Chapter 309 Human Females Fleeing in the Beast World 37
Pei Yan knew that He Lun's most frequent residence was the apartment on the top floor of the Xingyu Building, and the significance of arranging Shen Chumo there was self-evident.
Pei Yan recalled Shen Chumo's eyes in the arena; facing orcs several times stronger than her, her eyes showed no fear.
Instead, her eyes revealed a tenacity and stubbornness, and it was precisely because of this look that Pei Yan chose her to win.
As it turns out, he was right.
Subsequent events further proved Shen Chumo's extraordinary nature, and he became increasingly interested in this human female, even suppressing news about her.
Aside from his subordinates, the orc spectators in the arena all believed Shen Chumo had died in the explosion. Later, he went to great lengths to find Shen Chumo.
Everyone else thought he was just arresting a suspect in the bombing and didn't know that this person was Shen Chumo.
“Helen, this time I’d like to see just how far you’re willing to go for this human female.” Pei Yan’s lips curled into a meaningful smile, but a barely perceptible shadow of gloom flashed in his eyes.
...
On the other side, Lin Ting's account was blocked for three days. After being forcibly logged off by the system, she was furious and enraged in her room.
"Aaaaaah! That bitch, I'm going to make him pay!"
Lin Ting continued smashing things in her room, growing angrier with each passing moment. Outside, several servants exchanged uneasy glances, none daring to enter. After all, one of the servants had tried to reason with Lin Ting earlier when she was angry.
They were severely reprimanded by Lin Ting and fined half a month's wages. So at this moment, they would rather listen to the smashing sounds coming from inside than dare to go in and risk getting into trouble.
Exhausted from smashing things, Lin Ting slumped to the ground, her eyes filled with resentment. Suddenly remembering something, she struggled to her feet.
She turned on her personal terminal and contacted someone.
"Go, help me check an account called Night Shadow. I need to know what his real-world identity is!" Lin Ting said fiercely to the person on the other end of the personal terminal.
A deep voice came from the other end of the phone: "Lin Ting, what are you planning to do this time? Virtual world accounts are kept secret. If they are discovered, I can't afford the consequences."
Lin Ting sneered: "What are you afraid of? As long as you do it cleanly, how could you be discovered? Let me tell you, this Night Shadow made me look so bad, I absolutely cannot let it go like this."
If you help me get this done, you'll definitely get your share of the rewards.
The man chuckled softly, "Of course I believe you. Don't worry, I'll send you his information within three days."
Lin Ting received a satisfactory reply and then smiled.
Nightshade, blame yourself for being too nosy. You'd better have a powerful background, or don't blame me for being ruthless.
Lin Ting tidied her hair and then opened another friend's contact page.
"Cheng Wen, it's been so long since our classmates got together. How about we get together sometime in a few days? Oh, and remember to invite Wu Feifei too, I miss her."
...
The next day, Shen Chumo appeared at the arena on time. Because of her performance yesterday, there were even some orcs in the audience who came specifically to see her.
When they saw Shen Chumo, they shouted for him.
Shen Chumo found it somewhat amusing. If these people knew they were watching a match between humans, would they still be so excited?
"Night Shadow!" An Shi suddenly appeared behind Shen Chumo.
Shen Chumo turned around and saw An Shi's excited expression. A faint smile appeared on her lips.
"An Shi, what brings you here?"
An Shi ran to Shen Chumo's side, her eyes sparkling, "Didn't we agree yesterday that I was here to cheer you on?"
As he spoke, he seemed to remember something, and took a small pendant out of his pocket and handed it to Shen Chumo.
"Here, take this. It's said that wearing it brings good luck. You must wear it during your match today."
Shen Chumo took the pendant, which was an exquisite little silver badge with an unknown symbol engraved on it, radiating a soft light.
A warm feeling welled up inside her, and she whispered, "Thank you, Anshi."
Just then, an announcement came over the loudspeaker that Shen Chumo's competition was about to begin.
She took a deep breath and prepared to walk onto the field.
Upon arriving at the center of the arena, Shen Chumo saw her opponent, who turned out to be none other than Brother Tian, whom everyone had been surrounding yesterday.
Since both of them were just one match away from advancing in rank, the outcome of this duel was particularly crucial.
When Tian Ge saw Shen Chumo, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by a playful smile.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to really be just the two of us competing. You seemed to have some skill yesterday, but are you going to stick with the human race again today?"
Shen Chumo raised an eyebrow slightly, her expression calm and composed.
"You're ridiculous. I've never heard of someone asking what form others are using before a match. What? Are you afraid you'll lose?"
Tian Ge was taken aback for a moment, then threw his head back and burst into laughter, his hearty laughter echoing throughout the entire arena.
"Interesting, very interesting! You've got a sharp tongue. Fine, I won't ask anymore. I'll take whatever form you choose!"
His eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit, and his aura grew stronger and stronger, like a ferocious beast about to devour its prey, causing the female orcs in the audience to scream.
"Brother Tian, take him down!"
"Brother Tian, we support you!"
The audience's enthusiasm was completely ignited, and the cheers rose one wave after another, as if they were about to overturn the entire arena.
Amidst the fervent cheers, Shen Chumo remained remarkably calm. As the referee walked onto the field, his gaze swept over the two players, and he announced loudly, "The match begins!"
Shen Chumo drew her longsword, while Tian Ge roared and transformed into his hyena form.
His body instantly grew taller, his muscles bulged, and every hair on his body stood on end, exuding a wild aura.
Sharp fangs protruded from the corners of his mouth, gleaming coldly under the light, and a pair of eerie green eyes stared intently at Shen Chumo, like a ferocious beast locking onto its prey.
As soon as the match began, Tian Ge charged out like an arrow. His limbs pawed at the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Shen Chumo. His sharp claws reached for her throat, his movements swift and ruthless.
Shen Chumo's eyes sharpened, and he swiftly raised his longsword, precisely blocking the fatal blow.
The sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the stadium, sending sparks flying.
Taking advantage of the moment when Tian Ge's attack was blocked, Shen Chumo lightly touched the ground with her toes and leaped back several meters, widening the distance between them.
She knew that she would be at a disadvantage in terms of strength and speed when facing the transformed orcs in her human form, so she had to remain agile and find the opponent's weaknesses.
