Chapter 974 All Was Fair in War
These people from the Dragon Academy were the strongest in the past competitions. In addition, they were of noble birth, and most of them were nobles of the Dragon Kingdom. Thus, they were used to being rude and unreasonable.
Pang Ban used 70% of his strength to slap Qin Haodong in order to directly make a fool of him.
Unexpectedly, before he could even touch the corner of his clothes, his wrist was held in a tight grip.
Qin Haodong sneered and said, âWant to rob us of food?! Unfortunately, you donât have the strength!â
âYouâre courting death!â
Pang Ban was shamed into anger. In order to regain his dignity, he immediately used all his strength and tried to send Qin Haodong flying based on his cultivation.
However, to his disappointment, no matter how he activated his Genuine Qi, the other side still did not move and held on tightly to his wrist.
âGet lost!â
Qin Haodong shook his hand. Then, Pang Ban was directly thrown out.
Pang Ban was thrown out like a flying broken sack. He crashed into the wall next door.
The wall did not block him because the force was too strong. He went straight through the wall and knocked over the dining table he was eating at earlier.
Lu Mingju and Zhao Longâs faces greatly changed at this time. In the previous competitions, the people of the Tortoise Academy who could reach the final stage of the Voiding Realm were all masters. How did he become so powerful now?
One must know that Pang Ban was a master at the early stage of the Combination Realm. The person who was able to defeat Pang Ban so easily was at least at the early stage of the Combination Realm.
When Qin Haodong made his move, the Little Witch and the others had surrounded Lu Mingju and Zhao Long. âDo you think our Tortoise Academy is that easy to bully? Today, we will teach you a lesson.â
âSure, do it if you want. Who is afraid!â
Lu Mingju was used to being arrogant. Although the other side was extraordinary, she did not take him seriously. After all, Pang Ban was not the strongest in the Dragon Academy.
âStop!â
Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, the door opened again. The noblewoman of the Dragon Academy came in from outside. She was followed by three other people and Pang Ban whose face was covered with dust.
âYou want to engage in a gang fight? Then come. I am not afraid of you.â
The Little Witch had always been devilish. She was never afraid of blowing things up. At this moment, her eyes flickered with excitement.
The woman glanced at the Little Witch and did not get angry instantly. She said, âLet me introduce myself. Iâm Li Mengyao, the second princess of the Dragon Kingdom.â
The Little Witch sneered. âWhatâs so great about a princess? My Little Brother is the son-in-law of the kingdom!â
Li Mengyaoâs expression changed. When âprincessâ and âson-in-law of the kingdomâ were put together, it was easy to make people fall into a reverie. In her opinion, the people from the Tortoise Academy were taking advantage of her.
She coldly said, âDoes your Tortoise Academy really want to make things difficult for our Dragon Academy?â
âYou think too much,â Qin Haodong said. âBefore this, we didnât know who you were at all. You came here to look for trouble.â
Li Mengyao gloomily said, âIn that case, do you dare to have a fight with us?â
âAbsolutely. Thereâs nothing to be afraid of!â
The Little Witch looked excited.
After the second awakening of her Holy Spirit Body, her cultivation was much higher than before. She had reached the early stage of the Combination Realm. She had always wanted to find an opponent to fight with.
Li Mengyao said, âThis is not a suitable place for a fight. One hour later, our Dragon Academy will wait for you outside the western gate of Rosefinch City. I hope you wonât disappoint us.â
Lu Mingju arrogantly shouted, âTortoise Academy, donât admit defeat!â
The Little Witch said, âYou are the ones who will admit defeat. Iâm afraid you wonât dare to go and fight!â
Li Mengyao grunted coldly and didnât speak. Then, she directly led the others away.
