Qu Ling Yue looked to be petite and adorable, but her figure was not considered to be tall. No one would have thought that this year's champion of the War Banner Academy would be such a delicate little girl. And although Qu Ling Yue looked petite, but her background had made many people who had wanted to lay their hands on her retract their evil intentions.
Qu Ling Yue's father was the current Grand Chieftain of the Thousand Beast City and the Thousand Beast City had produced two purple spirit exponents in its history. Although the Thousand Beast City no longer had a purple spirit exponent to hold the fort, its reputation was still strong.
Jun Wu Xie had not interacted with Qu Ling Yue at all. Even at the banquet at the Crown Prince's Residence that day, she had only glanced at Qu Ling Yue from the corner of her eye. Jun Wu Xie did not know why Qu Ling Yue was staring at her like that, and her gaze was different from the others. It did not contain any hostility, but seemed to be searching for something.
Jun Wu Xie turned her gaze away.
Very soon, the person in charge of drawing lots came walking into the competition grounds. At the table at the front of the hall, was a box that was almost completely sealed, with only a small opening for someone to put their hand in. The noisy youths quietened down as they stared nervously at the box. They knew that the key that would determine how far they would be able to go in the Spirit Battle Tournament, would lie within that box.
One by one, the youths walked forward, queuing up to draw their own number. Every number corresponded to two youths, which meant that in the upcoming first round of battles, they would be each other's opponents.
Jun Wu Xie walked over unhurriedly. She stood at the end of the line and her appearance attracted quite a number of people's attention. Almost everyone wanted to be her opponent, because in the eyes of these youths, there was nothing that would be easier to defeat than a young kid like her.
When the disciple from the Dragon Slayers Academy came forward to draw lots, many of them craned their necks to look. Those who had already drawn their number saw the youth from the Dragon Slayers Academy pull out a number marked 'fifty' and they all secretly heaved a sigh of relief. They were all extremely glad that they had not drawn the same number as that youth.
Towards the reactions of the others, the disciple from the Dragon Slayers Academy was feeling rather pleased with himself. He walked down from the side of the table, the fearful gazes of the others greatly satisfying his vanity.
Qu Ling Yue's number was 17, and her opponent almost collapsed when he saw the number plate in Qu Ling Yue's hand.
No matter how attractive Qu Ling Yue's looks were, the title of the top student in the War Banner Academy was enough to strike fear into people's hearts. Besides the people from the Dragon Slayers Academy, no one else would think that going up against Qu Ling Yue would give them any advantage.
One by one, the youths drew their own numbers and besides number seventeen, there was another number that everyone felt was certain death had yet to be chosen. After the youths walked off the stage with trepidation in their hearts, within the entire venue, only Jun Xie was left who had yet to draw her number.
There was almost no need to draw, everyone knew that the last number left in the box was undoubtedly number 50!
At the same time that they were rejoicing that they would not be matched up against the Dragon Slayers Academy, the youths were also feeling highly regretful that the weakest kid in the entire competition grounds had actually been matched up against someone from the Dragon Slayers Academy in the very first round. The only two powerful fighters, against the weakest opponent ….. there was really no suspense at all.
Just as everyone was secretly lamenting that they had not drawn Jun Xie, the face of the youth from the Dragon Slayers Academy whom everyone was secretly afraid of suddenly turned a green hue upon seeing this!
