But after the shock, Lu Chenxing asked again, “But how are you so sure we’ll agree, and that we’ll definitely win? Right now, I can only confirm that I can go, I haven’t even asked the other two yet!”
“And aren’t there only two foreign aid slots? Three of these four people are foreign aid, isn’t that one too many?”
Regarding Lu Chenxing’s question, Bai Yuntian smiled, “If you don’t want to stay in school, then I can just specially recruit Guo Jiahao, couldn’t I?”
“As for why they would go…” Bai Yuntian glanced at Lu Chenxing and smiled, “You don’t seem to understand yet. If you say you’re going, they will definitely go.”
Hearing this, Lu Chenxing stroked his chin, thought of those three people, and after a moment, came to a conclusion… It seemed to be true.
“And there’s one more thing.” The smile on Bai Yuntian’s lips slowly faded, “People from various faith denominations will also send people, so, the Holy Light Church will also send people.”
After hearing this news, Lu Chenxing was silent for a while, then looked into Bai Yuntian’s eyes and asked seriously, “If, and I mean if, someone from the Holy Light Church dies in the grand competition, what will happen?”
Hearing this, Bai Yuntian laughed, “Nothing will happen. If they die, they die. I’ll take responsibility for anything.”
So Lu Chenxing also laughed, and both of them laughed very happily.
………
“That’s how things are, what do you all think?”
In the Paper House, before dinner, Lu Chenxing asked the three while waiting for the dishes to be served.
Upon hearing this, Guan Yang was the first to speak, “I want to go! This time I can finally fight alongside Master, I won’t miss this opportunity! I want to make Master proud of me!”
As he spoke, the fighting spirit in his eyes emanated without concealment, clearly ready for a big fight.
And seeing that he wanted to go, Guo Jiahao also quickly raised his hand and said, “I want to go too! I’ll go through the enrollment procedures tomorrow! I want to prove that I’m really not a rookie!”
After the two expressed their intentions, they looked at Yun Qiaoqiao in unison. She was tightly pursing her lips at this moment, and her killing intent couldn’t help but emanate from her body.
Seemingly knowing what she was going to ask, Lu Chenxing said, “Principal Bai said that people from the Holy Light Church can be killed, and he will take responsibility for anything! You don’t have to worry about killing the wrong person, because those brainwashed innocent civilians are just the lowest-level ordinary believers, not combatants.”
“None of those who come to participate in the battle are innocent, so just make your move!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Qiaoqiao immediately said, “I’m going!”
Her tone was urgent, as if she was afraid Lu Chenxing would go back on his word.
The flames of hatred and anger surged in her heart. The emotions accumulated over these years almost turned into a beast that would devour people. Lu Chenxing’s words were like opening a floodgate for the beast. Before the beast was unleashed, the thirsty killing intent had already surged out like a tide.
“Then it’s settled. Starting tomorrow, the three of you will report to Principal Bai on time, cultivate well, and come back in the evening for intensified sparring!” Lu Chenxing finally said.
“Yes!”
After the serious matters were discussed, everyone collected their thoughts and began to eat well. Yun Qiaoqiao, with her killing intent restrained, also began to eat well.
However, it seemed she had something on her mind today, as her appetite was not very good. After only eating a dozen bowls of rice, she put down her chopsticks, looked up at Guan Yang, and said, “Senior Brother, spar with me.”
“My pleasure!” Guan Yang put down the book in his hand, smiled at his Junior Sister, then got up and walked towards the second basement level.
Lu Chenxing and the remaining few exchanged glances, all seeing the worry in each other’s eyes, so they all got up and walked towards the second basement level.
Especially Wang Hu, his worry was evident in his eyes. He knew about Yun Qiaoqiao’s situation, and at this moment, he could also feel her urgency and restlessness. He didn’t know if this was good or bad, but he could only let it be.
He also hoped that Yun Qiaoqiao could avenge herself and break free from her inner demons, but he didn’t want her to do anything impulsive that would cause her to get hurt.
But thankfully, with the President accompanying them, there shouldn’t be any problems.
Wang Hu looked up at Lu Chenxing in front of him. His solid back gave a strong sense of security.
In the sparring arena, Guan Yang and Yun Qiaoqiao stood facing each other. As the countdown ended, both moved simultaneously.
Yun Qiaoqiao immediately used Mana Burst to equip and strengthen herself. Before she could make her next move, Guan Yang had already closed in using his Dragging Blade technique!
Unlike his previous sparring session with Guo Jiahao where he held back, this time Guan Yang was full of fighting spirit and killing intent. His Dragging Blade technique was incredibly fast, and in just a moment, he had already closed the distance!
The moment he closed in, Guan Yang’s body surged with green airflow, and he roared, “One Man Army!”
His already extremely fast speed surged again, charging forward fiercely, and at the same time, his Guan Dao, which had accumulated enough power, swept out horizontally!
The green blade light cut a crescent arc, and the attack covered a large area in front of him, leaving Yun Qiaoqiao nowhere to dodge.
Her mind, which had been extremely restless, instantly entered a state of extreme seriousness the moment the battle began. The pride of the Knight King did not allow her to lose!
She immediately drew the invisible Knight’s Sword from her waist, held it vertically beside her, and used her shoulder to brace the blade for a block!
If she didn’t use her whole body to block this powerful and heavy strike, she would absolutely not be able to stop it!
“Clang—!”
A dull clang of metal on metal was heard. Yun Qiaoqiao hastily blocked the strike, but she was also sent flying backward.
The moment her back touched the ground, she immediately changed her posture, turning into a kneeling slide backward. At the same time, a warlike smile spread across her lips, “Senior Brother, you really don’t hold back at all!”
Guan Yang held his Guan Dao in one hand and laughed, “What, Junior Sister, do you want me to show mercy?”
“Of course not!” Yun Qiaoqiao stood up, held her sword with both hands, and charged forward fiercely, “This is perfect!”
Seeing this, Guan Yang also laughed loudly and rushed up to engage her in close combat! “Knight Swordplay” and “Eighteen Spring and Autumn Blades” collided repeatedly, and occasionally, the two would unleash explosive skills to clash.
After a series of collisions, Guan Yang suddenly roared, “Peerless Strike!”
The Guan Dao in his hand suddenly swung horizontally in a circle, using the recoil from their previous clash to unleash a sudden burst! The green blade light swept horizontally again, still covering an immense area, making it impossible to dodge!
But this time, Yun Qiaoqiao was prepared. At this moment, she also shouted, “Breath of the Red Dragon!”
Because Altria’s bloodline contained the power of the British Red Dragon, the Red Dragon’s Heart, into which it transformed, not only brought her immense magical power and recovery, but also gave her some draconic attributes.
A fiery flame appeared on Yun Qiaoqiao’s Knight’s Sword. Combined with the Wind King Barrier, it transformed into a continuously flowing fiery hurricane that slashed out fiercely, colliding with Guan Yang’s Guan Dao, which carried a green blade light!
“Boom—!”
The violent collision stirred up layers of airwaves, and the explosion from the energy clash produced a huge sound. After the energy fluctuations subsided, the two stood on opposite sides, seemingly with no intention of fighting anymore.
