It was a great chance to go on a date with the woman of his dreams, but because of a girl who suddenly appeared in his mind, it was destroyed. Under Xu Xin's curious gaze, Happy walked in front of her in a daze. They looked at each other without a word until they returned to the university and sent Xu Xin to the girl's dorm.
"Are you okay?"
Xu Xin stood on the stairs leading to the girl's dorm and stared at Happy, whose face was pale with worry.
Happy forced himself to smile.
"I'm fine. I'll be fine after I go back and sleep."
"Alright. Go back and rest." Xu Xin waved her hand.
Happy did not hesitate. He turned around and dragged his feet back to his dorm.
"Another call!"
His phone rang. Happy took it out and saw Xu Xin's phone number.
"Hello."
"Are you resting?" The voice on the other end of the phone was incredibly gentle and warm, causing Happy's originally cold chest to become much warmer. He could not help but nod and hum. "I'm a little better now."
The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment before she said,
"Then, I'll see you tomorrow?"
"See you tomorrow."
Once he hung up, Happy sat down in front of his computer listlessly. He breathed a few times before his gaze landed on a name on South China Martial Arts Ranking Board. His gaze changed from the initial warmth to confusion to pain and struggle. He did not know how much time had passed before he finally sucked in a deep breath, and determination appeared in his eyes.
In his previous life, she had adored him, idolized him, and became the woman he would remember the most. In the end, she ended up hurting him and turning her back on him. In this life …
Happy sighed deeply. There was a faint hint of anguish at the corners of his lips. He sat back down on his bed with an incredibly heavy heart and slowly put on the silver helmet that was as warm as jade.
"I won't give you the chance to hurt me again!"
Once the scene in front of him changed to that of the valley, the bright sun in the sky burned the ground. It continuously released high heat, and it made Happy's cold mood turn slightly better.
Flap flap flap …
Soon after he stood still, a white messenger pigeon flapped its wings and appeared in front of him.
Happy was slightly stunned. He grabbed it in his hand with familiar movements and carefully removed the letter tied to the messenger pigeon's leg. He cast it a glance and frowned before he opened it.
It was not a letter from Whirlwind Young Li or the others, but a messenger pigeon from an enemy he had met once before. It could be said that they had a bad relationship with each other.
The signature at the end of the letter was — Nangong Ying.
In the letter, Nangong Ying said that Dragon Tiger Sect did not ask for his forgiveness, but that they would use their actions to change the bad habits of Dragon Tiger Sect. Nangong Ying had already replaced Long Meng as the vice sect master of Dragon Tiger Sect. She had also set up strict rules and regulations to restrain the sect members. She expressed that she was willing to use money to make up for the trouble caused by the two provocations and hoped that there would be a chance for them to become friends or even partners in the future.
Happy was not in a good mood, so he naturally did not pay much attention to Dragon Tiger Sect's message. He did not pay much attention to it either. He gave a curt reply, "You worry too much." Then, he continued to train in the valley.
If there was someone else around, they would definitely be able to unleash their full potential, and Happy's training would be even fiercer than before! He was even more serious! Not only did he move like a gust of wind when he activated Cloud Treading Steps and was filled with murderous intent, even when he circulated his qi cultivation technique, there was a thick, murderous aura around him. If Dragon Tiger Sect appeared at this moment, they might not be able to escape unscathed like they did during the day.
…
The deadline to sign up for the martial arts tournament organized by South China Martial Arts Ranking Board was on the second day. There were more than four thousand people who signed up for the martial arts tournament. Among them were students from some of the smaller academies in the area, as well as the seniors who had graduated from the previous batch. The tournament was incredibly lively.
For the sake of the offline martial arts tournament in the various regions, the officials had specially set up a path for the participants. All the people who signed up for the tournament would receive a number, and they would enter the specialized martial arts arena from the government office in the city.
To verify his thoughts, Happy also signed up and joined the tournament.
Happy ran into Nangong Ying before the martial arts tournament was held in the government office in Gusu City. She was also going to join the martial arts tournament, but Happy did not know which region she belonged to.
"H-hello."
The woman who was as arrogant as a goddess when she was in Jade Gate Restaurant suddenly saw Happy when she was caught off guard. Her heart instantly raced, and even when she spoke, she became a little nervous. Once she sucked in a deep breath, she noticed that Happy seemed to be thinking about something and did not notice her at all. She could not help but feel a little annoyed.
"Hey!"
Her slightly raised voice finally snapped Happy out of his daze. He frowned and sized up Nangong Ying. He nodded faintly and said, "Nice to meet you." Then, he did not say anything else.
"Are you here to join the martial arts tournament as well? Which region are you from? "
When she noticed that Happy did not seem to be as domineering as he was the second time they met, Nangong Ying released a breath of relief and gathered her courage to ask.
Happy wiped his Noble Sword in a languid manner and ignored it.
"Hmph! If you don't want to say it, then I won't. "
Nangong Ying did not dare say it out loud. She rolled her eyes in vexation and criticized him in her heart. He looked very charming and had a mischievous personality.
But …
In her eyes, the Blue-robed Noble Sword User would definitely shine brilliantly in the martial arts tournament. At that time, it would not be difficult for her to figure out which region he was from the information announced on the official website.
Even though she was a little disappointed and knew that she had no chance of getting one of the top few in the martial arts tournament, when she thought about how she would be able to figure out his identity, she felt incredibly smug.
When the martial arts tournament started, the two of them did not say a single word to each other.
The scene in front of him changed, and Happy found himself on an empty stage. He looked around. The stage was made of sturdy marble, and it was around four to five meters above the ground. However, the diameter of the stage itself was less than twenty-five meters. There was very little space for him to move and dodge, and there were no spectators around him.
Happy frowned and suddenly remembered Nangong Ying's attire. He quickly brought out a set of clothes from his Universe Bag, drew his Noble Sword, and swung it a few times in the air. He then extended his hand to grab a triangular piece of cloth and tied it around his face.
Once he was done, a figure appeared on the other side of the stage.
It was a girl.
The system notification rose in time.
"This is an elimination tournament. Participants will need to go through seven rounds of battle. Those who win four rounds or more will be able to enter the next round!
"The time limit for each round is ten minutes. If the participant admits defeat, they can withdraw from the current round. If they are killed or fall off the stage, they will be considered to have lost and will automatically enter the next round.
"The first round will be between two members of South China Martial Arts Ranking Board — Happy and Glutinous Rice."
"… Glutinous Rice?"
"Happy?"
The girl who could be considered pretty gave off the air of a woman. She was slender and elegant. She blinked, as if she found the other person's name to be incredibly funny, just like Happy.
Happy did not think about it for long. He thought about it, but he did not have any memories of that name. He immediately swung his longsword, and the Noble Sword let out a clear sword whine. He charged forward with his sword and charged at his opponent.
