Chapter 405: Jing Yan Goes Up the High Platform
Supported by two North Peak students, Wen Yu left the square with a gloomy expression.
Meanwhile, Wu Zhi stood arrogantly on the square for a while longer, basking in the countless adoring gazes directed at him.
After about a third of the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Wu Zhi disdainfully glanced at the gathering place of the North Peak students before returning to the platform.
"Peak Master Zhao Qi! This second battle, South Peak has won!"
"The first battle, North Peak won. The second battle, South Peak won. Next, we’ll see the result of the third battle," Hu Yang said with a light laugh.
Listening to Hu Yang’s words, Zhao Qi glanced behind him at Duan Lin and sighed inwardly again.
At that moment, Duan Lin’s face was extremely pale. He hadn’t even entered the arena yet and he was already fearful. It was hard to imagine that in such a state, he could last even the duration of a breath against Deng Qing.
Duan Lin had indeed lost his courage at this point, his mind was blank and his thoughts frozen.
The injury of Wen Yu had terrified him.
In such combats, although death was rare, no one could guarantee it wouldn’t happen.
Especially since he was about to face Deng Qing from South Peak. Deng Qing was notoriously ruthless, not just towards North Peak students, but also those from his own South Peak—there were several whom Deng Qing had severely disciplined.
Duan Lin really wasn’t sure if Deng Qing wouldn’t resort to killing him during their encounter. If Deng Qing decided to kill him while they sparred, perhaps even Peak Master Zhao Qi wouldn’t be able to save him in time!