After they left, Tu Jiaojiao said with a heavy expression, âAmong the four academies in the Lingwu Continent, the Dragon Academy is the strongest. We must not be careless.â
The Little Witch did not care and said, âWhatâs so great about it? We are now the strongest in the history of the Tortoise Academy. Moreover, we still have my Little Brother here. Thereâs nothing he canât settle.â
Tu Jiaojiao thought about it and agreed. When they came to the exchange conference last time, the strongest one was only at the final stage of the Voiding Realm.
This time, Fang Qiongâer and Yun Qianqian who had reached the final stage of the Voiding Realm were the weakest among them. The others had reached the stage of the Combination Realm.
This kind of strength was not only the strongest in the history of the Tortoise Academy but was also not the least inferior to the other three academies.
Qin Haodong said, âAnyway, we are all here to participate in the competition. There will be a fight sooner or later. Letâs eat first and then go to the western gate.â
The Little Witch smiled and said, âThatâs right. Only when we are full will we have the strength to fight.â
After that, she picked up her chopsticks and started to eat the delicious food on the table.
One hour later, the six of them arrived at an empty space outside of the western gate of Rosefinch City.
This was a very remote location, so it was the perfect place to fight.
When they arrived, these people from the Dragon Academy were already waiting there.
Qin Haodong said, âTell me how you want to compete.â
Li Mengyaoâs face flashed with arrogance. âWe donât have time to waste with you. Since weâre all here to participate in the exchange conference, letâs bring forward the competition.
âAccording to the rules of the exchange conference, best of five, the loser will admit defeat on the spot on the day of the exchange conference.
âHow about it? Do you dare to compete with us?â
The Little Witch cried out, âWe certainly dare. Why would we be afraid of you?â
Li Mengyao said, âDo you have the right to decide?â
âI donât, but my Little Brother does. He is the king of our Tortoise Academy.â The Little Witch turned to Qin Haodong and said, âLittle Brother, compete with them.â
Li Mengyao looked at Qin Haodong curiously. She was also the leader of the Dragon Academy for the exchange conference last year, but she had never seen the young man in front of her.
These people from the Tortoise Academy were all centered around this person. However, he didnât participate in the competition last year. Could it be that he was the hidden trump card of the Tortoise Academy? Or, he had won the respect of these people as soon as he entered the academy?
Qin Haodong said, âOkay! Weâll do as you say. Weâll consider the competition today as the competition of the exchange conference.â
âItâs a deal.â Li Mengyao looked back at her teammates and said, âWho will fight in the first round?â
âIâll do it!â
Zhao Long was the first to jump out. He was the strongest among the male students in the Dragon Academy.
Li Mengyao nodded. âAlright! Then, Iâll leave the first round to you.â
Zhao Long came to the center of the field and looked at the people of Tortoise Academy. He said, âWhich one of you will fight first?â
The Little Witch was just about to step forward but Qin Haodong pulled her back. He said to Tu Jiaojiao, âSenior Sister, Iâll leave the first round to you.â
He had already seen through the cultivation of the other party. The strongest ones were Li Mengyao and Lu Mingju, who had both reached the middle stage of the Combination Realm.
According to the rules of this exchange conference, best of five, each person could only fight one round, regardless of victory or defeat.
Under such circumstances, appropriate tactical adjustments should be made. Except for himself and the Little Witch, whose strength was extremely unstable, Tu Jiaojiao was the strongest among them. Moreover, she also had rich combat experience, so he was very confident that she could beat the man from the other side.
The Little Witch was not dissatisfied with the decision of Qin Haodong. She directly stepped back, while Tu Jiaojiao strode to the center of the field.
When he saw Tu Jiaojiao, Zhao Long sneered in disdain. âTu Jiaojiao, I really donât know who gave you the courage to do that. Have you forgotten how you lost last year?â
Coincidentally, Zhao Long was Tu Jiaojiaoâs opponent in the exchange conference last year. At that time, she was knocked out of the arena within three moves.
