As soon as Yang Xubai said these words, a series of surprised and uncertain eyes immediately turned to me.
"Did I hear you correctly? He is going to participate in a martial arts competition to find a bride?"
"Isn't this a game played by the powerful in various countries?"
"Hiss... I didn't expect Ye Yan to be quite ambitious."
The people present here are all student representatives from freshmen to seniors, and there are almost hundreds of them. However, they do not have the same information channels as Yang Xubai. Therefore, when they first heard that Yang Xubai broke such a shocking secret, they immediately saw it.
The way they look at me is different.
Some were skeptical, some were disdainful, and some were surprised... Obviously, for them, it was beyond their expectations that I had the courage to participate in the contest to recruit a bride.
Li Ze and others were also stunned for a moment. Although they were all powerful children of the top families in the Great Shun Kingdom, they really didn't know about this.
Facing Yang Xubai's ridicule, I remained calm and teased: "What's wrong, Old Yang? You don't have the ability to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit a bride, so you start to attack me personally?"
Yang Xubai was furious and said: "I am just self-aware. Unlike you, a toad wants to eat swan meat and can't see the reality at all. How can you get your hands on the saint?"
"Ha, I think you can't eat the grapes, so just say the grapes are sour. You don't even have the luck to try. You really are an incompetent person." I smiled coldly, my tone full of sarcasm.
My trash talk and taunting made Yang Xubai very angry, and his face turned red. He yelled: "Boy, don't be so proud, you will feel better later."
"I'll wait." I said with a smile.
At this time, Yao Shijie, who was not far away, came out and said to us with a cold face: "What are you doing? The military parade is about to happen. Why are you still making such a fuss?"
"Nothing." I shrugged.
Yao Shijie glanced at me, his tone was a bit warning, and he reminded: "Ye Yan, the National Day Ceremony is a grand event of our great Shun Kingdom. Don't cause trouble on such an occasion!"
"I understand, don't worry, everything I do is in compliance." I smiled lightly.
"It's best like this." Yao Shijie snorted coldly, then turned around and walked into the queue of sophomores. He was also listed as an outstanding student representative this time.
After the conflict subsided, the eyes of the surrounding people were still focused on me, as if I had done some shocking feat, causing them to whisper.
"With Ye Yan's strength, is he worthy enough to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit a bride?"
"It doesn't matter. Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, I respect him as a man. At least he dares to do it."
"Who says otherwise? If Ye Yan can use his 'beautiful man trick' and successfully win the favor of the saint, then he will really leap over the dragon's gate."
"If this path is successful, he will have to struggle for at least thirty years!"
"Hmph, what's the use of the beauty trap? To recruit a bride through martial arts competition is all about strength!"
…
In the face of everyone's comments, I didn't pay any attention to them. My ears directly blocked their comments. How could outsiders like them know the hidden secrets?
If I said that I am the husband of a saint, their jaws would probably drop in shock.
Soon, the military parade began. This was a great opportunity to demonstrate the strength of a great country. Countless strong men formed a square formation and stepped onto the competition stage.
The first to appear were our freshmen.
Twenty-six three-star powerhouses walked onto the stage in unison, and at the same time, there were gasps from the audience.
"These three-star experts are actually the freshmen of this class?"
"Great Shun Kingdom is doing well this year. It's only the first semester of freshman year, and the four schools have already graduated twenty-six three-star freshmen. It is indeed a superpower."
"The leading girl is already in the mid-three-star stage. What a terrifying talent this is. Great Shun Kingdom has really found a treasure!"
What surprised everyone mainly focused on two aspects.
First, there are indeed many three-star strong men among the new students of Great Shun Kingdom. Even if this number is placed in the entire five districts, it is definitely among the best.
The second, and most important point, is probably the existence of Ye Yuyou.
Among the freshmen in the entire fifth district, there is no mid-three-star powerhouse who breaks through faster than Ye Yuyou. She is the well-deserved number one among the freshmen!
Listening to the continuous praises coming from around, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Ruochen's mouth. After all, Ye Yuyou was a talent from her East School, and most of the twenty-six three-star experts were from the East School.
So at the moment, the one with the brightest face is probably Zhou Ruochen.
A smile appeared on the corner of Scala's mouth. With so many young talents coming out of his country, he felt equally honored. He kept nodding his head and said with satisfaction: "Yes, yes, this new class of freshmen is indeed amazing.
This is thanks to the principals’ good education.”
"Where, where."
The principals of the three schools in the southwest and north all waved their hands with some blushes, because the freshmen of their three schools this year are not outstanding. On average, only three to four freshmen from each school have reached three stars, so they cannot afford it.
These four words are 'Education is good'.
The one that really shines is the East School, because the East School alone has produced fourteen three-star freshmen, which is more than the three schools combined!
The three principals really couldn't figure out what kind of bad luck East School, which had always been at the bottom, had this year to have so many awesome freshmen come out of the school in one fell swoop.
On the competition stage, I looked at the voices of admiration all around me, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of my mouth. This was the effect I wanted.
Why did I agree to attend the parade?
On the one hand, it was to give the school some face, and on the other hand, it was also because I really needed such an opportunity to make a good appearance in front of all nations.
For me, the more people who know me, the easier it is to achieve my goals.
I want everyone to know that I am a freshman at the Holy Academy, so that it will be difficult for Scala to use some dirty tricks on me. After all... the identity of the Holy Academy can be said to be the ultimate protective shield. Don't
Speaking of Scala, even a strong person like Zhou Xinyan would find it difficult to do something excessive to me without any reason.
Therefore, by doing this, I am actually taking advantage of Wan Guo's hand to reduce my risk of getting married through martial arts competitions. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Qi Ye saw me, and he quietly sent a message to Skara: "Father, Ye Yan has signed up for the martial arts competition to find a bride, and seems to be aiming to win the championship."
"How can he have those two moves?" Skala's tone was full of disdain. In his opinion, I am a scumbag who is not even at the peak level and has no competitiveness at all.
Skala glanced at Zhou Ruochen from the corner of her eye and said: "You can handle this kind of trivial matter by yourself. Just remember not to be too harsh. Just defeat him. This will save some face for the school. After all, this kid can be regarded as the leader of this class."
If something goes wrong, it’s hard for us to deal with it, so Zhou Ruochen still has to face it.”
