Chapter 1600: Chapter 1602: Ended? Or Just Begun?

Mu Qing’s mind was a complete blank now.

Sing?

Sing what song?

She didn’t even know who she was anymore.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

The whole person stood dumbly on the stage, yet her eyes were still fixed on Lu Xiaobu’s phone screen.

However, she wasn’t like those who said they were ’gathering information,’ she really didn’t know what to do anymore.

So much so that she forgot to control her eyes.

Drip, drip.

About fifteen seconds later.

"Poof!"

Mu Qing spat out a mouthful of blood, closed her eyes, and fell to the ground.

She was clearly experiencing inner demons!

"Uh! Is this thing’s destructive power that great?" Lu Xiaobu’s mouth twitched as he looked at Mu Qing on the ground.

If this were modern people, many watch ten or more episodes in a day without much feeling.

Sigh, these cultivators have really poor psychological endurance.

Lu Xiaobu wasn’t so uncultured to not care, he turned off the phone, walked forward, intending to carry Mu Qing off the stage.

The instant he turned off his phone, he seemed to hear countless cries of lament.

Lu Xiaobu glanced towards the audience, immediately seeing heads avoiding his gaze.

They wouldn’t admit it.

Lu Xiaobu picked up Mu Qing and took her off the stage.

This match was over.

"Do you still want to continue?" Lu Xiaobu looked at Hengqin Academy’s team leader and asked.

"Continue? Continue what?" The team leader was a bit dazed.

His mind kept showing the scenes he just saw.

Ahem, well, we’re all men!

It’s understandable!

Just like the first time you saw it, that excitement, that tension, that unforgettable feeling, unlike now, constantly fast-forwarding!

Ahem! Ahem!

"The competition." Lu Xiaobu shrugged and said helplessly.

He thought maybe the next time he saw two peerless masters dueling, he’d pull out his phone and flash it, killing them both instantly.

The power is quite terrifying!

"Ah! Yes! The competition! The competition..."

The team leader remembered, but at the same time his face darkened.

He realized it was the competition now, and it concerned Hengqin Academy’s fate, he had actually forgotten!

Now Zhou Shuai, Wan Jian, and Mu Qing were all defeated.

Three losses out of five rounds!

Of course, this kind of round-robin competition doesn’t end with three wins, if they managed to defeat Lu Xiaobu and the remaining Foundation Establishment stage person, they could still win!

But the key issue is...

Are Wen Ya and Ding Leng Lu Xiaobu’s match?

Definitely not!

Just looking at it, Lu Xiaobu fought three rounds already, still calm and composed, he knew the remaining two certainly couldn’t win.

What now?!

Does Hengqin Academy really have to merge into Nanshan Academy?!

Absolutely ridiculous!

Not to mention whether they will uphold the promise, even if they did, could Nanshan Academy handle it?!

The scene fell silent.

At this moment.

The old principal suddenly appeared at the edge of the stage and said, "How about we call it a day, and discuss the specifics in a few days?"

He set the tone for today’s match.

Forcing Hengqin Academy to admit defeat and agree to merge with Nanshan Academy was obviously impossible.

A leader, no matter what, he wouldn’t dare make such a promise on his own.

So, him stepping out to offer a solution was the best option.

By then deciding an outcome, even if they didn’t merge, Hengqin Academy would have to offer compensation.

"Fine!" The team leader agreed without hesitation.

He looked gratefully at the old principal.

This way, he had something to report back!

"Well, how about staying for a meal?" The old principal offered.

As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Xiaobu.

He was worried Lu Xiaobu might cause a stir.

However, alongside his worries were complex emotions.

Admiration, shock, fear, pity!

He admired Lu Xiaobu’s abilities, was shocked Lu Xiaobu actually changed the situation single-handedly, feared Lu Xiaobu’s ambitions, pitied Lu Xiaobu’s fate ahead.

Why was such talent linked to the Demon Realm!

But, the old principal was relieved that Lu Xiaobu didn’t voice any obstruction.

Lu Xiaobu wasn’t foolish, speaking up now would yield nothing, even if the leader agreed, it’d mean nothing.

Furthermore, he’s not yet a principal, even if he wanted to annex them, he’d have to wait until he became principal.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, waiting for the outcome of the situation, as well as the naive yet inevitable development everyone knew would follow.

"No, no! We need to report back to the principal!"

The team leader looked at their initially proud team, now battle-worn, feeling somewhat sorrowful.

Better to leave quickly, staying would further ruin their dignity!

The eight from Hengqin Academy all had complex gazes.

Wan Jian walked over to Lu Xiaobu, "I haven’t decided yet, once the academy’s affairs settle, I’ll give you my answer."

"Okay." Lu Xiaobu nodded in agreement.

"Goodbye then! You’re really strong!" Zhou Shuai posed in what he thought was a cool stance and said, then humbly added, "Hey, can I borrow a look?"

"Next time we meet." Lu Xiaobu laughed, this guy was pretty fun.

"I hope we can spar next time." Ding Leng walked up coolly, "And what’s that stick on your mouth?"

"This box is for you." Lu Xiaobu generously took out a box and tossed it to Ding Leng.

"Thanks." Ding Leng received it, then thought for a moment and pulled out a jade pendant from his pocket, "This is for you."

He didn’t like owing people favors.

"Thanks then." Lu Xiaobu didn’t ask further, he took it and pocketed it.

"You’re really a hooligan!" Wen Ya walked over, speaking seriously word by word, but then she switched, "But, also quite handsome."

"Thank you for the compliment." Lu Xiaobu chuckled, Wen Ya was a bit like a hot pepper, spirited and fiery, not annoying to him.

"Until next time!" Wen Ya turned and left.

After that, the eight from Hengqin Academy headed towards the school exit.

Among the eight, two were servants, originally intending to arrange admissions to Nanshan Academy post-competition, so they brought two servants for aftercare.

However, things turned out this way, and the servants were entirely useless.

The flying boat appeared again, and the eight boarded it and took off into the sky!

Until they left, the people of Nanshan Academy still felt like it was a dream.

They won?!

Just like that, they won?!

Nanshan Academy actually beat Hengqin Academy?!

Lu Xiaobu alone, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, defeated three Golden Core cultivators, and one of them even awakened divine skills?!

Why did they feel dizzy and disoriented?!

However, the old principal’s expression grew increasingly complex!
