Chapter 982 - The Second Substitute (2/2)

“I refuse to accept this!”

He jumped out all of a sudden, pointed at Qin Haodong, and shouted, “This is your personal revenge. With my ability, why let me be a substitute?”

Turning around, he said to Luo Dongqing, “Director, Qin Haodong is not worthy of being the leader. You see. He arranged everything randomly. He asked me to be the second substitute!? It’s obvious that he wants revenge.”

As the teacher in charge, Luo Dongqing was very clear about the strength of these students from the Tortoise Academy.

Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong’er were only at the final stage of the Voiding Realm before. Even if their cultivation had been improved last night, they couldn’t surpass You Wanren.

He looked at Qin Haodong and said, “Boy, tell me your reason for the arrangement.”

Qin Haodong said calmly, “The reason is very simple. The list is based on strength. You Wanren’s strength is the worst, so he can only be the second substitute.”

You Wanren yelled, “What? My strength is the weakest? On what basis do you say I am the weakest?”

Qin Haodong smiled. “You’re not convinced, are you? Then, I’ll give you a chance to prove your incompetence.

“You can challenge any one of us. As long as you beat one of the important members, you will be the important member. If you beat me, you will be the leader.”

“What do you mean by ‘a chance to prove your incompetence’?”

You Wanren was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He just wanted to challenge Qin Haodong, but soon controlled his emotions.

He had witnessed the other party’s strength in the competition between the North and South Academies. He was indeed no match for Qin Haodong, so it was unwise for him to directly challenge Qin Haodong.

“This boy must have set up a trap for me. He would like to make me challenge him. I won’t fall for it.”

You Wanren said, “You act up to your promise?”

Qin Haodong said, “Of course, you only need to win one of us.”

“Well! I’ll challenge right now and then make you lose face.”

You Wanren glanced around. Originally, Fang Qiong’er was the weakest. However, he felt that if he challenged the weakest one, it was not enough to prove his ability.

Tu Jiaojiao was stronger than him. The Little Witch had an uncertain summoning ability. Therefore, he stepped aside, pointed at Murong Jinghong, and said, “I want to challenge Jinghong Fairy.”

“Sure!”

Qin Haodong agreed without hesitation. Others retreated to both sides, leaving a place for fighting.

Murong Jinghong’s body emanated a powerful chill when she heard that this guy had issued her a challenge.

You Wanren did not know that Murong Jinghong’s cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Combination Realm. In his opinion, it was not easy to improve from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the early stage of the Combination Realm in a short time, and it would take at least a few years for her to improve again.

Thus, he was confident that his strength was higher than Jinghong Fairy’s. He proudly said, “Jinghong Fairy, I am your senior brother. I will not fight back your first three moves.”

“Well, let’s start!”

Murong Jinghong stretched out her white-jade-like palm and slapped on You Wanren’s chest.

This palm looked light and didn’t have much power, but it cleverly blocked all the retreats of the opponent.

Seeing that he couldn’t dodge, You Wanren’s face darkened. He raised his hand and punched. At this point, he could only fight head-on.

With a loud bang, the punch and the palm collided.

Like a fly that had been swatted away, You Wanren flew straight for dozens of meters and looked extremely embarrassed.

Murong Jinghong stood there and didn’t move an inch. Her expression was placid with a sneer on her lips.

Only one move! It was obvious who was better between the two. Also, she didn’t use all her power considering that they were from the same academy.

Otherwise, You Wanren would not only be sent flying, but he would also spit out a mouthful of blood.

Murong Jinghong giggled, “How about it? You’re still not gonna fight back?”

“How…how is this possible? When did you reach the middle stage of the Combination Realm?”

You Wanren’s face was full of disbelief. He could not believe that there was such a big gap between him and Murong Jinghong.

Murong Jinghong sneered, “What does that have to do with you? Are you going to admit defeat or not?”

“I…”

You Wanren had always been proud and arrogant. However, he was suppressed and forced to admit defeat today, which was a great insult to him.

The other party’s strength was obvious. Her cultivation was the middle stage of the Combination Realm. He was no match for her at all.

“Hmph… Isn’t it just the middle stage of the Combination Realm? What’s so great about it? I’ll be able to reach this stage sooner or later.”

You Wanren thought to himself. He did not believe that everyone had reached the middle stage of the Combination Realm. At this time, he could no longer care about his face. He turned to look at Fang Qiong’er and said, “I want to challenge her.”

As long as he defeated Fang Qiong’er, he still could become an important member.

“Okay!” Qin Haodong said to Fang Qiong’er, “Be careful, Junior Sister. Don’t hurt him.”

“I understand, Senior Brother.”

Fang Qiong’er stepped to the center of the field and said to You Wanren, “Come on. I’ll let you make the first move.”

After the failure just now, You Wanren became much more careful. He was no longer arrogant and took the initiative to punch the face of Fang Qiong’er.

He was quite confident about this round. Even if Fang Qiong’er had improved, her cultivation would at most be promoted from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the early stage of the Combination Realm. She was no match for him.

However, right at that moment, the huge momentum swept over. Immediately, there was a pain in his chest. He flew backward like a fly again.

This time, he flew even farther than last time. Only after breaking several large trees in succession did he stop.
