Even though the people of Qingxiao Nation were aware that their actions were somewhat excessive, they were silent at this moment. After all, the emperor was present, and they didn't dare to say anything unless they wanted to risk their own lives.
Huan Chu You furrowed his eyebrows slightly and said, "The battles involving contract beasts have never been restricted to a specific location. This statement doesn't make much sense."
Usually, in battles involving contract beasts, since the range of the cultivators' fights was quite extensive, efforts were made to ensure that the battles of the demonic beasts did not affect the cultivators themselves. It was quite common for battles to take place outside the martial arts stage.
Jian Qingqiu had already understood the situation after noticing the expressions of the royal family members. No matter what, they had to ensure that South Palace Aochen emerged victorious in this battle.
As the Crown Prince of Qingxiao Nation, South Palace Aochen's identity was different from that of ordinary cultivators. No matter what, he had to win today's battle.
Because he represented the Crown Prince of Qingxiao Nation!
The reason South Palace Ouyi sent South Palace Aochen to participate in the competition was to let everyone know about his strength.
If South Palace Aochen failed today, it would be a huge blow to his reputation.
Lingyin Academy was affiliated with the Qingxiao Nation's royal family, so Jian Qingqiu couldn't go against South Palace Ouyi's orders. She quickly regained her composed expression.
"Huan Lao, the battles between cultivators in this competition are restricted to the martial arts stage. Once a cultivator falls outside the stage, it is considered a defeat, and the same applies to contract beasts."
Jian Qingqiu spoke slowly, her gaze shifting to Cang Hongxi.
Cang Hongxi immediately understood and nodded, "Indeed, President Jian's words are reasonable."
Huan Chu You's face immediately darkened. These two old guys were shameless!
"The previous academy exchange meetings have never had such rules. You are going too far with this!"
Huan Chu You stood up, his once gentle and kind face now filled with anger.
Ever since he came to Lingyin Academy, he couldn't tolerate the actions of Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxi. Now, Bai Li Hongzhuang was pushed to such an extent just for the honor of Canglan Academy.
He had endured their previous actions, but when it involved Bai Li Hongzhuang, he couldn't remain idle anymore.
When Huan Chu You stood up, there was an uproar among the spectators in the stands.
As the Vice Principal of Canglan Academy, he was now openly stating that this match was unfair. All eyes turned to South Palace Ouyi, wondering how the emperor would react to this.
Xia Zhiqing and the others were excited when they saw Huan Chu You protesting. At least it proved that the Vice Principal was on their side!
Jian Qingqiu and Cang Hongxi hadn't expected Huan Chu You to suddenly break decorum. Logically, in such a situation, Huan Chu You should have endured and swallowed his anger. But what had happened to him?
Rage burned in Huan Chu You's eyes as he witnessed the students of the academy suffering blows and severe injuries for the sake of this so-called academy exchange meeting. He suddenly couldn't understand what he had been persistently pursuing all these years.
The existence of Canglan Academy was meant to cultivate students, and initially, the purpose of the academy exchange competition was merely to motivate the students' cultivation. But at some point, the competition had turned into a battle for interests, sacrificing students for the sake of their own honor. What meaning did this hold?
