Chapter 36: Eternal Infamy

  The next day, as soon as they entered the venue, a cheer erupted from the crowd.

  "Lightly mad... lightly mad... look here, look here..."

  "You're so cool, I really admire you!"

  "Wild... wild..."

  Zhan Qingcang stood in the crowd, this kind of showiness wasn't her intention! Fortunately, she was standing in the center of the team, otherwise at this moment, wouldn't she have been torn to pieces?

  It was a struggle to squeeze into their seats, only to find that the surrounding area was packed with people. There weren't this many people yesterday!

  The sound of "boom boom boom" drums shook the air, signaling the start of the competition.

  "Today, the second round of the college ranking match, the team match, is being held. I hope everyone can have a good performance."

  The person in charge announced it above, and below was another round of cheers. Many familiar names were shouted loudly, and many lovely ladies expressed their admiration for the heroes in their hearts. Of course, there were also many elegant gentlemen who threw charming glances at the girls they admired. Those men's gazes made her want to bring a lightning rod with her. The originally calm and quiet academy ranking competition had somehow turned into a matchmaking gathering?

  "First up is Senro Academy versus Bokuto Academy."

  Actually, from the person in charge announcing the order of the two teams, you can see which college is stronger. After all, putting the strong team first shows respect for them. Huangtu College can only be considered a third-rate college, so when it comes to Senluo, it can only be said that their luck is not good. As expected, Senluo's ten people went on stage one by one, each with an air of superiority, clearly looking down on Huangtu College.

  The two sides faced off, and soon they clashed. As soon as the fight began, Sen Luo used his aura to suppress the opponent, putting Huan Tu at a disadvantage. This was because they had only sent out seven people to fight, while three others stood by with their arms crossed, showing contempt. The young hot-bloods couldn't accept this, so they pulled those three observers into the fray with all their might. Their bravery was commendable, but reality is cruel. Soon, a Water-type Three-star Spirit King from Huan Tu Academy was kicked out of the arena. Then, one by one, they continued to fall, until only Guang Zhang Commander was left on stage. Despite his best efforts, he was still no match for Sen Luo, and defeat was inevitable.

  Next, Yunshu College vs. Ziyuan College.

  Hao Ren, Zhan Light Crazy and the others took to the stage one after another. The opposing side was also waiting in full array. Apart from the five people that Zhan Light Crazy knew, there were five other people she had never seen before, so she didn't know what their abilities were like either. Therefore, she fought with a lot of reserve. If she wasn't needed, then all the better.

  Shang Qi launched the first attack, and with a burst of wood-element spiritual energy, he bound the two opponents together. Then, Hao Ren created a whirlwind ball that knocked the tied-up duo off the stage. On the other side, Mu used his earth escape technique to protect himself and Yu Mei Ren, who took advantage of the opportunity to sweep her opponent away with countless ice shards, forcing them back. The other five people were also working together in coordination, but perhaps because their opponents were evenly matched, the battle was momentarily stalled. On the entire stage, probably only Zhan Light Crazy was relaxed - didn't everyone see yesterday's match? Who would be foolish enough to provoke her? After Hao Ren and his team finished dealing with their own opponents, they rushed over to help the other five people. With their assistance, the outcome of this match became clear.

  In the next match, Yunshu College and Senluo College never met, seeing the students of Senluo College participating in the competition with a hint of guilt, their eyes dodging, Warlight's mouth slightly curled up, feeling lucky? Wait for me to bring you the greatest misfortune!

  At half-time, Zhang Lie suddenly stood up and walked to the center of the high platform below, leaving everyone puzzled as to what was happening.

  "Wan Chengzhu, Qing Kuang has something to report, but I'm not sure if it's suitable to be told." Standing below, the smiling and carefree Cloud Light Wind was a stark contrast to Vice Principal Chu on the platform, who was fidgeting with unease. Today, he hadn't seen those few people, and had already anticipated that things would take a turn for the worse. Now, seeing this young girl, his heart felt even more uneasy.

  "Oh? What's up, but feel free to say. The master of the Wan family looked at the little guy in front of him, what a talented person! Not to mention his strong strength, he is also not arrogant or rash."

  "Is the college ranking match open, fair and just?" War lightly gazed intensely at Wan Jia Cheng Zhu.

  "Yes!" The master of Wanjiacheng savored these few words, interesting!

  "What if someone is inferior in strength, uses underhanded schemes to harm others, and achieves an unmentionable goal? How should we deal with that?" The loud inquiry echoed throughout the hall, leaving everyone perplexed as to what it meant.

  "If such a thing really exists, it must be severely punished." Wan Jia's face turned serious, he had always hated those who were inferior in strength but tried to secretly calculate others, what kind of skill was that.

  "That's enough with just these words from the castle master, can you understand that, Dean of Senro?"

  "What are you insinuating, trying to frame me, Sen Luo? What evidence do you have that we conspired to harm someone?" Vice President Chu jumped up suddenly, pointing at her with one hand.

