Chapter 128: The top ten from the Fire Academy appear
Lu Xuan's calm voice sounded again, "Next batch."
Wei Rong didn't want to let Lu Xuan go on. As it was, those people in the top 100 would never be a match for Lu Xuan.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to discuss it with Lu Xuan. He said, "Lu Xuan, why don't we just stop here? How about I put you in the top 10?"
The students from the Fire Academy in the audience had looks of reluctance on their faces, even though many of them knew that Lu Xuan was a high-level mage.
This decision was not wrong, but they still found it hard to believe when it came from the usually stern director's mouth.
Hearing this, Lu Xuan shook his head. How could it be possible for him to stop now? One has to know that the higher the ranking, the longer it will take to practice in the Three-Step Tower.
He has offended everyone in the Fire Academy from top to bottom. How can he stop just for a top 10 position? He will not do anything that will harm his interests.
"My goal is to be number one. I will not stop challenging myself until I achieve this goal."
Even if Wei Rong gave him the first place directly, he would still need to think about it. After all, not everyone would be convinced if he became the first place directly.
As for rankings, he thinks it is better to prove it with strength. This will save him a lot of trouble in the future. It won't waste much time for him to continue challenging himself.
As soon as Lu Xuan's words of refusal came out, everyone present was shocked. The other party was determined to break through the rankings of the Fire Academy.
Lu Xuan didn't want to buy into the Fire Academy director's face at all. The other party was determined to trample the entire Fire Academy under his feet.
Endless anger arose in their hearts for a moment, but they could do nothing facing Lu Xuan because the gap was too big.
Wei Rong had obviously expected Lu Xuan's rejection. After all, this was really unfair to the other party. The gap between what the first and tenth place could get was still very obvious.
In his eyes, it was not easy for Lu Xuan to deal with some students who were still mid-level mages. The mid-level and high-level mages were simply not on the same level.
But if Lu Xuan were to continue, the students in his Fire Academy would become the laughing stock of the entire main campus.
Seeing that Wei Rong didn't react at all, Lu Xuan probably knew what the other party was thinking. He didn't want to fight twice, thinking a short pain is worse than a long one.
He showed a kind smile and suggested in a considerate way: "How about this? I need two more battles to get to the first place. Why not let the top 10 people come up and compete with me."
He directly suggested that the top 10 come up, which would not only prevent the Fire Academy from being hit twice, but also allow him to finish faster, which was a good thing that killed two birds with one stone.
Wei Rong obviously didn't agree with this happening. In the face of absolute strength, it would be useless no matter who the students from the Fire Academy went up.
"this."
Before Wei Rong could finish his words, a figure walked out from the crowd below the ring and interrupted him.
"Director Wei Rong, since Lu Xuan has said so, if our Fire Department doesn't dare to fight, won't this make people from other departments laugh at us?"
When all the fire students saw the newcomer, many of them showed a hint of joy on their faces, and the people under the arena made way for him to come in.
Wei Rong saw the person coming over and said helplessly: "I know what you mean. Although you are the first, a high-level player against a mid-level player has no chance."
The other party didn't take this to heart. As the chief of the Fire Academy, he couldn't avoid this battle anyway.
He would not allow such a situation as admitting defeat, so he might as well drag everyone to fight. It would not be shameful to lose to a high-level mage. Lu Xuan glanced at the person who came over. The other person looked like an old student, not Dongfang Lie. The time of his challenge was much earlier than in the original book, so it was normal that he was not one of the original group of people.
"Since the other party has agreed, let's get started quickly. The rest of you can come up as well."
Wei Rong knew that the stalemate was not a solution, so he had no choice but to agree to this competition that he was bound to lose.
Soon, the top ten students from the Fire Academy walked onto the stage one after another, knowing Lu Xuan's strength.
A group of people stared at Lu Xuan opposite them as if they were facing a great enemy. The highest among them was only at the intermediate level three, and facing a high-level magician like Lu Xuan, they had no choice but to be cautious.
On the other hand, Lu Xuan had a casual look on his face. He slowly said, "You don't have to be so nervous. When the competition starts, you guys make the first move and I'll let you guys take one move."
Although he wanted to get the first place, he decided to give Huo Yuan some face and give the other party a chance to make a move and show his strength.
This will let people from other departments know the strength of the Fire Academy, and let people know that it is not that the people in the Fire Academy are weak, but that they are too strong.
The other people on the stage did not respond and did not relax their vigilance in their eyes because of Lu Xuan's words.
Wei Rong's face darkened when he heard this. "This Lu Xuan is really too much. Where did he come from? I must go check it out after the competition is over."
Bai Mei was not as angry as Wei Rong. He thought it was just an internal fight and there was no need to be angry.
Dean Xiao came to the referee's seat at some point and couldn't help but cough when he heard this.
In order to participate in the exchange student program in the imperial capital, he blocked some of the information about Lu Xuan in the Qing campus. In addition, the other party has always been low-key, so he did not tell the Fire Academy about the matter afterwards. He did not expect that he would end up betraying the Fire Academy.
"Dean Xiao."
Wei Rong and Bai Mei both stood up hurriedly. Even though the Fire Hospital was not under the jurisdiction of Dean Xiao, he was the dean after all and they still had to give him some face.
"Lu Xuan knows his limits. Besides, he is from the Fire Academy. What are you complaining about?" Dean Xiao said, adjusting his glasses.
The competition has already begun. If he stops them now, neither Lu Xuan nor the people on the stage will be able to stop.
Upon hearing this, Wei Rong was stunned, and then he immediately realized that although Lu Xuan was a little arrogant, he was from the Fire Academy after all. No matter whether they won or lost this competition, they would definitely not lose.
After thinking it through, he was no longer as angry as before. All the meat was rotting in one pot, so there was no need to be afraid of losing face.
Wei Rong announced directly: "The competition begins!"
There are ten people on the stage. They all major in fire and have reached the third level and have spirit seeds.
Rings of fire spread out in all directions, star maps were quickly constructed and gathered on their wrists, the violent energy in their hands seemed to be pouring out in the next second, they did not hold back at all and brought out all their strength.
Lu Xuan didn't make any movement on the opposite side. His eyes were very calm as he watched the performance on the opposite side quietly. He didn't take the attack of a group of mid-level mages seriously.
Dean Xiao saw this scene. He had experience with this kind of thing. The stars of the water constellation passed through the air.
