I want to continue!
Although Wen Yan didn't say anything, her firm gaze clearly conveyed her attitude.
Wen Tai was an ordinary person. If Wen Yan insisted on not leaving, he couldn't do anything about it. He could only try his best to persuade her. However, Wen Yan seemed to have a way to deal with her father's nagging. She just smiled and listened patiently, shaking her head when it was time to express her opinion.
"I don't care anymore!" Wen Tai was exasperated. He swung his hand and let go of Wen Yan. He turned around and was about to leave. However, he turned back after a few steps. Then, he saw Wen Yan smiling and shaking her head at him.
Wen Tai, who used both carrot and stick, was completely helpless. He hesitated and was about to walk back. In the end, the examiner in charge of this duel finally announced the final result of this duel.
"Winners, Amaterasu College, Dao Ran, Tang Qing."
Dao Ran and Tang Qing were the two students left in the duel area. After the examiner announced the result, Dao Ran raised her right hand in victory. She even looked provocatively at Lu Ping's side. When she looked at Wen Yan, her smile became more and more complacent.
No Wen Yan?
Everyone waited for a while. In the end, the examiner just shut up. Obviously, he had no intention of calling out the third person's name.
"Ten people, three remaining?" These were the words the examiners used to announce the start of each group's duels. They were always spoken in an unquestionable tone. But at this moment, Lu Ping's tone was filled with doubt. He was questioning the examiners.
The examiner sneered.
"Childish. Do you think that after you forcefully interfered in the duel, we will still rigidly follow the rules to judge? Wen Yan directly benefited from your interference. We won't be indifferent to this. "
"So she is out?"
"Yes," the examiner said.
"What about these two?" Lu Ping pointed at Dao Ran and Tang Qing in the field.
"They …" The examiner was about to say something, but he suddenly froze. Because only now did he realize that from the perspective of Lu Ping's direct benefit after interfering with the situation, weren't Dao Ran and Tang Qing the same? After Lu Ping had intervened, the two of them had become the "three" among the ten people who would remain alive.
"Wen Yan's benefits are subversive. Before this, her chances of winning were the slimmest." The examiner quickly changed his words.
"Then, what about the second one?" Lu Ping asked again.
"Second most likely?" The examiner was taken aback by the question. In the original scene, Wen Yan had been eliminated, but there were still four people left, even if they were all from Amaterasu College. Even though they were all Xia Bojian's students, one of the four had to be eliminated. Under normal circumstances, the one who would be eliminated would naturally be the weakest. In other words, the one who had the second least chance of winning would be eliminated. This person was …
The examiner was completely stunned.
He was the examiner in charge of this group. After the selected students went up on stage, he naturally sensed everyone's realm, and had a rough understanding of everyone's strength and order in his heart.
Amaterasu College's group sent out four people at once. Dao Ran was the strongest and the most outstanding. The remaining two were almost the same in terms of ability. There was another one that was slightly weaker.
And this slightly weaker one was Tang Qing, who was still in the field. In other words, if Lu Ping had not interfered, he would have been the weakest one to be eliminated after Wen Yan was eliminated.
This guy …
When people realized this, they looked at Lu Ping with a different gaze. No one would have thought that his impulsive move would have been accompanied by such careful consideration. After what he said, it was a little unreasonable to rule out Wen Yan for benefiting too much. Tang Qing was the weakest among the four Tenshou students. He had taken the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"The Soul Selection Contest is held once a year." The examiner, Ding Wen, stood up. "Everyone who is standing here has gone through a long period of hard work to come here with dreams. I am looking forward to it and I hope that everyone will be satisfied with the results. The rules of the Soul Selection Contest are not rigid. For most people who respect their dreams and rely on themselves to fight for more opportunities, we are willing to help them fight for more opportunities. But for those who trample on other people's dreams, we will not be indifferent. Our rules will make you feel the strictness and let you know the right way to win. "
"Oh, I understand." Lu Ping nodded.
"What do you understand?" Su Tang asked.
"That is to say, there is a double standard." Lu Ping said.
"Oh, I see." Su Tang nodded too.
The Soul Selection Platform was silent. Once again, there was only the sound of people losing. Everyone was a little tired of this atmosphere.
The examiner, Ding Wen's impassioned speech, was finally interpreted by Lu Ping. Everyone was angry and amused at the same time. But after thinking about it, they realized. No matter how reasonable Ding Wen's speech was, it was really a double standard. Lu Ping's summary was actually quite to the point.
"This brat looks like he's going to be hard to deal with," said the chubby Wei Zhong from the Canyon Peak City Lord's side.
"From a certain point of view, he really fits our style very well. His words and actions are quite to the point!" Wei Zhong sighed.
"It's a pity that he has already rejected our good intentions." Wei Yang quickly said. He couldn't forget how Lu Ping ignored the invitation he brought on behalf of the Castellan. He couldn't forget the damage that Lu Ping brought to his face. He only wanted revenge and didn't want to resolve things with Lu Ping at all. Hearing the meaning in Wei Zhong's words, he actually admired Lu Ping and wanted to rope him in, so he hurriedly interrupted.
Wei Zhong glanced at Wei Yang. How could he not see through this kid's thoughts?
"My grudge with him is deeper than yours. You don't have to worry." Wei Zhong said lightly.
Wei Yang was a little embarrassed, but didn't dare to say anything more. He might have a better future, but right now, his position in the Twelve Family Guards wasn't good. The Castellan's office, which emphasized efficiency, focused more on the present. They wouldn't give too much care and inclination just because of an unpredictable future. Wei Yang didn't dare to offend Wei Zhong, who had outstanding strength and rich experience.
"Now I'm thinking, will this guy be aware of our intentions? If he deliberately made a move and caused himself to be disqualified, then we won't be able to get rid of him in the Soul Picking Assembly. We'll have to put in more effort. "Wei Ming said.
"If that's the case, then he knows our style quite well." Wei Zhong said. Putting in more effort was something the Castellan's office was most unwilling to do.
"How could this brat be so shrewd?" Wei Tianqi asked.
"In short, don't underestimate him. Don't worry about thinking too much, just don't think of it. This kid's actions are always unexpected. It's not a bad thing to make more deductions. "Wei Zhong said.
"But now that he's out, let's not waste too much time on him. Miss Qin family's mood seems to be very bad … "Wei Ming suddenly changed the topic.
"This … isn't it because of this guy?" Wei Yang was very active in pulling hatred for Lu Ping.
