Just then, several metal-attribute spiritual energy swords attacked her. Dongfang Mian seemed to have no time to dodge and let out a low cry of pain.
The students from the three academies' eyes lit up at the sight, exclaiming that there was a chance, and each of them grabbed their magical artifacts and flew up.
Dongfang Mian watched with a smile as they pounced on her, each of them landing a high-grade, exquisite brick.
After three muffled thuds, the three men collapsed to the ground, each with a huge bump on their head. They stared at the sky, their faces filled with despair. "Ugh, I'll never trust my own dean again. It would have been so much better if we had just given up. Why did we have to suffer this humiliation?"
The three deans had completely given up, only thinking about finishing the last match as soon as possible and leaving, never wanting to come to the Vermilion Bird Continent again in their lifetime.
The fifth match began without anyone expecting it.
The competition is a contest of formations and earth attribute cultivation. The rules are that the formation and cultivation contests are conducted simultaneously, but attribute skills are not allowed to be used to attack the opponent before the formation is set up.
The students from the three academies went on stage one by one, looking dejected. Even their deans were too lazy to cheer them on. Who knew if they would be embarrassed again in a moment?
This time, Dongfang Mian surprisingly didn't bring out her recliner. Instead, she took out a formation flag and started running around the field, constantly comparing positions and setting up the formation.
Could it be that she's really not good at formations? Everyone was puzzled. Otherwise, according to the procedure, she should be lying down drinking tea and eating melon seeds this time.
A sliver of hope rose in the hearts of the three deans. Even winning just one game would be fine; it wouldn't be so shameful if word got out.
"Don't worry, Dongfang! We'll always support you!" the students, who had already begun celebrating Suzaku Academy's victory, shouted enthusiastically at her.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mian turned to her and smiled shyly, "I have to hurry, I drank too much tea and need to use the restroom."
Everyone was speechless, their hearts churning as if a thousand horses were galloping through them, crushing only their own fragile souls.
"Alright, everyone, see you again someday." The students from the three academies had just begun setting up their formations when Dongfang Mian waved to them and then planted the last formation flag.
Before anyone could react, the students from the three academies vanished from the competition stage in a flash.
"What have you done to our students?!" The three deans stood up angrily, glaring at Dongfang Mian.
Dongfang Mian innocently shrugged and said, "I didn't do anything. The competition is over, and I kindly sent them back first."
Only then did everyone realize that the thing running beneath Dongfang Mian's feet was actually a teleportation array.
"Do you know the coordinates of the three continents?" the three deans asked suspiciously.
"I don't know. I just saw them off from Suzaku Academy. Your students can't even find their own homes, can they?" Dongfang Mian said with a look of disgust.
The three deans were truly furious. Now, they would have to spend even more time searching the entire Vermilion Bird Continent for their students who had been teleported to who-knows-where.
Without a doubt, Dongfang Mian swept the field and won the championship of the Four Academies Competition for Zhuque Academy. Dean Qinglong took out the honor badge of the Four Academies Competition that he had always kept in his ring and slammed it heavily on the table.
"Our Qinglong Academy will not participate in the next Four-Academy Competition."
"Our White Tiger Academy is also not participating."
"We, the Xuanwu Academy, wholeheartedly agree!"
The dean didn't care what threats they were making. At that moment, he was holding the coveted badge of honor from the Four Academies Competition, smiling like a cunning old fox.
