Chapter 20: Challenge

Chapter 20: Challenge

Jian Chen couldn’t help but feel fury from Ka Di Liang’s arrogance. Holding his own head up to look at him with disdain, Jian Chen said, “You were defeated by me before, what right do you have to demand a challenge from me?” Even now, Jian Chen’s own tone carried a hint of arrogance that he had carried over from his previous world. This was a habitual attitude that somehow came out by accident.

Hearing Jian Chen’s words, Ka Di Liang’s handsome face went deathly white. Extreme anger flashed through his eyes, but he didn’t dare to break the pacifistic rules of the library; otherwise he would had long since attacked Jian Chen.

Even Ka Di Qiuli, who was standing by her brother’s side, was indignant. Glaring at Jian Chen, she started to jeer, “Hmph, you won’t even accept my brother’s challenge to a duel, what kind of man are you?”

Hearing Ka Di Qiuli back him up, Ka Di Liang’s eyes brightened up and felt reenergized, “That’s right; not accepting a duel, that’s what a coward does. Changyang Xiang Tian, I’ll be waiting for you at the fighting arena. If you admit that you’re a coward, then don’t come. Third sister, let’s go to the arena!” After that, Ka Di Liang glared at Jian Chen before turning around to exit the library.

“Hmph, Changyang Xiang Tian, you better come; you’re a coward if you don’t show up!”  Ka Di Qiuli cried out as she followed her brother.

“Changyang Xiang Tian, isn’t that the new Freshmen Ruler from the competition…?”

“Seems about right, I heard that Changyang Xiang Tian is at the 8th Saint Force layer but he ended up beating several students who were a layer higher, how amazing…”

After Ka Di Qiuli left, the entire library started to buzz with comments. Everyone was starting to comment about the Freshman Ruler, Changyang Xiang Tian.

Even the girl who was sitting next to Jian Chen had a small look of astonishment as she looked at him. Her eyes were blinking rapidly from this development, and it was clear to see that she had not expected Jian Chen to be the Freshmen Ruler.

Jian Chen slowly clasped shut the book in his hand, with a face that was unsightly to see. After the two siblings from the Ka Di clan disturbed him, he was no longer in the mood to read. Plus, Jian Chen had no other choice but to accept the challenge after it was issued, otherwise the entire academy would look down on him. Although Jian Chen didn’t really care about his own reputation, he was one of the symbols of the Changyang clan. Since his older brother wasn’t around, he would have to take up the challenge himself to make sure the Changyang clan didn’t get sullied. At the same time, Jian Chen didn’t want Changyang Hu to be ridiculed for having such a cowardly brother.

Slowly standing up from his chair, he grabbed the few books he had with him and returned them to the bookshelf. After the books were neatly shelved, Jian Chen began to walk out of the library. At that moment, the entire library watched Jian Chen’s movements.

“Hey, Changyang Xiang Tian!” As Jian Chen reached the gates of the library, the female who was sitting next to him called out to him.

Turning around in surprise, Jian Chen looked at the beautiful girl with an even look, “Yes?”

Hearing the even tone in his voice, the girl couldn’t help but pout, but she didn’t stay anything and instead walked up to Jian Chen and said, “Changyang Xiang Tian, are you really going to accept his challenge at the arena?”

“Of course!” Jian Chen nodded.

“You don’t actually have to accept his challenge at all. The library banned any sort of loud noises, so those people have already violated the rules imposed by the academy. You could just go and report this to the headmaster, and he’ll definitely penalize those two. In Kargath Academy, no one has ever dared to go against the headmaster’s command,” the girl said.
