Chapter 493

But her profession,

her small skills were not strong.

Either she summoned magic puppets, or she used various ultimate moves.

Once used,

they definitely wouldn't be available for the Newcomer Competition.

By then, if Some Jingyu Martial Academy didn't get good results,

others would think

that apart from Li Yao, Some Jingyu Martial Academy didn't have a single professional worth mentioning.

Li Yao was strong because of himself.

Some Jingyu's teaching quality wasn't good either!

Such words would definitely spring up like bamboo shoots after rain!

The facts were exactly as Qin Qin Xuejun thought.

Zuo Zuo Shuning was in a bit of a dilemma.

Seeing Li Yao's lighthearted appearance, she suddenly got angry and shouted:

"And then?"

"Of course, let that Some Jingyu professional named Hong Ling come out and apologize publicly!"

"If the Chief General feels it's inappropriate,"

"then call her over. Isn't she fond of bullying the weak? I, Zuo Zuo Shuning, will challenge her personally!"

With Li Yao here now,

it was probably impossible to drag Qin Qin Xuejun into the water.

But dealing with a Hong Ling,

she believed there would be no problem at all.

No matter how wild or arrogant Li Yao was,

he couldn't possibly go against the Zuo family for the sake of an unrelated person!

Because of Li Yao's existence,

Some Jingyu Martial Academy had suddenly detached itself from the four major martial academies

and stood a head above the other martial academies for no reason.

These arrogant noble professionals naturally couldn't stand it.

They didn't dare to criticize Li Yao,

but other Some Jingyu students became their targets to vent their anger.

SS-level professional Hunter, Hong Ling,

was definitely a major pillar for Some Jingyu besides Li Yao.

As long as she could be suppressed,

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

Some Jingyu Martial Academy wouldn't be able to hold onto its position as the strongest martial academy!

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

The surrounding professionals echoed, with cold sneers on their lips.

Li Yao, as the host of this year's Newcomer Competition,

represented Some Jingyu behind him.

Facing this top-tier genius who suppressed all other geniuses,

everyone was in a state of watching a good show,

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

"That's right, regardless of the process, hurting people is wrong. If you really don't want to accept Miss Zuo's challenge, letting her apologize publicly is fine too."

"The truth of the matter hasn't even been investigated clearly, and you all are asking Some Jingyu's Hong Ling to apologize. Isn't that a bit too arbitrary?"

Ge Ge Shuqing, who was on the side, spoke slowly.

She hadn't forgotten the purpose of organizing this banquet.

Others could offend Li Yao, but she couldn't.

But the next second,

Zuo Zuo Shuning glanced at Ge Ge Shuqing and said indifferently: "Magic City Martial Academy students were injured; that is the truth!"

Not only that,

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

One or two, Ge Ge Shuqing didn't fear.

But so many people,

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

It seemed that these guys had reached a consensus

that they must take a knife to the Some Jingyu students!

She also had an impression of Hong Ling.

If she really came here, she was afraid that this woman Zuo Zuo Shuning wouldn't show any mercy.

Forget about participating in the Newcomer Competition; she might be sent straight to the hospital!

"Heh."

A light laugh came.

Everyone turned their gaze to Li Yao.

Feeling everyone's gaze, Li Yao didn't care.

No wonder the old principal insisted on me coming here!

Looking at Zuo Zuo Shuning, he said nonchalantly:

"I'll give you a piece of advice as well."

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

As soon as these words were spoken,

many people present were dumbfounded.

They thought he would try to smooth things over for the sake of so many people.

But he directly asked Zuo Zuo Shuning for people?

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

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

That professional couldn't withstand Li Yao's aura and hurriedly turned his head, looking at Zuo Zuo Shuning pleadingly.

"Li Yao, I called you Chief General out of respect, don't go too far!"

*Hum.

The air vibrated.

Runes mixed with dark gold radiance appeared and flowed around her.

Like a peerless fierce beast, an aura burst forth!

The evening gown she was wearing instantly transformed into a set of golden armor, and she held a thin sword, staring at Li Yao.

Many people, just feeling this aura, had their expressions change drastically, and their bodies involuntarily retreated a few steps.

The perfectly fine banquet hall was ruined again.

"So what?" Li Yao said plainly.

He didn't release even a shred of aura, but with just those four plain words, it was as if a great mountain had pressed Zuo Zuo Shuning's aura until it withered.

