Zhu Zhuqing looked back at Teacher Xin.
Teacher Xin smiled slightly, also looking at her.
Zhu Zhuqing's cold face instantly flushed a few shades.
"Zhuqing, go. Follow your heart. No matter how you want to fight this match, your Teacher supports you."
Zhu Zhuqing seemed to hear her Teacher's encouragement, and her eyes immediately filled with confidence. She turned, walked to the very front of the team, and said to her Heart of Fire Academy teammates:
"Senior and Junior Siblings, I believe you've heard a bit about the matters between Dai Mubai and me. For this match, I want to be willful."
"I want to face Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun alone. This is the grudge of my marriage alliance with the Star Luo Dai family and Zhu family. The rule of the Star Luo Empire is that the strong have the right to speak. Dai Mubai and I have already gone our separate ways, but I can fight two against one. If I win, it will be enough to prove that I have the power to control my own destiny."
Zhu Zhuqing bowed to her six teammates: Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Ye Lingling, Dugu Yan, Meng Yiran, and Bell.
Ning Rongrong nodded: "I agree with your strategy, Zhuqing. Go ahead, we'll back you up."
Dugu Yan, Meng Yiran, and the others looked at the members of the Star Luo Royal team:
"Then, leave the other team members to us. Don't worry, we will create an arena that is absolutely yours."
At this moment, the students of Heart of Fire Academy became serious, gradually calming down from the joy and excitement of their Teacher's appearance.
Although they usually competed for their Teacher's favor, squabbling and laughing, they were a team and had long considered each other indispensable.
This was the state their Teacher hoped to see in them: unity!
...
"Good sister, even if you joined Heart of Fire Academy, even if your strength has undergone a transformation, can you still resist the entire imperial family and the entire clan by yourself? That's impossible!"
"Just accept your fate."
"Your Heart of Fire Academy is indeed powerful, probably relying on the teachings of that Peach Immortal Teacher, allowing you to cultivate powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skills, but this doesn't mean you yourself possess the ability to fight two against one, let alone with me and Weisi working together."
Zhu Zhuyun's graceful figure was on par with Zhu Zhuqing's, but her appearance seemed more mature. Seeing Zhu Zhuqing dare to face the two of them alone, Zhu Zhuyun was very surprised.
