Amazingly, the water wave just dodged the blue halo when they met. After the wave was gone, Duanmu Xi still stood on the stage, not hurt or wetted at all.

Seeing the scene, Nalan Xi on the podium widened his eyes in astonishment. That was…

Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes were full of pride. His Xi was always so shiny.

Phoenix Five’s face was filled with admiration. Her Highness was always so convincingly capable.

Feng Xifan also looked very excited. Duanmu Xi could always take others by surprise. He seemed unable to turn his gaze away from her anymore. He was completely in love with her.

Xue Xinmei goggled at Duanmu Xi in shock. Duanmu Xi was immune to her water spiritual magic. Why? Why was this happening?

“Your show is done. And now, it is my turn.” Duanmu Xi dashed towards Xue Xinmei like a flash of lightning.

In astonishment, Xue Xinmei quickly raised her spiritual wand and cast a water wall.

Duanmu Xi saw that and instantly gathered her mysterious Qi on the dagger in her right hand. The glistening dagger immediately displayed a dark blue halo.

With a bang, the water wall was broken and the dagger that carried a dark blue halo came straight at the middle of Xue Xinmei’s brows.

“You lost.” An indifferent voice sounded in Xue Xinmei’s ears at the same time.

Xue Xinmei widened her eyes in disbelief. She lost. She lost so miserably. She didn’t deserve to be called a genius. Compared with Duanmu Xi, she was so much inferior.

“I won’t give up. I will come and seek revenge again.” Her voice was not loud but stubborn.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi arched her eyebrow and then took back her dagger, saying casually, “Whatever.”

The girl was quite bold. Young as she was, she was still quite competent. It was a pity that she was that pervert’s sister.

“Duanmu Xi prevails.”

“Duanmu Xi… Duanmu Xi…” The cheers came from all directions and then became in unison.

Duanmu Xi flew off the stage and went back to Wisteria Yard with Xuanyuan Mo.

Shortly after they were back in Wisteria Yard, Duanmu Xi’s three masters arrived together.

“Xi, come here. Tell me why you can be immune to the water spiritual magic?” No sooner had Situ Kong arrived than he ran to Duanmu Xi and asked her about his doubt.

“Chief Master, you also went to watch the contest? Why didn’t I see you there?”

Situ Kong blushed and claimed with dignity, “How can I miss my precious disciple’s contest?”

He watched every contest of his precious disciple though he was hiding in the darkness.

Hearing that, Duanmu Xi took a glance at her third master aside and saw her eyes twitch. Then, she realized that her third master must have come to watch her contest as well. Her two masters did care about her so much but they just wouldn’t say it.

“Tomorrow is the final. Would you please all come to cheer up for me?”

“Of course I will come. Xi, tell me how you made it. What’s about the blue halo?” After saying that, Situ Kong looked at Duanmu Xi with an expectant facial expression.

“It is due to the Water-proof Bead, right?” Rather than Duanmu Xi, Nalan Xi answered his question.

Situ Kong exclaimed at once, “Water-proof Bead? That is an amazing treasure! Xi, is he right?”

Rather than answer Situ Kong, Duanmu Xi stared at Nalan Xi in confusion, “Second Master, how would you know that it was due to the Water-proof Bead?”

Nalan Xi smiled, “It seems to be Water-proof Bead indeed. I’m afraid there is no other thing that can be immune to the water spiritual magic and avoid water than the legendary Water-proof Bead.”

Duanmu Xi nodded inwardly and thought that her second master was really smart. “It is the Water-proof Bead indeed.”

“It is really the Water-proof Bead. Now that I’ve seen such a treasure in my life, I’ll have nothing to regret even if I die.”

Mei Luo who kept silent all the time also said, “I’ve heard of the magic of Water-proof Bead. Today I finally get to see how amazing it is.”

“Okay. Xi is tired. Please let her have a rest.” Xuanyuan Mo directly brought Duanmu Xi back into the room with his arms around her shoulders, leaving the three of them no time to react.

They had taken up long enough time of Xi at other times. It was great that there was no class these days. And they still came to contend for Xi against him. Of course he wouldn’t let them occupy Xi’s time anymore.

A moment later, the three masters in Wisteria Yard finally came to their senses.

“Hey, this brat…” Situ Kong pointed at the back of Xuanyuan Mo and flared up.

“Girl, have a good rest!” Nalan Xi shouted.

On the contrary, Mei Luo said nothing and with one bound, she directly disappeared.

“Snow, my masters are still outside. Is this appropriate?” Duanmu Xi in the room looked out of the window from time to time.

“It is not inappropriate. Since we don’t go out, they will leave soon.” Xuanyuan Mo turned Duanmu Xi’s head back gently and pressed his lips on hers.

Duanmu Xi widened her purple eyes and stared at the handsome face in front blankly.

“Silly, close your eyes.” His husky voice was full of temptation.

Xuanyuan Mo’s husky and deep voice, seemingly carrying infinite magic, tempted Duanmu Xi to slowly close her eyes and become immersed in his hot kisses.



At night, Phoenix Five entered Duanmu Xi’s room with a pile of materials.

