75: Chapter 75 This is the Alliance's Top Secret
Early the next morning.
Yue Yun and the other two went to find Pan Xuan.
Pan Xuan looked at the three of them with a scrutinizing gaze and called them out one by one: "Yue Yun, why did you withdraw from the competition?"
"Teacher, I was forced to withdraw."
Yue Yun shrugged helplessly: "Professor Qi Yao and Yan Xun pressured the Organizing Committee to revoke my eligibility."
Pan Xuan's eyes sharpened.
He hadn't expected them to resort to such underhanded tactics outside the competition.
Having failed to stop Yue Yun from participating in the Team Competition and seeing them win the championship, even the most shameless person should have given up.
As it turned out, they had even less of a bottom line than he had imagined.
It seems I'll have to pay them a visit!
Pan Xuan couldn't help but feel his hands itching for action.
He turned to look at Xu Qingfang: "You just said you're not going to today's competition. Give me a valid reason."
Xu Qingfang gave a sheepish smile.
"The most valuable opponents were all encountered in the Team Competition. I have a clear understanding of my own strength now, so there's no need to participate in the Individual Competition."
"Stupid."
Pan Xuan naturally saw through Xu Qingfang's thoughts and looked at him somewhat speechlessly, commenting flatly.
If Xu Qingfang withdrew because he felt the injustice done to Yue Yun, then what was the point of Yue Yun and Mo Yu trying to keep him out of it?
How could good brothers drag each other down?
This isn't loyalty; it's stupidity.
However, Pan Xuan felt a bit relieved in his heart.
Finally, it was Mo Yu's turn.
Mo Yu had already become alert even before Pan Xuan spoke.
He beat him to the punch, speaking flatteringly: "Teacher, I was cheering for those two yesterday and went to the hospital to visit Su Su in the evening. I didn't do anything else."
Pan Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised upon hearing this.
He was very skeptical about it.
"My dear student, it's hard for me to believe your words!"
"Teacher, you're breaking my heart!"
Mo Yu beat his chest in mock agony.
Pan Xuan became even more suspicious seeing this.
His gaze shifted between Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun, finally landing on Mo Yu, his eyes deep as an abyss.
Pan Xuan took a deep breath to prepare himself: "Speak, what trouble have you three caused this time that brought you to me?"
"Teacher, what do I have to do with the Secret Realm?"
Yue Yun pointed at himself, expressing his confusion.
Pan Xuan countered: "What relationship do you have with the Secret Realm?"
"None."
"Exactly, none."
Pan Xuan spread his hands, then his tone suddenly shifted: "How did you know it was related to the Secret Realm? I don't think I've mentioned it."
Because it involved secrets, Pan Xuan had been vague.
Therefore, Yue Yun's source of information was worth considering.
Yue Yun hadn't expected Pan Xuan's reaction to be so strong. He looked at Mo Yu and Xu Qingfang, and the three youngsters exchanged glances.
"Teacher, it's like this..."
In the end, Mo Yu didn't hide anything from Pan Xuan.
He and Yue Yun explained everything that had happened last night, which made Xu Qingfang green with envy and gave Pan Xuan a massive headache.
"You two..."
Pan Xuan somewhat regretted giving Mo Yu time off.
His temples throbbed uncontrollably: "The confidentiality Rank regarding the Secret Realm is very high, especially this aspect, which is the Alliance's top secret. You're not yet qualified to know.
You don't need to worry about being targeted by others. People like en own who only have a partial understanding are rare, and those who truly know won't associate you with this.
What happened last night was too dangerous. Don't ever do it again!"
Pausing, Pan Xuan sternly warned the three of them.
The three youngsters responded repeatedly, nodding like chickens pecking at grain.
As the saying goes, scattered they are like stars, but together they are a mess.
When these three rascals got together, they were bound to cause trouble for Pan Xuan, adding unnecessary stress to his career.
Pan Xuan thought back to the strength of Professor Qi Yao and the others, realizing that four Four-Star Beast Tamers had been tied up by two little kids.
"A bunch of useless gluttons!"
He couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
After Pan Xuan left, the three youngsters stayed in the hotel, bored.
Xu Qingfang suggested: "Why don't we go visit Su Su?"
Yue Yun was doing weighted push-ups.
He diverted some attention to ask: "What's actually wrong with Su Lixia's leg? I forgot to ask her before."
According to current medical standards...
Fractures and concussions are not serious; even if one's entire body were nearly cooked, they could recover quickly, and there are even Pet Beasts with extraordinary powers that can provide healing.
Why was Su Lixia's leg showing no signs of improvement?
Xu Qingfang explained: "Su Su encountered an Ice-type Pet Beast evolving in the Secret Realm. She wanted her Ice Crystal Sparrow to observe, but she got too close and accidentally touched the Extreme Cold Ice Breath released during the evolution.
The Extreme Cold Ice Breath froze her foot. It must be slowly thawed through special care; otherwise, it would have to be amputated."
Not to mention that one's body is a gift from one's parents...
Things on the body are naturally better if they are original.
Su Lixia had been in a wheelchair for nearly an entire semester just to protect her leg until it could be thawed.
Yue Yun understood after hearing the explanation.
He agreed with the suggestion: "Then shall we go see her?"
However, Mo Yu stopped them.
"No need." He took out his phone to play with. "I visited her yesterday, and she said she's having surgery today, so it's too late for us to go now."
After a pause, he showed the route on his phone.
"I suggest we go on a road trip!"
"Deal!"
Xu Qingfang immediately nodded in agreement with Mo Yu's suggestion.
For him, as long as he didn't stay in the hotel until he grew mold, he was happy to go anywhere with his two best buds.
Clearly, Mo Yu and Yue Yun felt the same way.
Xu Qingfang asked: "Should we tell Pan Zi?"
"Why tell him? Pack your things and let's go!"
"Now?"
"Right now!"
Mo Yu and Xu Qingfang jumped off their beds and quickly stuffed everything into their backpacks, finishing their packing.
Yue Yun moved the coffee table off his back, stuffed his backpack with a change of clothes, put his charger in his pocket, and set off.
"GO GO GO, let's head out!"
The three youngsters' exit and checkout were done in one smooth motion.
They went to the underground garage, found the weathered wuling divine car, tore off the impound seal as if they hadn't seen it, and started the engine to blast out of the garage.
The passionate car DJ music thundered.
"Is it okay that our car was impounded?"
"There's a bit of trouble."
Mo Yu kept a constant eye on the road conditions while instructing Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun: "Take advantage of the heavy traffic to get out of the city quickly, then find a quiet spot to cover the license plate."
Xu Qingfang and Yue Yun looked at each other.
Is there really a need to cover a fake license plate?
But Mo Yu must have his reasons for doing so.
When the wuling divine car slowly drove out of the city and stopped on a road with sparse traffic, Yue Yun and Xu Qingfang got out to work.
They took out sunshades with the word 'VIP' on them and focused on covering the front and rear license plates of the wuling divine car.
They didn't notice someone approaching at all.
The approaching middle-aged man had a resolute face; having held a high position for years, he possessed a natural authority without being angry, yet his gaze was surprisingly kind.
He took in Yue Yun's actions of covering the license plate and couldn't help but tease with a smile: "Is it covered tightly?"
"Covered tightly!"
Yue Yun replied subconsciously.
