Chapter 39: Xu Xin Visits

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The destruction of the tomb robber group lifted the burden off the governor of Gusu City’s shoulders. Happy received the Small Reversion Pill, just as he hoped, and continued practicing his martial arts. He went to the periphery of Black Wind Mountain, and in a day, he pushed Flowering Knights Blade Technique and Five Continuous Axe Strikes to the ninth realm. His qi was now almost at thirty-five points, and he was only five points away from Gate Realm.

The next day, Happy was shaken awake by Bai Lang early in the morning.

“What’s wrong?”

Happy’s mind was still foggy with sleep. He yawned while he sat up on his bed as he continued nodding off. But with just one glance, he saw the person who had woken him up swiftly return to his computer. He stared at the screen with Chen Fan and Qi Ci with their teeth clenched as if they were possessed.

“Gate Realm! Damn him… I’m just one day slower than he is… and he is already ahead of me.”

“Tea Words, that rascal.”

“Butt Shaker’s qi is already at thirty-eight as well. Tsk, that’s data from yesterday. Right now, he’s probably in Gate Realm already.”

The three spoke one after another in anger and envy. Chen Fan was in charge of controlling the mouse, so he scrolled down and swept through the data of all the people who were ranked at the top of South China Martial Arts Ranking Board.

When he saw this, Happy was suddenly enlightened.

It was the same as in his previous life. The news of Tea Words being the first to enter Gate Realm spread through the University of South China, and the Three Lonely Wolves were shocked by it. They also became so excited that they woke him up.

But…

“… He’s really fast.”

While there was a slightly sentimental look on Happy’s face, he did not feel surprised at all.

Those people might have joined World of Martial Arts a few days before him, but their experience in every other area could definitely not compare to his. Hence, those who could still remain at the top and rank ahead of him were definitely extraordinary people.

“Happy, how’s your progress in Murong Clan?”

“Pretty good. I’ll be able to reach Gate Realm in a few days’ time.”

The trio turned their heads around at the same time and cast Happy a profound glance. They did not say anything before shifting their gazes to the computer again. “Next time, when you want to joke around, say something that we’ll actually be able to believe.”

“You… are becoming more and more dishonest… Look at you, you now know how to lie.” While Bai Lang continued scrolling down with the mouse, he shook his head and sighed expressionlessly.

They could not be blamed for not believing him.

Happy had worked for nothing in Murong Clan for a week before he started receiving quests. He had not been practicing martial arts for a long time, so there was no way he could be ahead of the trio.

Hence, it was only natural that they thought that he was joking.

Happy was speechless.

He sat at the edge of his bed and was dazed for a moment before he came to a realization that it was absolutely useless for him to be honest. With resignation, he sighed in his heart. He was in no mood to make any sort of explanation, so he jumped down from the top bunk and went to wash his face in the bathroom.

Once he came out, he noticed that the Three Lonely Wolves were still glued to the screen, unmoving. All their attention was on the data, and their eyes burned with a fighting spirit that made them sparkle like a galaxy. Happy could not help but get curious.

“What’s up with all of you today? Don’t you need to go to lectures?”

Happy took a look at the time. It was ten minutes to eight, so they were about to be late.

The trio raised their heads at the same time, and with resentful gazes, they stared at Happy.

“Come on, today’s a weekend!”

“We’re not someone who doesn’t know how to treasure his time even though he has lots of it.”

“I’m sorry. I did a bad thing, I’ll disappear right now.”

Happy could not handle his dormmates denouncing him, so he just cackled and grabbed his jacket before he headed out.

“Bring me tapioca balls.”

“3 RMB soup dumplings, thanks.”

“Soy milk and fried doughsticks.”

The Three Lonely Wolves stated their order to their “food delivery person” in a great show of cooperation.

Happy’s attitude when it came to admitting that he was wrong was very good. He first dealt with his breakfast, then hurriedly picked two bottles of tapioca balls, soy milk, and a bag of soup dumplings and fried doughsticks while laboriously squeezing his way through the huge crowd. He swiftly made his way to his dorm, but someone called out to him while he was on the way.

“Chen Kaixin.”

The voice was very familiar. It also seemed to have become much softer.

