Chapter 254 Can martial arts achievements represent everything?
Chen Lie pushed open the door and walked into the side room.
As soon as I entered, I saw Ruan Liusu in the side room.
He suddenly felt a sense of unease.
I think I've seen this girl with the fish-whisker-like hair and high ponytail before, at the Three Provinces Martial Arts Tournament. She even took the initiative to talk to me.
Are you from the Jiangsu Province's "Genius Group"? How do you know yourself?
Ruan Liusu saw Chen Lie and was about to speak when a thought suddenly struck her: she wanted to test Chen Lie's martial arts skills.
However, although the private room was large, it was less than 200 square meters, which was definitely not enough space to move around freely. So she released her extreme pressure.
As a member of the top twenty geniuses in Jiangsu Province on Earth, she is proficient in more than one S-level martial art, and has also learned an SS-level one.
Her advanced martial arts skills made her strength far exceed that of her peers, and her extreme pressure was naturally much stronger.
Ruan Liusu circulated her qi and blood at an extreme speed, controlling the pressure of the extreme realm, and pressed down on Chen Lie.
"Um?
Chen Lie also sensed the desire of the girl opposite him. His strength had reached an astonishing twelve times, and he had also cultivated the "Dragon Nirvana Technique," a top-level martial arts secret technique of the Central Galaxy Empire. Naturally, he was not afraid of this extreme pressure.
He guessed that this proud young woman from southern Jiangsu Province might be trying to give him a hard time.
Chen Lie, of course, wouldn't tolerate her. He released his extreme pressure, instantly overwhelming Ruan Liusu.
Ruan Liusu looked startled, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief as she looked at Chen Lie.
His extreme pressure was actually stronger than mine?
In just a moment, Chen Lie and Ruan Liusu withdrew their respective extreme pressure.
Ruan Liusu took the initiative to greet Chen Lie: "Chen Lie? Hello, now we can have a proper talk, please have a seat!"
Seeing that Ruan Liusu's attitude had improved, Chen Lie nodded calmly and sat down opposite her.
"I remember you said your name was Ruan Liusu? Did you send me here?"
Ruan Liusu nodded and said, "Yes, we're about to start military training. I was thinking that given our situation, we should sit down and have a good talk, right?"
"Oh? Which situation are we in?" Chen Lie asked.
Ruan Liusu glared at Chen Lie. What did this guy mean?
She, a girl, had already set aside her pride and half-revealed the truth, yet he was still pretending to be confused?
Wait a minute, the tone of his voice... does he want to establish a relationship right after meeting me?
Thinking of this, Ruan Liusu said expressionlessly, "I think the two people should get to know each other better before deciding on their future relationship."
She, Ruan Liusu, is not a casual person.
Even if he is the number one martial arts genius on Earth, he still has to go through the proper procedures before talking about establishing a relationship. How could he rush into things as soon as they met?
Chen Lie found Ruan Liusu's words somewhat inexplicable and asked directly, "What brings you here, just to get to know me?"
"Of course, we should get to know each other first," Ruan Liusu said. "Let me introduce myself to you."
I, Ruan Liusu, am seventeen and a half years old this year. In the martial arts competition among all members of the genius team in southern Jiangsu Province, I ranked among the top five.
I broke through the Qi and Blood Limit at the age of 17, and I am currently in the Refining stage of the Six Steps of Body Refinement.
I'm done. What about you?
"Introduce yourself?"
Chen Lie now genuinely believes the other party wants to be friends, and their attitude is quite good, but there are indeed many suspicious points.
Unlike Ruan Liusu, he didn't introduce himself; he simply asked, "What do you want to know?"
"Hmm—what level are you in martial arts?" Ruan Liusu asked.
"Bone Refining Stage"
"How come you're shorter than me?"
Ruan Liusu found it strange that Chen Lie's performance on the Three Provinces Martial Arts Tournament stage was definitely stronger than that of an average Refining Stage cultivator.
The force of 20,000 jin in a single gesture could not possibly be wielded by someone in the Bone Refining stage.
Yun Chuan, the martial arts champion, was someone she felt she might not be able to defeat, yet she still lost to Chen Lie. Could this be the Bone Refining stage?
Suddenly, Ruan Liusu remembered something and asked, "You're also a mind-manipulator, aren't you?"