Tu Jiaojiao said helplessly, âI canât do anything about it. Although Iâm no match for you, the leader has already given the order. I can only come up and fight.â
The Little Witch pouted and said, âWhatâs going on? Sister Jiaojiao chickened out before the fight? It would be better if you had let me fight this round!â
Qin Haodong smiled and said, âItâs not cowardice. Itâs tactics. Your Sister Jiaojiao is playing tricks.â
He recognized Tu Jiaojiaoâs tactics at a glance. Even if she could defeat Zhao Long, she would pay a heavy price. At this time, it was extremely smart to show weakness to the enemy.
Zhao Long was not as capable as Qin Haodong, so he could not see the depth of her cultivation. He thought that Tu Jiaojiao was still at the final stage of the Voiding Realm.
He proudly said, âIf I were you, I would just admit defeat directly so as not to lose face.â
Tu Jiaojiao said pitifully, âThat wonât do. Our leader is very fierce. If I admit defeat, Iâm afraid he wonât let me eat for three days. Letâs exchange a few moves at least.â
âWell, Iâll help you achieve your aim!â
After saying that, Zhao Long raised his palm and slapped Tu Jiaojiao. The palm strike was full of momentum, with a faint whistling sound of tearing space.
Tu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and also struck out with all her strength. However, she secretly suppressed her cultivation to the final stage of the Voiding Realm.
The two palms collided with a bang. Tu Jiaojiao flew out dozens of meters like a stringless kite and took another seven or eight steps back before barely managing to steady herself.
Lu Mingju pursed her lips and disdainfully said, âHow dare you provoke our Dragon Academy at this level? You are simply stupid.â
Tu Jiaojiaoâs face turned red. She shouted, âAgain!â
After saying that, she shifted and pounced on Zhao Long like a phantom.
âYou overestimate yourself!â
Zhao Long casually waved his sleeve and sent Tu Jiaojiao flying once more.
âTu Jiaojiao, I advise you to give up. You blocked three of my moves last year. Itâs impossible for you to surpass that number this year.â
âVictory or defeat, we have to fight first!â
After saying that, she jumped into the air again and grabbed Zhao Longâs face with both hands. However, she seemed to have suffered some light injuries. Her movement was much slower than before.
âYou wonât give up until youâre at the end of your rope!â
Zhao Long casually struck out with his palm. Compared with the cultivation last year, his cultivation had greatly improved. He was only a little bit away from the middle stage of the Combination Realm.
Hence, he did not care about Tu Jiaojiao, who had suffered defeat at his hands, who was at the stage of the Voiding Realm. He only used half of his strength.
However, he never expected that after this palm was thrown, the momentum from Tu Jiaojiaoâs body would abruptly rise, and swiftly reach the stage that wasnât the slightest bit inferior to his.
Li Mengyao immediately realized that the situation was bad. She cried out. âShit! This guy was careless.â
At this moment, Zhao Long turned pale with fright. He understood that he had fallen into his opponentâs trap. However, it was already too late.
Tu Jiaojiao, who had used all her strength, wasnât inferior to him in the slightest. Moreover, he hadnât even used his full strength because of his arrogancy.
After taking Zhao Longâs palm with her left hand, she slammed her right hand into Zhao Longâs chest.
The palm strike was so powerful that Zhao Long flew backward at high speed like a cannonball. In the air, he spat out two mouthfuls of blood in succession. Then, he fell to the ground with a plop.
Tu Jiaojiao landed on her feet and proudly said, âZhao Long, how is it? Do you want to continue?â
âYou⊠you⊠you dare cheat?â
Zhao Long covered his chest with his right hand. He couldnât help spitting out another mouthful of blood. Although this palm strike didnât kill him, he was seriously injured and couldnât fight anymore.
âAs the saying goes, allâs fair in love and war. You canât blame me. You can only blame yourself for being stupid,â Tu Jiaojiao said. âIn other words, youâre very arrogant. You think that you can beat me for the rest of my life just because you won once last year.â
