Chapter 163: Chapter 163: If You Dare Hurt Her, I’ll Kill You!

Yan Qianyi turned to look and saw a dark-skinned male student.

The student had both hands in his pockets, shoulders tilted and body leaning, exuding a ruffian vibe with a toothpick in his mouth, making the military uniform look gangster.

"I," the male student raised his thumb, pointing to himself, "Xue Xiaoguang from the Lower-class Star, am here to challenge you today."

Yan Qianyi was puzzled, "Do I know you?"

Xue Xiaoguang, casual and with a lopsided smile, though dark-skinned, had very white teeth.

"A small fry like me, you certainly don’t know. But I do know you, I’ve heard... you’ve got a strong backup," Xue Xiaoguang said sarcastically, "I, Xue Xiaoguang, can’t stand those who climb the ranks through connections, so today, I want to defeat you."

Yan Chuhua discreetly tugged at Yan Qianyi’s hem, "Qianyi, this Xue Xiaoguang is quite strong, we don’t need to bother with him. I heard he’s a cynic with a resentment towards the rich."

Not only did Xue Xiaoguang come from a Lower-class Star, but his family was also very poor, yet he was very diligent.

Each star had its own military academy, and it wasn’t easy to get from a Lower-class Star into the Capital Star’s Military Academy.

Xue Xiaoguang spat out his toothpick, lifting his chin, "What? Afraid to accept my challenge?"

"I’ll take it." Yun Mu suddenly stood in front of Yan Qianyi.

As the newly popular heartthrob of the Special Department, Yun Mu’s appearance immediately drew the attention of the girls.

When the girls looked at Yan Qianyi again, there was a hint of jealousy in their eyes.

Xue Xiaoguang scoffed, "Yun Mu, what’s it to you? Could it be that you also want to curry favor with her backup?"

Xue Xiaoguang and Yun Mu were classmates.

Although Yun Mu usually seemed unremarkable, Xue Xiaoguang knew that Yun Mu’s strength was anything but simple.

He wasn’t afraid of Yun Mu, it’s just that today he wanted to challenge Yan Qianyi.

People like him, born lowly, had to work much harder than others to enter the Federation Military Academy.

Why should Yan Qianyi, with only a Spiritual Power Value of 20, be able to enter the Federation Military Academy through connections?

He just couldn’t stand people like Yan Qianyi!

Yun Mu wasn’t angered by Xue Xiaoguang, he simply smiled lightly, "I, Yun Mu, don’t need to curry favor with anyone, I just can’t stand seeing a girl being bullied."

This boyfriend power caused the girls to scream wildly, and the boys watching the fun also started whistling.

At this moment, hardly anyone was watching the match on stage anymore; they had all crowded around to watch the drama.

Yan Qianyi tapped Yun Mu on the back, "Since it’s a challenge for me, of course I should accept it. Don’t steal my thunder."

Yun Mu turned back to her with surprise.

Are you crazy?

Xue Xiaoguang was one of the best among the Special Department freshmen.

Even if Yan Qianyi’s fighting skills were excellent, with that little spiritual power, what could she use to fight him?

Yan Chuhua also thought Yan Qianyi was crazy.

Having interacted with her for some time, she knew Qianyi was not one to admit defeat easily, but sometimes, one had to face reality.

Although Yan Qianyi was better at controlling spiritual power than other students.

But even being good at controlling one’s spiritual power, with just 20 points, there wasn’t much to control.

"Qianyi, now’s not the time to show off," Yan Chuhua worriedly said.

Yan Qianyi gave Chu Hua a ’don’t worry’ look, then stepped past Yun Mu, facing Xue Xiaoguang, "Xue Xiaoguang, right? I accept your challenge."

Xue Xiaoguang twisted his mouth into a smile, "You’ve got guts, I actually start to admire you."

He had thought that Yan Qianyi would always hide behind Yun Mu.

He despised women who relied on their looks and men.

Yan Qianyi responded coldly, "Don’t admire me."

At that moment, the Mechanical Department seniors on the stage had also finished their PK.

The students watching the fun on the side yelled: "Get on the stage and PK!"

"Get up on the stage! Get up on the stage!"

Xue Xiaoguang waved his hand, "Never mind, earning points like this isn’t honorable."

Competing on the stage was recorded in the points system.

Having him duel Yan Qianyi on the stage would be like getting something for free, right?

He wasn’t interested.

Yet Yan Qianyi said, "Dueling privately is against the school rules, get on the stage."

Xue Xiaoguang said, "Oh, you’re giving me points?"

"Yeah, consider it a welcome gift, let’s see if you can actually take it," Yan Qianyi smiled and headed first to the entrance of the stage.

Entering the stage, he scanned his personal information and logged into the points system.

Xue Xiaoguang followed him.

Yan Chuhua stamped her foot in frustration.

The talk of the day had been about Yan Ruyi tripping during last night’s performance.

Many thought that Yan Ruyi had tripped to catch the Commander’s attention on purpose.

Now that Qianyi was accepting Xue Xiaoguang’s challenge, if she lost face, wouldn’t that just switch the topic of campus discussions?

That would just hand Yan Ruyi an advantage!

She knew Qianyi was extraordinary, or else Mai Hunter wouldn’t like Qianyi so much.

But Qianyi’s potential was still being tapped, now wasn’t the time to be dueling others.

Yan Chuhua anxiously asked Yun Mu beside her, "Yun Mu, what’s Xue Xiaoguang’s Spiritual Power Value in your class?"

Yun Mu stared at Xue Xiaoguang’s figure and pondered, "Not sure, I’m not that close with him, but he’s always so arrogant. I figure it must be at least around fifty."

Yan Chuhua held her forehead, feeling overwhelmed.

"What’s his special ability?" Yan Chuhua asked again.

Yun Mu nodded towards the stage, "Speed."

Yan Chuhua turned her eyes towards the stage.

She saw Yan Qianyi standing in the middle of the stage, but Xue Xiaoguang was nowhere to be seen.

To be precise, Xue Xiaoguang was moving so fast, he had become a blur.

At that moment, he was arrogantly circling around Yan Qianyi, making himself impossible to track.

"Xue Xiaoguang!" Yan Chuhua yelled at the stage, "If you dare hurt Qianyi, I... I’ll kill you!"

Yan Chuhua’s voice had a bit of a childish tone.

Her ’I’ll kill you’ coming from her mouth made Yun Mu chuckle.

"What are you laughing at?" Yan Chuhua glared at Yun Mu, her worries consuming her.

Yun Mu watched the stage, unnoticed, his deep gray eyes suddenly lightened.

Then, he smiled, "Don’t worry, nothing will happen."

As Xue Xiaoguang unleashed his special ability, the students below shouted.

"Give up, Yan Qianyi!"

"With that speed, he can completely overwhelm you."

"It’s not shameful for a girl to give up."

"That’s right, you’ve got strong backing anyway."

Yan Qianyi closed her eyes, ignoring the jeering crowd, trying to mobilize her spiritual power.

Xue Xiaoguang’s speed was indeed very fast, he kept running circles around Yan Qianyi, stirring up gusts of wind, lifting her slightly curled long hair.

But he delayed in attacking, as if to mock her.

Xue Xiaoguang taunted, "Yan Qianyi, I’m going to make a move now."
