Chapter 313: Chapter 205: The Advancing Shen Xinglan!_3

------

As the "Lie Down" campaign by Tang Fei’s organization gained traction online, more and more people were persuaded to "lie down."

"Lying flat is winning."

"There is nothing difficult in this world, as long as you’re willing to give up."

"Don’t always blame yourself, blame others more."

"As long as we are willing to endure hardship, there will be endless hardships..."

------

Eventually, Tang Fei became wildly famous online in such a ludicrous way.

Moreover, members of Tang Fei’s organization discovered that their idol, the core member of the organization, had soared to the top fifty on the Star Sky ranking.

He had always been at the bottom of the list, but his recent performances were too eye-catching.

First, he was accepted into the White Crane Academy based on his performance at the Imperial First Military Academy, then he was taken as a close disciple by Xuanyuan Mingjing, and soon after entering the Academy, he won the championship in the mechanical competition...

Everyone could see that he was a rising star of the Phoenix Empire.

Fans’ eyes reddened as they cried out:

"Young master, if you keep working this hard, you won’t deserve us fans anymore..."

From the rankings, Tang Fei was still quite far from Shen Xinglan.

However, in terms of growth rate and increase, Shen Xinglan was far behind.

After so many years, he hadn’t progressed at all.

------

Shen Xinglan had just finished bathing and was drying his hair when the phone on the table rang,

He walked over to the phone, glanced at the caller ID, and then pressed the video answer button.

Soon, Shen Boyu’s virtual projection appeared in the room.

Shen Boyu looked at Shen Xinglan with a grin and asked, "What’s up? Just finished some work?"

"Farewell banquet, had a few drinks," Shen Xinglan explained.

"What’s going on? Taking on six at once, that’s not your style," Shen Boyu looked at Shen Xinglan’s flawlessly handsome face, full of admiration for the Shen family’s excellent genes.

The Shen family produced talents, not just in abilities but even their looks were a source of pride for the Shen family.

Shen Xinglan pondered for a moment and said, "I admit, I was influenced by Tang Fei... He won the mechanical competition, and I must win the martial arts competition. Moreover, I have to win it more easily and more gracefully."

"The pike effect?" Shen Boyu burst into laughter and said, "Xuanyuan Mingjing is truly a great teacher, to have ignited such a spirit in our Xing Lan..."

"With your non-competitive nature, it’s rare for you to want something... But that’s also a good thing."

Shen Boyu’s smile suddenly stopped, and he said in a serious tone, "However, this is like putting yourself and our Shen family on the grill."

Shen Xinglan looked slightly surprised and asked, "What do you mean? Is a fight between students that serious?"

"Didn’t you see the news?"

"No," Shen Xinglan shook his head, "I rarely watch the news."

Shen Xinglan led a traditional lifestyle, not streaming videos, not playing games, and seldom watching the news.

If it was something concerning him or the Shen family, someone would notify him immediately.

Moreover, all intelligence reports from various Shen family branches would be sent to him as well.

He knew things others did not, and things he didn’t know, he did not need to.

The information on the internet was too cluttered, mixed with truth and falsity, and he neither had the time nor the inclination to sift through it.

"Your feat of taking on six opponents and winning the martial arts championship has been posted online, it’s already reached number one on the trending list..."

"Domestic web?"

"No, the world web."

"..."

Shen Boyu looked at Shen Xinglan’s furrowed brow and said softly, "You were targeted. What was meant to be a friendly exchange between countries... was spun by them into you single-handedly wiping out the Aus Empire delegation..."

"As much as the Phoenix people love you, the Aus people hate you... This means you alone will bear the Aus people’s anger and the coming retaliation..."

"I’m not afraid!" Shen Xinglan said resolutely.

Come the soldiers to block, and the water to drown.

Love or hate.

If anyone dares to draw a sword against you, then cut them down with one strike.

"I’m not afraid, but I am," Shen Boyu sighed softly, "The Shen family is afraid."
