*Whoosh!*
A beautiful figure suddenly appeared in the sky above the Great Wilderness County. She looked around, her gaze finally settling on a certain direction, and murmured, "It should be this direction, right?"
After speaking, she swiftly flew towards the direction she had just been looking.
The beautiful figure was none other than Ying Huanhuan. After parting ways with Qing Tan, this clone of her had headed towards Jiang Xue's residence. After some time, she finally arrived at the Great Wilderness County where Jiang Xue lived.
"This must be the Eagle Martial Arts School, right?"
After some more time, Ying Huanhuan arrived at the northeastern edge of the Great Wilderness County. She quickly found the location of the Eagle Martial Arts School. After a brief moment of sensing, she disappeared again, reappearing in a room within the Eagle Martial Arts School. Inside, a woman was tidying up; this woman was none other than Jiang Xue, whom Ying Huanhuan was looking for.
Although she was an extremely beautiful woman, Jiang Xue was startled to see someone suddenly appear in her room. She quickly asked, "Who are you?"
However, Ying Huanhuan still didn't respond, instead casting an invisible wave of energy at Jiang Xue, just as she had with Qing Tan.
"Huanhuan? What brings you here?" After a brief moment of surprise, Jiang Xue quickly recovered and was slightly surprised to see Ying Huanhuan in front of her.
Ying Huanhuan blinked at Jiang Xue, then sighed inwardly, and began speaking to Jiang Xue again, just as she had with Qing Tan.
As Ying Huanhuan spoke, Jiang Xue's pretty face flushed slightly. When she heard that Qing Tan had already done it, she was so shocked that her mouth dropped open.
"So? Sister Jiang Xue, are you willing to do it?"
Looking at Ying Huanhuan's smiling face, Jiang Xue blushed and lowered her head, unsure of what to say. Although she had done "that kind of thing" with other men in front of Lin Dong, doing it secretly behind his back still made her uneasy.
Seeing Jiang Xue's reaction, Ying Huanhuan remained silent, sitting quietly beside her like a statue. She understood the mental preparation required, as not everyone could accept it as easily as Qing Tan, and Jiang Xue might even refuse. However, Ying Huanhuan wasn't surprised. Such things weren't exactly pleasant, and refusal was normal. Ying Huanhuan couldn't force her to do it; she was simply giving them the choice.
After considering for a while, Jiang Xue gritted her teeth and nodded: "I'm willing."
"It's good that Sister Jiang Xue is willing," Ying Huanhuan nodded with a smile. "However," seeing Ying Huanhuan nod, Jiang Xue hesitated slightly, "Huanhuan, um, could I do it tomorrow? I want to mentally prepare myself a bit more."
Ying Huanhuan smiled slightly at Jiang Xue's expression, "Sister Jiang Xue, you don't need to ask me. Didn't Lin Dong say before? Do it if you want to, don't do it if you don't want to. He won't force you. If you don't want to do it now, why would I force you? It doesn't have to be tomorrow. Just do it when you want to. It's okay to postpone these things for a few days."
"It's okay, let's do it tomorrow." Jiang Xue was willing to do such a thing for Lin Dong, but after hearing Qing Tan immediately do it, Jiang Xue thought she might have to do the same thing right away. She felt it was a bit too fast, and she might not be able to accept it, so she asked. Now, seeing Ying Huanhuan say this, Jiang Xue breathed a slight sigh of relief. She had something to do tomorrow, and she could use that to finish the task. Although it wouldn't take long, she would at least have one night to calm down. "Tomorrow? Is something happening tomorrow?" Ying Huanhuan asked, somewhat puzzled, when she saw that Jiang Xue had set the date for tomorrow.
Seeing the conversation shift, Jiang Xue resumed her usual smile and replied to Ying Huanhuan, "Huanhuan, you know I'm the daughter of a martial arts school owner, right? And tomorrow is our school's annual competition, where everyone in the school will spar and compete against each other."
