Hong Zhao sighed: "I'm afraid that only those hidden direct disciples in Famous Sword Academy can defeat Zuo Qing, none of us ordinary students can defeat him."

This Di Chen was so much stronger than him, he basically did not have the strength to fight him, if it was him, he might be able to defeat Zuo Qing.

However, Hong Zhao did not say that. He could tell that Di Chen did not like to fight, and he looked at Di Chen with a strange gaze. This fellow could actually read books, which made people unable to see through him.

The moment Zuo Qing returned to the courtyard, he saw Ping Song standing in the courtyard, dragging his face to look at him. Zuo Qing knew that he could not hide the matter regarding his battle with Hong Zhao from Ping Song.

Ping Song reprimanded: "Did you go and fight with that Hong Zhao alone?"

Zuo Qing said with a little fear: "Everyone in the Famous Sword Academy says that Hongwei is powerful. Actually, I just want to see how powerful he is."

Ping Song thought for a while and asked: "And the result?"

Zuo Qing laughed complacently when he thought about how badly Hong Zhao had lost, and said: "I originally thought he was very strong, but I didn't expect that his strength was too weak. I destroyed the martial soul."

"What?" Ping Song was startled, and immediately became furious: "I told you before that even if you were to fight, you shouldn't go overboard, after all this is the Famous Sword Academy, and the person who came here was a guest. You previously destroyed a student's martial soul, and now you have destroyed a grand martial soul, how do you want me to explain to them?"

Zuo Qing muttered in disapproval: "Battles are inherently dangerous, who asked him to be so weak, I wasn't careful, and I can't blame me."

Hearing that Zuo Qing did not know how to repent, Ping Song was so angry that he wanted to slap him in the face.

At this time, Gu Yun Sword advised: "You know Zuo Qing's character as well, he will always go all out when fighting, and has no sense of propriety. Furthermore, during this period of time, all of the students in Famous Sword Academy have said that only those big shots can defeat Zuo Qing, so it's not his fault that Zuo Qing destroyed his martial soul."

He looked at Zuo Qing again, and reprimanded him: "But you are indeed going too far this time, defeating him is fine, why destroy his martial soul."

In the end, Zuo Qing did not dare to go against his teacher, and said in a low voice: "Zuo Qing knows his wrongs, but I also gave them three Great Recovery Pills; this is enough to heal their injuries."

Hearing these words, Ping Song's anger had finally subsided a bit, and he looked at Zuo Qing: "During this period of time, you should just obediently stay here, and don't go anywhere else, and don't go too far in the future either. There's always someone outside the world, and there's always someone outside the world.

Zuo Qing made an "oh" sound, and did not seem to refute Ping Song, but in his heart, he was rather disapproving, thinking that if he could not even defeat Hong Zhao, who else could defeat him in the Famous Sword Academy, but of course, he could not say these words out loud, and took the chance to return to his room.

How could Ping Song not understand Zuo Qing's thoughts? He sighed slightly, thinking that Zuo Qing would definitely suffer a loss sooner or later, but he didn't listen to his persuasion, so Ping Song had no other choice.

This time, the fight between Zuo Qing and Hong Zhao was not official, not only did Zuo Qing initiate and cause trouble, he had also severely injured Hong Zhao, so Ping Song had to think of a way to explain this to Dongfang Yue, so he went to visit him.

"Dean Ping Song, what's the rush?" Dongfang Yue seemed to be very anxious and doubtful.

Ping Song said awkwardly: "It's like this, just now when Zuo Qing went to find Hongwei for a duel, he accidentally destroyed Hongwei's martial soul again. This time, I specifically came to apologize to Brother Dongfang."

Dongfang Yue was shocked, he did not expect that he would not even be able to defeat Zuo Qing.'s power seemed to be far beyond his imagination, but he did not seem to care, and laughed: "Young people's impulses are such that injuries are unavoidable.

Now, all of the students of the Famous Sword Academy said that only Hong Zhao could defeat Dongfang Yue, but when Dongfang Yue heard that Hong Zhao was defeated, he did not care at all, which made him feel that it was strange. However, after thinking for a while, he seemed to understand that the strongest people in the Famous Sword Academy were actually the direct disciples, so he would naturally not care if Hong Zhao was defeated, just like how Li Yuan previously did not plan to find out the reason why she died.

"Oh yeah," Dongfang Yue changed the topic of the conversation: "Previously, President Zhao Fusheng sent a message, he still has some matters to attend to outside and might not return in the near future, so he decided to let me handle this competition, I think we should make a decision as soon as possible, what do you think?"

Ping Song thought that Zhao Fusheng did not really put the Clear Water Academy in his eyes, but he did not care much, and laughed: "Alright, in my opinion, it will be the day after tomorrow."

"Alright," Dongfang Yue laughed, the people from the Clear Water Academy had already been in the Famous Sword Academy for a few days and had no intention of leaving, it seemed like they would not leave until they start a fair battle, where Dongfang Yue prepared to hold this battle between the two schools as soon as possible.

