Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the second round of the battle, Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan also used array disks to defeat their opponents. They were so fast that everyone below the ring couldn’t help being secretly speechless.
At the same time, they estimated how many formation disks Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan had in their hands.
Of course, many people also thought that Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan won completely because their opponents were competing against the “tycoons”.
Therefore, they were very disdainful of the two of them, who were “opportunistic” in their minds.
However, no matter what others thought in their minds, most people in Hongtian Academy were very happy.
As for that small group of people who weren’t, they were undoubtedly those who had a grudge against Lu Zijia and the others.
Bang!
“Oh!”
Lu Xing was pressed down by MO Qingzhu from Jianheng Academy step by step. In the end, he was sent flying out of the arena by MO Qingzhu’s majestic and fierce sword energy.
Lu Xing held his chest and swallowed the blood that surged to his throat.
“Thank you for letting me win.” MO Qingzhu cupped his hands at Lu Xing, then flew down the arena and walked towards the area where his academy was.
“No way! Senior Brother Lu Xing actually lost( How could Senior Brother Lu Xing lose? It shouldn’t be!”
“Right! Senior Brother Lu Xing is a Golden Core cultivator and his sword techniques are very outstanding. Why did he lose?”
“Senior Brother Lu Xing is at the early-stage Golden Core realm, and MO Qingzhu is also at the early-stage Golden Core realm. Moreover, her sword technique is even better than Senior Brother Lu Xing’s. It’s normal for Senior Brother Lu Xing to lose.”
“That’s a pity. I thought Senior Brother Lu Xing would at least walk to the end. I didn’t expect Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan to advance further.”
“I know, right? It was really unexpected!”
“Dean Du, as the Dean of the Martial Arts Department, aren’t you being too unfair?”
While everyone was discussing, the second princess, Xuanyuan Wei, suddenly stood up and defended Lu Xing, whose face was ashen.
“Senior Brother Lu is also a student of your Martial Arts Department. How can you only prepare resources for the other four participants and not Senior Brother Lu? This is not fair to Senior Brother Lu at all!”
Being questioned by a junior in public during the competition of the four continents, Du He’s old face instantly darkened. “How do you know that I didn’t prepare anything for him?!”
Meeting Du He’s sharp gaze, Xuanyuan Wei couldn’t help feeling a bit weak.
However, when she thought that this matter was unfair and all she did was to point it out, she immediately became self-righteous again.
However, before she could speak again, Lu Xing interrupted her.
“Princess, stop talking. The dean didn’t treat me unfairly.”
On the first day he set off from Hongtian Academy, the dean pulled the strings for him, but he refused to buy a batch of resources from Lu Zijia.
Thinking back now, he vaguely regretted it in his mind.
However, what he said made Xuanyuan Wei think that he spoke up for Du He because he didn’t want to offend him.
“Senior Brother Lu, why are you taking it upon yourself? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Dean Du is being unfair. If it weren’t for Dean Du, with your strength, how would you have lost?”
Xuanyuan Wei said matter-of-factly, as if Lu Xing should be the final winner.
As soon as Xuanyuan Wei said this, Lu Xing’s expression immediately became even uglier, and Du He was so enraged by Xuanyuan Wei’s words that he laughed.
Sensing that something was wrong with Lu Xing’s expression, Xuanyuan Fan stood up to smooth things over. “Wei’er, you’re too presumptuous.. How can you talk to Dean Du like this?”
