"You want to fight me …"

Earlier, Xi Yue had already rejected him, but he had still come over. Moreover, she had directly come to look for him as her male companion, so it was likely that he was just looking for trouble. Since she had already come to look for him, then she had also made preparations.

Barton burst out laughing, as if it was because Liang Yue had actually said it out loud. It was a very interesting thing, he said with a smile, "I'm just letting you decide for yourself. Since you've said it like that, I don't mind letting you try the taste of being beaten up."

Although the tradition of the ball could prevent Liang Yue from becoming Xi Yue's partner, if he was wise enough, he would still be able to avoid some trouble. After all, it was not good to see blood on this day, but now he had decided to give this person in front of him a deep lesson, even if he was a special recruit of the Hetton Mar Academy.

In the dance hall, the piano's sound could be heard. Like a rainstorm falling on the ground, Liang Yue calmly looked at the tall man in front of her before turning around.

Looking at the girl who was laughing behind him, her long eyelashes rested on his fair face, and she said softly, "Actually, you don't need to laugh so secretly, let it be done in the open."

Upon hearing her words, Xiyue's shoulders, which had originally been shaking from laughing in secret, stopped. Then, she raised her head and looked at Liang Yue's face. She was smiling very happily and laughing very loudly. Of course, she was being impudent.

Barton's face was a bit ugly. He originally thought that it would make her a little nervous, but he didn't expect her to smile so happily. He had known her for a while but had never seen her laugh as many times as she had laughed by this man's side today.

Countless students who had come to attend the ball moved their gazes to the two male students who were fighting on the stage. The girl, who was nervously pinching the hem of her skirt, looked at the two people on the stage. Liang Yue could see her gaze more often than the other swordsman, who had been her partner in the dance.

But it would probably disappoint her.

The two people on the stage also looked like they were about to finish the fight. Although their strengths were similar, in the end, as fighting experts, their strength was still better than others. The other student was unable to resist.

Victory and defeat had already been decided. He used his sword to slow down the fighter's attack. The fighter grabbed the air shield and jumped into the man's chest. Without waiting for the man to be hit, he stretched out his hand to grab the man's arm and threw him forward.

With a "peng" sound, he was already lying on the ground, and the battle had ended here. Swordsmen were not proficient in using various parts of their body, and fighting was one of the strengths of a fighter.

The sword-wielding student slowly stood up, using his sword to prop himself up. Feeling that the light on the stage was somewhat dazzling, he lowered his head and said with some difficulty, "I've lost …"

After saying that, he walked off the stage, his body still covered in dust. He looked like he was in a sorry state.

"Are you alright?" The moment he walked off the stage, the girl ran over to his side and carefully wiped the dust off his face with a handkerchief. The boy looked at the girl wiping his face and felt a little bitter.

The girl held his face, looked at him and said seriously, "It's okay, next time you can dance with me."

Liang Yue narrowed her eyes at this scene. Drinking a mouthful of champagne, she spoke to Xi Yue with a face full of smiles, "Look how romantic that person is. If I lose later on, would you be like this?"

Xiyue had long since stopped her unbridled smile and rolled her eyes at him. She scolded him softly, "You're so blabbermouth!" He no longer paid any attention to him, only feeling somewhat happy in his heart. This was because the words that Liang Yue had said to him had become even more intimate.

Barton's expression was currently very bad. After all, Liang Yue had just been talking to him before she turned around to talk with Xi Yue, completely ignoring him and making him lose a lot of face. He opened his mouth and said, "The fight up there is over. Are you going to fight or not?" The anger in his voice was suppressed, and he tried to make his voice sound calm.

Liang Yue turned around with an apologetic smile and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot that you're still here. Let's go now."

The light on the stage had already dimmed, and she had lost the youth who at some point had already left the ball. Through the curtain of the window, she could vaguely see that his figure was somewhat disappointed in the snowstorm, and this was the truth, that people respected the strong even more, and also believed even more in the fact that they could see the truth. A loss was a loss, and the victor, under the welcome of those he knew, walked off the stage to welcome her partner tonight.

The arena was prepared to welcome the next decisive battle between the two youths.

News of what had happened here had already spread through the crowd. Barton was quite famous among the students, and fighting against the students of the Hetton Mal Academy always made people curious.

Hedonmar Academy was the first academy to be established in the capital, Hedonmar Academy. As time passed, this academy had not been overtaken by the surrounding academies, and was instead always one of the top academies in the Duchy of Belmart. Due to the internal security mechanisms, outsiders could only learn a few things about Hedonmar Academy through people they knew about.

No one at the scene had expected that a student from Hedonmar Academy would clash with Barton because of a woman. However, that girl was also a student from Hedonmar Academy, and since she wanted to protect her partner, it was natural for her to do so.

Barton and Liang Yue walked side by side, and by his side, it looked like Liang Yue had lowered her head. Barton was tall, and his entire body was filled with muscles, which made his suit a little tight.

The lights were somewhat bright, and Liang Yue walked forward with her eyes lowered, looking somewhat absent-minded. To him, this didn't seem like a very big matter, but in the eyes of others, it seemed somewhat arrogant. However, good-looking boys were always different in the eyes of girls, not to mention that he was also a person from that academy.

The boys seemed to find this person really annoying for no reason. They would always find it difficult to find people who were better than them.

"She looks like a woman."

"I really don't know where this sense of superiority comes from."

"Barton had also dropped out of the Hetton Mar Academy, did he really think he could beat Barton up a little?"

There were always some unpleasant words being said. Barton looked at Liang Yue and thought, "This is my home ground, would I lose to you?"

Then, from the quiet ballroom came a burst of laughter that sounded like silver bells ringing. Gradually, it became more and more impudent.

Xiyue held her stomach and laughed presumptuously.
