"It's our turn."

Gu Jiao nodded slightly, mounted her horse, and entered the polo field with her fellow students from Tianqiong Academy.

There were two entrances, and Qingyue Academy entered first.

As the imperial polo player rode in confidently, the entire field erupted in cheers.

Next came the three other team members, each outstanding in their own right, garnering loud applause.

As each one entered, Mu Qingchen introduced them to Gu Jiao.

"From the imperial polo team, Xu Ping, skilled in long-range attacks with high tactical prowess. No one can steal the ball from him."

"Tong Peng, ten years of polo experience."

"Nangong Lin, eight years of polo experience."

"Someone from the Nangong Family?" Gu Jiao narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Yes, he’s a young master of the Nangong Family." Mu Qingchen replied.

Gu Jiao's gaze fell on the confident and arrogant young man who frequently waved to the spectators.

When the fourth person entered, Mu Qingchen's lips moved slightly.

Gu Jiao was still observing Nangong Lin and didn't notice Mu Qingchen's unusual behavior.

"Su Hao." Mu Qingchen said.

Gu Jiao responded with an "oh."

Soon, it was their turn to enter the field.

Mu Qingchen led the way. As the renowned Young Master Qingchen of Shengdu, his appearance immediately overshadowed everyone from Qingyue Academy. The young ladies in the audience screamed in excitement.

"Young Master Qingchen! It's really Young Master Qingchen!"

"I can't believe I'm seeing Young Master Qingchen in my lifetime!"

"Young Master Qingchen!"

"Young Master Qingchen!"

Xiao Heng felt his eardrums were about to burst as his three cla.s.smates in the pavilion nearly lifted the roof with their excitement.

Yuan Xiao and Mu Chuan followed Mu Qingchen onto the field one after the other.

Both were also handsome and striking men, but with Mu Qingchen s.h.i.+ning like a pearl in front, no matter how handsome and impressive they were, they could only serve as his foils.

Fortunately, they were used to it.

Gu Jiao was the last to enter.

She was new and not well-known, only drawing a few extra looks due to the birthmark on her left cheek.

The players from both teams met in the center of the field.

The imperial polo player Xu Ping looked at Mu Qingchen and said, "Finally, I have the honor of witnessing Young Master Qingchen's skills. It's truly a privilege."

Mu Qingchen replied coolly, "You're too kind."

Su Hao glanced at everyone with a smile, his gaze settling on Mu Qingchen's face. With a broad smile, he said, "Fourth brother! So you're partic.i.p.ating too? Why didn't you say so earlier? If Father knew, he would have set aside his work to watch your match!"

When Gu Jiao heard the term "fourth brother," she remembered that Mu Qingchen had mentioned his name was Su Hao.

He was also from the Su Family.

Mu Chuan quietly explained to Gu Jiao, "Su Family's third young master, my fourth brother's half-brother. My aunt was furious that my uncle fathered an illegitimate son, so in a fit of anger, she made my fourth brother take her surname instead. This Su Hao is really annoying, always jealous of my fourth brother! But no matter how jealous he is, it's useless. My fourth brother is the legitimate son, and even with a different surname, he's still the legitimate heir. My uncle dotes on my fourth brother a lot!"

It was evident.

Su Hao's words were laced with envy and jealousy towards Mu Qingchen.

Nangong Lin had no personal grudge against Mu Qingchen, but he too harbored some jealousy towards him.

He sneered and said, "I heard that Tianqiong Academy has been quite arrogant lately, even bullying Wuyue Academy."

Indeed, there was such an incident where the deputy general's son from the Nangong Family was severely injured by Gu Jiao.

From Nangong Lin's tone, it seemed he wanted to settle the score for his people.

"It was you, right, kid?" Nangong Lin looked disdainfully at Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao's birthmark made her easily recognizable.

Nangong Lin smirked menacingly, "Watch out for the horse hooves. You wouldn't want to fall off."

……

On the other side, Second Master Jing finally arrived at Lingbo Academy.

Although he didn't leave late, he didn't antic.i.p.ate that this year's polo tournament would draw such a large crowd, causing all the roads leading to Lingbo Academy to be jammed.

By the time he entered the academy, the first two matches had already concluded.

"Why are there so many people?" He muttered, drenched in sweat.

At this point, he had reached the back of the stands he had reserved and needed to climb a few dozen steps to get to his seat.

Being a martial artist with greater strength than ordinary people, he lifted his elder brother, wheelchair and all, and carried him up the steps.

The servant boy, who had been instructed by Second Madame, quickly followed.

Second Master Jing was a man who knew how to enjoy life; he wouldn't foolishly sit and watch the match under the scorching sun, allowing himself to be roasted.

He had the servant boy bring ice blocks, chilled fruits, and a variety of refres.h.i.+ng and sweet snacks.

The viewing stand he chose naturally had an excellent view, allowing him to oversee the entire polo field. It was topped with a roof, resembling a small pavilion, and was open on all four sides for ventilation.

Well, actually, only three sides.

The left side, which was the neighboring pavilion, was draped with a jade-beaded curtain.

He hadn’t ordered the curtain, so it must have been prepared by the people next door.

"Who could be next door, using such high-end curtains?"

Others might not recognize these jade fragments, but he certainly did.

These weren't ordinary fragments; they were whole pieces of jade that had been cut and polished into various shapes, strung together with top-quality pearls. They were incredibly valuable, practically priceless!

Curious, Second Master Jing glanced to the left. Although the beaded curtain had gaps, it still obstructed his view somewhat. He could only vaguely make out from their attire that four students from the Canglan Women's Academy were sitting next door.

One of the students sat with perfect posture, exuding an exceptional aura of elegance and n.o.bility, radiating the presence of a high-born lady.

"This little beauty is somewhat..."

Second Master Jing couldn't quite put his finger on it.

At that moment, perhaps sensing Second Master Jing's gaze, the young beauty turned her head and looked over at him.

Their eyes met through the beaded curtain.

It felt like a glance from the peak of a snowy mountain, sending a s.h.i.+ver down Second Master Jing's spine.

Too cold!

This kind of beauty was not to be approached, not at all!

However, there were still the other three little beauties next to her. Their figures were also quite graceful and alluring.

Especially since the three of them were chatting and laughing. While the beaded curtain could block the view, it couldn't block the sound. The young ladies’ cheerful laughter drifted over, making Second Master Jing feel completely at ease.

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the s.h.i.+ 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 hards.h.i.+p and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When s.h.i.+ Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the s.h.i.+ 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 s.h.i.+ 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?"

s.h.i.+ 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?"

s.h.i.+ 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—”

s.h.i.+ Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
