Chapter 671 - INSUFFERABLE
THE one who spoke was one of the five girls who made it to the final tournament. She had long black hair surrounded by rose vines. The slightly pointed ears showed that her race must be at least considered as 'rare'. But Luo Yan couldn't be sure what it could be.
The white dress she was wearing was a tad bit too revealing. With plunging neckline and slits on both side of the flowing skirt. Because of that, a lot of her skin was exposed. One would think that she was there to attend the party instead of fighting.
Don't get him wrong, Luo Yan not one of those people who thought that women should not wear revealing clothes. Whether it's a guy or a girl, anyone could wear whatever the hell they wanted. As long as they were not forced into it and they picked it themselves.
The problem here was, they were about to fight in a one-on-one battle. Doing so in such a dress, she would flash the important bits and pieces that should be covered. Although this was not their real body, their avatars were still close to how a real body looked like. So, yes, it would be kind of awkward fighting someone when their bits were flashing at you.
Unless, of course, this girl was planning to fight without ever moving from the same spot. That could certainly work. Or maybe this was her way to distract whoever her opponents would be. And then strike that opponent while they were distracted looking at her bits.
He could think of a lot of strategies worse than that, but, who knows, it might work. After all, most of the participants here were probably teenagers or just graduated from being a teenager. They still had raging hormones that could get in the way of their decision making.
But whatever, it's not like this was any of his business. Because he was sure that he would not get affected even if this girl went full blown naked in front of him right now. How could he be affected when he had Shen Ji Yun, that gorgeous male specimen? Maybe if his adorable cinnamon roll was the one to appear in front of him naked, he might just hyperventilate and faint.
Anyway, aside from this girl's questionable taste in costume, the other was also obviously very antagonistic towards Luo Yan. It was not just the tone of her voice when she said what she just said. It's how she was looking at him. It was a mixture of a lot of negative things.
A gloating expression as if he was looking down on him. But underneath those eyes that was like shouting 'I am better than you' were feelings of envy and jealousy. There was even anger there.
Luo Yan raised one of his brows. He hadn't remembered offending this girl. He was too busy doing the hidden task and doing training that he didn't have time to actually offend anyone. He could only think of one reason – this girl simply couldn't accept that he was much more beautiful than her.
Honestly, how could he blame her for that? So, of course, he had to response to her provocation about how it must be great to have Shen Ji Yun wrap around his finger. Right?
Luo Yan acted shock and said in a surprise tone, "Wow. How did you know?" Then he smiled sweetly. "It really is such a great feeling."
The girl's face turned all red in anger. If she could shoot laser from her eyes, she probably already did because of the way she was glaring at him. In response, Luo Yan smiled even more sweetly.
Some in the room let out a chuckle after witnessing what happened. Which made the girl even more embarrassed.
"What are you so proud about?" she retorted, barely controlling her anger. "Is it fun leeching off of others?"
"Wow. Your thought process really just zigzagged from point A to point Z," Luo Jin commented in a mocking tone. "How did you go off from thinking he was proud to accusing him of being a leech? There must be a road map with a lot of u-turn inside that head of yours. That's why you can make all sorts of assumption in a second."
"You shouldn't say that, Young Master Jin," Luo Yan said as if he was really trying to scold Luo Jin. "Look at the poor girl, her face was so red! What if she faints?" he added with indignation. "I, for one, don't think that she has a road map in her head. I think she's just… full of imagination."
Luo Jin gave his brother a sideway glance and just resisted the urge to roll his eyes. He looked at the girl who looked like her face would actually turn into purple any second now. She's probably madder at what Luo Yan said instead of what he said.
He no longer cared about the girl since she was obviously no match for his brother. So, he turned back his gaze to Luo Yan and said, "Don't call me 'young master'."
Luo Yan only grinned as an answer.
Being suddenly ignored after being insulted, the girl – Ding Rong – almost rushed towards the moon elf and attacked him. She just couldn't accept everything about this person. Someone so shameless didn't deserve to stand beside YUN.
She was about to say something scathing when someone beat her to it.
"Stop, will you?" said the dark elf, looking at her and stopping her from speaking. "If you can't stand him, go fight him on the ring. Beat him up all you want, we don't care. Just don't make a scene here. It's embarrassing."
Luo Yan glanced at Ying Chen with interest when he heard what the other said. "Well, her beating me up is kind of debatable. Because I know I would win."
Ying Chen also glanced at Luo Yan with a look that's saying 'you're insufferable'.
Ding Rong, on the other hand, was really on the verge of attacking the moon elf. But that thought halted when a virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of them.
It said;
