CHAPTER 331: CHAPTER 331: CELESTIAL RIVER SWORD QIONG XUE

Yuwen Yundie and Li Mingfeng, although surprised that Baiyu could win consecutively to reach the top fifty, didn’t believe he could continue to climb the ranks.

Keep in mind.

Going forward in the rankings, many clubs have third-year martial artists holding the fort.

Tier Six and Tier Seven Martial Artists are far beyond what their Tier Eight can contend with.

If someone else were trying to challenge the top ten, the two of them would have probably scoffed.

Only because it was Baiyu who said it.

The two of them considered it carefully, then realized it was simply impossible.

"Currently ranked tenth is the Literary Society, ninth is the Exploration Club—both are long-established clubs with elites abundant, even having Tier Six martial artists."

Lorna emphasized those two words: Tier Six.

Of course.

Baiyu isn’t a brute. He definitely won’t foolishly rush in to start a fight.

Tier Six Martial Artist.

Right now in school, he’s still not very confident in dealing with them.

If it were outside the school and they encountered each other in the wild.

Perhaps he could still fight a battle.

After all, he has quite a lot of strange and peculiar items on him, only useful in real life-and-death battles.

But to get the club into the top ten, there are still many other ways.

It’s normal for first-years not to beat third-years.

As long as the mindset doesn’t slide, there are always more ways than difficulties. If he isn’t a third-year, he can find a third-year, can’t he?

After all.

The opponent is also a Kendo Club veteran.

...

Nighttime.

At the café outside the school.

Qiong Xue had already refilled her ninth cup of coffee, but still had a sleepy expression on her face.

"Baiyu, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, I just really don’t want to go."

She yawned.

"Why don’t you want to go? The Kendo Club is your heart and soul, are you really willing to let it stay in such an embarrassing fiftieth place?"

Baiyu coaxed.

After the big contest during the day ended, he set his sights on Qiong Xue, but even just getting her to come out took quite a bit of effort.

Let alone the fact that she was already about to fall asleep after a few chats.

"The reason for not wanting to go is simple, one word, lazy."

Qiong Xue said matter-of-factly: "And the fact that the Kendo Club has this ranking now, I’m already quite gratified, it used to be at the bottom."

"You bastard, just say you’ll help or not, former president!"

Baiyu glared at her fiercely.

"I’ll help, since the Baron asks, how could I not help..." Qiong Xue said weakly: "Tell me why you want to fight for this rank."

"Don’t speak sarcastically all the time, this contest’s top ten, each club will get a chance to enter the ’Endless World’.

You should know about that thing.

Celestial South Martial Arts University’s S Level Sealing Object, possibly related to the Divine Relic.

I entered once during the entrance exam.

But at that time, restrictions were too great, I had no chance to explore."

Baiyu explained.

Qiong Xue squinted her eyes slightly, gulping down her last cup of coffee: "Okay, I’ve only been in there once too.

Now that you mention it, there might indeed be something good inside."

"Let’s settle it like that."

Baiyu confirmed the plan with a single stroke.

...

The next day.

Baiyu openly announced that he would continue to challenge and chose the Exploration Club as the unlucky one among the top ten clubs.

The opponent also gave a strong reply, immediately opting for a three-on-three battle.

"Baiyu, first place in the first-year entrance exam, good grades.

If you study for another two years, you might actually be able to challenge the top ten.

However...

You right now, you’re simply too arrogant!

Arrogant to the point of being conceited.

Today I’m going to let you know that we seniors are not those trash you fought below."

A burly man jumped into the battle area with a bang.

Outside the Exploration Club ground, dozens had gathered, mostly from other clubs spectating.

Challenges on the second floor occur rarely.

So whenever such a situation arises, it quickly spreads throughout the second-floor clubs.

Yuwen Yundie, Li Mingfeng, were both present in the surroundings.

"Baiyu’s foolishness, already been told there are third-year seniors, yet he dares go, does he just like embarrassing himself?"

Li Mingfeng shook his head below the platform.

Yuwen Yundie gave him a cold glance: "At least he’s better than you."

"Cough, cough... you speak too hurtfully.

Besides, I didn’t challenge the clubs in front because I want to conserve strength for the upcoming challenges after the top fifty."

Li Mingfeng said awkwardly.

His club is currently in the fiftieth place, stuck in neither here nor there.

Behind, there are still several opponents ready to pounce.

Of course.

Even if the clubs behind never challenge him, he wouldn’t dare take on the ones ahead and act recklessly.

He still has one challenge opportunity left in his club.

This is for emergencies, in case they’re defeated and drop out of the top fifty, they still have a chance to climb back up.

"It’s started."

At this moment, Yuwen Yundie focused her gaze.

The burly man from the Exploration Club is the strongest among the three vice presidents.

He is said to be just a bit weaker than the president.

Unexpectedly, he’s up for the first match.

This is obviously to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, to suppress Baiyu’s momentum, teach him a lesson.

"Baiyu is in trouble this time."

Yuwen Yundie also sensed the seriousness of the situation.

At that moment.

The student council referee walked to the edge of the battle area, looked at the Exploration Club participants, and spoke:

"Exploration Club, Vice President Luo Hou."

Then.

He recorded the information of the participating members in his notebook, then glanced at the Kendo Club.

Everyone’s eyes were on Baiyu.

The Vice President of the Exploration Club.

An experienced Tier Six Martial Artist, already at the Elite Level, at the stage of beginning cultivation, unlocking the body’s potential.

Tier Six and Tier Seven, form an insurmountable divide.

Moreover.

Baiyu is currently just a Tier Eight Martial Artist.

Many people from different societies were waiting to see Baiyu’s embarrassment, thinking he was too conceited lately and needed to be tempered.

Otherwise.

A first-year student overshadowing them all, where would their face be?

But.

After waiting for quite a while, Baiyu still stood in place, not making a move, as immovable as a mountain.

Amidst the puzzlement.

The referee’s voice rang out.

"Kendo Club member, Celestial River Sword Qiong Xue."

Turning their heads.

Qiong Xue stood opposite Luo Hou with her wooden sword slung over her shoulder.

The ease from the opponent’s face had completely vanished, replaced with helplessness.

"Qiong Xue, haven’t you already left the Swordsmanship Department?"

Luo Hou couldn’t help but ask.

"Ah, who told you that?

I only stepped down from the president position and handed it over to Baiyu.

I’m still a member of the Kendo Club.

If you don’t believe it.

You can ask others, I’m still teaching newcomers swordsmanship in the Kendo Club."

Qiong Xue gripped her wooden sword, her tone becoming serious: "Step down, I don’t want you to lose face in front of the first-year junior brothers and sisters, please."

Luo Hou’s face turned blue, anger flaring in his eyes.
