Chapter 244: Scheduled to Be Fifth???

Regarding Middle Saint Academy and the Nanzhan Academy, everyone knows that Nanzhan Academy was the fifth oldest academy in the South continent and ranked at the end of the five Imperial Academies for several years.

There hadn’t been anything outstanding in the past few years, so it could be considered stable.

On the other hand was the Middle Saint Academy, the fourth-ranked academy in the South continent a long time ago with a very glorious history. It was in the first place a very long time ago. However, some juniors had no idea that the Middle Saint Academy had once been number one.

But they know that their strength had been continuously declining over the years. So when the five academies’ members competed, it wasn’t very reassuring.

There was no increase but continuous declination from the first to the second to the third and then the fourth.

Looking at the continuous decline of Middle Saint Academy’s ranking, this was worse than the stable Nanzhan Academy. Although Nanzhan’s performance was mediocre, landing in fifth, at least its standards had been remarkably stable over the years.

This was unlike the Middle Saint Academy, which was getting worse every time.

So what would happen at the five Imperial Academies’ grand competition this time?

“It will be interesting. I heard that Su Le should not be underestimated. His strength is extraordinary. Do you know of Yan Wei too? It looks like he is quite capable too. I wonder who will win.”

“It’s hard to say. I feel that their power should be about the same. After all, the Middle Saint Academy still holds the title of the fourth-ranked academy. So even though Yan Wei is in tenth place, his strength should not be much weaker than the top 3 of Nanzhan, the bottom of the five academies!”

Boom!

While everyone was discussing, the two of them had already stepped onto the stage. Yan Wei was the first to launch an attack. He enveloped his entire body with spiritual energy as he sent out a punch. Flames soared into the sky and made him look extraordinary. On the other hand, Su Le, who was standing opposite him, only gripped his hammer tightly and lowered his body. There wasn’t anything special about him.

Maybe Yan Wei would be the one to win. The thought came into everyone’s mind. However, before they could even think about it, who knew, the situation changed instantly!

Dong!

Su Le lowered his body slightly as the flames were just about to reach. Then, a shadow flashed, and his figure disappeared.

This happened too fast and in a rapid moment. Before anyone could even think about what happened, Yan Wei had already been sent flying.

Clamour!

The entire stadium was in an uproar!

Regardless of whether they supported the Middle Saint Academy or the Nanzhan Academy, everyone was in disbelief as they looked at the stage.

Even though they had predicted that one side would lose, they couldn’t possibly lose so quickly, could they?

How long has he even stood on the stage?

Dong, dong, dong!

The emcee was expressionless as he knocked on the table, sending out rings that could be seen with the naked eye, suppressing the crowd’s voices.

He announced the victory of Nanzhan Academy.

He followed to shake the Absolute Spirit Box, and two jade talismans fell out.

The emcee picked up the jade talismans and swept his gaze over them. He then casted his look in the direction of the Middle Sage Academy, feeling a little strange.

At this moment, the crowd was still in a heated discussion. Everyone was a little stunned by what happened to Yan Wei.

If the opponent were a student from one of the top three academies, they would understand. After all, the Middle Sage Academy’s current strength was lacking. But the opponent was clearly from the fifth-ranked Nanzhan Academy. No matter what, they should have at least been able to hold for a few rounds.

This was too fast.

“I can’t believe it. So this is the actual strength of the top ten of the Middle Saint Academy?”

Everyone shook their heads. At this moment, the emcee announced the candidates for the next round loudly.

Next up is Duan Ke, the tenth rank from the East Saint Academy, known for the Bone-piercing Hands, against Feng Shuyi, the ninth rank from the Middle Saint Academy.

“It’s the Middle Saint Academy again?”

“It was the tenth-ranked just now, and now it’s ninth-ranked. So are they trying to get eliminated one by one?”

“Not necessarily. Feng Shuyi has this breeze surrounding him, and his vibe seems to be decent. So maybe there will be a surprise.”