  "Huh? Vice President Chu, what's wrong with you? I was talking about the Dean of Senluo, not you! Are you feeling guilty and confessing on your own?"

  Vice President Chu took the lead, but he didn't know how ridiculous he looked with his "three hundred taels of silver" expression.

  "You're...". Thinking of so many people, it would ruin his image. Vice President Chu changed his words: "Slander is not right, considering your young age, the president won't bother with you."

  Hearing your pretentious words, Zhan Qing's expression was somewhat amusing. You don't mind me, that's good! I'll mind you, anyway the result is the same.

  "Master Wan, if this evidence is brought out, it won't look good."

  "It doesn't matter, whatever it is, I'll take responsibility for it. If there's really something improper going on, wouldn't that be a dereliction of duty on the part of this city's lord?"

  "In that case, I have no opinion either."

  He took out the memory crystal, infused it with spiritual energy, and last night's scene was projected in front of everyone. Several big men surrounded a little girl, couldn't beat her, and even took out a treasure. When they heard the sentence "Fortunately, the principal had foresight", the whole audience was in an uproar, and the eyes looking at Sen Luo changed instantly. Chu, the deputy principal, was furious, his face red with rage, a useless waste who can't even accomplish anything but can ruin everything. Sen Luo's other students were red-faced and bowed their heads, ashamed and wanting to hide themselves. The master of the Wan family was so angry that he smashed the table in front of him.

  It seems that the spiritual power infused into the memory crystal was "insufficient" at first, and the scene only stopped at the point where Zhan Qingcang was bound by the spirit rope. However, the focus of everyone's attention is no longer on that now, and the entire room is quiet without a single sound.

  The master of Wanjiacheng broke the silence, "Can the Senluo Academy explain what's going on here?"

  "Lord of the castle, this is slander, it must be slander!" Vice President Chu shouted.

  "Slander? Do you think I, the city master, am blind, or do you think everyone present is blind?" The city master glared at him angrily.

  "Master Wan, in order not to trouble you, I have brought the evidence. You can confront them face-to-face." After finishing speaking, with a spin, both feet tapped on the ground, and he jumped into the air, kicking away the drum that had been covering several people who were tied up together. At this moment, several people were dazed and pale-faced.

  "Vice President Chu, everyone is here, you won't tell me that this isn't your Senluo student, will you?!"

  "This... this..."

  "Director Li, is there no one else in Senluo? Why does Vice Director Chu make all the decisions, don't you think I, Wan Jia, am worthy of consideration?"

  "Ah, this, this... how can it be? What's going on, I'm not even clear!" The usually transparent Senroin chief priest finally couldn't pretend anymore and stuttered, unable to speak.

  Zhou Yan, who had fallen to the ground, was just about to ask for help from Vice President Chu when he was suddenly accused: "Lord City Master, it must be that these people lost yesterday and were not satisfied, so they took revenge and stole my attached spirit rope. Now that they have been caught, they have nothing to do with us, the Forest Luo! Please, Lord City Master, investigate clearly." As soon as this was said, both Zhang Lie and Cui Xiao wanted to applaud for him, what a wonderful way of pointing at a deer and calling it a horse.

  Zhou Yan's eyes widened in anger, was the dean abandoning them? No, no, it couldn't be like this. Clearly, the dean had instructed them, they couldn't become scapegoats. Twisting his body, just as he was about to speak up, he realized that earlier glance was his last look at this world.

  Chu, the deputy dean, withdrew his hand, and the air still lingered with spiritual power fluctuations. "City Lord, these rebellious students still want to quibble, but they have already been punished. This matter really has nothing to do with me, Sen Luo." His gaze was sincere, as if those who had hurt him were all sinners.

  "This matter will be discussed later." The master of the Wan family did not expect him to act so quickly, and in front of so many people, he was caught off guard for a moment. However, the feeling of swallowing a fly's nausea in his heart could not be shaken off. What a sinister and ruthless person who would stop at nothing.

  The competition continued, but it was clear that everyone's minds were elsewhere. The students of Senluo performed even more disappointingly, perhaps because they were ashamed of their own college's actions or intimidated by the deputy dean's ruthless tactics. They didn't win a single match, while Yunshu swept through each round with ease, taking first place every time.

  This incident, everyone has a measuring rod in their heart. Sen Luo's usual attitude towards things, Vice President Chu's fierce words just now, and that cruel method - as long as you're not an idiot, who doesn't know what's really going on? This continent admires the strong, but every strong person is proud in their heart. Even if they lose, as long as they lose with dignity and integrity, they will never stab others in the back. But Sen Luo has exposed himself in such an ugly manner, I suppose he'll have a hard time from now on, and might even be expelled from the Gasantian Country. As for Vice President Chu's and Sen Luo Academy's fate, that's not something Warlight should worry about.
