t this way I'll give you a 20% discount. You choose a gemstone worth one hundred million yuan from me, and I'll consider that as fulfilling my bet."At this point, he dared not provoke Ye Bufan anymore..."Stop right there!"

Chu Lingxi let out a furious shout and was about to rush forward to stop Guan Dechun, but Duan Wei stepped in front of her first.

"Chu Xueshi, your opponent is me!"

"Get out of here."

Chu Lingxi raised her hand and slapped him in the chest.

Alas, she was only ranked 47th on the Heavenly List and her cultivation was only at the middle stage of the Divine Transformation Realm, while Duan Wei was a powerhouse in the late stage of the Divine Transformation Realm, one level stronger than her.

In the blink of an eye, they exchanged four or five moves. She was pinned down, unable to move, let alone rush to Ye Bufan's aid.

Ye Bufan watched the approaching Guan Dekun, and couldn't help but frown slightly.

This old geezer is also at the Nascent Soul late-stage cultivation. With my current abilities, I can even kill a cultivator from a higher realm if it's just the early Nascent Soul stage. Against the middle stage, I can barely hold my own, but against the late stage, there's no chance of winning.

To deal with the opponent, he would either summon Ye Erlang or use a particle gun, but both of those were secrets he didn't want to reveal.

Guan Dechun, however, was unaware of all this. Seeing his silence, he mistook it for fear and sneered, "Boy, do you know what fear is now It's too late."

At this point, he thrust his right index finger out with a fierce wind, directly aiming at the opponent's dantian.

Seeing that there was nowhere to hide, Ye Bufan was about to summon Ye Erlang when a furious voice suddenly rang out in his ear: “I’ll see who dares touch my man!”

Then a fragrant breeze swept in, and a figure descended from the sky, blocking his path. A powerful aura enveloped the entire area.

"Uh..."

Guan Dechun was startled. The other party's pressure was at least that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, something he couldn't possibly handle. He hurriedly retracted his attack and retreated.

At the same time, the eyes of others also gathered around. When they saw the person protecting Ye Bufan, they were all taken aback.

It wasn't someone else, but Lu Xue Man, the first beauty of Cangfeng Academy and known as the first martial arts genius.

At this moment, her long hair cascaded down her shoulders, and her white clothes fluttered in the breeze. She looked like a fairy descended from heaven, stunningly beautiful. Yet, there was something about her that made it impossible to feel any disrespect towards her.

After confirming her identity, a new wave of shock and awe swept through the crowd. Everyone had heard her powerful shout clearly just now.

What does that mean What do you mean by who dares to hurt my man Who is her man Looks like she's talking about Ye Bufan

"What does it mean by 'eligible bachelor' Doesn't that mean the school's top beauty was actually taken by him"

To know that Lu Xueman is the first beauty of Cangfeng Academy, the goddess in the hearts of countless men, and for many years, countless young talents have pursued her, all being turned away.

But now suddenly saying that she had her own man, this undoubtedly exploded like a thunderbolt in everyone's heart, shocking them beyond words.

After a moment of silence, the scene erupted in chaos. People whispered and discussed excitedly, some even pounded their chests and wailed with grief.

"My goddess, has my goddess simply vanished like this"

"My God, what does that kid have To get the senior sister's favor, I must fight him, I must duel with him..."

Looking at the scene before him, Ye Bufan couldn't help but smile wryly. This woman's arrival was somewhat unexpected, but for himself, it was a mixed bag of joy and sorrow.

The joy is that we are able to solve the immediate trouble, and there's no need to prematurely expose our hand. The worry is that this will lead to endless troubles in the future.

He still vividly remembered the nickname Jiang Fangzhou had mentioned - Enemy of Ten Thousand.

Now there's no doubt about it, he's got it on his own head, and from now on he'll inevitably become the public enemy of all men in the entire academy.

At this moment, Duan Wei and Chu Lingxi beside them also stopped. Now that the situation had changed, there was no need for them to entangle each other, and naturally there was no need to continue fighting.

After a brief moment of daze, Guan Dechun immediately put on a smile: "Lu Xue Man, what do you mean"

As academy top 10 students, each of them is eligible to participate in the rookie ranking match and may enter a major sect in the future, or even become an important official in the royal court.

So these people, even if they were high-ranking members of the academy, would have to look at them with respect. In terms of status, they were far higher than an ordinary instructor, and he naturally dared not show any disrespect.

Lu Xue Man's expression was cold and stern: "Teacher Guan, I have a question for you. What do you mean by that Why did you attack my man"

As soon as she said this, the people present became agitated again. Many men heard the sound of their own hearts breaking.

Their goddess once again gave a definitive answer, declaring Ye Bufan as her man. Even the most obtuse person would understand what this meant.

Even Chu Lingxi was astonished this time. She first sized up Lu Xueman, then glanced at Ye Bufan, unable to understand how this man had captured the heart of the academy's first beauty. “This...”

Guan Dexchun secretly cried out in his heart, today's affairs were thoroughly beyond handle. He should have known about this man's relationship with Lu Xue'man earlier; no matter what, he would not have taken on today's trouble.

Now it's neither possible to advance nor retreat, it has become a hot potato.

Lu Xue Man's status at the academy was special. Not only was she ranked third on the Heavenly Ranking, but she was also a renowned first martial arts prodigy. It was only a matter of time before she reached the top of the Heavenly Ranking.

Such a person is highly valued by the academy, treated almost like a deity, something that Duan Wei could never hope to achieve.

Duan Wei raised an eyebrow, knowing how arrogant the woman before him was. Even countless talented people on the Heavenly List didn't matter to her; how could she possibly look favorably upon a mere early stage Yuan Ying like himself

So he completely didn't believe Lu Xueman's words just now, thinking it was just an excuse.

"Sister Lu, you weren't here earlier. This person was insubordinate, assaulted a senior student from the Zhongyuan Institute, and showed disrespect to our mentor. It was only right to strip him of his cultivation."

"That's not right." Chu Lingxi said first, "Senior Sister Lu, it's them who are being unreasonable..."

She recounted everything she had witnessed, from beginning to end, and finally said, “It was Wei Ping who bullied the new students first, and ended up losing to Ye Bufan. He is now angry and blaming others.”

This is complete nonsense, shameless!

Duang Wei let out a cold smile: "Chu xiaomei, why do you see things so differently from me He clearly maliciously slandered the senior and showed extreme disrespect to Teacher Duang."

"You're lying! Everyone saw it, there are so many witnesses!"

Chu Lingxi looked at the crowd beside her with righteous indignation, "Everyone, speak up for fairness, what's going on here"

To her surprise, upon finishing her words, she found all the students in attendance retreating one by one, their heads bowed low, not daring to meet her gaze. Not a single soul stood up to vouch for her.

Only Jiang Fangzhou stood firmly by Ye Bufan's side, but as one of the parties involved, he had no persuasive power.

It's no wonder that these students can't afford to offend either Duan Wei, ranked 23rd on the Heavenly Rankings, or their mentor, Guan Dechun.

Students who passed the assessment and entered the academy dared not offend anyone. Those who failed the assessment and hoped to try again next year were even more afraid to disobey, so they all chose to bow their heads in silence.astern Hua Immortal King quickly brought him back to his senses.
