When did you go blind?

After everyone had gathered, Qian Kun announced the list of participants for today's challenge match. The battle between Tang Miao and Ouyang Yuan was the grand finale.

As the audience arrived in waves, the Thunder Court's grounds seemed to be struggling to accommodate everyone. Although Qian Kun and Sun Yuan were eager to have Tang Miao and Ouyang Yuan fight immediately to finish early and disperse, Dean Xiao had arrived. Since the announcement originated from them, delaying the match would offend quite a few people.

In the end, there was nothing to do but leave it to fate.

Meanwhile, on the grounds of Pearl Academy.

Quite a few people were still rushing towards the Thunder Element Academy after hearing the news, and many were discussing the matter.

Many others, however, stopped in their tracks, gazing foolishly at two girls walking into the academy, their faces filled with infatuation.

One of them, wearing a floral dress and boasting a pair of prominent bosoms that seemed to defy gravity, stood out from the crowd. Her looks weren't top-tier but were certainly considered upper-class.

The other wore a black V-neck dress. While her chest wasn't as exaggerated, her stunningly beautiful face, combined with her alluring and captivating figure, drew the attention of every male present.

"Sister Mu, this Pearl Academy is quite nice~ Look at all these handsome guys!"

The girl with the large chest bounced along, looking around and giggling.

Mu Nujiao, following her, helplessly reached out and pulled her back, feeling a bit embarrassed. She chided her softly, "Ai Tutu, can't you be a little more reserved...?"

"Hehe..."

Ai Tutu chuckled and then said, "Handsome young men look at you with affection. But when they look at me, they're just a bunch of perverts! So, you can be reserved, but I can't. Otherwise, I'll never find a good husband~"

Mu Nujiao's face darkened. She then said, "Alright, we've visited Pearl Academy."

"What's the rush? The college entrance exam is almost here. After it's over, we'll be a part of this place~"

Ai Tutu admired the clean-cut youths around them, showing no intention of leaving soon.

Mu Nujiao regretted agreeing to come with her. This was simply too awkward...

When Ai Tutu noticed the crowd surging towards one area, she became curious.

She then found a guy with glasses and asked, "Handsome guy, is there a special event at your school today? Why are so many people heading that way?"

As Ai Tutu approached, the guy with glasses was lost in a daze, his mind filled with bouncing white rabbits. He answered somewhat hazily, "There's a challenge match at the Thunder Court today, and it's someone ranked 100 challenging the first place..."

After getting the information she wanted, Ai Tutu turned and left. Only after the girl with the large chest had gone did the guy with glasses realize he hadn't even asked for her name.

Ai Tutu walked back to Mu Nujiao and told her what she had learned. Then, she pulled Mu Nujiao towards the Thunder Court. She wasn't particularly interested in the competition itself; it was mainly because the guy with glasses had mentioned the large crowd!

Wouldn't that mean there were many handsome young men there for her to choose from? How could she not be interested in that?

Mu Nujiao, on the other hand, was interested in the battle. A Mage at Intermediate Level 1 challenging the Dual Element perfected first-ranked opponent – how could she not be curious? This was why Ai Tutu had dragged her here.

When the two arrived at the Thunder Court, they saw that it was already packed with over a thousand people. And it seemed that even after them, more people were still arriving.

Ai Tutu scanned the area, found some seats, and then led Mu Nujiao to them.

"Hey, hey, hey, handsome guy, has the match to challenge the first place started yet?" she asked, looking at people already fighting below.

Hearing her, the person turned around. Upon seeing her, he froze for three seconds. Ai Tutu was used to this; after all, it was her innate advantage.

"Not yet. It'll be at least another hour before it starts." Tang Miao glanced at the girl with the large chest for a moment, then looked at the woman beside her. However, he only gave them a cursory glance before returning his attention to the ongoing challenge matches below.

After receiving her answer, just as Ai Tutu was about to ask something else, she saw Tang Miao turn his gaze back to the arena. She couldn't help but feel curious and whispered to Mu Nujiao, "Sister Mu, Sister Mu, this guy isn't interested in us at all~!"

Mu Nujiao paused. She glanced at Tang Miao, and seeing that he wasn't looking their way, she gently patted Ai Tutu and said, "Just focus on the challenge match!"

Feeling a bit bored, Ai Tutu moved closer to Tang Miao. Her large chest inadvertently bumped into him.

Tang Miao turned his head and said, "If you bump me with those again, I'll pull out my gun."

Ai Tutu certainly hadn't meant to. After all, she wasn't that bold yet; she had just shifted her position too much. Hearing Tang Miao's teasing remark, her small face flushed red. "Pfft, pervert~ I didn't do it on purpose!"

With that, Ai Tutu quickly moved back.

It had to be said that her clothing was also partly to blame for what happened! Mu Nujiao looked at Ai Tutu, who had retreated beside her with a red face, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"N-nothing!"

Ai Tutu was so embarrassed right now that she couldn't bring herself to say anything.

Mu Nujiao didn't ask further. She glanced at Tang Miao again, but seeing that his gaze was fixed on the arena, she assumed Ai Tutu was just being clumsy.

Ai Tutu's shyness lasted only a moment. Then, she started chatting with Tang Miao again, completely forgetting about what had just happened. Seeing how chatty she was and how she even revealed personal details, Tang Miao decided to chat with her.

Honestly, he hadn't expected to meet Ai Tutu and Mu Nujiao before the college entrance exam was even over and before they started recruiting new students!

After chatting with Tang Miao for a while, Ai Tutu said, "Are there any single, handsome guys in your Thunder Element Academy? Introduce a few to me!"

Tang Miao frowned upon hearing this. "When did you go blind?"

Ai Tutu pouted slightly, displeased. "I just asked you to introduce some handsome guys to me, why are you scolding me?"

"The most handsome man in all of Pearl Academy is standing right in front of you, and you're asking me about other handsome guys?"

Upon hearing Tang Miao's words, Ai Tutu froze. Then, she couldn't help but laugh in exasperation. This was the first time she had ever met someone so narcissistic.

Tang Miao was tall and well-built, and his looks were average. But in her eyes, "handsome" was almost the opposite of him. The only reason she could banter with him for so long was that he was quite amusing.

"Why are you so narcissistic?"

Tang Miao turned his head to look at the arena and said without looking back, "I don't like talking to girls who are blind. If you want to chat, you can pay for a day."
