“Haha…”
Darryl was elated as he had passed through both the literary and martial arts preliminaries. The next day would be the actual competition.
He looked back at Yvette sitting on the high platform as he left the competition square and suddenly felt a little urgency in his heart.
‘Yvette, wait three days for me. I’ll enter the finals three days later.’
Darryl then returned to the inn to meet up with the Four Dragons and Four Phoenixes. Someone hurriedly rushed out of the competition square and directly bumped into Darryl right at this moment.
Thud!
‘F*ck, why are you still bumping into me when the entrance is so wide? Where are you rushing off to?’
Darryl was depressed and confused at the same time.
‘It’s soft, what did I just bump into?’
The next second, Darryl glanced at the person in front of him and he was suddenly stunned.
This person in a pastel yellow shirt had a fair and clean face with a studious look. It was clear this person was a literary competition contestant. However, Darryl instantly understood the reason when they bumped into each other.
This person was a lady dressing up as a man! Yes, Darryl was sure of it!
Darryl was confused at that moment. Why would a lady dress up as a man to attend the literary competition? Was she going to marry Yvette if she won the competition?
“Look at where you’re going!” said the other person unhappily before Darryl even spoke a word.
‘What? You bumped into me, yet you’re the one talking?’
Darryl frowned and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
This lady was Parker Yohan from the Yellow Sea Continent—the heiress of Famed Sword Manor!
Darryl was stunned upon hearing that before he chuckled and looked at her. “Interesting. You are the one who bumped into me, why do I have to apologize to you?”
‘She’s bold enough to be disguised as a man and compete in the literary competition. She must be some heiress from some big shot family to speak so unreasonably.’
Parker was furious as she said with an arrogant face, “You! You’re not apologizing? Fine! You better be careful next time and don’t touch me!”
How despicable! She was the famous Famed Sword Manor’s heiress. Everyone should be polite to her.
Parker wanted to teach this rude person a lesson were it not for wanting to expose her identity.
Darryl standing before her looked ordinary in her eyes with an average power at best, so she need not mind him.
‘Haha! Threatening me?’
Darryl smiled secretly in his heart upon seeing Parker’s furious face before playfully said, “So what if I see you again next time? What can you do to me? You’re clearly a young lady after all, why do you pretend to be a studious scholar? Do you want to marry the Princess?”
