The Great Ruler
Page 616Chapter 615 – Best 4
That heart-stirring scene in the Sea of Judgement was clearly shown on the surface of the mirror as innumerable students had their eyes widened from the sudden changes that followed with an earth-shattering commotion.
“That Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe are so vicious!”
“What vicious method and with that, Mu Chen is actually eliminated, he was a potential Champion…”
“It can’t be considered vicious. After all, Dean Tiansheng had mentioned before that any means can be used. Mu Chen can only blame his own carelessness.”
“But there’s no honour in winning through this method.”
“What a pity…”
Countless clamours rose, some showed disdain, and there was some showing support. In an instant, this vast space became rowdy.
“That Ji Xuan is really shameless!” Naturally, the students of the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy were the most enraged as every single one of them had an ashen expression from anger. Originally, their Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy had the advantage as Mu Chen and Luo Li still remained, but now that Mu Chen was being schemed at, only Luo Li remained; thus, their advantage no longer existed.
“What despicable fellows!” Yu Xi raged as her face was filled with anger.
Ye Qingling and the rest softly sighed. Who could have expected Ji Xuan to be so despicable to attack at such a moment? However, they too, understood that it wasn’t a violation of the rules.
“No worries, even if Big Brother Mu Chen can’t take part in the next battle, Big Sister Luo Li still remains, she definitely won’t let Ji Xuan succeed.” Sun’er comforted everyone.
Ling Xi’s brows were also slightly knitted at this moment, since she could feel the pressure coming from the super vortex as she looked at the Mirror of Judgement. Not even a Third Grade Spirit Disaster might be able to escape from that vortex.
And Mu Chen’s strength was only at the First Grade Spirit Disaster, the possibility of him making it out was too dim.
“That Ji Xuan is a disaster.” Ling Xi’s face was cold as a smear of killing intent flashed across her eyes.
The entire region went into a clamour at this instance. When the Five Great Deans witnessed that scene, Dean Tai Cang’s face was a little dark as he coldly looked at Dean Tiansheng, who had a faint smile hanging on his face.
Dean Tai Cang’s hands were tightly clenched in his sleeves as he suppressed the rage in his heart bit by bit, since he knew that there was nothing he could do, even if he raged. Although Ji Xuan’s method was despicable, it was still within the rules.
“We can only depend on Luo Li, then.”
…
The Sea of Judgement.
Wen Qingxuan was outside the super vortex as she anxiously looked at it. Not far away from her, Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe stood with faint smiles on their faces as their teamwork this time was perfect.
Whoosh!
As they smiled, a piercing break of wind came from the vortex, and a silhouette tore her way out, and in a flash, she appeared outside the super vortex, it was Luo Li.
Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe were a little surprised when they saw Luo Li making it out, but their expressions remained unchanged as they had already achieved their motive of dealing with Mu Chen.
“Luo Li!”
Wen Qingxuan rejoiced when she saw Luo Li making it out.
Rustle!
However, Luo Li’s face was covered in chill at this moment. She did not reply to Wen Qingxuan as she formed sword seals with her hand, and her Luo God Sword flew out. Two extremely sharp Sword Auras tore their way through the boundless Spiritual Energy liquid as they flew towards the two people.
The gazes of Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe changed when they saw Luo Li attacking without any words. They waved their sleeves as boundless Spiritual Energy swept out, colliding together with the Sword Aura.
Boom!
Spiritual Energy ripples wreaked havoc as it split the Spiritual Energy liquid in this region apart.
Luo Li’s face was covered in frost as she grasped her hand, the Luo God Sword appeared in her hand as she unleashed her powerful Spiritual Energy. Clearly, she had intended to go all-out.
“Luo Li, do you think that you can confront the both of us with just you alone?” Ji Xuan spoke in a dark tone as he saw how forceful Luo Li was being.
“Haha, no wonder you are the next Empress of the Luo God Clan, that’s some guts you have there.” Xue Tianhe eerily smiled as he looked at Luo Li with mockery. If the latter intended to fight the both of them with her alone, she probably might not even gain any advantage, even though she possesses the Luo God Sword.
“Luo Li, don’t be rash.”
Luo Li’s gaze was cold as she stared at the two people. She tightly gripped the Luo God Sword as killing intent was unleashed from her body without any restraints.
“Luo Li, all sorts of means is allowed in the Sea of Judgement, he can only be blamed for being careless to end up in that situation.”
