Sword Among Us

Chapter 181 - In Operation



On one afternoon, the students who were quite famous in the university appeared one after another in a small shop near the University of South China. Perhaps some people would be unable to say their real names, but they knew one another’s in-game names in World of Martial Arts very well.

NotaRascal and Puffy God showed up together. They greeted a few familiar faces outside the shop before they asked the shop owner for a room on the first floor. Then, they walked upstairs shoulder to shoulder.

Soon, Tea Words and Butt Shaker walked into the shop while chuckling and in high spirits. They ran into One Circle at the entrance, and they went upstairs together.

“Bro, you should cut down on your weight now. Look, you’re fatter again.”

One Circle followed behind them with a gloomy look, not saying anything.

Less than half a minute later, Phoenix Dances, Glutinous Rice, Young Yu Yan, and the three creators of South China Martial Arts Ranking Board entered the clean and neat shop under countless gazes of their friends!

The huge event made all people begin guessing whether Beautiful Robes Faction would organize a major operation soon.

After all, Phoenix Dances was now the faction master, and the other people were either the vice faction masters or hall masters. The Three Lonely Wolves, who had swiftly entered everyone’s eyes, were also the three leaders of South China Martial Arts Ranking Board. Countless University of South China students who had gathered in the shop began to become slightly excited. They believed that something major was about to happen.

Or else, why would the Three Lonely Wolves, who were very popular in the University of South China right now, also appear at such an event?!

“Oh, is everyone here? Sorry about being late!”

When he walked into the room on the first floor of the shop, Qi Ci looked around. His gaze stopped on the three beauties before him, and he chuckled.

It had to be said that being able to sit with three great beauties made all the boys in the room a little excited, and their emotions surged.

“Hello, our three leaders. I’m sorry for being unable to receive all of you at the door!”

“Waiter, give us tea! Haha!”

NotaRascal and Puffy God slapped the table and made a ruckus.

After the previous martial arts tournament, the two of them changed their attitude toward South China Martial Arts Ranking Board and the Three Lonely Wolves. They were no longer averse to them, and when they met in the campus, they would occasionally talk about things that boys would say to each other when they were close.

“Ah, get lost.”

Qi Ci regarded the ruckus of the duo with disdain, and the three of them sat down while the group laughed.

Chen Fan liked the atmosphere. He looked around and asked, “Haha! Who else isn’t here yet?”

“Oh, we’re just missing Rampaging Dragon. He seems to have contacted two new people. I heard that they have already cleared their master’s high-tier martial art quest. I think they have some potential for development, so I wanted to use this chance to have them get to know all of you.”

“Oh.”

The group raised their eyebrows.

Even though there were less than one million people in Blessed Realm, not many of them had cleared the high-tier martial art quest given by their masters and obtained high-tier martial arts. Those who did had quite decent abilities in the game and could not be underestimated.

“Boy or girl?”

“One boy and one girl.”

“The boy is in the Business Department, and his in-game name is Bloody Flying Dragon. The girl is in the Computer Engineering Department. You might know her. She’s Xu Yao.”

“Oh, the Great Beauty of the disciplinary committee!”

The group of wolves was very excited for a time.

They already had three gorgeous beauties with them, but men were always insatiably greedy. When they heard that a beauty was about to join them, their emotions surged, and they nearly opened the door and looked out to invite their guests in.

When the three beauties saw all the boys except Tea Words show their true colors, they put on disdainful expressions.

“Sister Phoenix Dances, how do you think Happy will react? Will he be like them or like our course rep?” Glutinous Rice asked softly.

When Tea Words heard that he had become a model character, his expression into one that said he did not know whether he should laugh or cry.

“Do you even need to ask?”

“Our beauty Phoenix Dances has already shown that she’s willing to give Happy a chance to date her, but he still refuses to show up. From this, we can tell that he isn’t the perverted type.”

“Perverted? What?”

When the wolves on the table heard this, they tensed up, and they quickly returned to normal. They all sat up straight and appeared to be gentlemen.

The girls rolled their eyes.

