Chapter 506: Forging a Legend
When Li Luo appeared before the tower of the Holy Profound Star Academy, he was greeted by countless cheers.
Everyone from the One-Star Court looked at Li Luo with fiery eyes; the latter was now the undisputed strongest One-Star Court student of the Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou, a title with immense weight, far more important than being the number one within the academy.
This would undoubtedly raise the profile of their current One-Star Court cohort, after all, throughout the academy's history, the number of times the title of strongest One-Star Court student in the Sacred Cup War had been won was truly few and far between.
This was enough to be engraved on the Honor Stele of the Holy Profound Star Academy.
Henceforth, whenever anyone mentioned the One-Star Court of the Holy Profound Star Academy, they would inevitably recall that only their cohort possessed the highest quality.
Students from other courts also wore expressions of joy and sighs; even those from the High-Star Courts looked at Li Luo with much more solemnity, with even a hint of respect in their gaze.
Because Li Luo's performance in the final battle deserved that respect.
Perhaps Li Luo currently lagged behind them in strength due to his cultivation time, but in time, Li Luo would inevitably become one of the strongest students of the Holy Profound Star Academy, and who knows, he might even create some records.
After all, for a student who had won the strongest title, no one dared to look down on him even slightly.
"Li Luo, you did very well; it was not in vain that I worked hard to send you to the Dragon Blood Fire Domain; you indeed did not disappoint me." Seeing Yu Lang looked at Li Luo with gratification, his tone as if looking at a son who had brought glory to the family.
"Get lost."
Li Luo rolled his eyes; this guy actually dared to take advantage of him.
"Li Luo, good job!"
Bai Bai Doudou gave Li Luo a thumbs-up; the short-haired girl had a domineering personality, but facing Li Luo who had achieved such a proud victory, her eyes were also full of admiration.
"Li Luo, you are very strong; meeting someone like you at the Holy Profound Star Academy is truly my luck, but rest assured, in the future I will take you as my goal, cultivate crazily, and always be ready to surpass you." Qin Qin Zhulu looked at Li Luo with extremely fiery and scorching eyes, that gaze so intense it was even more so than the girls with sparkling eyes nearby.
Qin Qin Zhulu had a proud personality and never submitted to anyone, but this time Li Luo's performance had undoubtedly completely conquered him.
However, regarding his heavy "love," Li Luo could only return a somewhat stiff smile; being admired by this battle maniac was actually not a comfortable thing; one could imagine that in the future he would probably be constantly entangled by him.
Wang Wang Hejiu and Duze Duze Beixuan had somewhat complex expressions; their relationship with Li Luo was not that good, and their cooperation this time was entirely due to the high-pressure threat from Vice Dean Suxin; on one hand they did not want to see Li Luo shine so brightly, and on the other hand they were happy that Li Luo won the championship, so their mood at this moment was a mix of five flavors, extremely complex.
"Captain, congratulations on about to become famous throughout the Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou." Bai Bai Mengmeng smiled playfully; after this battle, Li Luo's name would surely spread across the Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou, after all, everyone knew exactly how heavy the weight of the title of strongest student in the Sacred Cup War was.
Lu Qing'er stood gracefully to the side, her gaze like rippling water watching Li Luo, her soft red lips glistening with a hint of a smile; at this moment, Li Luo reminded her of when she first entered the South Wind Academy back then; that Li Luo had not yet exposed his Empty Image, and he became the most dazzling person at the South Wind Academy relying on his own Image Art talent.
That young man back then was so spirited and confident.
And several years later, having experienced much tempering, he had become even more dazzling than before, and also more reserved.
She had said before that Li Luo would not be inferior to anyone, even... Jiang Jiang Qinge.
"Hey."
While Lu Qing'er was slightly distracted, Li Luo reached out and waved his hand in front of her.
Lu Qing'er came back to her senses and smiled: "Congratulations."
Li Luo smiled and said: "It was also thanks to your 'Ice Nightmare Armor', otherwise I would likely have been eliminated inside the Dragon Blood Fire Domain."
If it were not for Lu Qing'er's 'Ice Nightmare Armor' buying him more time, even if he could eventually reach the Dragon Bone Island, it would likely have become even more dangerous; of course, most importantly, he might not have had enough time to collect the Dragon Blood Fire, and without the Dragon Blood Fire, he would not have been able to obtain that Dragon Pearl containing the Dragon Essence.
