Chapter 2032: Another Challenge (2/2)

“Leave it up to fate.” The young king arched his chest and proudly said: “Men need to be bold in life. Teacher, do you dare to do it or not?! I, Kong Yelin, am not afraid of death!”

“That’s our representative for you!” A student couldn’t help but praise.

“Alright, what’s the actual bet?” Li Qiye smiled after seeing the confident young king.

He uttered coldly while staring intensely at Li Qiye: “Whoever can go the farthest will be the winner. Of course, the one who dies can only blame themselves for their own lack of skill. But, if the loser were to survive, they must bow nine times to the winner!”

The young king let caution be gone with the wind since he had made his challenge and there was nothing else to worry about. Even if he were to lose and couldn’t stay at the academy from shame, the rest of the world was still vast enough for him. With his power and his father, he could do whatever he wanted in other places.

Moreover, he was confident with his own plans at the seventh layer. He would certainly be able to suppress Li Qiye at that point.

In his mind, even if Li Qiye were to come out alive, the guy would still need to bow down nine times before everyone. He would lose all face and no longer want to stay at the academy.

“Nine bows? Don’t you think that’s too much?” Li Qiye glanced at the ocean then s.h.i.+fted back at the young king.

“Not at all.” The young king sneered: “Didn’t you make Brother Freesky do it? Plus, you’re a teacher, I don’t mind bowing down to you if I lose at all.”

Li Qiye chuckled and nodded: “That’s true, it’s no big deal for a student to bow to a teacher.”

“However, Teacher, if you lose, you would have to bow nine times towards me, that’s a big gesture.” The guy became much more aggressive than before, no longer holding back.

He believed he had the home advantage at Murder PaG.o.da and would do much better compared to Freesky and Rumination. This was a G.o.dsend opportunity that he couldn’t afford to waste.

The unaware students were startled and looked over at Li Qiye. They thought that Six-sword had a good chance of victory or he wouldn’t be spewing such confident rhetoric.

“That’s true, bowing towards a student is very humiliating.” Li Qiye became serious. His demeanor made others think that he was hesitating.

Six-sword boldly pushed on: “Do you dare to bet or not, Teacher? Of course, it’s not too late for you to give up now. Just bow once, in that case.”

He wanted to provoke Li Qiye and lead him into the murderous ocean. As long as Li Qiye was in there, his plan would be working. Having thought of that, his eyes flashed with bloodthirst. He wanted to push it further by killing the guy, no longer just humiliating him.

Everyone knew that in an actual compet.i.tion, he wouldn’t be blamed for Li Qiye’s death because it would be Li Qiye’s own fault for being incapable. The academy wouldn’t necessarily reprimand him under such circ.u.mstances.

“Jinsheng, should I do it?” Li Qiye laughed and asked the old man.

Jinsheng glanced at the young king and said: “Teacher, you are a paragon, a majestic mountain. A little junior can’t get into your sight.”

Jinsheng was actually kindly reminding the young king to back off. After all, he was arrogant just like the guy back during his youth. He understood that provoking Li Qiye was a suicidal endeavor.

“Old man, shut your mouth!” The young king shouted at Jinsheng.

“Jinsheng, looks like he doesn’t get your intent.” Li Qiye clapped and laughed again.
