Chapter 284: Terrible
Chapter 284: Terrible
The committee member saw Ou Feng being carried away and was unhappy. He berated Xiang Ning and the rest. Do you know where you are right now?
Yes.
Then why the hell did you do that? Regardless of whose fault it was, everyone in the world is watching you. You arent just representing yourself, but also your city and academy. Every single one of your actions will be magnified here. Do you understand the consequences? The mans face was as black as ink.
Lei Zhongyuan and Mu Ronghua didnt intervene, just silently stood behind Xiang Ning and the rest as they observed the situation. It wasnt because they didn't want to, but the incident was caused by Xiang Ning and the rest of the students, so they had to bear the responsibility.
I understand, but I also understand that my academy and city have been tarnished by him. As a student, I have to defend the honor of my academy and city. What do you think?
Call me Wang. Ill investigate the details of the incident, but I have to penalize you for breaching the rules. The student that threw the punch will be banned from participating today as a warning. If the outcome of our investigation report isnt identical to what you said, well cancel your qualifications to participate in the upcoming matches! Leader Wang turned and left after giving them a warning. Because the match was starting, he had no choice but to give them a warning first as they conducted the investigation.
Wu Rui was crestfallen. Xiang Ning apologized to him, Sorry, I dragged you into my business.
Hmph! So what? It was my own action and had nothing to do with you. Even if I dont fight today, the rest of my teammates will still win todays match.
Isnt that right?! he shouted at his team.
Hell yeah! Dont worry about us, boss!
Dont even bother holding back! Go and fight with all your strength! Ill personally teach them a lesson in the match tomorrow! Wu Rui roared with determination. He was pissed.
The commotion in Xiang Nings rest area had already spread to the other areas. Some of them were discussing it, others were ignoring them. There were even some that were laughing at Xiang Ning and the rest of the Marsh City participants. Luo Lei was already furiously arranging some trolls to instigate and spread false rumors about Xiang Ning on the internet. He was blowing it up! Ill make you regret what you did to me!
In just a short amount of time, the news had spread all over the internet. Those who were paying attention to the movement of Xiang Ning and the rest were angered by the allegations and multiple arguments erupted across the web.
Most of them who knew Xiang Ning were scolding and reprimanding the reporters instead.
What the fuck? What kind of reporting is this?! We know how well-mannered Xiang Ning and the rest are! It was them who risked their lives on the front lines when Tranquil City was in danger!
Yeah! Do they think were idiots?!
Shit! Are they fucking criticizing our teacher Xiang Ning?!
Good job Wu Rui! Beat that reporter to a pulp!
But the rest of the worlds population who had no idea what was happening were already making their own conclusions and were frantically insulting Wu Rui. Most of their arguments were something along the lines of how could a student like him participate? and what kind of school taught a student like him?
Such was society. That was why many people werent able to tolerate arguments on the internet.
When the match was starting, numerous people started flooding the channel. Xiang Ning and his team were scheduled to come out in the last match.
Wu Ruis team was the first match of the day.
Look, its the barbaric team.
Hmph. To think theyd still come out and fight. Did the committee not revoke their qualifications to participate?
Their arena was set on flat land. It was terrain that was advantageous to both teams. Before the start of the match, leader Wang appeared on stage and made an announcement. The team from Marsh City violated the rules. As such, contestant Wu Rui will be barred from the qualifiers for today. The details of the situation are still under investigation. Do look forward to the results.
After he finished his announcement, the entire stadium was in an uproar. The match hadn't even begun, but someone had already broken the rules. The penalty was harsh too. It seemed that the team from Marsh City was destined to lose today.
The team that would be fighting against Wu Ruis team also thought it was a blessing from the heavens!
The camera panned to Wu Ruis face and everyone saw how pissed he was. Everyone thought that he was grumpy because he couldn't fight today, but in reality, he was thinking of something else.
Just wait! Ill make sure to turn your world upside down tomorrow!
The match had started! Wu Ruis team had sent out a tier three, three-star martial artist while the opposing side sent out a tier three, four-star martial artist. It was clear that the opposing side intended to completely suppress Wu Ruis team with sheer power. They had more members!
But the fight betrayed everyones expectations. After having been taught by Xiang Ning, Wu Ruis team member was able to easily defend against the attacks and even managed to land some hits in the opponents blind spots. Both of them were fighting on equal grounds until Wu Ruis team member managed to land a decisive blow at the last moment!
Shit! To think they could fight this fiercely!
Arent they conserving their strength for tomorrow?
Yeah! They still have two matches tomorrow!
If any of their team members are knocked out today, theyd all lose their chance of advancing into the next stage!
Hmph! As if they had a chance to begin with.
The other two teams that were scheduled to face Wu Ruis team tomorrow were laughing. Regardless of the outcome, Wu Rui would be at a disadvantage tomorrow. They were destined to lose. If they wanted to seize the slim chance of victory, they would have to pay the price today.
The opposing team wasnt happy.
Shit! Theyre trying to drag us down with them!
What should we do? Should we fight against them with our full strength?
The team leader finally made a decision. Fight with our full strength. If we cant win against them today therell be no chance tomorrow.
Understood!
The remaining battles were bloody and terrible. Wu Ruis team had to pay a heavy price as their opponents struggled like rabid dogs.
Whyre they doing this? Its just one match. If theyd forfeited they couldve won the remaining two matches and entered the wildcard round.
In the end, everyone had guessed wrongly as Wu Ruis team won three to one.
But they had paid the price. One of them was out of commission while the remaining three members were injured to varying degrees, which would greatly impact their performance tomorrow!
Doge & Chacha's Thoughts
Kekeke as if they would win just because Wu Rui is not participating.
