Wei Wei’s eyebrows rose. “His nephew?”
“It’s precisely that icy youngster who wears a mask all day pretending that he’s mature!”
Wei Wei finally understood how Third Prince totally offended Elder Huan, causing Elder Huan to gripe like this whenever he spoke.
In the past, when Wei Wei heard, she wasn’t bothered by it at all. Now that she’d prepared an agreement to get married, when she heard these words, she felt weird…
“That’s right, I’ve heard that you wanted to represent the Inferior Compound to compete?” Huan Ming Xiang stroked his beard and laughed. “That’s good, too. It’s about time to have them see your strength, which can also build your reputation prior to the martial qi competition.”
Wei Wei touched the bridge of her nose and smiled lightly. “The field I’m competing in isn’t martial qi.”
“Not martial qi?” Huan Ming Xuan was struck dumb. “Is it because that youngster Tusu Feng didn’t choose you? In a moment, I’ll go find him and talk some sense! How can this youngster believe in gossip, that’s really revolting!”
Wei Wei’s tone was level. “It wasn’t the principal who decided. It’s the three of us who chose each of the subjects.”
She really didn’t care much about it. Even if it was divination, which she didn’t know anything about, she still had Yuan Ming and Little White within the Celestial Boundary Space to help her. It’s just that if it was martial qi or armaments, the odds of winning were higher. Now that she thought about it, the three of them seemed to be a bit too random. They were like you choose one, I choose one, and just decided on the competition’s subject just like that…..
The main thing was, the principal indulged them too much, and said that as long as they agreed to participate, it’d be up to them to choose whatever they want.
Truthfully speaking, this was the first time Wei Wei encountered such an open-minded principal.
“You guys made the choice?” The more Huan Ming Xiang heard, the more he didn’t believe. “Then who chose martial qi?”
Wei Wei stooped to sweep a bit of ground and casually replied. “My desk-mate”.
“You even have a desk-mate?” Huan Ming Xuan revealed a shocked expression. “Haven’t you always been alone?”
The corners of Wei Wei’s mouth twitched. “But every time I attend class, there’s always a desk-mate, you know.”
Hearing this answer, Huan Ming Xuan’s still dissatisfied. “If you choose martial qi, you guys’ll win for sure. I can tell you that besides that Little Bald Head at the Superior Compound, it’s rare that anyone else at White Academy can beat you in a fight.”
“Little Bald Head…” Wei Wei’s fingers paused and she smiled lightly. “Seventh Prince is that strong?”
Huan Ming Xuan humphed twice. “Blame it on that icy fellow guiding him. A perfectly good little suckling baby was raised by him into a little tiger. Last time, the little tiger gave me some meat buns. Early in the morning, he stood outside hollering like thunder. It was so noisy I couldn’t even sleep!”
“It seems that Elder Huan likes Seventh Prince.” Wei Wei has spent a period of time with the old man, if he didn’t like someone, they could forget about finding him, not to mention having some opportunity to disturb him.
Huan Ming Xiang stroked his beard and smiled. He didn’t deny it. “I still feel that there’s something wrong with this arrangement. If you’re competing in martial qi, at least you guys could win a match. How strong are the other two, do you know?”
“During the competition, I’ll slowly find out. ” Wei Wei froze a little, then laughed lightly.
Huan Ming Xiang: …. That means she didn’t know!
“You don’t even know their strength and you guys already decided on the event you’re competing in?”
Huan Ming Xuan was a bit dizzy hearing this. When had White Academy’s biggest competition been looked down on like this. In the past, students from the Inferior Compound, in order to have a chance at winning, clearly gave it all they’ve got!
Wei Wei propped her forehead. Unexpectedly, being asked this by the old man left her speechless. Thinking about it carefully, it’s really like that…
