In the training field of Zhenyang Spiritual Academy, Ye Yi and Sheng Shi stood facing each other in the middle of the field. Hai Yan and the others stood by the side of the field and discussed, while Kong He sat cross-legged on the ground and shouted.
"Come, come, come ~ Place your bets, place your bets ~ I won't wait for the deadline ~"
"I bet fifty."
Hirako giggled. Lisa pushed up her glasses and glanced at him with slight disdain.
"Only fifty? I'll bet a hundred."
"Then I'll bet on my life too. Thirty is fine.”
Urahara Kisuke smiled foolishly. Although the remaining people had bet different amounts, they all bet on Life and Death without exception.
This caused veins to pop out on Ye Yi's forehead as he pointed at them and shouted.
"Hey! You guys! Didn't anyone bet on me?"
"That's right! Why do you all think that guy won?”
Rishili also chimed in. He wasn't on the same side as Ye Yi, but simply didn't like the sight of life and death.
"If that's the case, can't you just bet on Ye Yi in the Sun World?”
" I'm sorry," Lisa said flatly, leaving Nikori speechless. She then gritted her teeth and said indignantly.
"Fine! Who's afraid of who!"
Then, he turned to look at Kong He.
"I'll bet a hundred on Ye Yi, wait a minute, I'll bet thirty, I'll bet five coins.”
"You might as well not bet."
Hirako curled her lips and complained. The next second, a slipper hit her face, followed by Hiroyi's roar.
"Any objections, baldie?"
"No, no, no."
Listening to the noise at the side of the field, especially when the only person who bet on him, Ri Yili, placed a bet of only five wens, Ye Yi was so angry that his entire body trembled. Kong He was currently complaining with a helpless expression.
"Hey, hey, if all of you bet on life and death, this bet won't work. The only one who bet on Ye Yi only bet five coins.”
"You can't blame us. We trusted Ye Yi too.”
Lisa pushed her glasses up while Kennishi Rokucha crossed his arms and continued.
"In the end, I lost two weeks of living expenses, causing me to work for so many days in vain.”
Hearing Lisa and Fist West's words, Night One finally could not take it anymore, turning to Sky Crane and bellowing.
"Kong He! I bet 500 on myself!"
" Hey, yo! We can start the gambling game now!"
Kong He clapped happily. After all, she, the banker, wouldn't be able to make any money if she bet all of them on one side.
"If you don't have money, don't borrow from me."
Life and Death said indifferently.
As the princess of the Four-Maple House, Ye Yi was definitely not short of money. However, because he did not need money usually, Yuyi of Four-Maple House did not give him much living expenses, at least 500 yuan.
If Yuyi of the Four Maple Court found out that this money was lost in gambling, he would definitely scold Ye Yi from the perspective of a noble.
"Don't be so smug! This time, I will beat you until you cry!!”
Ye Yi clenched his fists and glared at Sheng Shi, while Hai Yan stood at the side and said loudly.
"Get ready to begin!"
As soon as Hai Yan finished speaking, Ye Yi used Instant Steps and appeared in front of Shi Sheng in an instant. His whip leg with 2nd Drive mercilessly kicked towards Shi Sheng's head.
Life and Death did not choose to face him head-on. He leaned back slightly to dodge. Ye Yi's attack did not stop at all. He flipped and kicked at Life and Death's chest. The next moment, Life and Death blocked it with one arm.
"Your speed is good enough, but your strength is still lacking.”
"I don't need you to say that!"
Ye Yi shouted angrily. After landing, he continued to launch a storm-like attack on Life and Death.
Fists, elbows, knees, legs, shoulders, every part of his body was used as a weapon by Ye Yi. During this period of hard training, Ye Yi was able to use 2nd Drive in any part of his body, making it impossible for him to block Life and Death Block. He could only dodge continuously.
Ever since he had first taught Ye Yi the Second Drive, he had realized that Ye Yi's talent in fighting for free was surprisingly high. Up until now, Ye Yi was all above him in terms of strength, speed, and reaction.
In other words, in a battle of raw strength, without the help of the Heaven Slaying Saber, Life and Death would definitely not be able to defeat Ye Yi.
Fortunately, Ye Yi was above him in all aspects, but there was still one aspect that was far from his.
That was sinister.
As Ye Yi's punch was dodged once again, she was about to continue attacking when a handful of sand suddenly sprinkled on her face, instantly blinding her vision.
In the next moment, Ye Yi felt the world spin and his body fell to the ground. He felt his throat being grabbed and heard the voice of Hai Yan.
"Victory has been decided! Life and death win!"
"The result is within my expectations."
Lisa adjusted her glasses as she looked at Life and Death pressing down on Ye Yi.
After so many battles, Ye Yi had suppressed Life and Death in a head-on battle. However, he had always been defeated by Life and Death's unexpected and sinister move. Throwing sand was Life and Death's most commonly used and most effective move.
Moreover, because Life and Death's actions of throwing sand were too subtle and the angle at which he threw the sand was too tricky, Night One couldn't defend himself no matter how hard he tried.
"You lost again, Ye Yi."
