119: Retreat in defeat
Lin Sinuo let out a muffled grunt and looked at Laquis Kunaf.
"Isn't this going a bit too far?!"
Laquis Kunaf laughed heartily, shrugged his shoulders, and said helplessly, "Mr. Lin, isn't it perfectly normal for there to be injuries during a duel?"
"Do you expect them to be protected in a greenhouse forever!?"
"Look on the bright side. Do you really think ten billion dragon coins are that easy to obtain!?"
Lin Sinuo cursed him as despicable in his heart.
"Mr. Lin, if you think it's unfair, you are more than welcome to send out those junior and senior Students. Perhaps that way, you can secure your victory sooner!"
Thick smoke continued to spread.
Laquis Kunaf was in an excellent mood at this moment.
The purpose of coming here this time was to give the Dragon Country a warning!
And by the way... to lure Su Feng out and kill him directly!
As for the other Students, if direct elimination wasn't guaranteed, he would inflict maximum damage upon them.
The Dragon Country must pay the price it deserves!
Lin Sinuo's forehead was covered in black lines.
The aura of those three was clearly from the military.
Professionals selected by the military would constantly use incantations, formations, or items to stimulate their potential from a young age.
This could advance the time of their class advancement, and the combat ability they obtained was not something ordinary adventurers could compare to.
But... none of these people would live past one hundred!
Sixty or seventy years old was already considered a ripe old age!
Moreover, they could reach the peak of their strength within a few years, and after that, there would be almost no further growth.
It was equivalent to overdrafting their life potential in advance to exchange for strength far exceeding their peers.
This was the new plan formulated by Eagle Sauce Country within the last hundred years.
Lin Sinuo had also heard of it occasionally.
"Xing Wushuang, Li Dabai, you two go find the previous top scorers of the college entrance exam."
"If this continues, I'm afraid our Dragon Abyss Academy will suffer heavy losses."
Lin Sinuo stared intently at Barbara Kukula's back, which was covered in dense scars.
The rest was the muscle definition of Qiu Jian.
"Mu Xin, go check on the Students' injuries. If you can, treat them."
After making arrangements, Lin Sinuo finally returned to his seat.
"Mr. Lin, do you really think your Dragon Country's strength is enough to have won first place in the Nations Hegemony?"
"You surely don't know that Sakura Island's Rui Chuan Gang Ban burned his life force to escape from the secret realm, only to return there and become a stray dog!"
Laquis Kunaf's tone was calm and slow, forming a stark contrast to when he first arrived.
He even looked completely relaxed.
Keeping this pace, it would be possible to cripple hundreds of people from the Dragon Country in a day.
I wonder... who these lucky ones will be!?
"Let me tell you the truth..."
Laquis Kunaf told Lin Sinuo all the information that Sakura Island had provided them.
"Absurd!"
"Without evidence, can you just arbitrarily determine the crimes of the Dragon Country based on the words of one person!?"
Lin Sinuo's chest heaved slightly as he loosened his elegant tie.
"Mr. Lin, you are a smart man!"
"Sometimes... who really cares about the truth?"
Laquis Kunaf looked at the Dragon Country Student who had just been kicked off the high platform and mocked contemptuously, "Tsk tsk... Mr. Lin, decades ago, when I led my team, you led the Dragon Country Students and caused us great trouble."
"Now, you have gone from being a Student to a director, but my thoughts have never changed."
"As long as you agree to join Eagle Sauce Country and serve us, we will still accept you!"
Lin Sinuo sneered.
Did they want him to be a traitor?!
Ridiculous!
"You might have miscalculated!"
Just as Lin Sinuo was about to continue, Mu Xin instantly appeared beside him and said anxiously, "Director Lin, Wang Tianba's leg bone has been shattered!"
"Even if it heals, he will only be able to use fifty percent of its original function in the future, and furthermore, he won't be able to engage in intense combat..."
Lin Sinuo stood up immediately.
"What!?"
"Laquis Kunaf, is this what you call academic exchange!?"
Lin Sinuo's eyes were spitting fire.
At this moment, he no longer cared about his status.
To hell with being cultured!
These were his Students!
They were the future of the Dragon Country!
And they were crippled by someone right in front of him?!
How could he still be the dean then?!
"Mr. Lin, anger will make you lose your reason."
"My terms are very generous and advantageous; for every person defeated, I can offer a reward of ten billion dragon coins."
Laquis Kunaf spread his hands and said helplessly, "It's perfectly normal for there to be some injuries in a duel, isn't it!?"
"You!"
Lin Sinuo was momentarily speechless.
"Why haven't Xing Wushuang and Li Dabai returned yet!?"
Just as Lin Sinuo was worrying, Xing Wushuang entered from the door with a few people.
"Kong Ye, Lei Wan, Li Qing, Wan Xue'er..."
Seeing these people, Lin Sinuo felt a little relieved.
The battle situation shouldn't be so frustrating now!
Twenty-three people had failed so far, five of whom were injured.
If this continued, the sharp spirit they had honed all this time would be gone.
"Teacher Xing Wushuang, leave everything to me!"
Kong Ye leaped directly onto the high platform, and looking at the woman opposite who was even sturdier than himself, he couldn't help but feel a jolt in his heart.
"How can this person have such a terrifying and sharp aura?!"
"Damn it!"
"For ten billion dragon coins, I'll risk it all!"
Kong Ye immediately gathered magic power in his hands and struck towards Barbara Kukula.
Bang!
Upon contact, Kong Ye knew there was a gap between them.
The main thing was that Barbara Kukula had a suicidal fighting style.
She actually took his skill head-on and came straight for his heart.
Kong Ye had no choice but to dodge immediately.
"That was close!"
"This person is even more vicious than a magical beast!"
How could Kong Ye dare to lower his guard now?
He directly took out a protective item and shielded his body.
Although powerful items were not allowed in the duel, simple shields like this were not a problem.
"Damn it!"
"It's one thing to be suppressed by Su Feng, but a hideous hag like you also wants to defeat me!?"
Kong Ye stomped his foot and charged at Barbara Kukula again.
...
Abyss.
Sixteenth Floor.
【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for leveling up!】

"Finally reached level 458. Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be any problems today!"
Su Feng looked at Baras beside him; this guy's body had already been strengthened.
Having absorbed so much abyssal demonic energy, he had truly recovered to the strength of a Sixth Tier Demon.
"Master, all the demonic energy on this floor has been absorbed!"
Su Feng waved his hand.
"Let's go to the next floor!"
With Baras's guidance, Su Feng was now like a fish in water in the Abyss.
