"Surrender? Do we need your surrender?"
"We played by the rules, but you played dirty. Now you talk about surrendering? You're truly bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If you have the guts, fight us fair and square!"
"Teacher Su, I think there's no need for our Peach Garden Academy to participate in the Soul Master Competition anymore. The organizers do whatever they want; there's no fairness to speak of."
Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Dugu Yan, and other Peach Garden Academy students couldn't help but step onto the stage at this moment, tugging at Teacher Su's sleeve, all protecting Teacher Su, attempting to separate him from Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong.
This woman was truly too shameless, no less than Jade Little Dog!
She actually took advantage of the bone-touching age assessment to get intimate with Teacher Su!
We haven't even touched Teacher Su's body so carefully!
And she even surrendered? We still have anger bottled up! We must fight back!
Darn it, darn it!
A hint of confusion appeared in Shui Yue'er's misty eyes, and she swallowed: "What 'ness'? Fairness? If I also get to touch Teacher Su, then there will be fairness! Hehe~ *slurp*~"
"Hmm?"
Bibi Dong glanced at Ning Rongrong and the others, exuding a natural deterrent, but this deterrent immediately dissipated when it reached Su Ran's vicinity.
Su Ran said calmly, "The girls are right. What I despise most is insidious plotting."
"Your Supreme Pontiff Palace arbitrarily changed the competition venue but trapped my students, preventing them from participating, simply to easily eliminate them and make them a stepping stone for your Spirit Hall team, isn't that right?"
"Since the rules can be easily changed, then I also propose two options. First, I will represent Peach Garden Academy and participate in the remaining matches, and no surrendering without a fight will be allowed."
"Second, the quarterfinals will be replayed, with all teams drawing lots fairly, without any human interference, letting nature take its course."
Su Ran's voice was calm, but everyone in the arena could hear him.
The teachers from Plant Academy were the first to stand up in support:
"Since this competition involves foul play, I agree with Teacher Su's proposal for a quarterfinals rematch. Otherwise, the Soul Master Competition will lose its fairness. Our Plant Academy shares the same view as Peach Garden Academy, and we will no longer participate in the Soul Master Competition in the future."
Without Su Ran's guidance, Plant Academy would have almost certainly not made it to the semifinals. Although Su Ran took three of their excellent students, he also brought great honor to Plant Academy.
Moreover, at this moment, Su Ran's face was revealed from under the mask, and even the team leader of Plant Academy was captivated, never having seen such a handsome man, wishing they could talk and discuss the Dao with him, spending long, quiet nights together~
All the women present felt their hearts flutter, their emotions stirred. However, the young man's powerful strength was evident, and only now did everyone somewhat recover from his captivating appearance, remembering the nine shocking spirit rings on him when he first appeared, their eyes becoming both loving and respectful.
This is the Prince Charming we women have always dreamed of!
His peerless appearance and extraordinary strength, his very existence, surpassed the understanding of all Spirit Masters!
"Good, as long as it's something Teacher Su desires, this Supreme Pontiff agrees."
Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong took a deep breath, her ample chest rising high, seemingly wanting to display her alluring, curvaceous figure before Su Ran:
"This time, I listened to slander and made a wrong judgment. The Supreme Pontiff Palace has wronged Peach Garden Academy. I will offer a ten-thousand-year Spirit Bone and one hundred thousand gold coins as compensation. On behalf of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, I sincerely apologize to Peach Garden Academy and ask for the forgiveness of Peach Garden Academy's teachers and students."
A jaw-dropping scene unfolded: the dignified Supreme Pontiff herself secretly tugged at her robes, revealing more of her ample cleavage, and bowed slightly to Su Ran in apology.
Ning Rongrong, standing beside Su Ran, quickly covered Teacher Su's eyes, her cheeks puffed out:
"Don't look, don't look, Teacher Su, don't look!"
"Teacher Su, don't fall for her trick, this woman is so bad!"
How does she have so many ways to seduce people? Should we learn a few tricks from her?
