Chapter 385: Disdain

[BANG!!]

Huo Ling Long suddenly smashed the table in front of her into pieces with her palm, revealing slight violence on her beautiful face.

“You want to be beaten, right?” She raised an eyebrow and watched the Headmaster of the Alchemy School as she moved her fist, “I, Huo Ling Long, have always done things fairly and upright. I don’t like to use inappropriate means like you damned old things in your Schools. The Grade 4 Talismans are all refined by Lou girl herself.”

Seeing Huo Ling Long want to use her fists again, the Alchemy School’s Headmaster remembered the embarrassing incident of when he was beaten by her and couldn’t get out of bed for three days last time and his face darkened instantly.

“Huo Ling Long, we’re still in a competition right now, don’t be so arrogant.”

“Lao’niang is arrogant, what can you do to me?” Huo Ling Long narrowed her almond-shaped eyes.

Seeing this, the Sect Leader hurriedly said: “Junior Sister Huo, don’t be agitated. It won’t affect your image well if you fight in front of so many pupils.”

“Humph, this time, I’ll give the Sect Leader some face. If any of you dare to continue to slander the pupils of the Talisman School, lao’niang definitely won’t let it go easily.” Huo Ling Long huffed coldly and retrieved her fist as she sat back to her place.

“…” The other Headmasters couldn’t stop shuddering. This female tyrant dragon was simply too arrogant.

The Sect Leader could only smile bitterly when he received the looks of grievances from the Headmasters of the several other Sects.

What a joke, he didn’t want to go provoke this female tyrant dragon.

After Lou Mu Yan stepped down from the battle stage, she naturally discovered this scene with her Mental Energy. Her lips rose with interest. So Headmaster even had the nickname of ‘female tyrant dragon’ in the Sect.

But whoever had the bigger fist had the right to speak—this timeless truth applied everywhere.

The next opponent Lou Mu Yan drew was Xue Lan’er—who knew if someone deliberately put them together.

On the battle platform, Xue Lan’er could be considered a beauty in the Array School, but compared with Lou Mu Yan who was peerlessly beautiful that could cause the downfall of a kingdom, Xue Lan’er lost beneath her.

“I used to think Xue Lan’er was also quite pretty before, but why is it that compared to Lou Mu Yan, she just fell right into the dust.” A pupil of the Array School sighed.

Lou Mu Yan was not only the kind of beauty with exquisite facial features, but her beauty was the sublimation of her temperament.

She was as light as the wind and clouds, like a female celestial above the Nine Heavens; from time to time, she revealed a kind of boldness and laziness, but she also made one feel gallant, refreshing, and wild.

If the two temperaments were placed on others, one may feel odd, but they were vividly expressed by Lou Mu Yan. No matter where she went, her unique temperament was very eye-catching and attractive.

Of course, this was also under the premise of strength. If Lou Mu Yan was just a Sword Master below Sword King, then she might have long become a plaything for other powerhouses.

“I wonder if Senior Sister Xue will be able to win Lou Mu Yan or not.” Although another person also agreed that Lou Mu Yan was more beautiful, but Xue Lan’er was their Array School’s after all, so they naturally hoped she could win.

“Senior Sister Xue and Lou Mu Yan are both at Peak-Phase Sword Sovereign, but Lou Mu Yan has Grade 4 Talismans, so she’s more likely to win.”

“Actually, Senior Sister Xue also has hidden means. In the end, it’s uncertain who will win or lose.”

“That’s true, Senior Sister Xue is an elite of our Array School. Don’t enhance other people’s spirit and diminish our prestige.”

The pupils of the Talisman School watched the battle platform with anticipation and cheered for Lou Mu Yan.

For many years, the Talisman School had been at the bottom of the Inner Pupils assessment competition. This time, with Lou Mu Yan and Zi Che Shi strongly entering the final day of the competition, it greatly enhanced their faces and they hoped they would go even further.

