Chapter 179: The Messy Affair Between Hong Chenyi and Shi Huiyu

“Next, let’s welcome the first batch of contestants for Arena No. 1 today!”

“I believe I don’t need to elaborate too much on the two contestants in this match, but for the sake of the students who don’t yet understand their records, as well as our friends from the neighboring academy who have just arrived for the exchange, I will recount them for everyone before the match!”

“Appearing on our left is contestant No. 14, the class president of Class 14, Yang Yuehan. Her fame originated the day before the Newcomer Competition. With that performance of tearing apart an entire spell ritual, she earned the title of Hand of God, but this title was quickly eliminated.”

“However, no one felt sorry for the passing of this title for even a moment. The title that immediately arrived on the battlefield was Explosive Witch!”

“Although there are quite a few seniors in the Witch Academy who hold the title of Explosive Witch, and there’s even a club founded on it, you still shouldn’t underestimate the value of this title! As the saying goes, a generation’s version, a generation’s god, and this batch’s Explosive Witch is a god among gods!”

“With a Fireball spellbook, confirmed by the referee, she managed to shatter a thousand-point super consumption transformation spellbook!”

“This achievement will leave a rich and colorful mark in the history of the Witch Academy. This will be an unprecedented performance, one that is unlikely to be surpassed!”

“Although she was narrowly defeated by this batch’s No. 1 contestant due to going out of bounds in the end, contestant No. 14 quickly fought her way out of the revival round with a crushing momentum, charging all the way here! And her title has gradually changed to something like transformation spellbook killer. This title is a bit long, but it doesn’t detract from contestant Yang Yuehan’s outstanding performance in this Newcomer Competition!”

“And the one she is about to face now is No. 36, the class president of Class 36, Shi Huiyu. This class president has been the quiet and unknown type from the very beginning, yet she has fought her way here, which is nothing short of surprising!”

“However, looking back at her past matches, Shi Huiyu doesn’t seem to have any particularly brilliant performances, but there is a lot of various gossip about her circulating on the academy’s network. Since the information has not been confirmed by the person herself, I will not elaborate on it here.”

The commentator on the live broadcast was still going on, but time on the field waits for no one.

At this moment, I followed the referee onto the familiar combat stage.

And Shi Huiyu was opposite me.

“Are you two ready?” the referee looked at both of us, especially at me, and then asked.

After all, I had a prior record, so the referee naturally respected my opinion.

“Before we start, can you let me ask a few questions first?”

“You may, but be quick.”

The referee gave an affirmative reply to my proposal.

After all, there weren’t many matches in the morning.

Even if they used those battles for detailed ranking to fill the time, the quality wasn’t actually high.

“Okay, student Shi Huiyu, I heard you know Hong Chenyi, is that right?”

I smiled and nodded, then looked over at Shi Huiyu.

She didn’t expect me to suddenly ask a question and was still a bit stunned at the moment.

“Yes, that’s right, what’s wrong? Do you know that person too?”

After coming to her senses, Shi Huiyu also responded quickly, even speaking very frankly.

“Yes, she is a student in my Class 14, so of course I know her. I just wanted to ask, is it true that she started pursuing you before she even entered the Witch Academy, and that she has been chasing you for so many years?”

“It’s true.”

She nodded and admitted it without even thinking.

“I see… Then why didn’t you agree?”

Hearing Shi Huiyu admit it, I was also a little surprised.

Hong Chenyi didn’t lie to me?

Hong Chenyi really simped for that long.

“I like girls, otherwise why would I come to the Witch Academy?”

Shi Huiyu looked at my puzzled expression and, without any concealment, just told me this piece of information.

“Ah?”

At this moment, my eyes widened.

A devoted simp for a lesbian?

After all these years, she couldn't even simp her sexual orientation straight.

Did Hong Chenyi even simp seriously?

Or is Shi Huiyu just really that bent?

“What? You find me disgusting too? In that case, there’s nothing more to say. Even though I know I’m not your match, I won’t give up easily.”

Shi Huiyu said as she assumed a combat stance.

Looking at her, she was probably the type to start with a transformation spell.

“Oh… no, no, no, my sexual orientation is also female, and I don’t discriminate against any sexual orientation.”

I quickly waved my hands and said.

“Ah?! A kindred spirit? It’s a pity, if you weren’t so strong, you might have been to my taste…”

“Tsk… don’t just evaluate people so arbitrarily.”

What does she mean I’d be to her taste?

Does she mean any lesbian weaker than her is to her taste!

“No, you’ve led me astray. Since you like girls, Hong Chenyi is a girl now too.”

“I know that, of course, but she herself said she has been to Fengqing Street. I’m a bit of a clean freak, so it’s even more impossible for me to accept her pursuit. I’ve heard about the Witch Academy’s Fengqing Street.”

“Ah?”

“But for being so honest, I think we can still be friends. Besides, she’s still a virgin, so I can let her be my bestie, girlfriend, or something.”

This time, Shi Huiyu’s words silenced me completely.

I didn’t expect the truth to be like this?

So Hong Chenyi even though she said she was done simping, she still kept herself chaste for Shi Huiyu?

Wouldn’t this make her the shame of Fengqing Street?

At this moment, I felt a critical hit from two people.

I felt like I shouldn’t have asked this question at all.

