Chapter 428: Incompliant

Edited by Aelryinth

“Last challenger, ranked one hundred and seventy-third, Zhou Tong!” shouted Wei Rong after gathering his resolve.

Without anyone noticing, there was only a single challenger remaining. Even Wei Rong was slightly terrified of this transfer student now. Although the challengers took turns fighting him instead of battling against him at the same time, the number of people who he had defeated was enough to stack up into a wall.

When the students of the Fire School learned that the last challenger was ranked higher than two hundred, it felt like a glimpse of hope to them.

Even if Mo Fan managed to cast a Spell in the end, there was no way he would win the battle against an expert ranked in the top two hundred. It turned out that the heavens were still treating them fairly!

“This Zhou Tong is in luck, I should have put my name down too. Maybe I’d would have been the last challenger instead.”

“There’s nothing to be happy about. The transfer student had defeated more than two hundred students from our Fire School. I wouldn’t dare to say I’m from the Fire School anymore.”

“It’s still better than all of us getting wiped out!”

“True, that!”

The one hundred and seventy-third ranked Zhou Tong was everyone’s last hope.

Zhou Tong was a shorty, with an underbite. His appearance was fairly atrocious, yet his tiny eyes had a slightly arrogant look to them

He glanced at Mo Fan and chuckled like a rat before he said to Mo Fan, “I thought I was going to miss the chance to achieve the one hundredth rank since I registered way too late. What a surprise, you managed to last until now.”

Zhou Tong seemed to be talking with Mo Fan in an indifferent manner. The truth was, his deceitful eyes were occasionally looking at someone else.

That person was Liu Qian!

As a matter of fact, the two were merely associates with one another, yet when Liu Qian found out that Zhou Tong’s turn was at the very end, he had asked the last challenger to do him a favor.

Liu Qian wanted Mo Fan to be severely injured, serious enough for him to tie him to a bed for a few months.

If he succeeded, Liu Qian the moneybag would reward him greatly.

Liu Qian was definitely brooding about the transfer student. In Zhou Tong’s opinion, he only needed to do a fairly simple task for a great reward, since the transfer student was so worn out on the surface that he most likely could not even cast another Spell.

Mo Fan stood there with a slightly pale face.

The battles had been going on for too long. His energy was finally depleted. Besides that, his injuries were getting worse. It was fairly impressive that he had managed to hold on until now.

“Mr. Wei Rong, please go ahead with the countdown. Don’t give him too much time to rest,” urged Zhou Tong, as if he could not wait to claim his victory.

Wei Rong nodded and announced the beginning of the battle.

As soon as he finished the announcement, a voice suddenly interrupted, with words directed at Wei Rong.

“That’s enough for today,” The crowd was unaware that Dean Xiao had also arrived at the dueling ground, who spoke out in time to stop the duel.

“Dean Xiao.”

“Dean.”

Some of the teachers politely offered their seats. Meanwhile, even though the Fire School was not under Dean Xiao’s control, he was still the institute’s dean, thus it was reasonable to respect him.

“Mo Fan, you’re coming down, too. There’s no need to make this into a ‘the fish dies or the net splits’ situation. It won’t bring any good to your development here at the Fire School,” Dean Xiao said to Mo Fan.

“Aye, you’re right,” Mo Fan nodded.

“Apologize to Mr. Wei Rong, and to your senior brothers and sisters in the Fire School. After all, you’re a freshman here...” Dean Xiao was obviously here to take control of the situation.

“Err...fine,” Mo Fan was not bullheaded. Since Dean Xiao had made his point clear, it was indeed unwise to continue on with the duel.

Mo Fan faced Wei Rong and apologized with his head lowered, before obeying Dean Xiao’s order by apologizing to the students of the Fire School.

The demon king seemed fairly sincere, yet the apology was neither painful nor itching for him. The students of the Fire School were dumbfounded.

Wasn’t he supposed to apologize to them one at a time? Did Dean Xiao seriously clear the guy’s offense by asking him to make such a simple apology?

“Dean Xiao, if we don’t let him apologize to them one by one, how is the Fire School going to retain its reputation in the Pearl Institute?” said Wei Rong softly.

“Oh Wei Rong, if the duel were to take place, this Zhou Tong won’t stand a chance against Mo Fan,” whispered Dean Xiao to Wei Rong.

Mr. Gu Han nodded. As a matter of fact, he already tried to give Wei Rong a hint.

“He no longer has the energy to fight. How could Zhou Tong possibly lose the duel?” said Wei Rong with his brows raised and a slight hint of anger.

Dean Xiao did not want too many people to know about Mo Fan’s true talent. After all, some things were better to be left secret as they started preparing for the World College Tournament. Exposing too much would not bring any advantage to them. As such, he whispered a few words into Wei Rong’s ears.

Wei Rong was not an idiot too. Even though Dean Xiao had vaguely touched upon it, he immediately broke out in cold sweat!

Wei Rong soon understood why Dean Xiao had come in person to take control of the situation... He was actually helping them to preserve the Fire School’s reputation!

It went without saying that Dean Xiao knew Mo Fan was a maniac who had four Elements. If the duel were to continue on, the stubborn Mo Fan would surely use his Shadow Element. There was no way Zhou Tong would have any chance against him. Considering that Mo Fan was going to represent their school in the World College Tournament, Dean Xiao had no intention of exposing Mo Fan’s fourth Element, since the World College Tournament was extremely important to their nation!

“If that’s the case, the challenges for today have officially come to an end,” Wei Rong did not dare to ask any further.

The few sentences that Dean Xiao had uttered already revealed enough information to him. Wei Rong did not dare to put the reputation of his Fire School at stake. Since Mo Fan had already apologized to him and the students, everyone was given a way out.

“We can’t let it end like this!”

“Let Zhou Tong fight him!”

“Yeah, it’s either the majority in the Fire School are trash just like he said, or he apologizes to every single one of us!”

The students of the Fire School were unsatisfied!

They demanded that Mo Fan apologize singly, as the humiliation they had suffered today was great. Otherwise, how could they possibly retain their face?

“Wasn’t he acting smug just then? Yes, he might be strong, and many of us admit that we are no match against him. Yet, that doesn’t mean we’ll let him trample our dignity and leave it just like that,” said one of the losers.

Mo Fan was initially the public enemy, and it was obvious that he was completely worn out and was obviously going to lose the duel. Most people had no intention of letting him go.

“Hey, those who are from the Fire School, enough with your shamelessness. I would feel too ashamed to even show my temper after over two hundred students from my school were defeated in a row. Are you seriously asking him to apologize to every one of you still? Don’t you feel embarrassed?” scolded Ai Tutu from within the crowd, who had come here early to watch the duels.

“That’s right, maybe he’s kind enough to forfeit the duel as he doesn’t want to put the Fire School in a worse spot, and you guys are still dropping stones on the man who has fallen into a well. Didn’t you hear that Dean Xiao and your Elemental Director have agreed to call it off? Meanwhile, you peeps who are jealous of the glory he has earned today are trying to protect your hilarious loss of dignity!” Many of the students from the other Elements were standing on Mo Fan’s side.

The people of the Fire School had always been proud and arrogant, not showing any respect to the other Elements. It gladdened their hearts to see the transfer student teaching the Fire School a lesson.

The students of the Fire School were even more infuriated after hearing those comments. They were even more determined not to let Mo Fan go so easily.

His apology to the whole school was nowhere enough. Many people were waiting for the scornful guy to lower his head and apologize to them one by one!