Glutinous Rice and Phoenix Dances ignored their Academy Award winning colleagues. Glutinous Rice remembered her first fight against Happy in the game and how she had been sent off the stage without any mercy the moment they met. In her heart, she believed that Tea Words’ words were not false.

Xu Xin smiled while sitting on the side without saying anything. She only watched Phoenix Dances and Glutinous Rice’s side profiles while seeing two pictures in her mind.

The first picture was of a boy with a slightly red face who looked like a nerd handing her an umbrella, and the other was of a swordsman. He was full of energy and fought his way into the midst of around one hundred players like a God of War with fluttering blue robes. He moved with ease and in a relaxed manner. His gaze was firm, and he killed with great resolution!

The great disparity made her a little uncertain.

Chen Kaixin had changed greatly during the time the rumors about him had circulated. Xu Xin could not really tell whether he would confess to her with a red face just like two months ago.

Perhaps Chen Kaixin had already changed.

While she thought about it, the door was opened from the outside.

“Sorry for being late.”

A boy with a built frame came in with a smile. While he apologized, he gestured at the two people behind him. “Come on in, Flying Dragon, Great Beauty Xu.”

That boy was Rampaging Dragon.

He moved aside, and the first to enter was a gorgeous beauty. The boy who followed behind her was dressed in a white dress shirt and looked very gentle. The girl was very confident, while the boy looked rather bashful.

“Hello, my name is Bloody Flying Dragon. Everyone, you can call me Little Dragon.”

The voice of the boy with the white dress shirt was not firm. He looked like a very good and well-behaved student, but the name he gave himself was incredibly domineering. He looked tiny, and when he spoke, he blushed. It was clear that he did not quite live up to the domineering nature of his name.

The group looked at each other and smiled in their hearts.

Once they greeted Bloody Flying Dragon, they cast their gazes on Great Beauty Xu Yao, who was from the disciplinary committee.

“Welcome!”

“Hehe, I didn’t expect that Great Beauty Xu would also like World of Martial Arts! Why have you never appeared on South China Martial Arts Ranking Board before? Are you going to tell us that this is an order from the disciplinary committee?”

At that moment, Phoenix Dances showed the hospitality of a faction master. She smiled and invited Xu Yao to sit beside her.

“Sister Phoenix Dances, you’re teasing me.”

Once they made some small talk and introduced each other, the group began to slowly familiarize themselves with each other.

When she saw that the time was right, Phoenix Dances went straight to the main topic.

“In truth, I asked all of you today because I have something important to decide. I can’t make up my mind on it, so I wanted to discuss it with all of you.”

The group said nothing, but their expressions became stern, and they stopped talking. Their gazes were gathered on Phoenix Dances, and the included Bloody Flying Dragon and Xu Yao, whose in-game name was Jade Lake’s Immortal.

“I believe all of you know that Happy is the top ranked player on the Powerful Ranking Board on South China Martial Arts Ranking Board. He has also joined our faction’s higher management, but due to certain reasons, he can’t join us officially for the time being.”

The group said nothing, nodding in silence. Most of them knew the reason behind it.

“Over this period of time, Happy has contributed to Beautiful Robes Faction swift development so that we can have thirty or so players with high-tier martial arts.”

“Hmm?”

Xu Yao and Bloody Flying Dragon were astonished.

Since they were at the bottom level of Beautiful Robes Faction, they did not know about it.

When they came to suddenly learn that Beautiful Robes Faction actually had around thirty players with high-tier martial arts, they were naturally shocked!

Having around thirty players with high-tier martial arts was the same as having the structure of a normal top-tier sect. How did they manage to do it?

“Happy has been the one who provided most of our high-tier martial art manuals as well as some of our equipment. Beautiful Robes Faction has become a great sect second to none among the cities nearby in one go… but that’s not enough.”

When Phoenix Dances mentioned the final phrase, her voice was sonorous and full of spirit. Her words instantly made all the people’s eyes light up, and they blood burned!

“Our guest faction elder, Happy, gave me a suggestion yesterday.”

When she said that, everyone’s expressions filled with surprise, and they became attentive.

Happy…

This name was an enigma, a name shrouded in mystery to almost every person in the room, but it also existed prominently among them like a symbol of the University of South China!
