Rest time was coming to an end, and all the polo players mounted their horses and slowly returned to the field.

Pingyang Academy played with such flair that their appearance was met with waves of cheers from the crowd.

Han Che rode at the front. Tall and handsome, he exuded confidence and ease, with a look of a.s.sured victory in his eyes.

In Shengdu, his reputation wasn't as prominent as Mu Qingchen's, but the best opportunity for someone to become widely known was to climb to the top using the reputation of the most famous person.

Today, he would defeat Mu Qingchen, and from now on, whenever people mention him, they would say, "He is the Han Che who defeated Young Master Qingchen!"

Han Che led his team members to meet Mu Qingchen and his two companions.

The arrogance of Pingyang Academy was overwhelming. Just facing each other on horseback made it feel like this place was about to become a dreadful battlefield.

Mu Chuan looked back and murmured softly, "Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Teacher Wu had Zhao Wei take a break and replaced him with Mu Chuan for a short period, mainly because Mu Chuan had coordinated well with Gu Jiao and the others in the previous game.

Yuan Xiao whispered, "I don't know, probably still choosing horses."

Mu Chuan was at a loss, "It's about to start. If he doesn't come soon, it will be a violation."

Their voices were very low, but Mu Qingchen and Han Che, with their sharp hearing, caught every word.

Han Che sneered, "Could it be that your academy's people were scared off by us and decided to flee before the battle even began?"

"Haha!" His other three teammates burst into laughter!

Mu Chuan scoffed, "Who fled before the battle! Not everyone is like your Han Family, abandoning the city as soon as the enemy arrives!"

"You!" Han Che's face immediately darkened.

The Han Family's abandoning of the city had its origins. When the Turks invaded and attacked the State of Yan's border, they used a deception tactic, making the Han Family believe there were ten thousand Turkish soldiers. As a result, the Han Family led the civilians to flee overnight.

But it wasn’t a city, it was a small village!

Moreover, it wasn't fleeing; it was evacuating the civilians!

Mu Chuan, knowing what Han Che was thinking, snorted coldly, "You're just a coward."

Han Che's eyes widened with rage, veins bulging on his forehead.

A companion beside him gave him a warning look, urging him not to get angry easily.

Entering the field with anger was not good; it could easily disrupt their formation and result in fouls and penalties.

Han Che took a deep breath, composed himself, and looked at Mu Chuan with a mocking smile, "You won’t provoke me. Today, Tianqiong Academy is destined to lose! In the second half, I won't let you score even a single goal!"

Mu Chuan was so enraged that he almost wanted to smack him with his mallet, "What's so great about you! It's just because you have the Black Wind Cavalry horses! If you're so capable, why don't you switch to other horses and face us!"

Han Che laughed instead of getting angry, "Having the Black Wind Cavalry horses is my capability. If you have the ability, why doesn't your Mu Family get a few Black Wind Cavalry horses too?"

Where could Mu Chuan get them?

d.a.m.n it!

When they divided the military power of the Xuanyuan Family, why didn't their Mu Family get any Black Wind Cavalry horses?

Whether intentional or unintentional, Han Che lightly pulled on the reins. Suddenly, his Black Wind Cavalry horse surged a few steps toward Tianqiong Academy, startling Mu Chuan and Yuan Xiao's horses, making them neigh and retreat in fear.

"Referee! He fouled!" Mu Chuan called to the referee nearby.

The referee looked over in their direction.

Han Che smirked, "My horse didn't touch them. They got scared on their own."

Mu Chuan gritted his teeth, "You're shameless!"

"Mu Chuan." Mu Qingchen called out calmly.

Mu Chuan reluctantly suppressed his anger.

He was so frustrated!

He wanted to beat him to a pulp!

The conflict between the Han Family and the Mu Family wasn't something that happened overnight. The Han Family was the upstart, while the Mu Family had been prosperous for centuries. The Han Family always sought to provoke the Mu Family and replace them.

Han Che smiled, "The match is starting. If you don't have a subst.i.tute, then..."

Before he could finish, a strange gasp suddenly erupted from the crowd behind him.

He frowned and turned to look in the direction of the entrance. He immediately spotted a student from Tianqiong Academy riding a completely jet-black horse approaching.

Ignoring the student for now, what on earth was up with that horse?

It was entirely jet-black, gleaming with a dark l.u.s.ter; its head adorned with a large red flower, and its mane tied into braids by red ribbons, stepping with proud and elegant strides, leaving Han Che utterly dumbfounded.

A ridiculous thought flashed through his mind——how flamboyant! Why not give it flaming red lips as well?

In fact, Little Jing Kong had indeed stolen his bad brother-in-law's rouge, but Gu Jiao caught him too quickly for him to apply it on the horse, Little Eleven.

Han Che recognized the student on the horse, and then he felt completely unsettled!

What was this kid's name again? …Xiao Liulang, right? Are you here to play polo or to act as a matchmaker?!

"The heck!" Second Master Jing on the stands spewed out all the tea in his mouth.

How can there be such an eye-sore of a horse?

Is Tianqiong Academy changing tactics? Can't outrun you, so they'll blind you instead?

Mu Ruxin discreetly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, clearly also thinking that Gu Jiao was being ridiculous. Riding such a horse to play polo——whose face were they trying to save?

It made them look like a jumping clown.

Suddenly, Lord Duke in the wheelchair began to act strangely. His hand gripped the armrest tightly, and due to the force, even his arms started to tremble slightly.

Mu Ruxin noticed his unusual behavior and quickly asked, "Lord Duke, what's wrong? Do you not want to watch anymore?"

Second Master Jing glanced at the horse and then at his elder brother, saying, "My elder brother really can't stand it. That red flower is off-center, and the braids on one side are missing. It's uncomfortable for him to look at."

Mu Ruxin was taken aback. Did the Lord Duke really have this quirk?

Everyone took their positions, and the match began with Tianqiong Academy's serve.

The polo players from Tianqiong Academy rode their horses towards the sidelines.

A polo player from Pingyang Academy smiled and said to Han Che, "Look at them, their horses are shaking even more than in the first half."

Another player looked and confirmed, then sneered, "That's because they're scared of us. Now, just seeing us makes them tremble with fear."

"Our horses seem to be trembling a bit too."

"It's trembling from excitement!"

The people from Tianqiong Academy fell silent collectively. Although it looked more like a horse queen right now than a horse king, it was still their academy's mount, so they recognized it.

Mu Chuan muttered softly, "Why did you bring it here? Didn't you see that our own horses can barely move in its presence?"?"

Gu Jiao was a bit puzzled. Huh, even with all this disguise, they can still recognize it? Do these horses have some special recognition technique?

Gu Jiao replied, "But there’s no fiercer horse than this one."

Mu Chuan didn't dare raise his voice, fearing that the Pingyang Academy players might overhear. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Then how are we supposed to play later?"

Gu Jiao thought for a moment, "Just keep your distance from me later."

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succ.u.mb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
