"Han Family?" Gu Jiao turned to look at Mu Qingchen.

"An esteemed family that ranks among the four great families of Shengdu. Every member is skilled in both literature and martial arts. Back then…” Mu Qingchen paused, unsure whether to continue, but seeing Gu Jiao's eager gaze for knowledge, he sighed and decided to explain.

“After the Xuanyuan Family's rebellion and defeat, their military power was divided into four parts. The Nangong Family took the largest share, followed by the Han Family, the Wang Family, and the Mu Family. It's worth mentioning that the Xuanyuan Family's cavalry were allocated to the Han Family, known as the Black Wind Cavalry. To ensure their bloodline's strength and purity, the breeding and training of the Black Wind Cavalry horses are extremely rigorous."

Gu Jiao made a sound of understanding, looked at his horse, and asked, "Why isn't your horse afraid?"

Mu Qingchen soothingly stroked the horse's head, "It's not that my horse isn't afraid; I'm using internal energy to stabilize it."

Gu Jiao looked at Mu Qingchen’s horse, then at the three trembling horses including her own, and said, "So when we go out on the field later..."

Mu Qingchen took a deep breath and said, "We'll leave it to fate."

In this world, there were no horses more valiant and skilled than the Black Wind Cavalry horses. Just as there was an overwhelming presence between martial experts, the same went for their mounts.

Wherever the Black Wind Cavalry horses appeared, all other horses retreated!

In the stands, many who had seen the Black Wind Cavalry before couldn't help but lament for Tianqiong Academy.

"It's over, completely over now." Second Master Jing sighed helplessly as he watched the small figure on the field whose aura resembled that of his elder brother-in-law.

"Why... is it over?" Mu Ruxin walked over, puzzled.

She was from the State of Chen and didn't understand the political matters of the State of Yan.

Second Master Jing pointed to the mounts of Pingyang Academy and said, "Do you see those horses? They’re not ordinary horses, they’re Black Wind Cavalry horses!"

At the mention of the Black Wind Cavalry, Mu Ruxin was shocked into silence.

Rumored to be brave and formidable, capable of breaking through cities with ten thousand or even conquering nations with a hundred thousand, the Xuanyuan Family's Black Wind Cavalry were unparalleled in dominance wherever they went.

It was said their horses were more ruthless and dominant than ordinary warhorses, they were known as the death warriors among horses.

"Is it necessary for a game?" Second Master Jing muttered.

Whether it was necessary or not, he knew in his heart. The Han Family and the Mu Family were not on good terms, and for the Han Family's young master to deploy even the Black Wind Cavalry horses, it meant he was determined to trample Mu Qingchen underfoot.

"Sigh."

Second Master Jing tugged at his collar irritatedly.

Annoying.

He didn’t want to watch anymore.

Hm, wait.

Why was he annoyed?

Wouldn't it be in his interest for that kid’s academy to lose?

Second Master Jing smirked mischievously, his eyes gleaming as he stared at the field.

The gong sounded, signaling the official start of the match.

Tianqiong Academy took the first shot, and as the team leader to boost morale, Mu Qingchen personally took the first hit.

He aimed the ball towards where Yuan Xiao was positioned.

Yuan Xiao understood his intention and prepared to catch the ball. However, just as he was about to swing his mallet, his horse was suddenly startled, nearly throwing him off its back!

By the time Yuan Xiao steadied himself, the ball had already been taken by a student from Pingyang Academy.

The horses of Tianqiong Academy couldn’t outrun the Black Wind Cavalry horses.

Once Pingyang Academy gained possession of the ball, there was basically no room for a comeback.

This feeling was somewhat like riding a small electric scooter to chase after a Lamborghini—could you catch up?

At the end of the first chukka, Pingyang Academy had scored three flags, while Tianqiong Academy had none.

At the end of the second chukka, Pingyang Academy scored three more flags, and Tianqiong Academy scored one, thanks to a long-distance shot by Mu Qingchen.

By the end of the third chukka, Pingyang Academy secured four flags, and Tianqiong Academy gained one, scored by Gu Jiao with a long-distance shot.

“If this keeps up... we’re definitely going to lose, right?”

In the Tianqiong Academy stands, Zhong Ding whispered.

Zhou Tong, with a tense expression, said, “I believe in Xiao Liulang!”

Another student added softly, "Mainly because Pingyang Academy's horses are too fast and too aggressive."

After four chukkas, the first half ended with Pingyang Academy leading twelve flags to two flags for Tianqiong Academy.

