Chapter 203 This woman must not be allowed to live.
On the platform, the duke and the four marquises were also speechless with shock at these words.
Lord of Purgatory, Lin Yan, slowly leaned back in his chair. A rare, complex expression appeared on his usually arrogant face.
She shook her head and said in a tone that even she herself could hardly believe, "I never expected that this college league would give me such a strong sense of déjà vu, like I was back in my student days."
This feeling is so intense.
In front of Xue Youyou, she, the dignified Marquis of Purgatory and one of the top ten beast tamers in Yue Lanzhou, actually felt like a clueless novice student listening to a teacher's lecture.
The people beside him nodded slightly in agreement.
The composure Xue Youyou exuded in every gesture was definitely not just due to her great strength.
Her insight is also beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Among the five, there were joys and sorrows.
Meng Tianxiang's lips curved into a smile that almost reached her ears, her smugness and satisfaction undisguised—this was the grandson-in-law she had chosen, so of course the stronger the better, the more capable the better for her.
The more amazing Xue Youyou's performance was, the more she felt that her decision not to kill Xue Youyou was the right one.
However, Lord Xinglan, Bao Yunxing, was filled with worry.
Her gaze fell on the graceful young woman in the commentary booth, and her brows unconsciously furrowed into a knot.
As the saying goes, it's not the reckless man you should fear, but the reckless man with a brain.
Although she didn't want to admit it, the facts were right in front of her—this Xue Youyou seemed to really be quite accomplished in both literature and martial arts.
Not only was her strength unfathomable, but her knowledge was also incredibly broad. She could recount the origins of a golden skill that even the most powerful and influential people didn't know, and she even included historical anecdotes, giving the billions of viewers in Lanzhou a lesson.
This is no longer just "powerful"; it's a super numerical monster with no blind spots in any aspect.
Add to that Xue Youyou's fearless personality, and the waters of Yue Lanzhou will likely never be calm again.
Bao Yunxing sighed softly and rubbed his slightly aching temples.
If she doesn't do something, she probably won't be able to hold onto her position as leader of the alliance for long.
This woman must not be allowed to live!
On the arena, Mutsuki, who had just won the match, was leading the Gekiyouin team out of the battle barrier.
Her steps were originally very light and quick—after all, she had just instantly killed an Ultimate-level beast, and it was a feat that anyone could boast about for a lifetime, using a Perfect-level pet to defeat an Ultimate-level pet.
She had a smug smile on her lips, ready to receive cheers and admiring glances from the audience.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the barrier, she heard Xue Youyou's voice echoing slowly from the commentary booth.
"The Heavenly Net Silkworm Catcher is a skill used by the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy for courtship..."
"Because the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy is such a rare species..."
"It was used to cover the entire planet, launching a comprehensive search..."
Mutsuki's smile froze on her face.
She stopped in her tracks.
She turned her head in disbelief to look at the long-haired, snow-white girl in the commentary booth who was smilingly pulling down her underwear. She felt a surge of heat rush from the soles of her feet to her head, and her whole face began to burn.
This guy—
She exposed all the secrets of the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy!
In front of billions of viewers!
They even know about courtship!
Mutsuki felt her blood pressure soaring, her teeth grinding together, and her knuckles turning white from clenching her fists.
The mysterious and powerful image she had painstakingly cultivated was completely shattered by Xue Youyou's few casual words.
In the future, when viewers see the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy's Heavenly Net Silkworm-Catching Skill, the first thing that will come to mind won't be some "world-destroying golden skill," but rather, they'll blurt out—"Oh, that's the skill used to find a partner!"
"This guy..."
Mutsuki glared at Yuki Yuuyu on the commentary platform, her teeth itching, and squeezed out those words.
Just then, Xue Youyou lowered her head and saw Mutsuki, who had just walked out of the barrier.
Their eyes met again in the air.
This time, Mutsuki's eyes no longer held the same composed and playful expression as before. Her face flushed slightly, and her eyes clearly showed anger and shame at being publicly exposed.
She suddenly raised her right hand, her five fingers together, and drew a line across her slender neck, making a clean and decisive beheading gesture towards Xue Youyou.
The meaning couldn't be clearer—you just wait.
After making that gesture, Mutsuki didn't even bother with the post-match winner's interview, and turned around with lingering anger, striding towards the players' tunnel.
The four members of the Moonlight Academy looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly followed their captain. The group soon disappeared at the entrance of the contestant passage.
Meanwhile, the five members of the Ghost Institute also silently left the arena from the other side.
Manlu walked at the front of the group. Her eyes were still red and the tear stains had not completely dried, but her gait had returned to its usual steady pace.
The four teammates behind him were equally dejected. After all, as the defending champions, being swept out so cleanly in the semifinals would be a blow to anyone.
The sound of five people's footsteps echoed in the narrow passage, dull and oppressive.
As luck would have it, when they reached the middle of the passage, a group of people walked towards them.
It's the team from Leiming Academy.
Lei Ying walked at the front, hands in her pockets, looking every bit the boss.
The two teams unexpectedly met in the narrow player tunnel, and an indescribable, subtle atmosphere instantly filled the air.
As the winner of the previous finals, they fell in the semifinals this time, and to make matters worse, their former opponent witnessed this scene, making the encounter rather awkward.
Moreover, there is a ten-minute halftime break, and the opposing team seems to have started a bit too early.
Lei Ying stopped and suddenly said, "I came out early on purpose to wait for you."
Looking at Manluo's miserable appearance, her eyes were red and her eyelashes were still wet with tears. The once high and mighty chief of the Ten Heavenly Kings looked like a little kitten that had been dragged out of its nest.
Manluo also looked at Lei Ying without saying a word.
A moment of silence.
Then, Lei Ying continued speaking.
"How could we lose like this?"
Lei Ying's voice wasn't loud, and there was no sarcasm or gloating in her tone; it was simply a calm statement: "I know your strength is definitely more than that, isn't it?"
"Why don't you try to resist again?"
Manlu raised her head and looked at the opponent she had defeated in the previous competition.
According to her teammates, many busybodies even consider her and Lei Ying to be sworn enemies.
Manluo was silent for a few seconds, then gently shook her head.
"I have my reasons, but I can't tell you."
"Besides, her true strength is far more than that. Even if I use all my strength, I still can't defeat her... That's enough."
Manluo's voice was still slightly hoarse, but her tone was surprisingly calm, so calm that it didn't seem like someone who had just been brought to tears in front of billions of viewers: "You don't need to be sad for me."
"You get all the pleasure, but who's saddened by it all!"
Lei Ying sneered, "No matter the reason, I absolutely cannot accept a Beast Tamer not giving their all in battle!"
Manluo trembled upon hearing this, looked at Lei Ying with a complicated expression, and said, "You don't understand..."
Lei Ying shook her head in disappointment, walked past Manluo, and said sternly, "I definitely don't understand, because for me, even if the other person is my beloved, my mother... no matter who it is, as long as they are in the opponent's position, I will absolutely not show the slightest mercy! I will absolutely fight with all my might!"
