Chapter 95 That's it?
Punishment?
The emperor's gaze toward Shan Yurou was like a poisoned blade, as if he wished he could tear her to pieces on the spot!
Fortunately, he had placed high hopes on Shan Yurou, believing that she would definitely win the championship in this crucial competition, bring glory to the dynasty, and boost morale.
Who could have predicted that she, as the undisputed number one genius of the dynasty, with the strength to crush her opponents, would be so foolish as to choose to take banned drugs and be so stupidly exposed on the spot!
What is this if not courting death and digging one's own grave?
"The Crown Princess of the Dynasty can be a commoner, or even a useless person, but she absolutely cannot be a person of bad character or with a wicked heart!" The Emperor's eyes widened in anger as he glared fiercely at Shan Yurou, his gaze seeming as if he wanted to devour her alive.
If there hadn't been so many people present, he would have killed Shan Yurou with a single sword strike.
A genius?
Are we still guaranteed to win?
Is that all?
Not only did it cause Junchao to lose face in front of the world and become a laughing stock, but it also greatly reduced the originally high morale of Junchao!
Upon hearing the emperor's words, Shan Yurou was struck dumb, her pupils contracted sharply, and she froze on the spot.
Shan Mingyuan, who was standing to the side, was also trembling all over, his face as white as paper.
He never imagined that the banned substance he had painstakingly obtained, which he thought would allow Yu Rou to easily win the match, would now... be completely out of his control and spiral out of control!
"Your Majesty, please don't!" Shan Yurou cried out hoarsely, pleading, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please give me another chance! I will never dare to do it again!"
The emperor glared at Shan Yurou with disgust, his eyes filled with resentment and contempt, and roared, "Opportunity? How can I explain such a disgraceful act to the people of the world? How can I explain it to the other contestants?"
"If you have even a shred of shame, then step down and reflect on your actions!"
"Guards! Immediately post an imperial edict to proclaim to the world! Shan Yurou has been found guilty of using banned drugs, seriously violating the competition rules, and displaying moral depravity and misconduct. Her title of genius is hereby revoked, her engagement to the Crown Prince is cancelled, and she is hereby forbidden from ever setting foot in the palace again!"
The emperor's voice was cold and resolute, carrying an unquestionable majesty.
As soon as he finished speaking, all around fell silent.
Shan Yurou was struck dumb, her body went limp and she collapsed to the ground, as if all her strength had been drained away. Tears streamed down her face, soaking her clothes.
She never imagined it would have such serious consequences.
When the Crown Prince was competing, he didn't mention any testing required!
Moreover, the Southern Dynasty clearly purchased banned drugs, so does that mean they haven't started using them yet?
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she quickly looked at the Crown Prince beside her: "Crown Prince, I..."
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince stood up coldly, looking at Shan Yurou with eyes devoid of their former tenderness and affection, only indifference and disappointment remaining.
"Yu Rou, you have truly disappointed me. Let our engagement be null and void," the Crown Prince said weakly, his voice low and hoarse, as if carrying endless exhaustion.
Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, Shan Yurou felt as if her heart was being torn apart, as if countless sharp blades were simultaneously piercing her heart, causing her so much pain that she could barely breathe.
She looked up at the Crown Prince through teary eyes, choking back sobs, and said, "Your Highness, are you really so heartless? Are you really going to give up on me so easily?"
She thought the Crown Prince would understand her... After all, the Crown Prince had once asked her for forbidden drugs.
However, during the first competition, no one mentioned the doping issue, and she assumed it was permissible to take it and no one would interfere. Little did she expect...
However, during the first competition, no one mentioned the banned drugs, and she naively thought that these banned drugs were safe to take and no one would care. Who would have thought... she would end up in this situation.
"Fool, get out of here! Stop making a fool of yourself!" Old Master Shan shouted, barely containing his anger.
This is a complete disgrace to his family!
He truly regretted not expelling Shan Yu Rou from the Shan family sooner!
Now things are really messed up. Not only is Shan Yurou disgraced, but everyone else is looking at the Shan family with contempt and disdain. They are even wondering if the Shan family's current success is due to taking some pills they shouldn't have taken.
Shan Yurou staggered to her feet, her steps unsteady.
She looked at the Crown Prince with reluctance, only to see him clenching his fists tightly, as if he were enduring something.
However, upon noticing Shan Yurou's gaze, the Crown Prince glared at her fiercely, his eyes filled with intense disgust and even a gnashing hatred!
A pang of pain shot through her heart, and tears instantly blurred her vision.
Even her elder brother, the crown prince, doesn't want her anymore...
Shan Yurou staggered out, but even so, she could still feel the sharp, piercing gazes around her, leaving her feeling utterly wounded.
Once, she was the pride of the dynasty, surrounded by admirers wherever she went. But now, she has become a pariah.
"Don't spoil everyone's fun, let's continue." The Emperor of the Jun Dynasty said with an angry expression.
He tried his best to control his tone and expression, to make his voice sound calmer, and to relax his furrowed brows, but the anger surging in his heart like a volcano was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, completely beyond his control.
Anyone could see that the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty was very angry, and even the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty had lost some of his smile.
However, Junchao has already lost two matches, leaving only three...
Seeing this situation, the Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.
He even felt that there was no need to continue the competition.
After all, their Southern Dynasty had already won two matches decisively. In the remaining three matches, he only needed to arrange for one of the contestants to win one match to easily secure the final victory.
Thinking of this, the corners of his lips unconsciously turned up slightly, his smile full of confidence that he had victory in his grasp.
Even the medicine he bought privately is no longer needed.
The Crown Prince of the Southern Dynasty smiled, and just as he was about to arrange for his strongest opponent to take the stage, Jun Yan suddenly stood up, a playful smile on his face, a smile that carried a hint of unruliness and provocation.
"Brother, it seems I can participate in the competition too?" Jun Yan's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.
Upon hearing Jun Yan's words, the emperor was filled with rage, and his anger instantly flared up.
He thought to himself, "It's already come to this point, the situation is so critical, and the Jun Dynasty is almost completely disgraced. How can you still be thinking of playing around?"
Jun Yan, however, seemed oblivious to the emperor's anger and continued to say to himself, "Since we've already lost two matches and the situation is beyond saving, I might as well let you have some fun."
His tone was relaxed and casual, as if this competition, which concerned national honor, was nothing more than an insignificant game.