As everyone entered the arena with some expectations in their mind, Feng Shuyi didn’t even have the opportunity to show off his skills before Duan ke leaped onto him and suppressed him with just a few moves. In the end, Feng Shuyi is grabbed by the neck by Duan Ke with one hand and thrown off the stage in humiliation.

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

There is no surprise at all. These two were complete amateurs!

The person ranked tenth is usually called the goalkeeper. This is because he was the weakest out of the ten people in the academy.

Although the opponent is from East Saint Academy, Feng Shuyi only managed to last four to five rounds. Furthermore, he had been suppressed the entire time. Wasn’t this a little too much?

With this strength, even the spectators could go up and win.

The tenth and ninth place of the Middle Saint Academy only has this level of skills?

The surrounding spectators shook their heads one after another and were about to leave. The opening two rounds of the Middle Saint Academy had caused them to lose all interest!

It was only two rounds, and the Middle Saint Academy already had two practitioners gone. So how could they continue fighting?

In the floating spectator stand, some of the older practitioners, and even a teacher from another academy threw their heads back and laughed a few times. He turned his head to look at the Dean of the Middle Saint Academy, his gaze filled with ridicule.

“Your Middle Saint Academy isn’t aiming for the fifth place this year, is it?”

When these words were said, the entire audience burst into laughter.

Against the East Saint Academy, even though they were ranked tenth, the tenth place of the East Saint Academy was also just existence as a goalkeeper. So definitely, he was not very strong, but the Middle Saint Academy still suffered a crushing defeat in the end.

In the previous competition, the Middle Saint Academy was still ranked fourth. Were they planning to rank fifth now?

Let the fifth place overtook them?

They were really getting worse year by year!

The Dean of the Middle Saint Academy looked at the Yan Wei and Feng Shuyi and shook his head with a smile.

If not for the appearance of Xuan Yi, these two people might even be in the top five or even the top three camps of the Middle Saint Academy. If that were the case, they would have lost even more face today.

The Dean of the Middle Saint Academy shook his head slightly and glanced at the indifferent Xuan Yi. Confidence rose in his heart.

Middle Saint Academy was lucky to have met Xuan Yi!

The Dean smiled but didn’t say anything.

The emcee on the stage looked calm. After announcing the results, he continued to pull out the jade talisman.

After a few rounds, it is finally Middle Saint Academy’s turn again.

The tenth-ranked of the West Star Academy, Mao An, against the fifth-ranked of the Middle Saint Academy, Xiao Hong!

“Isn’t this a sure win for me?”

Mao An revealed a smile on his lips. Then, brimming with confidence, he stomped on the ground and shot straight into the fighting ring like a sharp sword.

Even though he is ranked tenth, he is the tenth-ranked of the second-ranked West Star Academy!

Even though he is the goalkeeper, but against the students of other academies, he wasn’t the slightest bit weaker!

“My luck is good!”

West Star Academy’s number ten, Mao An, smiled on his face as he leaped onto the fighting ring.

He is ranked tenth, while West Star Academy was ranked second among the five Imperial Academies. Although he was not comparable to East Saint Academy, his strength wasn’t too bad either. When the academy’s strength was reflected on the students like them, the most direct point was that even though they were all ranked tenth with the goalkeeper ranking, his strength wasn’t inferior to the majority of the people from the lower-ranked academies!

Especially when the opponent was the Middle Saint Academy, whose ranking had been continuously declining. Over the years, the Middle Saint Academy had been getting worse and worse. The previous few sessions of the West Star Academy had still maintained some reverence towards the Middle Saint Academy.

Now?

Just by looking at the first two matches of the Middle Saint Academy, one would know just how much the Middle Saint Academy’s strength had declined!

Swoosh!

Mao An held a small knife with spirit patterns faintly flickering on it. It seems extraordinary.

He pointed in the direction of the Middle Saint Academy and looked proudly at the entire arena.

“Come on. Today is my lucky day. Don’t blame yourself for being unlucky. Xiao Hong, even if you want to fight against the other academies, you will still lose. It doesn’t matter who you lose to. Let’s end this quickly!”