Without this Dragon Pearl providing an amplification of Image Power at the critical moment, allowing him to briefly step into the fourth transformation of the Image Transformation Stage, to defeat Jing Jing Taixu, he might have needed to unleash his final trump card, the Three-Tailed Celestial Wolf.
So being able to achieve the final victory this time, Lu Qing'er's assistance with her Image Art was truly crucial.
Lu Qing'er pressed her lips in a shallow smile, her heart rippling with joy and excitement; being able to help Li Luo, just that alone made her very satisfied.
After Li Luo spoke with them for a while, he saw Vice Dean Suxin waving at him, so he immediately hurried over quickly.
"Vice Dean Suxin, I have not failed in my mission." Li Luo said with a fist-palm salute.
On Vice Dean Suxin's beautiful face was an uncontrollable smile; her voice, usually already gentle, was even more like a spring breeze at this moment; she even couldn't help but reach out and pat Li Luo's head.
However, she quickly realized this was not quite appropriate, so she hurriedly withdrew her hand and said softly to Li Luo: "Li Luo, your performance this time was very good; you are the pride and hero of our Holy Profound Star Academy."
"As a member of the Holy Profound Star Academy, striving for honor for the academy is also my duty and responsibility." Li Luo's mouth was very sweet, making Vice Dean Suxin's heart bloom with joy.
"The academy will remember your contribution to the academy, and will not treat you poorly in the future." Vice Dean Suxin said with deep feeling.
Li Luo immediately smiled and agreed.
Then he felt a gaze watching him from behind Vice Dean Suxin; lifting his line of sight, he saw that face of unparalleled beauty, which was indeed the Eldest Princess.
However, this time the Eldest Princess's gaze towards him held a bit more shock and curiosity than before.
Obviously, she was also quite shaken by Li Luo's victory.
Li Luo said with some surprise: "Eldest Princess, have you finished the competition?"
Once the words were out, it felt wrong; after all, the Four-Star Court competition had not ended, and the Eldest Princess appeared here... did that not mean she had been eliminated?
This made him slightly shaken; the Four-Star Court inter-court competition was indeed hiding dragons and tigers, truly the top-level fighting in the Holy Academy; even someone with the Eldest Princess's strength was eliminated first?
The Eldest Princess did not mind Li Luo's slip of the tongue, appearing dignified and generous, while regretfully saying: "It can't be helped; over at the Four-Star Court, I cannot reach the level of excellence that you, Li Luo, achieved over at the One-Star Court, so being eliminated is unavoidable."
Then she showed Li Luo a gentle and graceful smile: "Additionally, congratulations; from today on you will become famous throughout the Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou; by then the entire Great Xia will know that the young master of the Luo An Manor possesses abilities not inferior to his father."
"The words 'a tiger father has a dog son' will likely never be spoken again."
Her gaze watched Li Luo with interest; after this battle, the various factions within the Great Xia country would probably truly begin to take this Empty Image young master, who they had previously ignored, seriously, because the talent and potential Li Luo displayed, in a sense, seemed not to be inferior to Jiang Jiang Qinge by much.
In the past, it was said that the Luo An Manor had a young phoenix, and now, this hidden dragon that was previously concealed deep within, was about to show its sharpness.
Li Luo was quite indifferent to this: "I do not care about the words of others."
Vice Dean Suxin and the Eldest Princess both nodded slightly; Li Luo's temperament and state of mind might also be one of the important factors for him standing out in the One-Star Court; otherwise, although dual Images were rare, they were not unique to just one family; didn't you see that Lu Ming, who possessed dual Images, was also eliminated?
"However, Li Luo, since you won the title of strongest One-Star Court student this time, it seems you are about to leave behind a legend that will be hard to break." The Eldest Princess suddenly smiled charmingly and said.
"What legend?" Li Luo was somewhat confused; although the title of strongest student was rare, the Sacred Cup War was held once every four years; the word 'legend' probably wasn't qualified yet.
The Eldest Princess smiled mockingly.
"Indeed, one person winning the strongest title is not enough..."
"But if a pair of fiancés win it simultaneously, then it would truly be a legend that has never appeared until now."
When her words fell, countless sighs suddenly erupted within this Sacred Cup space, and on the side of the Holy Profound Star Academy, cheers rang out once again.
Li Luo sensed something and turned his head, seeing a streak of light shoot out from the energy vortex.
Finally landing outside the energy pool, that graceful, tall, and absolutely beautiful figure, who could it be other than Jiang Jiang Qinge?
