Absolute Resonance

Chapter 0889: All Worthless

Chapter 0889: All Worthless


The crowd erupted as soon as Lu Jinguang admitted his defeat. Most of them stared at the worldly beauty in the arena with surprise and amazement.


It was not rare to see a Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College student defeat a stronger opponent. After all, the students here were all gifted individuals gathered from different regions all over the divine continent. In another sense, it had even more stringent selection criteria than those found in the Heavenly Emperor powers.


Moreover, the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College was one of the founders of the Academic Federation, so their foundation was naturally solid. If any of their students were placed outside, they would surely possess this ability to defeat opponents of higher tiers. However... this was in comparison to those outside the college. If it was against an opponent from the college, it would no longer be an easy feat.


In particular, the Heavenly Star Hall was made of the strongest individuals in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College. It held the true experts of the school, and it was even more challenging to enter it. After all, who was not a heavenly genius here?


As such, many of them were truly stunned by Jiang Qing"e"s victory.


They watched with complex gazes. From now on, Jiang Qing"e would move from the lower hall into the upper hall of the Heavenly Star Hall. This was an insane pace of progression.


At the same time, the faces of the gifted students on the elevated platform changed when they witnessed what had just happened. From the previous battle, it was clear just how much talent and potential Junior Jiang possessed. It seemed like the peaceful days in the upper hall would begin to change once she entered.


With her exceptional apt.i.tude, they knew that she would not be satisfied with staying at the ninety-sixth seat for long.


Back in the arena, Jiang Qing"e thanked Lu Jinguang for the match before she turned around to make her departure.


She was about to leave the bustling arena when someone jumped down from the elevated platform and appeared in front of Jiang Qing"e in a flash.


This was none other than Wei Chonglou, the guy who had spoken to Lu Jinguang earlier.


His fiery hair was really conspicuous. With his tall and straight build, he exuded an air of dominance, and many junior girls amongst the spectators watched in excitement.


After all, he was one of the top ten students in this prestigious ancient college, meaning he was one of the most talented students in the entire school.


Wei Chonglou cupped his hands together and greeted Jiang Qing"e with a smile. "Congratulations on entering the upper hall, Junior Jiang."


Jiang Qing"e took a look at him and asked indifferently, "Senior Wei, do you need something from me?"


He nodded and replied then with a hearty laughter, "Since you"ve been promoted to the upper hall now, you made it just in time for the upcoming training exercise in the Wild Spirit Plains. If you don"t mind, we can form a team for it. I don"t have much of an edge, but I am experienced. I"ve partic.i.p.ated in it multiple times, and my team usually returns with bountiful rewards."


He was very straightforward. Without hiding anything, he expressed his thoughts out in public.


Anyone could tell that he was clearly interested in Jiang Qing"e. He was making use of this chance to get closer to her. However, they could not deny that this was an attractive offer that was hard for anyone to turn down.


Many of the male students could only watch Jiang Qing"e’s charming and beautiful face with stomachs full of jealousy. There was finally a new beauty in the college, but this senior had already set his eyes on her.


Nonetheless, they did not dare to show any signs of dissatisfaction despite their envy. After all, there was no doubt about Wei Chonglou’s strength.


As the crowd watched on, Jiang Qing"e"s face remained calm. She did not appear to be moved by his offer at all. She simply shook her head and replied, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Wei. However, I prefer to work alone."


Despite getting rejected by her in public, Wei Chonglou"s face did not change either, nor did he pester her about it. With the same warm and gentle smile, he responded, "No worries, Junior Jiang. If you ever need help, feel free to reach out to me. Although I am not the highest ranked student, I"ll surely help you to the best of my ability."


He then continued in an earnest tone, "By the way, you"ve not reached the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier yet. If you need help with training or sparring in the future, I"ll always be available for you. We can both improve ourselves that way."


This display of his demeanor and frankness had once again won the hearts of many female students among the spectators. They felt that Jiang Qing"e was being arrogant. Senior Wei Chonglou had already lowered himself for her, yet she was unwilling to accept him.


It was like Jiang Qing"e was completely disinterested in the things that they treasured. At the same time, many of the male students sighed secretly. Wei Chonglou was really good at this. With his looks and capabilities, they felt that the newly promoted Senior Jiang would fall for him sooner or later.


As the students were having those thoughts, Jiang Qing"e"s eyes did not waver at all. She looked at Wei Chonglou directly. No doubt, he was considered the cream of the crop in all aspects. He was definitely one of the top talents in the younger generation. Perhaps due to the difference in their experience, he was even more charismatic than Gong Shenjun.


Sadly, none of this was enough to move her heart.


She had come to the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College for cultivation. She just wanted to reach the Duke Stage as fast as possible so that she could set off and look for Li Luo. She had no interest in all the other boring stuff at all.


Nonetheless, Wei Chonglou was pretty happy with it as he had looked into Jiang Qing"e’s mysterious, golden eyes. After all this effort, he had finally gotten this beauty to take notice of him.


"Senior Wei…" Jiang Qing"e started in her calm voice.


"How may I help you, Junior Jiang?" Wei Chonglou replied with a smile.


"I already have a fiance."


When he heard these words, the smile on his face froze for a moment.


The chatter in the surroundings paused abruptly, and everyone turned and looked at Jiang Qing"e. They all stared at her with looks of astonishment.


None of them had expected such sudden news to come from her mouth.


Wei Chonglou froze for a few seconds before he regained control with his strong heart and said with a smile, "Is this an excuse you came up with so that I"ll not bother you? In that case, I am deeply apologetic about it." In response, Jiang Qing"e shook her head slowly. Her calm but serious eyes took away the smile on Wei Chonglou"s face.


In the end, he pondered for a while and said, "Junior Jiang, it does not matter whether your words are true or not. I will not give up. Besides... if I remember correctly, you"re from an outer divine continent, right? Does that mean your so-called fiance is from the outer divine continent too?"


"You"re right. We are both from the outer divine continent. But it doesn"t matter to me, because in my eyes, every other guy in the world is..."


She paused for a moment, then she took a look around the arena. To have made it here, everyone was clearly exceptionally outstanding. Some of them had even made a name for themselves in the inner divine continent.


In the end, she went on to finish her sentence in an indifferent tone.


"Worthless."


Following this, she did not bother to look at Wei Chonglou’s twisted face or the bustling chatter of the crowd. She took her steps deliberately, walked past Wei Chonglou, and headed out of the arena.


She could tell that the spectators were getting noisier on her way out. Without a doubt, they were clearly affected by her words.


Seeing this reaction, her red lips curled up slightly.


“Li Luo, I"ve planted quite a number of seeds of discord for you. If you don"t want to get a beating from the rabble in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College, please work harder in the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li.


“But if you really can"t handle it... there"s still me.”
