Chapter 20: Immortal Descending to the Mortal Realm, The Advantage of a Flat Chest  

“Hundred Refinements of the Golden Spear, a peerless divine technique, the ultimate art of slaughter! For men who cultivate it, their edge becomes razor-sharp, their ‘golden spear’ unyielding.”  

Note: One part of your body will gain unparalleled, tempered hardness!  

“This divine technique is truly a treasure for men and the tears of women. Each practice leaves you feeling drained yet standing tall with boundless vigor.”  

Listening to the soft rice system’s flamboyant commentary, Su Chen decisively chose to ignore it.  

Only those lacking confidence would practice this thing.  

Him? Did he need it?  

…  

The next morning.  

After yesterday’s relaxation, Ying Qingge was brimming with energy, ready to give her Junior Brother another round of intensive training.  

“Junior Brother, this is the last training session before the competition.”  

On the training ground, Ying Qingge wore a form-fitting outfit, her graceful figure now exuding a hint of valiant charm. Her exaggerated curves made the outfit look more like a second skin.  

The visual effect… well, those who get it, get it.  

Even Su Chen couldn’t help but steal a few glances.  

“What is it?”  

Ying Qingge’s lips curved upward.  

“It’s about combat awareness in the heat of battle. Fights change in an instant, so you need to be mentally prepared.”  

“Be wary of any kind of attack~!”  

“??”  

Her words left Su Chen utterly confused.  

But soon enough, he understood.  

By noon, Su Chen was wiping lipstick marks off his face and brushing off the lingering fragrance on his clothes, feeling utterly exhausted.  

Senior Sister is getting closer and closer to becoming a total pervert.  

You’re going to ruin the rare goodwill I have for you!  

…  

Time slipped by quietly, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the competition arrived.  

The sky was clear and boundless, much like the mood of the Left Chancellor and the court officials.  

Great. Absolutely great.  

In fact, it was exceptionally great!  

Because today, they’d finally see that lucky brat fall into the abyss. How could they not be thrilled?  

Court politics and undercurrents were far more intense and dangerous than anywhere else.  

The Left Chancellor and his allies had been scheming for the position of Imperial Consort for days, fighting tooth and nail. How could they let an unknown like Su Chen swoop in and take it all?  

We’ve been planning for so long, and you just show up to steal the prize and crush our hopes?  

Who could stomach that?  

Not to mention, the three competitors in today’s match were all elite prodigies of Great Qin’s younger generation.  

In terms of talent and ability, how could Su Chen compare?  

“He won’t just lose this fight—he must die!”  

“But with His Majesty protecting him, she’ll likely intervene.”  

“No matter what, we’ll make him realize how vast the heavens and earth are!”  

The gathered ministers buzzed with discussion, clearly eager to see Su Chen humiliated.  

However.  

Their fervor and enthusiasm began to wane as time dragged on.  

One hour, two hours…  

They waited a full half-day!  

By noon, Su Chen still hadn’t shown up.  

The civil and military officials could no longer sit still, feeling like clowns waiting for a show, only to realize they were the ones being played.  

“What’s going on?”  

“Did he get scared and run away?”  

“Haha, I knew it! That kid’s nothing but a cowardly rat. His Majesty really—”  

Just as one minister’s words were about to land, a voice interrupted.  

“Am I… late?”  

All eyes turned toward the sound.  

From a distance, a figure approached slowly.  

A young man in snow-white robes, tall and elegant, exuded an otherworldly aura, peerless and unmatched.  

His entrance commanded the entire arena, like an immortal descending to the mortal realm.  

Great Qin’s other young talents, though dazzling in their own right, paled in comparison to him.  

It wasn’t just a gap—it was a chasm.  

Not just in appearance, but in presence, they were worlds apart.  

It wasn’t that the Prince’s Heir and others were lacking; it was simply that Su Chen, after his Body Tempering, was too extraordinary!  

“In just a few days, how could the gap be this vast?”  

“What happened to him?!”  

Far from the disgrace the ministers had imagined, Su Chen carried himself with calm confidence, strolling down the path as if on a leisurely walk.  

His serene assurance made even the Left Chancellor and the others grow solemn.  

This confidence wasn’t an act—it stemmed from true strength.  

Someone with such poise was not weak!  

On Su Chen, there was no trace of nervousness or worry—only ease and composure.  

“Hmph! Just putting on a show!”  

One minister, rattled by Su Chen’s transcendent aura, still spoke stubbornly.  

But no one echoed him. Unless they were blind, anyone could see Su Chen’s extraordinary nature.  

In an instant, all prior criticisms vanished with his arrival.  

The entire atmosphere was dominated by Su Chen alone.  

Meanwhile, Su Chen himself was utterly perplexed.  

Strange. Senior Sister said the competition starts at noon.  

I’m not late, so why do they look like they’ve been waiting forever?  

Though puzzled, with Ying Qingge absent, Su Chen had no way to resolve this minor mystery.  

This scene only deepened the crowd’s confusion.  

After all, these days, Su Chen and Ying Qingge were inseparable—always together, whether coming or going. Yet for such a major event, Ying Qingge was nowhere to be seen.  

What could be more important than today’s competition?  

Had the Empress already foreseen the outcome and chosen not to come?  

Of course, though Ying Qingge wasn’t present, she’d sent her trusted aide, the flat-chested loli Chi Tong, to accompany Su Chen.  

But given their awkward encounter not long ago, Su Chen felt a bit uneasy.  

“Hmph! Pervert!”  

“Bullying me for being flat-chested! A vile pervert obsessed with big ones!”  

As Su Chen kept glancing at her, trying to find a chance to apologize, Chi Tong finally exploded.  

His occasional looks at her flat chest were clearly mocking her!  

“Uh…”  

Her outburst left Su Chen stunned.  

Heaven as my witness, that’s not what I meant!  

He’d been looking for a chance to apologize and check if her injuries had healed. Now, this was just awkward.  

After a moment’s thought, Su Chen tentatively offered, “Actually, being flat-chested isn’t bad.”  

“What do you know?”  

“They say, ‘How can you conquer the world with an uneven chest?’ You’re the Empress’s sharp blade to sweep the world—that’s an advantage!”  

Seeing the fuming loli, Su Chen sincerely tried to comfort her.  

Instantly, Chi Tong froze, as if struck by enlightenment.  

An advantage?  

It’s actually an advantage?  

Why does it sound like something you’d say to trick a kid?  

But looking up at Su Chen’s earnest, confident expression, Chi Tong couldn’t help but feel a spark of resonance.  

Right! I’m the Empress’s blade to conquer the world. Why care about trivial details?  

Yup, kids are just that easy to fool!
