Chen Shuo hugs Su Xiyan's waist

Wow! Is this woman for real?!

Chen Shuo's attention was immediately focused as the whooshing sound was somewhat frightening.

Su Xiyan meant business and took action decisively and swiftly, clearly not joking around.

Moreover, it looked like she was using 70-80% of her full strength.

For a complete novice who had never touched kendo before, this was clearly going all out!

The surrounding students spectating showed even more sympathy in their gazes towards Chen Shuo.

Some of the more timid female students had even turned their heads away, not wanting to see the sorry state Chen Shuo would be in after being struck down.

Why was Senior Sister Su being so ruthless?

She was actually being so harsh towards a new junior brother?

In fact, some of the more prudent students had already gone to grab the first aid kit for the kendo club.

However, the scene that unfolded in the next moment took all the students by surprise!

Just as Su Xiyan's wooden sword was about to strike Chen Shuo's shoulder, he dodged to the side with ease.

Not only were the students present dumbfounded by this, even Su Xiyan herself felt very surprised.

A fleeting look of astonishment passed beneath the composed expression behind her kendo mask.

She then immediately regained her composure.

Chen Shuo having faster reflexes than normal people was to be expected.

Of the people present, nobody except herself knew that Chen Shuo was a young vampire.

Being a vampire naturally gave him superior physical abilities and reflexes compared to ordinary people.

It looked like she would have to use her killer move.

Having missed her strike, Su Xiyan swiftly withdrew her wooden sword.

Just when Chen Shuo was about to relax, the wooden sword stabbed towards him again.

This time, the angle was even more sly, aiming straight for Chen Shuo's neck.

Chen Shuo's footsteps were nimble, dodging Su Xiyan's lethal blow as lightly as a wisp of willow catkin drifting in the wind.

Impossible!

Su Xiyan's pupils dilated, her exquisite face beneath the mask filled with incredulity.

In the kendo club, nobody had ever dodged this move of hers before. It was fair to call it her killer trump card.

Yet by some strange fluke, Chen Shuo's seemingly clumsy and flustered footwork had evaded the wooden sword.

At this point, the spectating students had fallen so silent that even their heartbeats could be heard.

A new junior brother who had never done kendo before had actually effortlessly avoided Senior Sister Su the Demon Lord's consecutive attacks?

This was just too unbelievable!

Retreating two steps, Chen Shuo steadied his footing. "I'm not wearing any protective gear. Why are you attacking my neck?"

"Looks like it's time I showed you my prowess!"

Su Xiyan's voice remained frosty. "Less nonsense! Come at me!"

After all, this was the kendo club's space. It would be going overboard to utterly humiliate them. Although Chen Shuo said he would show Su Xiyan his capabilities, his main goal was still to dodge and evade rather than attack.

On the other hand, every move Su Xiyan made was like thunder, aiming for Chen Shuo's weak points.

Chen Shuo retreated step by step until he was almost forced to the very edge of the arena by Su Xiyan.

Victory was at hand! A faint smile flashed across Su Xiyan's mouth.

Unexpectedly, at the instant he was about to be forced out of bounds, Chen Shuo suddenly spun on his foot and repositioned himself back at the center of the arena.

Su Xiyan had put all her strength into that strike, but ended up hitting only air.

If she couldn't stop her momentum in time, next she would land in a rather ungraceful pose.

Just when Su Xiyan felt her body was about to crash onto the floor.

A force suddenly came around her waist.

Her downward momentum was also stopped.

She managed to steady herself and remain on her feet.

However, due to inertia and her posture, the protective headgear she was wearing clattered onto the ground with a thud.

Coming to her senses, Su Xiyan realized Chen Shuo had grabbed her slender waist.

Their faces were extremely close in this moment.

Su Xiyan's waist was pressed tightly against Chen Shuo's arm. Even through the thick protective gear, she could feel the strength in Chen Shuo's arm.

But who gave him permission to grab her waist?

Taking undue liberties!!

The students present all had their mouths wide open, stunned motionless for some time.

The normally aloof and cold Senior Sister Su had not only failed to defeat a new junior brother, she had even nearly lost her composure? She had even gotten her waist grabbed by the junior brother?

The male students who had joined the kendo club due to Su Xiyan's fame as a campus belle felt their broken dreams and hopes shatter into smaller pieces.

Ever since joining in her freshman year, Su Xiyan had been an invincible existence in the kendo club for three years.

Nobody expected her unbeaten record would end today.

Although it was a picturesque scene straight out of an idol drama, the atmosphere between Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo was somewhat awkward.

Su Xiyan and Chen Shuo's eyes met. She lowered her voice and squeezed out a few words from between gritted teeth, "Who allowed you to use your vampire skills?"

Since there were other students around, Chen Shuo also kept his voice to the lowest volume, just enough for the two of them to hear. "Who said I used any vampire skills?"

Su Xiyan didn't believe him. "Liar."

Chen Shuo helplessly said, "You're a demon hunter. Whether or not I used any vampire skills, shouldn't you be able to sense it? Besides, I'm at Nanli University right now. If I dared to use any vampire abilities, wouldn't I have long been detected by your demon hunter organization?"

What Chen Shuo said made a lot of sense. Su Xiyan couldn't think of anything to retort with for the moment.

After all, what Chen Shuo said was the truth.

As long as Su Xiyan was present, his system would be in a disabled state.

This unusually swift dodging reaction was merely the effect of the strength-enhancing potion Chen Shuo had drunk previously.

Of course, this was a secret that couldn't be told to Su Xiyan.

Su Xiyan's face kept alternating between red and pale as she gnashed her teeth. "Aren't you going to let me go yet?!"

Only then did Chen Shuo realize he had been holding Su Xiyan's slender waist the entire time.

He wondered what it would feel like to have such close contact with her waist. The kendo club's protective gear was pretty thick and obstructing.

With the heavy protective gear in the way, there was no sense of touch at all.

If he had known, he wouldn't have grabbed her waist.

Seeing that Chen Shuo was still spacing out, not knowing what he was thinking about, Su Xiyan didn't want to keep being watched like this. Her voice rose several degrees,

"Let go!!"

Snapping back to awareness, Chen Shuo said "Oh? Okay."

Right after his words fell, he promptly withdrew his hand.

With a thud, having lost her support, Su Xiyan heavily crashed onto the ground.

Su Xiyan: "......?!"

All the students present: "......w(゚Д゚)w"

This junior brother really had skill. Senior Sister told him to let go and he actually really let go.

In that instant, Chen Shuo became the supreme idol in the eyes of everyone present.

Su Xiyan swiftly stood up from the ground and coldly ordered the spectating students behind her, "What are you gawking for?! Hurry and go train!"

The frightened students shuddered and hurriedly put on their gear, grabbed their wooden swords, and threw themselves into grueling training.

Su Xiyan bent her left arm to hold her headgear, wooden sword in her right hand. She strode towards the changing room with quick steps.

Was she angry? Standing at the edge of the arena, Chen Shuo felt he was truly innocent.