"Um."
Being able to defeat a powerful enemy in the Refining Stage using only mental power in a battle, Ruan Liusu knew without a doubt that Chen Lie's mental power talent must be extremely strong.
It even far surpasses his martial arts talent.
Following that, Ruan Liusu asked Chen Lie a series of questions about his martial arts insights and his understanding of the Qi and Blood stages.
She was surprised to find that Chen Lie's martial arts philosophy was incredibly advanced, something that people from a backward province like Sichuan would never say. Even she, from a province ranked among the top twenty in martial arts on Earth, and with a master father who frequently guided her in martial arts, admitted that she was inferior.
They talked about other things, and after getting to know each other better, Ruan Liusu found that Chen Lie was actually quite a good person.
Overall, she was almost satisfied with Chen Lie.
Although she is currently not as good as the top geniuses in their southern Jiangsu province, and even far behind the top geniuses in the top ten provinces of Blue Star, with her father's guidance, she understands that the person in front of her should be able to catch up and surpass her, and will definitely be able to enter Starry Sky University like her in the future without being eliminated.
However, even though I'm satisfied, the necessary procedures still need to be followed.
After talking with him today, she felt that Chen Lie was completely different in real life from Green Bubble. Could it be that he was embarrassed to show himself in front of her in person?
He was indeed a bit too eccentric, which made her feel that he wasn't steady enough.
"You can unleash power no less than that of the Dirty Refining stage, so you must have already reached the Bone Refining stage. Shouldn't you start Dirty Refining now? There shouldn't be any Dirty Refining stage cultivation methods in Dongchuan Province, right?"
Although Blue Star University has a cultivation method for the Dirty Refining stage, there's still a month before the gap in enrollment. Would you like me to provide you with a Dirty Refining method?
Ruan Liusu took the initiative, having already accepted Chen Lie in her heart and subconsciously feeling that Chen Lie was one of her own, so she began to care about Chen Lie's martial arts.
"Provide me with the cultivation method?"
Chen Lie was somewhat surprised.
Is this Ruan Liusu trying to befriend me? We're not even that close yet, and she's already being so generous? It can't be because she's kind, can it?
"No need, I have a cultivation method."
"Oh well."
Ruan Liusu nodded, about to say something, when she heard the sound of a door being pushed open.
Chen Shijian then entered the side room, his face showing impatience.
"Just say a few words, that's enough. It's been twenty or thirty minutes already, there's no need to keep rambling on and on."
Chen Shijian was very worried that his friend's granddaughter and Chen Lie would develop feelings for each other. If that happened, his grandson would probably hate him to death.
Chen Lie stood up expressionlessly.
Ruan Liusu felt that Chen Lie's grandfather was really too clueless, but since everyone was already there, she stood up as well.
"We from southern Jiangsu province will be heading to the northwest front for military training in four days. We'll most likely be assigned to the same training area as Dongchuan. See you then!"
Ruan Liusu said to Chen Lie.
Chen Lie nodded. He could sense the goodwill emanating from Ruan Liusu, so he replied, "Okay."
Chen Shijian impatiently urged Chen Lie, "Alright, stop dawdling, you should go!"
As he spoke, Chen Shijian pulled and dragged Chen Lie out of the room.
Seeing Ruan Zhengzhi arrive shortly after, Ruan Liusu couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, what's going on with your old friend of decades? Why are you rushing me here?"
Ruan Zhengzhi said, "He has dementia, just ignore him!"
After saying that, Ruan Zhengzhi said, "Susu, it's getting late, shouldn't we go back?"
After all, it takes four or five hours to travel from southern Jiangsu to Dongchuan.
"Then I'll tell Chen Lie," Ruan Liusu said.
"There's no need for that, let's go!"
Ruan Zhengzhi shook his head, and after leaving the hotel with his granddaughter, he went straight onto the airship.
After boarding the airship, Nguyen Chinh Trinh activated the autopilot mode, and the airship immediately took off, preparing to fly towards South Jiangsu Province.
On the airship, Ruan Zhengzhi looked at his granddaughter: "Susu, you've met this Chen guy, what do you think of him?"
"It's just so-so!"
Of course, Ruan Liusu would not admit to her family that she had good feelings for Chen Lie; that would be too embarrassing.
