Chapter 431: Spotlight

Beauties.

Having seen a lot of the world, beauties constituted more of a cliché for the guests present at the party. However, never had they encountered such mouth-watering beauties as they were witnessing in the hall today.

In case there was only one beauty showing up today, the crowd of guests would at most be interested for a little while before they came back calmly to the mayor and Marc Gavin. However, there was more than one beauty present at the party.

There were in total four beauties of supreme quality appearing in the hall, attracting the attention of all.

The young guests goggled their eyes extremely wide and kept swallowing saliva at these four otherworldly beauties.

“Nord, which one is Rosella?”

A look full of viciousness shone from the crowd. Hearing the inquisition from his pal, York Nord sobered up, grasped the wine glass in his hand even harder and lifted his finger to look at Qian Jin. “The girl wearing a wooden butterfly-shaped hairpin. Damn Qian Jin. These four beauties ought to be mine.”

“Nord, you have quite a good taste. These girls are really of high quality. Were it not for the presence of Qian Jin, I would try with her…”

York Nord turned his head at his partner, wondering why Lenz Zarf, the arrogant Sadder Bloodline Warrior and one of the top students in Punitive Expedition Academy who looked down upon all others showed timidity in front of Qian Jin.

“Nord, I suggest you giving up on Rosella.” Lenz Zarf drank the red wine in his glass and uttered a sigh. “Maybe you do not know how ferocious Qian Jin is. You know there is a Hundred Battle Ranking List in our school?”

York Nord nodded his head. Now that he had set Punitive Expedition Academy as one of the target academies he intended to attend in the future, he had inquired a lot about this academy. In fact, given his identity as the mayor’s son, to be matriculated by Punitive Expedition Academy was no hard task.

“Last night in the party held by our division, Qian Jin beat the 40th seat Wei Buhuan and sent him to the hospital.” Lenz Zarf couldn’t stop the cramp of his eyelids. “Today at noon, he challenged the 30th ranked position belonging to the Griffin Bloodline Warrior, Linguan Youhun, and had the latter yield with just one move.”

“What? How come?” York Nord bounced up high like a cat whose tail was stamped on by someone else.

Lenz Zarf nodded with a sullen look. “Then he was knocked down heavily by the Chimpanzee Bloodline Warrior causing him to shed blood all over his body.”

York Nord gave out a gloating look and felt a pity that he was not directly beaten to death.

“Nothing to feel happy about.” Lenz Zarf raised his wine glass to give a stop to York Nord’s smile. “Everybody thought that he was heavily injured. In the afternoon after school, the 38th and 39th seats Sanshui Lei and Sanshui Jin, the Earth Rat Bloodline Warriors went out to challenge him.”

“Challenge?” York Nord looked from Lenz Zarf to Qian Jin, who was enjoying the dainties in the accompaniment of the four beauties and frowned in sheer confusion. “So how could he attend tonight’s party? Shouldn’t he be lying in the hospital?”

“Yeah, there are people lying in the hospital…” Lenz Zarf released a bitter smile and shrugged his shoulder. “They are the Sanshui brothers.”

“What…” The wine glass in York Nord’s hand wobbled and blood-like deluxe red wine splashed from the glass. “How come?”

“There is more thrilling news.” Lenz Zarf prepared himself another glass of red wine. “I hear that the Sanshui brothers ganged up together to fight Qian Jin. However, they each ended up with upwards of twenty bone fractures.”

York Nord felt a chill rising up from the caudal vertebra into his head fearfully. Was this person so that strong? So it was sheer luck for him to be still alive today after their encounter in the Torrent Battle Fort several days ago. Now that he was dauntless enough to beat my mother, he wouldn’t hold any mercy for me. Ouch. If he knew that I ganged up with the Ray Family last time…

“Alas…” Lenz Zarf once again drunk up the red wine and sighed. “I really wonder who the bloodline warrior between us is. Me, or him?”

“No need to feel sad. Lenz Zarf.” Hoare Tee patted Lenz Zarf on the shoulder with his huge palm. “The next time I reawaken my bloodline power, I will stamp on and crunch this jerk’s spines, just in the same way I did with Fanta Kunge. Then I will spit on his face, to have him know how sleazy ordinary warriors are in the face of bloodline warriors.”

York Nord’s face turned dark and then twisted for a little while. Was this Flame Bear Bloodline Warrior insinuating me now that I didn’t have the bloodline power either?

Lenz Zarf didn’t care for what York Nord was thinking about. He shook his head and sighed, saying to himself that Hoare Tee was over-optimistic. It all happened within the several days’ short time after Qian Jin came to Punitive Expedition Academy that he became the spotlight figure among all students, with a crashing growing tendency hard to be obtained by even they bloodline warriors.

