X-Dragon Era-Chapter 608 - s The Ultimate Move

So what if your strength is high and your abilities are strong? Aren't you still just being played with by the clever ones, without even having to offer them any benefits? With just a few casual words, you can easily shackle them, and regardless of whether they are willing or not, they must slave away for Mountain Sea City, for Mountain Sea Academy for the rest of their lives, pitiful... how tragic!

The more everyone thought about it, the angrier they became, until finally... Po Kong angrily lowered his voice and resolutely said, "Damn it... Mountain Sea Academy is going too far, I'd rather not participate in this competition than end up with such an evaluation."

Faced with Po Kong's words, the other three also expressed their stance on the spot, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan naturally did not wish to become such pitiful characters, so they firmly supported Po Kong.

In response to the stance of everyone, Xin Yun laughed and said, "No, why not participate in the competition? Just like everyone initially thought, we are competing for ourselves, not for the academy, it's just... the regulations the academy has made, we don't necessarily have to follow them, the things they offer, we don't necessarily have to accept them, right?"

"Huh?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, everyone furrowed their brows, but soon, everyone became excited, that's right... offering or not, that was the academy's business, but whether to accept it or not, the power was still theirs!

Be it the Special Honors Award or the Lifetime Achievement Award, including the Honorary Elder, the academy could offer them, but while offering, they could also refuse them and directly make their stance clear — these ethereal titles were not needed. In this way, the academy would be in a dilemma.

After all, Xin Yun's side was representing the academy in battle; whether they won a place or not, the academy couldn't just show nothing, otherwise, it would be too shameful; no academy so stingy and no one would dare attend such a stingy academy.

However, since they didn't want what was offered, the academy naturally had to think of something else. If they couldn't come up with even that, it would be even more pitiable. How could such a large academy not manage their students' rewards? Could they still be trusted?

One could say that at present, the initiative is in the hands of the academy, but once Xin Yun and the others refuse to accept the so-called special honors and other rewards, they would successfully seize the initiative in their hands. If you have the ability, don't give anything, but if you do give, it must satisfy everyone, worthy of the effort we've put in and the achievements we've attained. You can't just decide what to award; we're not children anymore. A few pale praises, a few Ethereal titles, those are just trash, whoever likes it can take it.

Once they understood Xin Yun's idea, everyone got very excited and promptly agreed with his plan. In fact... except for Po Kong, the others were not likely to go against Xin Yun's will, whether right or wrong, as long as Xin Yun really decided, then even if it's wrong, it was right! This was not a problem at all.

The only one who needed convincing was Po Kong, and with his character and pride, he was exactly the type who hated being manipulated, fooled, and used. Thus, with a single statement, he was instantly convinced. One must know... Po Kong was the future heir of the number one family of the world; if he was played, fooled, or used, it wouldn't just be losing his own face, but also the face of his entire family would have been lost utterly, even if he took over as the family head later on, this would be a shame he could never wash away.

While the group discussed, the Dean had already finished his speech and the first group competition had even started amidst their anger. The thunderous explosions echoed violently throughout the valley and it wasn't until this moment that Xin Yun and the others finally stopped their discussions and began paying attention to the conditions within the arena.

Until this point in the competition, those who could advance to the semifinals were obviously teams with super-strong abilities, and so... as soon as the match started, an intense battle unfolded.

However, as far as this competition was concerned, Xin Yun really had nothing to say, not that his vocabulary was too poor, nor that the opponents' strength was too weak. As said before, there were no weak ones who had come this far.

But if Xin Yun really had to evaluate, he could only say that everything was by the book, standard, everyone's strength was formidable, their coordination was in sync, and it was brilliant. Beyond that, no other comments could be found.

To put it simply, it was a match that was intense but not thrilling. Although they fought with a bang and everyone was playing at a textbook level, facing such textbook battles, Xin Yun was too lazy to comment. If you really want to know, just flip through a textbook or watch a battle scene from any novel, and you'll get the idea.

In fact, not only Xin Yun, but also the other members of the Fantasy Dream Team felt the same way. Faced with such battles, they couldn't muster the slightest bit of interest. Frankly speaking, it was like watching several wind-up puppets fighting, all lively in motion but too mechanical and rigid, without a single glint of inspiration to be seen.

Finally, the fierce battle ended, and the fight on the field concluded with one side annihilated and the other side suffering the collapse of one member, thus securing the ultimate victory. Simultaneously... this team also became the first to enter the finals.
