Chapter 716
Dongfang Yu shook his head slightly, "No,"
"It's not?"
"The College Tournament has a rule. The first placed college is the one that hosts the next tournament," Dongfang Yu explained.
"So the last tournament was won by Lingyin College?" Xia Zhiqing frowned. Although she had not been to Lingyin College, she had a feeling of dislike towards it.
Dongfang Yu and Gong Shaoqing looked at each other with a bit of helplessness, then they answered, "Not only the last time, but also the time before was won by Lingyin College."
"It is precisely because of this that the Canglan College has been suppressed. It has been many years since it has been able to compete with the Lingyin and Beihai Colleges."
Gong Shaoqing's eyes flashed with solemnity. "We have a great responsibility during this tournament. If we lose again, Lingyin college would have won three consecutive tournaments. Then the reputation of our college, which has just risen will fall back to the bottom. We have to do our best this time."
Gong Shaoqing's handsome face was serious and filled with decisiveness. He had a great feeling of belonging to the Canglan College. Therefore he did not want to see it fall to such depths.
Hearing the words, everyone nodded their heads. As a student of the college, they decided to do their best.
"However, in addition to us, there is also the Beihai College. Is it possible for them to win?" Bai Junyu thought out loud.
Since there were three colleges, all three had to fight against one another. Why did Gong Shaoqing only consider the Lingyin College their opponents?
"Beihai College has already formed an alliance with the Lingyin College. Therefore they will work together to deal with us. At the beginning, our princ.i.p.al and the princ.i.p.al of Lingyin College had an argument because of Lingyin college being sponsored by the Qing Dynasty. That time our college lost, and our princ.i.p.al had to admit that the Lingyin College was right."
When the words were said, Baili Hongzhuang and the others were shocked. They did not expect such a thing had happened.
At the thought of this, everyone felt heavy and that there was a burden on their shoulders.
If they were to lose this time, not only would the princ.i.p.al lose face, he might also have to give up the values he believed in.
"That d.a.m.ned Lingyin College Princ.i.p.al. I have not seen him yet, and I already think he is annoying!" Xia Zhiqing said angrily.
In her eyes, although she did not have much contact with the princ.i.p.al, she still felt that he was a good princ.i.p.al.
As a member of Canglan College, how could she let her princ.i.p.al bow to another?
In the eyes of Baili Hongzhuang all doubts were gone. It seemed that they could only win this tournament.
"Master in my opinion, this time Lingyin College and Beihai College will definitely try to make a lot of problems for you," Little Black said.
Baili Hongzhuang nodded her head slightly. "Only this time, Lingyin College can not win, and they will definitely pay for it."
Next the red lips of Baili Hongzhuang rose into a smile, "The stronger the opponent, the more motivated I am to battle. I am looking forward to this."
Baili Hongzhuang and a group of eight people rushed to the Qing Dynasty. As a cultivator, whether it was energy or endurance they were far above ordinary people.
Therefore they would travel much faster than others.
Finally, after rus.h.i.+ng for half a month they arrived at the border of the Qing Dynasty.
Languang Town.
Everyone walked on the streets of Languang Town. As a border town, it was not at all deserted, instead in was actually incredibly bustling with life. People came and went and the trade was prosperous.
As soon as they walked into the town, they all showed a smile on their faces, their feeling of exhaustion was reduced.
"We have been resting in the forest these last two days and now we have arrived at a town. We can get a meal first and then find an inn to rest in?" Cui Haoyan suggested.
These days they have been eating dry food, no hot meals.
"Agreed!" Everyone answered. They had been running for so long that they are tired.
What's more, when resting in the wild, they could never relax their spirit. Even when they were asleep they had to be alert, however in an inn they could sleep without a worry.
Everyone were hungry and just wanted to choose a restaurant where they could eat. Finally they stopped at the door to a restaurant.
As they walked in, they found that the place was filled with people, it was immensely lively.
"We will eat here, what do you think?" Cui Haoyan asked with a smile.
"Okay," The faces of all the students were filled with a relaxed smile. As soon as they entered the restaurant the scent of wine and food wafted into the noses of all of them.
When they saw that people came in, the waiter rushed over, "Dear guests, the second floor has no more s.p.a.ce, there are only two tables on the first floor lobby, what would you like to do?"
Hearing this, Baili Hongzhuang and the others did not care, they wanted to eat dinner, they did not care where it was.
The group of eight people sat down at the two tables, four women at one and four men at another.
Not long after, the dishes they ordered came up and with the signature dishes filled with flavour, everyone started to eat with their chopsticks.
Starting with the fish dishes, Xia Zhiqing happily smiled, "Having eaten dry food for so many days and finally getting a hot meal, I am really happy."
