Chapter 368: The Preliminary Competition Begins (1)
Chapter 370 Preliminary Competition Begins (Three)
"Flora, long time no see us."
Just as Liu Zhe and Flora were halfway through their conversation, something suddenly broke out. Liu Zhe's tone suddenly stopped and he looked at the person who interrupted.
Liu Zhe's eyes turned and he saw the person interrupted. He was a young man with metal glasses. He was about twenty-five years old. He looked elegant and had the style of a noble family. However, for some reason, the man looked at him and seemed very unfriendly.
"I messed with him?" Liu Zhe was puzzled. In his impression, he seemed to have never seen this person before.
As soon as he came over, he ignored Liu Zhe's existence. Philip walked directly to Flora and said kindly, "I haven't seen you for a while. Flora, you seem to be more beautiful and charming. It's really lucky to have a flower like you in our Jinhua Branch."
As he said that, Philip showed a smile that he thought was the most handsome, with a row of white teeth shining. At the same time, he glanced at Liu Zhe quietly, his eyes seemingly provocative.
Faced with Philip's provocative eyes, Liu Zhe was speechless. The other party's actions were so obvious. Even if Liu Zhe was stupid, he could guess where his hostility came from. Without hesitation, Liu Zhe chose to ignore it.
On the other hand, Flora was not happy at all in the face of Philip's complimentary words, and frowned and said disgustedly: "Four-eyed bug, do I know you very well? I'm so disgusting."
"Uh." Hearing this, Philip's smile froze. Although he had known what kind of personality Flora had, he was one of the three geniuses of the Jinhua Branch! He did not expect that Flora would not give him any face in front of Liu Zhe, an outsider.
When he heard Flora called the other party four-eyed insect, he thought that someone's name was worse than himself, Liu Zhe twitched and almost laughed out loud, but out of etiquette, he still held back his smile and did not laugh out loud.
However, Philip was still aware of Liu Zhe's subtle behavior. Suddenly, he looked ugly and pointed his finger at Liu Zhe, shouting: "Irregular guy! Why are you laughing!"
Faced with Philip's stern accusation, Liu Zhe touched his nose and said without comment: "I laughed at me, does it have anything to do with you?"
"Okay! You dare to argue, do you know who I am?" Philip's tone fell. Before he could even put on a proud posture, Liu Zhe said immediately without thinking: "I don't know."
"..." After a silence, Liu Zhe's quick answer made all the plans behind Philip disrupt. In an instant, he breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, his eyes locked on someone and said lightly, "...Hugun, come here!"
As soon as he heard his name being called out, Houtun ran over without saying a word and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes! Brother Philip, I'm here now!"
After running for a while, Hutton quickly came to Philip's side. He saw him nodding respectfully to Flora, then turned to Philip and asked, "...What are the instructions for Brother Philip?"
"Tell this ignorant guy who I am." Philip pointed at Liu Zhe with a finger.
Hütton is also a keen mind. When he saw Philip's actions, he immediately reacted. In an instant, he exaggeratedly said: "What! Someone doesn't know Brother Philip of our Jinhua Branch! He doesn't even know this kind of common sense. This is no longer ignorant, but stupid!"
"Hmph." Hearing this, Philip proudly raised his chest. Although he had heard too many compliments and was not cold to it, in front of Liu Zhe and Flora, these compliments were very useful.
Seeing Philip's satisfied expression, Houtun was not breathing at this moment. Without waiting for Liu Zhe to respond, he continued: "Tell you, Brother Philip is a genius star of our Jinhua Branch! One of the three most powerful young people! Brother Philip, who is twenty-six years old this year, is already a junior alchemist, and a twenty-six-year-old junior alchemist. Do you understand what this concept is? Just a rookie who is just a newcomer to the alchemist, one hundred are not as good as one Philip!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhe was a little surprised. He originally thought that this was another passerby character, but he didn't expect that this young man with glasses was so powerful, so he was actually a little bit? One of the three geniuses, he seemed to have a big background.
"Hugton, you're too exaggerating. The Lieyang Empire is full of talents and has more people with better alchemy talents than me. My achievements are not worth showing off." Philip pretended to be calm, but his tone was full of pride.
Seeing someone praising him so much in front of him, Flora immediately became dissatisfied and said sourly: "Yes, what's the point of four-eyed bug that is worth pride? I'm much better than him."
Hearing this, although Philip felt a little uncomfortable, the person who spoke was Flora. He did not refute and admitted: "Of course, Flora, your talent is top-notch in terms of the entire empire, and I think it is worse than that."
"A mere four-eyed insect is a little self-aware." Flora's expression was proud, but when she saw Liu Zhe next to her, the arrogance on her face immediately retreated three points. She did not forget that there was a more evil guy beside her.
Under Liu Zhe's confusion expression, Flora glared at him fiercely and thought to herself: Humph, so what if he is so powerful? Isn't my junior brother in my seniority?
After serving Flora's mood, Philip pretended to be dissatisfied and asked casually: "By the way, Flora, should you introduce to us who is the one next to you?"
Upon hearing this, Flora frowned and said unhappily: "Why should I answer you? You won't ask him about this little thing."
"..." He was speechless and was slapped in the face by Flora many times. Philip just touched his nose and did not speak back. After all, he knew very well the identity of the girl in front of him, and he definitely couldn't afford to offend him.
Seeing Philip being scolded so much that he could not speak back, Liu Zhe couldn't help but feel pity for him. Suddenly, he was very understanding and took the initiative to say, "I am Liu Zhe. I am neither the three geniuses you mentioned, nor the origin of a wealthy and noble family. You don't have to care too much about me."
Hearing this familiar name, Hütton said blankly: "Liu Zhe? The same name as the person who won the Empire Championship?"
Philip showed a sarcastic look and laughed, "Hahaha, is this your real name? Or do you just want to imitate that Liu Zhe? There seem to be many such people. It is said that there are many more people named Liu Zhe in the Lieyang Empire recently."
"This is really not the real name." Liu Zhe shrugged and thought carefully. The real name of his body is indeed not Liu Zhe, but Shiel.
Seeing Liu Zhe honestly admitting, Philip did not stop joking and said unforgivable: "Hmph, I know what that Liu Zhe is. How can you imitate the champion of the Empire Competition? What's more, he is a magic genius. You, an alchemist with a different field of cultivation, want to learn from others?... But this outfit is quite well learned, haha." Philip flew over and said Liu Zhe like a funny clown.
Faced with Philip's teasing, Liu Zhe just shook his head and had no intention of explaining it to him. At this moment, a familiar voice that was beyond Liu Zhe's expectations suddenly came.
"Brother, I finally found you! You are so indifferent. You don't even say anything to us when you go out for a game. Hahaha, look, I've brought you all the people to cheer you up!"