"If the quarterfinals are replayed, then Sister Bing'er and Sister Yue'er's teams also have a chance to advance?"
"Teacher Su, I knew you wouldn't forget me and my sister. Love you~"
Shui Yue'er wished she could jump into Teacher Su's arms and hang there, but the 'fierce' glares from her senior sisters made her abandon this action. She could only blow kisses to Teacher Su from a distance:
Mwah~ mwah~
...
Half an hour later.
All the teams returned to the Douhun Arena of the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Fortunately, the eliminated teams from the quarterfinals had not yet left Spirit City and were urgently recalled.
The Supreme Pontiff Palace gave each team five thousand gold coins as compensation and an apology.
Additionally, extra rewards were given for the competition: the gold coin rewards for the champions, runners-up, and third-place teams were doubled, and Spirit Hall honorary badges were awarded. Originally, only the runners-up and third-place teams would receive competition awards, but these were now extended to the top eight teams in decreasing order of ranking, to mitigate the impact of the competition changes.
The Supreme Pontiff personally apologizing was already a matter of great astonishment to everyone.
What exactly made the usually arrogant Supreme Pontiff humble herself and become so gentle?
Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong had been in the dark room for over twenty years, and now, a light had suddenly appeared.
Naturally, her mindset was rapidly changing.
How could others understand?
Understand, of course, they understood.
When the other members of Tianshui Academy and Plant Academy entered the arena, their gazes swept over the Peach Garden Academy waiting area.
Snow Dance, Qiu Ruoshui, Gu Qingbo, and the others' eyes nearly popped out. Several team members and teachers frantically questioned Water Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Mu Yunzhu:
"Who is that man from Peach Garden Academy?"
"Is he also a disciple of Teacher Su Ran?"
"So Peach Garden Academy was hiding such a handsome male disciple? Captains, did you already know? Is that why you were so eager to follow Teacher Su Ran to learn?"
"You're hogging him! Oh my goodness! Peach Garden Academy has such a handsome and refined classmate, and you didn't tell us!"
"It would be great if I could snatch him to be my boyfriend. Does he have a girlfriend? It doesn't matter, I can accept it even if he has one, he's too handsome!"
The captains of the two academies, Water Bing'er and Yao Zi, darkened their expressions:
"What classmate? That's our Teacher Su — Su Ran."
"What? Teacher Su?!"
All the girls looked at each other, utterly astonished.
...
"Quarterfinals rematch."
"This time's randomly drawn bye teams: Plant Academy, Spirit Hall Academy."
Without the obstruction from Spirit Hall, the results of the rematch draw quickly came out.
When the bye teams and match order were announced, only the Star Luo Royal Academy team on the opposite side looked very displeased.
Because the first match of the rematch was: Peach Garden Academy VS Star Luo Royal Academy's seeded team!
"Please, both teams' students, come to the stage and announce your names!"
The host read, but his eyes occasionally darted towards Su Ran, the teacher from Peach Garden Academy.
By now, the progress of the competition was no longer the most important thing in everyone's eyes.
Instead, Su Ran's presence, every move, drew attention. Just standing there made people involuntarily look twice.
When the Peach Garden Academy and Star Luo Royal Academy teams entered the stage.
On a tall building outside the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Qian Renxue, dressed in a golden dress, showed a look of regret in her eyes:
"Sigh~"
What a pity, too much of a pity.
She had even specifically brought in two Titled Douluo.
Based on her understanding of Bibi Dong, that crazy woman should have put up a big fight.
At that time, she would bring the Titled Douluo to save the day, a beauty saving Teacher Su, moving Teacher Su for a lifetime, becoming an irreplaceable angelic disciple in Teacher Su's heart.
She could proudly say to Teacher Su, "With me here, no one will dare bully Teacher Su!"
Wouldn't that charm Teacher Su to death!
This was truly a perfect plan!
However, that woman actually backed down.
No, she did want a big fight.
But she wanted to pull Teacher Su onto the bed for a big fight!
But how could that be allowed?
Teacher Su, he's mine!
