She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement Chapter 219 - I Wish For You to Win

Chapter 219 I Wish For You to Win
On the 98th level, the battle was still ongoing.
Liuli Luoluo, Xuanyuan Chen, and Yin Cong staggered to their feet. As soon as they stood up, they saw Gold Ingot merge with his beast form.
The space in the tower could be infinitely enlarged. As soon as the Taotie Beast appeared, it felt as if the entire space was occupied by the other party. And the height of the three of them standing on the ground were not even as tall as the Taotie Beast’s knees.
The Taotie Beast’s front limbs kicked the ground ten times in a row. With each kick, the color on the Taotie Beast’s body became more intense. After ten kicks, the fur on the Taotie Beast’s entire body became pitch black, like the deep and mysterious night sky.
The Taotie Beast lowered its head and stared at them quietly with its eyes.
Being stared at by that pair of eyes, the three of them froze. Liuli Luoluo realized that she was unable to mobilize the spiritual power in her body.
She had completely become a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Under that pair of beast eyes, Liuli Luoluo and Yin Cong’s bodies were slowly frozen.
Soon, Liuli Luoluo realized that all the blood in her body had stopped flowing. Then, her heart stopped beating. Soon, Liu Li Luoluo lost consciousness.
Boom!
Liuli Luoluo and Yin Cong were sent out of Skysplit Tower.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Chen was the only one in the pagoda who was still gritting his teeth and holding on. He lasted for a full fifteen minutes before the cold that had been attacking him non-stop disappeared.
Xuanyuan Chen knelt on the ground and panted heavily. Gold Ingot looked at him in surprise and sighed. “You’ve improved a lot recently.” He was as impressive as Sheng Xiao when he participated in the tower challenge ceremony. Xuanyuan Chen slowly stood up while pressing his chest. After he stabilized himself, he wiped the blood off the corner of his lips and swallowed the taste of blood in his throat. Then, he said in a low voice, “Professor Gold, please enlighten me!”
“Look, isn’t the third move coming!?!”
The Taotie Beast twisted its head and opened its ferocious mouth.
“Devouring power!”
Taotie represented greed, gluttony, lust, and power. Gold Ingot inherited the Taotie’s gluttonous desire. He did not eat beast tamers, but the mental power of beast tamers.
When Gold Ingot opened its bloody mouth, Xuanyuan Chen could clearly feel his mental strength being devoured bit by bit while he did not even have the strength to fight back. All he could do was push through until it was all over…
“You passed!”
Gold Ingot suddenly regained his human appearance. He stared at Xuanyuan Chen, who had collapsed to the ground. He sighed. “You’re not bad. You’re as capable as Sheng Xiao was back then.”
Xuanyuan Chen was not comforted. Sheng Xiao was only 23 when he challenged the pagoda back then, and he was 29 years old this year. He was far behind Sheng Xiao. After Gold Ingot left, Xuanyuan Chen was sent to the 99th floor.
When Sheng Xiao saw that Xuanyuan Chen had successfully reached the 99th floor, he straightened his posture. It seemed that he was looking forward to Xuanyuan Chen’s success. When Xuanyuan Chen appeared on the 99th floor, the projector screen was suddenly turned off.
“Huh? The projector screen is switched off!”
“Can the assessment scenes on the 99th level not be publicized?”
Unable to see the real-time image of the 99th floor, everyone could only stare at the dusky tower lamp on the top of the tower. If someone succeeded in passing the test, the tower lamp would automatically light up.
Xuanyuan Chen opened his eyes and stared at the starry sky above him. It took him a few seconds to realize that he had reached the 99th floor.
Xuanyuan Chen gritted his teeth and climbed up. He did not see the examiner nor did he see any demon beasts. He could not help but feel shocked. What was the 99th level’s test?
Suddenly, a light lit up in front of Xuanyuan Chen.
Xuanyuan Chen raised his head and saw an old man with narrowed eyes.
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Chen closed his eyes and almost fainted.
The dean stood in the middle of the tower in rough clothing. When he saw the dejected look on Xuanyuan Chen’s face, his smile widened. “Xuanyuan Cheng, the examiner for the 99th floor is me.”
Damn it, after sending away a Taotie Beast, he welcomed another narrowed-eyed monster!
The dean gathered an energy ball in his right hand. At the same time, his gray eyes turned into golden eyes. “Mr. Xuanyuan, you will pass if you can withstand two moves from me!”
