Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Matchmaking (Second Update)

Yang Jinhua, you’re truly a genius!

If Baiyu and Jiang Xi become a couple, then inheriting and passing on the core secrets of the Golden Rainbow Academy would be only natural!

In today’s society.

Young people are impulsive, all chasing after giant warships and cannons.

It’s really hard to find a qualified successor who has the right foundation!

Now that Qiong Jiu has personally delivered herself to our doorstep, how can we let that go to waste?

Yang Jinhua stroked his beard, the wrinkles on his old face slowly smoothed out, and he smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum.

“Master, what are you thinking about?”

Jiang Xi’s suspicious voice echoed.

Today Jiang Xi didn’t tie her hair in a ponytail, and her long black hair hung down smoothly behind her. Although she wore a loose kung fu robe on her upper body, it could not hide her proud figure.

Her lower body was clad in a vintage pair of cropped tapered trousers.

Her white calves and ankles were exposed.

The embroidered little green cloth shoes added a touch of classic beauty.

Her face was delicate and exquisite, with bright and intelligent eyes.

Her features seemed to be crafted by the world’s greatest artisan, each part just right, exuding not only pure beauty but also a unique captivating aura.

“Ah, hahaha, I was just thinking of some happy things.”

Yang Jinhua snapped back to reality, increasingly satisfied with his apprentice.

From her figure, aura, to her face, she was one in a million.

A top-tier beauty of unmatched charm.

Except for a somewhat eccentric and reclusive personality.

Except for when she goes berserk and might beat someone to death in a rage.

Except for eating several kilos of meat every meal.

Except for…

Basically, except for some minor flaws, she had no flaws at all.

And can these little flaws really be called defects?

With his apprentice backed by the Golden Rainbow Academy, she is the sole successor of Yang Jinhua. In what regard can Baiyu not match up to her?

Thinking of this.

Yang Jinhua suddenly felt a thud in his heart.

Dear heavens.

It seems that rascal Baiyu’s conditions aren’t bad either.

If we talk about looks, he’s almost as handsome as I was in my youth!

If we talk about background, not to mention his parents who were once the mainstays of the pro-war faction, but just being Erza’s heir combined with having a General Pang Fei, he easily surpasses Yang Jinhua.

In terms of talent, he is always first place, first in every subject, a super genius who tops everything.

In terms of strength…

Ugh.

Can’t compare.

Yang Jinhua pushed the chaotic thoughts out of his mind.

The war hasn’t started yet, how can he demoralize himself and raise others’ prestige?

For the first time ever, his old face was serious, staring at Jiang Xi, “Disciple, there’s something very important that Master needs to discuss with you.”

“What is it?”

Jiang Xi shifted her gaze from Baiyu on the screen.

“Do you know how Master and your Mistress became a couple back in the day?”

“Hmm?”

“Sigh, don’t look at Master as he is now, Master was once a peerless talent and the shy yet sweet dream in the hearts of countless young ladies… sigh, I’m old.”

Yang Jinhua slumped in the bamboo chair, looking at the ceiling at a forty-five degree angle, reminiscing about the past, his eyes glistening with tears.

“?”

Jiang Xi tilted her head, a question mark forming on her face.

“Your Mistress left early, never leaving me descendants, so I’ve always treated you as my own. Do you know what Master’s greatest wish right now is?

When people age, they just want a house full of children and grandchildren.

Now Master’s greatest wish is for you to give me a grandchild.”

Yang Jinhua sighed emotionally.

“??”

Two question marks was the response he received.

But the old man’s face was as thick as city walls, unfazed in the slightest:

“I’ve thought about this for a long time, but ordinary men simply aren’t worthy of my most proud disciple.

Plus, given your constitution.

Even those from prestigious families dare not get near you.

But today, a voice in my heart was guiding me, helping me make a choice!

What do you think of Baiyu?”

“What???”

Jiang Xi’s expression froze, slowly forming three question marks.

“Ahem. As the saying goes, pursuing a woman is as tough as crossing a mountain; pursuing a man is as easy as piercing through thin gauze.

In this world, it’s hard to find exceptional women, but finding exceptional men is even harder, even if you search with a lantern.

Once you have a target, you must act swiftly.

Look at Baiyu’s stamina and endurance, even if you go crazy on him, he’ll surely bounce back the next day!

And you don’t dislike him, do you?

If you can’t find someone to marry in the future, Master can only arrange matches with those from wealthy families. You dislike those second-generation young masters, and Baiyu comes from a poor background, just one house in his family, with outstanding qualities in every regard; he’s your best choice.”

Speaking passionately.

Yang Jinhua struck a match and lit a wrinkled cheap cigarette, taking a deep puff: “Disciple, don’t be like Master when he was young. Once, there was a sincere love before me, but I didn’t cherish it. Only after losing it did I regret it. If heaven gives me another chance…”

“No need for another chance.”

Jiang Xi pinched out the cigarette in his hand, coldly saying, “I have no such intentions.”

“But…”

“No buts, ever since I carried this superpower, I never thought about such things.”

Jiang Xi’s face was expressionless.

However, Yang Jinhua caught a hint of other thoughts from the girl.

It’s “never thought about”, not “don’t want to”.

There’s hope!

He grinned cheekily:

“Alright, Master won’t talk about this anymore, but a girl is bound to get married someday.

Some small quirks are normal.

After Master and your Mistress got together, I was also disliked, but in the end, we were loving and affectionate.

What if the other person doesn’t care about those things at all.

Thinking requires action.

Like sending breakfast, offering a drink, buying gifts during festivals, posting selfies on social media, accidentally holding hands while shopping, do you need Master to teach you these things?

Back then, when your Mistress pursued me, she personally dealt with all the women around me.

If you had even a third of her strategies, could Baiyu ever escape your grasp?”

Jiang Xi rolled her eyes, “Baiyu already passed the first round.”

Seeing his apprentice about to go into a rage, Yang Jinhua awkwardly smiled, quickly changing the subject.

…

Now thirty-four hours have passed.

Yet the few mechanical conveyors at the Martial Arts Dojo’s exits were no longer sending in new Mechanical Warriors.

The long, intense battle suddenly ceased.

Amidst the scattered mechanical debris, Baiyu frowned: “What’s going on? Have I cleared it or not?”

The exit wasn’t open.

Proving he hadn’t cleared it.

But with no more Mechanical Warriors emerging, he was utterly puzzled.

Of course.

Only Yang Jinhua knew what was happening.

The Mechanical Warriors were all killed!

Every stored Mechanical Warrior was destroyed by this kid.

No one had ever truly brawled non-stop for over thirty hours before, so this was the first time such an event occurred.

“No need to feel bad, no need to feel bad.”

“This is an investment in my precious apprentice, when that brat comes out, he better remember this favor!”

Yang Jinhua ground his teeth, murmuring with a pained expression on his face.

Then he activated the voice equipment, speaking to Baiyu at the Martial Arts Dojo: “Don’t wait around, the Mechanical Warrior stock is depleted. You can rest until you’re fully energized and proceed to the next level!

By the way.

A word of caution, the second level is a Sword Array, lasting thirty-six hours for full marks.

Don’t push yourself too hard!

Absolutely do not push yourself too hard!!”
