"That's why Zhuqing, Qin Sheng, I'll leave the rest of the team to the two of you. Zhuqing will be in charge of leading the team, while Qin Sheng will be in charge of planning and strategizing.
"There won't be any strong opponents in the qualifier round. Only the teams from the four elemental academies are worthy of our attention. The two of you are strong enough. If Zhuqing takes the field, she'll be able to sweep the entire competition as a Soul King.
"After all, the qualifier round is a demonstration of one's strength. It's a one-on-one battle, and the strongest team on our side is a one-on-one battle. Zhuqing, Qiu 'er, Ling Wei, Qin Sheng, you're all good at one-on-one battles. You won't have any problems passing the qualifier round.
"That's why my presence shouldn't have much of an impact."
Lu Yuan smiled as he spoke.
"No, your presence will have a huge impact on us. If you're here, we won't be afraid of anything. If you're not here, our team will lose its backbone. Everyone is actually very reliant on you." Lu Yuan had just finished speaking when Dugu Yan's voice rang out. She rebutted Lu Yuan's words.
"Dugu Yan is right. Captain, you're our spiritual pillar. When you're here, we're not afraid of any opponents. However, when you're not here, we feel a little anxious." After Dugu Yan finished speaking, Ning Rongrong chimed in.
"Really? Am I that important? "Lu Yuan chortled.
"You are. To us, you're the most important." Wang Qiu 'er immediately answered Lu Yuan's question.
Her pinkish-blue eyes blinked, and there was a look of attachment in them.
When he saw Wang Qiu 'er's eyes, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile. He reached out and gently caressed Wang Qiu' er's smooth, bright golden hair.
Lu Yuan lifted his head and looked at everyone. He had a serious expression on his face as he said, "I'm very grateful that everyone trusts me and relies on me. However, I'm really going to leave for a while. Furthermore, you can't always rely on me. You need to be independent."
"This departure is a test for all of you. The content of the test is the promotion competition. I request that all of you don't lose a single match. If you can do it, after the finals, each of you will have a gift. I guarantee that this gift will definitely satisfy all of you."
"What I want to know now is, do you have the confidence to complete my test?"
"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison.
"Very good, very imposing." Lu Yuan was very satisfied with everyone's confidence. He smiled and said, "That's it then. Everyone is dismissed."
However, even after Lu Yuan's voice fell, no one left.
"What's the matter? I told you to disperse. Why are you still here?" Lu Yuan asked with a smile when he saw that the crowd didn't move at all.
"Captain, I'd like to ask. You're leaving for the promotion round, but will you be back for the finals?" Fu Qinsheng asked softly.
"Of course. I'll be back for the finals with everyone." After hearing Fu Qinsheng's words, Lu Yuan finally understood why they weren't leaving. They were all concerned about whether he would be back for the finals.
As he thought until here, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He smiled and said softly, "Alright.
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They could still handle the promotion round, but without Lu Yuan, they really didn't have the confidence to win the finals. Furthermore, they really wanted to fight alongside Lu Yuan in the finals.
After receiving Lu Yuan's confirmation, they felt as if a huge rock had been lifted from their hearts.
After that, everyone left one by one. Only Lu Yuan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Wang Qiu 'er remained.
"Obuchi, what's the matter that made you leave halfway through the competition?" Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but ask as she looked at Lu Yuan.
After hearing this, Wang Qiu 'er, who was hugging Lu Yuan's left arm, couldn't help but raise her head. Her face was filled with curiosity.
After gently pinching Wang Qiu 'er's tender cheeks, Lu Yuan pointed at the Holy Sword Insignia on his head. He sighed and said, "It's all because of this."
"Has your second test started?" Zhu Zhuqing was a little surprised as she asked.
"Yes, I received the news before I went on stage today. That's why I had to leave. You know how important this thing is." Lu Yuan sighed softly.
"Yes." After hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing nodded gently. After that, she seemed to recall something and asked, "Then, Chihiro Snow …?"
"Naturally, Xue 'er will be going back with me." Lu Yuan nodded and said.
"Oh!" Zhu Zhuqing replied softly.
"Zhuqing, I'll have to trouble you to work hard over the next few days. I'll have to trouble you to take care of the Heavenly Star Team and Qiu 'er. This is especially so for Qiu' er. She looks obedient on the surface, but she's actually very active on the inside. You have to discipline her well, and don't let her go out and cause trouble." Lu Yuan said softly.
"I know. Leave it to me." Zhu Zhuqing said.
"Yes, I'm not worried about you." As Lu Yuan spoke, he lowered his head and pinched Wang Qiu 'er's cheeks. "Qiu' er, remember to listen to your sister-in-law. Do you understand? If I find out that you're disobedient and cause trouble, I'll send you back directly. "
"Elder brother, Qiu 'er will be obedient. Don't send Qiu' er back. It's very boring there." Wang Qiu 'er tugged at Lu Yuan's sleeve. She had a pitiful look on her face, and her large, powdery-blue eyes sparkled. She looked so pitiful that even the most cold-hearted person would soften at the sight of her.
Lu Yuan was no exception.
"That will depend on your performance, Qiu 'er. If you perform well, I'll reward you." Lu Yuan smiled as he said.
"Yes, don't worry, elder brother. I'll perform well." When she heard Lu Yuan say that there would be a reward, Wang Qiu 'er's eyes brightened. She hurriedly expressed her attitude to Lu Yuan.
When he heard this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile. He stroked her golden hair again.
"When are you planning to leave?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"In the next few days. I'll look for Cher later to confirm the exact time." Lu Yuan said softly as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing.
.....
Crown Prince's Residence!
In Chihiro Snow's study.
"I knew you'd come." When he saw Lu Yuan suddenly appear in the study, Chihiro Snow's hand paused as he was reading some documents. He revealed a beautiful smile on his face as he spoke softly.
"The second test has already started. How can I not come?" He took two steps forward and pulled a chair over to sit opposite Chihiro Snow's desk. As he looked at Chihiro Snow, Lu Yuan smiled as he spoke.