When he saw the coldness in Luo Li’s pupils, rage rose a little in his heart as he sneered, “I’m doing it for his own sake. If he doesn’t even have this little mindset, he can only be a small figure, and the path of an expert is not for him.”
“Do you really think that I don't dare to act here?” Luo Li’s clear ice-cold voice had no emotion as the concentrated cold intent in her voice made the surrounding liquid Spiritual Energy fluctuate.
“Ji Xuan, if you guys want to fight here, then we’ll give it a go!” Wen Qingxuan spoke as she made a grasping gesture and a golden war spear appeared.
She was also disgusted by Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe’s earlier method and adding the layer of relationship she had with Luo Li, Wen Qingxuan would definitely not allow the two of them to gang up on Luo Li.
Seeing the posture of the two girls, Ji Xuan slightly narrowed his eyes. He was still rather fearful of the two girls before him, if they were to fight in this Sea of Judgement, not a single one of them could escape if they created even more dreadful Spiritual Energy vortices and he wasn’t willing to halt his steps here.
“Haha, Mu Chen does have some good fortune with girls.” Xue Tianhe laughed indifferently, containing a little mockery. Naturally, deep within his mockery, there was the unavoidable jealousy of a man. After all, the two girls before him were so outstanding to the point that even he was moved, and right now they were protecting Mu Chen, which made him feel uneasy.
“If he is that capable, then let him charge out himself. Otherwise, he won’t even have a chance to fight me.”
Ji Xuan faintly smiled as he glanced at Luo Li, “If you want to help him fight back, then wait till we’re out of the Mirror of Judgement. No matter what you want, I will accompany you till the end.”
When he finished speaking, Ji Xuan no longer spoke any further as he turned around and flew towards the end of the Sea of Judgement at high speed and Xue Tianhe immediately followed behind upon seeing the former’s actions.
Seeing the departure of the two, Wen Qingxuan stored her golden war spear as she helplessly sighed, while looking at Luo Li’s ice-cold face. Who could have expected Mu Chen’s steps to stop here?
“That fellow…” Wen Qingxuan tilted her head as she glanced at the super vortex. The suction force from it made her expression heavy. If she were to fall into it, even she might not even be able to break free.
“He will break free.” Luo Li said softly.
Wen Qingxuan bitterly smiled and didn’t know how to reply to her. If any of them were to fall into the super vortex, the chances of making it out were too low.
“Doesn’t matter if he can make it out, we should get going, or are you going to let Ji Xuan seize the Championship?” Wen Qingxuan spoke as she looked at Luo Li.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes as she looked at the super vortex and nodded her head in the end. Indeed, it wasn’t the time for her to stop right now. If Mu Chen couldn’t make it out, then she would have to obstruct Ji Xuan.
Wen Qingxuan also glanced at the super vortex with a complicated look, before following from behind.
There weren’t any more waves in the Sea of Judgement after that. Although the pressure was getting stronger, the four of them possessed extraordinary strength after all; thus, they were able to endure it.
Another ten minutes passed under the endurance, and a peculiar fluctuation appeared in the chaotic ocean. A lustrous door appeared at the end.
Looking at the light door, the four people felt relieved as they finally made it to the end. Otherwise, their Spiritual Energy might be thoroughly depleted.
Whoosh!
The four streaks of light flew as they charged into the light door without any hesitation.
The Mirror of Judgement quietly floated on top of the Golden Battle Stage.
Tssssssssiii
Under the innumerable gazes, brilliant light burst from the Mirror of Judgement as four silhouettes flew out from the light and hovered in the air.
When the four silhouettes appeared, mountain-trembling and ocean-rolling cheers rang out between the heavens and earth.
Four whole teams entered the Mirror of Judgement, and in the end, only four people made it out! Such a cruel competition trembled their hearts.
“Indeed, Mu Chen isn’t here…”
There were sighs of regret when many people did not see a silhouette amongst the four silhouettes. Who could have expected that a dark horse without any obstructions before him would fall in the end?
“Next… I’m afraid that it will be the Battle of the Best 4.”
Countless gazes shot up into the sky, at the four silhouettes that hovered in the air. When they exited the Mirror of Judgement, their exhausted Spiritual Energy had instantly recovered. The speed was several times faster compared to before they entered. Clearly, coming out of the Mirror of Judgement was beneficial to them.
Luo Li stood on her sword and under the earth-shattering cheers, her gaze was fixed onto the Mirror of Judgement, before she let out a sigh in the end and slowly clenched her fist.
Mu Chen, you must make it out. You have waited three years for this battle, so you must not be absent!
