Without realizing it, had he already drawn this much hatred...

Looking at the three furious girls, Fang Xuan, brimming with hatred, somehow felt full of energy.

Beautiful women... were made to be cut down!

"Blade Drawing Technique—Glacial Cold!"

Knowing there was no peaceful resolution to today's matter, Fang Xuan drew upon the remnants of Soul Power within him and exhausted all his strength to barely unleash the Blade of Glacial Cold once.

A vast torrent of icy frost surged forth and slammed fiercely into the ground with an earth-shaking boom. White freezing mist and yellow-brown dust shot into the sky, obscuring the girls' vision.

"Damn it! I can't see anything!"

Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Daier were both angry and frustrated, trapped by the smoke Fang Xuan had created.

Before long, once the smoke dispersed, Fang Xuan was already nowhere to be seen.

"Fang Xuan, you bastard! I'll never let you off!"

A clear, furious cry echoed through the sky.

Heaven Dou Academy, rear mountain stream!

"Women are fiercer than tigers..."

Fang Xuan collapsed by the stream, exhausted, and finally let out a breath of relief.

Luckily, he had escaped in the end. If he had fallen into the hands of those ruthless women led by Dugu Yan, he would probably have been tortured to death. The thought still made him shudder.

Thanks to Dugu Yan and the others, he could not even go home now.

"Where did that scumbag Fang run off to?!"

"Quick, search everywhere!"

"Whoever catches Fang Xuan gets to go on a date with the three goddesses!"

"Haha, don't even think about competing with me! That scumbag Fang Xuan will be my finest gift to the goddesses!"

A burst of excited discussion suddenly came from nearby, making Fang Xuan's newly settled heart leap into his throat again.

Following the voices, he saw a group of people rushing toward the rear mountain.

There were around a dozen of them, all Soul Elders. Every one of them radiated a powerful aura; they were all seed members of Heaven Dou Academy's Heaven Dou Class!

Fang Xuan's lips twitched when he saw them coming.

Even at his peak, facing over a dozen Soul Elders would have left him with nothing but a beating. Now that his Soul Power was depleted and his physical strength exhausted, he could only be utterly crushed.

"Damn it! Those girls are truly shameless, using their beauty as bait to rally the entire academy to capture me!" Fang Xuan said indignantly.

After a moment's thought, he realized that Dugu Yan and the others must have used their immense influence to mobilize all the students to hunt him down!

That method was simply too despicable!

"You idiots blinded by lust, I curse you all to stay single for the rest of your lives!" Fang Xuan cursed under his breath. He hurriedly climbed up from the stream bank and quietly hid in a nearby ancient tree, evading the pursuit.

If those fools whose eyes had turned red from beauty caught him, he would probably be torn apart alive!

"Huh? How strange. I clearly saw that scumbag Fang run this way. Where did he hide..."

The dozen or so young Soul Elders began searching the rear mountain, carefully looking for Fang Xuan.

"No one can stop me from dating the goddess! Dugu Yan belongs to me!"

A lecherous fat man with a bloated body and a face full of flesh drooled as his tiny eyes gleamed. While searching for Fang Xuan, he fantasized about dating Dugu Yan, his saliva trailing all the way to the ground.

Everyone knew Dugu Yan was Yu Tianheng's girlfriend, yet this lecherous fatty still lusted after her.

What terrible taste. Truly terrible taste!

"Fang Xuan, Fang Xuan, I really have to thank you. Without you, how could I have such a wonderful chance? The academy's three goddesses, all for me to choose from. Hehe..."

The lecherous fatty seemed tired, so he walked beneath a large tree to rest. Muttering to himself, he said, "For this lord's happiness, Fang Xuan, get into the pot already!"

He happily indulged in his daydream, his fat face habitually tilting upward...

Then a large foot descended from the tree and slammed hard into his face.

"Ow! That hurts like hell! Which blind bastard was that?!"

The lecherous fatty was stomped straight into the ground. Blood spurted wildly from his mouth and nose as he screamed on the ground.

"Fatty, I really would like to grant your wish, but unfortunately, I have no plans to offer myself up as a tribute!"

Fang Xuan planted a foot on the lecherous fatty's face, directly stomping the young Soul Elder senseless.

Honestly, he really wanted to see the ridiculous sight of Dugu Yan going on a date with this lecherous fatty. That proud snake woman would probably be furious enough to twist her nose crooked.

Green Tianheng would probably explode even more.

But he was in no mood to disgust Dugu Yan right now. More than a dozen Soul Elders nearby were eyeing him like tigers, and the most important thing for him at the moment was—escape!

After taking down one Soul Elder with a kick, Fang Xuan did not linger. He stomped hard on the ground with his right foot, launched himself into the air, and swiftly fled northwest.

"He's here! That scumbag Fang has shown himself!"

"Quick! Don't let that bastard get away!"

"Get him together!"

The dozen young Soul Elders all went red-eyed and chased after the fleeing Fang Xuan like madmen. This concerned their dates with the goddesses—it was worth risking their lives for!

"Fang Xuan! If you've got guts, stop running! Let's fight three hundred rounds!"

A blond youth clung tightly to Fang Xuan's heels, shouting provocations at the top of his lungs.

Fang Xuan rolled his eyes when he heard that. Fight three hundred rounds against more than a dozen Soul Elders by himself? Was he on the wrong medicine?

He had no time to deal with that idiot. He accelerated and fled desperately, preparing to shake off this troublesome bunch as quickly as possible.

"Coward! Scum! All you know is how to run..."

Seeing that their verbal attacks had no effect, the students instantly unleashed their Martial Souls and displayed all sorts of abilities.

Some spat flames, some spewed torrents of water, and some even threw out their hoe Martial Souls. In order to capture Fang Xuan, they truly spared no effort.

After the barrage of attacks, Fang Xuan's face was covered in dust, his clothes were tattered, and even the hair on the left side of his head had been scorched away. Though he had not suffered any substantial injuries, he looked utterly miserable, and he was furious inside.

"Damn it, you bastards!"

Fang Xuan's expression darkened. When he reached a boulder, he suddenly stopped, gripped the hilt of his blade tightly, and unleashed a Blade Slash that sent two or three nearby Soul Elders flying.

Then he continued fleeing without even looking back.

That Blade Drawing Technique had instantly depleted the Soul Power he had painstakingly gathered, but it had at least given those arrogant bastards a taste of their own medicine and vented some of his anger.

For an entire day, Fang Xuan was hunted all over the academy by more than four hundred male students. It was not until late at night, when he hid in a secluded cave, that he finally escaped everyone's pursuit.

This whole mess had been stirred up by Dugu Yan alone. Fang Xuan felt that he had to teach that snake woman an unforgettable lesson.

As the art of war said: flee by day, raid the camp by night!

Fang Xuan sat cross-legged inside the cave, quietly meditating and resting to replenish his depleted Soul Power. Once his Soul Power recovered, he would go... raid the camp!

No internet for ten whole days. Damn, that felt great...

Also, there are so few Recommendation Tickets—only a dozen or so a day. Big shots, please send some tickets. I'm starving!