"If you're not satisfied, that's fine. That way, I won't have to bring up the future again," Ruan Zhengzhi said.
"I only said it was so-so, I didn't say I was dissatisfied!"
"What do you mean? You can't possibly have taken a liking to Chen Shijian's grandson, can you?" Ruan Zhengzhi's eyes widened in surprise.
Ruan Liusu asked, somewhat puzzled, "Didn't you keep urging me to get to know him better? Now that I've done as you asked, why are you suddenly acting this way?"
Ruan Zhengzhi sighed and said, "That bastard Chen, he screwed me over."
"What do you mean?"
Ruan Liusu also sensed that something was strange about what had just happened, so she quickly asked him about it.
"That damned Chen Shijian, he has two grandsons, the two you just met."
When he mentioned the marriage proposal to me, that old bastard favored his good-for-nothing grandson and brought him over instead of the better one.
He even had his good-for-nothing grandson, Chen Ye, impersonate the eldest grandson of the martial arts champion of Dongchuan Province.
The guy you added to the green bubble is Old Chen's good-for-nothing grandson, the one with martial arts talent named Chen Lie, who has no idea about marriage.
"It was that old bastard Chen Shijian who realized he couldn't hide it anymore, so he hurriedly sent his eldest grandson to save the day," Ruan Zhengzhi said indignantly.
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Liusu blushed instantly.
No wonder she felt something was off about Chen Lie's words earlier. At the Three Provinces Martial Arts Tournament in Yunnan Province, he acted as if he didn't recognize her. It turns out he really didn't know her.
I was so glad I thought he wanted to go straight to the point and establish a relationship.
After feeling ashamed, anger suddenly flared up in Ruan Liusu's eyes.
"That damned little thief, how dare he play tricks on me!"
Ruan Liusu gritted her teeth. From childhood to adulthood, she had never suffered such a humiliating defeat. She had wasted so much time practicing martial arts to reply to Green Bubble, only to be deceived so badly.
"Grandpa, you're so unreliable. You said you were my friend of decades, how could you be so dishonest?"
I'm going back to southern Jiangsu to tell my parents!
Ruan Liusu snorted coldly, her gaze towards Ruan Zhengzhi filled with hostility.
"No, no, no, Su Su, let's talk this over. If everyone knows about this, Grandpa will never be able to hold his head up at home again," Ruan Zhengzhi quickly advised.
"Hmph, you made me waste so much time and embarrass me so much, are you just going to make me swallow my anger like this?"
My parents knew I was traveling this time, and they asked me what to say.
Ruan Zhengzhi immediately replied, "Susu, just help Grandpa out. The two of us can completely keep this a secret."
Didn't you also meet that guy named Chen Lie? I looked him up online, and he does indeed come from an ordinary family, but his martial arts skills are unmatched in the three provinces of Sichuan.
Grandpa thinks you have a good impression of him. Anyway, you're going to Blue Star University, so there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. You can check him out some more. If he doesn't work out, then forget about it.
But if you are truly satisfied, we can skip these unpleasant things and continue our discussion. After all, my granddaughter is so beautiful and has such strong martial arts talent, who wouldn't like her?
Do you think so?
Ruan Liusu thought about it and realized that her grandfather's idea seemed reasonable, but how could she calm her anger?
"That petty thief's name is Chen Ye, right?"
"Yes, the one who came later was named Chen Lie, and the one you injured was Chen Ye."
"Okay, I understand."
Ruan Liusu regretted not hitting harder earlier, but how could she let this little thief who had tricked her get away so easily?
After thinking for a moment, she made a call to her cousin at Blue Star University.
A short while later, the communication was established.
"Sister Yun, do you know any students from Dongchuan Province at Blue Star University?"
"Yes, we know each other. What's up?"
"Do me a favor and help me deal with a guy from Dongchuan Province named Chen Ye."
I'll send you his Green Bubble account number. All Green Bubble accounts are registered under real names; you can check his citizen information.
"Oh? What's wrong? What did this Chen Ye do to offend you?"
"Don't ask about that. Just remember to give that guy named Chen Ye a good beating. Break his arms and legs first, and make sure he's bedridden for at least a month."
After you're done, send me a video.
"Okay, I'll give you the results within two days."
