Chapter 385: Chapter 386 Who is the Genius? Who is the Trash? (Part 2)
“Hmph!”
A cold snort suddenly broke the silence.
This familiar voice made Lin Ruoying’s face change drastically as she looked at the handsome young man in the silver robe in horror.
She could never forget, the nightmare the young man had brought upon her…
Zi Qianjing glanced at Lin Ruoying’s pale complexion, his lips curling into sneer as he mockingly said, “Have you not seen that others dismiss you? Yet you still shamelessly address him so affectionately. Lin Ruoying, I think you should change your name to Lin Thickface, as the name Lin Ruoying does not suit you!”
If it were in the past, how could Lin Ruoying have tolerated such humiliation?
But now, she didn’t say a word.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to respond to Zi Qianjing, but rather, she was frightened. She harbored a deep-seated fear of the young man and couldn’t even utter a single word…
“Ahem, now that both parties are present, let’s begin the competition,” Shen Ran coughed dryly a couple of times, his eyes twinkling as he spoke lightly.
Wu Yi cast him a cold glance, “Shen Ran, this is not just a fight between them, but also a battle between the Alchemy Hall and the Martial Hall within the Academy! Therefore, in this battle, Ruoying must win.”
Shen Ran curled his lip and said with a feigned smile, “Who wins and who loses is not yet certain, Wu Yi, be careful with your words lest they become a joke later.”
Certainly, Lin Ruoying is a talent, but she could very well be the reincarnation of Moon Venerate. There’s no way she could lose to someone like Lin Ruoying…
On the martial arts field, two figures stood opposite each other, their black hair intertwining in the wind.
Lin Ruoying stared at the woman in front of her, no longer concealing her emotions, all her hatred and anger bursting forth, a cold smile playing around her lips.
“Mu Ruyue, just because you can perform alchemy doesn’t mean anything. Although alchemists wield great influence in this world, strength is what matters most to me. I will make you understand who the real talent is and who the real waste is!”
Who the real talent is and who the real waste is—
Hearing these words, Mu Ruyue raised her icy eyes, a trace of a shallow smile hinting at the cold intent within her eyes: “I was thinking the same!”
Genius and waste, often differentiated in a single night!
A flash of red light crossed Lin Ruoying’s eyes as she drew her longsword with a swish. The fierce gleam of her sword swept across the sky and viciously chopped towards Mu Ruyue, who quickly retreated backward, narrowly dodging the attack.
“Boom!”
The sword’s light hit the ground, flipping wooden boards all over the martial arts field, immediately kicking up dust everywhere. Amidst the dust, Mu Ruyue still stood unblemished, her expression indifferent and haughty.
Yet her arrogance was hidden deep within her bones, not easily displayed…
Mu Ruyue slightly lifted her palm, and instantly a longsword appeared within her grasp. She gently pulled out the sword as a red light reflected from within the blade…
“Infernal Ember First Form!”
A red sword light flashed by, shooting towards Lin Ruoying’s chest like lightning.
Lin Ruoying scoffed disdainfully, swinging her arm to curve the sword in mid-air. With a loud bang, two waves of Sword Qi collided in the air, forcing Mu Ruyue to abruptly retreat several steps.
“Intermediate Innate! The woman who seduced Senior Brother Wuchen is actually Intermediate Innate!”
“She’s only about nineteen years old, an Intermediate Innate so young certainly has the credentials to be proud. Unfortunately, Senior Sister Ruoying is Advanced Innate, and the difference between them is not just slight.”
