Chapter 955 - Five Consecutive Defeats

Chapter 955 Five Consecutive Defeats

When Ouyang Lan issued the order, the Associate Director of the North Academy, Hai Zhengming, jumped onto the arena. He assumed the role of referee for today’s competition.

The great significance of the referee for the competition mode, the battle of the king, was to ensure the safety of the members on both sides. As for the final result, the one who remained standing in the arena was the victor.

Qin Haodong brought the 10 students from the North Academy to their seats. On the other side of the arena, Tu Jiaojiao, as the leader of the South Academy team also walked in, followed by her teammates.

They were on both sides of the arena and were very far away from each other, but the vision of cultivation artists was excellent. Therefore, they nodded at each other from a distance.

At this moment, Qin Haodong was suddenly stunned. His eyes fell on the man seated next to Tu Jiaojiao. That man was You Wanjian.

But You Wanjian had clearly died in the Seven Storeys Pagoda. He had been torn into pieces by the Hellhounds summoned by the Little Witch. How did he suddenly come back to participate in the competition?

He asked Murong Jinghong next to him, “Is that You Wanjian?”

“He is not You Wanjian. He is You Wanjian’s twin brother, You Wanren,” Murong Jinghong said. “You Wanjian and You Wanren are both outstanding persons of the South Academy.

“You Wanren did not participate in the experience of the Seven Storeys Pagoda this time. He cultivated at home.”

Qin Haodong nodded. He finally understood what was going on.

At this time, You Wanren also saw Qin Haodong and the others. He strode over.

“Are you Qin Haodong?”

Qin Haodong nodded and said, “Yes.”

“Did you kill my brother?”

Qin Haodong said, “Your brother asked for it. He brought about his own destruction.”

He did not explain the situation that took place at that time. Even if he had not been in a coma, he would have killed You Wanjian with his own hands.

“Then you killed him.” You Wanren’s eyes were as fierce as that of a beast. He said, “Today, I will not only make myself the king of Tortoise Academy but I will also avenge my brother.”

Qin Haodong indifferently said, “It’s up to you. As long as you have the ability.”

“See you in the arena!”

After saying that, You Wanren turned around and returned to the team of the South Academy.

Murong Jinghong said, “Don’t underestimate this person. You Wanjian was known as the first person in the South Academy because You Wanren took the initiative to admit defeat in their fight.

“Some people speculate that the real strength of You Wanren was above that of You Wanjian.”

Qin Haodong nodded. However, he didn’t take You Wanren seriously.

At this time, Hai Zhengming said in the arena, “The competition has begun. Both sides, send out your contestants to compete.”

Qin Haodong looked at his teammates. Then, he said to Song Junyu, “Senior Sister Song, I’ll leave the first round to you.”

In the face of such a special mode of competition, there was not much difficulty to speak of in the beginning. The teammates with lower cultivations would be used to wear down the strength of the other party.

The teammates who had a chance of winning the competition would naturally stay behind to compete. After all, no matter how strong they were, they would not be able to win 10 rounds in a row.

What was troubling were the last few people to compete. If they competed early, too much of their strength would be consumed by the other side. Thus, they might not be able to reach the end.

However, if they competed later, his or her companions would be able to defeat the rest of the members from the other side. Then, it would no longer be his or her turn to become the king.

According to this logic, the two who had the chance to win the title of king would definitely be the last two students in the arena.

Song Junyu’s face immediately darkened. Although she had never thought that she could win today’s competition, she had not expected that she would be the first to be sent out.

Because she was the first one to compete, it could only prove that she was treated as cannon fodder to pave the way for her companions.

However, Luo Dongqing had already stated that the one who did not listen to the arrangement of the leader would be automatically disqualified from the competition. Therefore, although she was extremely dissatisfied in her heart, she could only walk to the arena with a livid face.

“How dare a freshman who has just entered the academy use me as cannon fodder? I’ll show you my strength later.”

Song Junyu secretly made up her mind. At this time, the best way of proving herself as a powerful person was to win. As long as she won a few rounds in a row, it would be a slap in Qin Haodong’s face.

After she got on the arena, a male student named Gao Qi was also sent by the South Academy.

Murong Jinghong stood side by side with Qin Haodong. She whispered, “What do you think? Can Song Junyu win the first round?”

Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “We will lose.”

He’d already discerned the cultivation of Gao Qi clearly. The cultivation of Gao Qi was the late stage of the Voiding Realm, a level higher than that of Song Junyu, who was at the middle stage of the Voiding Realm.

Tu Jiaojiao sent such a powerful person to compete at the beginning. It looked like the South Academy had placed a lot of importance on the first round. They wanted to take the initiative.

However, in this kind of competition, winning the first round wasn’t important. Moreover, winning a few rounds in a row wasn’t important either. What was important was who had the last laugh.

On the arena, Hai Zhengming said to the two people, “I’ll announce the rules of the competition. First, this competition is between students from our academy. It is not a life-and-death fight. You must show mercy.

“The one who kills his or her opponent will be disqualified.

“Second, with the exception of summoners, demonic beasts are not allowed to participate in…”

After hearing this rule, Murong Jinghong said, “It seems that you can’t use your Three-legged Golden Toad.”

Qin Haodong smiled. “It doesn’t matter. I hope you can directly win the title of king. Then, I won’t have to compete.”

Murong Jinghong shook her head and said, “It’s very difficult. Normally, I’m no match for Sister Jiaojiao.”

Hai Zhengming announced a few rules in succession. Next, he announced the start of the competition.

Song Junyu was already full of energy and wanted to take Gao Qi down in one fell swoop. When she heard the word “start”, the long sword in her hand immediately turned into a flash of light and reached out.

