Kaiyang City, City Square.
There were already seven teams from various academies gathered here, waiting for the competition to begin.
In the Yaoguang Academy team, Lang Buli and Lang Lina stood together and narrowed their eyes as they carefully sized up the Yuheng Academy team.
A moment later, Lang Lina tilted his head slightly and whispered, “Brother,
Wang Xiao is really not inside.”
Lang Buli nodded. “It seems that Lan Dahai is right. Wang Xiao must have heard our conversation last night and knew that he was one of our targets, so he didn’t dare to come.”
“But if Wang Xiao doesn’t come, what should we do?”
Lang Lina lowered his voice again. “Without Wang Xiao, can these people let us lose without any flaws?”
This time, Lang Buli didn’t reply immediately. He thought seriously for a while before saying, “The people from Kaiyang Academy and Nine Heavens Academy haven’t arrived yet. It’s still hard to say. I heard from Lan Dahai that those two academies also have powerful lords.”
As soon as he finished speaking, another minibus drove over.
Someone with sharp eyes in the crowd immediately shouted, “The people from Kaiyang Academy are here!”
As an old school that had been established in Kaiyang City for decades and had always been ranked first, when they heard that the team from Kaiyang Academy had arrived, cheers immediately erupted from the crowd!
At the same time, in the Yuheng Academy team.
Xu Junrou patted the dejected Zhou Xiruo. “Hey, the team from Kaiyang
Academy is here. Hurry up and see if there’s anyone you know.”
At this moment, the door of the Kaiyang Academy’s minibus opened, and ten young lords in battle armor walked out.
Fang Tianyu walked in front and led the team. As soon as her exquisite and cold face appeared, it caused waves of exclamations in the crowd.
Zhou Xiruo only took a glance before replying softly, “I know them all. They’re basically students ranked in the top ten of Kaiyang Academy.”
“Basically?”
Xu Junrou raised her eyebrows when she heard this, as if she was very interested in this matter. “Which one of them isn’t in the top ten?”
Zhou Xiruo pointed at the two people walking at the back. “Those two were originally ranked eleventh and twelfth. After Tian Qiang was arrested, Wang Xiao… Wang Xiao transferred schools so their rankings were also brought forward.”
At the mention of Wang Xiao, tears appeared in Zhou Xiruo’s eyes again. Xu Junrou seemed to have realized that she had said something wrong and hugged Zhou Xiruo from behind without saying anything else.
At this moment, Fang Tianyu had already walked over with the team from the Kaiyang Academy.
As Kaiyang Academy and Yuheng Academy were ranked first and second respectively, the teams of the two academies were naturally arranged together.
Seeing Zhou Xiruo’s red eyes, Fang Tianyu could not help but be stunned.
“Zhou Xiruo? What’s wrong with you? Did Wang Xiao bully you?”
Before Fang Tianyu could speak, Han Bufan, who was behind him, shouted, “This Wang Xiao is really too much! It’s his fortune that you’re the vassal lord, but he actually dares to… Eh? Where’s Wang Xiao?”
Hearing this, Fang Tianyu looked around and realized that Wang Xiao was actually not here. She was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, “Where’s Wang Xiao? Why isn’t he participating?”
Hearing this, Zhou Xiruo cried even harder. Xu Junrou hurriedly hugged her and explained to Fang Tianyu in a low voice, “Wang Xiao is not here. He…
disappeared last night?”
“Disappeared?!”
Fang Tianyu was stunned when she heard this. Tang Hengshan, Han Bufan, and the others were also surprised.
“What happened?” Lin Dong came over and asked anxiously, “Why did he suddenly disappear?”
“I-I don’t know…”
Zhou Xiruo replied in a low voice with a sobbing tone, “Yesterday, we went to the trading market. He entered an alley and disappeared…”
“He entered an alley… and disappeared?”
Fang Tianyu revealed a puzzled expression. The others had the same expression and did not understand what this meant.
At this moment, the staff in charge of the order of the scene walked over and asked Fang Tianyu and the others to return to their seats.
The few of them had no choice but to stop asking questions for the time being.
After comforting him, they returned to the Kaiyang Academy and stood still. Immediately after, another minibus drove over.
This time, it was the team from the Nine Heavens Academy. However, because the ranking of the Nine Heavens Academy was not high, it did not cause any waves in the crowd. Only some children’s parents from the Nine Heavens Academy called out a few times.
A moment later, the minibus stopped. After the door was opened, 10 young lords in battle armor also got out.
“Hey! Lord Zhou!”
Li Kaifu’s voice came from afar. Zhou Xiruo subconsciously turned around, but before she could find Li Kaifu, she saw the handsome young man walking in front of the team.
“Liu Yuyang!”
Zhou Xiruo’s pupils suddenly constricted. She did not expect this guy to actually obtain the qualifications to participate.
Before he could react, Liu Yuyang also saw Zhou Xiruo. After being slightly stunned, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. Then, he actually left the team and walked over!
“Xiruo, long time no see.”
Liu Yuyang smiled familiarly and raised his eyebrows frivolously. “But you’re
still so beautiful!”
As he spoke, Liu Yuyang reached out to touch Zhou Xiruo’s hair. However, before he could extend his hand, a jade-like hand reached out from the side and forcefully slapped it.
Xu Junrou took a step forward and blocked in front of Zhou Xiruo. She frowned and stared at the frivolous Liu Yuyang. “Where did this lecher come from? How dare he bully someone from our Yuheng Academy?”
As soon as Xu Junrou appeared, Yi Han and Gao Lixuan immediately came over.
Gao Lixuan lifted his fringe and glared at Liu Yuyang. With a dark expression, he said coldly, “Bullying someone from Yuheng? Do you believe that I’ll kill you?”
Liu Yuyang was stunned and had yet to react. The team from the Kaiyang
Academy beside him also heard the commotion. Fang Tianyu immediately walked over and stood beside Zhou Xiruo. Tang Hengshan, Han Bufan, Lin Dong, and Yang Fan followed closely behind and surrounded Liu Yuyang with unfriendly expressions.
This was not the end. The team from the Nine Heavens Academy, who had already walked to the designated location, immediately ran over when they saw Liu Yuyang surrounded by people from the two academies.
The people from Yuheng, Kaiyang, and the others did not know what was going on, but when they saw the Nine Heavens Academy team suddenly rush over, they thought that they could not let their teammates be bullied and immediately surrounded them.
In less than two to three seconds, the people from the three academies were completely mixed together.
“What are you doing?! Are you bullying someone?”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see that he made the girl in our academy cry?” “Who are you calling blind?! So what if your ranking is high?!” “There are so many people bullying one person. Don’t you have any shame?!” “He’s bullying a girl in broad daylight. Don’t you have any shame?”
It was unknown who spoke first. The participants present were all young and energetic. How could they endure this anger? They almost instantly quarreled!
Liu Yuyang, who was surrounded in the middle, was stunned. He scratched his head but could not understand why he had caused such a huge commotion..
