Chapter 986 Golden-Scaled Fire Python
After the Gate of Life was opened, no roars could be heard. However, the air around the arena seemed to be ignited and instantly became extremely hot.
Right after that, a golden python that was over 300m long slithered out from the gate.
“Gosh! I’ve seen this thing before! It’s the Golden-Scaled Fire Python, one of the most powerful seventh-level demonic beast…”
“Golden-Scaled Fire Python is no weaker than Thunder Leopard…”
“This little girl is so powerful. The Tiger Academy will lose…”
Amidst numerous discussions, Lei Wanjun’s face also became extremely serious. As the Strong at the middle stage of the Combination Realm, it was impossible for him not to recognize the Golden-Scaled Fire Python.
It was a peak existence amongst the seventh-level demonic beasts, so he could not fight against it right now.
What made him more depressed was that there wasn’t just one Golden-Scaled Fire Python, but two. They surrounded and stared at him malevolently.
At this moment, Lei Wanjun’s heart sank to the depths of his feet. If there was only one Golden-Scaled Fire Python, he might try his best to fight. However, with two here, he had no chance of winning.
When he was hesitating whether to throw in the towel, the two Golden-Scaled Fire Pythons opened their mouths and the fire from their mouths engulfed the entire arena in the blink of an eye.
As seventh-level demonic beasts, although their fire hadn’t reached the level of Innate Fire, the difference wasn’t that great.
Lei Wanjun had activated his body-protecting Genuine Qi to the extreme, but he still felt hot and even his hair was on fire.
“I admit defeat! I admit defeat!”
At this moment, he couldn’t care about anything else. He could only lower his head and admit defeat.
The Little Witch shook her head and said, “So boring. Admitting defeat so soon. I haven’t enjoyed myself to the fullest yet!”
With that, she waved her hand. The two Golden-Scaled Fire Pythons stopped and returned to the Gate of Life.
At this time, Lei Wanjun was in an utterly miserable state. His hair, which had been so immaculate just now, was now completely charred.
Originally, everyone from the Tiger Academy wore white robes, but now, his had turned black. Together with his blackened face, he resembled a roasted sparrow.
He no longer had the face to stand in the arena, so he jumped down and returned to the Tiger Academy’s side.
The referee announced to the audience. “The Tortoise Academy has won this competition!”
The people present were shocked by the result. When the Tortoise Academy won against the Rosefinch Academy, they thought that the Tortoise Academy won by luck. Right now, the Tortoise Academy also defeated the Tiger Academy so easily, which made them change their minds. It could only be said that the Tortoise Academy’s strength was extremely strong.
In the past, the Tortoise Academy had always been weak and could easily be defeated by any of the other three academies. They never thought that the Tortoise Academy would become so strong this year.
Luo Dongqing was so happy that he babbled away non-stop. He proudly said to Song Tian, “Did you see that, Geezer Song? This is absolute strength.”
No matter how unexpected the result was, the competition still had to go on. Next, the fourth competition, the Rosefinch Academy versus the Dragon Academy.
The two teams were similar in strength. They had fought five extremely fierce rounds in total.
In the end, relying on the home-court advantage, the Rosefinch Academy won the competition with a score of 3:2, which enabled them to regain some of their lost dignity.
However, as the champion last year, the Dragon Academy had completely lost its reputation now. Until now, the results of their competition were very bad.
According to the rules, there would be no rest. The fifth competition, the Tortoise Academy versus the Dragon Academy, would start immediately.
In the previous 4 competitions, except for the Tortoise Academy, some of the team members from the other academies had suffered injuries.
However, each academy had two substitutes, which demonstrated the importance of substitutes at this moment.
So far, everyone’s attention was once again focused on the Tortoise Academy.
They wanted to see if the Tortoise Academy would be able to turn the tables and really win the championship.
As soon as the competition began, Qin Haodong took the lead to go up to the arena and looked at the people of the Dragon Academy with a smile.
Li Mengyao had an ugly expression on her face. There was another reason why she had proposed to change the orders of the competition.
If the Tortoise Academy had suffered heavy losses in the previous two competitions, she could have violated her previous promise and led the Dragon Academy to defeat the Tortoise Academy.
But now, the situation was completely the opposite of what she had expected. After the two competitions, the Tortoise Academy had won easily. It could even be said that they had not been injured at all.
At this point, even if she violated her previous promise, it was useless. With their current defeated members, they simply did not have the strength to fight against the Tortoise Academy. If they continued to fight, they would only be humiliating themselves.
Helpless, she stood up and shouted at the referee standing in the arena, “Our Dragon Academy admits defeat in this competition!”
After that, all the spectators present were shocked. It was the first time in the exchange conference between the four kingdoms that an academy admitted defeat before the competition even began.
Generally speaking, even if the people of this academy were weak, they had to maintain their integrity, such as the Tortoise Academy.
Although they knew that they were no match for their opponents in strength, they still fought to the last moment. This was the integrity of an academy.
Liu Hong, the first prince, said, “Your Highness, you’re directly admitting defeat without even competing. Is that appropriate?”
Liu Xiaofu, who looked indifferent, became angry. At this moment, she realized something.
The Dragon Academy seemed to have known long ago that there was something unusual about the Tortoise Academy this year. That was why Li Mengyao deliberately suggested changing the order of the competition, which caused her academy to lose the first competition.
That was to say, the Rosefinch Academy had been completely set up by the Dragon Academy!
Li Mengyao was expressionless and said, “Your Highness, we have too many injured teammates. We don’t have the ability to fight anymore. We can only admit defeat.”