Seeing the extreme happiness on the face of Xia Zhiwing, Baili Hongzhuang and the others could not hold back a smile.
"You can be sure that now that we have arrived in the Qing Dynasty, the road should be bustling and we should not have to go hungry again." Baili Hongzhuang smiled lightly.
There was a large wilderness between the two countries, but now they had entered the Dynasty, things were different.
Especially since they were headed for the Qing Dynasty's imperial city, the way would be much smoother than before.
Xia Zhiqing nodded her head, "That's also good. I haven't washed for a few days, I feel uncomfortable."
While everyone were talking, several young cultivators dressed magnificently walked into the restaurant. There were both men and women and
"Give us an elegant room," a yellow-robed young man called out, his expression showing a bit of arrogance.
When the waiter saw this, he knew that they were not good people, and he could not help but feel helpless.
"Dear guests, I am sorry but the rooms are all full."
*Could be town or city, but I went with town due to it being one amongst many, not one of the big cities in the Dynasty.
When he heard the words of the waiter, the yellow-robed man's brows wrinkled and he had an unpleasant look in his eyes. "Then we will eat here."
As they said this, they looked in the lobby and found that there was no s.p.a.ce either, their expressions turning ugly.
"Dear guests, as you can see, the first floor is also full," the waiter said helplessly.
"I finally arrived at Languang Town, I want to have a good meal, I did not expect this place to be full. I don't want to change place again!"
At this time a woman in red dress amongst the people in the group spoke out. The womans appearance was very outstanding. Her skin was white and her lips were red, but the arrogance she had in her expression ruined her beauty a little.
Listening to the words of the woman in the red dress, the man in yellow robes changed his expression slightly and a smile was raised on his lips.
"Jinglin, you can be sure that even if there is no s.p.a.ce, I will make it so that there is s.p.a.ce soon!"
"Xue Haolong, my sister is not familiar with you."
At this time, the woman with purple dress suddenly made a noise and looked at the man with the yellow robe.
Xue Haoling's face was a bit ugly, this Lu Jingqi was always against him and causing trouble.
"Xue Haoling, I am hungry, handle this matter quickly, "Lu Jinglin was carefree about the entire matter.
"Sure," Xue Haoling smiled and nodded his head, turned to look at the waiter and said, "Listen well, get some tables cleared for us, otherwise I will tear this restaurant down!"
The waiter's face was ugly for a moment an he quickly said, "dear guest, I really have no way. The other guests have not eaten their food yet, I cannot drive them away."
"I don't care, I only want to see the result."
Xue Haoling looked proud. If he couldn't even handle this little thing then he was useless. He took a purse and placed it on the counter. "When you get things done, this will be yours."
Even so, the face of the waiter did not change. "Dear guest, the business of this restaurant is not like that. If there is anyone willing to leave for you that's fine but we will not chase anyone away."
The people who are eating on the first floor all look at Xue Haoling, but their eyes were filled with disgust over his overbearing manner.
"It's a bunch of hedonistic rich kids. Every time such a young master appears it is nothing good."
"Is it not just being a bit stronger than others? It is not like they are so amazing, it is really annoying."
"This kind of hedonistic rich kid is far from good, meeting him is bad luck," the people who whispered wer all ordinary people, but they had seen a lot before.
"These people are too unreasonable," Xia Zhiqing said while frowning,
Zhan Yunfeng nodded her head, "from their appearance they should be cultivatos. So many cultivators gathered together, and the travelworn appearance, they should not be from Languang Town"
Baili Hongzhuang fainty glanced at Xue Haoling and the others. Zhan Yunfeng's words made her curious and she instantly understood.
But instead of caring, she continued to eat. She had never been a noisy person. As long as they did not try to do anything to her, she did not care about them.
Seeing the waiter's embarra.s.sed expression, Xue Haoling was also feeling annoyed. "It seems that you will not understand unless you have been taught a lesson, so you know how to behave!"
As soon as the voice fell, the waiter's face was white as a sheet. He could guess that these people were cultivators, he was just an ordinary person, how could he be their opponent?
At this time a black-robed man walked out from behind the others and said to Xue Haoling, "Why say so much nonsense? Just drive away two tables of customers."
The man's face was cold an there was a bit of impatience within his eyes. Obviously he was displeased with Xue Haoling and the waiter's argument.
Hearing this, Xue Haoling nodded his head again and again. It was easy to see how much he respected this black clothed man.
Lu Jinqi had a smile on her face, "Is it okay to drive them away together?"
Next, Xue Haoling and the others walked into the restaurant's lobby on the first floor. The waiter wanted to block them, but he did not have the courage.
After all he was really offended by these people.
Xue Haoling and the others looked at the tables and saw who were eating. After the eyes landed on them, many felt uncomfortable, and looked away. They did not know who would be the unfortunate ones.
