The principal had barely recovered from his shock, stood up, and glanced at the audience before speaking, "After the diagnoses from all the professors, the twenty patients on stage have all fully recovered." There was an uncontrollable tremor in his voice. He simply couldn’t help it; he was too excited! Such an outcome was indeed too stunning!
"Ah!" A cry of astonishment erupted from the crowd. Though everyone there had pondered the possibility, they were still shocked when faced with the actual result. Unbelievable! Truly unbelievable!
At this moment, they really wanted to rush onto the stage to see if those two were really human. If they were, how could they do such heinous things?
The principal raised his hand to signal for quiet, then announced, "In this competition, Luo Shu has once again won in terms of speed. Let’s congratulate the victor with our applause."
"Clap clap clap!" The applause surged like waves, almost as if it could overturn the entire gymnasium.
As the applause died down, the principal continued, "Today’s competition ends here. Through three rounds of contest, Luo Shu achieved victory with one draw and two consecutive wins. Let’s all congratulate her once again!"
"Luo Shu, you are amazing! I love you!"
"Luo Shu, I’ve decided, from now on you are my idol."
"Luo Shu, I knew you would win! I am proud of you!"
Applause and cheers once again filled the entire gymnasium; everyone’s faces were filled with excitement, thrill, and astonishment.
All eyes were focused on the girl on stage who remained unflustered and was beaming with a radiant smile.
Ouyang Yi stepped forward, extending his hand, "Congratulations! But this is just the beginning." Even if he couldn’t kill her, his master would send others to continue the task.
"We’ll see whose deer falls when the hunt is over!" Luo Shu replied with a smile, shaking his hand.
In the moment they shook hands, Ouyang Yi suddenly unleashed a powerful Divine Sense, attacking Luo Shu.
Luo Shu smiled slightly and withdrew her hand.
Yet, at this point, Ouyang Yi looked extremely pale, as if he could collapse at any moment.
"Just for losing one competition, you are taking it so hard?" Luo Shu asked, looking at Ouyang Yi. He, at Mid Foundation Establishment, was confronting her at Golden Core Mid Stage with Divine Sense—isn’t that like seeking death? But indeed, she hadn’t shown any mercy either, crippling his cultivation. Even if he could survive, he would no longer be able to cultivate.
"You’re ruthless!" Ouyang Yi glared at Luo Shu with rage-filled eyes, wishing he could tear her apart. Only he knew the amount of hard work and sweat he had put into reaching his level of cultivation today. Yet Luo Shu had mercilessly destroyed it all. For him, without cultivation, he was as good as a cripple. Was there any difference between living and being dead?
"Aren’t you the same?" Luo Shu sneered mockingly. If she hadn’t been stronger in cultivation, she would have been the one to end up in this situation.
"Luo Shu!" Xiao Yan and others quickly rushed over to Luo Shu.
As Zhang Qi passed Ouyang Yi, she deliberately bumped into him. Even though she had to admit that Ouyang Yi was very capable, she still disliked seeing him.
Ouyang Yi staggered a few steps and fell to the ground with a thud; then he "poofed," spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Zhang Qi was so scared that she froze on the spot, "I just bumped into him a little, it can’t be that serious, can it?"
"This is a case of his anger turning into extreme distress because he lost the competition," Luo Shu explained.
Zhang Qi sighed with relief, patting her chest lightly, "Good! I was so scared."
"I didn’t expect him to be so fragile."
"If he can’t take a loss, he shouldn’t compete at all!" The crowd had no sympathy for Ouyang Yi.
Seeing this, several professors from the judge’s bench quickly came forward, checked Ouyang Yi’s condition, and all frowned. Ouyang Yi’s condition was too unexpected; his meridians were in disarray, indicating a severe internal injury.
"Luo Shu, can you cure him?" Professor Li asked, looking at Luo Shu.
The other professors also turned their gaze towards Luo Shu.
"He’s suffering from his inability to accept this result leading to extreme distress. A few days of rest should suffice for recovery," Luo Shu said. Now, only the Nine-Leaf Lotus Seed could cure Ouyang Yi’s condition. Since she was the one who had injured him, naturally she wouldn’t be the one to treat him, much less waste a Nine-Leaf Lotus Seed on him.
"Really?" While some were skeptical of this explanation, it was the most reasonable one at the moment. Yet, they were still surprised at Ouyang Yi’s weak mental endurance. Losing a competition didn’t warrant spitting blood in anger!
Luo Shu smiled and nodded, "Professors, please be assured! Ouyang Yi’s medical skills are quite impressive, he will definitely take good care of himself."
Having thought about it, everyone nodded in agreement.
Nevertheless, they called a couple of students to help take Ouyang Yi to the school’s hospital for recuperation. A medical prodigy like him naturally had to be well-protected.
Ouyang Yi gave Luo Shu a deep look, his eyes filled with malice, resentment, and unwillingness... He had lost thoroughly! But he would wait to see Luo Shu meet the same fate. Perhaps her end would be even more tragic!
Luo Shu replied with a scornful smile and averted her gaze.
"Such a big man, and he can’t handle losing, winding up with an internal injury—it’s really something."
"Who cares! In the end, our Luo Shu is the best!"
"Exactly! Competing in medical skills with Luo Shu is just asking for punishment."
"Let’s go have a grand meal to celebrate properly."
"Luo Shu, today Yujuan and I will treat you!" Li Hui said with a smile. He hadn’t yet properly thanked Luo Shu for curing his maternal grandfather’s illness last time, and this was the perfect opportunity to show his gratitude.
"Great!" Luo Shu smiled and nodded, exiting the gymnasium surrounded by the crowd.
Everyone went to a restaurant opposite the school, and luckily, the restaurant had private rooms, so they booked one.
"To Luo Shu, we toast you!" Everyone lifted their sodas, smiling at Luo Shu. Since the incident with industrial alcohol poisoning, they rarely ordered alcohol when dining out.
Luo Shu stood up with a smile, clinked glasses with everyone, "Cheers!"
"Cheers!" Everyone laughed in unison, raising their glasses and draining the soda in one gulp.
