Not Handsome Enough...

Feng Ao Xiu mouth twitched as if he was holding down some words. He forced a smile and asked back, "Su Mei, are you worried you can't find a husband?"

Su Mei nodded, "Mom said Su Mei must find and marry a handsome man!"

Feng Ao Xiu who was jealous to Elder Ning decided to lie, "Too bad, that Elder Ning is an evil person. You absolutely can't marry him, otherwise your parents will be sad. But, don't worry, after you grew, you can marry this big brother instead."

Su Mei blinked several times, fixed her gaze on Feng Ao Xiu, before she said, "Big brother is not handsome enough... Su Mei will just find another husband then."

[Not... Not handsome enough...] Feng Ao Xiu eyes twitched. He wanted to curse out loud, but held back because his opponent was only a five years old little girl.

Su Mei still continued to stare at him, then she said, "Don't be sad... If Su Mei can't find a husband, Su Mei will marry big brother."

"Really?"

Su Mei smiled, "Because big brother is really kind!"

Feng Ao Xiu laughed. He carefully patted on the little girl's head for cheering him on. There's no need to be so concerned about the little girl's remark about your face. What matter is if she cared for you, and she did. For Feng Ao Xiu, it's already more than enough.

With the little girl's inspiration, Feng Ao Xiu regained his motivation back. He needed to train Su Mei strong enough, so she can pass the test.

"Su Mei, what's your number?"

Su Mei handed him the piece of paper. Feng Ao Xiu smiled as he stared at the number inside. "Number 417, not bad... It's just right before me!"

At this time, Jing Wu Chu ran towards Feng Ao Xiu. "Young master, help me!"

It was a rare occasion that she called Feng Ao Xiu as a young master since she found out his true strength, something must have happened. Feng Ao Xiu asked her to calm down and speak slowly.

"Young master, you have to help me. My turn is coming up soon. But, with the judges being so biased against us, how am I going to pass? Even Fang Ye Na's acceptance has not been decided yet."

"You do not need to mind it." Feng Ao Xiu quickly replied. "We only need to be concerned on whether Su Mei can pass the test or not. Since, this is the last test, there's no need for us to accompany her any longer."

"But... I decided to stay!", said Jing Wu Chu.

"Eeeehh... Stay?"

"Young master, ever since I know the truth, you know I won't follow you forever. Especially after I got into the bad side of Madam Xue Yi. Yet, I still followed you because I have no other option left." said Jing Wu Chu. "I think it is fate that I somehow enrolled in this test. I believe that my future lies within the Cloud Moon Palace..."

Feng Ao Xiu became silent. He never thought about what Jing Wu Chu wants, and only just knew about it. Although, he didn't remember it, they have shared a bed together. He thought that she will stay with him for a long time. In the end, Feng Ao Xiu's broken meridian came into play. Feng Ao Xiu did not deserve Jing Wu Chu.

"Are... Are you sure?"

Jing Wu Chu did not answer, but she slowly nodded.

Feng Ao Xiu smiled softly, "All right, I'll help you..."

"Really?! Thank you, young master!!"

Feng Ao Xiu quickly found out that Jing Wu Chu's number was 180. Currently, it was still number 120, but with the number always skipped, it won't be surprising that her turn will come up after another twenty people.

Jing Wu Chu only have a small amount of time frame left for her preparation. However, Feng Ao Xiu was not worried at all.

"You still can control the Qi Protectors, right?" asked Feng Ao Xiu.

Jing Wu Chu quickly nodded in reply.

"Then, the only problem is the biased judges..." Feng Ao Xiu said. "There's no other way. You have to defeat your opponent. That way, they won't have any excuses for not accepting you!"

"How am I going to do that? The Qi Protectors are only good at defences, not attacking..." asked Jing Wu Chu.

Feng Ao Xiu slowly whispered into Jing Wu Chu's ear.

"That is..."

"Number 180, please come to the ring!"

As soon as Elder Zhou noticed that it was Jing Wu Chu, one of Feng Zhi Yan's lackey, he quickly gave a signal.

Just like what happened with Fang Ye Na, the senior pretended to be sick. "Aaahhh... My knee hurts!"

