Chapter 267: Despicable Yu Huang
As Yu Huang, who could fly, and Yin Yang, who could turn invisible, the two of them were attacked.
This time, the four academies decided to defeat Yu Huang and Yin Yang first before the five academies competed for points.
When Yu Huang saw the group of players charging at her, the blood in her body suddenly boiled. She licked her lips and immediately mobilized her spiritual power. She wrapped her entire body with spiritual power and started close combat.
In the audience, when Madam Sheng saw this, she stood up with the cat in her arms and shouted at Yu Huang, “Yu Huang! Beat them up!”
As Yu Huang’s loyal fan, Madam Sheng had attended Yu Huang’s support club before. She was a professional at cheering.
Sheng Xiao was shocked by his mother’s roar.
Madam Sheng thought that Sheng Xiao was too calm. She pinched him and said angrily, “Xiao’er, cheer for Yu Huang! If you cheer for her, she will be more motivated.”
Then, Madam Sheng looked at Sheng Xiao with a support stick in her arms.
Sheng Xiao held the support stick and stared at Yu Huang, who was being beaten up by five people. He could not say anything.
Lin Jiansheng saw that Madam Sheng was full of vigor. As her mentor, he couldn’t afford to lose.
Lin Jiansheng stood up as well. He placed his hands in front of his mouth and shouted, “Ah Huang! Fight back! Don’t be afraid. If you kill or cripple them, I’ll take responsibility for it!”
Yu Huang was bemused.
During the compet.i.tion, players could use their spiritual force to s.n.a.t.c.h the ball, but they could not use martial arts. Therefore, everyone could only rely on their spiritual force to fight in close combat.
Yu Huang was quickly surrounded by five opponents. She was originally outnumbered.
However, Yu Huang was a natural fighter. Her delicate body was like a boneless cat. She bent down, placed her hands on the ground, and kicked with both feet.
With a violent force, she kicked the two players opposite her away. Then, she spread her wings and flew into the sky. Standing in the void, Yu Huang suddenly raised her right hand and a Psychic Sphere appeared above her palm.
Seeing that she had summoned her Psychic Sphere, the players all looked wary.
The rules of the compet.i.tion only stated that one could not use cultivation techniques, but it did not say that one could not use Psychic powers! A Level 2 Purifying Spirit Master could use Psychic powers to transform and attack. Yu Huang’s actions were not against the rules.
She was taking advantage of the loophole.
With a thought from Yu Huang, the Psychic Sphere instantly transformed into dozens of vines that flew down from the sky. The vines wrapped around the ankles of every player!
With their ankles tied, the players’ mobility was restricted. For a time, they were busy breaking free from the psychic rope and had no time to s.n.a.t.c.h the basketball.
Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Shu s.n.a.t.c.hed the basketball and transferred it to Lie Gang, who immediately dunk it.
“Divine Realm Academy, 1 point!”
Yu Huang’s eyes were filled with madness. She laughed arrogantly and shouted, “Everyone, hurry up. I can at most stop them for a minute!”
Therefore, during this minute, Divine Realm Academy could score to their heart’s content!
Next, the stadium was occupied by the Divine Realm Academy.
“Divine Realm Academy, three points!”
“Divine Realm Academy, one point!”
“Divine Realm Academy, three points!”
A minute pa.s.sed. Yu Huang’s psychic power was maxed out and the players successfully broke free from her hold.
Dozens of psychic ropes were severed at the same time. Yu Huang suffered a backlash and fell to the ground with a pale face. She clutched her chest as blood trickled out of the corner of her lips.
When they saw Yu Huang land, everyone rushed forward and prepared to gang up on her.
At this moment, Yu Huang raised her hand and shouted, “Yu Huang requests for the compet.i.tion to be temporarily suspended and a subst.i.tute to go on stage!” Yu Huang chose to go on stage and no longer partic.i.p.ated.
According to the compet.i.tion rules, if anyone took the initiative to request to leave the compet.i.tion, then everyone had to stop attacking.
As they watched helplessly as Yu Huang was taken away by Manager Su, the players from the other colleges were so angry that their faces turned red.
“Treacherous!”
“Despicable!”
“Petty!”
Many boys who idolized Yu Huang had lost their admiration for her from the basketball match. She was a despicable person. She would do anything to win!
…
In the end, the Divine Realm Academy took the lead by 22 points and became the champion. The Divine Eagle Academy came in second with a 5-point score, and the Deschamps Academy came in third with a 3-point score.
Other academies got 0 points.
After this match, the rules of the friendly basketball match between the Beast Tamer academies were changed. There was a new rule—
In the arena, no cultivation technique or telekinesis was allowed!
Yu Huang had changed the basketball rules by herself. This was unprecedented.