"Oh? I see," Ying Huanhuan nodded understandingly, then looked at Jiang Xue with a playful expression and mischievously asked, "Sister Jiang Xue, what are you planning to do in this year's competition? Can you tell me?"
Jiang Xue blinked, then covered her mouth mysteriously and chuckled softly, "You'll find out tomorrow."
The two then shifted their attention to other topics. Ying Huanhuan knew Jiang Xue was afraid of being shy about thinking about tomorrow, so she happily chatted with her to ease her anxiety. The night passed quickly, and the next morning, the Eagle Martial Arts School's annual competition began.
Ying Huanhuan and Jiang Xue entered the martial arts arena hand in hand. Ying Huanhuan concealed herself. The martial arts disciples were already lined up around the arena. Ying Huanhuan glanced around; the number of disciples was small, only a few dozen or a few hundred, and their strength wasn't particularly high. Compared to their Dao Sect, they were like fireflies compared to the bright moon.
Because today was a special day for the Eagle Martial Arts Academy, Jiang Xue wasn't dressed plainly as usual. Instead, she was specially dressed, wearing a light blue top and skirt that hugged her delicate figure. While not overly voluptuous, her curves were perfectly proportioned, like a naturally formed work of art. The light blue top accentuated her fullness, highlighting her upright posture, while the long light blue skirt fell to her calves, showcasing her slender legs. Even without makeup, she looked stunning. Even just standing there, Jiang Xue attracted countless gazes.
"Xue'er's here?" said a middle-aged man seated at the head of the stage. He was Jiang Xue's father, Jiang Lei.
Jiang Xue nodded in acknowledgment and sat down next to Jiang Lei. Although she was the senior disciple of the martial arts school, she wasn't participating in today's competition; she was merely observing from the sidelines.
After a while, seeing that everyone had arrived, Jiang Lei stood up and said, "Alright, enough talk. Let's begin this year's annual competition!"
"Hah!"
With a shout from the martial arts school's disciples, the Eagle Martial Arts School's annual competition officially began. The disciples began drawing lots to choose their opponents. Just as everyone had chosen their opponents and were preparing to fight, Jiang Xue signaled a pause and stood up.
"Wow! What's wrong with Senior Sister? She usually doesn't say anything during the annual competition, right? Why is she suddenly saying something today?" a disciple who was about to fight asked疑惑地.
"I don't know, maybe something important has come up? But Senior Sister is so beautiful! If I could marry such a beautiful senior sister, wouldn't I be incredibly happy?"
A tall, thin disciple replied, his words filled with admiration for Jiang Xue.
"Go to hell! You think you can marry Senior Sister? Go look in the mirror! If anyone's going to marry someone, it'll be me!"
The disciple's opponent retorted, clearly also an admirer of Jiang Xue.
"Huh? You? I'll beat you to death!" the tall, thin disciple said angrily.
"Come on! Who's afraid of who?" the tall, thin disciple retorted defiantly.
"Give me a break. How many people in this martial arts school don't like Senior Sister? Who gave you the right? Quiet down and listen to Senior Sister!" the disciple who had spoken first shouted.
Jiang Xue stood up, looking at her disciples below. A slight, almost imperceptible blush spread across her pretty face. She then spoke softly, "To ensure everyone has ample motivation for next year's annual competition, those who make it into the top eight will not only receive resources from the martial arts school, but I also plan to offer some special rewards myself. So, I hope everyone will perform well!"
"Wow!"
Jiang Xue's words were like a bombshell dropped on the disciples preparing for the competition. They were all eager and ready to show off their skills. Whatever the special rewards Jiang Xue mentioned were, anything given by her was a godsend to them.
The competition intensified under Jiang Xue's guidance, and after a period of selection, the top eight for this year's competition quickly emerged.
After their victories, the eight stood motionless in the arena, their eyes burning with anticipation as they watched Jiang Xue on the stage. They had fought tooth and nail, hoping for the special rewards she would bestow.
However, it wasn't just the eight people watching Jiang Xue on the stage; victors and vanquished alike, even the martial arts instructors—almost everyone present had their eyes on her.
