicating with God Treasure Order, it’s still a draw.

Of course, Ye Haochuan hadn’t used his cultivation technique attacks, so he wasn’t going all out. But even so, Long Yang’s strength was still somewhat surprising to him.

Given Long Yang’s battle power at Core Formation Mid-Stage, it’s really hard to predict how formidable Long Wei would be at Nascent Soul Late Stage.

While Ye Haochuan’s thoughts flew, the first pair of contestants called by Long Wei had already stepped onto the stage for a match.

Yesterday, thirty competitors were selected: twenty over twenty years old, and ten under.

Due to the condensed competition system, the competition rules had also changed.

The three rounds of competitions today will not adopt the elimination system. After three rounds of randomly selected matches, five judges will select the five most outstanding performers together.

Therefore, the contests don’t matter between victory and defeat. As long as you fully showcase your ability and get the judges’ admiration, you have a chance to enter the top five.

Because the defeated won’t be eliminated, today’s matches strictly prohibit going too hard. If you injure your opponent, preventing them from participating in the next two rounds, you too will be disqualified.

Perhaps due to some fear of such rules, the first two participants on stage seemed tentative. They fought for a full half-hour without any verdict.

However, later, a cultivator seized an opening against his opponent but didn’t restrain his attack, putting his opponent in great danger.

He was initially desperate, thinking he’d surely be penalized. But then, he discovered Long Wei casually defused his attack and declared him the winner.

Everyone then realized Long Wei hadn’t left the ring from the start, just to let them fully exert themselves. As for that rule, it was merely to prevent intentional harm.

With this understanding, the second round’s pair became more relaxed, putting on a brilliantly intense match, deciding the winner in less than a minute.

Very soon, it was Zhu Wenjing’s name called. Her opponent was a Core Formation Mid-Stage expert. Zhu Wenjing, with no fear, energetically walked onto the stage.

Because of Ye Haochuan, Zhu Wenjing had already made substantial progress in actual combat. The Ruyi Soul Devouring Whip danced around, unleashing countless waves and winds.