"Let me see... Aiyaa... It really is bad! Quickly go rest, I'll handle this one for you!" said an elder.

Actually, Elder Ning noticed the bad acting, and he wanted to prevent the conspiracy from happening. However, after he noticed that the one being evaluated was the crazy girl, he stayed silent.

Just like that, everyone blatantly witnessed the show. However, since they could not do anything about it, they just stayed in silent while pitying Jing Wu Chu. It was just her bad luck for being Feng Zhi Yan's friend.

Jing Wu Chu was unfazed at all. She was already prepared to be at such disadvantage.

The match began, and the elder did not hesitate to make the first move. He jumped up high, and attacked Jing Wu Chu from above. His palm heading straight to the target's skull.

The enemy already made such a big move, but Jing Wu Chu remained in the same spot without any signs of dodging at all.

* Bammm... *

His palm crashed straight on top Jing Wu Chu's head. The shock made dusts rises up in the air blocking the view of the impact from everyone.

As the dust falls down, and it all cleared up, everyone was in shock. The girl, Jing Wu Chu, should have her skull broken. However, there was no blood nor injuries of any kind. She was perfectly fine as if nothing happened.

"Aaaaaarrrggghhh..."

The elder, on the other hand, yelled out in excruciating pain. His right hand, which he used for a palm strike, has become swollen. Blood gushes out from his palm without any intention of stopping. It was as if he just hit a steel concrete.

"Elder, is that all you have?" said Jing Wu Chu. "C'mon hit me again!!"

The elder became enraged, he was mocked by a girl younger than his granddaughter. How could he accept this?

Ignoring the pain in his right hand, he quickly jumped to the side and launch a kick. They thought, this time, for sure, Jing Wu Chu's arm going to break.

* Crack... *

Indeed, they heard the sound of bones breaking. However, outside of everyone's expectation, it was not coming from Jing Wu Chu's arm. Just by seeing the elder's left leg bending in a way it was not supposed to bend, they know it was coming from the elder's leg instead.

How could this have happened? What did that girl do? She basically did nothing.

For Feng Ao Xiu and the others, it was only natural that this would happen. The Qi Protectors would always protect their host. Moreover, the Qi protectors who used to protect such a large door, now moved to a much smaller Jing Wu Chu, it became denser and could protect its host more effectively. It was no wonder that she was left uninjured.

Another unique trait of the Qi Protectors is that the stronger the force, the more backlash you receive. If a Power Soul realm cultivator hit Jing Wu Chu, it would only mean that nothing happened. But for a strong person like the Elder, he received backlash for the strong attack he launched, injuring his own hand and leg in the process.

The only way to defeat the Qi Protector was to launch an even stronger force. Luckily, the Elder was not strong enough to penetrate through the dense Qi Protectors. However, without all this knowledge, the elder left confused and afraid.

"C'mon, hit me again!" said Jing Wu Chu.

"...", Unlike the previous, this time the elder became wary. He could not attack Jing Wu Chu recklessly unless he wanted the rest of his limb to be broken as well.

"Elder, you're not attacking!" said Jing Wu Chu. "If not, then it's my turn to attack. Please forgive me in advance that I may break your arms and leg."

"Wait... Wait... Stay back!!" The elder shrieked.

Jing Wu Chu did not say anything and slowly walk towards him.

"Stay back! I said, stay back!!" The elder continued to yell.

Jing Wu Chu stepped closer and closer.

"Ahhh... Aaaahhh... Stop! Stop! I admit defeat! I admit defeat!"

Just like that, Jing Wu Chu won without doing any real attack. It was all going according to Feng Ao Xiu's plan.

***

About an hour ago.

"Young master, you're telling me to bluff?" asked Jing Wu Chu.

"That's right. As you already know, Qi Protectors were not made for attacking. Even if you attack, your opponent won't feel anything since you're still in the Power Soul Realm.", said Feng Ao Xiu. "That's why you just have to mock your opponent, so they attack you recklessly and break their limbs. After that, you just have to act that you have enough power to crush him."

Jing Wu Chu tapped on her chest, "All right! I'm very good at acting. I'll do it!"
