Chapter 279: I surrender, take the number!

Dulahhan lost.

The defeat was absolute.

The Student Council President’s power was not weak at all. He controlled a triple spell system: shadows, ghosts, and empowerment.

This meant that he was a strong fighter in all three areas, ranked first in overall strength at the Tulip Academy. Judy openly admitted she only had a thirty percent chance of winning, and if she went all out, her chances would increase to forty percent.

Most people were eagerly anticipating the final match, expecting an exciting battle. However, in reality…

Dulahhan started by summoning his mount. He wore the Ghostly Spirit Armor, used Shadow Bindings, received the Blessing of Strength, absorbed the Essence of Magic, practiced the Triple Swordsmanship, and enhanced his riding and sword skills.

He started with full strength and confidently charged forward.

Then, Yun Chuyou swung her sword and triggered the Death Forbidden Holy Domain, instantly causing Dulahhan to die on the spot. The game was over.

She defeated him in one strike. There was really nothing else to say.

All the spectators’ expressions immediately turned into those of shock and disbelief, just like the future technology chairman, who was left stunned in his seat.

The difference in power was astonishingly huge.

Many Holy Domain Mages shook their heads, indicating that they might not even be able to withstand this sword.

It seemed like even the space itself had been sliced open. It wasn’t just a difference in magical skill, but rather, the immortals didn’t have such fancy tactics. Her attacks always led to one outcome: instant kill.

One sword to break through countless spells.

In terms of her realm, she had already stepped half a foot into the realm of unity between humans and immortals. Her swordsmanship was profound, and the sword techniques she used were inspired by the jade disc from the Kunlun Heavenly Palace. It was rumored to have been bestowed upon her by the Queen Mother of the West, not the actual Queen Mother, but the goddess of the Kunlun Region and the Jade Pool in the Heavenly Palace. Key features included flowing hair, a majestic demeanor, wearing a head ornament with a ladder, tiger fangs, and leopard tail, and having a powerful roar.

If you were to look up Yun Chuyou’s background, you would know that she has been overpowered since birth. She has never stopped growing stronger. Although it may seem like an ordinary sword strike, it has secretly accumulated countless buffs. This sword strike carries decades of experience.

If you couldn’t block it, that was normal. If you could block it, then you were also incredibly powerful.

The Blue Iris University and the Tulip Academy have had three wins, three losses, and one tie. The friendly match was supposed to come to a complete end here. Everyone was supposed to end it in a friendly manner and go celebrate with a banquet. We would all raise our glasses at the dinner table and then go to the KTV to sing the unforgettable song "Tonight". Tomorrow, we would happily and peacefully come back. Wouldn’t that be beautiful?

But someone wants to "change the table when it’s your turn to pick dishes, and change the song when you start singing".

The relationship between the Blue Iris University and the Tulip Academy is not very close, and the connection is not that good. In the final important match, Yun Chuyou’s emotional intelligence was low, and on top of that, she is a person from the Ming Country. Instead of cheers and applause, the overwhelming victory brought resistance and dissatisfaction.

Michelle won against Chi Xuan, and the audience cheered loudly. One reason for the cheers was that she is from an allied country.

Together with the rare tied situation in the friendly match, the audience, the students, and many professors were not satisfied. They discussed how to reduce the negative impact. At least, they didn’t want Yun Chuyou to win so easily. If this incident spread, it would be embarrassing for the Swordflower Alliance.

The vice principal and the Earth Dragon Monk talked for a while. Neither of them had a dominant personality and didn’t forcefully object. After discussing it, they hastily decided to have an additional match.

At this point, the outcome of the match was no longer closely related to the Tulip Academy or the Blue Iris University. It was purely that the magic system couldn’t suffer such a miserable defeat at the hands of the Ming Country’s immortal cultivators.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t find a Holy Domain Mage among the young generation. After careful consideration, the professors of the Tulip Academy set their sights on Michelle, who had minor injuries.

Then, there was an hour-long break for rest and preparation.

…

"Do you really want to go on stage?"

"Yes," Michelle nodded seriously, thinking that she didn’t have a choice.

The Blood Noble woman targeted her and insisted that she explain the secret in detail. As a simple village girl, she had no way to resist and could only go along with it.

First, she needed to find a way to finish this fight, preferably winning and relying on the protection of the Tulip Academy to share the pressure and delay.

She had to continue pretending to be a genius. The Blood Noble woman wasn’t a ruthless killer. As long as she didn’t pose an obvious threat, she wouldn’t act recklessly.

"Yun Chuyou woman is very strong, I don’t think I stand a chance against her." Alena woman helped Michelle woman put on her battle gear. "Her swordsmanship is terrifying, infused with many mysteries. The older the mystery, the stronger it is. Can your Golden Engraving handle it?"

"I’m not sure, I can only give it a try." Michelle woman said. "They only hope that I can withstand a few strikes."

