Chapter 93 - You’ve Already Got Me (3)
“The man in blue sitting over at the Lunar Shadow Academy is Pang Sen, the top genius of the Lunar Shadow Academy. He was third in the last individual competition, and he is third on the Genius Rankings.
“He also has a twin brother named Pang Lin, who ranks ninth on the Genius Rankings, and he was eighth in the previous individual competition.
“As for the Rising Dragon Academy, in addition to Huo Qing, Ye Xiao is also very difficult to deal with. He ranks fourth on the Genius Rankings and obtained fifth in the previous individual competition,” Leng Ruohan continued to introduce. They would all be Xue’er’s biggest opponents.
“Big Brother, only Huo Qing is my match among these people,” Leng Ruoxue said confidently.
“Yes, Huo Qing is now an intermediate Spiritual Sovereign. Xue’er, you have to be careful!” Leng Ruohan reminded her. As the young master of the Huo family, Huo Qing definitely had more tricks up his sleeves than everyone had seen.
“Big Brother, don’t worry. I’ll be careful.”
After waiting for more than two hours, the people on the battlefield finally began to move.
Bang! Bang! Bang! People were constantly being kicked out of the arena.
As time passed, the chaotic battle royale on the stage became more and more intense.
More and more people were thrown out of the arena, and those who remained were even more careful. With the blow of a whistle, everyone in the arena stopped at the same time. After the referee counted the number of people on stage, he immediately arranged for the second group to go on stage. The first day of the competition was over after three groups finished competing.
Leng Ruoxue and the others returned to the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion and had an early rest after dinner.
On the second day of the battle royale, there were only two groups competing. Just like yesterday, the final half hour was the real battle. After the five rounds were over, the 50 academies that advanced to the next round of the battle royale were out.
The third day of the competition was the last day of the academy battle royale, and also the most important day. After drawing lots, the 50 academies were divided into two groups. After the two rounds were over, another 30 academies were eliminated. In addition to the champion, second place, and third place of the last Academy Competition, a total of 23 academies qualified to participate in the following competition.
After the battle royale ended, there would be a two-day break before the other competitions.
…
On the fifth floor of the Elegant Lagoon Pavilion, in the guest room of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy…
“Elder Qiu, tell us the rules of the competition!” Leng Ruoxue said. Tomorrow was the true Academy Competition.
“Okay, the Academy Competition will begin with the spiritualist competition. First, it will be the preliminaires for the team competition. The thirty spiritualists of each academy will split up into five teams, and then the teams will draw lots and be divided into five groups to carry out the preliminaries. There will be five stages for the preliminaries at the same time, and the winners will enter the second round of the preliminaries.
“Tomorrow is the first round, and there will be three groups competing. Two teams from our academy will participate. Lin Yuan and Mu Li, you two are the leaders. You have to work hard tomorrow! We will go and cheer for you two,” Elder Qiu said.
“Elder Qiu, don’t worry. We will definitely advance,” Lin Yuan promised confidently.
“That’s good.” To be honest, he didn’t know much about the true strength of these students. They all liked to pretend to be weak to take advantage of others like Ruoxue after all!
“Elder Qiu, this is only the first preliminary round. What will happen in the later rounds if you’re so worried?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help asking the nervous Elder Qiu.
“I’m not worried. I’m just afraid that they will be nervous,” Elder Qiu lied. It was their first time participating in such a large-scale competition after all.
Who knows who the nervous one is. Leng Ruoxue was speechless at Elder Qiu’s stubbornness, but she didn’t intend to expose him.
“There are matches tomorrow, so everyone should rest early today.” Leng Ruoxue returned to her room after speaking.
…
Early the next morning, Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at the competition venue on time.
After the host announced the rules and said a bunch of encouragement, the competition officially began.
“You can stick your number on your clothes now,” Elder Qiu reminded them before the Heavenly Phoenix Academy’s teams went on stage.
“Okay.”
“Good luck!”
In contrast to Elder Qiu’s nervousness, Leng Ruoxue was much more relaxed. She was very confident in the strength of her subordinates. It was just the preliminaries and not a big deal.
“I’m hungry. Let’s go have something to eat. I heard the food in the Lunar Shadow Academy’s dining hall is pretty good,” Leng Ruoxue whispered to Ye Chen, who was sitting beside her.
“Okay…” Ye Chen naturally had no objections to eating.
The two of them stood up, left the competition venue as if no one else was here, and headed straight for the dining hall.
Since everyone was watching the competition and it was not time to eat yet, there were not many people in the dining hall. After ordering their food, they found a window seat and sat down.
“Move aside! This is my spot!” A female voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
The two of them, who were eating, looked up at the woman with displeasure and then lowered their heads again to continue eating.
“Did you hear me? Go away! This is the spot I like!” The woman was a little mad at being ignored.
“Scram!” Ye Chen raised his head in displeasure and spat out a single word to express his thoughts.
“You… How dare you! Do you know who I am?” the woman roared angrily. She originally had a good impression of this incomparably handsome man and even planned to let him be her man. But she didn’t expect this man to ignore her existence or to act so ungentlemanly. Hmph, such a crude and uneducated man isn’t worthy of me at all.
“I don’t care who you are. Get lost. Don’t disturb us while we’re eating,” Ye Chen said unhappily. Where did this fly come from? How annoying.
“J-just you wait! This princess won’t let you off!” The woman glared at them fiercely and then left angrily.
“You guys are in big trouble. That woman is the Northern Frost Empire’s most beloved little princess.” A boy, who was also eating in the dining hall, came over quietly to inform them.
