Chapter 47

Xue Chuan had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His father was the vice president of Jianghai University, and his status and position were highly respected throughout the city of Jianghai. From a young age, wherever he went, he was always praised by others.

He was handsome, tall, wealthy, and the captain of the basketball team.

Everyone in the basketball team knew his personality. When Tang Yan first joined the team, no one took her seriously. At that time, everyone in the team followed Captain Xue Chuan's orders.

It wasn't until later, when Tang Yan demonstrated her true abilities and led the team to victory against a professional team from the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA) in a friendly match, that Xue Chuan began to recognize her. From then on, everyone started to listen to Tang Yan, but Xue Chuan's recognition of her was just that—recognition.

The conditions set by Hu Wen were extremely harsh, demanding that he kneel and admit his mistake. This was almost an insult, but Xue Chuan understood that it was a warning from Hu Wen.

Previously, he had led a group to challenge the Arts Department, using his father's name to intimidate Ye Qingxue. Now, Hu Wen was turning the tables on him.

She was establishing her authority, using Xue Chuan as an example.

Hu Wen was an existence that no one dared to provoke at Jianghai University, including Xue Chuan. Although his father was the vice president, even the university president and board members would greet Hu Wen proactively.

Hu Wen's background was extremely powerful. The largest gang in Jianghai City was the Hu Yun Gang, and it was said that the leader of the Hu Yun Gang was a former colonel of the Nationalist Party who had stayed on the mainland instead of going to Taiwan, and had founded the Hu Yun Gang.

The influence of the Hu Yun Gang extended beyond Jianghai City, reaching into the surrounding cities as well. The Hu Yun Gang was not a gang that engaged in robbery and murder; they were involved in many industries, including film, television, real estate, and more.

Hu Wen was the granddaughter of the leader of the Hu Yun Gang and the most outstanding member of the third generation of the Hu family.

Xue Chuan naturally knew about Hu Wen's power. The reason he had intimidated Ye Qingxue was to see if the "Basketball God" was as legendary as the rumors suggested. He had reached a level in basketball where he didn't even consider the CBA's top players to be a challenge, unless it was the NBA stars who could impress him.

"What did you say?" Tang Yan looked at Xue Chuan in disbelief.

"Boss, did you hear clearly? That shrew is asking you to kneel and admit your mistake," the others looked at Xue Chuan in confusion.

"I know," Xue Chuan slowly raised his head. "But that's just a bet. We only need to kneel and admit our mistake if we lose. If we win, we don't have to."

"But Captain, Xia Tian is really strong," Fang Li looked at Xue Chuan with a furrowed brow.

"Do you doubt me? Besides, it's not just me going out there. We're all going out together, the entire main team. I want to see what he can do," Xue Chuan said confidently. This time, he was going all out, with all five first-line players on the field.

This was absolute strength.

"Xue Chuan, are you sure?" Tang Yan looked at Xue Chuan seriously.

"Yes."

"Alright, everyone in the basketball team, gather up. I need to have a meeting," Tang Yan's voice echoed throughout the basketball department.

Jianghai University was filled with beautiful women. Even someone as beautiful as Ye Qingxue and Tang Yan could only rank fourth or fifth, which showed just how high the quality of beauty was here. Every year, many beautiful women entered Jianghai University, and some of them stood out.

However, the top beauty of Jianghai University had never changed.

Yun Miao was the undisputed top beauty of Jianghai University. Someone had once compiled a video of her every move and posted it online, which instantly became a headline.

She was called the most ethereal beauty, and looking at her was like seeing a fairy descend from heaven. People had only heard of how beautiful Chang'e was, but no one had ever seen her. However, everyone at Jianghai University believed that even if Chang'e descended, she might not be as beautiful as Yun Miao.

She gave off a sacred aura, and wherever she went, it seemed as if she was surrounded by a radiant glow.

"Senior, there's going to be a show," a plain-looking girl pulled Yun Miao and said.

"You, always so impulsive. What happened?" Yun Miao's voice was like that of a nightingale, making people feel as if they had entered a fairyland.

"Do you remember the 'Basketball God' who caused a stir a few days ago? He's going to play against the basketball department again. I heard that Xue Chuan is leading the team, and all the first-line players are participating."

"What's so interesting about that?" Yun Miao said.

"Senior, I don't think the 'Basketball God' is an ordinary person. Haven't you forgotten why we came here? What if this person is related to the Heavenly Scroll?"

"We've been in Jianghai City for so many years. We heard that the scroll might be in Xia Tianlong's hands, but he's dead, and the news of the scroll has completely disappeared. Since then, I haven't heard anything about the scroll. There were hundreds of people from twelve countries involved in that battle, and no one knows who ended up with the scroll," Yun Miao continued.

"Senior, sometimes when we want to find something, it seems out of reach, but sometimes we might find clues just by watching the show."

"You really defeat me. You can come up with such reasons," Yun Miao said helplessly.

"Senior, please come with me. I really want to see what the 'Basketball God' looks like."

"Alright, alright, just this once," Yun Miao nodded.

This basketball match attracted a lot of attention. The entire basketball team was going up against the 'Basketball God' from the Arts Department. This was sure to be a great show. The 'Basketball God' had demonstrated his prowess at Jianghai University before and then disappeared.

Everyone was looking forward to seeing if the 'Basketball God' could win again.

Would his incredible long-range shots reappear?

Even some journalists had heard about this and planned to live-stream the event, making sure to capture a clear image of the 'Basketball God.' Although there were some videos of the 'Basketball God' from last time, there were no clear photos.

Zeng Rou accompanied Xia Tian to Jianghai University. Zeng Rou and Xia Tian had already had a conversation. Zeng Rou said that she would treat what happened last night as a dream, unrelated to Xia Tian. From now on, she would be his sister, not his girlfriend.

This was a decision she had thought about for a long time. She was getting old, while Xia Tian was still young and outstanding. She didn't want her selfishness to make Xia Tian focus all his attention on her.

Although Xia Tian said he would take responsibility, Zeng Rou was very firm in her stance, and Xia Tian could only accept it helplessly.
