Jin Ling'er truly lived up to her reputation as the woman Dong Ren dreamed of. Her charming face, alluring figure, and the golden aura emanating from her body made her appear noble and imposing. In particular, the high-grade, exquisite spiritual weapon in her hand, inlaid with various gemstones, drew everyone's attention.
Dongfang Mian then realized where the gold-quenching liquid she had helped the dean auction had gone. Suddenly, she began to pray that Dong Ren would eventually win the heart of the beauty, otherwise her money would have been wasted.
However, to be fair, despite his tough-sounding name, Tie Xiong, the dean of the Crimson Fire Alchemy Academy, actually has a very scholarly appearance and doesn't have the usual irritable and impulsive air of an alchemist. On the other hand, although Dong Ren has an elegant name, he is a real big and burly man. Dongfang Mian had no choice but to vote for Tie Xiong.
Continuing to examine it, although there are six special attributes, Suzaku Academy only has five colleges. Due to the extreme rarity of the poison attribute, Suzaku Academy has never had any students or teachers since its establishment.
To her surprise, Dongfang Mian discovered that the director of Luoshui Hospital was a very young man, who looked to be about the same age as her. He had a very handsome appearance and spoke in a way that was like a gentle breeze.
"It's so beautiful!" Dongfang Mian couldn't help but keep looking at it.
Seemingly sensing Dongfang Mian's gaze, the director of Luoshui Hospital smiled slightly in her direction.
Although she didn't know if the smile was directed at her, Dongfang Mian still blushed shyly.
Suddenly, Dongfang Mian felt a cold gaze on her. Turning around, she saw Yan Lin sitting with the Qingmu Beast Academy members. After glaring at her fiercely, Yan Lin looked at the hospital director with a hint of murderous intent.
"Tch, arrogant brat, glaring at me like that. I'll just watch," Dongfang Mian thought to herself.
"I'm warning you, you're not allowed to do anything to betray Rin-sama. You're already Rin-sama's person, and I'm counting on clinging to Rin-sama's coattails for the rest of my life," Aju reminded him irritably.
When Dongfang Mian received the rumor about Aju, his heart almost jumped out of his chest. What? She thought Aju was his person? You stinky cat! He grabbed Aju by the tail and started beating it up on the butt.
Those around her kept their distance silently, thinking to themselves, "Does this freshman from the Beast Academy think that crippling a pet will exempt her from the competition?"
Soon, the deans of the academies finished speaking one by one, and then drew lots on behalf of the academies to determine the order of the competition. Dong Ren was extremely nervous. When he opened the draw, he saw that it was a standard number three.
The competition started quickly. The worst off was Yutujin, who drew number one. Because the competition was a ring match, the first person to step up had to keep fighting to stay in the game, while the last person only had to fight one match. This was a major test of everyone's physical strength.
Although the competition format seemed unreasonable, no one dared to object, since the headmaster had said that luck is also a form of skill.
The students from the Earth Array Academy entered the arena amidst grumbling and cursing. Skilled in array formations, they quickly set up several arrays on the stage to reduce the consumption of their spiritual energy.
Their opponents were ordinary students from the Bloodline Academy who drew number two. Because they lacked the spiritual energy enhancement of special attributes, they adopted an extremely simple and brutal tactic from the start. The formation set up by the Earth Control Array Academy made them have to consume more spiritual energy to maintain the formation's operation.
Soon, the Yutu Array Academy was routed under the University Hall's relentless attack and became the first to be eliminated, finishing last in this academy competition.