After the call, Ruan Liusu immediately sent the "Chasing the Wind" green bubble to her cousin and then deleted the friend account.
Seeing his granddaughter's reaction, Ruan Zhengzhi knew just how angry she was.
"Susu, that kid really needs to be taught a lesson. After you've dealt with him, Grandpa will find someone to teach him a lesson too, to make sure you get revenge!"
Ruan Liusu said expressionlessly, "Grandpa, you can ask me to help you hide it from my parents, but I need Chen Lie to add me as a friend on Green Bubble."
I need to see the results within thirty minutes.
"Okay, okay, Grandpa will go right away."
Ruan Zhengzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly forced the airship to land. In fact, he was not in a hurry about this matter, but was surprised by his granddaughter's reaction.
Looking at it now, it's clear that the granddaughter is very satisfied with Chen Shijian's eldest grandson.
Who knew that this damn Chen Shijian would pull such a trick on him? Otherwise, how perfect would this marriage be?
Ruan Zhengzhi returned to the Starlight Hotel with a stern face. In the lobby of the Starlight Hotel, Chen Shijian was urging Chen Lie to leave.
When Ruan Zhengzhi arrived, he shoved Chen Shijian aside and said, "Kid, go over there and add my granddaughter to that airship for a green bubble."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shijian quickly said, "Old friend, didn't I tell you? You'll ruin your granddaughter's life!"
"Get the hell out of here! How dare you say these things to me?"
I've finally figured it out. Chen Shijian, you're truly ruthless. I treated you sincerely, and you tried to outsmart me.
Upon hearing this, Chen Shijian's face turned pale and then red, looking quite unpleasant.
"Kid, my granddaughter is waiting for you on that airship. Add her as a friend, and you can go to Blue Star University together and look after each other."
"All right!"
Chen Lie nodded. Ruan Liusu had indeed shown him goodwill earlier, so adding a green bubble wouldn't be out of the question.
Chen Lie went to the airship from southern Jiangsu Province. Upon seeing Chen Lie, Ruan Liusu immediately jumped off the airship.
Before Chen Lie could speak, Ruan Liusu directly showed her friend code.
"Why don't you scan me?"
"OK!"
Chen Lie picked up his communicator and scanned the QR code to add Ruan Liusu's Green Bubble friend.
"We'll see each other again in a few days during military training in the Northwest. It's getting late, so I'm heading back to southern Jiangsu Province."
"it is good."
Before boarding the airship, Ruan Liusu asked, "By the way, your relationship with your cousin doesn't seem very good, does it?"
"Not very good."
"That's good, I'm leaving now!"
Ruan Liusu waved and boarded the airship with her grandfather, Ruan Zhengzhi.
The airship took off and disappeared in an instant.
At this moment, Chen Shijian walked over with a serious expression: "Chen Lie, that girl is someone your cousin likes. You'd better be careful and not have too much contact with her."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lie was taken aback and said, "Grandpa, even if Chen Ye's blood and qi value were increased several times, it would still be less than a fraction of what others have."
With such a huge gap in martial arts, how could anyone possibly even look at him?
Chen Lie greatly admired Chen Ye's strong will.
Ruan Liusu was at the peak of his Qi and blood, having undergone a sublimation of his life level. The two were at different life levels, yet he dared to indulge in wishful thinking.
In his past life, Chen Lie would feel a sense of inferiority when facing Lu Qingchan, whose differences were not that great.
"Isn't Ono Takedo so bad because you refused to help him when he was dying?"
Chen Shijian snorted coldly.
On the other side, Chen Guangqun and Chang Guirong hurriedly sent Chen Ye into the Martial Arts Resources.
After the doctor's examination, he concluded: "There's nothing wrong, just a slight fracture of the sternum. For someone who practices martial arts, a couple of days of rest will be enough. These two days of rest won't affect your free movement."
However, this doesn't apply to high-intensity martial arts training.
Chen Guangqun and Chang Guirong helped Chen Ye out of the Wuke Resources.
After boarding the airship, Chen Ye suddenly said, "Mom, hurry and take me back to the Starlight Hotel, Liu Su is waiting for me!"
Chang Guirong's face immediately turned angry: "Alright, that girl is so unruly and cruel, she attacks people without warning and beats you up like this. We should stay away from people like that."
