This single announcement instantly ignited the passion of every trainee.
The terrifying South God, what exact method had Ye Xingxuan used to make him bleed?
She obtained the mandarin duck hotpot voucher just like that?
So envious.
Compared to fighting those two black bears or becoming a human cannonball, making South God bleed seemed somewhat easier.
He Jia, who had nearly died from the fall, scrambled out of the bushes.
She stared at the message on her bracelet, utterly stunned. Big Sister Xingxuan had really succeeded?
How on earth had she…
Just find her and ask.
He Jia quickly located Ye Xingxuan’s position via the bracelet and hurried after her.
Ye Xingxuan was now skipping through the jungle, wearing a fresh outfit and looking extremely cheerful.
He Jia rushed up, eyes full of admiration. “Big Sister Xingxuan, you really made South God bleed?”
Ye Xingxuan’s pretty face beamed with pride. “Of course. Could it be fake? Impressive, right?”
He Jia nodded eagerly. “Impressive, impressive. How exactly did you do it?”
Ye Xingxuan blushed, glanced around to confirm they were alone. “I’ll tell you, but you mustn’t tell anyone. It’s a secret.”
He Jia looked fascinated. “Don’t worry. Tight-lipped Little Jia, that’s me.”
Ye Xingxuan leaned close to her ear. “Gurgle gurgle gurgle~ gurgle. Got it?”
He Jia’s eyes widened, she covered her mouth, cheeks flushed. “That… that works? Wow, bold.”
Ye Xingxuan: (⑉•ก•⑉) Shh~
He Jia’s big eyes spun rapidly. If that was the way, then couldn’t she do it too?
Just a small sacrifice. Nothing lost.
And South God was so handsome, far more than Xiang Zu. Plus, she could get the hotpot voucher.
No matter how she thought about it, she wouldn’t lose.
“Big Sister Xingxuan, I’ve got something urgent. I’ll go first.”
She dashed off, heading straight in the direction Jiangnan had left.
Ye Xingxuan scratched her head, puzzled. What was so urgent?
…
At that moment, Jiangnan was riding Little Dimple high in the sky. Every time he closed his eyes, the scene from the cave replayed.
“Sigh. Damn it. Why can’t my perfect memory work when I’m studying?”
He wiped the blood from his face and shook his head vigorously.
Don’t think about it. Don’t think about it.
Just then, a delicate shout rose from below.
“South God. Dare you come down and fight me? I challenge you.”
He Jia stood in front of a mountain cave in her beige trench coat, pretty face full of fighting spirit.
Jiangnan blinked, astonished.
Someone still dared to challenge him after all that?
He swung his halberd. “Very good. I admire your courage.”
He teleported down.
Seeing him approach, He Jia quickly ran into the cave.
Jiangnan entered carrying his halberd, raised an eyebrow. “Just you?”
He Jia looked nervous. “I’m enough on my own.”
Jiangnan surveyed the cave. “Why choose a cave as the battlefield? Clever. The narrow space restricts my halberd’s range. Good thinking.”
“Let’s begin.”
He levelled the halberd at her.
He Jia swallowed hard, tense, then closed her eyes and abruptly flung open her coat.
(๐˃̶﹏˂̶๐) Ah~
Jiangnan: Σヽ(ﾟﾛﾟ;)ﾉ
His body froze. The halberd clanged to the ground.
Hey, hey, hey. Is this your idea of a challenge?
Who could withstand that?
You can’t blame me. You started it.
No, the coat started it.
He Jia cautiously opened one eye to peek at him.
(๐˃̶﹏❛๐)
Jiangnan: (⑉ಠཀಠ⑉) Pwah~
Two powerful streams of blood gushed from his nostrils.
You’re cheating. That’s not fair.
“Such a fierce challenge. I’m out.”
He bolted from the cave, wiped his nosebleed, face filled with horror.
She cleverly exploited the rules and breached my defences.
Impressive tactic.
He Jia exhaled in relief, her pretty face glowing with excitement.