He turned around carefully and found Xu Xin standing right in front of him with her back straight.

She was dressed in a white one-piece dress, casual jeans, and a delicate yellow coat. There was a slight flush on her cheeks, and she had her fingers laced together. There were hints of bashfulness and nervousness in her attractive and pure image. She had to have noticed that when she shouted hastily, she had attracted a lot of unnecessary attention.

“Xu Xin?”

Even though he now had some degree of tolerance for beautiful girls, Happy still lost his composure when Xu Xin suddenly appeared in front of him while dressed very beautifully. He sucked in a deep breath and stopped moving.

“Are you free now? I have something to ask of you.”

Xu Xin’s face was red. This was the first time she spoke on her own free will to a boy under so many gazes. Her face burned hotly.

“If it takes a long time… Look.” Happy raised his hands with a wry smile. “I have a duty at hand right now. Could you wait for me to come down? Or do you want to come and visit my dorm?”

‘What?! You’re actually luring a young girl into the boy’s dorm when the sun is still out?!

‘You shameless bastard!’

The boys in the area glared at Happy so much that they would have struck him down on the spot if looks could kill!

However, Xu Xin’s reaction caused all the hearts of the boys in the area to shatter. Her eyes lit up, and she looked very surprised and delighted.

“Will I be a bother if I visit your dorm?”

“It’s fine, they’re already awake.”

When Happy said those words, he also felt dazed. He felt extremely regretful when he invited Xu Xin to his dorm, but he did not expect that she would actually nod without any hesitation.

‘What’s going on here?!’

Happy could not wrap his head around this matter, but he managed to extend an invitation to Xu Xin in time.

“Alright. I’ve wanted to take a look at the South China Martial Artists Ranking Board all of you made since a long time ago.”

Happy instantly came to a realization. ‘So that’s what it is.’

Xu Xin was also doing a computer engineering degree while South China Martial Artists Ranking Board was currently trending in the university, so it was no wonder that she would take the initiative to make a request to take a look at it.

However, even though she had readily accepted the invitation, when she actually walked through the entrance to the boy’s dorm, she became nervous. She followed behind Happy closely with her face flushed red. She had her head lowered and did not dare look around casually, which made her look as adorable as a honey peach.

At the moment he returned to the dorm, Happy went forward to scout the situation in there. Once he was certain that the Three Lonely Wolves did not have their dirty socks, underwear, or other banned items all over the place or weren’t watching Japanese adult entertainment videos, he had the courage to lead Xu Xin into his dorm.

At the instant a beauty entered their room, the Three Lonely Wolves, who were eating by their table, were stunned. They found themselves completely dumbfounded. Qi Ci still had a few fried doughsticks stuffed in his mouth, and soy milk started dripping down Chen Fan’s pants. Bai Lang actually screamed before rushing into the bathroom because the soup dumplings scalded him. He did not come out even after a long time had passed.

‘Why are their reactions so over-the-top?’

Xu Xin absolutely did not know the lethal force the department princess had over sedentary boys.

“Ignore them.”

When he saw the disappointing display from his brothers, Happy felt extremely embarrassed. He coughed, and by pure impulse, tugged his blushing guest to sit in front of the now vacant computer table.

This action did not just cause Happy, who just realized what he did, and Xu Xin to both blush and separate from each other as if they had been electrocuted, but also shocked Qi Ci, who was watching from the side. He ended up using too much force when he sucked in his fried doughsticks, and they went straight into his windpipe. He covered his mouth as his face turned red. He became the second person to run into the bathroom before beginning to cough violently!

Chen Fan’s reaction was even more exaggerated. He only snapped out of his daze when half of his soymilk leaked out of his cup. In a flurry of motion, he gave Happy a thumbs-up while gritting his teeth to endure the pain and rushed into the bathroom as well.

“What’s wrong with them?”

When she saw everyone rushing into the bathroom, the flush on Xu Xin’s face gradually faded away. She took the initiative to divert their attention away from the awkwardness that stemmed from their close contact moments ago.

“Well…” Once Happy composed himself, he explained with extraordinary calm, “It’s fine. They’re used to eating in the bathroom.”
