A gust of wind swept by, and a massive fist instantly enlarged in Gong Shaoqing's pupils.
It was too late to dodge, and Gong Shaoqing was filled with helplessness. This match was about to end.
However, the fist stopped in front of Gong Shaoqing's forehead, and at the same time, Nangong Aochen's voice resounded.
"It's over."
Nangong Aochen slowly retracted his fist, his expression still calm and serious.
For him, there was nothing worth celebrating about defeating Gong Shaoqing. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was his opponent in the academy exchange competition, he wouldn't have bothered fighting Gong Shaoqing at all.
Gong Shaoqing's expression was also indifferent. He understood Nangong Aochen's arrogance, and in fact, he had no qualifications to be Nangong Aochen's opponent.
However, he wouldn't be disheartened because of that. On the contrary, it would be his motivation.
If you want your opponent to respect you, you first need to have the qualifications to make them take you seriously.
"Nangong Aochen of Lingyin Academy wins!"
The referee decisively announced the result, and a cheer erupted throughout the stands. Nangong Aochen was their pride!
At this moment, Nangong Aochen defeated his opponent, and they were pleasantly surprised.
Gong Shaoqing slowly walked back to his team, while Nangong Aochen remained standing on the high platform because he was up next for the next match.
"Well done!"
Cui Haoyan directly patted Gong Shaoqing's chest and expressed his admiration.
In fact, he wouldn't have been able to last this long under Nangong Aochen's hands. Gong Shaoqing's defeat was still honorable.
Xia Zhiqing and the others also smiled. They had no regrets reaching this point.
"Nangong Aochen is very powerful. Even though I gave it my all, he didn't even take it seriously. You need to be extra careful," Gong Shaoqing's eyes were filled with concern. Baili Hongzhuang had a similar mindset as him.
Although he felt that the possibility was very slim, fighting with all one's might on the arena had always been a good quality. How could one know their true strength without giving it their all?
He had already given his all, but the gap in strength between the two was just too big. So, even if he gave it his all, it would be useless. However, the gap between Baili Hongzhuang and Nangong Aochen would be smaller.
Baili Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "I understand."
Her exquisite and beautiful face was filled with solemnity and seriousness. She had never underestimated Nangong Aochen. Nangong Aochen must have many hidden cards.
However, she would also give it her all.
Compared to Nangong Aochen, Canglan Academy needed victory more.
She didn't know the final outcome of this match, but at least she wouldn't let Nangong Aochen win easily.
Jian Qingqiu's face was filled with satisfaction. "Nangong Aochen is undoubtedly the most outstanding student in our Lingyin Academy in recent years, truly one in a million."
The qualifying rounds and the alchemy competition a few days ago had left him feeling unhappy, but it wasn't until today, with Nangong Aochen's overwhelming victory, that a smile appeared on his face.
Regardless of how Canglan Academy wanted to change the situation, the final victor would still be Lingyin Academy.
Although the results of the alchemy competition had some significance, it was completely different from the competition between cultivators.
Nangong Ouyi also showed a satisfied smile after seeing Nangong Aochen's performance. Nangong Aochen was his most satisfying prince. This kind of means not only demonstrated his magnanimity but also won people's hearts. He was very satisfied.
