Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

That night, on the way home, after taking two steps, Shen Fei saw the Li family’s young master Li Yuan standing alone at the intersection. He was looking around as if he was waiting for someone.

Upon seeing Shen Fei, Li Yuan anxiously called out, “Hey, you! Stop!” He took three steps and arrived in front of Shen Fei. “Are you really planning on fighting those people? And on the same day that you’re supposed to break off your engagement with Aloy?”

“Yeah. So?” Shen Fei shrugged his shoulders indifferently and turned to leave. Just as he turned around, Li Yuan grabbed his arm rudely.

“I wasn’t done speaking. If I ask you to stay, you have to stay!”

Shen Fei wordlessly turned around. ‘Who the hell does he think he is?’

“Then what do you have to say? Hurry up, I still have things to do.”

“I’ll say it like this, I’ll be there for the competition that day!”

“Fine.” Shen Fei’s mouth twitched as he nodded his head. There must be a lot of people watching the match. And this rich second-generation heir stopped him just to announce this nonsense?

“What? Do you really think I want to watch your performance?” Li Yuan’s eyes instantly turned sharp. “I’m going to save your life!”

“Save my life?” Shen Fei looked at Li Yuan dubiously.

“Don’t forget what you said before. You’re going to break off your engagement with my goddess this weekend! If you deliberately get knocked unconscious during the match, this marriage can’t be called off!”

“…I don’t need you to worry so much about me. I’ll be there to break the engagement off.”

‘He’s acting like a fool.’ Shen Fei cast a pitiful look at Li Yuan. ‘Was there a need to have such a big reaction?’

“Fine, you can go then. But I’m still keeping an eye on you!” After that promise, Li Yuan left in satisfaction.

Staring at Li Yuan’s happy back, Shen Fei was at a loss for words.

‘These bootlickers are troublesome to deal with!’

…

Without any more people stopping him, Shen Fei quickly returned home. Just as he reached home, Shen Fei stretched out his hand and called out his Flame Owl.

“Flame Owl!”

A slender Flame Owl stood docilely on Shen Fei’s arm, preening its feathers.

“Hoot, hoot!”

The current Flame Owl was already Baron-rank. This strength was more than enough to defeat his opponent’s spirit beast!

However, it was not enough!

In tomorrow’s competition, he would beat those arrogant bootlickers and drag their faces through the mud in front of everyone!

He wanted to shut up every person who had something to say about him!

Shen Fei extended his hand and touched the Flame Owl’s fluffy feathers. Immediately, a sound rang in his head.

[Upgradable spirit beast, Flame Owl, has been detected. Do you wish to evolve?]

“Evolve!”

Suddenly, a dazzling white light appeared on the Flame Owl’s body.

The surrounding air was also distorted under the extremely high temperature.

Chen Fei raised his head and looked expectantly at the Flame Owl hovering in the air as it was covered in white light.

After the Flame Owl went from Baron-rank to Marquis-rank, it could be considered a true spirit beast!

The Marquis rank was the dividing line between whether a spirit beast had potential or not! Only those who could cross this line would have the qualifications to be truly trained!

Shen Fei excitedly looked at the Flame Owl that was slowly transforming. In the dazzling light, the Flame Owl’s body gradually became even more slender.

In its appearance, the divine traits of a phoenix also gradually began to show!

“Hoot, hoot!”

The Flame Owl flapped its wings, and the white light on its body instantly turned into countless fireflies and dissipated. At this moment, the Flame Owl had a completely new look!

After the evolution, the Flame Owl now had the characteristics of a phoenix.

The tail feathers that were originally short and hard had turned into slender phoenix feathers that burned fiercely.

Shen Fei looked at the Flame Owl’s interface in surprise.

The flame eating owl’s stats had almost doubled! This was definitely enough!

‘Tomorrow’s duel will be a good show for those bootlickers!’

…

The next day, the training ground that was usually deserted became very noisy. However, this crowd was not here to train. On the contrary, they were all sitting in the audience stands on the side, looking at the center of the training ground in anticipation. According to the scheduled time, a good show was about to happen here.

“Where is he? Why isn’t he here yet?”

The jacket guy’s underling kicked at a pebble on the ground impatiently.

“Don’t worry, it’s not time for the competition yet.” The jacket guy sat in the middle of the field calmly and waited patiently. “But if he’s afraid and doesn’t show up, I can understand that!”

“Why hasn’t the competition started yet?”

“It should be soon. There are still a few minutes left.”

The crowd had begun to chatter away. But suddenly, the noisy training ground quieted down. Everyone’s eyes looked to the distance where a noble figure stood.

That person was the mayor’s daughter, everyone’s goddess, Aloy!

“Am I dreaming? Is the goddess taking the initiative to walk toward me?”

The audience could not help but hold their breaths, not daring to disturb the goddess in the slightest.

“Goddess, my goddess!”

The moment Li Yuan saw Aloy, he immediately lost his mind and knelt down in front of her.

“May I ask what, is there anything you require of me?”

“No.”

In the face of the overattentive Li Yuan, Aloy turned around coldly and went around him. In an instant, Li Yuan’s future appeared in front of Aloy…

After the Li family’s patriarch’s accident, he would lose all of his family’s property and had no money-making skills, so he would become a beggar.

Such a person was not worth her time to befriend.

However, her best friend Anna seemed to like him very much, as the two of them had chatted happily as soon as they met.

‘What an ill-fated relationship.’

Aloy found a clean spot at the training ground and sat down with Anna. She then patiently waited for Shen Fei to appear.

…

Time passed by. The sun was also approaching noon. Everyone waited anxiously under the sun.

However, there was not even a hint of Shen Fei’s appearance.

The jacket guy’s lackey could not hold back his temper and immediately asked his superior, who was beside him, in a low voice, “Why hasn’t Shen Fei arrived yet?”

“Hmph!” The jacket guy was also angry. ‘This Shen Fei actually dared to stand me up! If you can’t win, just say it. What’s the point of beating around the bush?’

Her best friend sat beside Aloy and whispered, “It can’t be that he doesn’t dare to come, right? What a coward.”

Aloy suddenly felt relieved. “This is good, too.”

It would be good if Shen Fei did not come, then he would not have to suffer this beating.

Although it sounds cowardly, as long as Shen Fei does not change the direction of his fate, everything was within the range of Aloy’s acceptance.

“Why don’t we just announce our victory?” the lackey said to the jacket guy in a flattering manner. “He hasn’t come after so long. He must be too scared to come!”

“That’s just what I wanted!” The jacket guy immediately jumped up from the ground, raised his arms, and announced loudly to the surrounding people, “As we have an opponent who is absent, the champion of this match is-”

“Hold on!”

Instantly, the entire place fell silent. The audience turned in unison and looked at the man on the other side of the training ground.

‘Shen Fei, he’s here!’
