Almost everyone present made their own decision. Except for one or two people who were so foolish as to bet a single gold coin that Saint Glory Academy would definitely win, and were severely criticized by Quan Ji for their lack of judgment, almost everyone else placed a certain number of gold coins on the bet.

The total amount of money that has been bet on Saint Glory Academy has reached 500 million gold coins. In other words, if Saint Glory Academy wins in the end, Quan Ji and the others' principal will increase a hundredfold.

Tsk, another impressive number. It would be so easy to fill the national treasury with that money.

Zhuge Jing took everything in, but didn't realize who this unfamiliar face was.

Judging from the expressions on the other side of Saint Glory Academy's side—this person is probably still connected with Saint Glory Academy.

It seems that Saint Glory Academy is still very confident of winning?

She'll wait and see.

After finishing the game, Quan Ji quietly slipped away, disguised herself as she had been competing, and returned to the team of Shengyao Academy.

They quickly went to register, and five students registered in the student group.

The teachers' group, however, ridiculously submitted only one nomination.

The staff member processing the registration forms frowned as they looked at the registration information for the Shengyao Academy's faculty group. Somewhat puzzled, they asked for confirmation, "Your Shengyao Academy's faculty group competition... are you only planning to let this Quan Baba participate? Senior Yun Shenhai and Senior Fang Si aren't participating?"

Upon hearing the name "Quan Baba," everyone else at Shengyao Academy secretly suppressed a laugh.

Others outside the Holy Glory Academy delegation were also very curious about what Holy Glory Academy was up to and what they were planning.

Only one person was allowed to play, and it was a name they had never heard of before... This was something none of them had expected.

Has Saint Glory Academy gone mad?

Even if they didn't value this World Academy Competition, it shouldn't have come to this!

Quan Ji raised her head and said, "It's just a World Academy Competition, is it really necessary to send two seniors, Yun Shenhai and Fang Si? I, Quan Baba, am enough!"

Her words were extremely arrogant, which infuriated the people from the other colleges.

"Holy crap... Is this person out of their mind? This is the World Academy Grand Competition! It's understandable that someone who's not even a god among mortals is participating in this competition, at most she'd be competing for the top 100... But does she have to look down on people like this?"

"Hehe... There have been arrogant people before, but... all those arrogant people were eliminated first by the top-ranked universities. I don't think this 'powerful bastard' will have a good ending either!"

"Hmph... Saint Glory Academy's attitude is truly infuriating. I remember there was a betting pool about Saint Glory Academy's chances of winning or losing, right? I wasn't sure before, thinking Saint Glory Academy might have a chance, but now it seems... Heh, just an arrogant fool! A half-step human god actually dares to participate alone. I'm going to bet tens of thousands of gold coins right now!"

"Me too! Me too! I'm just waiting to collect this free money, hahaha!"

...

Everyone was almost certain that Quan Ji's words would be noticed by the other top-ranked academies, who would then arrange for Quan Ji, the domineering Quan Ji, to be the first to be eliminated from Shengyao Academy.

No matter how high the scores the students get, if the teachers' group fails, it will be of no use and will not change the final outcome!

The crowd sneered and silently went to spend money on the scheme that Quan Ji had designed earlier.

The students from Saint Glory Academy looked at Quan Ji, their expressions unsure whether to be good or bad.

The young lady is truly... exceptionally peculiar.

The Holy Empire has long since escaped poverty and become wealthy, but the young lady still retains her good habits of swindling money... no, thrift and frugality.

He is truly a role model for us all!

All of this was just a scheme by Quan Ji, a provocation tactic.

And these people foolishly joined in.

Sigh, when it comes to swindling people, you have to look to the young lady—no one else can swindle like her.

...

In fact, Kwon Ji's intentions went beyond that.

In this World Academy Competition, Holy Glory Academy did indeed receive a lot of attention because of Azure Academy.

However, to achieve even greater instant fame, it is essential to create a contrast.

Is she crazy?

That's because she's willing to show off to you all! To let you look down on her!

Only when she beats you all down, one by one, will you remember the name "Holy Glory Academy" forever!

...

Quan Ji's cunning lies in her complete grasp of human nature.

In a secret room where the three major academies are gathered.

The students from Ruoshui Academy, Youhuo Academy, and Jushi Academy, the three top academies, sat together, watching Quan Ji, disguised, spout nonsense in front of the registration platform, and all of them coldly snorted.

Shui Wuyou, Vice Dean of Ruoshui Academy: "Hmph, just a junior. He only inherited the ruins of Canglan Academy, yet he is so arrogant... As the organizer, our academy will teach them a lesson."

Tianhai, the vice dean of Giant Rock Academy, said, "Then... we'll take care of the student group."

However, Zhang Yi, the vice dean of Youhuo Academy and Feng Simian's master, felt that something was amiss.
