Chapter 63 Lei Ying's Mysterious Rumors
Xue Youyou was speechless at Lu Yuan's generous "pre-battle encouragement," yet she also felt a sense of unease.
She really didn't expect that after witnessing her return to her sheath, Lu Yuan would still believe that Lei Ying would win.
interesting.
Xue Youyou's pure, icy eyes deepened slightly as she turned and walked towards the virtual battle pod.
Seeing Xue Youyou silently sit down in the combat pod, in the last few seconds before the pod door closed, Meng Yanqing couldn't help but call out, "Youyou..."
Xue Youyou said firmly, "It's okay. No matter who the opponent is, I will lead you to victory."
As she spoke, she cleared her mind, cast aside all distractions, and quickly entered a state of flow.
Start linking...
Looking at Xue Youyou, who had calmed down and entered a state of unconsciousness inside the cabin, Luo Yan couldn't help but complain, "Is she a cold-blooded animal? This is against the Second King, Lei Ying!"
"Does she even realize that there's a huge gap between even the Ten Heavenly Kings?"
As everyone knows, the two Beast Tamers who rank first and second among the Ten Heavenly Kings are almost a level above the other eight in terms of strength.
This is also why Lu Yuan doesn't think highly of Xue Youyou.
Lin Feiyan, who was quickly defeated by Xue Youyou in the training match, was also quickly defeated by Lei Ying in the same way in the quarterfinals of last year's league.
It sold out instantly back then.
Moreover, it's more decisive and ruthless.
Although a year has passed, no beast tamer who witnessed that battle will forget Lei Ying's strength and terror.
Luo Yan broke down because she saw that Xue Youyou knew almost nothing about Lei Ying. She was about to share some information about Lei Ying, but before she could even speak, Xue Youyou had already confidently connected to the virtual battle network.
The village's last hope was gone.
In Luo Yan's opinion, if Xue Youyou really has powerful trump cards hidden as she expected, and if she understands Lei Ying's strengths and weaknesses in advance and formulates a scientific and reasonable battle strategy, she may not be without a chance of winning this battle.
Who would have thought that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Xue Youyou would deliberately abandon the information gap in this clash between the new and old kings and choose to confront them head-on.
Luo Yan said she was tired.
I was overjoyed tonight at dinner to be selected as a substitute for the first team. Who would have thought that before I even got comfortable in this substitute position, I would most likely face being eliminated on the very first day of the open selection.
It was all too fast and too sudden.
Luo Yan was not mentally prepared.
She still felt quite regretful that she couldn't go any further.
Not long ago, she was planning that once she made it to the main tournament, she could collect the latest match data from each team, which would give her enough time to analyze information for her own team and would definitely come in very handy.
As for now, all that's left is empty sorrow.
Unlike Luo Yan's self-abandonment, Meng Yanqing encouraged her teammates with an optimistic expression: "I rarely see Youyou with such an engaged expression. I think she must be very excited right now."
"Therefore, we must give it our all!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yutang clicked her tongue and said, "Are you a mind reader? How do you know her so well?"
"However, it's natural to go all out; I'm not so scared as to surrender outright."
Su Wanrou laughed and said, "I'm just scared, but I'm not cowardly."
Cui Yelan raised his hand and said, "Me too."
Meng Yanqing stretched out her hand, her gaze sweeping over the three of them, and said solemnly, "It's about time, let's go!"
The three of them understood, stepped forward, put their hands together, and shouted in unison, "Three, two, one, go!"
The four then lay down in the battle pod and connected to the battle network.
Watching this scene, Lu Yuan exclaimed, "It's truly exhilarating!"
"More than 20 years ago, I was the captain of the Lanzhiyuan team. Back then, I encouraged my teammates in the same way, which was also a way of encouraging myself."
Lu Yuan recalled that she sat down next to Luo Yan, intending to sit there and watch the live broadcast with her.
Luo Yan glanced at Lu Yuan secretly and said softly, "Compared to Xue Youyou, she seems more like a qualified captain, but unfortunately, she lacks strength."
Lu Yuan shrugged and said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. It's precisely because I know their strengths so well that I rationally bet on them to win."
The opportunity to communicate with the dean was rare, so Luo Yan took the chance to ask, "Is that rumor true? The twin daughters born to Lord Evil Thunder Marquis and the Ultimate Elemental Princess Thunder, the elder sister is a Beast Tamer, and the younger sister is the elder sister's innate companion beast."
