"Lixue."
Xu Lixue, who was fighting against the three academies, suddenly heard his teacher Xu Mai's voice.
"Get ready to move." Xu Mai said.
Xu Lixue, who had never panicked before, was startled when he heard Xu Mai's words. He quickly retreated, wanting to get rid of the enemy in front of him. The two men from the Big Dipper Gate who were cooperating with him were in a fluster. Everyone had a tacit understanding and did not question Xu Lixue's intentions. They did their best to cover for him and helped him to get rid of his opponent.
Xu Lixue glanced at the Yuheng Sect members who were still repairing the training grounds. He, who had never doubted Xu Mai's decisions, answered his teacher with a question.
"Now?" He wanted to confirm.
"Yes, now." Xu Mai's reply was quick, clear and unquestionable.
What happened?
Xu Lixue did not ask. He knew there must be an important reason. He had been guarding the Seven Star Tower all this time. Everything he had done was to prepare for this step. But now, he was not ready yet. Did he have to take the risk to use this decisive move?
What was the reason?
Xu Lixue, who was guarding the deepest part, did not pay much attention to the previous battle. Now that he was paying attention, he immediately noticed the blue light formation that was gathering in the distance.
Five Net Void Kill Realm? Xu Lixue immediately deduced. And the one trapped in that direction was Lu Ping.
Thus, he immediately understood why his teacher released the decisive move so hastily.
It was because of Lu Ping.
Lu Ping single-handedly killed his way in and distracted the three academies with a single punch, greatly reducing the pressure on Big Dipper.
His power was a great threat to the three academies, but it was a great help to North Style Academy.
And he was just a newbie. He had only been in the academy for a month, but he had already risked his life for Big Dipper.
How tragic was the battle in the Phecda Peak? Although he did not witness it personally, he could imagine the corpses strewn all over the valley. If there was no battle, if there was no ambush in the valley, what would North Style Academy be like now? No one dared to think.
The one who did this was Lu Ping. Lu Ping who had just entered the academy and received special treatment from North Style Academy. He had already saved the North Style Academy once, and now, he came again! He was trapped in the Five Luo Void Kill Realm, so how could Big Dipper not save him?
Swoosh …
A figure suddenly flitted across the sky. Xu Lixue hurriedly raised her head and saw a figure flying straight towards the top of the Seven Star Tower.
Academician Song?
Xu Lixue recognized the figure and quickly retracted the attack he was about to make.
Song Yuan landed on the Seven Star Tower's roof and took two deep breaths to calm his chaotic Soul Power. He, who was in charge of Tian Xuan Peak, had always given the impression of being strict and old-fashioned. But at this moment, his beard was in a mess and he was panting heavily. The academician robe was torn in a few places, but he ignored it. If it were in the past, Song Yuan would be able to repair the damage in the blink of an eye with Something Out of Nothing. But at this moment, he was unwilling to waste any more energy on this matter.
"Why?" After catching his breath, Song Yuan immediately questioned Xu Mai agitatedly. Just like Xu Lixue, he had forcibly retreated from the battlefield after receiving the news. He had almost been devoured by his own courage.
Xu Mai pointed into the distance.
"So?" Song Yuan didn't even look at it and continued to ask Xu Mai. It wasn't that he didn't know Xu Mai's intentions. This was what he truly wanted to question.
"You are willing to disregard the safety of the entire academy just to save him?" Song Yuan continued.
"Big Dipper has a clear conscience, but he has a clear conscience." Xu Mai glanced at Song Yuan calmly.
"I am also doing this for Big Dipper!" Song Yuan knew what Xu Mai was referring to. The ones who had treated Lu Ping unfairly were his Tian Xuan Peak. On this point, the North Style Academy was in the wrong and had a clear conscience towards Lu Ping. He wouldn't deny this. But even if he had to do it again, he would still make the same choice and do the same thing. Unless he knew at that time that this Lu Ping wasn't simple and actually had such strength.
This was currying favor with those in power. This was what he was doing. He wouldn't deny it at all. It was just like what he did before. It was just that in his eyes, Lu Ping was just a nobody. He didn't wish for a nobody to affect the relationship between the North Style Academy and the Black Army Empire.
It didn't matter if he liked it or hated it. It didn't matter if it was right or wrong. He would make the choice that would benefit the North Style Academy.
"I know," Xu Mai replied simply. He knew. He knew everything. He knew some of Song Yuan's actions and also knew why Song Yuan would do such a thing. He knew that it was wrong, but he also knew that it was more beneficial for the North Style Academy. He knew everything, but because he knew everything, he felt pain and was placed in a difficult position.
He was the high and mighty dean of the North Style Academy, but he felt that he was useless in this matter. Everyone felt that he was very righteous. Only he knew how cowardly his righteousness was when it collided with the academy's benefits. He didn't dare to stubbornly persist, fearing that it would harm the academy. However, he didn't have the courage to be like Song Yuan and be unscrupulous for the sake of the academy.
A person like him should only be able to handle small matters, right?
But this time … …
Xu Mai's gaze was filled with determination.
"If you do this, what about those disciples who sacrificed their lives? Won't Big Dipper be ashamed of them?? "Song Yuan saw through Xu Mai's determination and took a step forward to continue asking.
