Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The dust gradually settled on the last combat stage. The result of the fight had already been determined.
Of course, the final result surprised many people. None of them expected Wu Ling could be defeated. After all, if all eight captains present were judged according to their popularity, Wu Ling would definitely enter the top three. Even so, he was still defeated. The cruel fact made many people exclaim secretly that the competition of this Academy Competition was very intense.
Staring at each other, all the students of the Martial Spiritual Academy were quite depressed. Presumably, Wu Ling’s defeat really demoralized them.
However, they also knew Wu Ling should not be blamed for that. He had already done a good job and even activated the strength of the War God Ape at last, but no one expected Xue Tianhe also had a powerful hidden card.
In the sky, Chief Wu Tianwang of the Martial Spiritual Academy was looking at Xue Tianhe with knitted brows. He couldn’t help snorting coldly and saying, “People of this clan are really obnoxious, meddling in everything.”
It seemed Wu Tianwang was frustrated by Wu Ling’s defeat.
Upon hearing his words, the other four Chiefs said nothing. They also sensed Wu Tianwang’s dissatisfaction. However, they couldn’t deny Xue Tianhe’s qualification in participating in the match; otherwise, the Blood God Clan wouldn’t leave the matter alone.
“Hm, since the quarter-finals are finished, let’s declare the following matches,” Chief Tian Sheng of the Saint Spiritual Academy said with a small smile.
Xue Tianhe had displayed great strength. However, he was really confident in Ji Xuan. Presumably, in this Academy Competition, the Saint Spiritual Academy would win first prize again.
The other four Chiefs also nodded.
Seeing that, Chief Tian Sheng waved his robe sleeve, and his vigorous and firm voice resounded in the sky like thunder. “The quarter-finals are finished. The four strongest teams have entered the semi-finals.
“They will be the real protagonists of this Academy Competition!
“The Saint Spiritual Academy!”
Along with Chief Tian Sheng’s vigorous voice, a dazzling light beam instantly dropped from the sky, illuminating Ji Xuan and his teammates. All eyes were now on them.
“The Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy!”
Another light beam dropped on Mu Chen and his four teammates, creating arcs on them. The audience started cheering thunderously. Of course, the cheers of the students from the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy were the most frantic.
“The Million Phoenix Spiritual Academy!”
A light beam dropped again. Wen Qingxuan was holding her golden war spear with her left hand and resting her right hand on her tiny waist. Her inky long hair cascaded down. Golden armor hugged her curvy and graceful body. The pride of the phoenix could be found in her extremely beautiful face. Stunning beauty radiated from her phoenix-like eyes.
Behind her, Pin’Er, Le’Er and another two girls were as beautiful as flowers and very eye-catching.
“The Blood Spiritual Academy!”
The last light beam dropped on Xue Tianhe and his teammates. Standing in the front, Xue Tianhe folded his arms in front of his chest. His face was quite calm, but his chilly eyes were fixed on Mu Chen.
The four big light beams had attracted the attention of all the onlookers. The four teams were the strongest teams, which couldn’t be denied by anyone.
These teams survived the elimination match which had lasted for half a year. Then in the quarter-finals they defeated their opponents, which were as powerful as they were. Finally, they were standing in this position to be hailed and adored by numerous people.
“The top four teams have finally emerged. Maybe the following matches will be fiercer. I am wondering who could ultimately win the championship.”
“I think the odds for Ji Xuan from the Saint Spiritual Academy are highest. The strength of this guy is really unfathomable.”
“It’s hard to say. Wen Qingxuan from the Million Phoenix Spiritual Academy is also a hard nut to crack. Although her performance in the previous fights was not very dazzling, even Ji Xuan shouldn’t underestimate her strength.”
“You are right. I also occasionally heard of her from our Chief. This Wen Qingxuan is really a tough opponent.”
“Isn’t Mu Chen from the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy a tough opponent? Even Liu Qingyun, who was as powerful as Wu Ling, was defeated by Mu Chen.”
“Don’t forget that Xue Tianhe. As a guy who could defeat Wu Ling, he is also a formidable opponent for everyone.”
“Maybe the champion of this Academy Competition will be the most-contested one in the past century.”
Countless whispers burst out at that moment. These four teams were indeed powerful. However, before the final match, no one could predict which team would be the ultimate winner.
While heaven and earth were inundated with thunderous cheers, the four teams were calmly standing on the four combat stages. In front of countless blazing eyes, all of them were calm and quiet without any visible changes in mood.
Teams which could stand there were definitely the strongest ones among all the spiritual academies. They had powerful mental strength and unshakeable minds.
