Chapter 95 Deception
"Xiao Wu, where have you been?" Tang San had not gone far from the base when he bumped into Xiao Wu who was returning.

Xiao Wu avoided the other person's eyes, not daring to look him in the eye. The close contact she had just had with Chen Xuan was still fresh in her mind. She felt a little guilty about what she had done to her third brother.

But soon, her guilt disappeared, because she remembered that Tang San also betrayed her and kissed Huo Wu from Blazing Academy passionately for more than two minutes.

"I...went out to buy something..." Xiao Wu avoided eyes, rarely lied, and her speech was extremely unfluent.

Tang San heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that, and the stone in his heart was finally put down.

It seems that Xiao Wu did not follow them and did not see the ridiculous thing happening between him and Huo Wu. Although it was not his own will, no one would believe it if he told them.

Therefore, he did not plan to tell Xiao Wu, as it might affect their relationship.

"That's good. You should go back and have a rest. The teacher's list of names is out, and it's your turn to be the first to go on stage." Tang San said, his worries gone.

However, little did he know that Xiao Wu had noticed all his subtle changes.

First she was betrayed, and now she was deceived by the person she loved the most, which made her heartbroken and extremely aggrieved.

"Okay, I understand." Xiao Wu was sad.

"I have to go back to the academy, you go back first." Tang San nodded. He didn't notice that Xiao Wu was abnormal and there was a hint of sadness in the depths of her eyes.

How could he have imagined that everything he did with Huo Wu, including their passionate kiss in the woods, was witnessed by his beloved sister.

Originally, Xiao Wu still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that Third Brother was not that kind of person and that he must have been forced.

She had thought it through. As long as Third Brother didn't lie to her and told her the truth sincerely, she would choose to forgive him, pretend that nothing had happened, and continue to love Tang San deeply.

Unfortunately, all this was just her hope and wishful thinking. The reality was not at all what she had imagined. Her third brother betrayed and deceived her.

If Tang San was forced and hated Huo Wu, with his skills, how could he not avoid the kiss? Even if he didn't avoid it, why didn't he push her away at the first moment and continue kissing for more than two minutes.

Xiao Wu wanted to deceive herself, but her actions and attitudes proved that Tang San did it on purpose and did not hate Huo Wu.

"Xiao Wu, then you should have a good rest and prepare for tomorrow's game. I'm leaving first." Tang San instructed again, there was nothing to explain.

Chen Xuan's image flashed through Xiao Wu's mind, and she blurted out, "What about Chen Xuan?"

Hearing this name, Tang San frowned, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in the depths of his eyes, but he hid it well.

"Teacher said that Chen Xuan was seriously exhausted in today's game, so he was not arranged to play." Tang San's expression was calm, without any emotion on his face.

Xiao Wu remained silent, with a hint of elegance in her eyes.

For some reason, she felt a sense of strangeness and alienation towards the current Tang San. He was no longer the third brother she was familiar with.

After parting with Xiao Wu, Tang San headed for Shrek Academy. Before he had taken a few steps, he ran into a man who had no respect for his elders and whom he disliked very much.

Chen Xuan frowned slightly. He met this mistress when he came back, and she gave him a sour face.

"The ghost lingers."

Tang San snorted coldly, his face indifferent, and walked straight past him, ignoring him.

"Fried pancakes, please." Chen Xuan was speechless.

Tang San walked away without understanding. He would not pay attention to a person who had no respect for his elders and was arrogant and conceited.

"Are you going to compete tomorrow?" Chen Xuan walked over and his eyes fell on Xiao Wu, especially her belly, which he couldn't help but pay attention to.

"Yeah." Xiao Wu nodded, somewhat indifferently, without much emotion.

Chen Xuan paused and hesitated for a moment before continuing, saying: "Can I not go to the competition?" The moment he said this, he immediately regretted it. The relationship between the two was already stiff, and they were just teammates. He had no status and it was not appropriate for him to say such things.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll go back first." Sure enough, Xiao Wu's face became even colder and the atmosphere became more tense.

"That's all." Chen Xuan felt a little disappointed, but he still gritted his teeth and said the last sentence.

"Then be careful and don't hurt yourself."

Xiao Wu did not stay any longer, turned around and left without even a moment's pause, leaving behind only a cold back.

Watching the other person disappear from his sight, Chen Xuan's heart was filled with mixed feelings. He felt that it was fate that was playing tricks on him and it was a bit pathetic. He never expected that one day he would have to become a bootlicker.

"It's been almost two months since that day." He looked up at the dim sky and muttered to himself.

Since Xiao Wu was unwilling to tell him the truth, he would not take the initiative to expose it, but he still had to do what he had to do, at least he couldn't let her get hurt.

As night fell, Chen Xuan returned to the Shrek base and went back to his residence without disturbing anyone else.

……

There was no conversation that night. Day and night passed by, and the sun rose. In a blink of an eye, it was already the second day.

Early in the morning, Master Yu Xiaogang led the Shrek team to the Tiandou competition area.

Liu Erlong and Flanders followed closely behind, but Qin Ming did not go with them. Instead, he returned to Shrek Academy and needed a teacher to take charge.

Chen Xuan had already gotten up and walked out of his residence. The huge Shrek base was empty, with only him left, wandering around the camp.

The camps of other colleges were also empty. Everyone had gone to the competition area, and very few people remained in the camps.

Yu Xiaogang's plan was implemented. He accused him of having severe spiritual power consumption and told him to have a good rest in the next two days without having to prepare for battle.

It was said to be two days, but it was actually longer. Chen Xuan knew that he would have no chance in the subsequent competitions, not only the promotion rounds, but also the knockout rounds after going to the Spirit Hall.

According to Yu Xiaogang's style, all potential threats will be nipped in the bud and not given any chance to make a comeback.

Chen Xuan shook his head and didn't know what to say about Flanders. As the dean, he had very little say.

But on second thought, it is understandable. After all, the academy belongs to Liu Erlong, and this woman is deeply in love with Yu Xiaogang and will definitely not take his side.

There was nothing that could be done about it. It was his own fault for closing down the original Shrek Academy and following Yu Xiaogang to join the Tiandou Royal Academy. In the end, he was kicked out. In a sense, it was his own fault.

Currently, Yu Xiaogang is the only one in power in Shrek Academy. Chen Xuan feels that the chance of him participating in the subsequent battles is very small and there is no suspense.

Unless Yu Xiaogang dies.

"Let's get familiar with the environment outside Tiandou first."

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, left the Shrek camp, and prepared to go out of Tiandou City to explore the terrain of the nearby area.

Shortly after he left the camp, he ran into a guy who claimed to be a noble.

"Brother Chen, where are you going in such a hurry?" This was a middle-aged man with short hair that stood up and was extremely hard. He looked like a difficult person to talk to.

He was wearing a golden robe made of the finest silk and inlaid with a row of gems, which sparkled brightly.

"Brother Chen, would you please do me the honor of entering the palace for a chat?" The man in luxurious clothing spoke, claiming to be a prince from the Tiandou Palace.

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up. It seemed that yesterday's game did have some effect, and people started to come to him.