It feels like I’ve uncovered some incredible inside story.

Fortunately, the voices here probably won’t travel too far, I hope.

But I still have to feel for Hong Chenyi tsk, I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I feel that the tone in which Shi Huiyu said “girlfriend” was not quite right.

“Let’s just start the battle…”

I was the first to end the chat on the field.

Although I really like people who speak so frankly and am willing to chat with such people, it was clear that the current topic was very wrong.

“Okay, I’m ready too then.”

Seeing that I had ended the topic, she stopped talking and once again assumed a combat stance.

“Both sides are ready, right?”

At this moment, the referee also understood our intentions and asked again.

“Then let the match begin!”

“So you’re saying you gained nothing?”

Ai Li'er was currently by Yao Beijuan’s side.

Yesterday, she saw Yao Beijuan return in such a dejected state and was a little puzzled, but asking was the same as not asking.

After spending a night at the accommodation provided by the Witch Academy and waiting for Yao Beijuan’s emotions to stabilize, she took the current opportunity to roughly understand what had happened yesterday.

The other party was indeed Yao Beijuan’s ex-boyfriend.

Although this had been guessed before, actually learning of it still surprised her a little.

The fact that the other party could obtain that wisp of destiny meant that he had contact with Tan Han, and their relationship was even profound, so she went to deliberately look up some information about him.

Now she had a general impression of this person.

An Innate Spirit Visionary, this was a piece of information that couldn’t be covered up even if one wanted to, but the other party was not a Child of Destiny.

Originally, she had hoped that Yao Beijuan could be more successful and get that wisp of destiny to water her seed of destiny.

Now it seemed this was just a beautiful fantasy, and it was her own failure.

But the selection of a Child of Destiny never looked at character, temperament, or any other qualities, because all of this would be continuously pushed forward, grown, and transformed within the script until maturity.

You can deny her present, but you cannot deny her future.

Even if there are so many Children of Destiny now, the ending is not yet decided.

Who can say that she is the one destined to be bad?

What if the script’s final outcome is a reversal?

It’s not a good practice to jump to conclusions too early, but they have already entered the game and even have their own stances, so they can place their bets in advance.

Even though Aphrodite Academy had many so-called candidates Children of Destiny because they had detected it in advance, no one dared to say they would give up on any of them.

The one who said to give up was the pawn that should be abandoned the most.

But at this moment, it didn’t stop Ai Li'er from questioning Yao Beijuan’s current abilities.

Her disadvantage was still too great.

According to her current understanding, she couldn’t even compare to that gender-bent boy who wasn’t even a Child of Destiny.

The other party could even withstand a plot kill head-on and seize a wisp of destiny.

This in itself was ridiculous.

And this wisp of destiny, if not through overwhelming power, probably couldn’t be taken by anyone, except for Yao Beijuan.

Yao Beijuan had a natural connection with that boy, even being in a former girlfriend-boyfriend relationship.

With this relationship, it meant she had other ways to obtain this destiny, perhaps by getting back together, perhaps by a decisive break-up, or in a way that she couldn’t even imagine.

“Gained? What do you mean?”

At this moment, Yao Beijuan, who had just finished recounting, didn’t understand what Teacher Ai Li'er meant.

“Further development, or a complete break?”

“This I don’t know…”

“But she suddenly called someone named Bai Yu over. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? She must have contacted that person to come over.”

Ai Li'er did not reply to the complaint, and the few students beside them did not dare to speak, or even discuss it.

The fact that they could come for the academy exchange competition meant they could see very clearly that even after entering a Transcendent Academy, there were differences in how students were treated by teachers.

Even though they didn’t know what caused this difference, based on their deductions, it was most likely due to “talent.”

“Alright, stop talking. Just watch the match properly. The opponent is not weak, you will face her again.”

Ai Li'er interrupted Yao Beijuan’s words and returned to her original self, with that cold attitude towards everyone.

But the few students next to her really wanted to say that the battle with the witch named Yang Yuehan they were talking about had already ended.

When Yao Beijuan came to her senses and was about to watch the match as Teacher Ai Li'er had said, she found that Arena No. 1 was now empty.

“Eh?”

But at this moment, there was no one to answer her.

However, at this moment, the male elf sitting on the other side seized the opportunity to move over again.

It was the same boy who had been sitting next to Yao Beijuan yesterday.

And at this time, Tan Han had already left the arena long ago.

She had long anticipated her bye, and with her overwhelming strength, no one would object to her getting a bye into the top ten.

She needed to find Teacher Lina.

After they parted yesterday, she went to ask Lina about modding spellbooks, but Teacher Lina’s attitude was naturally unsupportive.

But as Tan Han’s teacher, after nearly an afternoon of explanation and persuasion, she still told Tan Han, who had suddenly accepted too much of her own philosophy, to go back and think it over carefully, and then give her answer today.

But Tan Han actually already had an answer in her heart.

She was naturally very puzzled by the plan Lina had arranged for her.

Although she had listened, she still had her own persistence in this matter.

It was just that Tan Han didn’t know what she would have to face after she officially gave this answer today.

“Have you made up your mind?”

“Yes.”

“As you wish… here.”

“What is this?”

“Hehe, I went and swallowed my pride to ask that Xi Lan for a spot to join her research group.”

When Lina said this, she looked as pained as if her own corner had been poached.