People like Baili Hongzhuang and her friends were still eating their meals, and when Xue Haoling's eyes landed on them there was a bit of threat contained within.
Lu Jingqi's eyes fell on a purple figure in the restaurant, because she found that she was wearing the exact same clothes as her.
"Sister, look at that table!" Lu Jingqi looked at Lu Jinglin and pointed at Xia Zhiqing.
Lu Jinglin's eyes swept over Xia Zhiqing and she instantly understood her sister's plan. Her sister had never liked to share anything with others, and not even someone wearing the same clothes as her.
"Xue Haoling, let us sit at this table," Lu Jinglin said. Looking at the direction that Lu Jinglin was pointing, Xue Haoling saw a table with four women.
Originally he would never have chased away four women, as he would be blamed of bullying, however he had liked Lu Jinglin for a long time. He would not refuse anything she asked of him.
Everyone within the lobby looked at Baili Hongzhuang and the other four girls with pity. They were really unlucky.
Baili Hongzhuang was seated with her back to the other people, but after seeing the sympathetic eyes of the other people she could easily guess what had happened.
"Hongzhuang they are coming towards us," Xia Zhiqing's face was filled with anger, so many people in the lobby but they went for them. Did they think they were easy to bully?
At this time Xue Haoling's voice rang from behind Baili HOngzhuang. "We need to use this table. Go away and I will pay for your food."
Xue Haoling looked poud but then he saw the woman next to Baili Hongzhuang, and his face could not help but change a few times.
So beautiful! Even more beautiful than Lu Jinglin!
Such temperament and looks, simply a G.o.ddess in every man's mind!
Lu Jinglin also noticed this, her face turning ugly. Her appearance had always been praised by others, and now there was a woman who was even more beautiful than her?
"Oh… How generous!" Xia Zhiqing stood up, "Why should we go?"
Xue Haoling and the others were drawn to this other woman's appearance. It was not comparable to the other woman, but it was also charming.
"I told you to go, so you have to go!" Lu Jingqi raised her eyebrows and her expression was filled with arrogance. "If you don't leave, don't blame us for driving you out."
"Bragging!" Zhan Yunfeng also stood up an looked at Lu Jingqi with a glare, "You are not the only cultivator here!"
Next Zhan Yunfeng directly took out her sword and put it on the table.
At the same time Gong Shaoqing and the others from the table next to them also stood up. They did not like to get into trouble, but they would not be bullied!
When they saw Gong Shaoqing and the others also stood up, they were stunned. They thought the four girls at the table were alone, they had not expected the four men next to them to be together with them.
As a result, it would become messy.
Li Jingqi's face was ugly and she had not expected to pick such a large group of people.
"I'll give you three seconds, scram," The voice of Baili Hongzhuang was cold. This kind of person who was so arrogant, she did not need to give them even the slightest bit of face.
With the words of Baili Hongzhuang, Xue Haoling's face instantly turned ugly.
Although they had eight people, it would just be a little troublesome. Never would they have expected that this white dressed woman with her back to them would talk about them leaving.
"Such courage!" Lu Jingqi snorted, "who are you to tell us to scram?"
"We were eating here, and you ran to us for no reason, telling us to leave. That is such bad upbringing. I told you to scram, it is already giving you enough face." Baili hongzhuang's voice was completely cold, not having the slightest temperature.
This person is not even turning around, even if it was to an ordinary person, this would be severe humiliation!
This was an insult!
When the words came out, Lu Jingqi and the others faces turned colourful. This woman had a sharp tongue, they could not refute her at all.
The other guests, after hearing Baili Hongzhuang all felt that she was correct.
All the people who were nervous before were now watching a great show.
Xue Haoling had picked a hard bone. They just had to look at the white-clothed girl to know that they were equally important.
Li Jingqi sneered in anger, "If you have the ability to face us, then do so. Are you so ugly that you don't dare turn around?"
Li Jingqi had always been arrogant, so what if what she said made no sense?
She was an unreasonable person, but strength was the truth.
However, after earing Lu Jingqi's words, Xia Zhiqing could not help but laugh. This Lu Jingqi is really an idiot!
Baili Hongzhuang is the most attractive of them all, now she said that she was too ugly an afraid to meet people?
Not only Xia Zhiqing, but also Dongfang Yu and the others at the side could not help but laugh. If they said she was ugly, then no one would dare to say that they were beautiful.
Next, under the gaze of Lu Jingqi and the others, Baili Hongzhuang slowly turned around.
The beautiful face which could make cities crumble held a mocking smile, "what did you just say?"
Xue Haoling took a deep breath of air when he looked at Baili Hongzhuang in front of him. He thought that Liu Qingyue was already the best amongst women, but then when he saw this white-dressed woman he realized that there was one even more outstanding.