"Mom, Liusu misunderstood just now. She probably didn't mean to hurt me. I'll explain when I get back and everything will be fine."
Chen Ye said.
"Son, the martial arts skills of that girl from Jiangsu Province are far inferior to yours. Even if you two really get together, if you have a conflict in the future, she is so much stronger than you in martial arts that she can easily injure you. How can that be allowed?" Chang Guirong said.
Chen Ye immediately said unhappily, "I already said it was a misunderstanding. Why are you nagging me? Hurry up and take me to the Starlight Hotel."
If I give up on a girl as outstanding as Liusu, am I supposed to go find those girls whose energy level is less than a few hundred calories and who can't even compare to a single strand of Liusu's hair?
"How dare you talk to me like that, child?"
Although Chang Guirong scolded him on the surface, she couldn't bear to blame her son in her heart, after all, Chen Ye was her precious darling.
"I don't want to listen to your nagging, just take me to the Starlight Hotel to see Liusu." Chen Ye kept shaking his head.
"Shut up!" Chen Guangqun, who was standing next to him, said angrily, "What kind of behavior do you have? How dare you talk to your mother like that?"
He comes from a powerful and influential family in southern Jiangsu Province and is a top-tier martial arts genius. If it weren't for your grandfather, he wouldn't even give you a second glance with your martial arts talent.
Don't have those unrealistic expectations. Who knows how people will react if they find out you're faking it!
"Mom, look at how Dad talks! How can he talk about his own son like that?" Chen Ye immediately became unhappy.
Chang Guirong said, "Guangqun, you can say whatever you want, but please don't deliberately belittle our Xiaoye."
"Does he need me to belittle him? I'm saying all this so he can see his own limitations." Chen Guangqun sneered.
"I don't like what you're saying. What's wrong with our Xiao Ye? Why do we need to recognize our shortcomings?" Chang Guirong said.
"Compared to ordinary people, we are certainly not bad, but compared to the genius girls from the privileged backgrounds of the top twenty provinces on Earth, we are nothing."
"Mom, Dad's words are too harsh. I don't want to listen to him. Please take me back to the Starlight Hotel." Chen Ye said.
Seeing her son's reaction, Chang Guirong was about to agree when Chen Guangqun said, "You don't need to go to the Starlight Hotel anymore. Your grandfather sent a message saying that his old friend has already taken his granddaughter back to Jiangsu Province."
"Huh? Why the rush?" Chen Ye looked disappointed.
"And what about Dad?" Chang Guirong asked.
"Dad rushed over and said he wanted to check on Xiaoye's injuries," Chen Guangqun said.
"Hmph, these people from Jiangsu Province are really rude. They injured someone like this and didn't even bother to visit Ono in the hospital. They just left without saying a word!"
"And what kind of friends did Dad make, talking about decades of friendship?" Chang Guirong complained.
Chen Guangqun kept shaking his head and sighing.
Not long after, Chen Shijian arrived at Wuke Resources. Chen Guangqun received the communication and quickly picked Chen Shijian up and took him onto the airship.
Once aboard the airship, Chen Shijian immediately asked, "How is Ono's injury?"
"The doctor said it's not a big problem and I'll be fine in a couple of days," Chen Guangqun replied.
"That's good."
Chen Ye then asked, "Grandpa, why did Liu Su leave in such a hurry?"
Did she leave any messages before she left? Was she satisfied with me?
Looking at his expectant grandson, Chen Shijian sighed and said, "Xiao Ye, I think we should just give up on this marriage proposal from Jiangsu Province."
Chen Ye couldn't help but ask, "Why?"
"They found out your martial arts achievements are mediocre, so—"
Chang Guirong snorted coldly and said, "These people from Jiangsu Province are also materialistic and snobbish."
Although Ono's martial arts achievements are not particularly outstanding, in what other aspects is he not good enough for them?
Can martial arts achievements represent everything?
Chen Ye was somewhat incredulous. He quickly took out his communicator, opened Green Bubble, and discovered that he had indeed been deleted as a friend.
After a moment of anger, Chen Ye said resentfully, "It's all Chen Lie's fault. If he had been more generous and introduced me to that martial arts master, how could Liu Su have looked down on me because of my poor martial arts performance?"
