# Chapter 1113: He's Really Amazing! Brother Jiangnan Must Be Careful
The girl in the pleated skirt hugged Luo Changge's arm affectionately!
"Brother Changge is really amazing!"
Luo Changge said in a sickly sweet tone, "My Beibei is amazing too!"
"Ah~ you're so annoying~"
In front of them, a handsome young man with a samurai-style haircut looked disgusted; he couldn't take it anymore!
"Sis, can you two stop showing off? Are you trying to make me sick or what?"
Luo Changge curled his lips into a smile: "What's wrong? A big shot like Young Master Bei still lacking girls?"
"Or is your game weak? Can't even pick up any girls?"
Beifeng pursed his lips: "Bullshit! I've hooked up with more women than you've smoked cigarettes. It's just that I haven't found one yet, alright? I—"
His eyes suddenly fell on Zhou Yuqing, and his gaze instantly locked on!
Her pure and spiritual temperament, the softness of a girl-next-door, immediately made Beifeng's heart itch unbearably!
Looking at the worn-out suitcase she was pulling, her cheap street-side clothes, her face without any makeup!
Even the hair tie she used was the kind that costs ten bucks for three at a street stall!
Her rank was only just at Gold One!
A slight smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth. This flavor of girl—he hadn't tasted one yet!
So he raised an eyebrow at Luo Changge!
(๑¯◡¯ิ) "Just watch, big bro's about to bag this one for you!"
With that, he stepped forward twice, moved behind Zhou Yuqing, and his big hand reached straight for the suitcase handle!
"Heavy? Let me help you!"
Zhou Yuqing turned around and glanced at Beifeng, flinching like a frightened rabbit!
(๑ŏ﹏ŏ) "N-no thanks, it's not heavy. I can pull it myself. Thank you!"
Beifeng's hand froze mid-air, the corner of his eye twitching slightly. He put on a gentlemanly smile, like a gentle breeze!
(๑ᵔᴗᵔ) "No problem. You came up from high school, right? Gold One?"
Zhou Yuqing politely answered, "Yes, I got a special recruitment slot..."
At the same time, she glanced at Beifeng in surprise. Platinum Eight Stars?
Was this really a freshman? His rank was already higher than most of the senior students at Pioneer Academy?
Hearing that Zhou Yuqing was a special recruit, Beifeng was also a little surprised. But he seemed to notice her shock at his rank and smiled warmly.
"I'm from Wudu University. I'm a few years older, so a higher rank is normal."
"I heard this selection is very strict, but for me, it's pretty much a sure thing. None of the freshmen this year can surpass me."
"Your rank is low, so the selection might be a bit tough for you. Don't worry, I'll look out for you."
Zhou Yuqing shook her head.
(。・᷄◠・᷅) "No, thank you. I don't need looking out for. I'll give it my all in the selection."
Luo Changge, standing behind, chimed in: "What? You look down on my brother Bei? Saying he's unmatched among freshmen—that's just him being modest!"
"Even among the seniors, how many can actually beat him?"
As he spoke, he raised an eyebrow at Beifeng!
(๑◔ٹ◔ิ)
Beifeng chuckled lightly: "Even that Jiangnan, I'm not afraid of him. We're only one star apart."
Zhou Yuqing was stunned: (*゚ロ゚)!! "Huh? You can beat Brother Jiangnan? Really?"
Beifeng's expression flickered for a moment with unnaturalness, but he still laughed freely.
(٥・᷄ㅂ・᷅) "You'll know when I make a stunning performance in this selection!"
"Jiangnan? Hah~ I'll challenge him. It's time to pull him down from his pedestal!"
After he finished speaking, Beifeng's gaze drifted toward Zhou Yuqing.
She was pulling her suitcase, her big eyes searching around. Clearly, Beifeng's words had gone in one ear and out the other.
A vein bulged on Beifeng's forehead. He was about to say something when—
At that moment, Zhou Yuqing's eyes lit up with excitement. She waved ecstatically toward the academy gate!
Pulling her suitcase, she trotted over!
٩(*ᵒ̌ꇴᵒ̌*)ᓄ[Case]
"Brother Jiangnan! It's me! Xiaoqing!"
Jiangnan's eyes brightened at the sound of her voice!
"Heavens! Sister Yuqing?"
In an instant, he teleported over. Zhou Yuqing crashed into Jiangnan's arms, hugging him excitedly!
(๑ớ◡ờ)(ᵒ̴̶̷◡ᵒ̴̶̷๐)
Jiangnan's eyes were full of emotion: "It's only been a while, and you've grown so much? You're a big girl now!"
"What made you think of coming here?"
The last time they met was during the mission to suppress the spirit storm at Thousand Island Lake.
As he talked, he affectionately patted Zhou Yuqing's head.
The corner of Beifeng's mouth twitched.
Damn! She knows Jiangnan? And that well?
So everything he just said about challenging Jiangnan—he was basically shooting himself in the foot?
Seeing Zhou Yuqing hugging Jiangnan so intimately, Beifeng's gaze gradually turned cold.
Luo Changge, on the other hand, watched Jiangnan with great interest.
Zhou Yuqing smiled sweetly: "I'm also participating in the selection. I got a special recruitment. If I pass, I'll be your junior!"
Jiangnan's eyes were full of joy: "That's awesome! How's Aunt Zhou? Is everything okay at home? Still living in the alley?"
