The hottest event in Feng City lately was probably the Martial Arts Tournament. It was said that powerhouses of Qingyun School would oversee the tournament with His Royal Highness as the judge and those who managed to get to the top three might catch the attention of these powerhouses.

It was for this reason that many people signed up early on.

“Hey, have you guys heard? Mu Ruyue of the Mu Family is also participating in this tournament.”

“What? Mu Ruyue? The good-for-nothing waste of Ziyue Country? Are you kidding? Why is she here? To add to the joke?”

“I reckon she came to seek abuse, haha.”

The unrestrained jeers of the crowd made Mu Qing flush on the side and he reflexively griped about his daughter deep within. She’s just a waste, so why can’t she just stay at home instead of running here to make a fool of herself? Couldn’t she stand him doting on Ting’er and wanted to antagonize him?

Since the registered candidates were only announced today, Mu Qing had no idea about it. Otherwise, he would’ve gone to stop her.

“Father.” Mu Yixue searched indignantly for Mu Ruyue’s figure, her delicate and lovely little face flushed with anger. “Today was supposed to be the day Sister Ting’er shines, but that waste came to stir things up. I think she’s simply jealous of Sister Ting’er.”

In any case, that waste was a member of the Mu Family. If she made a fool of herself, the Mu Family would become a laughing stock alongside. Weren’t these years of being the butt of jokes enough? She really couldn’t figure out how the excellent genes of her parents produced such a waste.

Nobody noticed that at this point, a pair of furious eyes in a restaurant not far away was glaring fiercely at the group of people who were discussing the matter.

Wu Yu’s head tilted up and he chugged down a glass of wine, suppressing the raging anger within.

Waste? How dare these b*stards mock his favored apprentice a waste? So what did that make him? Wasn’t the master of a waste also a waste? If that girl’s talent was considered trash, he could guarantee that there would never be another genius in this world.

“Mu family?” Wu Yu sneered and looked down at the Mu father and daughter in the crowd.

During these past few months together, he had learned from Mu Ruyue that she was poisoned prior to the test at the age of five, blocking her meridians and preventing her from cultivating. If she hadn’t happened to encounter an expert who helped her detoxify, she would have remained a waste forever.

Of course, Wu Yu didn’t know that the expert was Mu Ruyue herself.

However, at the mere thought that this genius could’ve been discovered a decade ago but wasn’t, Wu Yu’s heart twitched, wanting to immediately go and tear down that so-called Mu family.

“However, it’s not without its benefits. At least Ruyue has discovered the true nature of that brat, Ye Tianfeng, over the years. Otherwise, that brat would’ve successfully tricked my good disciple, right?”

With that argument, Wu Yu felt better. How perverted was his disciple? Men who weren’t outstanding enough on the continent were simply unqualified to be her husband.

“Wife.”

On a road not far from the tournament stage, a nice, pleasant voice came from behind Mu Ruyue.

She only had to hear the voice to know who it was.

“Why are you here?” Mu Ruyue turned around and looked at the young man behind her. But after seeing his aggrieved expression, her voice softened as she spoke.

The young man smiled brightly. The sunny smile on his handsome face inverted all beings even more, as if he was the brightest point in the world. Even the most handsome man in Feng City, Ye Yihua, wasn’t half as magnificent as him.

He radiated a breathtaking feeling just standing there.