It seemed utterly hopeless.

They had barely regained their confidence to watch a match, only for their team to be on the verge of a devastating loss.

The students of Tianqiong Academy hung their heads like withered eggplants, dejectedly slumped against the railing.

In the waiting area, Teacher Wu was livid, practically exploding with anger, “How could they use the Black Wind Cavalry horses! This is too much! It’s outright bullying! They used ordinary horses in the last match!”

The polo horses of the noble young masters were anything but ordinary, but it also depended on who they were up against.

Before the Black Wind Cavalry horses, all other horses were inferior.

Teacher Wu couldn't swallow this indignation. He rolled up his sleeves, saying, "This can’t do, I'm going to reason with their dean!"

“You’re allowed to learn on the spot but we’re not allowed to use the Black Wind Cavalry horses?”

A mocking voice sounded at the door.

Everyone turned towards the voice, revealing the polo player from Pingyang Academy, the young master of the Han Family, Han Che.

He stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the door frame, a smirk playing on his lips, “Did our academy break any rules?”

With one sentence, Teacher Wu was completely shut down.

That's right. There was no rule saying one couldn’t use the Black Wind Cavalry horses, but that was because the rule-makers never anticipated someone would use the Black Wind Cavalry horses in the polo tournament!

This was simply using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!

Were the Black Wind Cavalry horses meant to be used like this?

Han Che sneered disdainfully, “See you on the field.”

Teacher Wu clenched his fists, suppressed his anger while gritting his teeth, then turned to Gu Jiao, "Xiao Liulang, your horse can't be used anymore. You'll need to switch horses. The academy's horses are all in the stable. Will you go choose one, or should I?"

Gu Jiao had been the most aggressive in blocking Pingyang Academy, and her horse was the most frightened——caught between the intimidation of the Black Wind Cavalry horses and the threat from its rider.

"I'll go." Gu Jiao said.

“Alright, but it’s all the same.” There wasn’t a single horse in the stables that wasn’t afraid of the Black Wind Cavalry horses.

The stables of each academy were separated, guarded by sentries at the door. Only members of each academy were allowed to enter their own stable.

Tianqiong Academy's stable was at the innermost part.

Gu Jiao continued walking forward, when suddenly she felt a small dark figure flash past.

She turned her head slightly, her brow furrowing.

The next moment, the small dark figure flashed past again!

Gu Jiao narrowed her eyes and walked a few more steps forward. When the small shadow flashed by a third time, she quickly reached out and caught it!

The small figure was lifted up, suspended in the air.

Gu Jiao looked closely and was instantly stunned, “Jing Kong?”

When speaking outside, she always used a male juvenile voice, but Little Jing Kong was already familiar with this voice.

Little Jing Kong immediately looked up, “JiaoJiao!”

Little Jing Kong dove into Gu Jiao's embrace.

Gu Jiao naturally wrapped her arms around him, "Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in class?"

Xiao Heng had mentioned taking the little one to his class at Lingbo Academy before handling his affairs.

Little Jing Kong opened his eyes wide for a second, "I didn't skip class!"

Gu Jiao: "..."

Great, caught red-handed skipping class.

Gu Jiao set the little guy down on the ground and asked him to stand properly. She then crouched down slightly to meet his gaze, asking seriously, "Why did you skip class?"

"I... I..." Little Jing Kong lowered his head, grabbing onto his small pocket.

Gu Jiao pointed to where his little hand was covering,"What's in your pocket? Take it out."

Little Jing Kong guiltily took out what was inside, "It's... it's a small flower and a little string. I wanted to braid Little Eleven's hair."

Gu Jiao was slightly surprised.

Little Jing Kong gathered his courage and lifted his head, "But, but I've finished all my homework! I even memorized the teacher’s lectures! I really, really learned everything before coming out!"

"Little Eleven came?" Gu Jiao asked.

Little Jing Kong completely missed JiaoJiao's main point and went off track.

The little guy nodded, looking aggrieved, "Mm, I missed Little Eleven so much. I told Big Brother Xiaoshun last time that if he and Big Brother Yan came again, they should secretly bring Little Eleven over to play with me."

Why didn’t they use this horse king at the beginning? Because all the other horses were afraid of it. If it went on the field, their teammates' horses would kneel first.

Moreover, this horse king had to work at home.

Like pulling carts and millstone.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi 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 succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi 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 Shi 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?"

Shi 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?"

Shi 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—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
