Chapter 1830 Goddess Brother-in-law

Since one party had already conceded and left, the referee teacher, without any hesitation, immediately announced the winner of the match.

Then, he proceeded to honor the bet, transferring all the pledged fire spirit coin into Ye Bufan's fire spirit card.

Moreover, today's challenge was somewhat special; Ye Bufan had just successively defeated Li Yunhe, ranked ninety-ninth on the Heaven Ranking, Duan Wei, ranked twenty-third, and Fan Xiaofeng, ranked third.

As a result, he replaced Fan Xiaofeng's position on the Heaven Ranking, and everyone else's rankings shifted accordingly.

It was precisely for this reason that the referee teacher immediately changed his student token on the spot, officially making him an Inner Courtyard student.

According to Cangfeng Academy's regulations, Heaven Ranking members have residences corresponding to their Rank, with better living conditions for higher Ranks; the first place on the Heaven Ranking has the best courtyard in the entire Inner Courtyard, with conditions decreasing sequentially.

However, this is not static; the living arrangements are adjusted at any time based on changes in one's position on the Heaven Ranking.

Yesterday, Lu Xueman defeated Fan Xiaofeng and moved into the courtyard of the second-ranked Heaven Ranking, while Fan Xiaofeng moved into the courtyard Lu Xueman had previously occupied.

The reason the Academy established this rule was to incentivize students, urging everyone to Cultivate quickly, improve their cultivation, and strive for a higher Rank on the Heaven Ranking.

But this put Fan Xiaofeng in a tough spot; now that Ye Bufan had won, he would immediately move into the courtyard of the third-ranked Heaven Ranking, and having just moved once yesterday, he had to move out again today, each move resulting in a lower Rank.

After all procedures were completed, Chu Lingxi was the first to run over and congratulate Ye Erlang.

"You've been hiding pretty deep, haven't you? I even came out to help you yesterday, only to find out you can even handle that Fan Xiaofeng.

But this is good too; becoming third on the Heaven Ranking makes you and Senior Lu a more suitable pair."

Chu Lingxi spoke and smiled, her smile extremely radiant; she was genuinely happy for the man in front of her.

"Yes, Junior Brother Ye and Senior Lu are truly a perfect match! From now on, let's not call you Junior Brother anymore; let's call you Goddess's Brother-in-Law!"

Although the other people present were not familiar with Ye Bufan, many did not leave immediately, gathering around out of admiration and respect.

Generally speaking, older students should call new students 'Junior Brother,' but since he was now third on the Heaven Ranking, calling him 'Junior Brother' seemed a bit inappropriate.

So, someone came up with an original idea and directly gave him the title of Goddess's Brother-in-Law, which left Ye Bufan feeling a bit bewildered.

Lu Xueman stood gracefully to the side, looking at the man before her, her beautiful large eyes sparkling with brilliance.

At this moment, her heart was surging, filled with joy; she hadn't expected heaven to send her such a great gift.

First, this man had cured her poison and saved her life, and now she discovered he was so outstanding.

Handsome in appearance, Medical skill that reached the heavens, and such powerful cultivation—he was simply a perfect man without any flaws.

Originally, after things happened with Ye Bufan, she still felt a bit unwilling, feeling somewhat wronged, but now it seemed she had actually gotten a great deal.

At this moment, the people around had not yet emerged from their excitement, and someone else shouted, "Senior Lu and Brother-in-Law are truly a perfect match, a match made in heaven…"

"That's right, only a martial Dao Genius like Brother-in-Law can be worthy of Senior Lu…"

At first, everyone was relatively rational, shouting about perfect matches, but later, some busybody suddenly shouted, "Kiss him!"

Initially, only one person shouted, but this instantly ignited the crowd like a powder keg, and everyone else immediately followed, shouting excitedly.

"Kiss him!"

"Kiss him!"

"Kiss him!"

The Tianfeng Empire had an open customs, and people were not averse to matters of love between men and women; for a time, shouts rang out in unison.

"Uh…"

Ye Bufan's face darkened; he hadn't expected such a situation.

He turned to look at Lu Xueman, only to see her eyes filled with affection, sparkling brightly, her cheeks flushed, looking like she was full of tender feelings; if he were to kiss her, she probably wouldn't refuse.

But he would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen; no matter what, this was his woman, even if it was a substitute, it was unacceptable.

Thinking of this, he sent a thought, and Ye Erlang on the stage quickly said, "Excuse me, I need to go to the privy!"

With that, he leaped off the stage and hurried towards the privy.

Behind him, people burst into laughter; no one expected the Goddess's Brother-in-Law, who had just been so brave and mighty, to suddenly chicken out.

Ye Bufan also entered the privy, first changing his clothes, then putting Ye Erlang into the Dragon King Palace, and after changing his identity, he walked out again.

On the stage, Chu Lingxi suddenly remembered Ye Tian beside her, and thinking of how she had lost three times in a row earlier, her face immediately flushed.

She didn't know what had possessed her to make such a bet with him; what would she do now that she had really lost? Would she really let him kiss her?

Thinking of this, she looked back and suddenly realized that the handsome man was no longer in the crowd.

She searched around but still couldn't find any trace of Ye Tian.

Logically, she should have been happy that he was gone, as she wouldn't have to honor the bet, but for some reason, she felt not the slightest bit of happiness, but rather a hint of disappointment.

When Ye Bufan returned, Lu Xueman and Chu Lingxi had already left the stage, and most of the surrounding students had dispersed.

He walked up to the two women, asked for their fire spirit cards, and deposited 1000 fire spirit coin into each card.

Chu Lingxi quickly called out, "Junior Brother Ye, what are you doing? This is what you won; why are you giving it to us?"

"It's so much; I can't use it all myself. Everyone gets a share."

Ye Bufan said, returning the two fire spirit cards to them.

Lu Xueman didn't react much; in her opinion, she was already his woman, so there was no need to be polite.

She said, "You are now an Inner Courtyard member; I'll take you there."

"Wait a moment. I'll go back and pack up first, then come find you."

Actually, as a Cultivators, most of their belongings are in their Storage Ring, so there isn't much to pack.

But since they were separating, he had to say goodbye to Jiang Fangzhou; he considered him his brother, and since he had so many fire spirit coin, he had to share some with him.

"Alright then, I'll wait for you!"

Lu Xueman nodded, then she and Chu Lingxi returned to the Inner Courtyard, while Ye Bufan walked towards the Outer Courtyard alone.

Having been on the stage for so long, it was almost half a day, and it was now evening.

However, when he entered, the small courtyard was quiet, indicating that Jiang Fangzhou had not yet returned.

He should still be Cultivating in the Fire Spirit Tower, and he didn't know if he had come out yet; thinking of this, he stepped towards the Fire Spirit Tower again.
