Fortunately, this time the draw did not result in students from the same academy facing each other.
"Now, Xia Zhiqing and Nangong Yue'er, please step onto the martial stage!"
Lin Yinghao had a faint smile on his face. Nangong Yue'er was incredibly powerful, while Xia Zhiqing's strength was decent but definitely not a match for Nangong Yue'er.
Because Nangong Yue'er had already reached the Innate Realm!
The second round of the qualifying matches was conducted in a way where the second team's match would take place after the first team had finished, unlike the simultaneous matches in the first round.
Not only that, the martial stage used in the second round of the qualifying matches was larger than the one used in the first round.
"Zhiqing, do your best!"
The cultivators from Canglan Academy cheered and encouraged Xia Zhiqing. Although they knew that Nangong Yue'er was formidable, as long as Xia Zhiqing fought with all her strength and displayed their true abilities, it would be enough.
Xia Zhiqing nodded heavily and said, "I will!"
Nangong Yue'er was faster than Xia Zhiqing and leaped directly onto the martial stage.
However, Nangong Yue'er's next words surprised everyone.
"Baili Hongzhuang, come up here!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze fell on Nangong Yue'er. They had no idea what Nangong Yue'er was up to.
"I want to challenge you!"
Nangong Yue'er emphasized her request. She had originally hoped to be matched directly against Baili Hongzhuang in the second round, but she didn't expect her opponent to be Xia Zhiqing!
With Xia Zhiqing's strength, she was no match for Nangong Yue'er at all. It would only be a waste of time!
She was eager to have a battle with Baili Hongzhuang!
Not for any other reason, but because of the ambiguous relationship between Baili Hongzhuang and Moyun Jue!
Just for this reason, she couldn't let Baili Hongzhuang off the hook.
Lin Yinghao was dumbfounded. What was the Third Princess trying to pull off?
"Nangong Yue'er, your opponent is Xia Zhiqing," Lin Yinghao emphasized.
But Nangong Yue'er remained undeterred. "I know, but I want to challenge Baili Hongzhuang!"
"Nonsense!"
Jian Qingqiu frowned slightly. He had a certain understanding of Nangong Yue'er's mischievous nature.
However, the whole Lingyin Academy relied on the royal family, so he usually turned a blind eye to Nangong Yue'er's antics.
But he didn't expect Nangong Yue'er to dare cause trouble even at the academy exchange competition!
With Nangong Yue'er's strength, she could easily advance to the next round by battling Xia Zhiqing. But Nangong Yue'er insisted on challenging Baili Hongzhuang!
Baili Hongzhuang was the ace of Canglan Academy, and it wouldn't be easy to defeat her.
Yuan Yulong was in a bad mood. He had been punished for blocking the Canglan Academy team from entering the academy earlier, and he had almost been unable to participate in the academy exchange competition.
Just as he arrived at the martial field, he heard Nangong Yue'er's request. Although he didn't know why Nangong Yue'er suddenly acted this way, as Nangong Yue'er's mentor, he had always indulged her.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yulong immediately spoke up, "Principal, the matches were randomly selected in the first place. If Nangong Yue'er has such a request and Baili Hongzhuang is willing to accept, then it's not entirely impossible.
If Baili Hongzhuang doesn't dare to accept, then so be it."
Baili Hongzhuang's eyebrows furrowed slightly. She had never seen Yuan Yulong before, and it was strange that he immediately targeted her upon his arrival!