“I wonder how the following matches are organized,” Shen Cangsheng said seriously while watching the other three teams. All three teams were extremely strong. A tough fight was inevitable.
Mu Chen smiled slightly. “No matter which team will be our next opponent, we’ll just do our best.”
“Anyway, with you and Luo Li, it will be much easier for us,” Li Xuantong also said with a smile. Their team had two cores. One was Mu Chen and the other core was naturally Luo Li.
One of them was in plain sight while the other one was in the shadows. Maybe many people still didn’t know this young girl, who seldom displayed her strength, was indeed a top-notch expert as powerful as the four captains.
Upon hearing Li Xuantong’s words, Mu Chen couldn’t help rolling his eyes. As he was about to say something, suddenly he sensed something. His eyes narrowed a bit. Then he raised his head.
At the same time, Luo Li, Ji Xuan, Wen Qingxuan and Xue Tianhe also sensed something and looked up.
They fixed their eyes on the horizon. Suddenly the space in the sky started to twist violently. A huge object, tens of thousands of feet in size, broke the space and slowly emerged.
Gasp!
Everyone gasped at that huge object which emerged by breaking the space.
It was a bronze mirror, tens of thousands of feet in diameter. The frame of the bronze mirror was full of ancient and obscure mystical patterns. The mirror’s surface was quite dull, as if it were covered by dust, so it was impossible to see any reflection.
Once the bronze mirror emerged, the space was quite chaotic, as if it couldn’t withstand the entry of such a huge object.
The bronze mirror floated quietly in the sky. Its dusty surface gave people the mysterious feeling that it could light up the Great Thousand World.
“That’s…”
Shock was found in Mu Chen’s eyes. He sensed the slight vibration of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar inside his body. Moreover, what surprised him most was the fluctuation of that Immortal Page in his body.
“It is the divine artifact of the Five Great Academies… the Mirror of Judgement.”
Beyond Luo Li’s control, the Luoshen Sword in her hand started to radiate sword aura and hum as if it would break away from her hand to fight that mysterious bronze mirror.
“The Mirror of Judgement?”
Upon hearing this name, everyone was shocked. Mu Chen’s expression was quite complicated. As a matter of fact, the opportunity of meeting Luo Li in the Spiritual Road was given by this Mirror of Judgement. Everyone who could enter the Spiritual Road was selected by the Mirror of Judgement.
“What is the rank of this divine artifact?” Mu Chen looked at Luo Li and asked in a low voice.
“I’m afraid it is even better than the high rank divine artifact,” Luo Li muttered.
Mu Chen gasped again. It was even better than the high rank divine artifact! He didn’t expect that such a powerful artifact, which was even difficult for those clans with profound histories to obtain, could be possessed by the Five Great Academies.
“According to the legend, the Mirror of Judgement is a relic of the primordial period. Its radiance could penetrate the barrier of the world and reach the lower planes… no one can hide from its radiance,” Luo Li said.
“It is said that in the primordial period, the radiance of the Mirror of Judgement could directly destroy the Sovereign level master hands.”
“Is it really so formidable?” Mu Chen had a sudden inspiration. Could he find the whereabouts of his mother with this powerful artifact?
After it flashed in his mind, Mu Chen immediately dismissed the idea. His mother exhausted all her mental efforts to hide him. If he performed detection recklessly, he would be sensed by that mysterious clan. Mu Chen didn’t think he was strong enough to face that mysterious clan now.
“It is just a legend… After the primordial catastrophe, it seems the Mirror of Judgement suffered some damage. Now it shouldn’t be as powerful as it was before,” Luo Li smiled and said.
“I wonder what the Mirror of Judgement could be used for after being summoned by the five Chiefs,” Su Xuan asked with puzzlement.
The Mirror of Judgement didn’t belong to one certain spiritual academy but was controlled by the Five Great Academies simultaneously. It could only be activated by the synchronized actions of the five Chiefs.
“Could it be used for the following semi-finals?” Shen Cangsheng asked in surprise.
“I guess so.” Mu Chen made eye contact with Luo Li. Only this reason could make sense now; otherwise, the Chiefs wouldn’t summon this divine artifact.
While everyone was guessing, Chief Tian Sheng also smiled at the sky. He pointed at the Mirror of Judgement, and his vigorous and strong voice echoed again in the ears of everyone in the space.
“The answer is yes. The semi-finals of this Academy Competition will be activated by the Mirror of Judgement.”
Wow!
Upon hearing that, the space was immediately filled with thunderous uproars. Even Mu Chen and the other contestants were staring at each other with shock in their eyes.
It seemed the semi-finals were becoming more and more interesting.
