Xiao Haokong, who had planned to say a few more words, was at a loss for words when he heard Di Ruolin's words.
Di Ruolin's cold attitude made Xiao Haokong feel as if he had kicked an iron plate. Not only did Di Ruolin not react, but his own feet almost hurt from the shock.
Di Ruolin spoke again. "Xiao Haokong, did you think I was standing there just to watch the show?"
"I wouldn't dare to think so."
Xiao Haokong did not even have the courage to resist Di Ruolin's questioning.
"I have to say, you're very smart."
Suddenly, Di Ruolin praised Xiao Haokong.
However, Xiao Haokong did not feel honored at all after hearing this praise. Instead, he felt his scalp go numb.
He already knew what Di Ruolin was going to say next.
Sure enough, Di Ruolin quickly continued, "The moment Gu Yucheng chose to surrender, you launched an attack. That way, even if you really killed Gu Yucheng, you could say that you didn't know what the people below were saying. By the time you found out, it was already too late! You perfectly found the loophole in what I said before and used it to your advantage. You almost got your way. In fact, I was standing there just now because I was thinking about whether your actions just now met the standard of maliciously killing. "
Everyone held their breath when they heard this. Everyone wanted to know how Di Ruolin would judge Xiao Haokong's actions.
Soon, Di Ruolin spoke again. "I thought about it for a long time, and I still think that you are guilty of maliciously killing! Although you grasped the timing very well, I know that given your strength, you definitely had the ability to withdraw your attack after hearing the sound! Yet, you still did it. This is maliciously killing! "
Xiao Haokong's expression changed slightly. He clearly did not expect that his well-thought-out plan would still be judged guilty by Di Ruolin in the end.
No one knew how the crime of maliciously killing should be punished. Therefore, it was impossible for Xiao Haokong to say that he was not nervous.
"In this matter, I was indeed in the wrong!"
Xiao Haokong reacted quickly and immediately thought of a countermeasure. "Since it was my fault, I should accept the punishment! Why don't the victory of this battle belong to Gu Yucheng? "
"Do you think that the competition organized by Yin-Yang Academy is decided by people?"
Di Ruolin's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, "Let me tell you, if you kill someone with malicious intent, you will die regardless of whether you succeed or not!"
Xiao Haokong's face immediately turned pale.
Xiao Luo hurriedly said, "Lord Di, my son is insensible and violated the academy's rules. He truly deserves death! Since the death penalty is unavoidable, then let me, the father, die in place of my son! After all, the reason why he would do such a stupid thing was because I didn't teach him well. I'm willing to die! "
"I've already said it. Don't try to stir up emotions in front of me. It's useless!"
Di Ruolin said indifferently: "However, since you are smart enough to find loopholes and exploit them, I can spare your life! However, how well you can live will depend on your own ability! "
Xiao Haokong felt that he had just come back from the gates of hell. When he saw this hard-won opportunity, he hurriedly said, "Please enlighten me, Lord Di."
"You and Qin Yi will fight," Di Ruolin said.
At this moment, Di Ruolin said, "If you win, not only will you be fine, you can still stay in my Yin Yang Academy and enjoy good treatment. However, if you lose, I won't kill you. However, you must stay in Yin-Yang Academy and be the lowest servant disciple. Without my order, you will never be able to make a comeback! "
Xiao Haokong immediately fell into deep thought when he heard this. Evidently, he also knew that this was a battle that would determine his future.
There was no doubt that he now knew that this was a huge gamble.
If he won, not only would he not have to die, but he would also be able to make a meteoric rise.
However, if he lost, there would be no way for him to make a comeback! A servant disciple was the lowest disciple in Yin-Yang Academy.
People had always said that being a servant disciple in Yin-Yang Academy was much better than being a genius from one of the eight great families! However, anyone with a bit of brains would know that this was complete nonsense.
A servant disciple was, to put it bluntly, manual labor. Not only did they have no status, but they also had no resources.
No matter what, Xiao Haokong was someone who was used to living a good life. How could he stand such a life?
It would be better to kill him than to make him a servant disciple who could not be promoted!
However, Di Ruolin had already given his order. Even if he did not want to comply, he had to.
"Little Brother Qin!"
Tao Nianyan had already arrived beside Qin Yi. She looked at Qin Yi and said, "I'll have to trouble you with the rest."
Tao Nianyan knew that it would be impossible for her to kill Xiao Haokong with her own abilities.
She could only pin her hopes on Qin Yi.
No matter what, as long as Qin Yi won, Xiao Haokong would have no chance of making a comeback.
If he could seize the opportunity to kill Xiao Haokong during the battle, that would be for the best.
She clearly knew that if she could kill Xiao Haokong during the battle, she would be able to avenge her son. That way, the Xiao family would have nothing to say, and the Yin-Yang Academy would also have nothing to say!
Qin Yi looked at Tao Nianyan and nodded indifferently. "Don't worry, I will do my best to fulfill your wish."
With that, his figure suddenly became blurry, and then he appeared on the fighting ring.
"Both of you, listen up."
Di Ruolin said indifferently, "Now, the battle between the two of you will enter the next round in advance. Regardless of who wins or loses, you can skip the next round. In addition, this battle does not care about life and death. What I mean is that if either of you has the ability to kill the other, I won't hold it against you. Do you understand? "
"Understood!"
Qin Yi and Xiao Haokong nodded at the same time. At that moment, their gazes became extremely serious.
Obviously, they knew very well that the upcoming battle was extremely important to both of them!
The two of them stood on the battle stage at the same time. Both stood with their hands behind their backs and looked at each other indifferently.
