Chapter 566: Inter-academy Tournament (56)

The moment the result was announced, tears trickled down Yun Qi’s cheeks. Finally, the day of victory had come after he had experienced the decline and misery of warlocks.

Warlocks could finally present themselves in front of the public!

Shen Yanxiao, his student, had fulfilled his long-cherished wish. He had nothing that he would ever want!

The weather-stricken old man was grateful that the heavens had blessed him and did not end the warlocks’ profession. Heaven had sent Shen Yanxiao to him and his fellow warlocks!

He was convinced that Shen Yanxiao would lead any surviving warlocks back to the light!

They would no longer be afraid of others’ contemptuous looks, and they would not need to hide or conceal themselves. They would have a world of their own!

Her burden finally relieved, Shen Yanxiao kicked the little rock under her feet.

Qi Xia had recovered his composure. He smiled faintly as he stared so hard at Shen Yanxiao that she felt scared.

“Congratulations. You have fulfilled your wish.”

“Can you not be sarcastic?” Shen Yanxiao trembled.

“…” Qi Xia’s mouth twitched.

“Alright! You’ve finally finished your match, and you’ve managed to scare Ah Yu and me. Xia, you can be pretty terrifying when you lose your mind.” Yang Xi stepped to them with a laugh and put his arm around Qi Xia. He finally felt like he could breathe again.

“I cannot control myself in front of Xiaoxiao.”

“…” Shen Yanxiao was speechless. Could he not use those flirty words with her?

The old man that chaired the compet.i.tion went to them with a strange expression on his face. He held a golden chip in his hand, and he stepped to Shen Yanxiao with his face pulled.

“Congratulations on winning the tournament. This is an Academy Chip that the Emperor has granted to the winner. You’ll have to go to the capital in one month. The Emperor will issue the paperwork for the piece of territory in Forsaken Land himself. You have two months to get to the Forsaken Land; the offer will expire if you are late.” The old man did not sound friendly. He must not have wanted to see a warlock emerge as a victor. However, rules were rules. He had to give the chip to Shen Yanxiao no matter how unwilling he was.

The old man’s face darkened when he gave the chip to Shen Yanxiao, and he left right after that. He did not give Shen Yanxiao any chance for questions.

Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows, but she did not mind it.

It was none of her business what other people thought of her. She only needed to do what she had to do.

Her eyes glinted with a smile as she held the chip in her hand.

Flame Gra.s.s, Moling Plant, Skeleton Flower, and the right to land in the Forsaken Land. Soon, she would be able to carry out Xiu’s plan to breed demons!

“Capital? Great, I can swing by home.” Shen Yanxiao stroked her chin. Since she had won the compet.i.tion, she did not plan to go back to Saint Laurent Academy. There was nothing much for her to learn there. She had also heard the conversation between Ouyang Huanyu and that black-robed man. Her ident.i.ty had been exposed, so Ouyang Huanyu would surely take action against her.

She would not fall for that old hypocrite’s traps!

“Why don’t we go back with you? After all, nothing is going on at the academy for now,” Qi Xia proposed.

“Suit yourself.” Shen Yanxiao put the chip into her interspatial ring. She was thinking about something else.

She was to leave the Saint Laurent Academy, and she was worried about how Ouyang Huanyu would treat Yun Qi.
