Soon, many people surged in that direction. The two were quickly surrounded, like stars encircling the moon.
At that moment, Fang Yu's gaze swept past the crowd and landed on the silver-haired girl with a beauty that could eclipse the moon and shame flowers.
"Mu Ningxue."
"Meeting again, she's grown even more stunning," Fang Yu murmured to himself.
"Huh? That guy from Ancient Capital Academy, the one who trained at the Potala Palace holy land is here too?" someone exclaimed, causing quite a stir.
It was a young man with a bright smile, accompanied by a beautiful woman, drinking and enjoying himself without a care in the world.
"I heard the monks at the Potala Palace are all ascetics, focused on purity and restraint. But this guy's a complete oddball, living wildly, never without women," someone whispered.
Yet no one dared to underestimate him. His name was Shao Bai, immensely powerful—invincible among his peers at Ancient Capital Academy.
At that moment, a woman's sharp voice rang out, filled with anger: "Shao Bai, you you've truly disappointed me. I'm breaking off our engagement!"
Everyone turned to look. It was a very beautiful woman, but her face was flushed with anger. Seeing him behave so shamelessly, flirting openly with another woman, she simply couldn't endure it.
"Beauty, are you calling me? Come, have a drink?" Shao Bai laughed drunkenly and waved toward her, which made her tremble with rage.
The crowd was stunned. This guy was even more lustful and unrestrained than the rumors said. His fiancée was the cherished daughter of a prestigious Ancient Capital clan, yet he behaved so disgracefully.
"You're outrageous!" the woman shouted angrily and attacked without hesitation.
Boom!
But as she made her move, Shao Bai activated a magic tool. A circular disk appeared before him, radiating dazzling brilliance.
The woman was blasted back, nearly falling into the lake.
"Come, beauty, let's keep drinking." Shao Bai wrapped an arm around another woman's waist and drank with her intimately.
"You…" His fiancée turned and left in fury.
"What a playboy," Fang Yu muttered. He hadn't been here long, yet he had already encountered quite a few eccentric characters.
"Jealous?" someone whispered into his ear, blowing a fragrant breath.
Fang Yu turned toward the voice and saw a very beautiful woman in a blue dress.
Her legs were long, her waist slender like a willow branch, her neck graceful like a swan's. Her skin was as fair as jade, and her charming face carried a seductive allure, with lively, sparkling eyes.
He asked, "And you are?"
"Mu Tingying. Nice to meet you," the woman said with a smile.
Fang Yu was surprised.
Her?
In the original story, she was someone who constantly clashed with Mu Ningxue, extremely incompatible.
She carried the arrogance of a clan descendant, somewhat spoiled and difficult to get along with.
Judging by the situation, for some reason she had approached him and seemed interested.
"After the exchange, do you have time to meet?" Mu Tingying asked.
"For what?"
"Something important."
"I'll think about it."
"Alright, I won't disturb you then." Mu Tingying left her contact information and turned to leave.
Fang Yu fell into thought.
Most likely another recruitment attempt.
It seemed that after the previous exchange competition with Imperial Capital Academy, more and more people had begun to notice him.
Honestly, he didn't want to deal with her.
Although she was highly attractive to men, she also carried a deadly kind of danger.
The Mu Clan was not a place to be taken lightly.
"Who was that talking to Mu Tingying?"
"That was Fang Yu."
"The one who took five consecutive victories in the exchange between Pearl Academy and Imperial Capital Academy."
Several young people from Imperial Capital Academy cast curious glances. Fang Yu's five victories had shaken the Imperial Capital, making him widely recognized.
As the conversation turned to him, Fang Yu remained indifferent and ignored it.
He walked through the crowd, listening quietly, saying nothing.
Before he knew it, he arrived by the lakeside and headed toward the food area. There were people grilling, with all kinds of delicacies available, along with fine wines releasing intoxicating aromas.
"This kind of gathering isn't bad."
Soon, he focused entirely on eating.
Before long, Qin Shuo approached with a smile on his face.
"You're here!" Fang Yu greeted him with a grin.
"Where are the others?" Qin Shuo asked.
"Zhang Hao came, but who knows where he ran off to. Haven't seen the others yet," Fang Yu replied.
"No one else is here?"
Qin Shuo murmured, "I heard the competition on White Crocodile Island is going to be intense. Besides the four academies, for some reason the Hunter's Union also got wind of it. There will probably be quite a few people heading there to make a fortune."
"There's such a thing?" Fang Yu's heart tightened. It seemed the competition pressure had increased, and the situation was full of uncertainty.
"None of those people are simple. If it turns into mutual competition, the pressure this time will increase significantly," Qin Shuo said seriously.
"The academy's people aren't pushovers either," Fang Yu replied.
"True. Why think so much? When soldiers come, we block them; when water comes, we dam it!"
After that, having eaten their fill, and with nothing else to do, Fang Yu grabbed a fishing rod provided by Imperial Capital Academy and went to the lakeside to fish.
The lake wasn't small, with plenty of fish stocked in it. There were also some water birds resting by the shore, occasionally flapping their wings and flying up.
Fang Yu found a good spot and held the fishing rod in one hand.
Qin Shuo was immediately speechless upon seeing this. Did he even know how to fish? He was using the fishing rod like a long staff, forcefully striking at the fish in the water, splashing water everywhere.
"You're in for a treat, I just caught a ten-pound big black fish!" Fang Yu said.
Qin Shuo rolled his eyes. This guy held the rod backwards and, using his agility, directly stabbed a large fish at the shore with the end.
A complete disgrace to the art of fishing.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort came from nearby. Someone was deliberately approaching.
Hearing it, Fang Yu sighed. He had already noticed the person coming, most likely with ill intent.
"Finally found you!"
An indignant voice sounded. It was Lu Qing and the thin man who had been beaten by Zhang Hao earlier, along with an unfamiliar companion.
"Something you need?"
Fang Yu suddenly stood up and looked at Lu Qing, a teasing smirk at the corner of his lips. "Looking to get beaten again?"
"That's not certain who'll be beating whom!"
"Yu Chi."
Lu Qing stepped back, letting the unfamiliar man take action.
"So you're Fang Yu?"
Yu Chi stared at Fang Yu, observing him carefully. Yet he couldn't sense any aura. Fang Yu stood there calmly, like an empty valley, plain and natural.
"What about it?" Fang Yu replied calmly.
"Care for a spar?" Yu Chi said coldly.
"Are you sick? Why should I spar with you?" Fang Yu replied bluntly, showing no courtesy at all.
"You…"
Yu Chi was angered.
"A piece of Footwear Magic Equipment, if you win, it's yours!"
Behind him, Lu Qing spoke coldly.
He wanted to use Yu Chi's strength to deal with this hateful Fang Yu. He had no choice but to offer something tempting, otherwise this person wouldn't agree, and he wouldn't be able to vent his anger.
"Alright, now that's more like it," Fang Yu replied with a smile.
