Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 366: Winning First Prize in the Interest Class
Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Winning First Prize in the Interest Class
Yun Yue turned her head and was stunned for a second, locking eyes with his dark, profound ones, feeling a sense of security that inspired trust and dependence.
Xiao Chen took out a black bank card from his pocket, "Here’s a bank card, it has no password."
Yun Yue seemed to be in a daze, her articulated fingers clutching a black bank card from Hongsheng Bank.
He must have seen the remark she left for Wu Yi, a hint of a smile twitched the corners of his lips, "No... I’ll keep it for you."
She was about to refuse, but then she changed her mind and accepted the bank card. Xiao Chen’s lips curved up in amusement and he said, "It will probably be another hour before it’s your turn, you can still rest for a while. I’ll call you when it’s time."
"No need." Yun Yue shook her head, sitting on the sofa playing on her phone, having not logged into the game for a long time. As soon as she logged in, she received many private messages, but she was used to not checking them unless they were from someone she knew.
Jay had heard from the brothers at Tu Mi Garden last night that she was really good. He deeply regretted not being able to participate in the competition this time and felt somewhat unwilling. Now seeing Yun Yue actually playing a game, he couldn’t help feeling helpless.
He eventually couldn’t resist walking over to ask, "Miss Yun, how much do you know about fencing? Or have you obtained any certificates?"
He didn’t know what he was expecting by asking, it was just to give himself some reassurance.
Yun Yue’s fingers nimbly scrolled across the screen. She looked up at him and, not wanting to shock him, smiled and said, "Oh, I have won some—does a first prize in a hobby class count?"
Jay: "..."
For a moment, his expression cracked, and he could only laugh meekly, "Then Miss Yun really is amazing."
He tried to comfort himself by thinking that a first prize in a hobby class was also an award, at least she knew something.
Yun Yue took in his expression with a faint smile and lowered her head to start playing the game again.
It was indeed a hobby class.
Seeing her continue the game so calmly, even carelessly slaughtering her opponents in the game, Jay couldn’t help but admire her composure.
One by one, the three competitors in the waiting room went onto their matches, all returning with grim faces to sit silently in their seats, with only the sound of Yun Yue’s indiscriminate killings audible through her headphones.
Half an hour later, Xiao Chen took off her headphones, his thin lips slightly parting, "It’s time to get ready."
"Okay," Yun Yue replied, voice to text, "I have to go offline for a bit, if we lose, come add me as a friend, and I’ll compensate you with a star."
Xiao Chen’s eyebrows raised, seemingly impressed by her sense of responsibility.
The pompous teammate was mocking their opponents when suddenly a message popped up announcing that a teammate had gone AFK, leaving them all dumbfounded.
After the loss, they all happily ran to add Yun Yue as a friend.
The three matches were all disappointing, and Xiao Dian looked rather grim-faced, as people had begun to mock Tu Mi Garden.
Especially the people from the Underground Alliance and the Martin family, their taunts still ringing in their ears, making them furious.
Yun Yue was the last competitor slated to perform, planning to leave quickly after her match to avoid further embarrassment.
Even he was already mentally braced for the mockery at the scene.
After Yun Yue changed into her clothes, Xiao Chen personally fitted her with her fencing helmet, his impenetrable, dark eyes unable to be read, his lips gently parting, "Be careful."
"Okay."
Beneath the mask, Yun Yue’s face couldn’t be seen clearly, but her eyes held a ferocious gleam, her brows were nine parts cold and one part rogue.
Xiao Chen’s arrival at the competition venue brought silence to those who had just been mocking, and though they noticed Yun Yue’s figure and guessed she was a woman, they didn’t dare to discuss loudly, only whispering among themselves.
"Has Tu Mi Garden run out of competitors to send a woman to compete? Looks like they don’t stand a chance of getting into the top ten this time."
"Only Jay from Tu Mi Garden is impressive. With Jay injured, the outcome is clear. Just wait, there’s a good show coming."
Rarely do they get to watch such a spectacle—they wouldn’t miss it for the world.
Yun Yue’s opponent was none other than Daniel, and one could only say that her luck was truly rotten. No one knew what kind of score she would lose by.
Just hopefully not 15:0—that would be utterly humiliating.
Qiu Jun had also arrived at the competition site. Standing across from him, when he saw Xiao Chen, he instinctively looked to his side but didn’t catch sight of her.
Had she not come?
Qiu Jun met Xiao Chen’s piercing, icy gaze with a mocking curve of his lip.
On the field, both competitors were ready, just waiting for the judge’s signal.
Yun Yue got into position, eyeing Daniel across from her.
Daniel was the Underground Alliance’s strongest fencer; his skills were not to be underestimated.
The fact that Jay could exchange blows with Daniel suggested that his strengths were also commendable, it was just a shame he had been underhandedly dealt with.
But...
She reined in her casual expression, lifting her eyelids and swiftly dodging Daniel’s attack.
The audience below watched in surprise as she actually managed to dodge.
"Who knew this woman had some skill, she actually dodged that."
"Point scored! The fencer Yue Yun actually scored a point! What exactly happened, let’s check out the live replay."
There were cameras on site; what had just happened was too fast for them to see how Yue Yun had made her move, they only knew she had scored a point.
The crowd immediately erupted into uproar, eyes glued incredulously to the big screen.
The replay slowed down to half speed, and then they could clearly see that as she dodged, she lunged forward and her blade struck Daniel’s abdomen with precision.
Daniel stood stunned for three seconds, completely unprepared for how quickly she had scored a point.
A familiar feeling spread from the bottom of his heart as he narrowed his eyes, as if trying to see through her.
The commentator’s excited voice echoed throughout the entire competition venue.
Initially expected to be a one-sided match, Yue Yun had scored a point right out of the gate, astonishing everyone.
Bets had been set up at the venue, visible on a display screen.
Originally, Yue Yun wasn’t favored at all and nobody had dared to bet on her. However, just because she had pulled off that move, someone immediately placed a bet on her, even if it was a small amount, it still indicated a change in the spectators’ sentiments.
The competitors from Tu Mi Garden had already given up hope for this match, but as they watched the live broadcast from the rest room, their surprise and excitement at that point restored their confidence, and they watched the screen intently with high hopes.
"Jay, how confident would you have been about dodging that thrust?" someone curiously asked him.
Jay had crossed swords with Daniel most frequently and was surely well-acquainted with his technique.
Jay, too, was shocked by that move and after a moment of daze, he honestly said, "I had no confidence. I would have definitely been hit by that thrust."
Not only would he have lost a point, but he wouldn’t have scored one either.
"No way, if even you couldn’t dodge it, then how did Miss Yun manage, and even score a point?"
After hearing his words, they all showed expressions of shock—it was just too incredible.
Jay pressed his lips tightly together, saying nothing, his gaze fixed on the screen without moving, afraid to miss any of the exciting moments. His uninjured left hand was tightly clutching his pants, so tense that he could hear his own heartbeat.
Of course, he couldn’t have dodged it, but Lisa surely could have, though she might not necessarily have scored; yet Miss Yun not only dodged but also scored a point.
Was she really just someone who had taken hobby classes, winning first prize in a hobby class competition?!
