Chapter 3227

The Spirit Hall Executive only came to his senses after half a day and immediately announced, "In this match, Skywater Academy is victorious!!"

As soon as the words fell, the audience erupted in amazement...

"No... No way, am I hallucinating? Skywater Academy actually managed to defeat Heaven Dou Royal Academy, that's just unbelievable!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. The overall strength of Skywater Academy is not on par with Heaven Dou Royal Academy, how could they win!"

"Although it's hard to believe, the fact is that Skywater Academy has won, and we can only accept it!"

"Hahahaha, look, I knew that Skywater Academy was holding back in the match against Blazing Fire Academy, and now even Heaven Dou Royal Academy has fallen to their hands!"

"What can I say about this battle, it was beyond everyone's expectations, but it also had to do with the tactics of the Skywater Academy's participants!!"

"Hey, the match is already over, let's not discuss what's possible or impossible, Skywater Academy has already given a satisfactory answer to the previous doubts!"

"I underestimated Skywater Academy before, they are not only beauties but also Soul Masters with great potential!!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, you people, you looked down on Skywater Academy before, and now that they have won, you instantly overturn your previous statements, such quick face-changing!"

"I'm nothing like you all, I have supported Skywater Academy from the beginning, who wouldn't love such contestants with both looks and strength??"

Listening to these discussions, Shui Bing'er and the others on the stage felt the humiliation they had endured dissipate in this moment...

They had proven their strength to everyone present!!

Watching this scene, Bi Bidong couldn't help but smile, "Who would have thought, Skywater Academy turned out to be the biggest dark horse, defeating the Heaven Dou Royal Academy!!"

"His Majesty the Emperor, it seems that your predictions were a bit off, no?"

In response, Xue Ye simply gave her a cold glance...

"Pope, your words are misplaced. Both Heaven Dou Royal Academy and Skywater Academy are under direct management of the royal household, so it doesn't really make a difference which side wins,"

Even though he had a preference for Heaven Dou Royal Academy, that did not mean he objected to another academy's victory!

After all, these academies essentially obeyed the royal household!!

Next to him, Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, "His Majesty is right, since this is a friendly match, the team with stronger overall abilities and better coordination will naturally advance!"

Bi Bidong was somewhat displeased at Ning Fengzhi's sudden interjection, "Oh? Sect Master Ning, does this mean you also had hopes for Skywater Academy??"

She didn't intend to converse with him and was already bothered by his unsolicited involvement in her discussion with Xue Ye!

Ning Fengzhi did not give a direct answer, but beat around the bush, "Pope, does your statement imply that you think the Spirit Hall Golden Generation has a sure victory??"

The Golden Generation of Spirit Hall did have superior talents, and indeed, there were few on the Continent who could surpass them!

But that didn't guarantee victory!

Just like in today's battle, everyone, including himself, thought that Skywater Academy would lose, but the reality was otherwise!

With different strategies, they simply turned the tables!!

Bi Bidong did not deny it this time but said meaningfully, "Sect Master Ning, I have never said that, but one thing is certain!"

"Nearly half of the audience for this match believes the Spirit Hall Golden Generation will win the final championship!"

Xue Ye, not interested in listening further, immediately stood up and said coldly, "Enough, today's match has ended, Pope, you'd better worry about tomorrow's final!"

Immediately afterward, he glanced at Ning Fengzhi, "Sect Master Ning, let's go!"

The latter exchanged a look with Gu Rong and then left the venue together with Xue Ye...

However, to Bi Bidong's surprise, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe remained seated and showed no intention of leaving...

Noticing her gaze, he spoke impassively, "Pope, staring at me like that is somewhat rude, don't you think?"

In his words, there was not a hint of reverence, only a thick sense of disgust...

Bi Bidong didn't get angry but instead scoffed, "Heh heh... My apologies for being presumptuous, but the match has already ended. Why has the Crown Prince not left with Emperor Xue Ye?"

Xue Qinghe's tone grew slightly impatient, "What I do here is none of Your Holiness's concern, is it?"

If it weren't for wanting to check on the situation, he would not want to sit here with the person he despised the most...

Bi Bidong also subdued her enthusiasm and slowly stood up, "Very well, since the Crown Prince has an interest, then take your time watching here!"

"Oh, and if you wish to enter the Pope Hall, you're always welcome!"

"Just remember... don't regret it!"

After saying that, she left without looking back...

Only Xue Qinghe was left alone, silently clenching his fists...

He ground his teeth and muttered, "Bi Bidong..."

...

After returning to the Pope Hall...

Bi Bidong casually asked Yueguan, "Yueguan, have you received any messages from Gui Mei?"

The latter shook his head in denial, "Your Holiness, I have not received any messages from Lao Gui."

"I fear they have already left Martial Soul City, or even gone to another city!"

After a pause, he spoke out of the blue, "By the way, Your Holiness, there is something I'm not sure if I should mention!"

He was afraid that bringing it up might cause displeasure!

Bi Bidong waved her hand, unconcerned, "It's alright, speak your mind!"

Even the biggest issues were trivial to her!

Feeling relieved, Guan Yue proceeded, "It's like this, during the previous few fights, His... Xue Qing... the Crown Prince suddenly left the venue. Curious, I concealed my presence and followed him!"

"I then discovered that his purpose for leaving was to enter the Pope Hall!"

"But rest assured, Your Holiness, he was stopped by the soldiers in charge of guarding before he could enter!"

Bi Bidong's gaze became a tad more serious, "Oh?? Now that's interesting!"

Sneaking into the Pope Hall like a ghost... Could it be that he was there for...

No, that's impossible!

It's much more likely that he was looking for Xu Sheng, who has already left!!

At that thought, a wave of unexplainable anger surged within...

"Hmph, Qian Dao Liu that old coot, indeed doesn't miss a single opportunity, does he!"

But unfortunately for you, your plans are based on the wrong assumption!

Because even I don't know where Xu Sheng is now!

Even less could anyone else know his whereabouts!