"Big Dipper will not be ashamed of anyone!" Xu Mai said. This was his only confidence. He had led the North Style Academy for so many years, but he didn't bring much development to the academy. Perhaps this was the only thing he could do.
"What are you planning to do?" Song Yuan was slightly startled. Xu Mai's tone revealed a hint of determination. However, if he were to carry out this large customization without repairing it, there would be a huge hidden danger. If he failed at the last step, wouldn't those disciples who sacrificed their lives to protect the academy be crippled?
However, Xu Mai said that he wouldn't be ashamed of anyone. In other words, he wouldn't let their sacrifices go to waste.
Did he have a way to repair the damaged large customization?
When Song Yuan thought of this, he tilted his head and looked at the Seven Star Valley.
However … … his standard in the field of customization abilities was only average. He could still understand the simple customization abilities, but the complicated large customization of the Seven Star Valley was something even he couldn't understand.
"You will be in charge from now on. Protect Big Dipper well." Xu Mai smiled and patted him. He then turned around and walked into the building.
"What are you planning to do!" Song Yuan wanted to chase after him, but when he saw the battle between the North Style Academy and the three great academies below, he hurriedly gave instructions to remedy the situation. Although he was anxious, he didn't dare to leave the rooftop.
Xu Mai stepped into the building. The guests on the top floor didn't expect the Principal of the North Style Academy to appear at this time. Although they were under the protection of the North Style Academy, their identities were absolutely neutral. Some of them might even be biased towards the three great academies. When they saw Xu Mai, the atmosphere in the building immediately became a little strange. What if Xu Mai asked for help? How were they supposed to side with him?
When they thought of this, many people immediately avoided eye contact. Many of them were even more vexed. When they found out that the three great academies were the ones crusading against the North Style Academy, they should have left this place. In any case, the three great academies wouldn't make things difficult for them. Why were they still staying here to watch?
The people on the first floor all had different thoughts. None of them spoke. Xu Mai faintly smiled, "Everyone, are you used to staying in the building? Don't you feel bored?"
Why are you still asking this kind of question at this time! What does he mean? Is he saying that if you're not bored, you should go out and help?
The people in the building looked at each other in dismay. For a moment, no one answered. Xu Mai didn't have the intention to wait for a reply. He continued, "There might be some changes later on. I won't be able to take care of you all. Please forgive me. However, I guarantee that the Sevenstar Tower will be safe. Please be at ease."
"Alright, alright … …" When everyone heard this, they replied one after another. Xu Mai faintly smiled again. He turned around and didn't go upstairs. Instead, he walked downstairs.
Everyone was discussing Xu Mai's actions in a low voice. They didn't know what kind of changes he was talking about. On the other hand, a sharp glint flashed across Yan Ge's eyes.
Is it coming?
I've been waiting for this moment!
Yan Ge noticed that his left hand, which was leaning on the window frame, was trembling slightly. He quickly hid his hand in his sleeve and tilted his head to look outside. He saw that his fellow disciples from Alioth Peak were still busy.
This … … It's not time yet!
Yan Ge raised his eyes and swept his gaze across the battlefield. From the start of the attack from the three great academies, the North Style Academy had never gained the upper hand. Although the appearance of Lu Ping helped to alleviate some of the pressure, it was still unable to turn the situation around. Other than defending with all their might, the North Style Academy couldn't do anything else. But even so, it wasn't the time for them to be completely defeated. If it was a custom-made item, they wouldn't be forced to use it now!
What was the reason?
Yan Ge's gaze swept across the battlefield. Finally, it landed on the blue light at the far end. The Quintuple Void Kill Realm was trapping Lu Ping within.
Was it because of Lu Ping?
Yan Ge couldn't think of any other explanation. He couldn't see any other reason. Saving Lu Ping seemed to be the only plausible reason.
As expected of Dean Xu Mai! He was so stupid that it made people admire him. What was he thinking? Did he feel that Lu Ping's battle prowess could be the key to turning the situation around? So he must save him?
Since the four great academies had the ability to trap Lu Ping once with the Quintuple Void Kill Realm, they must have a way to trap Lu Ping again. This Lu Ping, it was really difficult for him to become the savior!
Dean Xu Mai, aren't you expecting too much from this Lu Ping? How desperate are you to bet everything on Lu Ping?
Looking at Xu Mai's figure that quickly appeared downstairs, Yan Ge who was standing at the side of the building couldn't stop thinking. He was a little emotional. But all of this didn't hinder his plan. It should even be said that it was clearly helping his plan. He had always been waiting for this moment.
And thinking about it carefully, what was going on with the custom-made item? Wasn't it destroyed when Lu Ping came to the second ring to challenge the Big Dipper Competition?
He destroyed the custom-made item, and in the end, the custom-made item had no choice but to be destroyed because of him?
Interesting, truly interesting! He was even suspecting whether this guy was actually helping him in the dark.
"What are you laughing at?" Suddenly, Yan Ming's voice came from beside him.
"Nothing. It's just that a good show is about to start, so I'm a little excited," Yan Ge said.
"Excited to this extent?" Yan Ming also laughed. "It seems that you know what Dean Xu was talking about."
Yan Ge smiled.
He knew. Of course he knew. After so many years of planning and preparation, wasn't this what he was waiting for?
