Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

When Li Nanshen saw that her complexion was still normal without showing any sign of fatigue, he couldn’t help but sigh too. He cast aside his brush and acknowledged with a smile, “I have lost.”

There was no need to continue competing. From how the little lady started writing without any hesitation, she should have no problem reading the contents of that paper 15 kilometers away.

Moreover, he felt like he would not be able to accomplish this task as effortlessly as she was doing.

His head was already getting dizzy from looking at those cluttered characters on the piece of paper.

Li Nanshen knew that his sight was slightly dull right now because he had overused his spiritual conscious.

If he was to continue utilizing his spiritual conscious, it would also affect his conscious pool. Hence, Li Nanshen decisively cast his brush aside and admitted defeat.

He stood up and gave Qiao Mu a slight nod. He said with a chuckle, “Miss truly has an impressive spiritual conscious. Nanshen acknowledges my inferiority in skill.”

Qiao Mu also nodded toward him and responded indifferently, “This friend is exaggerating.”

After Li Nanshen left the stage, the head referee, Hong Chi, walked up and glanced silently at Qiao Mu. “The overall ranking and the individual ranking will be recalculated according to the points you obtained in the first two components. The results will be announced tomorrow morning.”

Qiao Mu nodded. According to this progression, their Apex Academy would definitely come out on top.

Even if they did not take first or second place, they would at least rank third.

There was no doubt that she would go to Blinsheet Island.

Unless those academies colluded together and plotted against them in secret, otherwise Apex Academy would stand on the podium.

Of course, if those academies and mentors still had a sense of shame, they probably wouldn’t do something so disgusting in front of everyone’s eyes.

Qiao Mu stood up after some contemplation.

“Alright, if there is nothing else, you are all dismissed.”

Since that was the case, everybody also started filing out the arena.

Everybody felt that these two components of the competition were extremely easy to execute, but when they saw Miss Qiao’s leisurely condition, they couldn’t help but be flooded with deep doubt.

However, since the head referee in charge of the competition did not show disapproval, this meant that the result Qiao Mu achieved in the spiritual conscious test held true.

After all, there were so many referees and so many eyes watching. It was impossible for everyone not to have noticed anything amiss.

When everybody from Apex Academy gathered back in the inn, they had extremely excited expressions.

After concluding the third component of the finals tomorrow, the list of academies heading to Blinsheet Island would be finalized. Zhou Danjin felt that their Apex Academy had a pretty good chance!

“I’m rather a bit curious about that Blinsheet Island now. I heard that they have presently opened up three spiritual domains on that island. It is supposed to be extremely helpful for cultivating spiritual energy.”

Qiao Mu asked them curiously upon hearing this. “Is that island very big?”

Zhou Danjin nodded. “It’s quite big. Besides, it’s a group of islands and islets over there. If they carefully open up more areas, they just might discover more spiritual domains.

“Since that is the case, why would these spiritual domains be allocated to the academies? The prefecture lords of the Six Prefectures won’t come snatch a land of treasure with such resources?”

“Oh, this is a rather interesting topic. It isn’t that the people from the Six Prefectures don’t want to step in.”

“It was just that it was very dangerous to explore the seas in the past. The Six Prefectures drafted explicit provisions to encourage the academies to explore.

“Any spiritual domains the academies discovered would belong to the academies. No prefecture lord would be able to meddle or interfere in this matter.”
