Chapter 1185: When your elders arrive, they must respectfully call out

Because of Li Yao's existence,

Jingyu Martial Academy suddenly broke away from the four major martial academies,

effortlessly suppressing the others by a head.

These arrogant practitioners from noble families naturally couldn't stand it.

They dared not voice any criticism toward Li Yao,

but the other Jingyu students became their targets for venting.

The SS-tier professional Hunter, Hong Ling,

was the absolute pillar of Jingyu besides Li Yao.

As long as they could suppress her,

and then spend some money to buy public opinion on the Star Net,

Jingyu Martial Academy would not be able to sit securely in the position of the strongest martial academy!

"Chief General, this matter is indeed that Hong Ling's fault; let her come over."

The surrounding practitioners chimed in, a cold sneer hanging on their lips.

As the host of this year's Freshman Competition,

Li Yao represented Jingyu behind the scenes.

Facing this top genius who suppressed all other prodigies,

everyone wore an expression of watching a good show,

wanting to see him get snubbed in front of Zuo Shuning.

"That's right, regardless of the process, hurting people is wrong. If she really doesn't want to accept Miss Zuo's challenge, a public apology will do."

"The truth of the matter hasn't even been investigated clearly, yet you all want Jingyu's Hong Ling to apologize—isn't that a bit too arbitrary?"

Ge Shuqing, standing to the side, spoke slowly.

She had not forgotten the purpose of organizing this banquet.

Others could afford to offend Li Yao, but she could not.

But the next second,

Zuo Shuning glanced at Ge Shuqing and said indifferently, "A student from the Magic City Martial Academy was injured; that is the truth!"

Not only that,

the surrounding practitioners all looked at Ge Shuqing with ill intent, telling her not to meddle in other people's business.

One or two, Ge Shuqing would not fear,

but so many people—

they were all noble children she had personally invited, or top geniuses from major martial academies.

It seemed these guys had already reached a consensus:

they were determined to take a knife to the Jingyu students!

She also had an impression of Hong Ling.

If she really came here, this woman Zuo Shuning would likely not show mercy.

Never mind participating in the Freshman Competition; sending her straight to the hospital was possible!

"Heh."

A light chuckle came.

Everyone turned their gaze toward Li Yao.

Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Li Yao was unconcerned.

No wonder the old principal insisted I come over!

Looking at Zuo Shuning, he said nonchalantly:

"I'll give you a sentence as well."

"Have those few people from the Magic City Martial Academy come over, or apologize publicly, and I can let bygones be bygones."

Once these words were out,

many people present were dumbfounded.

They thought he would try to smooth things over for the sake of so many people's faces,

but he ended up directly demanding people from Zuo Shuning?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Yao walked slowly toward the two practitioners who had come to report the news.

"Go on, call over those practitioners from the Magic City Martial Academy who were beaten; I'll wait for you here."

That practitioner couldn't withstand Li Yao's aura and hurriedly turned his head, looking at Zuo Shuning as if begging.

"Li Yao, I call you Chief General, don't go too far!"

"Hum—"

The air vibrated.

Runes mixed with dark golden brilliance emerged, circulating around her.

Like a peerless fierce beast, the aura surged out!

Her evening gown transformed into a set of golden armor in an instant, and holding a thin sword, she stared at Li Yao.

Many people felt this aura and their faces changed drastically, their bodies involuntarily retreating a few steps.

The perfectly fine banquet hall was once again ruined into a mess.

"So what?" Li Yao said flatly.

He hadn't released even a sliver of his aura, yet these four simple words felt like a great mountain, crushing Zuo Shuning's aura until it withered.

In his eyes,

Zuo Shuning's aura was like an infant learning to walk—

weak to a pathetic degree!

"I'll say it one last time: either bring those people here, or apologize publicly." ===== CHAPTER 1187 =====
