"Bang!" As soon as Luffy finished speaking, He Yi Ming instantly facepalm.
"? ? ?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What the F*** did he say?
A mere Early Stage of Spirit Realm trash...
Said that he wants to 1v9 nine Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters?
(TN: OG it wasn't 1v9 but more like I want fight ten, but I've been playing a ton of LOL recently, so yeah)
"He Yi Ming, your disciple is simply seeking death. Wanting to 1v9 right off the bat, you should really learn how to discipline them!" Gu Feng mocked in a sarcastic tone.
"An Early Stage of Spirit Realm want to 1v9 nine Half-Step Foundation Realm?"
"Am I way too old, or did I just not hear that right?"
"Haha, what a joke! He's way too arrogant!"
....
The higher-ups of Heaven Academy all sneered, and their perception of He Yi Ming's disciples also plummeted.
For them, what they like the most are humble and polite disciples.
And what they hate the most are arrogant and rule-breaking disciples!
After Luffy finished speaking, he bathed in the shock of the audience and was about to become addicted to this feeling.
"Bang!" However, a paper fan suddenly flew over and hit Luffy on the back of his head.
It was He Yi Ming.
He Yi Ming could feel his blood pressure rising!
Stupid Luffy.
The three of you could have joined forces and easily taken down a Half-Step Foundation Realm monster, so why risk it?
Why do you have to F***ing show off/act cool/go for the play of the game!
"Luffy, stop messing around!" Indomitable_Panda grabbed the mic out of Luffy's hand and loudly said.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, my kouhai was speaking nonsense just now...we don't need 9!"
Hearing this, everyone was, please.
That sounds more like it!
Announcing you're going to 1v9 from the get-go! How arrogant!
"Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters are way too weak, even fighting 9 of them at once isn't that much of a challenge! How about we just switch it with a Foundation Realm monster!"
However, Indomitable_Panda's next line made everyone completely speechless.
"? ? ?"
9 Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters are too weak?
You want to fight a Foundation Realm monster?
Are the two of you playing with us?
"Enough, the two of you, this is a test, be serious, and don't mess around!" World Number One Ice Mage was pissed, he grabbed the mic and immediately said.
"I'm sorry everyone, scratch what they just said!"
"Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters are enough, but we have 3 people, so we need three of them, one for each person! This requirement isn't too unreasonable right?" World Number One Ice Mage said seriously.
"Remember to let the strongest one for me!" Luffy hurriedly added on.
Gu Hang's body was trembling all over.
It's the first time in history that someone looks down on Heaven Academy's test so much, and it's the first time someone talks about it like it was some sort of child play!
They're outright disgracing Heaven Academy!
Gu Hang was just about to open his mouth and severely reprimand and revoke Luffy and the other test qualification but...
"Haha, how amusing, Vice President Gu, how about we give them a chance? Since it's their request!" Chief Guest Wang Yue covered her smiled and suggested.
"Yeah, Lord Gu Hang, since they're so arrogant, why not give them a try!"
"Haha, I can't wait to see them covered in blood begging and crying for mercy!"
"Yeah, Lord Gu Hang, if they seek death, why should we stop them!"
...
Many higher-ups of Heaven Academy also joined in on the persuasion.
"If that's the case...ok!" Gu Hang was dissatisfied and overjoyed at the same time.
This was a great opportunity!
Although he wasn't able to immediately revoke He Yi Ming's disciples' qualifications, this was not much worst!
Now no one can say what he's about to do is unfair!
After all, this was He Yi Ming's disciples' request!
"Ok! Since you insist on doing this, then let me satisfy you, someone comes and sends the three Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters, Four-Armed Gorilla, Graphorn King, and Poisonous Flame Lizard into the ring!" Gu Hang sneered.
Weren't you guys arrogant?
Weren't you guys seeking death?
Then let me satisfy you!
These three Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters are the three strongest among all the remaining Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters!