In his eyes,

Zuo Zuo Shuning's aura was like a baby learning to walk.

It was weak to the point of being a mess!

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

"Otherwise, don't even think about participating in the Newcomer Competition, Magic City Martial Academy."

As soon as this was said,

everyone was stunned in place.

One person, threatening the entire Magic City Martial Academy?

Zuo Zuo Shuning's face was ugly to the extreme.

But no matter how she released her aura,

it was as if her lifeline had been pinched, and she couldn't release it.

If it were a clash of auras,

she would have accepted losing to Li Yao.

But right now, she hadn't even seen Li Yao's aura!

In her daily life, she considered herself a genius.

But facing Li Yao,

it was like a child facing an adult; he had destroyed all her confidence in one go!

"The luncheon is over, and I've said what I needed to say."

"Miss Ge, thank you for the hospitality," Li Yao said, then stepped toward the door.

No one dared to speak up to dissuade him.

Until Li Yao left,

that invisible aura finally disappeared.

Everyone finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Li Yao is joking, right?" a Magic City Martial Academy noble disciple said.

"It should be. Even if he is powerful, he is just a student of Some Jingyu Martial Academy. Why wouldn't he let us participate in the Newcomer Competition!"

"Just a student?" Ge Ge Shuqing sneered. "Have you forgotten that before entering the border trial, he was specially appointed as a Chief Major General by the Federation?"

"With the merits from the border trial, I'd believe it if you told me he was a Lieutenant General now!"

Facing this group of people, Ge Ge Shuqing didn't want to offend them, but she didn't need to deliberately curry favor either.

"A Dragon Kingdom Lieutenant General is someone who can control military power and command wars!"

"Even if your elders saw Li Yao, they would have to respectfully call him Chief General."

Little master, there is more to this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading, the following is even more exciting!

Ge Ge Shuqing glanced at Zuo Zuo Shuning, who still looked a bit dazed.

They were sitting next to each other at the luncheon,

so it was clear their relationship was good.

But now, Ge Ge Shuqing couldn't wait to distance herself from the other party.

"Not only calling him by his name, but also daring to release your aura at the Chief General."

"Forget it, I say you are useless. People from the Zuo family will naturally teach you what humility is!"

She took the lead in organizing this banquet,

with the intention of connecting with Li Yao and creating some business cooperation between the Ge family and Li Yao.

These guys used this opportunity to target Some Jingyu students?

It would be one thing if Li Yao wasn't here, but he was here and they still dared to do this?

They really must be tired of living!

Ge Ge Shuqing was in a bad mood at this moment,

and her words didn't leave any room for face.

After these words,

Zuo Zuo Shuning was left standing there in a daze.

She finally realized what she had done just now.

The Yun family behind Yun Yun Hejiang was about the same as the Zuo family,

but he had been beaten half to death by Li Yao.

The luncheon lasted for more than an hour, and there was still no news.

A serving Lieutenant General of the Dragon Kingdom—

even for the Zuo family, only those uncles and aunts at the pinnacle of family power had this status!

She had actually treated him as a peer, a slightly more powerful genius?

How did she dare?

A stormy sea surged in Zuo Zuo Shuning's heart.

Not just her,

the professionals present were all too scared to speak.

They all began to think about whether they had offended Li Yao at the luncheon just now.

The Magic City Martial Academy students even spoke up directly:

"Miss Zuo, this won't do!"

"You caused this trouble; you can't let us all be unable to participate in the Newcomer Competition, right?"

"This year, with the border trial beforehand, the rewards for the Newcomer Competition are much higher than in previous years. You must find a way!"

"That's right, aren't they just a few servants? Just let them go out and apologize publicly!"

"What are you saying? Is it a problem of those few pieces of trash now? Miss Zuo released her aura at a Dragon Kingdom General; the Chief General could have executed her on the spot! She must apologize in person!"

"..."

Everyone spoke one after another, distancing themselves clearly.

Zuo Zuo Shuning's eyes were hollow.

She stood there like a statue, not moving at all.

Seven parts fear, three parts anger.

The fear came from Li Yao,

the anger came from these guys who were kicking her while she was down!

Seeing this scene, Ge Ge Shuqing didn't stay long.

She walked out the door and chased after the direction Li Yao had left.