During those days when he was renting a place, there were countless nights he had no money for dinner, surviving on just the school cafeteria's lunch.
He'd think, just drink more water and tough it out.
Once you fall asleep, you're not hungry anymore.
Every time, Zhou Yuqing would cook him noodles or bring leftover food from the barbecue stall to his room.
Until now, the taste of those noodles still lingered in Jiangnan's memory. They were the best thing he'd ever eaten.
Zhou Yuqing smiled: "After I became a spirit warrior, I started making money. My mom and I moved into an apartment. Everything's fine."
"My mom always sees you on TV. She was talking about you just two days ago, saying Brother Jiangnan has made something of himself, that you're on TV. Oh, right!"
As she spoke, Zhou Yuqing pulled out two plastic bags from her small suitcase!
"Knowing I was coming, my mom packed these for you. Smoked sausages and farm eggs—they're all from our own chickens. Boil them and eat them when you get back."
"And apricots from our own tree. They're really sweet!"
Zhou Yuqing kept pulling things out of her small suitcase. Jiangnan rubbed his eyes and stuffed all the plastic bags into his alternate dimension.
(๑¯᷄◡ก̀) "When I have time, I'll go back and visit Aunt Zhou. Now that you're here, don't worry. I've got your back."
The feeling of having someone far away who still remembers and cares about you—it's really good.
Zhou Yuqing saw Jiangnan's eyes turning red as he kept rubbing them, so she tilted her head and asked, "Brother Jiangnan? Your eyes..."
Jiangnan smiled brilliantly: "It's nothing. I didn't sleep well last night. My eyes just feel a bit uncomfortable."
At that moment, Beifeng and his two companions strolled over.
Beifeng said casually, "Gold One? The chances of her passing the selection are pretty much zero, right?"
Zhou Yuqing's brows furrowed slightly, and she slowly clenched her small fists.
"I... I'll do my best!"
Jiangnan waved his hand grandly: "Do your best my ass? I'll make a call right now. Sister Menglu will definitely adore you when she sees you!"
"Who needs to participate in a stupid selection? Direct admission—I said so!"
Zhou Yuqing's eyes went wide, staring at Jiangnan in shock!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
Beifeng almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!
Damn! Was it really that simple and direct?
So this is what it feels like to have connections up top?
Beifeng glared: "This is abusing your power for personal gain! This is playing favorites! If you let her pass directly, what's the point of the selection?"
"Everyone, am I right?"
All eyes suddenly turned to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan shrugged, looking completely natural!
ʅ(・´‸・`)ʃ "Yeah, I am playing favorites. Got a problem with that?"
"If you can do it too, go ahead. No one's stopping you."
He was about to make the call!
[From Beifeng: Resentment Value +1000!]
"So blatant? I'm going to report you to the dean! I—"
Zhao Dezhu heard the commotion and walked over: "Who's looking for me?"
Jiangnan: "Ah, Grandpa Zhu, this is a little sister of mine. Electro-magnetic system, freshman. Just arrange her for Sister Menglu's side."
Zhao Dezhu rolled his eyes: "Such a trivial matter—why can't you decide it yourself? Why come to me?"
With that, he turned and walked away...
Beifeng: ???
Wait... that's it? It's been arranged? And Jiangnan gets to decide it himself?
Is Jiangnan's word really that powerful?
Even Zhou Yuqing stood frozen on the spot, confused.
(´゚ω゚)?
I... I'm enrolled just like that?
And Brother Jiangnan is really just a student here?
Beifeng gritted his teeth, his eyes red, spiritual energy surging around him!
He took a step forward, looking like he was about to throw down!
Zhou Yuqing's face turned pale. She quickly tugged at Jiangnan's sleeve!
"Brother Jiangnan, be careful! He said he's really strong, just one star behind you. He wants to challenge you and pull you down from your pedestal!"
Jiangnan heard this and looked at Beifeng with an odd expression.
(≖_≖) "Are you serious?"
A few brothers by the street vendor couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud!
(ԾกԾ⑉) "Pfft~"
Beifeng's eyes widened, his face flushing red!
"What are you guys laughing at?"
Those brothers couldn't stop laughing!
☚(˃᷄ꇴ˂᷅๑) "Not gonna lie, bro! That might be the funniest joke I've heard all day!"
"One star apart? What star? A star in the sky? Hahahaha!"
"Dude, did you just get internet at your place? Are you messing with Nan Shen's title of World's Strongest Platinum?"
In an instant, everyone's gaze focused on Beifeng!
Beifeng wished he could explode on the spot. Damn!
He'd just bragged, and then the real deal showed up?
Could there be anything more mortifying than this?
Jiangnan, on the other hand, looked at Beifeng and his two companions with great interest. Freshmen? Platinum rank?
That high? That doesn't seem right?
Wait! Damn! Could they be heirs of some reclusive major clan?
(๑•̀益•́)و✧ Yes!
Had he finally run into them?
Oh, I love this!
In an instant, Jiangnan's gaze at them was like looking at a mountain of gold!
He almost drooled!
٩(º﹃º٩) Hehehe~
He still had over ten million skill points that he hadn't used yet!
Beifeng shuddered violently under Jiangnan's stare!
That look was like a hungry wolf spotting its prey!
Jiangnan straightened his expression.
(๑͡ಠ.̮͡ಠ) "Brother, please, by all means, pull me down from my pedestal."
Beifeng's forehead dripped with cold sweat...
