The Brilliant Fighting Master

But that wasn’t the cause. People were in distress because another influential person had appeared in the air.

It turned out to be a woman, a pretty one. She won the cheers of the men around immediately.

“Yue Lansheng, one of the Four Beauties of the Sacred Zone,” Ying Wushuang introduced her to Jiang Chen when seeing the confusion on his face.

“I see.”

Not until then did Jiang Chen understand the situation, because he had sensed she was far less powerful than Li Nanxing or Su Xing, but the crowd’s reaction almost made him think she was the top of the Dragon Rise List.

Beauties are always eye-catching.

It occurred to Jiang Chen that in the Sacred Zone of 500 years ago, they had had flattering titles such as peri and goddess for women, too.

In this era, they had the Four Beauties. Jiang Chen kept sighing emotionally.

“Why? Don’t you think she’s pretty?” Ying Wushuang asked, wittingly or unwittingly.

Jiang Chen glanced at the woman more carefully and shook his head. He said, “Not my type. I suppose she has some other things that got her added to the Four Beauties.”

The understanding of beauty was actually an understanding of ugliness. It was difficult to say one was more beautiful than another when their beauty had achieved a certain level.

In such cases, people judged their temperaments, such as whether they were noble, elegant, or gentle.

Yue Lansheng behaved like she was standing high above the masses, as proud as a peacock. Jiang Chen didn’t like this type of women.

It wasn’t that he didn’t like noble women, but that he could see she was intentionally maintaining such nobleness.

In addition, he was right. The reason she was included in the Four Beauties was her high level of creation of nature and martial arts techniques and her marvelous background.

“How shameless you are. With your appearance, you think you have the right to say whether you like her or not?”

To his surprise, an admirer of Yue Lansheng overheard him and ranted and raved at him right away.

It was an average-looking girl with freckles who was staring at Jiang Chen in anger.

She strove to become a woman like Yue Lansheng. Of course she couldn’t accept Jiang Chen’s comment.

“You have the right to like her. I have the right to dislike her.” Jiang Chen glanced at her, unwilling to argue.

But that girl walked over with arms flailing. She said, “No, you don’t have the right. Apprentice Sister Yue Lansheng won’t even spare you a look. Your comment is worthless.”

“So why do you care so much?” Jiang Chen found it funny.

The girl was stunned into silence. She blushed immediately and stomped on the ground. She said, “I can’t allow ignorant people to be cocky.”

It didn’t make sense at all. Jiang Chen didn’t bother to answer her.

However, because of this girl, others started to pay attention to them, too. When they learned what this was about, they started to look at Jiang Chen in an unkind way.

“Who is this guy?”

“Don’t know. I’ve never seen him. Couldn’t be anyone famous.”

“So where did he get the nerve to comment on Yue Lansheng? He just wants the attention.”

The others were all on the girl’s side.

The girl, who had almost lost the quarrel, felt confident again. She looked up at Jiang Chen, as if she wouldn’t let him go if he didn’t apologize.

“Are you gonna prevent another’s freedom of expression?”

Ying Wushuang looked over in fury. Holding the disciple token of the Hero Palace in hand, she shouted, “How great you must be!”

“The Hero Palace?”

The crowd showed some restraint. The girl was also at a loss.

“Do you mean to shut people up with this damn token? The Hero Palace is greater,” a harsh voice suddenly said.

People looked over and scattered right away, staying as far away as they could.

It wasn’t because that man was ugly or smelled bad, but because he was in a black robe with the front and sleeves embroidered with golden clouds.

It meant he was from the Evil Cloud Palace!

“Leng Chuixue, ranked seventh on the Slay Demon List and sixty-eighth on the Dragon Rise List,” someone recognized him.

Leng Chuixue was a man with red lips and white teeth. There was red eyeshadow at the corner of his eyes, as if he had painted them with blood.

The crowd realized the Evil Cloud Palace was challenging the Hero Palace! They were looking forward to the result.

“Justice naturally inhabits a man’s heart. Words are unnecessary.” Ying Wushuang didn’t want to make a scene. She wanted to leave with Jiang Chen.

“Miss Yue! There are people doubting your beauty down here. They don’t think you’re worthy of the name of one of the Four Beauties.”

Leng Chuixue didn’t stop them, but he raised his head and shouted loudly. Everyone present heard him.

Undoubtedly, everyone was piqued with the same curiosity. They looked over to see who would be so haughty.

Even Yue Lansheng looked down from the air. She glanced at Jiang Chen, but didn’t speak, yet many people were acting very aggressive, intending to impress Yue Lansheng.

“In your line of thinking, should I kneel down before a person you like? Can’t I tell my friend what I think?” Jiang Chen confronted the numerous gazes naturally. His words made sense.

A small part of the crowd calmed down. After all, it was only hearsay, and they hadn’t heard what Jiang Chen had actually said.

“Isn’t it impolite to make sarcastic comments when others are happy to see their idol?” Leng Chuixue refuted right away. He was aiming at Jiang Chen on purpose.

“Don’t you have ears?” Jiang Chen answered him with a question. Others were shocked. He was facing someone ranked on the evil Slay Demon List. Wasn’t he afraid of danger?

“Most people here can’t repeat what I said,” continued Jiang Chen.

“Huh, you’ve made sure of nothing, either. You don’t get the right to comment on things here. Who do you think you are?” The girl said after a period of silence.

“Yeah, you can only stand on the ground. Who do you think you are?”

They went back to the start again and kept attacking Jiang Chen’s low social status.

“You have to be as great as someone to comment on them. It doesn’t make sense,” Jiang Chen said sarcastically.

“What do you think? You think anyone is allowed to talk nonsense here?” the girl satirized him.

Jiang Chen heard a voice through holy awareness. “My young brother, you’d better make an apology. It doesn’t matter to them whether it makes sense or not. Some of them are kicking up a fuss, and others are trying to impress Yue Lansheng.”

So there were still reasonable people.

Jiang Chen frowned. Glancing at the people around who expected to see him bring shame upon himself, he showed a cold smile.

“So, I said it. What are you going to do with me?” Jiang Chen didn’t apologize. He challenged them aggressively instead.

“Damn it. Who does he think he is?!”

“He needs to be taught a lesson! He has to be!”

The crowd were full of anger. They were going to give him hell.

“Class leader, just ignore them. Come up,” a beautiful voice said from the air.

The crowd looked up in fury to see who was so arrogant that she would tell Jiang Chen to ignore them.

But they froze when they looked up. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

It was another one of the Four Beauties, and the most famous one, Yin Shuang!

She was an extremely elegant woman. Each smile of hers was full of charm.