When the Divine Realm Academy went on stage to receive the award, as a team member, Yu Huang had to follow them to the podium to receive the award. After more than two hours of rest, Yu Huang had already recovered.
She looked radiant as she walked up to the podium.
The empress dowager was in charge of presenting the award.
Jiang Ruixue was wearing an aqua blue fishtail dress. Her long hair was tied up and she wore a pearl necklace on her neck. Although she was dressed simply, she was still beautiful and elegant.
Yin Yang took the medal from Jiang Ruixue and handed it to Xiao Shu and the others for them to touch.
After the award ceremony, the reporter from the Beast Tamer News Agency came to interview them.
The person the reporters were most curious about was none other than Yu Huang, the Duo Cultivator. They rushed up the compet.i.tion stage, surrounded Yu Huang, and asked her questions.
“Yu Huang, everyone thinks that you won unfairly by using psychic power in the compet.i.tion. What do you think?”
Yu Huang said, “The compet.i.tion rules only state that partic.i.p.ating players can’t use cultivation techniques, but they didn’t say that they can’t use psychic power. How can this be considered a violation of the rules? If someone feels that it’s unfair, then he can use psychic power to counterattack me!”
The reporter was speechless.
The reporter said with a sheepish expression, “Yu Huang, currently, you’re the only Beast Tamer and Purifying Spirit Master dual cultivator in the Holy Spirit Continent. You understand that the other players are unable to counterattack you with telekinesis. Are you deliberately saying this to attract hatred?”
Yu Huang chuckled and said, “The organizers clearly knew that I was a duo cultivator, but they didn’t change the compet.i.tion schedule. Isn’t this tacit agreement that I can use psychic power?”
Yu Huang glanced at the organizer and said with a smile, “If you have any questions, you can interview the organizer and ask why they did it.”
The reporters saw that Yu Huang was eloquent and had quick reflexes. She didn’t fall for their trap at all. They immediately carried their microphones away and interviewed the others.
Seeing that Yu Huang had made the reporters leave, Yin Rong smiled and patted her shoulder while praising her. “As expected of a veteran of the entertainment industry.”
When Yu Huang was a celebrity, those reporters were much more harsh than these people.
Yu Huang saw Madam Sheng waving at her from the audience and said to Yin Rong, “Yin Rong, go back first. I have something to do.”
Yin Rong naturally noticed Madam Sheng as well.
To be honest, Yin Rong was a little shocked to see Madam Sheng personally attend the scene to cheer on Yu Huang. From the looks of it, the people from Yufu City were very satisfied with Yu Huang. If nothing unexpected happened, Yu Huang would most likely become Yufu City’s hostess.
Yin Rong gave Yu Huang a deep look and said, “Madam Sheng is actually very difficult to get along with, but I think she treats you very well. Yu Huang, I wish you and Professor Sheng happiness.”
“Thank you.”
After saying goodbye to Xiao Shu and the others, Yu Huang realized that Mrs. Sheng and the others had left. Only Sheng Xiao stayed.
Sheng Xiao waved at Yu Huang at the bottom of the staircase. Yu Huang ran over and looked up at him. “Did you see my father?”
Sheng Xiao nodded with a complicated expression. “Yes, my parents are inviting your father and mentor for dinner tonight. We have to go too.”
“Let’s go back to the hotel first. You should take a shower and change your clothes before returning to Yufu City with me.” The original plan was for the parents to see each other again after the Cong Wolf Mystic Realm compet.i.tion, but it seemed that they would have to push it forward.
When she heard that there was going to be a gathering tonight, Yu Huang was still a little nervous. On the way back to the hotel, she was already thinking about what clothes to wear tonight.
Sheng Xiao stared at Yu Huang’s jersey. His gaze turned gloomy. No one knew what he was thinking.
They returned to the hotel in silence. Yu Huang was about to take a shower with a towel in her arms when Sheng Xiao suddenly hugged her waist from behind and threw her onto the bed.
The long jersey was lifted, revealing her slender waist.
Sheng Xiao knelt by the bed and kissed her waist. His eyes were red.
G.o.d knew, he’d endured the whole trip. He’d wanted to do this long before they got in the car.
Yu Huang covered her face with a pillow. Her voice came from under the pillow. “I smell like sweat. Don’t you mind?”
Sheng Xiao looked up at her. “You have no idea how s.e.xy you look in a jersey.”
Yu Huang could not understand Sheng Xiao at all.
She felt that the jersey was fat and big. When she wore it, she looked like a child who had stolen an adult’s shirt. How was it beautiful? She looked s.e.xy in revealing clothes.
Yu Huang could not understand why Sheng Xiao thought she looked good in a jersey. She sighed and said, “Sigh, you young people have strange tastes.”
Sheng Xiao’s expression darkened.
