Even though Luo Yu had already left the arena amidst the cheers of the Tianshui Academy girls, the cheers and applause from the audience surged like waves.
Without exception, everyone felt their tickets were incredibly worthwhile.
Even if they weren't Luo Yu, and most were just ordinary people, seeing Luo Yu's invincible figure and domineering methods on the stage made them feel as if they were fighting on it themselves.
The third match of the first round of the preliminaries had begun, but the audience's attention wasn't focused on the arena; instead, it was all fixed on the Tianshui team.
The beautiful and graceful girls of Tianshui Academy seemed to have temporarily lost their appeal to the audience, while the composed and serene young man in the wheelchair was their object of fervent admiration.
"So strong! So calm and collected, that's the demeanor a young master should have."
"Yeah, those Elephant Armor Sect members aren't that strong, they just know how to put on airs."
A young girl in the audience, her eyes sparkling, asked, "Where's the hotel the Tianshui team is staying at? Does any of you know?"
A disdainful voice came from the side, "Why are you prying into their privacy, you bitch? Are you trying to throw yourself at them?"
"Pah." The girl scoffed, "I might want to throw myself at them, but I'd better know my own limitations. Even if I offered myself, would they accept it? I'd be content just watching from afar."
Upon hearing this, most of the women who were fans of Luo Yu nodded in agreement. They weren't that brainless; although they admired him, they knew that even if they offered themselves to a genius of Luo Yu's caliber, they wouldn't get a chance.
The men were mostly looking on with admiration, while the young girls, young women, and mature women all started whispering among themselves, trying to find out about Luo Yu's background. It wasn't that they had any fantasies, they were just curious and itchy.
On Shrek's side, Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip, her long nails digging tightly into her palms, looking enviously at the girls from Tianshui Academy surrounding Luo Yu.
However, when she saw that Luo Yu showed no arrogance or ostentation under the spotlight, applause, and surrounded by so many girls, her heart trembled again.
A soft murmur escaped her lips, a voice so faint it could only be heard by herself, "That's a real man."
Xiao Wu blinked her bright eyes, filled with admiration, her small hands stroking her soft, black hair. Seeing the man's heroic figure just now inevitably reminded her of the scene when he carried her away in the Star Dou Great Forest, and her pretty face flushed.
Tang San stared blankly at Luo Yu, then lowered his head and clenched his fist. The strength Luo Yu had just displayed made him feel powerless and numb for the first time in his life.
Gradually, he began to regain his senses, an incredulous look on his face. "How is this possible? I have the Tang Sect's ultimate techniques, the mature mindset of my past life, and even twin martial souls. Why do I feel the distance between us growing ever wider?"
"Even in two lifetimes, I can't compare to him. What kind of monster is he?" Looking at Xiao Wu, whose gaze was focused on someone else, Tang San suddenly felt a pang of bitterness and jealousy.
Ma Hongjun's fat face had lost all its wickedness, replaced by utter shock. He was completely stunned by Luo Yu's violent actions. Watching the "charred remains" being carried to the waiting area on stretchers, his thick thighs trembled uncontrollably.
Tailong, the substitute, and the other team members who joined later looked at the various expressions of the former Shrek Academy members with some confusion. However, they remembered Dai Mubai, who had provoked the invincible youth after the victory, and couldn't help but turn to look.
At this moment, Dai Mubai stood there, his arrogant and domineering aura completely gone. His face was deathly pale, and his evil eyes were filled with endless regret and fear.
His lips trembled, and he asked in disbelief, "How is this possible? How did this kid become so strong? Wasn't he a white spirit ring? Wasn't he supposed to be unable to cultivate to a high level?"
After a rapid self-doubt and shaking his head, Dai Mubai trembled all over. "If I met this guy, if I met him..."
At this moment, Dai Mubai's face was ashen, utterly dejected. Where was his previous high spirits? He had always wanted to clash with that kid's team and then crush him to avenge his previous defeat. Who would have thought that before the fight even started, he was already in despair.
Zhu Zhuqing saw Dai Mubai's appearance, shook her head, and a look of disgust and disdain flashed in her eyes.
The audience didn't remember how arrogant Dai Mubai had been, but she remembered how arrogant he had been after the first match, even standing on the stage to unilaterally provoke Luo Yu.
