“You Yue, are you in?” After getting to know Sima You Yue for a day, Fatty Qu had already dropped the honorifics and called her directly by her name.

Sima You Yue opened the door and saw Fatty Qu’s hands in mid air as he was about to go for another bout of knocks.

“What’s the matter?” She asked.

“You’re in! Quick, go find your brother now!” Fatty Qu let out a small sigh of relief before he rushed her.

“What happened?” Why did he suddenly ask her to go find her brother?

“I was on the way back from the library when I heard that Meng Ting is looking for you and wants to challenge you!” Fatty Qu quickly said, while still trying to grasp his breath.

“Looking for me?”

“Yeah, she was blabbering on and on about how a waste like you do not deserve to be in our elite class, so she wants to challenge to put you in your place.”

“Alright, I’ve got it, thank you.” Sima You Yue replied.

“If she really wants to challenge you, I’m afraid things will go out of hand, so it’s best that you quickly go and look for your brother!” Fatty Qu insisted.

“Why do I need to go look for my brother? This is my own problem, so I shall solve it myself.” She leaned lazily on the door as she replied nonchalantly, not at all concerned at the seriousness he had perceived it to be.

“You may be the grandson of the Great General but the Meng Family is not to be trifled with! It’s the largest family clan in Mirage City! Moreover she is the direct descendant, so she has always held her nose up high in the air, trampling on everyone else beneath her. Since she has already declared that she is looking for you, she will definitely come knocking soon!”

“Is she very powerful?” Sima You Yue asked Fatty Qu who wore a worried expression on his face.

“When she was thirteen, she had already achieved the rank of a fifth grade Spirit Warrior!”

“Is that very strong?” She looked at him and asked again.

“Yes, for this age to achieve that, she is considered very strong. Stop dawdling now, my dear Fifth Young Master! Quickly, go and find your brother so that he can protect you!” Fatty Qu could not take it anymore as he urged her.

“Well, if she’s really out to find trouble, even if I avoid it today, she will still come back another day. Hmm? But doesn’t the Academy prohibit fighting?” She asked curiously in an unhurried manner.

“There’s this rule but a challenge is different. As long as the challenges are officially fought on stage then it’s allowed. Many people who have personal grudges use this method to iron things out using this method. What’s more, challenges are all life and death matches where each party would sign a death disclaimer before heading onto stage. She is sure to exact her revenge on you for stepping on her leg in class earlier today. Now, the most important is to hide first and we’ll think of a plan to avoid the next one, we’ll take things step by step!”

“Hide?” Sima You Yue gave him an incredulous look as she put crossed her arms. “There is no such word this dictionary of mine. I, Sima You Yue do not recognize this word!”

“But…She..” Fatty Qu was about to continue persuading Sima You Yue when the door of the next room flung open. Wei Zi Qi stepped out and looked at the two people who were in heated discussion. “What happened?”
