They all returned to Nan Family Residence since neither one of them have any interest to attend more classes. While Feng Ao Kuai like to go to class, he was more interested in the fact that his little cousin was masquerading as a boy right now.

"Aunt," Nan Luo greeted when he saw Nan Si Qiao was in the main hall.

Nan Si Qiao had returned along with her two children. She was telling Old Master Nan about Feng Ao Si\'s embarrassing performance. Though, her main point was that she was worried that he would lose his life.

Nan Si Qiao\'s eyes lit up when she saw Nan Luo. "Ah Luo, you seem to grow taller. Have you been well?"

"Yes, Luo is training hard." Nan Luo nodded solemnly.

After caressing Nan Luo\'s head, Nan Si Qiao turned her head to look at Nan Hua\'s direction. At this time, she was having difficulties to open up the face mask that she was wearing. She let out a faint laugh.

"Hua\'er, come here. Let me help you."

"Aunt…" Nan Hua greeted in a low voice.

"Hua\'er?" Feng Ao Si was stunned. He turned to look at Nan Hua as disbelief plastered all over his face. He had been staying near Nan Hua all this time but he didn\'t even realize it?

Feng Ao Kuai snorted when he saw his older brother looked stupefied. "Hua\'er is interested in the academy?"

"Mhm."

Nan Hua was staying still as Nan Si Qiao gently ripped the face mask. As it was taken off, they could finally see her previous face. Thanks to the face mask, her face was slightly flushed underneath. Her fair skin was slightly shaded with red color, making her look increasingly adorable.

This look… could easily melt one\'s heart.

As expected, Nan Si Qiao couldn\'t control her hand as she pinched Nan Hua\'s cheek. "You\'re really adorable, Hua\'er. Ah, how much I hope that you can be my daughter~."

Nan Hua blinked her eyes, not understanding what Nan Si Qiao meant.

Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai were both silent. They had long known about their mother\'s obsession over having a daughter. Unfortunately, she was only blessed with having two troublemaker sons.

"Feng Ao Si," Old Master Nan finally called out. He had heard the evaluation from Nan Si Qiao before the two brats came. Looking at Feng Ao Si, he sighed.

"Grandfather," Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai both greeted.

"You\'ll be staying here and train with Ah Luo."

"Ah?"

"If you still can\'t pass the lessons, I\'ll not allow you to return to the frontline."

Feng Ao Si\'s face changed. He was already 14 years old and while he was still quite young, he had his own small army. What should he say to this people if they couldn\'t come back to the frontline anymore?

"But Grandpa, I…"

"Do well and you can return. Do you really think that the battlefield merely relies on one person?"

"…No."

"Have a game. You team up with Feng Ao Kuai face Nan Hua and Nan Luo. Both of you have to protect a flag while targeting the other party\'s flag. Place of battle is in Ning Shu Pavilion, at the bamboo forest."

The four youths were listening intently. They then looked at each other. While it sounded simple, it was actually a test for their skill.

"What\'s the rule, Grandpa?" Nan Luo asked.

"You just have to snatch the flag." Old Master Nan saw their gazes and smiled faintly. "Using any methods you can think off."

Any methods?

The four youths had started to think of several thinks within their head. They looked at each other, tempted to try the methods.

"Go."

They turned into two groups as Hou Liang handed flags to them. It was a small flag that could be easily carried.

Nan Hua looked at the flag. "Can we carry the flag around?"

"Yes."

"Oh." Nan Hua then handed the flag to Nan Luo.

Nan Luo was stunned. He knew very well that Nan Hua was much better than him, so why did she hand the flag over to him?

"Your task is to run."

Run?

After a few seconds, Nan Luo nodded his head then looked at the opponents in front of him. He could see that Feng Ao Kuai had also handed the flag over to Feng Ao Si. It seemed that he viewed Feng Ao Si to be able to protect the flag better than him. With the absolute strength that Feng Ao Si had, it would be hard for Nan Hua to snatch the flag from him.

"Ready?" Hou Liang watched the two groups and a smile formed at the corner of his lips. Seeing all four of them nodded, he shouted, "Begin!"

Swish!

Nan Hua ran towards Feng Ao Si almost immediately while Feng Ao Kuai dashed towards Nan Luo. Feng Ao Si originally want to chase after Nan Luo too, but he knew very well that his speed couldn\'t contend against either one of them.

Thus, he had to protect the flag well.

"I won\'t hand it over to you."

"You will." Nan Hua naturally would not use her treacherous method with her needles because she didn\'t want to harm Feng Ao Si. Her hand had reached down to scoop a few pebbles on the road.

Swish! Tak!

The rock landed straight on Feng Ao Si\'s shoulder, causing tremendous pain. He was stunned and immediately turned around into the bamboo forest. His action caused Nan Hua to arch her eyebrows.

Did he really think that she would have no way to deal with him when he entered the forest?

Swish!