Xuanyuan Chen’s pupils dilated when he heard that. His fingers, which were holding the Demon Slaying Saber, were trembling.
Seeing Xuanyuan Chen’s reaction, the dean suddenly sighed.
Hearing this sigh, Xuanyuan Chen raised his head in confusion. He looked at the dean and found that the energy ball in his hand had disappeared. He could not help but feel puzzled.
“Dean…”
The dean saw through his thoughts. He said, “Are you curious why I suddenly stopped attacking you?”
Xuanyuan Chen nodded hesitantly.
The dean said, “That’s because you’ve already lost.”
Xuanyuan Chen’s eyes widened. “How is that possible?! We haven’t even started!” Because he was anxious, Xuanyuan Chen’s face flushed with anger. Blood boiled in his throat and a trace of blood trickled down the corner of his lips.
The dean placed his hands behind his back and walked towards Xuanyuan Chen.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Chen refused to admit defeat, the dean suddenly asked an irrelevant question. He said, “Do you know how Sheng Xiao reacted when he appeared on the 99th floor and saw me four years ago?
Xuanyuan Chen was dazed for a moment before he shook his head and replied honestly, “I don’t know.”
The dean said, “At that time, his eyes were filled with fighting spirit.”
Xuanyuan Chen was stunned.
The dean raised his right hand and gently tapped the space between Xuanyuan Chen’s eyebrows. He said, “But when you saw me, there was only despair and discouragement in your eyes.”
saw
The dean said earnestly, “Child, you didn’t lose to me. You lost to yourself.”
Xuanyuan Chen’s mind instantly cleared up when he heard this.
“…I…” Xuanyuan Chen lowered his head deeply and said in embarrassment,” I’m ashamed.”
Seeing that he understood everything in an instant, the dean was relieved. “Child, you’re about to graduate. Let me give you a word of advice.”
Xuanyuan Chen hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, “Dean, please speak.” The dean placed his hands behind his waist and looked up at the bright starry sky. He said, “Remember, only when you are confident will you be the real victor.”
“If you believe that you can fly, you can soar through the starry sky.”
“If you believe that you’re invincible, you’ll be invincible.”
Xuanyuan Chen knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times respectfully to the dean. He prostrated on the ground and said with a choked voice, “I, Xuanyuan Chen, will remember your teachings!”
As soon as Xuanyuan Chen finished speaking, he was teleported to the desert.
Sheng Xiao saw Xuanyuan Chen come out. He looked up at the top of the tower. When he saw that the light on the tower was not on, his eyes darkened.
Xuanyuan Chen had actually failed as well.
Xuanyuan Chen stood up and bowed to the professors who had taught him for more than ten years. Then, he strode to Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao quickly stood up. Xuanyuan Chen walked to Sheng Xiao and bowed to him. He said calmly, “I failed. I can’t go to the central tower with you. Senior Sheng, I hope you can successfully break into the tower and win glory for the Divine Realm Academy and the Divine Moon Empire!”
Sheng Xiao bowed to her. “Good luck. I hope we can fight side by side in the future.”
“Alright!”
The graduation and tower challenge ceremony finally ended and the students returned to the academy.
The graduates who graduated successfully had to stay and participate in the graduation party tomorrow night. The 25 students who failed the test had to leave at dawn.
Yu Huang didn’t sleep the entire night. When the sky lit up, she saw the 25 people walk out of the institute with their bags. They stood at the entrance of the institute and kowtowed three times respectfully to the institute. Then, they carried their bags and crossed the iron chain bridge over the Endless River before leaving on a bird.
The dean stood in front of the office window and watched them leave. He only turned around when the bird had flown away.
He was holding a fountain pen in his hand. The pen was of the same design as the one on Sheng Xiao’s chest, but the words on the pen were different. The dean touched the word “Jue” on the cap with his thumb repeatedly. His eyes were slightly red.
There was a tall male figure standing in the middle of the office.
Sheng Xiao noticed that the dean’s eyes were red and felt helpless.
He had already been in the Divine Realm Academy for 15 years. In his impression, the dean was always smiling. This was the first time he had seen the dean reveal his emotions.
The dean soon calmed down. He waved at Sheng Xiao. “Sheng Xiao, come here.”
Sheng Xiao strode to the dean.
The dean placed the fountain pen with the word “Jue” in Sheng Xiao’s chest pocket. He pressed Sheng Xiao’s shoulders and said, “May it protect you. May you win.”
Sheng Xiao nodded. “I will do my best!”