(ˊo̴̶̷̤ㅂo̴̶̷̤ˋ)و✧ Yay~
Success. I really do have talent.
South God isn’t invincible after all.
Voucher secured. No loss, no loss.
The trainees watching the stream were baffled.
“Eh? South God’s bleeding again. Even more than with Ye Xingxuan.”
“What did He Jia do? Hiss. Is He Jia that strong too?”
“Why do I feel something’s off?”
Xing Da was thrilled, not thinking deeply. Even the mighty Jiangnan could be defeated.
“Haha. Excellent, excellent. This is the momentum we need. Send the announcement quickly.”
Soon every trainee received news that He Jia had made Jiangnan bleed.
They stared in shock. No way?
What was happening? South God had bled twice in such a short time?
Not only Ye Xingxuan, but He Jia too?
There must be some secret method.
Ye Xingxuan was stunned. Jiajia wouldn’t have…
In a small grove, three girls surrounded He Jia with admiring eyes.
“Big Sister Jiajia, just tell us. We swear we won’t tell anyone.”
Tight-lipped Little Jia looked serious. “I’ll tell you, but you mustn’t spread it. I trust you.”
The girls nodded vigorously.
He Jia said mysteriously, “Gurgle gurgle~ got it?”
Their eyes sparkled. “Understood. We’ll go try it right now.”
Jiangnan wiped his nosebleed, deeply shaken.
Little Dimple looked puzzled. “Master~ have you eaten too much little ginseng? You’ve had two nosebleeds already.”
Jiangnan’s expression stiffened. “Ah ha~ ah haha~ you really understand me.”
Just then, several delicate shouts rose from below.
“South God. I challenge you.”
“Yes, yes. We’ll show you how strong we are.”
“Come over quickly and give us guidance.”
Three girls stood at a cave entrance, waving confidently at Jiangnan.
Jiangnan: (٥･᷄‸･᷅)
He shook his head firmly.
They definitely wanted to lure him into the cave for a special challenge.
He was, after all, a vigorous young man. Who were they looking down on?
“No way. Not going.”
Seeing he wouldn’t bite, the three called out. “You’re our instructor. How can you refuse our challenges?”
“Exactly. You have to fulfil your duties properly.”
“Giggle giggle~ you’re not scared, are you?”
Jiangnan stroked his chin.
She was right. He was the instructor. He couldn’t avoid battle.
He was only doing his duty. Definitely not curious about how strong they were.
Three minutes later, inside the cave.
Jiangnan: (๐≖～≖)
The three stared at him in shock.
“No way. You’re holding out against this?”
“Hurry up and bleed. Whether we get the hotpot voucher depends on this.”
“Is this not fierce enough?”
Jiangnan pouted. “Hmph. As a southern man, having fallen in the same spot twice, how could I fall a third time?”
Just for hotpot, did they have to go this far?
The three exchanged glances, faces resolute.
Next moment, all three beastified.
Pointy ears sprouted, fluffy tails appeared.
They placed soft paw pads beside their cheeks, tilted their heads and blinked at Jiangnan.
ฅ(⑉˃᷄ﻌ˂᷅⑉)ฅ~ Meow woof baa?
Jiangnan: ∑(ರ口ರ๐)
Two nosebleeds sprayed uncontrollably once more.
Beast… beast-ear girls?
Niiice!!!
Who could resist that?
They really were impressive. Jiangnan rushed out of the cave wiping blood, face flushed.
No good. He couldn’t stay any longer.
Jiangnan bled again. The three beast-ear girls who felt they had profited exploded with excitement.
The little secret of how to make South God bleed spread rapidly.
Three hours later, Jiangnan lay weakly on Little Dimple’s back.
(›´～`‹)
In those three hours, Jiangnan had witnessed countless grand spectacles and vast landscapes.
It turned out a southern man could not only fall in the same spot three times, but four, five times too.
The live-stream chat fell silent.
“I think I’ve just realised something.”
“Could someone let me share South God’s suffering? I want to be hurt too.”
“How dare they~”
