Chapter 311: The Bitter Xu Ping! Hearing Ling Shuang's Advice!

~7 min read 1,295 words

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!......

Xu Jingming's tall figure, gripping his long spear, weaved through the team formed by Wang Qi and the others.

One-on-one, no one was his match, let alone these people who had already been seriously injured under the bombardment of Lei Shen Zhi!

Even Han Shan's SS-grade combat technique 'Life Share' had already been interrupted by the intense pain.

Facing this group, Xu Jingming was like a fierce tiger crashing into a flock of sheep, slaughtering in all directions!

Every bombardment of Xu Jingming's long spear was like swatting a sandbag.

Each strike could blast a contestant, utterly unable to resist, a full seven or eight meters away!!

He controlled his strength perfectly—not lethal, yet making it impossible for the opponent to activate their safety orb.

Only after the opponent conceded would he charge toward the next target.

It wasn't that no one tried to flee, but under Xu Jingming's extreme speed, escape was impossible!

And so, this entire stretch of scorched grassland blasted open by Lei Shen Zhi became Xu Jingming's personal stage......

"Holy crap! One Lei Shen Zhi crushed both schools! Is Lei Di really this terrifying?!"

"In the previous singles match, Lei Di still had to struggle a bit before taking down Wang Qi, but now it's just a one-sided crush!"

"Exactly, that support-type ability user from Mo Da didn't even get to exert any force......"

"......"

In the stadium, the audience was undoubtedly showing immense shock at Xu Jingming's god-like performance.

They had originally thought that even if Xu Jingming reached Fourth Order, facing these eleven top contestants from Jingda and Jin Da—

he would at least need some time to secure victory.

But unexpectedly, Wang Qi and the others collapsed at the first touch!

It had completely turned into a one-sided crush!

"Not letting them go even when they're seriously injured—Lei Di is getting revenge."

At the next scene on the holographic projection, quite a few audience members clicked their tongues in wonder.

"Heh, Jingda and Jin Da joined forces to eliminate Mo Da, so Lei Di choosing revenge is perfectly normal."

People always tend to sympathize with the weaker side, and Mo Da's weakness wasn't inherent to themselves—

it was caused by the two schools joining forces!

Thus, most people didn't mind Xu Jingming's performance at all.

Nor did they see it as the strong bullying the weak; instead, they felt thoroughly satisfied.

Especially the fans of Mo Da.

The pent-up frustration from a few days ago, when Mo Da's contestants were jointly eliminated by Wang Qi and the others—

was swept away in this moment, leaving them feeling refreshed all over!

"Jingda and Jin Da joined forces and still lost! This Xu Jingming is simply monstrous!"

"Exactly, a Fourth Order Lower at 19 years old—that promotion speed is truly terrifying."

"Give it a few more years and he'll probably become a Seventh Order Grandmaster."

"......"

In the inner audience area, many instructors also let out exclamations of amazement.

With two top universities joining forces, Mo Da should have had no resistance whatsoever.

Yet Xu Jingming alone had forcibly turned the tables!

And his SS-grade ability was already an ultra-rare talent unseen in Great Xia for decades.

Combined with this monstrous promotion speed, they couldn't imagine who could possibly stop his rise......

"Jingda... is going to lose......"

On the Jingda spectator side, Xu Ping's old face was filled with complicated emotions.

Despite all his scheming, even spending a fortune to ally with Jin Da—

he still couldn't suppress Mo Da.

"Principal Ling, a bet is a bet.

The SS-grade resources and S-grade resources I'll give you shortly, but I have a question I'd like to consult on."

After taking a deep breath, Xu Ping turned to look at Hearing Ling Shuang, who was seated not far to his right.

"Principal Xu, just ask whatever you want to ask."

Hearing Ling Shuang, having won the bet again, was clearly in a great mood—her cool voice carried a hint of lightness.

Even for her, an Eighth Order Zhongweida Sect Grandmaster, a single SS-grade resource wasn't that easy to obtain.

Yet in just one National University League, she'd gotten two in a row.

The speed of acquiring resources was simply too fast.

"Principal Ling, before you agreed to bet with me, did you already know Xu Jingming was about to break through to Fourth Order?"

Xu Ping's eyes, faintly carrying a glimmer of hope, looked over.

Ability users can often sense the existence of a bottleneck in advance.

It's even possible that Xu Jingming had already attempted a breakthrough and merely failed.

If Hearing Ling Shuang had known beforehand that Xu Jingming had a chance of breaking through to Fourth Order, then losing his resources would be a defeat he could accept wholeheartedly.

But if even Hearing Ling Shuang didn't know Xu Jingming's situation, then losing these resources would be a terrible loss—purely a matter of luck.

"I don't actually know the specifics of Xu Jingming's situation. I just felt he would win, so I placed my bet." Hearing Ling Shuang shook her head and replied.

This was a woman's intuition, and facts had proven her intuition hadn't failed her.

"This......"

Having gotten an answer, Xu Ping no longer knew what to say.

Just going by gut feeling, and daring to stake an SS-grade resource and an S-grade resource?

These young people nowadays really can't be read!

What's even more deadly is—she actually won!

"Looks like I'm really getting old. Once my rotation at Jingda for this school year is done, I really have to give myself a proper vacation."

Xu Ping shook his head, his face full of bitterness.

The study tour, the National Collegiate League—two consecutive tournament losses.

His prestige among Jingda's students would undoubtedly take a sharp dive......

Meanwhile, beside Hearing Ling Shuang, azure lightning flickered, and Su Qingli's tall figure slowly appeared.

A crisp voice, like a lark's, rang out:

"Not even knowing the intel and still daring to make a bet—you really have some confidence in this little fellow."

Gazing at that tall, slender figure on the holographic projection, a faint glimmer of admiration also stirred in Su Qingli's eyes.

She was already impatient for such a prodigy to report to Lei Ting Wu Guan.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but softly instruct:

"Hearing Ling Shuang, I'm preparing to head back to the global headquarters side. Remember to seriously consider this proposal of returning to the martial hall.

Also, regarding Xu Jingming's side, please trouble you to give him more attention.

I dare guarantee that Lei Ting Wu Guan will surely be the best destination for him."

As the hall master of Lei Ting Wu Guan, Su Qingli wasn't idle with nothing to do every day.

On the contrary, she had a great many matters to handle.

Being able to stay at the tournament site for seven or eight days was already not easy.

"Understood."

Hearing Ling Shuang gave a slight nod, appearing to show none of the deference an ordinary eighth-rank Grandmaster would show a ninth-rank Martial Saint.

Yet Su Qingli showed not the slightest displeasure; on the contrary, there was even a faint smile on her pretty face.

She and Hearing Ling Shuang had always been close friends. Although they hadn't met too many times in the past three years, their relationship hadn't cooled in the slightest.

Naturally, she also understood that Hearing Ling Shuang's current attitude precisely showed she had taken her close friend's words to heart.

'Finally not wasted, these past few days finding her to chat whenever I had nothing to do—Xu Jingming shouldn't be able to escape now......'

Thinking this in her heart, lightning flickered, and Su Qingli's slender, tall figure also slowly vanished from the spectator stands.