“Your Highness, this is the list of the candidates of the final.”

Duanmu Xi took the list and looked at it. Most of the candidates were acquaintances. The ten candidates of the final were Hua Xian’er, Yue Ruye, Duanmu Xi, Xue Luochen, Feng Xifan, Chu Lian’er, Hua Ye’er, Mu Jianfeng, Lian Zhengyu and Xiahou Shan.

“Go and investigate these people.”

“Your Highness, I’ve done the investigation. These are their materials.” Phoenix Five put the materials in front of Duanmu Xi. She had anticipated that Her Highness would ask her to investigate the other candidates so she had arranged for people to work on it the moment she got the list.

Duanmu Xi took a look at Phoenix Five in astonishment, “Oh? How come you’ve become smart?”

“Haha. Having followed Your Highness for a long time, of course I’ve become smart,” Phoenix Five said fawningly.

“Good.” Duanmu Xi cleared her throat with joy, “Okay. Let’s hark back to the subject. Is Xue Luochen an illegitimate son of the Xue Family?”

“Yes. Since Xue Jinshuo was ruined by you, Xue Qing has made Xue Luochen the young master of the Xue Family.”

“Oh? How is Xue Luochen?” Xue Luochen was the illegitimate son and the current young master of the Xue Family. Duanmu Xi was interested in him indeed.

“Rumor has it that he is an ignorant and incompetent playboy, who always has fun in the brothels. He cannot be compared with Xue Jinshuo at all.”

“Oh yeah? I don’t think so.” He was at least better than his brother in one aspect. Since he preferred to go to the brothels, he must like women, not men.

“Yeah, I also think the rumor is fake.” It was also rumored that Her Highness was a total wreck, but Her Highness turned out to be so capable now. Hence, rumors couldn’t be taken seriously.

“Well, of course it is fake.” Could the crafty Xue Qing make a useless man who indulged in dissipation take Xue Jinshuo’s place to be the young master of the Xue Family? Could an incompetent playboy defeat so many masters and make it to the final? Xue Luochen was so good at hiding his capability. Supposedly, he didn’t live a good life in the Xue’s mansion.

The next candidate was Hua Ye’er. Her name was so randomly made. “Is Hua Ye’er the sister of Hua Xian’er?”

“Yes, Hua Ye’er is the half-sister of Hua Xian’er. They are both the legitimate daughters of the Hua Family. Hua Ye’er’s father is the husband of Hua Mei, the master of the Hua Family but he passed away when Hua Ye’er was little. Hua Mei’s current husband is the father of Hua Xian’er.”

Duanmu Xi snorted inwardly. Life was full of corny stories.

“It is said that Hua Ye’er is not favored in the Hua Family. Hua Mei, the master of the Hua Family, loves her eldest daughter Hua Xian’er most.”

Eldest daughter? Hua Mei’s second husband could make her give birth to the eldest daughter for him. Evidently, Hua Xian’er’s father was quite scheming!

“As to Mu Jianfeng, his information is too little.”

“Yes, due to a lack of time, we can only learn that Mu Jianfeng is from the Qinglong Empire. He is above the Mysterious King. Yet, it is said that he is quite close to Feng Xifan, the young master of the Feng Family.”

From the Qinglong Empire? And he was close to Feng Xifan? Mu Jianfeng’s identity couldn’t be inferior.

“Lian Zhengyu. What a good name! He is from the Xuanwu Empire?”

“Yes, he and Xiahou Shan are both from the Xuanwu Empire. It is said that they entered the academy together. Lian Zhengyu always follows Xiahou Shan, who feels like Xiahou Shan’s bodyguard.”

A bodyguard? Xiahou was the imperial family name of the Xuanwu Empire. Since Lian Zhengyu could act as the bodyguard of an imperial family member, his identity couldn’t be inferior. Those who could make it into Shengjin Academy shouldn’t be overlooked indeed.

“Okay. You can leave.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”



Now in another wing room of Shengjin Academy, Xiahou Shan was also reading the candidate list of the final, sitting by the desk. A figure suddenly appeared before her.

“You are here!”

“What do you need me to do, Your Highness?” The voice was a bit cold.

“I need you to help me make it to the Final Five tomorrow afternoon.”

“Yes.” The figure disappeared after giving the reply.

When Xiahou Shan thought of what the woman said just now, her eyes glittered with the confidence of victory.

In a wing room of the chatelain’s mansion in Zhongzhou City, Chu Lian’er was also watching the candidate list for the final.

The sudden air fluctuation alarmed her, “Who is there?”

“Spiritual Emperor is so superior. You’ve found me as soon as I arrived.” A coquettish voice reverberated through the whole room. A pink figure appeared before Chu Lian’er.

“It’s you? What are you doing here?” Upon seeing that the visitor was Hua Xian’er, Chu Lian’er said grumpily at once.

Hua Xian’er said with an obsequious smile, “Don’t be so ferocious! Today, I’m here to cooperate with you.”

“Cooperate with me?” Chu Lian’er was suspicious. They were deadly foes. What could they cooperate in?
