“La.s.s, Kid Mu, this is Lu Xing.”
After the flying spiritual beast carriage set off, Du He introduced Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan to Lu Xing, who was sitting alone in the corner.
He immediately said to Lu Xing, “Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan are the new students who entered the academy this year.”
After a pause, Du He continued, “Right, la.s.s, didn’t you prepare a lot of things for Nie Wu and the others? Give one to Lu Xing! This kid is very rich. He doesn’t lack Spirit Stones.”
Du He didn’t want to ask at first. After all, the Lu family was an alchemy family, so what good things would they not have?
However, based on the principle of treating everyone equally, he still mentioned it. As for whether Lu Xing accepted it or not, that was his choice.
Hearing Du He say that Lu Xing was rich, the word “fat fish” instantly appeared in Lu Zijia’s mind.
With the principle of “fat fish” coming to her door, it would be a waste not to take advantage of them. Lu Zijia was about to take out all kinds of inscriptions with a smile when she heard Lu Xing reject her without hesitation.
“No, thank you for your kindness, Dean.”
The student felt that there was no need. As the dean, Du He certainly couldn’t force him.
“In that case, forget it.”
Du He was afraid that Lu Zijia would feel embarra.s.sed, so he couldn’t help looking at her apologetically.
He originally wanted Lu Xing’s inscription skills to be good, and the various inscriptions she made were also very powerful. On the other hand, Lu Xing had always been modest and cautious, so he probably wouldn’t reject her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xing rejected her.
Lu Zijia smiled back at Du He, indicating that she didn’t take it to heart.
For a moment, the Flying Spirit Beast Carriage, which was quite s.p.a.cious, was a bit too quiet.
Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan, on the other hand, closed their eyes and rested, as if they weren’t affected by the atmosphere in the spirit beast car.
After an unknown period of time, Lu Xing suddenly said to Du He, “Dean, I heard that Junior Sister Lu is an alchemist and Junior Brother Mu is an array master. Why would they represent the Martial Arts Department in the compet.i.tion? If I’m not wrong, Junior Sister Lu and Junior Brother Mu are only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm, right? As far as I know, five students of the Martial Arts Department entered the Golden Core realm a year ago. Fellow Taoist Nie and Fellow Taoist Xu are two of them. The Four Continents Compet.i.tion concerns the spot to enter the Primordial Mystic
Realm. The dean should prioritize the overall situation.”
After what Lu Xing said, he was obviously indicating that Du He chose Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan to represent the Martial Arts Department for selfish reasons and that it wasn’t fair.
In fact, Du He’s selfishness might even cause Hongtian Academy to lose a lot of spots.
Du He was an old man who had been living happily for two hundred years. How could he not hear the obvious hint in Lu Xing’s words?
However, he wasn’t angry.
“Lu Xing, do you know what you’re talking about?” Before Du He spoke, Instructor Zhao scolded Lu Xing with a straight face.
Lu Xing wasn’t afraid. He crossed his arms and looked straight at Instructor Liang, saying clearly, “I certainly know what I’m talking about. I just don’t know if the dean is letting down the other students of the Martial Arts Department by being so unfair?”
Even though there were no rewards for the Four Continents Compet.i.tion and their opponents might even take the opportunity to ambush them, many students still hoped to partic.i.p.ate.
That was because once they won, they would be famous and honored. That was something many cultivators couldn’t get even if they begged for it their entire lives.
So, in Lu Xing’s opinion, Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan s.n.a.t.c.hed someone else’s opportunity, and Du He, the dean, was an accomplice!