“Lou Mu Yan, use whatever means you have.” Xue Lan’er also heard the discussions below. She was originally very confident in her beauty, but she couldn’t help but feel jealous in front of Lou Mu Yan.

She secretly hated her and planned to defeat Lou Mu Yan in this battle.

“You’re worthy of my means?” Lou Mu Yan raised an eyebrow with a bit of disdain in her expression.

She rarely showed this sort of expression to anyone, but she really hated Xue Lan’er, a villain who liked to talk behind her back. She didn’t bother using too many tricks on her.

“Humph, then today I’ll let you see if I’m worthy or not.” Xue Lan’er had a hideous look on her face. She quickly took out an Array Flag and started to set up an Array.

While setting up the Array, she sacrificed three defensive-type Saint Tools and a Saint Treasure to block in front of her, in order to prevent Lou Mu Yan from smashing her Grade 4 Talismans.

Lou Mu Yan chuckled: “You don’t need to guard against me with such big fanfare. I’ll use talismans to smash others, but I think it’s too wasteful to use them to smash you.”

“You push people too much.” Xue Lan’er looked at Lou Mu Yan grimly, her eyes filled with killing intent.

“I’ll use your own words against you, use whatever means you have.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t want to waste too much time with Xue Lan’er.

The conversations and actions of the two were always dominated by Lou Mu Yan, while Xue Lan’er was passive, making many pupils feel that Lou Mu Yan was too arrogant.

Who knew how long her arrogance would last—after all, since Xue Lan’er was raised with importance in the Outer Sect, she naturally had her own strength, and definitely wouldn’t be weak.

Xue Lan’er kept forming the Array while Lou Mu Yan folded her arms indifferently and watched.

Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s calmness and composure, even the several Headmasters felt that she was being careless.

Xue Lan’er’s Array was quickly constructed, and the entire battle platform was suddenly attacked by cold air. Four giant pythons composed of Ice Elemental Energy emerged from the four directions, roaring and flying into the sky.

“Grade 3 highest level Killing Array. Xue Lan’er can actually set up such a high-level Killing Array. Her talent is amazing!” A pupil couldn’t help but exclaim.

The other pupils of the Array School didn’t expect Xue Lan’er to have hidden her strength. With her talent, there was basically no suspense in becoming a Grade 4 Array Master.

“This killing Array can even kill an Advanced-Phase Sword Venerable. Lou Mu Yan’s in danger.”

“I heard that Lou Mu Yan is already a Grade 5 Array Master. It’s not certain who wins or loses. Can’t you see how calm she is.”

“Pfft, Grade 5 Array Master? You believe in such a rumour?” An elite of the Array School said: “The genius Senior Brother in the Inner Sect is only a Grade 5 Array Master, Lou Mu Yan’s a liar.”

“I also don’t believe it. I’m guessing that her Array talent isn’t even as stronger as Senior Sister Xue. I wonder what she’s so arrogant about. How embarrassing it’d be to be defeated in a bit.”

“Just watch, I’m also more willing to believe that Senior Sister Xue can win.”

Four ice pythons roared and fell straight atop Lou Mu Yan’s head. They opened their mouth and spewed out a cold mist. The cold mist also contained countless icicles, and as long as one was struck, they would instantly become a sieve.

Lou Mu Yan smiled playfully, stretched out a hand and pointed it at the sky. A huge flame appeared out of thin air and instantly swallowed the four mighty ice pythons.

She then took out a jade stone and tossed it casually. The jade stone formed an arc and fell on a corner of Xue Lan’er’s Array.

“Break!”

As soon as her voice fell, one watched as the originally intimidating Grade 3 Killing Array instantly fell apart.

“PU!” As soon as the Array broke, Xue Lan’er couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

She looked up at Lou Mu Yan in horror and unwillingness. She couldn’t accept that Lou Mu Yan broke her Array in just one move.

It took her three years of hard work to build this Array successfully. She even felt that it was perfect and had no weak points. How could it be broken like this?
