The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 297

Chapter 297: Fight Between the Noble and the Humble

"There's no nasty woman here but you, of course you aren't comparable to Wushuang," said Jiang Chen .

Murong Yuan was trembling with anger . She gave Du Yue a frigid stare .

"What a smooth talker!" Du Yue clenched his fists and his knuckles cracked .

"I have an idea . This month's test is coming up soon . Why don't you have a competition with Wushuang?" said Jiang Chen .

"Oh?"

Murong Yuan was intrigued and asked "How?"

"Elder Du Yue thinks everything is decided by one's background . We'll verify his theory with the winner of the competition .

"As the daughter of the Murongs, you have endless resources at your use, and you get better treatment than average people everywhere . If you lose, it means that what Elder Du Yue said is false," Jiang Chen finished his words calmly . The spectators also understood what he meant .

He was making a bet over Du Yue's words .

They had understood him, but at the same time, they weren't so sure, because Jiang Chen had no chance of winning .

Ying Wushuang and Murong Yuan had joined the Hero Palace together . During the year they had spent there, the former hadn't resembled someone from the Hero Palace at all except for the token she had .

On the other hand, the latter was always in the lead thanks to her fiancée's influence in the Hero Palace . The practice equipment in the Hero Palace was practically hers .

Since Jiang Chen had proposed that the two should have the competition in only two weeks, Ying Wushuang would definitely lose!

"Are you sure?" Even Murong Yuan was surprised .

It was only a test, so they wouldn't fight . The one who got a higher mark would win .

It was a bet without many surprises . Murong Yuan might have hesitated if he had proposed a fight .

Although they were in the same state, and she had practiced one more year than Ying Wushuang, she knew how excellent the latter had been at the Hero Palace .

At that moment, she sized Ying Wushuang up and knew what a hard time she had given the latter during the past year .

There were only two weeks left to prepare . Even if she allowed Ying Wushuang to use all of the practice equipment, she didn't have to worry about losing the bet .

"What are we betting?" asked Murong Yuan .

"If you lose, Elder Du Yue will apologize to all of the disciples for his ignorance . " Jiang Chen looked towards Du Yue and said, "This is the bet . "

"What if you lose?" asked Du Yue .

Jiang Chen looked towards Murong Yuan .

Murong Yuan said, "If you lose, when the test ends, you'll kneel down before me and beg for mercy, kissing my shoes . "

Du Yue had a weird feeling when he heard the bet, but he couldn't describe it in words .

"Elder Du Yue, you spoke up for me . I'll remember that," said Murong Yuan .

Then Du Yue tumbled to the realization that he was in the same boat as Murong Yuan, despite his identity as an elder .

The thing was, even if she won, he wouldn't gain any benefit from it .

Not until Murong Yuan had made this clear to Du Yue had he stopped struggling .

"You'll see how inferior you are," Du Yue said coldly .

"You'll see how ridiculous you are as an elder," said Jiang Chen .

"Huh . "

Du Yue stopped arguing with him and left .

"Let's go . "

Murong Yuan also left with her followers . She glanced at Ying Wushuang when leaving and said, "I didn't know you were so great at seducing men . It hasn't been long, yet this man is doing so much for you . "

"You!"

Ying Wushuang had conquered her own weakness and intended to argue with Murong Yuan, but Jiang Chen stopped her .

"The price of your slap will be your apology in two weeks . You'll know what tragedy is when you leave the Hero Palace . "

Murong Yuan left quickly without looking back .

Jiang Chen went back to his place with Ying Wushuang .

If it had been before, Ying Wushuang would have asked Jiang Chen many questions, but this time, she was silent .

"There are two weeks left . I'll help you," said Jiang Chen .

Ying Wushuang nodded involuntarily and said, "You shouldn't have bet on me . "

"Yeah? Tell me the truth . Did it feel good to talk back to her today? Are you looking forward to frustrating her in two weeks?" asked Jiang Chen .

Ying Wushuang was going to tell him no, but she couldn't say it, since he wasn't wrong .

"Two weeks . Can you do that?" asked Ying Wushuang .

"Of course, but you have to tell me what all this is about . "

Ying Wushuang hesitated . She faltered and mumbled, "You've already heard about it, haven't you?"

"Not from you . "

It seemed like he wouldn't simply let it go . Ying Wushuang said helplessly, "She and I were in the same superfine class in the same grade . We used to be good friends, until we came here .

"Thanks to her fiancée, we joined the Sword Association smoothly, and she introduced him to me .

"Mo Jianfei, the president of the Sword Association . He is…"

Ying Wushuang frowned . She didn't know how to describe him . Then she gazed at Jiang Chen and said, "As good as you . "

Jiang Chen was surprised . He smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment . "

"Anyway . "

Ying Wushuang curled her lips and went on . She said, "Mo Jianfei started to contact me privately . I didn't see it as a big deal at first, but his approaches became more and more frequent . When I realized there was something between us…

"He told me that it was only a political marriage between him and Murong Yuan . They weren't in love, but he had fallen in love with me at first sight . "

"Yeah?"

Jiang Chen found this interesting . He asked, "What did you say to him?"

From a woman's standpoint, Mo Jianfei was practically number one on the male version of the Beauty List .

He was interested to know how Ying Wushuang had replied .

"I admit that I had a crush on him and I struggled, but Murong Yuan was a good friend of mine . I couldn't betray her, so I turned him down .

"I thought if I didn't tell anyone about it, I could completely forget about it and no one would know .

"But one day, Murong Yuan went into my room with some people . They cut my clothes into pieces with scissors and expelled me from the Sword Association . What happened next, you already know . "

Seeing Ying Wushuang's expression, Jiang Chen felt cruel for bringing it up .

"Cry it out . "

"I've already cried enough . " Ying Wushuang squeezed out a smile, her voice hoarse .

"I guess today you learned who told Murong Yuan about it," said Jiang Chen .

"Yeah . " Ying Wushuang nodded .

"He was afraid you would tell Murong Yuan what had happened, so he told her you had seduced him . Although they aren't in love, this marriage is important for him . "

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "Please take the compliment back . "

"Why?"

"It's not a compliment to compare me to such a liar," said Jiang Chen .

Ying Wushuang didn't answer . It was difficult to see through her expression .

"Let's start . "

Ying Wushuang didn't want to waste any more time . The day's events had reignited her confidence .

"By the way, you know what the test requirements are, don't you?" Something suddenly occurred to her . She stared at Jiang Chen .

Since he had made the bet, he must have known, but normal people were the ones who made sure they knew what they were betting on .

She had a hunch that Jiang Chen wasn't quite a normal person .

As expected, Jiang Chen smiled embarrassedly and said, "Tell me now . I'll build the same equipment for you . "

Ying Wushuang was speechless .
