Chapter 308: Chapter 158: Malicious

Qian Ruhai’s eyes widened. "What a complete madman..."

"He... he actually went again?" Even Xue Yi, who was clearly not on good terms with Shen Han, was a little stunned.

"This... isn’t this going a little too far?" someone murmured, their brow tightly furrowed.

"Is this Qin Fang... really that insane? Is he not afraid Shen Han will just throw caution to the wind and kill him?"

One by one, the Noble Family’s Heirs were stunned by the news, a chill creeping into their hearts.

’That Qin Fang... he really is crazy!’

’What did Shen Han even do to him?’

’He just sent someone to probe him a little, right?’

’Is it really necessary to pursue this to the bitter end?’

During the day, they had been enjoying the spectacle of Shen Han’s humiliation.

But now, they felt a distinct chill...

’That guy, Qin Fang... he doesn’t play by the book!’

That night, the news sent waves of shock through many of the residents.

But Qin Fang slept soundly.

「The next morning,」 Qin Fang arose.

He surveyed the luxurious bedroom, a smile on his face as his eyes narrowed.

’Excellent. No one came to assassinate me last night.’

’Looks like I was right.’

’Even if Shen Han is bursting with rage, he wouldn’t dare touch me here in the Post House.’

’So what’s there to be afraid of?’

He got out of bed, washed up, dressed, and then headed for the Martial Arts Training Ground.

The Martial Arts Training Ground was even more bustling today than it had been yesterday.

"Is it true? Wang Qi from D Courtyard actually challenged Qin Fang?"

"I know Wang Qi. He’s at the Mid-Anjin Stage... Has he lost his mind?"

"That’s just what I heard. I don’t know for sure..."

"But Wang Qi is definitely standing in front of the arena..."

The crowd from D Building was buzzing with discussion.

Countless incredulous stares landed on Wang Qi, making him feel as if he were sitting on pins and needles.

He was on the verge of tears!

’It’s not like I wanted to do this, okay?’

’But there was nothing I could do... Why did I have to get hot-headed and agree to it back then?’

Beside him, Brother Shen and Scarface gulped, their expressions rigid as they endured the searing gazes of the crowd.

Finally, as the appointed time approached, the Black Armored Hundred Households, Wang Jing, appeared on the arena platform with Li Yao and other Black Armored Soldiers, his expression peculiar.

A short while later, Qin Fang arrived as well.

All eyes immediately fixed on Qin Fang.

Even more of the Noble Family’s Heirs from A Courtyard were present, and Qin Fang even spotted a few women among them.

’The number of female Martial Artists is still quite small, relatively speaking.’

He saw Qian Ruhai, who was looking at him as if he were a lunatic.

Lin Chen also wore a strange expression.

He smiled and greeted them, but both of their eyelids twitched as they pretended not to see him.

Then Qin Fang saw his neighbor, Xue Yi. The same Xue Yi who had greeted him so warmly yesterday and even invited him over for a visit now looked at him with a peculiar expression, his earlier enthusiasm gone.

There were other Noble Family’s Heirs who watched him with a clear coldness in their eyes, their brows furrowed.

Finally, he saw Shen Han.

Shen Han and his two Maids had come. The venom and fury in their eyes looked as if they wanted to burn Qin Fang to ashes.

Qin Fang, however, simply smiled back at them. Ignoring their murderous glares, he walked up to the arena.

Hundred Households Wang looked at Qin Fang with a complicated expression and finally sighed.

’Forget it. I wanted to talk him out of it, but he’s clearly determined. There’s nothing more I can say.’

’He made his own choices.’

"Wang Qi of D Building, Room 431, challenges Qin Fang of A Courtyard, Room 19... Maliciously injuring your opponent in the arena is forbidden. If one side concedes or..."

He recited the rules, then asked, "Do you both understand?"

Qin Fang nodded, his eyes narrowed. "Understood."

Wang Qi’s body was rigid. "Un-understood..."

"Good. Enter the arena."

Wang Jing nodded, gesturing for the two of them to enter the arena.

Qin Fang entered first, followed by a stiff-legged Wang Qi.

"Begin."

Wang Jing declared with a nod.

The moment he finished speaking, Qin Fang was already smiling. "I forfeit."

Wang Jing: "..."

The crowd from D Building: "..."

"Qin Fang forfeited just like that?"

"Wh-what’s going on?"

"Wang Qi... is in A Courtyard now?!"

The uninformed residents from D Building erupted, each one of them staring with wide eyes.

Wang Qi stood frozen in place, a look of profound awkwardness on his face.

Wang Jing sighed and announced calmly, "Qin Fang of A Courtyard, Room 19, has conceded defeat. Wang Qi of D Building, Room 431, has won the challenge. Effective immediately, Wang Qi is promoted to A Courtyard... Qin Fang, in accordance with the rules, is demoted one level and will enter B Courtyard. He may choose a temporary residence there."

As Wang Jing made the official announcement, the people from D Building truly erupted.

"He actually made it into A Courtyard?!"

"Holy shit! What the hell is going on?!"

"This, this, this..."

The eyes of the uninformed people from D Building were practically bursting with jealousy as they stared at Wang Qi.

’So jealous!’

’He got into A Courtyard just like that?’

Meanwhile, the faces of the Noble Family’s Heirs were all twitching...

’Even though they had predicted something like this when they heard the news yesterday...’

’...seeing it happen with their own eyes still made their eyelids twitch uncontrollably!’

’This Qin Fang... he’s truly insane!’

’This is blatantly aimed at Shen Han... Is he going to make it so Shen Han can’t even stay in B Courtyard?!’

’If that really happens, Shen Han will lose every last shred of dignity!’

’He’s the young master of a Divine Family!’

’And he won’t even be able to stay in B Courtyard?’

’Does that mean... he’ll have to go to C Courtyard?’

Their expressions flickered... Just the thought of it—if they were in his shoes, they would probably be going insane right now.

"No... maybe it’s not just C Courtyard... That Qin Fang... he might... he might be planning to beat him all the way down... to D Building!"

someone murmured in a low voice.

And those words made every Noble Family’s Heir present suck in a sharp, cold breath.

The way they looked at Qin Fang changed completely...

’What a vicious scheme!’

’Forcing a noble young master like that to squeeze into a room with a bunch of country bumpkins?’

’How... how did he even come up with that?!’

They subconsciously turned to look at Shen Han.

And Shen Han was now trembling from head to toe, his face flushed crimson and the veins on his forehead bulging as if he were about to explode...

Up on the arena platform, Qin Fang paid them no mind, smiling as he said, "The first challenge is over. Hundred Households Wang, to save time, shall we... begin the next?"

Wang Jing: "..."

He silently glanced into the distance at Shen Han, who looked like a volcano on the verge of eruption...