Gao Qi was very tall. However, when he moved, he was extremely flexible.

He did not use a weapon. His body lightly dodged the sword like a ghost. At the same time, he broke through the protective circle of the sword and came toward Song Junyu.

His fighting style was simple and crude. Before the long sword returned to defend, his two fists were like raindrops, not only hitting the face and chest of Song Junyu but also completely blocking all the areas that Song Junyu could try and dodge.

Song Junyu had already thrust her long sword out. It was too late for her to withdraw her sword and defend. Feeling desperate, she had no choice but to tiptoe and quickly retreat. She was trying to get rid of Gao Qi’s attack and sort out her moves.

However, Gao Qi did not give her a chance at all. His body was like a sharp arrow leaving the bowstring, following her like her shadow. He punched out with both fists in succession.

Both of them were masters at the stage of the Voiding Realm. One moved forward while the other retreated at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the back of Song Junyu hit the guardrail of the arena. There was no way out for her.

At the same time, Gao Qi’s fist came to her face.

In despair, Song Junyu raised her left hand and hit out with her fist as well.

A muffled bang resounded as the two fists collided. Gao Qi’s advantage in cultivation was undoubtedly shown. He blasted Song Junyu off the arena with a single punch.

Song Junyu’s feet landed on the ground. Although she was not seriously injured, her face was livid.

Just now, she wanted to show her strength and prove herself. However, she didn’t expect that she would be defeated in just one move on the arena. What a shame!

The onlookers immediately became noisy. They didn’t expect that the first round would end as soon as it began. There was indeed some disparity in strength.

Murong Jinghong said, “The students of the South Academy are indeed strong.

“In this experience of the Seven Storeys Pagoda, the South Academy’s losses were extremely great. Not only did they lose You Wanjian, but they also lost eight students at the stage of the Voiding Realm.

“Originally, I thought that the strength of the South Academy would decline. I didn’t expect that they would be so fierce at the beginning.”

Qin Haodong shook his head and said, “The strength of Senior Sister Song is indeed not as good as that of Gao Qi. However, if she hadn’t been careless, she wouldn’t have lost so quickly.”

At this moment, Hai Zhengming said in the arena, “Gao Qi from the South Academy won this round. The North Academy will continue to send out a student to compete.”

“Senior Brother, please work hard.”

Qin Haodong sent another student to compete in the arena.

However, Gao Qi was indeed fierce. His cultivation was high. His fighting style was fierce. This student of the North Academy only lasted ten moves before being knocked out of the arena.

Next, the third, fourth and fifth students of the North Academy were defeated by Gao Qi one after another in less than half an hour. The North Academy had lost five rounds in a row.

“What is the North Academy doing? Aren’t they too weak?”

“Did you see that? This is the strength of our South Academy. The North Academy doesn’t even have the ability to fight back!”

“In this case, Senior Brother Gao Qi can win the final competition alone…”

After losing five rounds in a row, the students of the South Academy were very excited. On the side of the North Academy, everyone was spiritless. There weren’t even any sounds of cheering.

In the stand, Ouyang Lan said to Luo Dongqing, “Geezer, your cultivation has improved a lot, but your students don’t seem to be able to do it. They seem to have lost more miserably than they did every year!”

Luo Dongqing remained indifferent. “Old lady, it’s too early for you to rejoice. Our grandson-in-law isn’t so easy to deal with. I have a feeling that you’ll definitely lose this year.”

Ouyang Lan scornfully said, “You stubborn duck. You have already lost so badly but you are still putting up a strong front.”

On the side of the reserve seats, Wang Zhiliang discontentedly said, “Qin Haodong, how did you make the arrangements? We have lost five rounds in a row!”

“Don’t worry. We will not lose even if we lose another round.” Qin Haodong smiled at him. “You’ll compete in the next round.”

“Fine, I’ll go.”

Wang Zhiliang had been observing under the arena for a long time. He had seen most of the methods and skills used by Gao Qi. Both of them had reached the late stage of the Voiding Realm.

However, Gao Qi had fought for five consecutive rounds. Although he had won each of them, it was a huge drain on his strength. Thus, there was no doubt that he would win this time.

As soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly realized something was wrong. “You let me compete in this round and said this round would be lost. Are you cursing me?

“Damn it. I’ll show you my strength today.”

He angrily rushed to the arena. After the beginning of this round, he fiercely punched Gao Qi’s chest with his fist and the force was like a gust of wind.

Gao Qi did not give in. He also threw out a punch. The two fists collided with a bang.

Wang Zhiliang took three or four steps back, while Gao Qi took seven or eight steps back in succession.

In a head-on fight, the gap between their cultivation was obvious. They were both at the late stage of the Voiding Realm, but Gao Qi had used up a lot of his strength already.

Wang Zhiliang soon gained the upper hand and didn’t stop. After one move, he launched overwhelming attacks on Gao Qi in succession.

For a moment, the situation completely changed. Gao Qi, who was originally full of energy, was completely suppressed by Wang Zhiliang. After a dozen moves, he could only defend himself and had no way to fight back.

After seeing this situation, the students of the North Academy, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly became excited. They began to cheer for Wang Zhiliang.

Fang Qiong’er said, “It seems that we can finally win a round.”

Qin Haodong said, “If Wang Zhiliang can restrain his arrogance and impetuousness, we will win this round. But judging from the current situation, he can’t win.”

Yun Qianqian said, “How is that possible? We already have such a big advantage. Victory is only a matter of time.”

Qin Haodong said, “Gao Qi is more powerful than you think. Although he is at a disadvantage, it is definitely not as serious as what he is showing now. All of this is an act.

“Just wait and see. He will fight back soon.”
