Against Heaven's Will

’Damn it, just you wait!’ Xuefeng cursed under his breath, walking out at the ramp. ’I will show you why you should remember the name, Liu Xuefeng!’

"Please give him a warm applause!" the commentator called out at the same time, causing the crowd to burst into cheers.

Naturally, they weren’t as loud and impressive compared to his predecessor, Lu Fang, but it was understandable. Not many people knew him yet. His fame was nothing compared to the famous youths who gathered it for years.

That would definitely change in the near future.

"Kyaaa! You are so handsome!"

"Look here! Look here!"

Amidst the cheers were also cries of females who stood next to the ramp, reaching out from the stands as if trying to touch him. The ramp turned out to be placed right in the middle of the seats, having fan-girls on both sides.

Only then did he realize that his face was displayed on four different screens in high resolution, tracking his every movement. It was his time to shine.

Swoosh!

He straightened his back as a pair of his signature Golden Wings burst out, spreading out right in front of the girls’ faces. They shone the brightest they have ever been, blinding the people with the reflected sun. He retracted them right after and smiled coolly, waving at the crowd.

They seemed too easy to impress, clapping harder with their mouths open when he didn’t even do anything.

’This will be a piece of cake,’ Xuefeng thought when the commentator spoke again.

"Not everyone might know Liu Xuefeng but oh boy! Let me tell you!" The commentator paused, building the tension. "Even though he came to Heaven Realm less than a week ago, his unlimited talent and perfect battle techniques were already noticed by the top of the top! Even Sect Master Liu from the House of Dragons couldn’t resist the young talent, snatching him from everyone else!"

"THIS! IS! NOT! ALL!" Commentator shouted, his excited voice filling the whole arena. "You want the proof of his strength? He was the only person under thirty years old who managed to break the Qualification Test Black Dragonic Stonewall. HE BROKE IT! And he is only nineteen years old! Can you believe that?!"

’Damn... This man is would create hype even from the turtle’s race...’ Xuefeng commented amazed.

The Commentator didn’t seem to be finished as he cried out, "Who is excited to see another miracle at this Grand Tournament?! Let’s ask Liu Xuefeng to bring us exciting matches today! LET ME HEAR IT! XUEFENG! XUEFENG!"

Xuefeng wouldn’t even be surprised if the fans came just to listen to the commentator speak, making even the boring fights exciting to watch. The crowd came for the entertainment and the entertainment shall be given.

"XUE-FENG! XUE-FENG! XUE-FENG!"

As the fans cheered, Xuefeng finally launched in the sky, activating his highest speed as he glided above the crowd. Nine Elemental Qi accompanied him, bursting out from his legs and hands, creating a colorful rainbow that made all the ladies go wild.

"Those graceful movements! Those marvelous Arts!" The commentator emphasized but Xuefeng suddenly lost the focus on the event, hearing Ming’s question.

’Xuefeng, look at the big platform sticking out in the middle of the stands. Can you see a black-haired beauty of purple eyes anywhere?’

Although Ming was still connected with him, she could no longer hear or see everything he did, with her Spirit outside of him.

It wasn’t hard to find the platform she wanted as it was the only one in the arena, probably housing very important people. Xuefeng didn’t hesitate to fly around the arena once again and hovered in front of the windows to see the insides.

He was surprised by the number of experts standing there by the windows and watching his every move closely. Among them, he found a beauty of purple eyes just as Ming described and their gaze locked.

’Yeah, I can see her. Is that Sect Master Liu’s daughter?’ Xuefeng questioned as he waved at her, pretending it was his purpose all along.

Liu Xinyu knitted her eyebrows but then smiled and waved back at him. At that moment, the screens shifted and split it two, displaying both of them looking at each other. A gentle melody played in the background, adding the romantic tension between them.

"Just their gaze can tell us there is something between them! Is this friendship? A Senior Disciple admiration or maybe more? Love perhaps? Who is excited to witness the birth of the new Power Couple that will shake the Heavens?! LET ME HEAR YOU!"

"YEAH!" The crowd confirmed with a cry but Xuefeng could only cringe at that. Didn’t everyone just hear he had a wife already?

’Ignore it, focus on the platform. Tell me how many experts you can see,’ Ming hurried.

’At least fifty of them,’ Xuefeng reported as he counted them.

’I can bet all of them came to kill you and claim your Elemental Bracelet. As they can’t create trouble in the Capital, they probably came to some agreement with the City Lord,’ Ming guessed. ’How about we nuke all their plans and create chaos? Everyone already knows about your Elemental Bracelet anyway.’

Xuefeng grinned at that idea.

’They want to fuck us over? Let’s make their asses burn.’

———

"Is that the person you were talking about?"

Inside the closed platform, the Dragon Race member questioned as all the experts watched their target wave at Liu Xinyu.

"Yes," Liu Xinyu confirmed simply, not even looking away from Xuefeng. She was a bit annoyed at the commentator but she didn’t comment in the end, feeling good inside. If Xuefeng was just some random dude, she would kill the commentator in a heartbeat.

"He seems to know we are after him," Dragon Race member muttered to which Liu Xinyu nodded once again.

"Xuefeng already knew you will go after him before he even came to the Heaven Realm. He will not easily handle the Elemental Bracelet over."

"To think he is a Forrest Elf as well... Such a cutie," One of the two blond Elf ladies commented. "I feel bad for the situation he is in. A pity he might fall to this."

Huh?

Just as she spoke, everyone’s eyes widened at the sudden development. Xuefeng raised his right wrist and pointed at it while mouthing something with a smile.

"Do you want it?" Liu Xinyu translated what he said and burst out laughing. "Hahaha! See? He knows it very well."

It wasn’t the end. Xuefeng laughed as well and began uncovering his wrist as if rolling his sleeve out of the heat.

"Wait! What is he doing?!"