"Then I won't stay any longer." Ping Song's main purpose for coming here was still to arrange the competition between the two academies as soon as possible. Since he had already achieved his goal, he naturally wouldn't stay here any longer.

Dongfang Yue sent Ping Song away, and only after he left, Dongfang Yue frowned, although he did not care about Hong Zhao winning or losing, but the fact that Hong Zhao losing so miserably had surprised him, how powerful was Zuo Qing, he was afraid that there were many people stronger than Zuo Qing in Clear Water Academy.

Not long after Ping Song left, Nian Bai went back to Dongfang Yue's room, where Dongfang Yue told him about Zuo Qing defeating Hong Zhao.

Nian Bai was surprised hearing that. "It looks like none of the normal disciples are Zuo Qing's match, I think we should let the direct disciples come out to fight, otherwise, we might lose miserably."

"No," Dongfang Yue rejected on the spot, "We must keep the identities of those direct disciples confidential. They are the key to our victory in this battle against the three major sects."

Niu Bai frowned. "But the people from the Clear Water Academy know that we still have a group of hidden secret disciples. It doesn't seem necessary to keep these disciples' identities."

Dongfang Yue said calmly: "In any case, we cannot let this batch of disciples reveal our identities, and even more so, we cannot let them reveal our strength. The reason the Famous Sword Academy can become one of the three great academies is because we need to nurture this group of secret disciples.

"Since it's like this, then let Liu Jingjing accept the challenge. This Liu Jingjing's identity cannot be kept a secret, and her strength is even stronger than Hong Zhao. She might be able to defeat Zuo Qing."

Back then, everyone had personally witnessed Xun Qin taking in Liu Jingjing as her direct disciple. Everyone in the academy knew about her strength and identity, and it wasn't a secret.

Dongfang Yue did not think of Liu Jingjing at the beginning, but after thinking about it, he still rejected him. Liu Jingjing had already trained with Xun Qin for a period of time, and her strength had increased quite a bit, and during this period of time, she would be able to break through the Martial King Realm very soon, and at this time, she would be coming out to accept the challenge and disrupt her cultivation.

Nian Bai sighed secretly. It seemed that he would lose face in tomorrow's competition of Famous Sword Academy s.

Today was the day of the official competition between the Famous Sword Academy and the Clear Water Academy, and the plaza was filled with students from the Famous Sword Academy. From Lifestealer Realm to Martial King, there were several people standing in the middle, and those were the students of the Clear Water Academy.

"Yesterday, I think Hong Zhao was defeated by Zuo Qing. He was the strongest out of all of our Lifestealer Realm, looks like none of us in Famous Sword Academy could win against him."

Yeah, I never thought that Zuo Qing would be this strong, I wonder if Teacher Dongfang Yue would send someone up on stage today.

The Clear Water Academy had already been in the Famous Sword Academy for several days, and during this time, both sides had already experienced several informal battles. The result was that the Famous Sword Academy suffered a crushing defeat, and Hong Zhao and Zuo Qing had also engaged in a battle yesterday, but in the end, even the student who everyone in the Famous Sword Academy thought she was the most had suffered a crushing defeat, and even her martial soul had been destroyed.

Di Chen was standing right in the middle of them, and upon hearing their discussion, he was slightly speechless, thinking to himself, how powerful is Zuo Qing, to actually be able to cause all of these people to become like this.

"Sigh." Bai Qian let out a long sigh: "It's hard to say about the other realms' competition this time, but it seems like our Famous Sword Academy will lose face in this competition to steal our lives."

Di Chen asked doubtfully, "Didn't they say that there are still some direct disciples in the academy?"

Bai Qian laughed bitterly: "These new disciples are the academy's secret students, the academy won't let them out so easily."

Di Chen said with a strange expression: "Could it be that they would rather lose this round?"

Bai Qian said: "The competition between the three great academies is the most important. This kind of competition is at most a probing between the two sects, it's not a big deal."

Di Chen suddenly realized that the competition this time round would probably cause the Famous Sword Academy to lose a lot of face, at least in the Lifestealer Realm Realm.

Seated at the very front of the plaza was a row of teachers, led by Ping Song and Dongfang Yue.

Dongfang Yue looked at Ping Song and laughed: "How about we begin?"

Ping Song smiled and nodded, then looked at Zuo Qing, signalling him to step out. Although Zuo Qing had defeated the one with the strongest aura in the Lifestealer Realm, this competition would still start from the Lifestealer Realm.

Zuo Qing walked to the very center, first bowing to Ping Song and Dongfang Yue, then looking at the people from the Famous Sword Academy, he shouted out loud. "I wonder which senior brother would dare to challenge us?"

Hong Zhao had lost to Zuo Qing before, and no one was willing to come out now. This Zuo Qing's attacks were too ruthless, if they were to be careless, the martial soul would be destroyed by him.
