Chapter 30: Am I Awesome?
Without hesitation, Shen Bumian threw the man over his shoulder.
The man, caught off guard by the throw, ached all over. He opened his eyes wide again. Why did Shen Bumian, an omega, have so much strength?
He quickly scrambled up and threw a few probing straight punches, all of which were nimbly dodged by Shen Bumian. Instead, he himself was hit several times by Shen Bumian, each punch landing solidly and painfully.
Shen Bumian raised his arm to block one of his punches and kicked him, knocking him to the ground again. “Damn, how do you know how to fight?”
Shen Bumian sneered, “When I was practicing fighting, you were still looking for your mother!”
His family members were no slouches; three top-tier Alphas had taught him various techniques since he was a child. He had mastered these simple fighting styles long ago.
No one had come looking for trouble with him in years, so he was a little rusty, but it was more than enough to teach this straight A cancer a lesson.
The first half of the match finally ended amidst the one-sided beating from Shen Bumian and Qin Luzhi.
The two opponents felt like their bones were about to fall apart.
Shen Bumian and his partner were very good at picking their spots; every place they hit would ache for a long time before the pain subsided.
As soon as the time was up, they looked at each other and immediately released their pheromones.
The arena had a barrier, so the pheromones wouldn’t spread to the audience, but everyone else could tell by watching the countdown and the four motionless figures.
They had begun their pheromone battle.
Although Qin Luzhi’s pheromone strength was obvious to all, facing two A-level Alphas, others didn’t know if Shen Bumian could withstand it.
Thinking about the pheromone test at the start of the school year which said Shen Bumian also had 3S-level pheromones, they were all a little curious.
On the stage, the pheromones grew thicker, filling the entire barrier. As they were both Alphas, their pheromones repelled each other, which was also a bit uncomfortable.
But there was no choice; the match was still ongoing.
They had to overwhelm one of them. Shen Bumian was an omega and probably couldn’t take it. When that happened, Qin Luzhi would be distracted, and their opportunity would come.
Shen Bumian suddenly moved. He supported himself on the edge of the barrier and slowly slumped down, lowering his head and panting slightly.
One hand covered his heart while the other was clenched into a tight fist, as if he were enduring something with great effort.
Everyone held their breath, watching Shen Bumian on the stage. Many wished they could just grab Shen Bumian and leave; this stupid match wasn’t worth fighting.
The two opponents were overjoyed. Just as they thought, even with 3S-level pheromones, an omega couldn’t resist an Alpha’s pheromones in the end.
Even Qin Luzhi unconsciously walked over to Shen Bumian and knelt down, releasing his own pheromones to both suppress the two opponents and try to soothe Shen Bumian.
However, the person he was loosely holding gently rested his forehead on his shoulder. Qin Luzhi froze, feeling Shen Bumian’s breath.
Then, he heard Shen Bumian’s very soft laugh and his voice, which was neither loud nor soft.
“Qin Luzhi, they’re so ridiculous. Is this all they’ve got?”
The two men were already uncomfortable under the pressure of Qin Luzhi’s pheromones. Hearing this, they became even angrier, directing their attack at Shen Bumian. “Is that it? Aren’t you still…”
…being affected by us?
Shen Bumian lifted his head and gently pushed Qin Luzhi, signaling for him to move aside. Qin Luzhi paused for a moment, then stood up.
Suddenly, the space felt empty.
Shen Bumian still wore a mocking smile on his face. He stood up, his eyes relaxed. He didn’t look uncomfortable in the slightest.
Even his tone was cheerful. “Still what? Pressured by your pheromones?”
The two opponents hadn’t expected Shen Bumian to be faking it and were tricked. They grew even angrier, but they couldn’t find the words to refute him.
Shen Bumian took two steps forward. His discomfort wasn’t entirely an act; for a few seconds just now, he had indeed felt a pain in his heart.
He wasn’t affected by the two’s pheromones at all. On the contrary, the two opponents were trembling slightly under the pressure of Qin Luzhi’s pheromones.
