Chapter 2044: You’ll Accept My Challenge, Right?
“It’s strange how you say you like him but you don’t understand his suffering at all.” Lian Bingmeng gazed at Ning Shu. “You were too aggressive just now.”
“No, I wasn’t. I only whipped Mu Ziqi. I didn’t whip anyone else.” Ning Shu said with a smile. If it hadn’t been for Little Grass, she would’ve lost the battle and might have been burnt to ashes.
How come Lian Bingmeng selectively ignored anything Mu Ziqi did, calling it reasonable, yet said it wasn’t fine when Ning Shu did it.
Whatever you do is right, but when others do the same thing it’s wrong.
“I really can’t get through to you.” Lian Bingmeng shook her head. “I officially challenge you to a fight. Mu Ziqi is my comrade, I have the right to seek justice for him.”
Mu Ziqi was being carried off the ring by a stretcher. Hearing Lian Bingmeng’s words, he stared at her blankly, then smiled at Lian Bingmeng. His eyes even got teary.
Ning Shu: …
“Yue Shuangshuang, now that you’re powerful, you’ll accept my challenge, right?” Lian Bingmeng said.
F–cking crazy!
Ning Shu felt rather speechless.
“Why should I accept your challenge? Lian Bingmeng, are you talking to yourself and living in your own imaginary world?” Ning Shu said irritatedly.
Lian Bingmeng was stunned for a moment. The previous Yue Shuangshuang would never talk to her like this. Sure enough, now that she was strong, she was now a lot more confident.
“I have to seek justice for my comrade. Otherwise, people will think that those in our mercenary team can be bullied by anyone.” Lian Bingmeng’s expression turned cold as she met Ning Shu’s gaze head-on.
“We’re in an academy. This is an academy tournament. When did I bully Mu Ziqi? Didn’t even Mu Ziqi say that it’s unavoidable to make mistakes during competition? Yet you’re now looking for trouble with me because of this. Lian Bingmeng, don’t you think you are looking for trouble without reason right now?
Lian Bingmeng sneered, “I’m making trouble without reason? What I saw was that you used a public stage to avenge private wrongs and deliberately humiliate Mu Ziqi.”
Ning Shu: … The f*ck?
Always so self-centered.
“Are you blind? Didn’t Mu Ziqi do the same thing before?” Ning Shu said impatiently, there was no meaning in getting involved with Lian Bingmeng.
It was like debating whether the chicken or the egg came first.
“Do you think you’re some hero who’s righteously seeking justice for those people? I don’t care about those other people. My heart can only hold my comrades. If anyone hurts my comrade, they must be punished.” Lian Bingmeng’s expression became colder.
“Get out of my way.” Ning Shu no longer wanted to talk to Lian Bingmeng.
“Do you accept my challenge?” Lian Bingmeng blocked Ning Shu’s way without giving an inch.
Ning Shu’s expression was cold and detached, “You’re seriously something.”
“What about you? Is it really fun to pretend like this?” Lian Bingmeng said unexpectedly, “Is it that fun to pretend to be a weakling?”
“I never said that I was weak. Your reputation as a garbage summoner was just a rumor, and so is mine.” Ning Shu said indifferently.
Instructor Wen walked over with a serious face. Instructor Wen had always only been gentle. This was the first time Ning Shu had seen him angry.
“Battles are still going on. Why are you picking battles with others outside of the arena?” Instructor Wen looked at Lian Bingmeng with a displeased expression. “There will definitely be injuries in battles. What are you going on about? Mu Ziqi truly just lost.”
“Instructor…” Lian Bingmeng aggrievedly said when she saw that Instructor Wen was not on her side.
“If you can make it to the top 50, then in the arena, you can fight as you like. Does it look good to block the walkway like this?” Instructor Wen’s voice was very low, making him seem so full of power that others’ hearts trembled.
It shouldn’t be forgotten that this man was one of the strongest summoners. The gentleness was only in his appearance.
