Chapter 900: Slap in the Face

Just like that, the battle for the East Continent Rookie List ended here.

Many contestants did not leave the venue, but swarmed towards Li Xu, surrounded Li Xu in the middle, and scrambled to congratulate him.

"Brother Li Xu, congratulations, you deserve the first place in the rookie list."

"Congratulations to Brother Li Xu, the first of the young generation in East Continent, you have a bright future in the future."

Various compliments were heard.

"Brother Li Xu is talented and powerful, and he and Fairy Ruan are really a natural match, a match made in heaven."

I don't know who said this, and it immediately caused a wave of understanding and echoing.

Many people know that Li Xu has always been in love with Ruan Yanran, and he has also pursued her, but gave up because Ruan Yanran's attitude has always been unclear. However, Li Xu still showed his determination to get Ruan Yanran, and believed that Ruan Yanran would be with him one day.

Since ancient times, heroes have been paired with beauties. It is natural for the first place in the East Continent Rookie List to be paired with the first beauty of the young generation in East Continent!

At this moment, under the urging of the crowd, Li Xu also smiled slightly and walked towards Ruan Yanran confidently.

"Yanran, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dinner tonight?"

Li Xu's tone was full of confidence. In his opinion, the reason why Ruan Yanran was indifferent to him before was just because she had not seen his true strength.

And now, he has already ranked first on the rookie list, proving that he has unlimited potential. In the future, he will definitely be a famous giant in Dongzhou. Is he still worried that the beauty will not favor him?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I'm not interested in having dinner with you."

Unexpectedly, Ruan Yanran said coldly.

This also made everyone stunned, and the smile on Li Xu's face froze.

Ruan Yanran, in front of everyone, actually rejected Li Xu's invitation to dinner, and with such a stiff attitude, this is not giving Li Xu face in public.

"Hey, what do you mean? Is my elder brother not worthy of you? Why are you pretending to be so cool?"

A young man walked out angrily. This was Li Xu's younger brother, Li Qing.

Ruan Yanran frowned slightly, and her charming little face turned completely cold. She said, "Speak with respect!"

Li Qing wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Xu.

Li Xu looked at Ruan Yanran, his smile seemed a little stiff, but he still maintained etiquette and said, "Yanran, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else, I just want to treat you to a meal."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not interested."

Ruan Yanran shook her head, "Besides, I have something to do tonight."

After saying that, Ruan Yanran ignored Li Xu and walked directly out of the venue.

The others present looked at each other in dismay.

"Hey, look..."

One of them suddenly pointed at Ruan Yanran's back and said something in surprise, attracting everyone to look.

Ruan Yanran actually walked towards the stands, as if she was looking for someone there.

When she stopped at the stands and said something to someone, everyone could see clearly that the person Ruan Yanran was talking to was a familiar face to them.

"It's Chen Shu!"

"What's going on? Are Fairy Ruan and Chen Shu familiar with each other?"

"They even participated in the trial of the Nine Star Pill Tower together. Do they have a close relationship?"

Everyone was shocked, and at the same time, they felt uncomfortable as if their goddess was being bullied by a pig!

Li Xu liked Ruan Yanran, and they had nothing to say, and even enjoyed it, because Li Xu was the well-deserved first on the East Continent Rookie List. It was natural for a hero to be matched with a beauty.

If anyone disagreed, then only those who were stronger than Li Xu would be qualified to speak.

However, Chen Shu was just an alchemist. Even if he was extremely talented, it was only in the field of alchemy. In terms of martial arts, no one could accept him!

Chen Shu didn't even dare to participate in the rookie match, so it can be imagined that he must be mediocre in martial arts.

Such a guy dared to approach Ruan Yanran, the goddess in their minds?

"Hey, do you remember what I told you that night?"

Ruan Yanran completely ignored the gazes of others and whispered to Su Chen.

"I remember, so what do you want to tell me?"

Su Chen shrugged. He remembered that the girl hesitated for a long time that night and finally said that she would wait until the rookie match was over before telling him.

"Uh..."

Ruan Yanran crossed her hands and twisted them, as if she was a little embarrassed. After a while, she said, "Actually, I want to ask you for help with something."

"Ask me for help?"

Su Chen smiled and said, "I don't help others easily."

"I know, you will definitely be indispensable afterwards.