When they heard Shen Bumian’s demonic whisper, they still hadn’t realized the gravity of the situation.
“It’s only polite to return a favor. You’ve been releasing your pheromones for so long, shouldn’t it be my turn?”
Shen Bumian removed the inhibitor ring from his neck, and the scent of Withered Wood Rose was completely released.
The two men’s pheromones within the barrier were completely overwhelmed. An immense pressure washed over them, and within seconds, they fell to their knees with a thud.
They instinctively covered their glands to ease the pain, but under the oppression of the Withered Wood Rose, all their efforts were futile.
Shen Bumian controlled his pheromones, constantly pressing down on the two men’s glands. Never before had they regretted challenging these two as much as they did at this moment.
They were wrong. Shen Bumian wasn’t a soft persimmon at all; he was a devil, a devil disguised in a friendly cloak.
They wanted to beg for mercy, to press the surrender button to end the match.
However, Shen Bumian sensed their intentions and instructed Qin Luzhi, “Qin Luzhi, make it so they can’t move or speak.”
Qin Luzhi didn’t hear Shen Bumian’s words at all. He was staring at the fair neck of the person in front of him.
The gland was right before his eyes. The high concentration of pheromones in the air lingered at the tip of his nose, and a voice in his heart kept tempting him: mark him, possess him.
Not hearing a response, Shen Bumian turned around in confusion, only to meet Qin Luzhi’s unreadable gaze.
Instinct told him he was in danger, and he subconsciously took a step back. “Qin Luzhi?”
Qin Luzhi snapped back to reality, his eyes darting away. This time, he heard Shen Bumian’s words clearly. “Mm.”
He raised his hand and activated his gravity ability. The two men felt as if all the air around them had vanished.
Their bodies felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, rendering them completely immobile. Their throats felt as if they were filled with lead, unable to make a sound.
Shen Bumian didn’t know why Qin Luzhi’s voice had suddenly become so hoarse, so he decided to ignore it.
He slightly retracted his pheromones, prolonging the two men’s lingering agony.
The two of them felt that time was passing exceptionally slowly; all they wanted was for the match to end quickly, but they couldn’t press the surrender button, nor could they speak.
The pheromones continued to crush them relentlessly, and gradually, they couldn’t even lift their heads.
Qin Luzhi sensed that the scent of the pheromones had faded a little and knew that Shen Bumian was slowly retracting them, feeling a bit of regret.
He had long since withdrawn his own pheromones, leaving the main stage to Shen Bumian.
But just now, he had almost lost control of his own pheromones, barely restraining himself by clenching his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms.
It must have been bleeding; the slight stinging pain was what allowed him to barely maintain his sanity.
The pheromones were completely withdrawn. Shen Bumian told Qin Luzhi to retract his ability, and Qin Luzhi nodded as before.
The gravity ability and Cross Hunt were withdrawn. The two men collapsed to the ground, rolling their eyes in agony, and pressed the surrender button without a shred of hesitation.
With that, the match was over.
Shen Bumian watched as the two were carried away by the staff, feeling a bit of satisfaction.
He gently nudged Qin Luzhi with his elbow, his face beaming with a smile. “How was it? Am I awesome?”
Qin Luzhi glanced sideways at the smiling Shen Bumian, whose eyes were curved into crescents, and couldn’t help but chuckle softly. He nodded sincerely, “Yes, Awesome. You’re the most awesome.”
Hearing that Qin Luzhi’s praise wasn’t feigned, Shen Bumian’s smile deepened, and he felt very happy inside, though on the surface, he pursed his lips reservedly. “It was alright, I guess.”
Qin Luzhi watched the proud and humble omega, laughing inwardly.
It was as if he wasn’t the same person who had just asked if he was amazing. Yet, he found this version of Shen Bumian to be so vibrant and very cute.
What Qin Luzhi didn’t know was that when he was with Shen Bumian, he smiled much more often.
And Shen Bumian, having grown accustomed to this way of interacting, hadn’t noticed this change at all.