Life and Death let go of Ye Yi's throat, and Ye Yi's eyes regained clarity. His eyes were filled with grievance and anger as he lay on the ground and glared at Life and Death.
"Life and Death! You're playing dirty tricks again!"
"As long as I can win, it's a good method. I don't care if I use underhanded methods or not.”
Life and Death stood up, bent over and extended his hand to Ye Yi.
Although Ye Yi was furious, he still reached out to hold her hand and stood up with the help of the force of life and death.
Kong He also came to Ye Yi's side with a face full of smiles, and gently put his hand on her shoulder.
"Hehe ~ Ye Yi, you'll lose ten out of ten battles this time ~"
"Tsk!"
Ye Yi's mouth twitched in displeasure, but he did not say anything to refute. Just as Life and Death had said, whether it was a dirty trick or something else, Life and Death had won the battle. He, the loser, had no right to speak.
"Then Ye Yi, pay up."
Kong He smiled and extended his hand to Ye Yi.
"Five hundred is not a small amount. As the princess of the Four Maple Court, she would not renege on her debt with a commoner like me, right?”
"I know, I know. I'll give it to you!”
Ye Yi's face was full of resentment, and he immediately stretched out his hand towards Life Passing, causing Life Passing to suddenly freeze.
"What are you doing?"
"Lend me some money and I'll return it to you later."
“......”
Life and Death was silent for a while, then he took out five notes from his pocket and waved them in front of Ye Yi.
"If you don't have money, don't pretend to be a big shot. I don't have a good impression of such people.”
A year ago, Yuyi of the Four Maple Yard gave him a large sum of money, saying that it was the copyright fee for Second Drive and Tiptoeing or something.
Although Sheng Shi was not short of money as the grandson of the head captain, it would be a waste not to accept it. At least among the younger generation, Sheng Shi was the richest.
However, since he did not care much about money, he had already borrowed most of it from Ye Yi, Konghe, and Urahara Kisuke.
Of course, the three of them had never returned it. Even though they had passed away, they had never thought of letting them return it.
"Just nice, I don't need you to have a good impression of me.”
Ye Yi snatched the note from Sheng Shi's hand and put it in Kong He's hand.
"Thank you for your patronage ~"
Kong He happily turned around to share the money with Ping Zi and the others, while Ye Yi crossed his arms and glanced at Sheng Shi unhappily.
"I say, can't you fight me openly? Every time, he played dirty tricks. Although I admit defeat, I'm also very unhappy.”
"I have no choice. To tell you the truth, without using the knife, I can't beat you unless I play dirty tricks.”
Life and Death didn't hide anything and directly told the truth.
"Don't just feel dissatisfied. Tomorrow is the graduation test. You'll officially go and fight those Voidwalkers. Those Voidwalkers won't pay attention to being aboveboard with you.”
"Hey, hey ~ I'm about to get calluses from hearing your words, Eldest Young Master Sheng Shi.”
Ye Yi scratched his ears in dissatisfaction, and Life and Death retorted naturally.
"If you really listened to me, I wouldn't have to repeat myself so many times, Young Miss Ye Yi.”
It had been almost a year since they had entered Zhenyang Spiritual Academy. During this year, they had become much more familiar with each other and could basically be said to be inseparable.
During this year, everyone had awakened the sword and successfully mastered the first solution. Their cheap grandfather, who had passed away, had been integrated into a class half a year ago, commonly known as the genius class.
The class time and content were casual. To put it bluntly, everyone could join the 13th Guard Squad after the graduation test, which was tomorrow.
"Alright, that's all for today."
Life and Death walked over to Kong He and the others who had finished distributing the money and clapped his hands.
"Tomorrow is the graduation test. I'll treat everyone to a good meal tonight.”
"Really?"
Kong He looked excited. She knew that Sheng Shi was a big shot among them. If Sheng Shi treated them, it meant that they could eat as much as they wanted!
"If it's a treat, there's no reason not to go.”
Lisa was the first to voice her opinion, and the others all agreed, making a din as they walked out of the training grounds.
Life and Death turned to the side and lightly tilted his head at Night.
"Let's go, Ye Yi. I'm leaving you behind ~"
Looking at the life and death in front of him, Ye Yi was suddenly stunned for some reason.
How should he put it? Although he was still a little unhappy about the undecided engagement between them, he seemed to have slowly gotten used to being by their side.
As Ye Yi thought of this, he came to Shi Sheng's side and put his hand on his shoulder with a light smile.
"I don't think you have the guts to abandon me, so don't talk big.”
"You can try ~"
Life and Death shrugged lightly. At this moment, Kong He suddenly jumped between the two of them and placed his hands on their shoulders. He hugged the two of them and followed the main group.
"I say, what are you two wasting time for? Forget about Ye Yi. You're responsible for paying for life and death. If you run away, no one will treat you today.”
"Huh? Kong He! What do you mean? It's the same without me, right?"
"What else?"
"Kong He, you bastard!"
Looking at Ye Yi and Kong He bickering beside him, the corners of Life and Death's mouth curled up into a gentle smile when the two of them did not notice.
Such days were much better than his previous life.
