Chapter 2009: Breaking New Ground

This was like eating chilled watermelon in summer. Everybody’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Holy cow, someone really is challenging us!” The little fatty jumped up excitedly. “Go, go, go, go, go! We’re going up on stage!”

It truly wasn’t fun at all just sitting here!

It wasn’t easy for that whatever Celestial Light Academy to happily challenge them. Only fools wouldn’t go up!

Qiao Mu rubbed her eyes, but Mo Lian gently pulled her hands away.

“Then I’m going!” The little fellow swayed as she stood up. She had only taken one step forward when a young referee on the stage clarified awkwardly, “Wrong, wrong! Celestial Light Academy is not challenging Apex Academy. Celestial Light Academy has just said that, they will be challenging… cough, Starlight Academy.”

Bai Xia’s group of three quickly stood up and followed their upperclassmen seniors to the stage.

When they passed by Qiao Mu’s group, they glanced at the latter speechlessly.

The little fatty was even more speechless. He wilted and plopped back into his seat. “Morons!”

It turned out that academy wasn’t challenging them! Made them excited for nothing

“What is our academy’s overall ranking in the competition at the moment?”

“I have no idea how they are tallying these points. How can Qiaoqiao only be seventh place in the individual ranking competition?”

“Isn’t that right! I suspect there are some shenanigans with the way they are counting points.”

Qiao Mu couldn’t care less about how they were tallying those darn points.

She only had one purpose—to go rob the spiritual domain on Blinsheet Island of its spiritual energy for her Qiuqiu.

At that time, whether those three pitiful spiritual domains could continue existing in the long run would depend on her mood…

They sat idly for another two hours.

The head referee, Elder Hong, finally walked up onto the stage personally and announced with a smile, “Thanks to everybody’s tireless efforts in fighting matches round the clock, the top 30 teams that will be advancing to the finals have finally been decided.”

“Elder Hong! We should rest one day before the finals. How about we continue the day after tomorrow!” A student from Moonlight Academy couldn’t help but suggest loudly.

He truly was unable to endure it anymore!

After so many days of competition, today’s rules actually permitted them to chose their opponents freely.

Their Moonlight Academy really was unlucky, getting chosen three times. Everybody had no idea how they made it through the last match!

Those f*cking scoundrels bullied the weak and feared the strong. They just knew to make trouble for their Moonlight Academy. How come he didn’t see them going up against Apex Academy?

Elder Hong smiled amiably. “Rest assured, the mentors have also considered this point.”

“Everybody will temporarily have the day off tomorrow, so that you can compete in the finals full of vigor the day after tomorrow.” Elder Hong explained with a smile, “The finals this time will differ from the competitions in the past to some extent.”

Elder Hong waved his hand, a written document enumerated with the rules for the finals appeared in his hand. He then presented it before everyone with a shake.

“The Six Prefectures’ top 10 academies have reached a consensus to proceed with a finals that will break new ground.”

Everyone: …

So we have to thank you for it!?

“There will be three elements to this round of finals. One, testing cultivation. Two, testing your mystic conscious or spiritual conscious. Three, which is the most important exercise.”

“The competition committee will release various birds above the battle arena. You will need to control them using your mystic conscious.”
