Chapter 198: Chapter 167 Xiang Dingqian Goes to Battle Chapter 198: Chapter 167 Xiang Dingqian Goes to Battle In a room of the office building adjacent to the playground, Xia Xuan gazed out the floor-to-ceiling window at her sister, who had just defeated Wen Chenwei in the ring, and a smile involuntarily curled on her lips.
“You’ve improved a lot…
It seems going to Demon Capital might have been the right choice.”
Xia Xuan knew well that the incident with the Quicksand Sect alone wouldn’t bring about such a change in Xia Yue.
It was because she had shed her pride and genuinely wanted to improve her strength.
Or maybe…
she wanted to catch up to someone?
Xia Xuan’s eyes fell on the handsome boy next to Xia Yue and she squinted slightly.
Was he the one who saved Little Yue on Red Sand Flame Island?
“Just like her sister, your younger sister is also extraordinarily talented.” Opposite Xia Yue, a young man with a slight smile began to speak slowly.
The young man had purple short hair, and his face and demeanor were very ordinary.
But in his eyes, there was a faint hint of astounding confidence.
It was a strong confidence in his own strength, built up through countless battles.
“That student using Starlight Power is quite good for his age but still lost to your sister.
Though she is still a bit immature now, after a few years of training at the academy, she should grow to a considerable height.”
Xia Xuan turned back to look at the purple-haired young man in front of her and smiled.
“Thank you, Hou Special Envoy, for thinking so highly of my sister.
It is truly her honor.”
The purple-haired young man smiled and then became serious.

“So have you made up your mind about joining our Sky Patrol Department?”
…
Around the ring.
“Wen Chenwei…
actually lost?!”
Xia Yue’s victory over Wen Chenwei came as a surprise to everyone.
Among the many Demon City students present, quite a few were former Demon No.1 Middle School students.
They all knew very well that Xia Yue had always ranked behind Wen Chenwei in Demon No.1 Middle School.
But after a year, Xia Yue had grown to the point where she could defeat Wen Chenwei?
In the seats of the Demon Academy contestants, Ji Xuan and others felt heavy-hearted.
Originally, even a solo competition with Capitol Capital College had an unpredictable outcome.
Now, they had one person fewer than Capitol Capital College, and it was their core combat power, Wen Chenwei!
Yan Ziyu looked at Xia Yue, who was being carried back to the Demon Capital Academy’s viewing area by Su Yuan, and her expression became more serious.
As someone who had fought Xia Yue many times before, Yan Ziyu could see that the current Xia Yue was different from before.
Not only had her strength grown significantly over the past year, but she also became more flexible and smart in battles.
She was no longer the proud and simple Fire Magic user who relied solely on powerful output to overpower her opponents head-on.
Excellent tactics, decisive strong strikes, and tenacious will at the final stage!
These were the factors that led Xia Yue to ultimate victory, none of which could be missing.
…
“The girl from Demon Capital Academy is quite strong…” said the long-haired boy at Capitol Capital College, quite seriously.
Xiang Dingkun nodded slightly.
“Hmm, but she has completely lost her fighting power.
When you go up to challenge Demon Capital Academy later, they should directly forfeit.
This way, we can ‘bypass’ a round and conserve strength.”
In the eyes of those from Capitol Capital College, Xia Yue defeating Wen Chenwei was naturally a good thing.
And beating Wen Chenwei in such a mutually destructive manner was even better!
In this situation, Capitol Capital College undoubtedly held a huge advantage.
…
The competition continued, and the fifth round began.
The one representing Capitol Capital College was the long-haired young man.
“Capitol, Ji Cheng, challenges Demon Capital Academy.”
Su Yuan stood up directly and said, “For this match, we forfeit.”
No one was surprised.
This was the inevitable result.
Because Xia Yue had won the previous match, the one defending in Demon Capital Academy was still Xia Yue.
So Capitol Capital College would certainly challenge Xia Yue, who had almost completely lost her combat power, allowing them to safely pass a round.
Demon Capital Academy forfeited, eliminating Xia Yue.
It was now the sixth round, Demon Academy’s turn.
“Ji Xuan, what should we do?” Yan Ziyu, the glasses-wearing boy, and the eliminated Yang Xu all looked at Ji Xuan.
Ji Xuan’s choice was crucial for this round.
Should they balance the situation by attacking Capitol Capital College?
Or ensure second place by first eliminating Demon Capital Academy, who also lost two members?
Ji Xuan quickly made his decision.
“Xu Wenshu, you go, challenge Demon Capital Academy.”
“Got it!” The glasses-wearing boy nodded and leapt onto the ring.
“Demon Academy, Xu Wenshu, challenges Demon Capital Academy!”
At Capitol Capital College, the long-haired young man, Ji Cheng, who had just come down from the stage, smiled.
“Demon Academy made a wise choice.”
Xiang Dingkun nodded.
“If it were me, I would choose the same.”
It was a wise choice.
If Demon Academy challenged Capitol Capital College in this match, even if they won, all three teams would still have three members each.
In such a scenario, for Demon Academy, who had lost Wen Chenwei, winning against Capitol Capital College to get first place would still be very difficult.
So, it was better to use their remaining strength against Demon Capital Academy, quickly eliminating them to ensure they secure second place.
At Demon Capital Academy.
Su Yuan turned his head to look at Xiang Dingqian.
“If you want to fight Xiang Dingkun, now is the time to go up.
Defeat him, and you can challenge Capitol Capital College in the next round.”
Xiang Dingqian didn’t hesitate and nodded immediately.
“Got it!”
After speaking, Xiang Dingqian strode boldly onto the ring.
Yang Xu asked in confusion, “This person looks a lot like the leader of Capitol College, Xiang Dingkun.”
