You better remember this!
"What's the principle behind this?" Jiang Shaoxu asked in confusion, sheathing his sword and tentatively slashing at his own hand.
It's okay.
A little poking in the stomach, it's nothing.
It's okay to poke your head.
"???"
Nan Jue's eye twitched violently.
No, little sister, do you really want to play something so exciting?
What if something goes wrong?
Noticing the gazes gathering from all around, Jiang Shaoxu awkwardly sheathed her sword.
"This is actually... magic! Yes! Magic!"
"It's an amazing magic trick, isn't it?"
"..."
……
After spending some more time in Egypt, the National Team finally received a message from their mentor.
After repeated investigations by the three continental magic associations, it was confirmed that the Sahara had quieted down and showed no signs of expansion, and the World University Tournament proceeded as normal.
Having already obtained enough national pavilion badges during their previous training, Lü Cheng led the National Pavilion team to Venice after bidding farewell to Xin Xia.
As usual, the moment they arrived in Venice, Jiang Shaoxu pulled all the girls in the group away, leaving none for Lü Cheng.
"If I were you, I'd shamelessly go over there," Mo Fan said.
Lu Cheng rolled his eyes at Mo Fan.
Zhao Manyan patted Mo Fan helplessly, "You really don't understand women. There are some private spaces that you can't just barge into. And being shameless is something you have to wait for the right time."
"You... never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
Aside from rescuing Bai Tingting and successfully flirting with her back then, Mo Fan has never successfully hooked up with a girl. Although a large part of the reason is that Lü Cheng's brilliance is too dazzling, Mo Fan's own personality also has major problems.
Simply put, Lü Cheng's feelings came first, then everything else, while Mo Fan's was all about sex from the start! He was even more vulgar than Lü Cheng!
"Very well, now that we're here, I'll entertain you!"
With a wave of his hand, Zhao Manyan led Lü Cheng and Mo Fan onto the water beast and set off towards St. Mark's Square.
……
"You and your brother don't seem to get along very well?"
The Saint Mark's World Auction Hall of Fame.
Zhao Manyan, who was full of confidence and brought Lü Cheng and Mo Fan over, ready to show off his wealth and treat them well, was embarrassed to be left out by his own brother.
And judging from his appearance, he's quite skilled!
"Pretty much," Zhao Manyan said with a hint of helplessness.
“I’ve always been invisible at home since I was a child. If it weren’t for this magical talent that could somewhat make up for the fact that our Zhao family doesn’t produce many powerful mages, I probably would have disappeared and no one would have cared.”
Mo Fan's eye twitched. "You're acting all miserable now? Do you know how envious I am of someone like you who's got money as much as an idiot and can squander it all in a lifetime?"
"You bitch, ever since that incident at the stadium, I've been on your pirate ship! No matter how rich I am, I need to be alive to spend it!" Zhao Manyan said angrily.
As they spoke, Zhao Manyan led the two to the most upscale guest room in the Zhao family home.
The overwhelming luxury left Mo Fan completely dumbfounded.
The lives of the rich are truly unreasonable!
The palace!
"Sir, we only accept guests by appointment. Please move to the next room." A woman in a rippled blue dress walked over and said with a smile.
“I am Zhao Youqian’s younger brother,” Zhao Manyan said.
“I’m sorry, Chairman Zhao instructed that this place must be reserved for that distinguished guest,” the woman in the blue dress insisted.
Mo Fan couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Manyan's face turned black!
Hey!
He usually feels invisible when he's with these monsters, but now that he's finally on his home turf, they're still giving him no face.
Perhaps years of pent-up frustration were finally ignited by the embarrassment before him. Zhao Manyan sat down on the sofa in a fit of anger. "I'm sitting right here today. I want to see if Zhao Youqian will kick me out!"
Seeing this, Mo Fan was somewhat surprised. In his impression, although Zhao Manyan was an idiot, he was not the kind of person who would care about such a show, much less throw a tantrum for the sake of face.
"Why are you doing this? It's all your own business. A guest that Chairman Zhao would specially go to greet must be very important, you..."
"I thought you didn't recognize me?" Zhao Manyan interrupted.
"Let me tell you! I don't care about this lousy palace guest room, but that bastard Zhao Youqian gave me attitude. He's my older brother, so I put up with it. Who do you think you are!"
When the woman in the blue dress saw Zhao Manyan turn her attention to her, her face turned pale, but she didn't say anything more. Instead, she instructed the other staff to move the room's facilities to the adjacent guest room.
"Put out all the good food and drinks for me! Go and rearrange it yourself!" Zhao Manyan said coldly.
Seeing Zhao Manyan's attitude, the woman in the blue dress stopped lingering and turned to leave.
He is, after all, the second son of the Zhao family; we cannot afford to offend him.
Mo Fan was somewhat surprised to see Zhao Manyan's arrogant and spoiled demeanor for the first time. "Do you have a grudge against her?"
“I have no grudge against them, but I’m just annoyed by their attitude of treating me like I don’t exist!” Zhao Manyan said.
"Before, I just lazed around doing nothing and got the cold shoulder. But now I'm a legitimate high-level mage, a member of the National Team! I'm a rising star!"
"And I... um? Where's the captain?"
Zhao Manyan was taken aback, suddenly realizing that Lü Cheng, who had been in the room just moments before, had vanished.
“He left while you were arguing with that woman,” Mo Fan said.
"Gone?" Zhao Manyan was taken aback.
"Oh, don't worry about it, that's just how he is." Mo Fan picked up a bunch of grapes and started eating.
"He can't stand being in a place where people are arguing for even a second. But if it's somewhere else, once he releases that chilling pressure, the people will quiet down in no time."
"Today is your day, and he's giving you face, so he'll just go out for a stroll."
"Damn it!" Zhao Manyan's face darkened.
He rarely brings friends to his own place to entertain them, and this is what he gets!
but……
"Are you crazy?" Mo Fan looked at Zhao Manyan, who had a strange smile on his face, with suspicion.
"Screw you!" Zhao Manyan picked up the red wine and poured himself a glass.
"I'm just curious how the clan association and my father would react if they knew that Lü Cheng was being ignored here, or even indirectly kicked out."
"Tsk! Just thinking about it is interesting!"
Previously, Lü Cheng had trouble with his connections in China, and even the Zhao family couldn't get any specific information about him. They guessed that it was most likely related to the military.
The Zhao family's businesses span the globe, and their attitude towards Lü Cheng was merely to win him over, not to take him seriously; as long as they didn't offend him, that was enough.
But after Lü Cheng took out the Dissenting Tribunal Badge some time ago, its meaning changed!
No matter how powerful the Zhao family is, their power is still within the rules, the Court of Judgment.
Neither the Magic Associations of the Five Continents nor the Holy Inquisition can control the Arbitrator!
"I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of expressions they'll make."
Chapter 207: You Can Have Anything You Want
209.
……
In the exhibition corridor not far from the guest room, Lü Cheng was strolling around and visiting.
In fact, he had been here many years ago. Ye Chang had taken him to almost all of Europe, where they visited countless magical civilizations, including the final venue of the World University Tournament.
"Do you remember this place?"
A beautiful and melodious voice quietly appeared behind me.
“I remember, you know I have a very good memory, I can almost remember everything I see,” Lü Cheng said.
Before the outbreak of righteous magic, the biggest impact of this unfortunate man's identity as a descendant of an immortal god was a bunch of bad luck, but also this terrifying memory. Of course, it was only after he died once and came to this magical world that this talent gradually became apparent.
Perhaps it was because of this magical world that his mental power could be used normally, which led to the enhancement of his memory.
