X-Dragon Era

Chapter 199: Chapters 161-162: The Pinnacle Battle



Under the watchful gaze of all the students, Instructor Mei Wu swayed her voluptuous hips and gracefully stepped toward the side door, sauntering through it with a flirtatious air.

Up until now, no one could move. In order to leave freely, they had to wait for the two chief students to exit. Therefore, whether they liked it or not, everyone had to stand straight and silently watch Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, waiting for the pair to leave. Under everyone's gaze, Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying gently pushed their chairs away and turned around, but did not leave immediately.

Surveying the room, the two girls proudly lifted their heads, and then... Yan Qingying spoke in a cold voice, "Since the free challenge has begun, we, as the two chief students, must set an example. So... the first challenge invitation will be issued by the two of us."

As soon as Yan Qingying's words ended, Yi Luo Xiang picked up, "I know that many are dissatisfied with us becoming the chief students, therefore... to be fair, the two of us officially challenge the chief students of all classes to battle within the coming month, one by one!"

"Dare you!" Just as Yi Luo Xiang's words fell, Yan Qingying's low and icy voice followed.

With the astonishing announcement by Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, the entire classroom fell completely silent; everyone stared dumbfounded at the two girls. Did they really have such confidence?

Feeling everyone's gaze, Yi Luo Xiang chuckled softly, and reaching out with her left hand, she leaned on the chair of the chief student and said, "Certainly, many of you want this position. Now that we have given the opportunity, don't tell me you're too scared to take it!"

Facing the girls' repeated provocations, finally... all eyes turned toward the chief students of each class, and under everyone's scrutiny, the eleven chiefs understood that at this point, not responding was definitely not an option.

The first to respond was the chief student of Color One class. Although Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying were from Color One class, they held the positions of overall chiefs for the First Year Section and did not take up the quota for the class chief.

Looking at the two girls with sharpness in his eyes, the chief student of Color One class spoke coldly, "Even if you hadn't said anything, I would have challenged you on my own. Since you've taken the initiative to offer, it suits me just fine... I accept your challenge!"

Following the acceptance by Color One's chief student, next... Red Two, Orange Three, Yellow Four, Green Five... the chief students of each class expressed their stance one after another, unanimously accepting the challenge from the two girls.

Finally, the chief students of all ten classes agreed to the challenge. In that moment, everyone turned their heads, directing their gaze toward the back of the classroom where, by the wall, stood a student from the unofficial Eleven class, amid a mixture of laughter and mockery.

Towards these students who didn't earn their place through their own merit, the regular students always held a strong disdain, even contempt. But everyone knew that even a class like that had its chief student, although... in everyone's mind, the chief of the unofficial Eleven class could not compare to even the most ordinary student of the other classes.

After all, the students from other classes, no matter how poor their performance, were officially admitted through examination, while the strongest in the unofficial Eleven class were those who had mixed in by sheer luck or cleverness; there was no comparison.

Under the mockery of the crowd, Xin Yun flexed his back, pushing away from the wall, and under the gaze of thousands, he displayed nothing but smiles on his face, though without any rush to respond.

Seeing Xin Yun's calm and composed demeanor, Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying both clenched their fists. Although they had been questioning him the whole time, Xin Yun simply wouldn't disclose his plans, only assuring them to go ahead with the challenge. So even they were extremely nervous.

After a few seconds of silence, under everyone's watch, Xin Yun shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, and without a flush or pant, he said, "Sorry, I refuse your challenge!"

"Ah!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, including Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, everyone gasped. Wasn't that too cowardly? It was just a challenge match, after all; with an instructor's protection, it couldn't be fatal, at most just painful. Not daring to face even that, could he still be considered a man?

First stunned, but soon... everyone began to curse in disdain, blaming him for everything. Even Xin Yun's classmates took part in the mockery.

In the face of everyone's curses, Xin Yun lazily cleaned his ears, an expression of indifference across his face. He flicked his fingernails, flicking away the dust from the crevices, and then Xin Yun looked up again, smiling as he said, "Not every challenge must be accepted, the academy doesn't have such a rule, right?"

At Xin Yun's words, all the students were taken aback for a moment, only for the cacophony of curses to burst forth once more, seemingly even more ferocious.

Completely ignoring the surrounding curses, Xin Yun smiled at Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying, who wore faces of surprise, and declared, "I was actually considering accepting, but unfortunately, I don't really have the time. Actually... my thinking is the same as yours!" Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, looking at Xin Yun in disbelief. What did he mean, 'the same thinking'?

As everyone stared in stunned silence, Xin Yun abruptly hardened his expression and, without any courtesy, extended his right hand. Pointing with his index finger, he shouted authoritatively, "You! You! You... and you! I challenge you as well!

Have the guts to accept, or not?"

As everyone's eyes followed where Xin Yun was pointing, they all opened their mouths in shock—the targets of Xin Yun's finger were no other than the ten chiefs from the other ten classes, aside from the unofficial Eleven class!