Lu Yuan remained silent for a moment, unsure how to respond.
In fact, like Luo Yan, she had only heard rumors.
This involves the family affairs of the four noble families of Yuelan. Not to mention that she is only the head of Lanzhi Academy, even her sister, who is the lord of a city, has no right to interfere.
But if I say I don't know in front of the students, it makes me seem like I'm not a very qualified dean.
Just as Lu Yuan was pondering whether to simply say the rumors were true, since Luo Yan had no way of verifying them anyway, a voice that she would never forget rang out in the room.
"There are many deliberately spread false rumors in the world, all to cover up a more shocking truth, including what you just said, little girl."
The sound seemed to appear out of nowhere. Luo Yan looked around, trying to find the source of the sound, but there was no one in sight.
She wanted to ask Lu Yuan a question, but found that Lu Yuan, who had been sitting next to her just moments before, was now kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.
While Luo Yan was stunned, a mature and beautiful woman dressed in a turquoise dress walked out of the void.
Upon seeing the woman's face, which bore a striking resemblance to Meng Yanqing's, Luo Yan's pupils constricted sharply.
Marquis Qingming?!
Luo Yan immediately stood up and bowed, "Hello... hello!"
Meng Tianxiang nodded to Luo Yan in response.
He then looked at Lu Yuan and questioned her in an unhappy tone, "I just wanted to join in the fun and watch my granddaughter's match. Why did you kneel on the ground as soon as you saw me?"
Lu Yuan still dared not get up, and asked in a trembling voice, "When did you arrive, sir?"
Strictly speaking, her behavior of buying escort services is explicitly prohibited by the alliance. This matter can be a big deal or a small deal. If she does it in private, no one will care. But if she says it in front of Meng Tianxiang, one of the four lords of the alliance, the nature of the matter is different. It is equivalent to openly challenging the authority of the alliance.
Upon hearing this, Meng Tianxiang's voice immediately rose eight octaves as she retorted, "Do you think I, the dignified Marquis of Qingming, would hide in the shadows and eavesdrop on the conversation between two juniors like you?"
Hard to say.
Of course, Lu Yuan only dared to think those two words in her heart.
However, Meng Tianxiang's attitude has made it clear that she will not pursue the matter of her buying into the gambling industry.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly invited Meng Tianxiang to sit down, saying with a smile, "How could that be? Please sit down, sir. Let's watch together, let's watch together."
After Meng Tianxiang sat down, she pointed to the two seats next to her and said, "You two sit down too."
At Meng Tianxiang's prompting, Lu Yuan and Luo Yan had no choice but to sit down next to each other, but they were both a little uneasy and dared not breathe.
Seeing this, Meng Tianxiang said with dissatisfaction, "Say something! We were chatting just now, why did everyone go silent as soon as I arrived?"
At this moment, the screen is in the loading screen, and the battle between Lanzhi Academy Team 1 and Leiming Academy Team 2 is about to begin.
Lu Yuan was naturally most concerned about the outcome of this battle, so she asked Meng Tianxiang, "My lord, if I may be so bold as to ask, in your opinion as an ultimate beast tamer, who will win this battle?"
Meng Tianxiang's eyes widened, startling Lu Yuan, who then slowly said, "Did I come here specifically to see my granddaughter lose?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately became anxious and, disregarding etiquette, retorted, "But Lei Ying, the daughter of the wicked Marquis Lei, is not to be underestimated either!"
"Hmm..." Faced with Lu Yuan's questioning, Meng Tianxiang pondered for a moment, then took out a letter from her bosom and slammed it on the tea table, saying in a deep voice, "Read it yourself."
Lu Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief as she stammered, "This...this..."
Seeing Lu Yuan's strange reaction, Luo Yan couldn't suppress her curiosity any longer. Even without Meng Tianxiang's permission, she secretly glanced at the letter on the table.
I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.
[Challenge Letter - I, Xue Youyou, hereby challenge Meng Tianxiang to a pet battle. Time: XXXXXX. Contact number: XXXXXXXXXXX]
This is insane!
Luo Yan's mouth was wide open, her face showing the same shock as Lu Yuan's.
In a daze, Luo Yan vaguely realized Meng Tianxiang's true purpose in coming here.
I'm afraid it is—
Meng Tianxiang clasped her hands together and placed them on her lap, saying meaningfully, "So, I came here specifically to see what level this student who dared to challenge the ultimate beast tamer is at."
