364: Chapter 364 Is this guy No-Face?

In the center of the teleportation array, a young man lay wearing bright yellow spongebob-print pajamas.

His hair, which was already messy to begin with, now looked like a bird's nest.

The black and gold team uniform that represented the highest honor of Magic City Martial Arts University had long since been thrown goodness knows where.

What was most critical!

The young man's eyes were tightly shut, and his chest was rising and falling with extreme regularity.

"Snore... huff... smacking sounds..."

A long, steady, and even somewhat sweet-sounding snore emanated from his nostrils.

Accompanied by the occasional smacking of his lips, a strong, pungent smell of low-quality baijiu, at least fifty-three percent proof, drifted on the breeze and instantly wafted into the noses of everyone present.

He was sleeping so soundly that there was even a clear snot bubble on the tip of his nose that grew and shrank with his breathing.

If this isn't Jiang You, who is suspected by everyone to be the peerless demon king, the mastermind behind the scenes, or even someone possessed by a high-ranking member of the Wusheng Divine Sect, then who could it be?!!

"..."

"..."

"..."

Dead silence.

A dead silence that made people frantically doubt their own lives.

President Xia Yun's dignified old face was completely frozen.

His outstretched hand hung in mid-air, trembling slightly.

The officer from the Northern Border Military Academy's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, and his chin nearly hit his instep.

Is this the peerless troll who could summon wind and rain in Forbidden Zone No. 009, playing with all the prodigies like they were marionettes?

Is this the mastermind who was deep-thinking, calculating, and ruthless?

Does your mastermind get dead drunk in a life-or-death competition secret realm, wearing spongebob pajamas, and lying on the ground blowing snot bubbles?!

"Clatter."

Someone's thermos cup slipped from their hand, falling to the ground and shattering into pieces.

This crisp sound finally broke the frozen atmosphere.

Principal Pang Ban stood where he was, looking at the student on the ground who was reeking of alcohol and sleeping soundly.

The old man took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

He suddenly felt that the way he had just argued with others, even to the point of risking his life, was like a huge joke.

Meanwhile, the official high-level figures and instructors from various schools who had been suspecting that Jiang You was the Faceless Man felt a burning sensation on their faces.

They had actually been seriously discussing whether this salted fish lying on the ground, passed out from drinking, was the Supreme Elder of the Wusheng Divine Sect?

"Let's disperse, let's disperse, stop guessing wildly."

An appraisal expert from the Organizing Committee rubbed his throbbing temples and waved his hand with a look of despair:

"If this is really a high-ranking member of the Wusheng Divine Sect possessing him... then the Wusheng Divine Sect is probably not far from bankruptcy and dissolution."

"With this kind of behavior, is he the Faceless Man who robbed all the chief prodigies clean? If he is the Faceless Man, I'll eat the stone base of this teleportation array right here on the spot!"

Following the appraisal expert's definitive conclusion, the surrounding high-level figures nodded in agreement.

That's right, even the most brilliant disguise couldn't possibly fake such realistic reactions after being drunk.

"Move aside! Everyone get out of my way!"

Principal Pang Ban of Magic City Martial Arts University finally came back to his senses from his existential crisis.

Like an enraged lion, he pushed through the crowd and rushed to Jiang You's side in one stride.

Following him was President Xia Yun, whose expression was grim.

Pang Ban grabbed the collar of Jiang You's spongebob pajamas, ignoring the pungent smell of alcohol, and frantically shook his shoulders back and forth:

"Wake up! You bastard, wake up for me!"

"Mmm... ugh..."

Shaken violently by Pang Ban like a washing machine, Jiang You's stomach, which was already churning from two catties of baijiu, instantly protested violently.

He closed his eyes and let out a dry retch, and the clear snot bubble hanging on the tip of his nose burst with a "pop."

"Who is it... can't a guy get some sleep early in the morning..."

Jiang You frowned tightly and waved his hand with extreme impatience, trying to swat away the claws grabbing him.

He groggily pried open his heavy eyelids.

His vision gradually became clear.

Then, the impatience on Jiang You's face froze instantly.

What met his eyes was Principal Pang Ban's flushed old face with his beard trembling, President Xia Yun's stern, frowning gaze, and the hundreds of official high-level figures and prodigies from various schools packed in layers around him, staring at him as if he were some kind of rare animal.

Jiang You: "..."

A cool breeze blew by, and the alcohol in Jiang You's Brain seemed to freeze in that instant.

His originally chaotic Brain forcibly completed a stuttering reboot.

What's going on?

Wasn't I under a tree in Forbidden Zone No. 009... No!

Was I forcibly possessed by the Old Master inside my body and then force-fed two bottles of baijiu?

How did I end up teleported directly to the plaza the moment I opened my eyes?

"Awake? If you're awake, speak up!"

Seeing Jiang You open his eyes, President Xia Yun didn't give him any time to buffer, asking directly in a deep voice with an unquestionable tone of seriousness:

"Student Jiang You, think carefully. Before you were teleported out, did you encounter that mysterious person wearing the Faceless Man mask?"

"Faceless Man?"

Hearing this familiar name, Jiang You's dead fish eyes widened abruptly, and several large question marks instantly appeared over his head.

Who?

The Faceless Man?

That super troll who stole underwear at Magic City Martial Arts University and then framed him for it!

Did that guy run here too?

A storm surged in Jiang You's heart, and he frantically complained in his mind:

"Is the security check here this lax? How can any random social idler sneak in to participate? Was the organizer's security system gotten for free from a shopping app?"

Seeing Jiang You staring blankly and not speaking, Pang Ban got anxious and shook him hard twice more:

"I'm asking you! Are you mute? Did you encounter him or not?"

This question stumped Jiang You.

Encounter?

He didn't encounter a damn thing!

From the moment he entered the secret realm, apart from staring at that pile of monster feces for half an hour, all he did was get force-fed alcohol by the Old Master and pass out drunk under a tree.

How would he know anything about any Faceless Man!

But...

Jiang You swallowed hard, feeling the expectant and serious gazes around him.

He couldn't possibly say: "Sorry leaders, I like to drink when I'm under pressure. I accidentally drank two catties of Erguotou inside, passed out, and didn't see anything, right?"

If he said that, let alone Pang Ban cleaning house on the spot, even these big shots from the Organizing Committee would probably drown him with their spit.

A dignified team captain drinking and passing out in a life-or-death secret realm, this is simply an unprecedented disgrace to the Great Xia Martial Arts World!

No!

Absolutely cannot tell the truth!

Must find a reason to bluff through it!

Thinking of this, Jiang You took a deep breath.

In the spirit of "better you die than me," he decisively decided to go with the flow.

Since you're asking if I encountered the Faceless Man, then I'll just say I did!

Anyway, pinning this blame on that troll isn't exactly wronging him!
