Chapter 586: Exit the Stage

The Holy Grail War concluded perfectly in the end.

Next came the time for the various academies to exit the stage.

The noisy plaza was divided into sections by the students of each academy, gathering together in their own groups to chat.

Li Luo, Jiang Jiang Qinge, the Princess, and the others also returned to the gathering spot of the students from Saintly Xuanxing Academy, and what greeted them was naturally countless excited cheers. Judging by their posture, if not for the usual authority and presence of the Princess and Jiang Jiang Qinge within the academy, they would have probably tossed the three of them into the air in celebration by now.

"Li Luo, how does it feel to become famous throughout the Eastern Region's Outer Shenzhou?" Lv Qing'er asked mischievatically as she looked at the returning youth. His handsome face shone like a blazing sun, and his grey-white hair gave him a unique charm. Along the way here, Lv Qing'er had lost count of how many academy girls she had seen secretly sizing him up.

Li Luo smiled helplessly at the bright-eyed, beautiful and charming girl before him, saying, "Actually, I'm just a soy-sauce mixer who tagged along. The fact that we won the championship is mainly thanks to Her Highness and Sister Jiang Qinge."

Lv Qing'er's red lips curved slightly as she said, "Normally speaking, that might indeed be the case, but I don't know why, I feel like the real truth might not be like that."

Li Luo widened his eyes and said, "Why?"

Lv Qing'er smiled radiantly and said, "How can there be so many 'whys'? It's just a girl's intuition."

Li Luo immediately felt a bit weary. I've been working so hard to hide it, so why can these people directly guess the core truth? Has my halo already become unreasonably strong to this extent?

"Li Luo, your luck is indeed not bad. With Her Highness and Senior Sister Jiang as your two big thighs, you managed to mix your way to a good result this time." However, just at this moment, a voice full of sourness popped up from the side. Li Luo looked over, and as expected, it was that unlucky bastard Duze Duze Beixuan.

But facing Duze Duze Beixuan's sour questioning, Li Luo was not only unangered, he instead looked at him with an approving gaze.

As expected, there are still normal people.

And when Li Luo's approving gaze fell into Duze Duze Beixuan's eyes, it made the latter think it was mockery. Immediately, veins pulsed on his forehead as he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't get too cocky..."

"Your name is on the rankings, famous throughout the Eastern Region. If you don't show off now, then when?" A voice suddenly rang out faintly from the side.

One sentence left Duze Duze Beixuan so choked up his chest felt stuffy. He looked over angrily and saw a figure had appeared beside him at some unknown time. That appearance was none other than Student Xin Fu from Li Luo's team, the one with very low presence. This guy was as elusive as a ghost.

"Haha, Student Xin Fu, you're still as sharp as ever. Where did you go? I didn't see you at all just now." Li Luo laughed.

Student Xin Fu glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "I've been waving at you this whole time."

Li Luo was stunned, blinked, and said, "Have I?"

Then he gave a dry laugh and said, "Haha, your stealth is getting more and more perfect. Standing right in front of me and I didn't even notice."

Student Xin Fu said nothing more, just silently noted it down in his heart.

"Captain, does our Justice Squad also get to ride the coattails of one person's success?" Behind Student Xin Fu, a pure and clean little face popped out with a radiant smile, sneaking a grin at Li Luo. Those bright, lively, beautiful eyes were full of worship..

Such a pure and pretty little face that could heal people's hearts — who else could it be but Bai Bai Mengmeng?

Being looked at like this, even Li Luo, with his extraordinary mental fortitude, couldn't help but feel a bit vain.

"Li Luo, our Luolang combo has made a huge splash this time. The future looks promising!" However, at this moment, a familiar, shamelessly bold voice came over, and then a hand landed on Li Luo's shoulder, patting him hard, while simultaneously blocking Li Luo's gaze that had been fixed on Bai Bai Mengmeng.

Li Luo glanced at Seeing Yu Lang who was blocking his view and said casually, "I think highly of your potential too, so I plan to take this opportunity of winning the championship and Li Xia Le Gong for the academy, to beg Vice Dean Suxin to send you to the Dark Cave to cultivate for half a year, to fully develop your potential. When that time comes, our dual sword combo will surely shake the entire Great Xia."

"Holy shit, you're ruthless!"

Seeing Yu Lang's face stiffened, and the hand resting on Li Luo's shoulder quickly withdrew. Then, sensibly, he sidestepped and let Bai Bai Mengmeng back into view.

However, Bai Bai Mengmeng didn't pay attention to the brief clash between the two, but instead stepped forward quickly and began chatting with Li Luo with a sweet smile.

Seeing Yu Lang watched, and closed his eyes in agony: "Oh, my Meng..."

"Your what?" Suddenly, a cold and sharp voice sounded from beside him.

Seeing Yu Lang felt a chill in his heart, opened his eyes, forced a smile, and quickly explained, "I meant my dream was shattered by Li Luo!"

Bai Bai Doudou snorted coldly and said, "But I think Li Luo's suggestion just now is pretty good. The Dark Cave is a place that truly tempers people. If you can really stay there for half a year, it will definitely be of great benefit to you. Looking at you, Yu Lang, you're only a Sixth-Grade Wind Phase. If you don't put in more effort, your future achievements will be hard to predict. And whether it's your background or your talent, neither compares to Li Luo's. If things continue like this, you'll only be left further and further behind by him. Although Li Luo might not look down on you because of it, I'm afraid that as the distance between you grows, when you face him, you'll gradually lose the mindset you once had, and eventually drift further and further apart."

Seeing Yu Lang was stunned, looking somewhat surprised at the short-haired, dashing girl before him. Although her looks weren't as pretty as her younger sister's, her dashing temperament was still refreshing to behold.

"If you think I'm looking down on you because of your talent and background, then just pretend I didn't say anything." Seeing the look in Seeing Yu Lang's eyes as he stared at her, Bai Bai Doudou thought he felt uncomfortable, and said coldly.

Seeing Yu Lang quickly shook his head, smiled, and said, "You think words of this level can look down on me? Then you're underestimating my skin, Seeing Yu Lang's."

"I'm just a bit surprised that Captain would actually worry about my future."

Bai Bai Doudou said, "As captain, occasionally caring about the physical and mental health of team members is beneficial for the team. After all, if you become stronger in the future, it's a good thing for our squad."
