"Last challenger, ranked 173rd, Zhou Tong!" Wei Rong mustered all his strength and announced.
Unknowingly, there was only one person left. Even Wei Rong himself felt that this transfer student was a little scary. Even if this was a tag-team battle and not a sea of people, the people who had been defeated by this transfer student were enough to form a tall wall!
Meanwhile, the students of the Fire School felt like they had been rejuvenated when they heard that the last challenger was ranked in the top two hundred.
Even if Mo Fan managed to cast a spell in the end, it was impossible for him to win against someone ranked in the top two hundred. It seemed like the heavens were still fair to the Fire School!
"This Zhou Tong is lucky. I should've signed up too. I guess I'll be the last one."
"Don't be so lucky. Over two hundred people from the Fire School were defeated by the transfer student. I don't even dare to call myself a member of the Fire School anymore."
"It's better than being wiped out!"
"That's true, that's true!"
Zhou Tong, ranked 173rd, was everyone's last hope.
Zhou Tong was a short guy. His lower teeth covered his upper front teeth. His appearance was nothing to be proud of, but he had a pair of small eyes that seemed to be conceited.
He looked at Mo Fan and let out a snicker like a mouse. He said to Mo Fan, "I thought I would miss the chance to be ranked in the top one hundred since I signed up so late. I didn't expect you to be able to last until now."
Zhou Tong seemed to be talking to Mo Fan casually, but his shifty eyes were glancing at someone else.
It was Liu Qian!
He was not close to Liu Qian, but when Liu Qian knew that he was the last challenger, he asked Zhou Tong for a favor.
Liu Qian wanted Mo Fan to be severely injured, to the extent that he would have to stay in the infirmary for a few months.
If the mission was completed, Liu Qian would reward him handsomely.
Liu Qian was still holding a grudge against the transfer student. However, since someone was willing to pay him to take his life while he was sick, it was a simple task. Judging from the fatigue on the transfer student's face when he could not even cast a single spell, it was obvious how simple the deal was.
…
Mo Fan stood there. His face was a little pale.
The battle had gone on for far too long. His Mana had been depleted, and his injuries were worsening. It had not been easy for him to hold on until now.
"Teacher Wei Rong, hurry up and start. Don't give him too much time to rest," Zhou Tong urged. He looked like he could not wait to reap the fruits of victory.
Wei Rong nodded and announced the start.
Just as he finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out. It was directed at Wei Rong.
"Let's call it a day." It was unknown when Dean Xiao had arrived, but just as Wei Rong was about to start, he stopped him.
"Dean Xiao."
"Dean."
The teachers hurriedly made way for him. Even though Wei Rong was from the Fire School and was not under Principal Xiao's jurisdiction, he was still the Principal after all. It was only right for them to show him some respect.
"Mofan, you should come down too. There's no need to fight to the death. It won't do you any good for your future development in the Fire School," said Dean Xiao to Mofan.
"Oh, you're right," Mofan nodded.
"Apologize to Teacher Wei Rong. Apologize to the seniors of the Fire School. After all, you're new here …" It was obvious that Dean Xiao wanted to take charge of the situation.
"Uhh … alright." Mofan was not a stubborn person. Since Dean Xiao had spoken, it would not do him any good to continue wasting time.
Mofan faced Wei Rong and lowered his head to apologize. He then followed Dean Xiao's instructions and apologized to the students of the Fire School in front of everyone.
The students of the Fire School were dumbfounded when they saw the demon king's seemingly sincere apology.
Didn't he say that he would apologize to them one by one? How did Dean Xiao clear his name with just a few words?
"Dean Xiao, if we can't make him apologize to them one by one, how is the Fire School going to survive in the Pearl Institute?" Wei Rong finally could not help but whisper.
"Wei Rong, if the fight continues, this Zhou Tong might not stand a chance against Mofan," whispered Dean Xiao to Wei Rong.
Teacher Gu Han nodded too. As a matter of fact, he had already given Wei Rong a hint at the beginning.
"He no longer has any strength left. How is it possible that Zhou Tong can't beat him?" Wei Rong raised his eyebrows and said angrily.
Dean Xiao did not want too many people to know about Mofan's true talent. After all, they were preparing for the World College Tournament. It would not do them any good if they were exposed too much. As such, he whispered into Wei Rong's ears.
Wei Rong was not stupid. Even though Dean Xiao's words were very vague, he could not help but break out in a cold sweat!
Wei Rong soon realized why Dean Xiao had stepped forward to host the duel … he was trying to protect the reputation of the Fire School!
Dean Xiao was well aware that Mofan was a maniac with four Elements. If the duel continued, and the stubborn Mofan continued to use his Shadow Element, Zhou Tong would never stand a chance against Mofan. Considering that Mofan was going to participate in the World College Tournament in the future, Dean Xiao did not want Mofan to expose his Element. After all, the World College Tournament was extremely important to the national team!
"If that's the case, let's call it a day." Wei Rong did not dare to waste any more time.
Dean Xiao's words had already revealed some information. Wei Rong did not dare to risk the reputation of the Fire School. Since Mofan had already apologized to him and the students, it was reasonable for them to step down …
"We can't just let it go like this!"
"Let Zhou Tong continue the duel!"
"Yeah, either the entire Fire School is a bunch of trash like he said, or he will apologize to us one by one."
However, the students of the Fire School were not happy about it!
They wanted to see Mofan apologizing to them one by one. After all, they had lost a lot of face today. How could they redeem themselves if they did not do it in such a way?
"Wasn't he being full of himself? Yeah, he's very strong, and we admit that many people from the Fire School are no match against him. However, he dares to trample on us as he pleases, and we should just let him go if he wants to, "said the person who was defeated previously.
Mofan had already provoked the crowd. It was obvious that he was running out of stamina, and was about to lose the duel. Therefore, most people had no intention of letting him go.
"Seriously, some people from the Fire School, don't be so shameless. If I were him, I would have lost my temper long ago after defeating more than two hundred people in a row. I wouldn't have the mood to watch him apologize to one by one. Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" cursed Ai Tutu, who had arrived early to watch the duel.
"Yeah, maybe he didn't want to embarrass the Fire School, that's why he was kind enough to let you guys go. Who knew that you guys would kick him when he's down? Didn't you hear Dean Xiao and the headmaster? Those of you who are jealous of his brilliance today are still trying to protect your laughable pride. "Many people from the other faculties were on Mofan's side.
The people from the Fire School had always been arrogant and overbearing. They did not care about the other faculties at all. Today, they were taught a lesson by a transfer student.
The more the people from the other faculties said that, the angrier the people from the Fire School were. They could not let Mofan go so easily.