If Dai Mubai were undaunted by difficulties and still possessed the same courage as before, even if he failed to challenge Luo Yu, Zhu Zhuqing would actually respect him more. Now, however,
Zhu Zhuqing turned her gaze back to Luo Yu, a resolute glint in her eyes. "You must elevate your strength to its peak so you can pursue the life you want, instead of weakly obeying your family's arrangements."
Aside from the two girls, the entire Shrek team felt utterly ashamed. They not only remembered their earlier provocation but also the boastful words they had uttered upon entering the arena.
"Tch, a champion without rivals? How shameless must those guys be to come up with such a pretentious slogan?"
Shui Yue'er pushed Luo Yu, glaring like a little tiger in the direction of Shrek Academy. Even if others didn't remember, she always remembered a boy provoking her Yu-ge.
Xue Wu chuckled beside her, "Why are you angry, girl? Didn't you see they're all deflated? After seeing Yu-ge's strength, they should all know what's going on."
Shui Yue'er said angrily, "That's not good at all! I wanted to teach them a lesson myself, but I'm afraid they'll just surrender when our two teams compete."
Shui Bing'er said with a smile, "That depends on whether they have any backbone. If they have the guts to talk big but not the guts to fight, then they're slapping themselves in the face and making others look down on them even more."
Ning Rongrong had long ignored Dai Mubai and the others, keeping a close eye on Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu's gazes. She couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis. She had no chance in love, but her competitors were starting to increase.
Turning her head to secretly look at the man over there who seemed to be doing nothing, Ning Rongrong cheered herself up, "Rongrong, I can't be lazy. I really have to work hard, otherwise it will be hard for me to be worthy of him."
Luo Yu saw Su Yaoyun walking towards him from a distance and couldn't help but smile, "Thank you."
Su Yaoyun's charming and bright face showed a hint of reproach, and she lightly flicked Luo Yu's forehead with her finger.
"What are you doing?"
Su Yaoyun pouted, then transmitted her voice coquettishly, "How many times have I told you, don't thank me. It's just suppressing an academy teacher."
"Tsk tsk, little man, if you really want to thank me, I'll be waiting for you in my room tonight."
Luo Yu looked at the woman's mischievous expression, and black lines quickly appeared on his forehead. Although it was a voice transmission and the people around couldn't hear it, he still thought this vixen was too bold.
"Sigh." Shui Bing'er and the other girls exchanged glances, then sighed deeply.
Luo Yu asked curiously, "What's wrong with you all?"
Shui Bing'er rolled her eyes and said, "It's
all your fault! You showed off your power right from the start, causing such a commotion. We were thinking of showing off our cultivation first, but now we don't need to." Luo Yu looked at the girls' resentful expressions and quickly shifted the blame, "Uh, cough cough, it's all that wicked Elephant Armor Academy's fault for provoking me."
Mo Xue pouted and said, "Brother Yu, it's all your fault! If you had held back a bit, the commotion would have been smaller, and we would have had a chance to show off in the next match."
Luo Yu sighed, shrugged, and wanted to say something, but then decided against it.
Shui Yue'er thought Luo Yu was unhappy and asked nervously, "What's wrong, Brother Yu? They just wanted to show off their strength, they're not really blaming you."
"I know."
"Actually, I wanted to say that I really didn't use my full strength in the match just now."
"What? You didn't use your full strength? Brother Yu, what level have you reached now?" The girls exclaimed in surprise, only Su Yaoyun's pink eyes shone brightly, and she smiled without saying a word.
In the end, looking at Luo Yu's genuine expression, the girls felt that even their own teammates were starting to lose their composure.
How could the difference between people be so great? It's unbearable.
"Bing'er, what kind of look is that?" Luo Yu couldn't stand her scrutinizing gaze.
"I'm starting to wonder if you're some kind of ferocious beast that has turned into a demon, otherwise how could you be so abnormal?"
The
morning's matches hadn't even ended yet, and Luo Yu and his group were already preparing to slip away early. The intense gazes coming from the audience were too frightening, and the girls from Tianshui Academy were really worried that they wouldn't be able to leave.
Outside the Heaven Dou Grand Arena, Shui Yue'er, pushing Luo Yu, had just stepped out the gate. Looking at the scene outside, she couldn't help but show a reproachful expression, glaring at Luo Yu with dissatisfaction.
"Brother Yu, it's all your fault! How are we going to get back now?!" (