"I don’t understand what the adult is thinking, they insist on embarrassing themselves again."

"Do you have no faith in me?" Michelle complained, "Isn’t our friendship worth a word of encouragement and support from you?"

Alena was taken aback by this statement and laughed, saying, "How did you become so smooth-tongued?"

"I’m getting used to my new persona," Michelle said. "It takes time to get used to… but I have to start by believing in myself."

"It’s a good thing, but let’s focus on dealing with the problems at hand. The Death Forbidden Holy Domain can grant immunity from death once. Even if one is cut into pieces, they can be healed through a short temporal rewind. However, victory or defeat often lies in that moment when the body appears, which is also the most exciting moment, meaning…"

"I know, if one loses in a horrible way, thousands of people will repeatedly watch their moment of death."

"The blossoming of one person signifies the withering of another."

"That statement is quite poetic."

"I’ll explain it in a more practical way." Alena pointed her finger at Michelle’s forehead and earnestly advised, "If you don’t want to end up as fertilizer for the other side’s bloom, you should try harder. Do your best for thirty seconds or one minute. If you can’t win, surrender directly, but don’t die. It would look very unpleasant."

…

"I understand your concerns, the Blood Noble , but… she is a student of our school. Without any evidence, we can’t take her away for interrogation. It’s not appropriate."

"I’m talking about rules." Sasha said coldly, "This situation falls under the Special Safety Law."

"Using this level of law for a student is a bit excessive."

"That is gold." Sasha frowned. "I understand that you may not know the significance of gold, but please don’t question my judgment."

The Blood Noble spoke to Sasha, "We have coexisted with the Golden Tree for such a long time, our understanding of it is not much shallower than yours." The Vice Principal calmly advised, "I hope you can be more tolerant towards the younger generation, even if she has secrets, give her some time to adjust… I’m not saying we won’t do anything, there will be professors specialized in dealing with spirits and souls to cleanse her, ensuring no lingering spirits attach to her consciousness."

Sasha frowned, "You will do the investigation yourselves?"

"If you’re not confident, you can observe."

"…I hope you are prepared to take responsibility for this."

"Naturally, Your Excellency the Blood Noble ." The Vice Principal placed his right hand over his chest, bowed slightly as a gesture of respect. He paused for a moment and asked, "Five hundred years later, do you still believe that gold is evil?"

"This problem is confusing, but power itself doesn’t have good or bad nature. It’s just the differences in social class, perspectives, and the intentions of those who possess it." Sasha spoke softly, "I don’t have any ill intentions towards it. I am just wary of those who possess gold and their potential harm towards this land and country."

"I actually disagree," the vice principal said.

"Oh?"

"The Golden Tree has nurtured the land of Europa for five hundred years. It loves this land and its creatures equally, as the stars and moon revolve, and time passes by."

"It simply operates according to the mysterious laws it possesses, like a computer."

"Well, then who set the rules for this computer?" the vice principal questioned back, "It was the person who initially planted it here, who made that wish. That’s why it brings wealth, abundance, and blessings… something that no other Golden Tree has been able to achieve."

Sasha looked at him sternly, "What are you trying to say?"

"Sasha, who deeply loves this land and its people… is not just a few people. The vice principal gazed at the golden tree and said, "Just like the mentor never destroyed this golden tree, I hope you can give her more time and try to believe that it is good, believe that it can bring about a wonderful outcome."

Sasha replied with a cold laugh, "It’s absurd that you’re trying to persuade me to believe it’s good."

"But in the past five hundred years, it has never done anything wrong to anyone, including you," the vice principal paused. "Even the last emperor may not be worthy of hatred. All of this is in the past."

"But maybe not. The blood moon reappears, the golden revival. Do you think it’s just a coincidence?" Sasha sneered.

"Do you hate gold so much?"

"Yes," Sasha didn’t deny this time. "Even after five hundred years, I still hate it to the core."

This dazzling and splendid gold had taken everything away from me.

…

In the lively and bustling street scene, Bai Wei was sitting face to face with the Dragon King.

"I want to see one more person’s dream," he whispered the name, "Yun Wuxin ."

"For the sake of Xue Ya’s face."

Yun Wuxin’s dream was unexpectedly simple, nothing more than the Mirror of Heart.

After only watching her dream for a short while, Bai Wei didn’t have time to see it clearly when suddenly he heard a loud ringing in his ears.

Wait, this feeling is…

Bai Wei stood up abruptly, "I won’t watch anymore, I have urgent matters to attend to. I’ll leave now!"

With one step forward, his consciousness disappeared from its original place, crossing over the spiritual world ocean, following the sound and rhythm to the source, arriving in Europe of the material world.

After waiting for a successful login, he opened his eyes and found himself in an ocean of sword energy, and in the next moment, sword lights poured down like a heavy rain.
