Chapter 20: The Cost of Persistent Pestering! Wang Jian Gets Beaten Up by Feng Lan!
[What's with this Wang Jian from the Wang family?]
[I remember that in my previous life before my rebirth, there was no Wang Jian in the Imperial Capital Grand Academy, and I never experienced his persistent pestering...]
[Could my rebirth have caused such a significant impact? Did it result in the Wang family producing a genius capable of entering the Imperial Capital Grand Academy?]
At this moment, Feng Lan was feeling very annoyed. She genuinely disliked the persistent pestering from Wang Jian.
Lin Tianming, listening to Feng Lan's thoughts, also realized that Wang Jian was not a student of the Imperial Capital Grand Academy in the previous life. Most likely, the presence of so many reborn individuals had caused many things to change and take different directions.
However, what troubled Lin Tianming more was that his little girlfriend, Ye Qingxue, was also very angry at this moment, upset about Feng Lan claiming he was Feng Lan's boyfriend.
"Qingxue, let it go. We met Feng Lan during the new student test. Calm down... calm down!"
Ye Qingxue couldn't calm down at all; she was really angry. "How can I calm down? Brother Tianming, she said you are her boyfriend. Isn't that trying to steal my boyfriend?"
[Or... could it be that Brother Tianming really fell for Feng Lan at first sight and got his soul hooked?]
[No way! Brother Tianming is mine!]
Listening to Ye Qingxue's thoughts, Lin Tianming felt like he was trapped in a love triangle.
Wang Jian, seeing Ye Qingxue's reaction and originally planning to trouble Lin Tianming because Feng Lan insisted Lin Tianming was her boyfriend, smiled again.
"So, your name is Feng Lan, junior. Your little couple is having a quarrel because you used her boyfriend as a shield. Junior Feng Lan, stop looking for shields. I know you don't have a boyfriend. Wouldn't you consider me?"
To be honest, Wang Jian was indeed the thickest-skinned man Lin Tianming had ever seen.
Lin Tianming wished he could go up and beat up this guy who was pestering Feng Lan.
However, with Ye Qingxue in a rage, to avoid her misunderstanding him, Lin Tianming had to temporarily give up this rare chance to gain Feng Lan's favor and reduce her resentment.
Seeing Lin Tianming not planning to help her, Feng Lan decided to solve it herself.
"Get lost!"
With those few words, Feng Lan issued an eviction order to Wang Jian.
"If you won't leave, then I'll send you away!"
As she spoke, a terrifying gale surged around Feng Lan.
The sword in her hand buzzed. Although it wasn't fully drawn, just a small part of the blade, combined with the gale around her, unleashed a wind attribute sword energy towards Wang Jian.
Previously, he wasn't worried about a new student like Feng Lan hurting him, but after seeing the terrifying wind attribute sword energy she slashed out, Wang Jian's expression changed drastically.
"You... you're already a level 15 awakened? A new student... how can you be level 15? No... no way! Even at level 15, you shouldn't be able to unleash such a terrifying sword energy!"
Shocked, Wang Jian immediately went on the defensive, igniting scorching flames around him.
However, before his flames could fully form into a skill, Feng Lan's wind attribute sword energy shattered his attack.
The flames dispersed, and Wang Jian was sent flying.
It seemed Feng Lan did it on purpose, as the flying Wang Jian didn't hit any bystanders or furniture in the cafeteria but crashed onto the floor where no one was around.
[There's a lot you don't know! Before my rebirth, I was the Wind Sword Goddess. Even at level 15, with my supreme understanding of abilities from my past life, defeating a mere level 25 awakened like you is a piece of cake!]
Hearing Feng Lan's thoughts, Lin Tianming felt relieved about her.
But looking at the disheveled Wang Jian on the ground, Lin Tianming couldn't help but laugh.
Wang Jian struggled to get up, his eyes filled with anger instead of his previous flirtatiousness.
"I... I remember now! Feng... Feng Lan... you're from the strongest Feng family among the four major awakened families in the Imperial Capital, and you're the daughter of the current head of the Feng family!
I didn't expect you to be level 15 already and to possess the Feng family's legendary Wind Sword. Today, I, Wang Jian, admit defeat! But don't think you're invincible just because you have the Feng family's Wind Sword, humph!"
After his harsh words, Wang Jian turned to leave. However, he accidentally caught sight of Lin Tianming's mocking expression, which enraged him further.
Feng Lan was the daughter of the Feng family head, wielding the Wind Sword; he could accept losing to her.
But how could he tolerate being mocked by a random bystander like Lin Tianming?
Even though Wang Jian wasn't the heir of the Wang family, he was still a member of it and couldn't allow someone like Lin Tianming to ridicule him!
"You over there, you brat! Come here! Let your senior teach you a lesson about respect!"