“No need to worry. In a couple of days, my third eldest brother who was expelled to the human-demon battlefront by the principal will come back.” Hoare Tee smiled with confidence. “Over the past year and a half, my brother didn’t have the opportunity to challenge the newly created Hundred Battle Ranking List But I’m sure he will beat Qian Jin down upon his arrival.”

Lenz Zarf nodded his head lightly with a pondering look. With a two years’ age gap, Hoare Tee’s third eldest brother, Hoare Gun stood out among all Flame Bear Bloodline Warriors and through the one and a half years of honing on the human-demon battlefield, he was sure to have improved a lot. With the title of “the Third Children in the Hoare Family”, Hoare Gun was expected to smash Qian Jin effortlessly.

“Vice president of the Crystal Magic Tower Xander is coming… the leader of the Ray Family, Ray Zhen is arriving…”

Against the coming in of the two big shots, the surrounding guests kept locking their eyes on the four beauties standing by Qian Jin, paying no attention to the two figures walking through the doorway. In the past, they used to approach and extend the warmest greeting to such figures, in a bid to be remembered by the figures for expanding their business chains.

However, the business could be pulled any day, but the beauties in front weren’t seen on a regular basis.

Harboring this similar mindset, all guests showed zero fu*k to the Ray Family leader and the Crystal Magic Tower’s vice president who had been waiting long to receive the reverence of the crowd.

The moment Xander stepped into the hall, he feigned a lofty smile habitually and slightly lifted his magic wand, taking on the posture of a superior inspecting his subordinates.

“Oo…”

With his arm lifted halfway, Xander had his arrogant smile frozen, as no compliment flooded in from the crowd. The only thing approached him was the frolicking kittens.

Those people who used to encircle him didn’t even show any interest in the mayor but were unanimously having their attention drawn to one thing—the four beauties accompanying Qian Jin.

These women and the spotlight of the party ought to be mine. On thinking about this, Xander clenched the magic wand so firmly that the blue veins on his arms were bumping up and deep inside he was roaring with anger.

Sensing the strong murderous intent, Qian Jin detected the source with the help of the wine glass and then frowned. Well, like father, like daughter. It was not until this moment did he understand why Abela was such a repugnant girl.

Noticing that Qian Jin was observing him by the light reflection of the wine glass, Xander held back his anger and changed to look at the mayor York Leigh.

“Vice president, thanks for coming to my birthday party. Your appearance will add a lot of color to tonight’s party.”

“Respected Ray Family leader, thank you for being here. I feel greatly happy with your coming and I hope that you can enjoy a joyful night.”

York Leigh lifted his hand to greet the Ray Family leader and the vice president Xander. Then he moved to Marc Gavin and talk with him in an intimate way again.

What… Xander felt a stroke of suffocation in his chest. If didn’t matter that he was neglected by those negligible figures, but how could the mayor do away with him by just waving his hand? Why did he treat Marc Gavin like his lover? He remembered that their mayor held no positive feelings toward the president of the Torrent Battle Fort.

While Ray Zhen paid no attention to the way York Leigh greeted him. As a man of this age, he cared less about this world. However, the hatred of losing his son and granddaughter would never ever easily melt away. To Ray Zhen, Qian Jin had no grounds to kill his son and daughter however far they might have crossed the line.

Ray Zhen locked his tiger-like eyes on Qian Jin, feeling like swallowing him. Did it matter if my granddaughter chopped you to death given that you were just a trivial ordinary warrior? It would be your honor! In the case of your death, we Ray Family would compensate a considerable amount of money to your families, which overweighed the benefits you could bring your family by leaps and bounds.

“Ouch!”

A loud screech rang in the hall, disturbing the harmonious atmosphere of the party. The guests, whose eyes were locked on the four beauties bemusedly, flashed a light filled with surprise and had a quiver nearly at the same time, as they saw a guest spouting blood from his right wrist. The next second, the hand of the guest flopped onto the ground and his lower abdomen was kicked by Gomez Jane, making him fly back instantly.

Splash…

This hand-broken guest knocked down two tables covered with the white cloth for serving food, setting the nearby space into a total mess. The mixture of blood and red wine tainted the white tablecloth, making it hard for the crowd to tell the wine from the blood.

The once boisterous and loud dancing floor was enveloped by silence for this moment being, with the only source of sound coming from the sufferer’s moaning. No one could believe what had happened in front of them.

How could Gomez Jane take out a saber, chop the wrist of a guest and kick him away at the mayor’s birthday party?

It was really a humiliation of the dignity of the mayor.

Realizing this, all guests fixed their eyes on York Leigh carefully, eager to see how this mayor would deal with this incident.
