Chapter 46
The moment Raven’s voice fell, everyone around her couldn’t help but be stunned.
Then, they all looked at Raven as if she were a freak.
If they hadn’t known the ins and outs of the matter today, they would have thought that Brian was not Amber’s brother, but Raven’s brother.
However, they had to admire Raven’s fearlessness in being able to say such righteous words under such circumstances.
Standing beside Brian Jennings, Amber was stunned for a moment after hearing Raven’s words.
The next moment, she suddenly laughed out. She had to admit that Raven was the most fearless person she had ever met.
But Amber knew that even if Raven wasn’t afraid of death, after offending her, there was no way she would have a good ending today.
Even though she was eager to watch a drama, Amber still had a look of self–reproach and helplessness on her face.
“Raven, how my brother wants to deal with you is certainly not for you to teach,” she said.

“But don’t worry, after you go in, I’ll have my brother find someone to give you a mental examination. After all, you’re already talking nonsense before you even go in, this is really not…”
As Amber spoke, the mockery in the eyes of everyone around her looking at Raven grew stronger.
But before Amber could finish her sentence, something unexpected happened.
“Slap!”
A loud, sharp slap echoed through the room.
Amber gasped, her left cheek burning as she instinctively raised her hand to cover it. A distinct palm print was already forming on her skin, and her eyes were wide with shock as she looked at Brian.
It was not just Amber; almost everyone around them was stunned by Brian’s sudden slap.
Why did Brian suddenly hit his own sister? They couldn’t understand.
Even if he were to hit someone, shouldn’t it be Raven?
“Brian? Why did you…”
Amber asked, her voice filled with shock and confusion.
Brian Jennings stood there, his gaze cold as ice, locking eyes with his sister.
“Who allowed you to wear my uniform?” he asked, his voice low and dangerous.
Amber stumbled back, her face paling. Brian had always treated her well, from childhood to adulthood, and had rarely even raised his voice at her.
She had never imagined that Brian would one day question her in such a tone.
Seeing that Amber grew quiet, Brian turned toward Raven, his expression softening slightly, though his tone remained firm.
“Miss Valor, my sister… she’s spoiled. I never imagined she would dare to steal and wear my uniform.”
Amber’s mouth dropped open. “Brian, she was the one who stole and wore the uniform. Why are you…”

Brian barked, cutting her off. “Shut up!”
Then he turned back to Raven, a forced smile on his face. “Miss Valor…”
However, Raven directly raised her hand to stop him from saying anything else.
“Since she has said that she wants to deal with it according to Vyrdenian law, then let’s do it according to the law,” said Raven.
Brian could already tell from Raven’s face that she would not change her mind.
He opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only helplessly reply, “Understood.”
Amber was completely dumbfounded when she heard that Brian was actually going to deal with her according to Vyrdenian law.
According to Vyrdenian regulations, she would have to spend at least ten years in prison!
At this moment, she couldn’t care less about why Brian was so respectful to Raven. In extreme fear, she grabbed Brian’s arm desperately.
“Brian, she’s just a convict. Why are you so afraid of her? You’re my brother, what’s wrong with me wearing your clothes?”
She then turned to Raven again, her tone mocking. “What qualifications does a waste like her have…”
Before Amber could finish speaking, her mouth was suddenly tightly covered by Brian.
Brian clenched his jaw, trying to remain composed. He didn’t answer but instead, with a forced smile, looked at Raven.
“Miss Valor, I will take her to the jail now. Please excuse us!”
Raven nodded, her expression unreadable as Amber’s fury burned in her eyes.
Brian was relieved to see that Raven did not pursue Amber’s extremely disrespectful words to her.
Then, wasted no time, he dragged Amber out of the banquet hall as fast as he could.
The room fell silent. Everyone stared at the empty space where Brian and Amber had just stood, unable to process what had just happened.
Could someone tell them what was going on? They couldn’t process.
As Amber’s elder brother, shouldn’t Brian help his sister?
However, just because Raven said that she would deal with her according to Vyrdenian law, he directly dragged Amber out of the banquet hall in public and said that he would send her to jail. This seemed unacceptable.
They heard that Brian Jennings and Amber had a very good relationship. Why was he so quick to side with Raven today?
Was it because Raven got into Regalhold University? But this reason still could not stand alone.
Even if Raven was qualified to enter Regalhold University, she’s just an ordinary student at Regalhold University. There was no way a colonel would listen
to her like that.
The next moment, some people suddenly recalled that when Brian handed the acceptance letter to Raven, he called someone “general.”
A murmur swept through the crowd. Was Raven secretly connected to someone powerful in the military? Someone who owed her a favor?
That seemed to be the only possibility.
Some of them had a hint of fear in their eyes. If she had a hig shot backing her up, then they really couldn’t afford to offend her.
And in the eyes of many people, there was obvious envy.

The tall, thin girl, who had been so smug earlier, now looked at Raven with resentment, her eyes burning with jealousy.
She couldn’t understand why. Why was a convict–someone who had just been released from prison–so lucky? Was it just because she had connections?
Just because she knew someone with a prominent identity, she not only got the qualification to enter Regalhold University, but also made Brian send his own sister to prison.
Raven caught the girl’s gaze and, with a small, knowing smile, raised the acceptance letter high.
“Now,” she said, “are you going to keep your promise?”
The girl stared at Raven, biting her lip in frustration.
“I said you had to get into Regalhold University through your own merit, not by using connections,” she spat, her voice trembling with bitterness.
“Don’t you know that Regalhold University has a fixed number of students every year?”
“You used some underhanded means to get a spot, which means that a student who could have gotten into Regalhold University has lost that spot. Doesn’t your conscience hurt to have taken what rightfully belongs to someone else?”
Raven frowned slightly as she looked at her. “So you’re taking your words back?”
The tall, thin girl gave a cold laugh, feeling glad that she finally had the chance to make her point.
She raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of arrogance and disdain as she looked at Raven.
“If you got it on your own merit, I will naturally fulfill my promise, but, did you?”
Perhaps because she was in a good mood, Raven was surprisingly patient at the moment.
She looked at the tall and thin girl and raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean by ‘merit‘?”
Hearing this, the girl smiled and looked at Raven.
“Academic achievements are not easy to verify here, but to enter Regalhold University, you must pass the combat test. I have passed the combat test of Regalhold University before. As long as you can defeat me, I will keep my promise!”
She had seen Raven take down the dozen or so members of the Fuller family before, so she knew that Raven had some skills.
But she believed that if it were her, she would not be worse than Raven. With all her strength, she could be even faster.
However, at almost the exact moment those words left her mouth, a shadow flashed before her eyes.
“Bang!”
In the next instant, the girl was sent flying backward, a powerful force slamming into her stomach.
With a resounding crash, her body collided with a table, shattering it and the tableware atop it into countless pieces.
The surrounding onlookers gasped at her misfortune, unable to help themselves.
As for the girl, she could only whimper, overwhelmed by the intense pain in her abdomen.
Then, through her pain–blurred vision, she saw a figure slowly walking towards her. Raven’s ice–cold voice then echoed through the hall.
“Now, am I qualified to have you fulfill your promise?”