Throwing in the towel on the spot was allowed by the rules, so Liu Hong couldn’t say anything more. He could only acquiesce to her request.
Although the exchange competition was not over, the Tortoise Academy had already won the championship with three consecutive victories.
“Hooray, we won!”
“Our Tortoise Academy won the championship!”
On the Tortoise Academy’s side, led by the geezer, Luo Dongqing, there were waves of cheers. Only Qin Haodong was relatively calm. The result was exactly what he expected.
The sixth competition was the Tiger Academy versus the Rosefinch Academy. The championship had already been won by the Tortoise Academy, so the spectators were in no mood to continue watching.
In the end, the Tiger Academy won with a score of 3:2.
The final result was that the Tortoise Academy came in first, the Tiger Academy second, the Rosefinch Academy third, and the champion last year, the Dragon Academy was last this year.
Li Mengyao’s face was extremely gloomy. She originally thought that the championship of the exchange conference would belong to the Dragon Academy again, but she did not expect that the Dragon Academy would be crushed by the Tortoise Academy to such an extent. Even the teacher in charge of the team was missing.
She cast a malicious look at Qin Haodong, whose face was full of smiles.
Niu Cuihua whispered in Qin Haodong’s ear, “Hubby, be careful of that woman. I think she will definitely retaliate against you.”
Qin Haodong smiled. “It doesn’t matter. Let her do whatever she wants.”
Li Tianba had already been killed by him. He did not believe that the Dragon Academy could make any more trouble. Moreover, after the competition, he would return to the Tortoise Academy in a few days.
The competition was over. After Liu Zhaoji spoke, he began to give out the awards to the winners. As promised, the prize was a low-level Immortal Crystal.
All the members of the Tortoise Academy stood on the podium together. As the leader, Qin Haodong stood at the front.
“Young man, you did a good job. Congratulations on winning first place.”
Liu Zhaoji had a smile on his face, but his heart ached badly. He had thought that the Rosefinch Academy would most likely win this year. Unexpectedly, this Immortal Crystal was taken away by the Tortoise Academy.
He handed the Immortal Crystal to Qin Haodong and said casually, “Young man, this is a good thing. It can help people improve their cultivation quickly. I really don’t know how you will distribute this sole Immortal Crystal!”
As the King, this guy was extremely cunning. He was trying to sow discord.
In Liu Zhaoji’s view, the Tortoise Academy winning the championship was a fluke. There would be internal strife among the teammates of the Tortoise Academy because of such an expensive prize.
To his surprise, Tu Jiaojiao was the first to speak. “The prize belongs to our leader. It has nothing to do with us.”
As soon as she spoke, the others joined in. “Yes, this Immortal Crystal belongs to our leader. It has nothing to do with us.”
In these people’s eyes, the help Qin Haodong gave them was far more than that of the Immortal Crystal.
Without Qin Haodong’s help, their cultivation would not have improved so quickly, let alone winning the championship of the exchange conference this year.
Only You Wanren’s eyes flashed with unwillingness. Unfortunately, he was only a substitute who did not even compete and he was the weakest, so he had no right to speak.
Seeing that everyone respected Qin Haodong so much that even one Immortal Crystal could not arouse their desire, Liu Zhaoji’s eyes flashed with surprise. He did not know what was so great about this young man. How could he have such great prestige?
The second and third places also had prizes, but the prizes were not as valuable as the low-level Immortal Crystal.
Li Mengyao stood at the end of the line. Originally, the Tortoise Academy was supposed to be humiliated when the top three academies would get prizes. However, the Dragon Academy had to suffer the humiliation instead.
Fortunately, the competition was over. Liu Zhaoji said, “Next, please follow our people to the Rosefinch Spiritual Spring. You will stay outside the spring tonight and enter to absorb the Spiritual Qi tomorrow morning.”
At this point, he glanced at Niu Cuihua and He Ziwei, who were next to Qin Haodong, and said, “Young man, are these two your confidantes?”
Qin Haodong nodded and said, “Yes, but they are not students of the Tortoise Academy.”
Liu Zhaoji smiled and said, “Anyway, you are also the champion this year. I will give you some preferential treatment. You can bring these two friends with you.”
Originally, He Ziwei and Niu Cuihua were full of regret that they could not enter the Rosefinch Spiritual Spring. Therefore, they immediately cheered up after hearing Liu Zhaoji’s words.
With her high cultivation, Niu Cuihua was not very interested in the Rosefinch Spiritual Spring. What she cared about was to be with her husband.
Qin Haodong felt that something was wrong. However, he couldn’t tell what the problem was.
He said politely, “Thank you, Your Majesty!”
Then, under the leadership of the first prince Liu Hong, the members of the Tortoise Academy, the Tiger Academy, and the Rosefinch Academy flew to the west side of the Rosefinch City. That was the direction of Rosefinch Spiritual Spring.
The Rosefinch Spiritual Spring was not far from the Rosefinch City. Roughly two hours later, these people arrived at the periphery of the spring.
At this time, the kingdom had long since made preparations and set up tents here. Everyone slept here and was ready to enter the spring tomorrow morning.
Although it was only the periphery of the Rosefinch Spiritual Spring, the Spiritual Qi here was much richer than that in other places. The trees, flowers, and plants were particularly lush.
After dinner, Niu Cuihua took Qin Haodong’s hand and said, “Hubby, this is a beautiful place. Shall we go out for a walk?”
“Okay!”
Qin Haodong agreed, and the two of them walked out hand in hand.