The Four-Armed Gorilla possesses unimaginable strength, stronger than some weaker Foundation Realm human cultivator!
The Graphorn King possesses extremely high attack and defense, except for the weakness of its underbelly, no matter if it physical or magical attack, it could easily tank them and dish out equal amounts of damage!
As for the Poisonous Flame Lizard, it can be considered even more terrifying! Its flames are both incredibly hot and contain extremely deadly poison, the poison can instantly kill weaker Spirit Realm cultivators, while the stronger one can only drop down in agony, completely busted against those without any poison resistance!
"Oh my god, are the three of them really challenging three Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters?"
"Maybe they also know some kind of joint spell?
"Even if they do, that doesn't change anything!"
.....
Whether it is the commoner students or the elite students of Heaven Academy, everyone thought, the three of them were done for!
"Those three idiots! I've never seen someone seeking death like this before!" Qing'er was shocked when she saw this scene, and her gaze toward the three of them was as if she was looking at a corpse.
Nangong Li didn't say a word, she just turned and looked at He Yi Ming.
"He Yi Ming, are you really so confident in your disciples?" Nangong Li softly whispered.
He Yi Ming told himself to calm down, and that this was not that big of a deal.
"Huh...although 1 monster turned into 3, with the combined strength of the three of them, this shouldn't be that big of a problem! So as long as they work together, they can definitely last an hour, their score should also be quite high...." After thinking carefully about it, He Yi Ming feels that their odds of winning are still quite high.
So as long as the players don't do something stupid.................................................
"Are you up to compete?" At this moment, World Number One Ice Mage suddenly said.
"So, what are we competing on?" Both Luffy and Indomitable_Panda were very interested.
"We'll compete on who takes down the Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters the in flashiest/most badass way!" World Number One Ice Mage proposed, and he was confident that he would win.
"Hahaha, I like the sound of that!" Luffy nodded and instantly agreed.
"I accept the challenge!" Indomitable_Panda also agreed.
"I'll choose the Four-Armed Gorilla, it seems like it could take quite a beating!"
"Then I'll choose the largest Poisonous Flame Lizard!"
"In that case, I guess I'm left with our old pal the Graphorn King!"
The three of them quickly selected their opponents.
Almost at the same time, the Half-Step Foundation Realm monsters were also led into the ring by the staff.
"The three of you, this is your final warning, if you want to give up now...."At this time, the staff couldn't bear to watch the three of them die, came over, and kindly reminded them.
However, Luffy snatches the mic right away.
"Everyone listen! I'm Luffy and now I'll put the words out!"
"Against this kind of trash mob, One Punch is more than enough, if I can't kill it in one punch, I'll write my name backward from now on!"
Luffy proudly announces, arrogant AF.
"PFFFT!" He Yi Ming just took a sip of tea and sprayed it all over the place.
"Luffy..." He Yi Ming could already feel his blood pressure quickly rising.
"One punch kill?" Everyone was shocked.
However, they could still barely accept it.
After all, before Luffy indeed launched a punch that rivals a Foundation Realm cultivator! In theory, there was indeed hope!
It's just that a Half-Step Foundation Realm monster was not like a motionless strength tester, that will wait there motionlessly for you to attack!
But this was not the end.
World Number One Ice Mage grabbed the mic and spoke again.
"I declare that if I take even a single step against this Half-Step Foundation Realm monster, it's my lost!" World Number One Ice Mage's words were full of determination and confidence.
"? ? ?" World Number One Ice Mage's words shocked everyone again.
WTF is this idiot saying?
What, are you saying that the Half-Step Foundation Realm monster will miraculously die right in front of you?
Indomitable_Panda saw this scene and thought about it.
He lacks Luffy's insane burst damage.
Nor does he have World Number One Ice Mage mastery over spells!
Then what could he do?
So Indomitable_Panda start stripping until only his trousers were left.
Then, he took out a small palm-size knife.
"? ? ?" The staffs were stunned.
WTF is this guy doing?
